I used to call this installation my WebEx environment. WebEx has a requirement for a 32-bit Java installation. But, I found a few more needs for a 32-bit Java/browser such as a Juniper VPN.
Basically, I just did a variation on my older post about WebEx.
Here’s how I set it up:
When you download files or copy them between locations, there is always a chance that something won’t copy correctly. The larger the file, the larger the chance of something getting messed up. Creating a check sum on the file is a great way to check to make sure that everything adds up before and after the copy.
This post will explore the two tools, and give you a quick little intro on how to use them.
SQL Developer is another tool that I have found very helpful. I have been toying with my own SQL Access tool, but SQL Developer is much more full featured.
Update: I have a new post with notes for installing SQL Developer 4.0 on Ubuntu 13:10 — Fixing SQL Developer 4.0.
Here’s how I installed it:
Installing Java was pretty straightforward and easy this go-around. Since the runtime was so easy, we’ll let this post go through installing all the different pieces for a complete development environment: Eclipse, Android SDK, JavaFX SDK, etc.

One the requirements for my laptop is to be able to edit Microsoft Office documents. LibreOffice works quite well and was installed by default, but when exchanging complex documents with other Office users, Microsoft Office has no substitute.
So, my solution is to run Office using wine. I have used winetricks in the past to install Linux, but that didn’t work this time. This time a project called Play on Linux came through for me.
Here’s what I did…
I see my computer as a tool. It helps me accomplish all kinds of tasks. I would be remise if I didn’t use it for the most important task of all: building a relationship with my Savior. I just wish I could be disciplined enough to use it for this task more!

Today, VMware prompted me to download and install the latest new version, 4.0.3. I always like staying at the latest and greatest, so I gave it a show. It turned into a little more work than I expected, so I thought I would blog my experience.
This is part of my install/configuration notes for my latest Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise Pangolin) installation. I use VMware with my PeopleSoft development and testing, so it is very important for me to get it working.
Here’s what I did…
I just installed Ubuntu 12.04 on my main laptop. Clicking the buttons to walk through the Ubuntu install wizard is only the tip of the iceberg. Now comes the job of installing all of the programs and tools to make it what you want.
Read on to see what I did first with my new installation…
Wow! Time has flown! I think I was still trying to get Ubuntu 11.10 working. Now, Ubuntu 12.04 is out, and the name for 12.10 is chosen (Quantal Quetzal). Where have I been?
This article is what woke me up:

As a heads up, I have Pangolin installed. Stay tuned for more posts on Ubuntu 12.04…
