I have recently been developing my webapp using a chromebook. Many of the technologies from the framework I am using require an intel chip. Chromebook has some quirks when developing, I'm hoping to flesh some of those out.
I am using crouton which has proven to be amazing. One issue I have run into however is running services/daemons/servers on the chroot that crouton provides.
If you've never installed mongodb, you may have some issues with permissions and file directories which you will need to resolve. Simply create the missing directories, and chmod The appropriate folder.
Recently I found this link in the wiki:
If you have tried via the ui to enable natural scrolling, and that doesn't work, check this out. Open synaptics settings with your favorite editor with sudo priveleges.
sudoedit /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-synaptics.conf
Navigate to the section "InputClass" Identifier "touchpad catchall"
Option "VertScrollDelta" "-55"
Option "HorizScrollDelta" "-55"
Save and reboot.
If you wanna play around with the speed of scroll change -55 to whatever works best for you. You can get an idea by changing the ScrollDeltas for each of these using synclient. (doesn't require reboot).
synclient VertScrollDelta=-55
synclient HorizScrollDelta=-55
- Though, -111 is a little slow for me, I changed it to -51 for both
VertScrollDelta, andHorizScrollDelta
