Note: if you need your .htaccess to keep working with HTTPS, enable them in /etc/apache2/sites-available/default-ssl

Example: make /home/jerome/a_site available at http://localhost:8091

• add new port in /etc/apache2/ports.conf

Listen 8091

• add new site in /etc/apache2/sites-available

cp default new_site

In new_site:

• change <VirtualHost *:80> to <VirtualHost *:8091>
• change two occurrences of /var/www to /home/jerome/a_site

• enable new site

cd /etc/apache2
sudo ln -s sites-available/new_site sites-enabled/new_site

• restart Apache

sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

• test: http://localhost:8091

lsb_release -a

or

cat /etc/lsb-release

uname -r

cat /proc/cpuinfo

sudo hdparm -i /dev/sda1

sudo lshw

The default ffmpeg (installable via Synaptic) can't convert audio to MP3 (audio format for FLV). A solution is to install ffmpeg from Medibuntu repositories.

• add Medibuntu repositories: Medibuntu
• install ffmpeg from Medibuntu with Synaptic
• install system updates

Example:

ffmpeg -i movie.avi -ar 22050 -ab 8 -qscale 6 -r 15 -s 320x240 -f flv  movie.flv

If it doesn't work, look there.
