This is a brief walk-through of installing Ubuntu Hardy Heron (I used the release candidate, see the previous post) with a LUKS encrypted LVM partition, and preparing it for snapshot backup (explained below). You will need the “alternate†installer for this (ie. not the “desktop†Live CD).
This guide is targeted for people who want to use extended desktop mode on two outputs.
Once install, Firefox and Thunderbird will display notification message like "new mail received", "download complete" using the LibNotify library. By using this library, Firefox and Thunderbird address the new Notification guide line of Ubuntu 9.04
