Mapping files into memory

• CreateFile(); or OpenFile();
• CreateFileMapping();
• MapViewOfFile();
  

mmap() combines the functions of CreateFileMapping() and MapViewOfFile()

Nvidia and Opengl doesn't works

libGL error: No matching fbConfigs or visuals found
libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast

Prepare removing

• sudo apt-get purge nvidia* #This will remove your current nVidia drivers
• sudo apt-get install --reinstall xserver-xorg-video-intel libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-dri xserver-xorg-core
• sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg #This should fix Xorg
• sudo update-alternatives --remove gl_conf /usr/lib/nvidia-current/ld.so.conf

After this reïnstall nVidia software

• sudo apt-add-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa #provides the necessary repository
• sudo apt-get update
• sudo apt-get install bumblebee-nvidia nvidia-319 nvidia-settings-319

Fedora/CentOS Change ports of Apache Web Server (httpd)

1) In file /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

Listen 80
Listen 8079

This till your server to listen to the port 8079

2) virtual host file  /etc/httpd/conf.d/vhost.conf

<VirtualHost *:8079>
 DocumentRoot /var/www/html/api_folder
 ServerName example.com
 ServerAlias www.example.com
 ServerAdmin root@example.com 
 ErrorLog logs/www.example.com-error_log
 CustomLog logs/www.example.com-access_log common
</VirtualHost>

This mean when you go to your www.example.com:8079 redirect to
/var/www/html/api_folder

3) Restart the service

$sudo service httpd restart
$systemctl restart httpd.service
