By
Hey guys, after a while I didn't update this blog, right now I'm just feeling like to share my happiness. Just want to inform you all that ubuntu 9.04 64bit run well in my laptop... i'm just happy to say to my self welcome back to ubuntu after a while back to windows because ubuntu version lesser than 9.04 doesn't support my laptop.

the installation process is simple, much more simple than before. to install ubuntu 9.04 please follow this steps:
  1. insert ubutu 9.04 live CD or the alternate version of it
  2. set your optical drive as your first boot device at BIOS or press F12 at boot sequence to select which device you want to boot from.
  3. select install ubuntu to harddrive
  4. wait until boot process done and setup your storage partition (at least 1 ext3/ext4 partition and 1 swap partition
  5. fill your name, user name and password.
  6. wait until installation progress finished.
  7. reboot you laptop now.
  8. VIOLA! your ubuntu now ready to use
okay let's check
sound..........OK
display........OK
bluetooth....OK
wifi.............OK
ethernet......OK

wait-wait... something is missing... the desktop motion is too slow...
you must do this step...

Code:
# sudo apt-get install envyng-core
# sudo envyng -t

here is my summary:
  1. Live CD boot smoothly (no kernel panic this time).
  2. Installation to hard drive run smoothly.
  3. Bluetooth and wifi(led is off and not blinking) detected.
  4. Sound card detected as HDA NVIDIA ALC888 with headphone jack problem fix with manually mute front speaker and disable mute for surround in volume control.
  5. NVidia 9100M VGA detected as VESA (no compiz yet) fix by installing nVidia driver via envng
last thing... UBUNTU ROCKS!

The Future Of Computing is Ubuntu Phone

By
As we are know, in the beginning of January 2013. Canonical announce their new project called Ubuntu Phone. From the beginning Ubuntu was just another Linux distro,  but now Canonical driving Ubuntu far beyond its beginnings as just another Linux distro into an Operating System that works on  television and even being  an android and iPhone competitor, Ubuntu is skating to where they puck is going to be. But, which such a bold move, there are significant obstacles to overcome. The soon to be released Ubuntu Phone is paving the way that all smart phones will eventually go. Back to the late  1943 where  computers were gigantic, filling rooms and requiring constant care and maintenance. Over time, the components required to build the computers become smaller and cheaper, till eventually it was possible to put one on your desk until the laptop computer, a smaller, more portable, but just as powerful machine was made and make it nearly obsolete. And then, com...

Fix windows's MBR without installation Disk using linux!!!

By
Bismillahirohmanirrohim... Assalamualaykum, When I was trying out new ubuntu 12.04. The installation progress went wrong and then freeze. After a couple of minutes the progress still the same. Before installing 12.04, my system was running ubuntu 11.04 dualboot (windows 7). Within my experience, when the installation of linux went wrong, the next step is recovering windows MBR using installation disk. But alas, my DVD-RW was busted long time ago and I haven't fix it or intent to fix it. The only thing I have is Ubuntu USB Thumbdrive.

By
PlayStation 3, sebuah konsol game yang diusung raksasa elekronik asal negeri sakura ini sedang mengalami masa-masa menyenangkan dilihat dari penjualannya yang terus meningkat dibeberapa minggu dibulan ini. Namun hal ini tidak terjadi pada konsol game portabel PSVita yang sama-sama buatan Sony. Penjualan PSVita dalam beberapa minggu ini terus mengalami penurunan yang membuat kondisi ini menjadi suatu berita baik sekaligus buruk bagi Sony. Hal ini diperkuat oleh grafik penjualan yang dibuat oleh beberapa media Jepang yang isinya mencakup tentang penjualan kedua konsol game tersebut dari tanggal 27 Februari hingga 4 Maret. Dalam grafik tersebut menunjukan prestasi PlayStation 3 sebagai pemenang besar di segmen perangkat keras dengan penjualan sebesar 65,116 unit pada kurun waktu tersebut. Sony juga diindikasikan telah berhasil menjual PS3 hampir 2.5x lebih banyak dari minggu sebelumnya... Penjualan hardware yang kuat ini oleh beberapa media jepang dipicu oleh peluncuran piranti...
