ScrollKeeper is a cataloging system for documentation on open systems. Hardly anyone ever uses it and it takes ages every time you install anything. Disable it and your installs will fly! Finally add a diversion to stop dpkg from overwriting your changes.
sudo mv /usr/bin/scrollkeeper-update /usr/bin/scrollkeeper-update.real
There are various methods that will help you make better use of the Cloudbook's small screen. One of the most important is being able to move windows that are too large to fit on the screen at once. To move a hidden part of the window into view, click and drag with the left mouse button on any part of the window while holding down the ALT key. However, you won't be able to drag windows so the top of the window is above the top of the screen. To fix that, enter the following in a terminal window:
gconftool-2 --set /apps/compiz/plugins/move/allscreens/options/constrain_y --type bool 0

To fully appreciate Nginx, the web server, it helps to understand Batman, the comic book character.
Batman is fast. Nginx is fast. Batman fights crime. Ngine fights wasted CPU cycles and memory leaks. Batman performs well under pressure. Nginx, for its part, excels under heavy server loads.
But Batman would be almost nothing without the Batman utility belt.

ScrollKeeper is a cataloging system for documentation on open systems. Hardly anyone ever uses it and on the AAO's slow SSD it takes ages every time you install anything. Disable it and your installs will fly! Finally add a diversion to stop dpkg from overwriting your changes.
sudo mv /usr/bin/scrollkeeper-update /usr/bin/scrollkeeper-update.real
sudo ln -s /bin/true /usr/bin/scrollkeeper-update
sudo find /var/lib/scrollkeeper/ -name \*.xml -type f -exec rm -f '{}' \;
sudo dpkg-divert --local --divert /usr/bin/scrollkeeper-update.real --add /usr/bin/scrollkeeper-update
Audio Driver -- Out of the box, the default Ubuntu 8.04.1 install on everex leaves you without functioning microphones or headphone jack sensing. Follow the steps below and you should be able to get them working without too much trouble.
Open a terminal window and type:
sudo apt-get install build-essentialThis will ensure you have the tools to compile your new sound architecture. Leave it open, you'll need it again soon.
Open up your web browser and download the latest ALSA Development Release (alsa-driver-1.0.17) from the ALSA Project. Save it to the desktop.
Back in the terminal, type:
cd ~/Desktop
cd alsa*
./configure --with-cards=hda-intel
make
sudo make install
The sound drivers install to the wrong place, so next you'll type the following commands. If you're using a different version of the kernel, put that in place of 2.6.24-19-generic:
cd /lib/modules/2.6.24-19-generic
sudo cp -a kernel/sound/* ubuntu/sound/alsa-driver/
Finally, you'll have to tell the system to use the new drivers. In terminal, type:
sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base
This will bring up a text editor. Scroll to the bottom of the file and add the line:
options snd-hda-intel model=laptop
Reboot. Your sound should work from this point on. You can configure your input levels if you'd like, using the command line program alsamixer.

Another option is minimal cd-image https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
I have spoted it in the fullcircle article

Testing on qemu/kvm
In my case in have installed JEOS on an qemu virtual machine then i followed this tutorial
http://www.peopix.com/cai-gui-lxde-cho-ubuntu-server/
http://lxde.org/wiki/Ubuntu
Only install the base system. Then, add lxde repository, and do this:
I have added
$sudo vi /etc/apt/sources.list.d/lxde.list
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/lxde/ubuntu hardy main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/lxde/ubuntu hardy main
$sudo apt-get install xorg
$sudo apt-get install lxde
$startx
voila minimal deskop and space used is ~ 400M , it doesn even needs compression
I have installed flamerobin after that , but still i have an bug with window drawing , if i open an window
let's say flamerobin , it goes to the bottom of the screen slowly
TO DO:
Sometimes you want a bare-minimum LiveCD that you can use as a base for other projects. Creating one on Ubuntu is a rather big pain. GUI tools like ‘Reconstructor’ or ‘Ubuntu Customization Kit’ are meant to modify the existing install/Live CD’s, and don’t allow you to really strip down the CD to the bare minimum.
Debian has a project called live-helper which allows you to do just that with a debian distribution. This is also included in Ubuntu Hardy, but it doesn’t -quite- work out of the box. However, with the following small changes, you can make it work. I’ve just create a 77MB minimal hardy boot CD, and it works like a charm.
