As embedded systems grow more complex, developers are integrating full-fledged operating systems into them. Linux is an especially attractive option: it supports virtually all hardware architectures and many peripherals, scales well, offers full source code, and requires no royalty payments. However, building custom versions of Linux for new embedded systems has traditionally been difficult. The Yocto Project simplifies and streamlines every step of the process -- and this expert primer will help you make the most of it. An indispensable companion to the official documentation, it offers in the trenches insights you won't find anywhere else. Leading embedded systems developer Rudolf Streif gives you a solid grounding in the basics, then guides you through more advanced topics -- ranging from building board support packages to managing compliance. You'll master the Yocto Project toolbox by working through the entire development lifecycle on a realistic project: a distributed home automation system consisting of multiple embedded devices with diverse functionality, all communicating via networking infrastructure.As you use Poky and the OpenEmbedded Core metadata layer to create a custom embedded Linux distribution, you'll master all this, and more: * Setting up your build environment * Using Application Development Toolkit (ADT) to integrate with the powerful Eclipse development workbench * Utilizing the Poky Build System and its HOB graphical frontend * Laying out system components, including structure, directories, and files * Using Bitbake Task Executor and its recipes to build entire Linux distros, including toolchains * Running basic builds for emulated targets * Custoimizing Linux systems, adding packages, configuring kernels, and developing board support packages (BSP) * Including your own software packages with image targets * Maintaining a common software base while supporting different CPU architectures and hardware configurations * Managing licensing and compliance, including tracking licenses, filtering non-conformant licenses, and enabling commercial code

The open source saga has many fascinating chapters. It is partly the story of Linus Torvalds, the master hacker who would become chief architect of the Linux operating system. It is also the story of thousands of devoted programmers around the world who spontaneously worked in tandem to complete the race to shape Linux into the ultimate killer app. Rebel Code traces the remarkable roots of this unplanned revolution. It echoes the twists and turns of Linux's improbable development, as it grew through an almost biological process of accretion and finally took its place at the heart of a jigsaw puzzle that would become the centerpiece of open source. With unprecedented access to the principal players, Moody has written a powerful tale of individual innovation versus big business. Rebel Code provides a from-the-trenches perspective and looks ahead to how open source is challenging long-held conceptions of technology, commerce, and culture.

The "Ubuntu 11.04 Desktop: Applications and Administration" covers the Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty Narwhal) release, focusing on applications and administrative tools. The emphasis here is on what users will face when using Ubuntu, covering topics like installation, applications, software management, the Ubuntu desktops (Unity, GNOME, and KDE), shell commands, network connections, and system administration tasks. Ubuntu 11.04 introduces several new features, as well as numerous smaller modifications. It is a short-term support release. The Ubuntu desktop with the new Unity interface is examined in detail, along with the Ubuntu Classic desktop, which uses GNOME 2.3. Unity uses a Launcher and a Dash (dashboard) to manage access to applications and devices. The Kubuntu desktop, which uses KDE, provides a very different interface using plasma containers to support the panel, menu, desktop, configuration tools, and plasmoid applets. Changes include and the new Unity interface with launcher and dash, refinements to the Ubuntu Software Center, Ubuntu One setup and configuration, the Banshee music and media player, LibreOffice (replacement for OpenOffice), Firefox 4 with syncing, and the new time and date application. Ubuntu 11.04 provides improvements to the Software Center, Ubuntu One setup and configuration, and the installation procedure. Banshee is the new default music player. Advanced components are also examined such as the GRUB 2 boot loader, Computer Janitor for removing unused software, PulseAudio sound configuration, and Disk Utility (Udisks) for storage device configuration and information (SMART).
