Linux Device Driver Development Kit (DDK) Free

It is a cd image that contains everything that a Linux device driver author would need in order to create Linux drivers, including a full copy of the O'Reilly book, "Linux Device Drivers, third edition" and pre-built copies of all of the in-kernel docbook documentation for easy browsing. It even has a copy of the Linux source code that you can directly build external kernel modules against.

Running Windows Under Linux Ubuntu 7.04/7.10

This method also works perfectly under Ubuntu 8.04

QEmu can run an OS inside another OS - for example, Windows under Linux. QEmu uses kqemu, an acceleration driver included in Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn to run Windows at usable speed.

Note: KQEMU will not work under Ubuntu 10.04. See KQEMU page for more info

Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn also includes a new version of rdesktop that can be used to start individual desktop apps from the VM on your normal desktop. See SeamlessVirtualization. This also works in Ubuntu 7.10 Gusty Gibbon.

Note: Most computers purchased since 2006 support VT or Pacifica, technologies that provide hardware support for virtualization. To see if your system includes these technologies, run the following:

grep -E '^flags.*(vmx|svm)' /proc/cpuinfo
