I was able to install alpha 14 on my VPS. But I cannot install it on my laptop. I am running Karmic and am a linux noobie, so I know there is some pre-install config that escapes me. Any ideas what might be tripping me up?
machinename is devdan
/etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 devdan localhost.localdomain localhost
Other than this, I don't get it.

Without retracing my steps to confirm, I believe the only thing I changed that made it work was to add the following line to /etc/hosts.allow.
mysqld : 127.0.0.1 : ALLOW
