Rahasia : CONKYWIZARD: GUI TO SET UP CONKY AUTOMATICALLY

Conky is a free, light-weight system monitor for X, that displays any information on your desktop. You've seen it in many screenshots under various forms; take a look at these screenshots if you don't know what Conky is.

To use Conky, you must manually set it up - and that's not easy as you must manually create the configuration file and customize it yourself. But now you can do this a lot easier using ConkyWizard, a GUI written in Qt and C++ to set up Conky and customize everything visually.

ConkyWizard comes precompiled for now (you need Qt to run it), but a PPA will be available soon. Before using ConkyWizard, you'll of course need to install Conky:

sudo apt-get install conky

To use ConkyWizard, simply DOWNLOAD it, extract the archive and double click the extracted file. A note from our readers: it seems the 64-bit binaries do not work, but the 32-bit version works in Ubuntu 64bit.

ConkyWizard default theme is based on the Ubuntu Lucid Conky theme which was available @ Gnome-Look but it allows you to customize every detail as well as automatically run it on startup and so on. It even sets up the delay required for Conky to be displayed correctly after the computer starts up. Please note that it has only been tested with Ubuntu Lucid so it may not work with other Ubuntu versions.

To get the sensors to work, you'll need lm-sensors which you can install using the following command:

sudo apt-get install lm-sensors

And then to set up the sensors, run this:

sudo sensors-detect

and answer "y" (yes) to everything.

Finally, run the following command to get the sensors to start:

sudo /etc/init.d/module-init-tools start

If you still don't see any temperatures in Conky, restart your computer.

Rahasia : 12 Reasons to Try Ubuntu 10.10 Now

As Ubuntu 10.10, or "Maverick Meerkat," hits the streets this Sunday, it's a pretty safe bet that legions of existing Ubuntu users will be updating to the new release. After all, it looks to be Canonical's most user-friendly Ubuntu Linux yet, and many of the new features promise to be must-haves.

For those in the business world who haven't yet tried Ubuntu, however, the reasons to download and give it a whirl are even more compelling. Here are just a few of them.
1. Speed
Ubuntu 10.10 is fast -- darn fast. Even the beta version could boot in as little as 7 seconds, according to reports. Who has time to wait around for Windows when there's work to be done?
2. Price
There's no contest on this one, because Ubuntu is free. Pure and simple. No investment whatsoever, unless you want to buy professional support later on.
3. No Commitment
You can try out Ubuntu without changing or affecting anything else on your computer through options like a LiveCD, Live USB, Wubi or virtualization--all of which I've already described elsewhere. In other words, you have nothing to lose.
4. Hardware Compatibility
Ubuntu will play well on just about any machine you might have sitting around, so you could also try it out on a spare one to keep it off your Windows machines altogether--until you decide you can't go back, that is.
5. Ubuntu One
Ubuntu One is the personal cloud service that lets you synchronize your files and notes and then access them from anywhere. You can also consolidate your computer and mobile phone contacts and share documents and pictures with them. On the fun side, you can use Ubuntu One to buy music and get it delivered to the computers of your choice.
6. Windows Compatibility
With Ubuntu 10.10, a beta client for Windows also allows users to integrate their Windows and Ubuntu worlds by accessing files from either platform. You'll never have to worry about being unable to get at your Windows files.
7. Applications
Unlike Windows, Ubuntu comes with key business productivity software for free, including OpenOffice.org. Firefox is included, but there's also support for both Flash and Google Chrome. Anything that's not there already, meanwhile, can be found in Ubuntu's Software Center. Whereas finding new software on Windows is very much a hunt-and-peck process, with lots of time spent on Google--and your credit card--the Software Center gives you a central place to find and download thousands of open source applications--for free--in a matter of seconds.
8. Security
Ubuntu--and pretty much every distribution of Linux--is extremely secure, particularly compared with Mac OS X and Windows. No wonder experts have recommended using Linux for online banking, in particular--the others just aren't secure enough.
9. Multitouch
If you try the Netbook Edition of Ubuntu on a supported netbook, you'll be able to see for yourself the brand-new multitouch features in Maverick's new Unity interface.
10. Beauty
One key emphasis in the new Ubuntu is making it more beautiful and aesthetically pleasing to use. The Unity interface is part of that in the Netbook Edition, and the Ubuntu Font Family is another part. It's all just nice to look at.
11. It's Sociable
Ubuntu's new "Me Menu" lets you access your Facebook and Twitter accounts straight from the desktop. You can connect to all your favorite chat channels and make updates through a single window.
12. It's Linux
There are so many reasons for businesses to use Linux today, it's hard to keep track of them all. Security is one, of course, but there are also many other reasons Ubuntu, in particular, has become such a good business choice--far better than Mac OS X or Windows.
Ubuntu 10.10 will be available for download starting on Sunday from Canonical's Ubuntu site. Of course, if you can't wait until then, there's always the Release Candidate, which is ripe for the picking right now. Either way, my bet is that once you try Ubuntu for your business, you're going to want to keep it.

Rahasia : Work Begins on Ubuntu 11.10 'Oneiric Ocelot'

The final release of "Natty Narwhal," or version 11.04 of Canonical's Ubuntu Linux distribution, may still be more than a month away, but project founder Mark Shuttleworth on Monday officially inaugurated work on its successor with the announcement that version 11.10 will be called "Oneiric Ocelot."

The "skunkworks" on Ubuntu 11.10 are "in high gear right now," Shuttleworth wrote in a blog post Monday.
In naming the new version of the open source operating system, "what we want is something imaginative, something dreamy," he explained. "Something sleek and neat, too. Something that captures both the competence of ubuntu-devel with the imagination of ayatana."
Explaining the project's choice, "oneiric means 'dreamy,' and the combination with Ocelot reminds me of the way innovation happens: part daydream, part discipline," Shuttleworth wrote.
Given Natty Narwhal's planned release date of April 28, the software's six-month release schedule leads to an October release for Oneiric Ocelot.
'A Stretch Release'
Natty Narwhal is anticipated with considerable excitement, not least for the radical changes it will be the first to reflect. Though the Wayland graphics system won't be ready in time for its debut, 3D-enabled Unity has replaced the GNOME shell as the default desktop interface, for example.
A 2D version of Unity is also available, and Ubuntu 11.04 uses the Compiz window manager rather than Mutter by default. LibreOffice is now included, and a raft of other changes are planned for the software as well. The third and final alpha version of Natty Narwhal was released last week.
"Natty is a stretch release," Shuttleworth explained in his post. "We set out to redefine the look and feel of the free desktop."
The latest stable release of Ubuntu is version 10.10, or "Maverick Meerkat," while the current Long Term Support (LTS) version is Ubuntu 10.04, dubbed "Lucid Lynx." Version 12.04, due in April 2012, will be the next LTS version.
Qt Libraries
What can we expect in Oneiric Ocelot? Well, first off, it may well be the release in which Wayland makes its debut.
Shuttleworth also recently announced that future versions of Ubuntu, post-Natty, will incorporate the Qt user interface libraries and may include applications based on the Qt framework.
"Our desktop has come together beautifully, and in the next release we'll complete the cycle of making it available to all users, with a 2D experience to complement the OpenGL based Unity for those with the hardware to handle it," Shuttleworth wrote.

The introduction of Qt, meanwhile, "means we'll be giving developers even more options for how they can produce interfaces that are both functional and aesthetically delightful," he added.
What effect Nokia's sale of its Qt commercial licensing and services business to Finnish company Digia might have remains to be seen.
No More 'Quit'?
Key decisions must still be made about which cloud platforms will be supported in version 12.04 LTS, Shuttleworth noted. Natty Narwhal is expected to support both the OpenStack and Eucalyptus cloud platforms.
Then, too, there's the announcement on Monday from Canonical designer Matthew Paul Thomas that Ubuntu will phase out the "quit" command, though which version that might appear in isn't yet clear.
What we can be sure of, however, is that exciting new changes are on the way for Ubuntu. Not only that, but we've all now learned another word. Oneiric -- who could have predicted it?

Rahasia : "Sexy" software

It has always rubbed me the wrong way when software is described as "sexy." There is something about the context that just seems off. Well, I just got around to reading a book I've been intending to read since 2006, "Female Chauvinist Pigs" by Ariel Levy. It's about how pop-culture & the media have managed to convince much of society that it is "empowering" for a woman to um…objectify herself quickly, before a man does (you can probably guess by my phrasing that I do not agree with the women who buy into this, and neither does the author). Anyway, there's a paragraph in there that sums up nicely my discomfort with the use of the word "sexy" to describe, well, things that have nothing to do with, you know, sex:

Sex appeal has become a synecdoche for all appeal: People refer to a new restaurant or job as “sexy” when they mean hip or powerful. A U.S. Army general was quoted in The New Yorker regarding an air raid on the Taliban as saying “it was sexy stuff,” for instance; the New York Times ran a piece on the energy industry subheadlined “After Enron, Deregulation Is Looking Less Sexy.” For something to be noteworthy it must be “sexy.” Sexiness is no longer just about being arousing or alluring, it’s about being worthwhile.

OK, so your software is "worthwhile" then. Got it. Congratulations, I guess? But…why??? Is it faster than the alternative? Does it have a more intuitive UI? Does it colour-coordinate better than the garish purple, green, and red interface full of tags of the alternative? Does it take what is normally a complicated 15-step manual process and distill it into a simple 3-step process wherein the computer intuits many of the steps itself? If so, say that! That'd be an actual useful description!
Feminist aside: the flipside of this is the implication that if a thing or person isn't "sexy," it's worthless.

Rahasia : Customize the Panel Ubuntu

Ubuntu includes a top panel and a bottom panel by default. If you prefer to keep only one panel at the bottom just like the Windows Taskbar, then these are the steps to follow:

1. Delete the bottom panel: right-click over it and click "Delete This Panel".
2. Move the top panel to bottom: right-click over it, select "Properties" and change Orientation from "Top" to "Bottom".
3. Add running program buttons: right-click the panel, select "Add to Panel", scroll down and select "Window List", click "Add".
4. Replace the Menu Bar ("Applications-Places-System") with the "Main Menu" to save space in the panel:
   
   1. Right-click the "Menu Bar" and select "Remove From Panel".
   2. Right-click the panel, select "Add to Panel" and choose "Main Menu", click "Add".
   3. Right-click the items (Firefox, etc) and untick "Lock to Panel".
   4. Right-click the added "Main Menu", select "Move" to relocate it to the far left. (See Note 1 below)

These are basic changes. The panels are much more flexible than the Windows Taskbar in that many items in the panels can be easily added, removed or configured.
Note 1: The Main Menu shows the "Lock Screen", "Log Out" and "Shut Down" items if you remove the "Indicator Applet Session" item (which shows your username and the shutdown button to the right of the panel). These three items are hidden from the Main Menu when the Indicator Applet Session item is on the panel.
Note 2: If you need to restore the panels to the original state, enter the following commands into the Terminal and re-start the system:

1. sudo gconftool-2 --shutdown
2. sudo rm -rf .gconf/apps/panel
3. sudo pkill gnome-panel
