Epiphany proxy

Laptop yang mondar-mandir dari rumah yang proxyless ke kantor yg proxyful :) epiphany-nya jadi nggak jalan. Untuk mengubah system-wide (gnome dan xfce) proxy, bisa manggil program yang berjudul gnome-network-preferences dari terminal.

Informasi selengkapnya ada di FAQ Epihany.
Changing proxy settings

Epiphany uses the GNOME default proxies. They can be modified (session wide) by using gnome-network-preferences. The corresponding gconf keys are /system/http_proxy/host, /system/http_proxy/port, /system/http_proxy/use_http_proxy and /system/proxy/mode (set to manual).

sylpheed: default account reply

Agak berbelit ketika harus nyuruh Sylpheed menggunakan current account waktu mereply email. Sepertinya ada bug disini. Tapi akhirnya tercapai juga.
Yang perlu diperhatikan adalah Configurations - Edit accouts, account yang harus ada di urutan atas (diganti webmail, default) dan restart Sylpheed (beberapa kali).
Belum posting ke milis Sylpheed.

Double boot

OS di komputer saya aseli. Bisakah saya menggunakan Linux di komputer yang sama?

Bisa.

Dalam proses migrasi, langkah ini diambil untuk 2 manfaat. Alasan utama dari sudut pandang user, adalah untuk pembiasaan selama proses transisi. Alasan kedua, dari sisi pengelola agar instalasi Linux yang dilakukan tidak dihapus ketika user masih ingin menggunakan OS yang lama yang sudah menjadi bagian dari keseharian.

CDMA ZTE baru

Alhamdulillah dibeliin cheap ZTE bundled flexi buat ngegantiin Nokia jadul yg anenanya bisa ditarik dan dibilang bisa buat ngelempar waung langsung koit.
Well, sama2 low end, dari software, masih enakan Nokia. Tapi ada fitur speakernya, so I'm happy ga perlu nempelin HP ke kuping...
Jadi inget dulu waktu ganti dari Hitachi atau apa yg ditukar-tambah 50 ribu juga rela.. Kayaknya gak serius banget sama HP CDMA, karena untuk GSM dengan senang hati pasrah pada Communicator..
Well, namanya juga second gadget. Alhamdulillah, gadgetnya nggak second hand.

Dual Core Atom: Intel D945GCLF2 & Atom 330 Review - PAGE 1

Today, we are doing something different.
Last week, when going through the "what's new" list of a local supplier, I found a gem: an inexpensive mini-ITX motherboard with a dual core Atom processor. This little marvel, the Intel D945GCLF2, does not even show up on the Intel web site - other than being noted as announced during IDF. Interested in what it was capable of, I bought one on the spot.
The idea of very low power processors that are "fast enough" for many applications is starting to catch on. It would be fair to say that Asus took the world by fire with their original Eee PC, and followed it up with the highly successful Eee PC 901 - spawning a whole new "netbook" category of sub-notebook computers with enough processing power for Internet access and every day tasks. Mind you, Asus dropped the ball by not hitting its initially announced $199 Eee PC price tag, however there are now very capable netbooks around $300, like some models of the Acer AspireOne.
Asus then followed by releasing the Eee Box, bringing low powered tiny desktops to the public - sure they won't run Crysis, but they will do office apps and internet browsing, for less money, and while only sipping power compared to gaming boxes, and they can save even more money by avoiding the Microsoft Tax, by shipping a friendly Linux distribution pre-installed on the computer.
Low power computers are in fact enough for most people's use, and make excellent second, third or fourth computers in a family home. After all, how much power do you need to run Open Office and FireFox? Not much.
Here is the specifications for the D945GCLF2, taken from its manual on the supplied CD:
Mini-ITX form factor 6.75"x6.75"
Dual Core Intel Atom processor
one 240 pin DIMM socket supporting 533/667MHz single channel DDR2 up to 2GB in size
Intel 945GC chipset: 82945GC Northbridge with integrated graphics, 82801GB ICH7 Southbridge
GMA 950 integrated graphics
S-Video output via Chrontel CH7021A SDTV/HDTV encoder
RealTek ALC662 codec with HDA and 6 channel audio
SPDIFF header on motherboard
one PCI slot
8 USB2.0 ports (4 on back panel, 4 on two headers)
one IDE interface
two SATA2 interfaces
one VGA connector
one S-Video port
one parallel port
one serial port
PS/2 keyboard and mouse ports
Intel BIOS with SMBIOS support, Rapid BIOS boot, Express BIOS Update
Gigabit Ethernet
ACPI support, Wake on USB, PCI, PS/2, Lan
supports Windows Vista Home Basic, Windows XP Home and Pro, 32 bit and 64 bit
For a small board, it is certainly not short of features!

Intel atom

Ada yg menarik dari intel atom kalau dilihat dari Mobo D945GCLF/B dan
D945GCLF2/B yg onboard Intel Atom 1.6 dengan cache 512k dan 1024k. Begini
reviewnya:

The Intel® Desktop Board D945GCLF is designed to support Internet-centric
computing delivering incredible capabilities for the new flexible Mini-ITX
form factor. Featuring the integrated 45nm Intel® Atom™ processor and the
Intel® 945GC Express Chipset, this board is an energy-efficient solution for
home users as well as for unique vertical market needs. Designed with Intel's
leading edge 45nm Hi-k metal gate processor, this board delivers incredible
opportunities to communicate, listen, watch, play, and learn via Internet
connectivity.

Jadi pasar Atom memang untuk internetan... But with the power management, it's
worth for home users...

ecommerce software

Comparison may easier be recognized by checking monstertemplate.com. It
produces oscommerce (40 p), magento (1 p), CREloaded (13)and zencart (8).

Other (just other) way would be opensourcecms.com and it adds freeway, i
think.

ok then. gotta go.

AMD, Intel dan VIA

Di AAGOS (Asia-Africa Conference on Open Source), ada diskusi kampung yang menraik untuk dicatat, yaitu ttg perbandingan 3 prosesor.
Ringkasnya aja:
AMD support blue ray,
Intel Core2duo (bukan core duo) bisa, tapi make kernel khusus,
VIA bagus di power management, tapi buat multi tasking memble.

Thanks to pembuat logo blankon yg ngasih kesimpulan. Sori, ike lupa nama loe.

Ubuntu - Laserjet 1100

Setelah pusing berhari-hari, ketemu permasalahannya:
  1. Paralel port Lenovo tidak berfungsi (bukan di aplikasi). Ketemunya setelah trace dengan aplikasi plus memindahkan printer ke komputer igosnet.
  2. Untuk printing ke Laserjet 2420 tidak bisa karena beda router dan tidak ada otorisasi utnuk itu (manajemen network di lokasi)

Solusinya bisa 2 kemungkinan:

  1. Printer diganti dengan yang menggunakan usb port (Laserjet 1100 yang ada tidak mempunyai usb port).
  2. Bila masih ada garansi di Lenovo, vendor bisa dimintauntuk mengganti mainboardnya. Penggunaan I/O card jugabisa menyelesaikan masalah ini, tapi rasanya I/O sudah tidak digunakan lagi, dan permasalahan mainboard seperti ini biasanya 'menular' karena terkait dengan material mainboard.

dmg files

HowTo open .dmg file (Mac Disk Images) with Linux
Ever downloaded some nice Wallpaper from a Macpage?
Or icons?
Or anything else?

Well if, you probably know about unstuff, that - sometimes (ok, most times) - will ecompress the .sit.hqx, .sit.bin or .sit.whatever stuffit file. But then, all you gets a f****** stupid useless .dmg file you cannot handle. No Wallpaper, No icons - NOTHING!!! Well, don't worry. You actually can open it with Linux (as we know, there's nothing this OS can't do :)
.dmg are Disk Images of the Apple FS HFS - nothing more, nothing less.
And you can mount this as any Disk image =)

First, be sure you really have a true hfs Disk Image:
:~$ file myImage.dmg
Should result like this:
Real Poof.dmg: Macintosh HFS data (mounted) created: Sun Jul 6 17:43:33 2003,
last modified: Sat Mar 6 09:33:12 2004, block size: 512, number of blocks: 4090,
volume name: RealPoof

With Linux, Disk Images are mounted as loop devices, so the appropriate command would look like this:
:~$ mount -t hfs -o loop myImage.dmg /macdisk
VoilĂ  :) The Image is mounted to /macdisk. (of course, there should be a directory like this ;)

Unfortunately, you must be root to do so - and the Image is only available to the root user.
Therefore we should enhance that a bit.
First, you need to make a new entry to /etc/fstab. (beginners: you must be root for this ;)
Add a line like this:
/tmp/hfsimage /macdisk hfs defaults,noauto,user,loop 0 0
Now any user can mount such an image.
However, the mounted file is /tmp/hfsimage ...
So we should create this as a symlink to our actual image:
:~$ ln -sf myImage.dmg /tmp/hfsimage
(the -f switch will just overwrite any existing link - or file, so please do not copy or hardlink files to /tmp/hfsimage)

Sylpheed vs Thunderbird

Good review on Sylpheed as I need (so is the follow ups): http://my.opera.com/spikly_guy/blog/2007/10/03/trying-out-sylpheed-as-an-alternative-to-thunderbird (Trying out Sylpheed as an alternative to Thunderbird).

  1. Ga jadi nyari email client yg bisa baca ~/Mail folder punya kmail (thanks to mail list telling the distant between kmail and sylpheed file structure.
  2. Make 3 email client sekaligus di desktop, dan 2 di laptop/rumah buat bacaan di rumah.

sylpheed, icedove or cronosii ?

dunno yet
some reqs: fast and works fine with its address book.

and, hey, my gatotkaca account works with icedove but not with kmail.
what take me so long to figure this...
Thanks God for making me turn around to my old M300 laptop.

Enak/enggaknya UMPC

Enak:
  1. Buat diangkut2 keman-mana, terutama kalau SPJ
  2. Buat presentasi ke client

Gak enak:
  1. Bikin leher pegel dan mata sepet
  2. Soal tahan berapa lama didepan UMPC, ya kalau ada desktop dengan layar 17" dan resolusi 1280 seperti yg di meja kantor, kayaknya "UMPC cuman jadi eksternal hard disk doang". Heh he, itu kata lulusenrique_666.

Kesimpulan:
Setelah dapet pinjeman dari mbak Novi, ah gak jadi beli UMPC. Enakan beli kambing aja. Loh, apa hubungannya ya. Yaa selama M300 masih bisa buat ditenteng, mending nggedein monitor di rumah. Biar enak...

turning back on wiki

moinmoin got new big fan: wiki.ubuntu.com. or its not very new. as long as it is for me.
cool.
drawback will be python.

nucleus, wordpress, b2evolution

Which one? It goes to wordpress.
Nucleus is skinny, b2evo is fat. Wordpress is slower than nucleus but it's worth. And it's got wp moo.
So compatibility would be a plus.

You could set up a local imap server like courier-imap and access your maildirs through that, with disconnected imap the space/access-overhead shouldn’t even be that big.

theme nucleus

Subhanallah, ternyata Nucleus gak kalah sama wordpress. Pa lagi theme dusplic. Keliatan pro banget. Install themenya kalah cepat dibanding wordpress. Mesti ditaruh, terus diimport, terus dipasang ke blog yang dimaksud (dari home admin). But the tutorial is quite straight forward, though.

http://faq.nucleuscms.org/item/33/catid/5

Fiturnya gak sekaya wordpress but its worth with the speed.
Plus masih bisa diotak-atik untuk kebutuhan mendasar web. Terutama fitur multiple blognya.

Thank you Allah for the knowledge. Hari ini banyak yg bisa didapat.

theme wordpress

Subhanallah. Setelah nyoba lagi wordpress setelah lama nggak nyoba, ternyata wordpress asik juga. Keliatan rolenya sebagai cms yg defaultnya mengandung blog.

Installannya ada 4.8 MB. Loadingnya (untuk localhost) lebih berat ketimbang nucleus yg installannya cuman 1.8 MB. Tapi memang nucleus kalah kaya meski masih bisa dioptimasi untuk kebutuhan CMS umumnya.

Masang themenya juga tinggal dikopi ke folder theme langsung kebaca. Aku suka theme mg12, ya designnya ya idenya untuk menampilkan pages. Ini yang keren. Cuman belum ketemu nih caranya menampilkan subpage... :(

ntfs and ubuntu feisty

Mondar-mandir mo ngapus beberapa folder di partisi ntfs dari instalasi feisty default in my old Compaq Armada M300, selalu read-only. I thought this should be because an incomplete implementation of ntfs-3g of ntfsprogs. dunno which one is in. apropos ntfs return smbcquatas and locate returns ntfs contained in kernel. so that is!

Hence, google feisty ntfs and found http://www.ubuntugeek.com/widows-ntfs-partitions-readwrite-support-made-easy-in-ubuntu-feisty.html at first row. It's simple install, fot ntfs-config and dependents taken all along.

Thanks for the clue yo Ubuntu Geek!

Cheers.

UMPC

Setelah mondar-mandir nyari UMPC, ada beberapa catatan untuk seri yang ada di Indonesia.

Pertama, soal prosesor. Beberapa review memenangkan VIA Nano dari C7-M series yang lari antara 1.0-2.0 GHz. Di Bhinneka.com, seri VIA mentok di angka 1.2G. Sayang VIA nggak ngasih nama berbeda antara yg 1.0 dan yg diatasnya. Brandingnya jadi kurang dianggep kalau nggak ngeliat spec detilnya. Dell cantik nan mahal punya Mbak Novi Pustekkom ternyata bermesin VIA! Pemenang berikutnya Intel N270. Ini yg paling banyak beredar di bhinneka. Toko online lain, tau deh. Yang paling buncit AMD Geode. Mentok cuman di 600 MHz, meski versi perakitnya ada yang mahal juga karena dibundel dengan gadget yg sesuai fungsi.

Kedua, soal harga. Pemenangnya perakit Indonesia: Zyrex, X-Ware dan Quantel. Setelah itu, boleh lah ASUS eek. Hanya saja, ASUS menang di SSD, karena yg lain make mini HD yg cuman 1.2" (atau 1.8" lupa). Beda harga ada di hardisk, layar sama service. X-Ware berani ngasih garansi 2 tahun!

Ketiga, soal sistem operasi. ASUS siap dengan kernel Ubuntu yg dioptimasi untuk mesinnya. Pendahulunya menggunakan Xandross yang dioprek agar friendly untuk anak SD dan Ibu RT. Ini kesanku setelah nyoba ASUS eek-nya bos. Di bagian ini ASUS nggak ada saingannya! Zyrex Ubud yg katanya dibundel sama Linpus, ternyata waktu di telpon bermasalah di Audio sama Modem. Quantel berani jamin running Linux, tapi belum tahu kabarnya juga. Di milis katanya running Slackware 12. X-Ware gak jelas, tapi tidak dijual dg OS.

Kesimpulan akhir, goblok aja kalau membundel UMPC dengan Windows, apalagi Vista!

Ok, kayaknya udah puas muter-muter nyari UMPC. Berharap AMD keluar dari sarang GEODE dan segera merilis prosesor untuk UMPC. I think, UMPC + SSD = future!

Met malem, mo ngayuh Kanzen Scudetto pulang, nih. Minta doanya...

Hi all,

Flash Player 9 for Linux came out of beta yesterday. I had a little hiccup
installing it on my Etch box, so I thought I'd share my solution to spare
you the hiccup. I use Firefox version 1.5.dfsg+1.5.0.7-2.

The installer will ask "Please enter the installation path...", and when
you enter the correct path, /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox, it will complain:

WARNING: Please enter a valid installation path.

This is because it is looking for /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/components,
which does not exist (and which Flash does not apparently need). You can:

1. Create the directory. The installer will be happy.

or

2. Skip the (lame) installer and copy libflashplayer.so to
/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins yourself. (I haven't tried this.)

Good luck,

Reid

ATI R300 and google earth

Notes on ATI R300 and Google Earth (4.2 and 4.3b):
1. AMD64 kernel - GE not compiled in AMD64. The net say possible. I say it's a hassle. So is flash player. Detected Video driver: fglrx.
2. Kernel etch stable 2.6.18-6-486 i686, detected driver ati. GE locks on loading (R300 problem).
3. Try fglrx driver by installing fglrx-driver and ati kernel, GE hangs on load (no message) on either fglrx or ati (xorg.conf).
4. Delete and purge fglrx driver, GE runs good!
Alhamdulillah
