Autocompletion doesn't work while logged as root

When you try autocomplete commands logged as super user with "sudo su" (to install software with apt-get for example), by default this option is unavailable. To enable the autocomplete for root user you need uncomment the last 3 lines in your /root/bash.bashrc file or add them if not exist.

if [ -f /etc/bash_completion ]; then
  . /etc/bash_completion
fi

Now, restart your bash:

$ bash --

Enjoy it!

How to fix Android when developer options are not available for this user

Image
I have an Android One with Oreo version and suddenly my Android rebooted and after that it started to behave strangely: 1) Notification section doesn't work. I can't see notifications from my apps and the arrow and the screw icon to settings access don't work. 2) As I can't access to the notification area, I can't enable Use USB to Transfer Files to access to my phone memory. 3) I can't access to developer mode (I before active it with a lot of taps over Build number). Clicking on developer options just shows developer options are not available to this user. 4) I can't update or install the apps on google play.

This issue is apparently related to a deconfiguration of user accounts. To fix it, you need re-setup the users. As you can't access to the user manager (you are in guest mode ...

Contiki 3.0 on XM1000

Image
In other post, I installer contiki 3.x on xm1000. Now, we going to install contiki 3.0 (the lastest version). First, you need to dowload the lastest code from github: git clone https://github.com/contiki-os/contiki.git Now we need to add xm1000 compatibility to our contiki. Thanks to DMI   for the xm1000 patch. Without it, you will see the following error: make: *** No rule to make target 'obj_xm1000/cc2420.o', needed by 'contiki-xm1000.a'.  Stop. I upgrade his patch with an app to access to the xm1000 sensors. Download it from https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7NXiwmWq7jCb3ROSFZZSWliMnc/view?usp=sharing Now, extract it into contiki folder: tar xzvf xm1000.tar.gz cd xm1000 cp -R * $YOUR_CONTIKI_PATH Go to the apps folder and execute an script that I create to automate the process: cd $YOUR_CONTIKI_PATH/platform/xm1000/apps/sensors ./install.sh Enjoy it!
