A clean way to install Intel C++ Compiler 11 on Ubuntu Hardy
Written by Han

I often need to do write some numerical codes, usually for solving differential equations, in C/C++. The gcc/g++ compiler usually fits my needs, but sometimes when the computational time is very important, I often use the Intel C++ compiler(ICC), which is free for academic uses. Today I got an email from Intel saying that ICC Ver.11 has been released, so I thought it's time to upgrade from the old version 10.1 on my Ubuntu Hardy machine.Write Comment (6 comments)

Execute script before suspend/after resume using pm-utils in Ubuntu Hardy

Suspend/resume works flawless on my Thinkpad T61p running Ubuntu Hardy 64-bit after I did some minor changes described in this article, in fact suspend-to-ram/resume works so well that I only reboot the system once every 2-3 weeks. Using suspend-to-ram/resume saves a lot of hassles but it could also cause some additional problems. For example, I have a samba file server in the local network at home, if I mount the shared directory on my laptop, suspend, and then resume when I get to office, the system can no longer find the file server and it would cause some problem. In order to solve this problem, I need to setup the laptop so that it would automatically unmount the samba directory before the machine goes into suspend.
