1.List & find the usb serial device

Bus 008 Device 002: ID 067b:2303 Prolific Technology, Inc. PL2303 Serial Port

Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub

2.Attach the device to tty
#sudo modprobe usbserial vendor=0×067b product=0×2303

3.Confirm it is attached.
#dmesg
[191526.757949] usbcore: registered new interface driver usbserial
[191526.757961] USB Serial support registered for generic
[191526.757985] usbcore: registered new interface driver usbserial_generic
[191526.757987] usbserial: USB Serial Driver core
[191526.778577] USB Serial support registered for pl2303
[191526.778606] pl2303 8-2:1.0: pl2303 converter detected
[191526.790285] usb 8-2: pl2303 converter now attached to ttyUSB0
[191526.790297] usbcore: registered new interface driver pl2303
[191526.790299] pl2303: Prolific PL2303 USB to serial adaptor driver

The node is ttypUSB0

4.Set up seral port
#minicom -s
+—–[configuration]——+
| Filenames and paths |
| File transfer protocols |
| Serial port setup |
| Modem and dialing |
| Screen and keyboard |
| Save setup as dfl |
| Save setup as.. |
| Exit |
| Exit from Minicom |
+————————–+

Select Serial port setup

+———————————————————————–+
| A – Serial Device : /dev/ttyUSB0 |
| B – Lockfile Location : /var/lock |
| C – Callin Program : |
| D – Callout Program : |
| E – Bps/Par/Bits : 115200 8N1 |
| F – Hardware Flow Control : No |
| G – Software Flow Control : No |
| |
| Change which setting? |
+———————————————————————–+
type a & put node name “/dev/ttyUSB0″ which came from step 3

Once it is done, you’ll get a shell from the device through serial connection.

Now you’re all set.

If you want to quit minicom, press CTRL+”a”, and press “x”, and select “yes” in the dialog.
You’ll be back to your original shell.

Just want to change uid itself.

For example, my uid is “user1″, I’d like to keep my configuration, home directory, etc, but I don’t like how it sounds.
Let’s say I want “avatar” instead of “user1″.

You can use “usermod -l “.

#usermod -l user1 avatar

Windows default background color code

02/04/2010

I wanted to change background color of my Ubuntu system to Windows default background color, blue.

So I googled and found how to do that.

1. Open registry editor.
Start > Run > regedit

2. Find registry key.
HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Colors

3. Check the value out in RGB format
Value name: Background
Value data: 0 78 152 (R G B format)

Yes, that’s my favorite color code.
