Create a openVPN server on Google Cloud Platform to connect to your Google Cloud network using openVPN and/or to route your internet traffic through the VPN (Road Warrior Scenario)
This was tested on a ThinkPad P70 laptop with an Intel integrated graphics and an NVIDIA GPU:
lspci | egrep 'VGA|3D'
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Device 191b (rev 06)
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GM204GLM [Quadro M3000M] (rev a1)
A reason to use the integrated graphics for display is if installing the NVIDIA drivers causes the display to stop working properly.
In my case, Ubuntu would get stuck in a login loop after installing the NVIDIA drivers.
This happened regardless if I installed the drivers from the "Additional Drivers" tab in "System Settings" or the ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa
in the command-line.

I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 and I'm following the Debian/Ubuntu way of dealing with config files. I presume you know how to work with sudo and such | |
- Install last stable version of WordPress (in my case 3.6) with Subversion into /opt/wordpress/3.6 | |
- create a symlink /opt/wordpress/stable ==> /opt/wordpress/3.6 | |
- create a directory sites in /var/www/sites | |
- create a directory specific for your site using the domain name e.g. /var/www/sites/example.com | |
- create a directory wp-content in /var/www/sites/example.com | |
- create a directory wordpress in /etc | |
- create a directory named as you site's domain name, e.g. in /etc/wordpress | |
- copy from /opt/wordpress/stable/wp-config-sample.php to /etc/wordpress/example.com/wp-config.php |
