Easiest way is to use latexmk from repository
In texworks latexmk needs to be setup. A guide can be found here:
http://code.google.com/p/texworks/wiki/AdvancedTypesettingTools#latexmk
In texworks go to edit->preferences->typesetting
under “processing tools” add latexmk and add teh arguments found in the link above (repeates here):
-e
$pdflatex=q/pdflatex $synctexoption %O %S/
-pdf
$fullname
You need to add them one at a time
To get pgfplots you can use the ppa by johannes Reinhardt
ppa:johannes-reinhardt/ppa
but the newers build of pgfplots is for lucid so if you are on a newer ubuntu you need to change the release name from e.g. precise to lucid in the software manager. Another way is to manually add
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/johannes-reinhardt/ppa/ubuntu lucid main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/johannes-reinhardt/ppa/ubuntu lucid main
to /etc/apt/sources.list
and to get the key by:
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 5FBD6912
now you can apt-get update and install pgfplots

test by running
java -version
Following this worked:
http://askubuntu.com/questions/94754/how-to-enable-hibernation-in-12-04
create/edit /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/com.ubuntu.enable-hibernate.pkla with:
sudo gedit /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/com.ubuntu.enable-hibernate.pkla
and insert
[Re-enable hibernate by default]

After messing with Xorg.conf I could no longer login on my usual account. The guest account however still was able to login and I could login through terminals (Alt – Ctrl – F1).
The problem got fixed when I deleted:
~/.Xauthority
and rebooted
To prevent script or command from terminating when user logs out use
nohup COMMAND
output is directed to nohup.out in home directory
the utility
iftop
seems to be doing a pretty good job monitoring network trafic
use rsync to backup content and ensure that files deleted on source is not deleted on destination but copied to backup directory
example
rsync --verbose --progress --stats --compress --recursive --times --perms --links --delete --backup --backup-dir=../backup\ of\ deleted\ content/ --exclude=backup-dir/ rsync\ source/ rsync\ dest/current\ nas\ content/
The –exclude=backup-dir/ is properly not needed
If you are not interested in moving deleted files from the source to a backup directory but just want to ensure that files that have been transferred one from the source to destination are not deleted on a subsequent execution of the rsync script then remove all with backup and the flag –delete
e.g.
rsync --verbose --progress --stats --compress --recursive --times --perms --links rsync\ source/ rsync\ dest/
rsync options
to get rsync to report progress: –verbose –progress –stats
if copying over network use compression and secure transfer: –compress –rsh=/usr/bin/ssh
tell rsync to copy recursively: –recursive
keep file timestampts: –times
keep permissions: –perms
copy symbolic links: –links
instruct rsync to delete files on the remote location that isn’t present on the source: –delete
to exclude files by a patterns: –exclude “<exclude patterns>” (eg. –exclude “*.bak”) Additional patterns can be specified by adding another –exclude parameter
example command:
sudo rsync –verbose –progress –stats –compress –recursive –times –perms –links /home/thomas/Ph.D/sommerskole/ /media/KBM_BioSysTek/tgi/Storage\ Filer\ findes\ ikke\ andre\ steder/sommerskole/
to copy all files and folders in …Ph.D/sommerskole to …Storage\ Filer\ findes\ ikke\ andre\ steder/sommerskole/
sudo is necessary in this example to write to /media
To instruct rsync to remove files from the source that have been sucessfully transfered add: –remove-source-files
rsync man page states this about –remove-source-files: sender removes synchronized files (non-dir)
using –remove-source-files have not been tested
EDIT: –remove-source-files have been tested with
sudo rsync –verbose –progress –stats –compress –recursive –times –perms –links –remove-source-files /home/thomas/Ph.D/sommerskole/ /media/KBM_BioSysTek/tgi/Storage\ Filer\ findes\ ikke\ andre\ steder/sommerskole/
All files are removed but directories remain
