You want to develop on your new shiny Nexus 7 and

adb devices

keeps giving you

???????? device

oprn your rules file

gksu gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules

probably you will see following line (if you already configured your Galaxy nexus) If not add it to the file, just in case

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="04e8", ATTR{idProduct}=="6860", MODE="0666", OWNER="YOUR_USER_ID"

Now we should get the idVendor and idProduct from the Nexus 7. Connect it to your computer and

lsusb

you will see something like

Bus 001 Device 013: ID 18d1:4e42 Google Inc.

we need this two values

paste this string with proper values to 51-android.rules

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="18d1", ATTR{idProduct}=="4e42", MODE="0666", OWNER="YOUR_USER_ID"

Save the file. Do the

sudo service udev restart

Now run

adb devices

you should see your device

[SOLVED] Ubuntu: Fixing messed up screen resolution

If you messed up with your display resolution try this:

To configure the monitor and display adapter, you need to re-configure 
your Xorg server. To do that, first backup your xorg.conf file by 
executing the following command:

   # sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf_backup

then, stop X by executing the following command (this will put you to 
text only mode):

   # sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop

You can do the whole X configuration process by executing:

   # sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

Once you have re-configured Xorg,  start GNOME again by executing this 
command:

   # sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start

[SOLVED] Chrome: How to switch the User agent of the browser?

you can pass the user agent string in the command line

for example, this is how to make chrome report itself as IE8.0 on my machine
C:\Users\XXXX\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe --user-agent="Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.0; Trident/4.0; Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1) ; .NET CLR 3.5.30729)"

so basically just add --user-agent="what ever you want to impersonate to" to the target in the shortcut to chrome
and launch chrome using that shortcut!
