Hello I am doing some recreational Bitcoin mining on my Ubuntu Laptop, and got CPUMiner 1.0.2 to work with Bitcoin.cz following this tutorial:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=82821.0

Just out of curiosity, how would I set it up to Solo mine?

Just set up bitcoind to solve blocks.

It's a complete waste of your money, and probably a fire hazard, but go wild.

It doesn't matter what miner you use. 

You still have to get your bitcoind/bitcoinQT set up to serve as a server (node) to solo mine.

It's just a couple of entries into a file that the program reads when it initializes, and then it's a server.

From that point you can mine solo with any getwork miner you like from your own node.

Every miner has to have a node.  If you use your own it's solo mining, if you use someone else's, it's a pool.

Does that make more sense?

There are a TON of tutorial threads for this I'm not going to re-write it.  Solo mining is the same process for every bitcoin-derived altcoin I've seen so you might as well sort it out.
