Here is how you can install the TaskFreak! System:

# Get the Taskfreak bundle from http://www.taskfreak.com/original
tar xzf /tmp/taskfreak-multi-mysql-0.6.tgz -C /var/www
mv /var/www/taskfreak-0.6.4/ /var/www/taskmanagement

Then create the database:

echo "CREATE DATABASE taskfreak;" | mysql -u root -p
echo "GRANT all ON taskfreak.* TO 'taskfreak'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'passwordXYZ';" | mysql -u root -p
## kann auch dann über das Web gemacht werden:
# mysql -u taskfreak -pPASSWORD taskfreak < /var/www/taskmanagement/install/mysql.init.sql

Save the new setup for the database and the user to the config.php and delete the install directory:

remapping the Command and Option key

If you use a non-Apple external USB keyboard you will notice that the Windows key represents the ⌘ Command Key and the Alt key represents the ⌥ Option key. To invert this key mapping, open the System Preferences → Keyboard → Modifier Keys → Unknown external keyboard and make the changes.

Bind Home and End key of external keyboards to usefull actions

Edit the default keybindings file ~/Library/KeyBindings/DefaultKeyBinding.dict (create the directory and / or the file if they’re not already there).

wget -q http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian/sun_vbox.asc -O- | sudo apt-key add -

and delete the following line from my /etc/apt/sources.list:
