Backtrack5 Configuration Overview

 

After one afternoon, I finally loaded BT5 into my mobile hard drive,

 

[Chinese]

Install Chinese language support and system software tools:

Apt-get install synaptic (new) language-pack-gnome-zh language-support-zh gnome-system-tools language-selector gnome-utils (Environment tool) tsclient (terminal servo) vinagre (Remote Desktop) update-manager software-center

After the installation is complete, reboot, set the system menu language and the like in the system management language support, and then install ibus as the input method, however, it seems that BT5 is very powerful, that is, it has never encountered any garbled code after it is directly installed!

Then on the BT5 with Firefox4.0.1 culture, under the premise of network download Chinese language: http://stage.mozilla.org/pub/fuse installed after restarting FF, and then enter about: config, change general. useragent. after the locale option is zh-CN, restart FF to complete the culture in the menu.

In addition, I would like to remind you of some small software required by Ubuntu daily, because BT5 is not installed by default. This is annoying!

Apt-get install gconf-editor gdebi compiz fusion icon

The second gdebi interface is used to provide a simple gui for deb installation. If you do not install this interface, you can only run dpkg. If you double-click the deb file, you will be prompted to select the open mode, however, I cannot find a proper method to open the file. Isn't that great ?!

For special effects and so on, I will not talk much about it. But after installing compiz, remember to add compiz to the system startup. Otherwise, the special effect will disappear next time.

[Graphics card]

Next, install the graphics card driver. If you find the driver by installing the hardware driver like in Ubuntu, the system will prompt that there is no dedicated driver, drivers such as nvidia-current that can be found in the source cannot be installed properly because the kernel is too new. At this time, it is better to download the driver from the official website. What I found is: the NVIDIA-Linux-x86-270.41.06.run can support most graphics cards. As for the installation, do not use startx after login is installed. Simply run and install login shell!

[Network]

Let's talk about the network connection problem. To enable the network connection icon in the taskbar like Ubuntu, We need to install the support for NM, that is:

Apt-get install network-manager.

However, even though the connection icon appears, the options are gray and you will still see the prompt that the network device is not hosted. This is due to the conflict between the two network management solutions in Linux: this solution is as follows:

Change managed = false in/etc/NetWorkManager/nm-system-settings.conf to = true and restart:

/Etc/init. d/networking restart.

However, if you are careful, you can still find that there are still problems, that is, in the drop-down list of the network, there is not a familiar Auto eth0 in Ubuntu, but a lot of permanent wired connections for ifupdown, you cannot edit it. The solution is as follows:

Modify/etc/dbus-1/system. d/NetworkManager. conf and/etc/dbus-1/system. d/nm-applet.conf to display:

<Policy context = default>

<Deny own = "org. freedesktop. NetworkManager"/>

<Deny send_destination = "org. freedesktop. NetworkManager"/>

<Deny send_interface = "org. freedesktop. NetworkManager"/>

</Policy>

Change "deny" to "allow", and restart "restart:

/Etc/init. d/restart

Stop NetWorkManager:

/Etc/init. d/network-manager stop

Delete interfaces:

Rm/etc/network/interfaces

Restart NetWorkManager:

/Etc/init. d/network-manager start

You can.

PS: Let's talk about the software source problem here! After all, Chinese users say that the default repository is still under great pressure, but we are very fortunate that USTC provides us with a Backtrack synchronization source !!! I personally think it is much faster than the internal source. What makes me feel like =. = #

So echo the following three rows to/etc/apt/sources. lst:

Deb http://mirrors.ustc.edu.cn/backtrack/source revolution main microverse non-free testing

Deb http://mirrors.ustc.edu.cn/backtrack/all revolution main microverse non-free testing

Deb http://mirrors.ustc.edu.cn/backtrack/32 revolution main microverse non-free testing

Spread flowers and flowers ~~~~~! [Sound Card]

After network problems are handled, let's try again!

When the root user logs on, the system does not provide a sound response. clicking the sound slider bar will always show up waiting for the sound system to respond. This is because the sound is controlled by pulseaudio, by default, root does not have the right to access pulseaudio. solution:

First, grant root the right to access pulseaudio:

In System-system management-users and groups, add the root user to the pulse and pulse-access groups, and then add the startup Item:

Add:

Name: Pulseaudio daemon

Command:/usr/bin/pulseaudio

Comment: Start the sound daemon

Then logout and then login again.

Well, the configuration of Backtrack5 is almost the same as that of Backtrack5. If you replace BT5 and say goodbye to the sudo era, it feels good. Although there are many unpleasant problems, however, it is better to solve these problems with your own hands, so proceed with BackTrack!
