Limit apt-get download speed

I wanted to limit apt-get download.
The solution is this:

$ sudo apt-get -o Acquire::http::Dl-Limit=25 upgrade

GWT Hosted Mode on 64 Bit Ubuntu

Here's how I got GWT 1.7 Hosted Mode to work on my 64 bit Ubuntu Karmic Koala 9.10 laptop. These instructions should also work on Jaunty (9.04)

source: from this blog

1. Install ia32-sun-java6-bin:
   
   1. sudo apt-get install ia32-sun-java6-bin

   sudo apt-get install ia32-sun-java6-bin

2. Make sure the default Java installation remains the 64 bit one
   
   1. sudo update-java-alternatives --set java-6-sun

   sudo update-java-alternatives --set java-6-sun

3. Download libstdc++5 for IA32 from Jaunty repos: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/g/gcc-3.3/libstdc++5_3.3.6-17ubuntu1_i386.deb
4. Extract the libstdc++.so.5 file
   
   1. dpkg-deb --fsys-tarfile libstdc++5_3.3.6-17ubuntu1_i386.deb | tar -O --extract './usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5.0.7' > libstdc++.so.5

   dpkg-deb --fsys-tarfile libstdc++5_3.3.6-17ubuntu1_i386.deb  | tar -O --extract './usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5.0.7' > libstdc++.so.5

5. Move the extracted file to /usr/lib32
   
   1. sudo mv libstdc++.so.5 /usr/lib32

   sudo mv libstdc++.so.5 /usr/lib32

6. Run
   
   1. sudo ldconfig

   sudo ldconfig

7. Start GWT:
   
   1. JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/ia32-java-6-sun mvn gwt:run
      

How to change the Ubuntu Loading screen

Run both of these and you will be fine.

sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so
sudo dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-$(uname -r)

Both have to be ran otherwise the change you make with step one will not take effect.
