I wrote this fuckin tutorial in order to satisfy my fan my friend and my fan my friend .
[ad#ad-posttext]

I googled and finally found this bug in Network Manager 0.8.
The solution is downgrading your network manager. But I didn’t know how to downgrade packages in Ubuntu without disabling my apt line that linked to the latest version of packages. If you wanna try, this may be a good tutorial. And, if you downgrade your Network Manager by following tutorial from community help, you can start by Installing dependencies then Make your Karmic automatically eject your EVDO modem each computer start and so on.

Let’s start…
UPDATE Dec 13, 2009
Add these lines into your /etc/sources.list :

#network manager
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/network-manager/trunk/ubuntu karmic main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/network-manager/trunk/ubuntu karmic main

Downgrading your Network Manager from 0.8 to 0.7 :
Killing Network Manager applet and Network Manager itself :

sudo killall nm-applet
sudo killall NetworkManager

Completely Removing Modem Manager and Network Manager :

sudo apt-get purge modemmanager network-manager*

Installing dependencies :

sudo apt-get install libpolkit-dbus2 libpolkit2 libpolkit-gnome0 libpolkit-grant2

If you downgrading your network manager following instruction from Community help, please continue reading Make your Karmic automatically eject your EVDO modem each computer start.

Disable all apt line in /etc/apt/sources.list, and add these two lines :

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/network-manager/ppa/ubuntu karmic main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/network-manager/ppa/ubuntu karmic main

Updating package list :

sudo apt-get update

Installing Network Manager 0.7 :

sudo apt-get install network-manager network-manager-gnome

Restart your system :

sudo reboot

Make your Karmic automatically eject your EVDO modem each computer start :
Create a new file /etc/udev/rules.d/99-evdo-modem.rules, and fill it with :

SYSFS{idVendor}=="201e", SYSFS{idProduct}=="2009", RUN+="/usr/bin/eject %k"

Note : My 99-evdo-modem.rules file can only handle Haier CE100 EVDO modem. If you have different modem, change 0x201e using your modem vendorID, and 0×2009 using your productID.
To check your vendorID and productID of your modem, do :

lsusb

In my Karmic, the results of lsusb command are :

Bus 005 Device 002: ID 1bcf:0007 Sunplus Innovation Technology Inc.
Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 008 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 002 Device 003: ID 064e:c108 Suyin Corp.
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 003 Device 002: ID 03f0:171d Hewlett-Packard Wireless (Bluetooth + WLAN) Interface [Integrated Module]
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 007 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 006 Device 003: ID 201e:2009  ==============================> this is vendorID:modemID of Haier CE100 EVDO modem
Bus 006 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub

Now, try to plug in your EVDO modem, if it doesn’t appear in Network Manager applet, try to hack your kernel :
Hacking it’s kernel :
Try this only if your Karmic doesn’t detect your modem :

sudo su
apt-get install linux-source linux-headers-generic build-essential
cd /usr/src
tar xjf linux-source-2.6.31.tar.bz2

Replace your option.c file (located in /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.31/drivers/usb/serial/option.c) using this one : download my option.c.
The difference between yours and mine in line 587 because I’ve added this line into the file:

{ USB_DEVICE(0x201e, 0x2009) },

Note : My option.c file can only add support to handle Haier CE100 EVDO modem. If you have different modem, change 0x201e using your modem vendorID, and 0×2009 using your productID.

[ad#ad-post]

Back to your terminal, and run the following command :

cd linux-source-2.6.31
cp /boot/config-$(uname -r) /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.31/.config
make menuconfig
make -C /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build M=/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.31/drivers/usb/serial
cp /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.31/drivers/usb/serial/option.ko /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/usb/serial/
depmod -a

Again, restart your computer, then plug in your EVDO modem, if Karmic doesn’t detect, please continue…
Replace your 10-modem.fdi file (/usr/share/hal/fdi/information/10freedesktop/10-modem.fdi) using mine, download here. The differences is in lines 82-89. Again, if your modem is not Haier CE100 EVDO modem, replace it’s vendorID and productID using yours.

That’s all…, now restart your computer then plug in your EVDO modem and enjoy .

ps : dont forget to enable your apt line in /etc/apt/sources.list.

3. How To : Karmic Koala and Canon PIXMA iP1800-iP1900

Once again, my Karmic Koala makes a problem, I can’t print with Canon iP1800 series using my Karmic Koala (my printer is Canon iP1880).
I asked Mr.Google and found Edgar Ilaga’s post in Ubuntu Forums.
And then I’m repackaged Canon PIXMA iP1900 drivers from http://software.canon-europe.com/products/0010647.asp, because of owner issue problem in file /usr/lib/cups/filter/pstocanonij and then modified the drivers by following the instruction from Edgar’s post.

Enough for the bullshit, let’s start…

1. Download repackaged Canon PIXMA iP1900 :
   Download from Ziddu.
2. Extract it :

   tar -zxvf Canon-Pixma-iP1900-iP1800-KarmicKoala.tar.gz

3. Enter to directory :

   cd Canon-Pixma-iP1900-iP1800-KarmicKoala

4. Install cnijfilter-common_3.00-1_i386.deb

   sudo dpkg -i cnijfilter-common_3.00-1_i386.deb

5. Install cnijfilter-ip1900series_3.00-1_i386.deb

   sudo dpkg -i cnijfilter-ip1900series_3.00-1_i386.deb

6. Plug in your Printer.

   If you are using Canon iP1900 series, it’s done. But if you are using Canon iP1800 series, we still got some steps left…

7. Your Karmic may be show this message :
   Then, just choose Provide PPD file from printer installation window.
   
8. Choose a PPD file using /usr/share/ppd/canonip1900.ppd READ UPDATE BELLOW!
9. Change your printer name.
   
10. Done! you can print with ur Canon iP1800 using ur Karmic Koala now… yay!

    

Thanks to Edgar Ilaga[ad#ad-post]

Update Nov 9, 2009 10:16pm :
In order to enable quality setting, please use this PPD file : http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?mdmldyztfoh. Download it and save in /usr/share/ppd/. Then from menu System->Administration->Printing, right click on your printer, choose properties, then change your Make and Model using this new PPD file.

[ad#ad-posttext]
For a week I can’t use my wireless. This problem makes me installing fresh Ubuntu Karmic Koala in my lapie for 3 times, sadly .
First of all, if your system same as my own, just try this trick. But if different, hmm, try with google .
I found this trick from Ubuntu Forum posted by chenxiaolong, thanks chenx, you save my lapie.
So, open your terminal, and check your wireless first :

lspci | grep Broadcom
03:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g (rev 01)

If your wireless looks like that, let’s continue :

#install linux backport :
sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-karmic
#blacklist ssb module :
sudo echo "blacklist ssb" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-ssb.conf
#blacklist wl module :
sudo echo "blacklist wl" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-wl.conf
#restarting your system :
sudo reboot

That’s all, after restarting, enjoy your wireless

3. Waiting For Ubuntu 9.10 Release

This is my system :
Ubuntu Jaunty Jackalope (9.04)
Kernel 2.6.28-15
Intel Core2duo T6400

So, let’s begin…

Plug in your modem to your computer. Check out that Ubuntu can read your modem by typing : lsusb in your terminal and you will see a line like this :

Bus 006 Device 003: ID 201e:2009

Run this command in your terminal :

sudo su
apt-get install linux-source linux-headers-generic build-essential
cd /usr/src
tar xjf linux-source-2.6.28.tar.bz2
cd linux-source-2.6.28
gedit /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.28/drivers/usb/serial/option.c

In line 297, you will see a line like this :

#define BENQ_PRODUCT_H10			0x4068

and in line 515, you will see a line like this :

{ USB_DEVICE(0x1da5, 0x4515) }, /* BenQ H20 */

Edit this file by adding this 2 lines in line 298 (below a line : #define BENQ_PRODUCT_H10 0×4068) :

+#define HAIER_VENDOR_ID			0x201e
+#define HAIER_PRODUCT_ID			0x2009

Edit this file by adding this line in line 516 (below a line containing : { USB_DEVICE(0x1da5, 0×4515) }, /* BenQ H20 */):

+ { USB_DEVICE(HAIER_VENDOR_ID, HAIER_PRODUCT_ID) },

If you get confuse, you can using my option.c file here.

Back to your terminal, and continue your command by running the following command :

cp /boot/config-$(uname -r) /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.28/.config
make menuconfig
make -C /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build M=/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.28/drivers/usb/serial
cp /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.28/drivers/usb/serial/option.ko /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/usb/serial/
depmod -a
gedit /usr/share/hal/fdi/information/10freedesktop/10-modem.fdi

Add this file content in line 10 or you can using my 10-modem.fdi here.

Update Oct 18, 2009 :
Create a new file /etc/udev/rules.d/99-haier-ce100.rules, and fill it with :

SYSFS{idVendor}=="201e", SYSFS{idProduct}=="2009", RUN+="/usr/bin/eject %k"

That’s all. Restart your computer, plug in your modem, you should automatically connected!

Tilda (a Linux terminal alternative)

Tilda is a Linux terminal taking after the likeness of many classic terminals from first person shooter games, Quake, Doom and Half-Life to name a few, where the terminal has no border and is hidden from the desktop till a key or keys is hit.
Tilda has many features for you :

• Key binding to show and hide tilda. This is very useful, because we not always need terminal program, but when need it, just press the key binding (I’m using F9 to bind it).
• It just have a terminal window, tab-bar, and scrollbar (if needed). Without menu bar and status bar, so the view is more large.

Website : http://tilda.sourceforge.net
Install :

sudo apt-get install tilda

Tips : Make your machine to start it automatically, so when we need terminal, just press it’s keybinding (I’m using F9).

3. Small Note Before and After Installing Ubuntu Lucid Lynx

Here we go. I made this post based on my experience installing Apache 2, MySQL 5.1, and PHP 5.2 from apt-get and always get error when installing MySQL 5.1. Then I must install them from sources.

Before we begin, make sure you already download source of Apache 2, MySQL 5.1, and PHP 5.2.

Download Apache HTTP Server
Download MySQL Server
Download PHP

After the download completed, lets install them…

Assume this installation guide using :
Apache HTTP Server version 2.2.13
MySQL Server version 5.1.39
PHP version 5.2.11

If you get different version, just replace it’s version number

This code is ready to use, you can just paste it into your terminal/console.

Install Mysql 5.1
Open terminal, and change the directory to the download folder.
Do the following command :

#!/bin/bash
###login as root :
sudo su

###extract it :
tar -zxvf mysql-5.1.39.tar.gz

###change to the mysql extraction directory :
cd mysql-5.1.39

###adding mysql group :
groupadd mysql

###adding mysql user :
useradd mysql -g mysql

###create a directory for mysql pid file :
mkdir /var/run/mysqld

###change its owner to mysql :
chown -R mysql.mysql /var/run/mysqld

###create a directory for mysql data :
mkdir /var/mysqldata

###change its owner to mysql :
chown -R mysql.mysql /var/mysqldata

###configuring mysql :
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/ --localstatedir=/var/mysqldata --with-mysqld-user=mysql --with-unix-socket-path=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock --with-plugins=innobase --without-docs --without-man

###make it :
make

###install it :
make install

###copying mysql.server file to /etc/init.d/mysql in order to automatically starting mysql-server each computer start :
cp support-files/mysql.server /etc/init.d/mysql

#make it executable
chmod +x /etc/init.d/mysql

#make it automatic start
update-rc.d mysql defaults

###starting mysql server manually :
/etc/init.d/mysql start

###install default mysql database :
mysql_install_db

Install Apache 2
Open terminal, and change the directory to the download folder.
Do the following command :

#!/bin/bash
###login as root :
sudo su

###extract it :
tar -zxvf httpd-2.2.13.tar.gz

###change to the apache extraction directory :
cd httpd-2.2.13

###configure it :
./configure --enable-so --enable-mime-magic --enable-rewrite --with-mpm=prefork

###make it :
make

###install it :
make install

###copying apachectl file to /etc/init.d/httpd in order to automatically starting Apache HTTP Server each computer start :
cp support/apachectl /etc/init.d/httpd

#make it executable
chmod +x /etc/init.d/httpd

#make it automatic start
update-rc.d httpd defaults

Install PHP 5.2
Open terminal, and change the directory to the download folder.
Do the following command :

#!/bin/bash
###login as root :
sudo su

###extract it :
tar -zxvf php-5.2.11.tar.gz

###change to the PHP extraction directory :
cd php-5.2.11

###configure it :
./configure --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs --with-mysql --with-mysqli --with-gd --enable-gd-native-ttf --enable-json --enable-zip --enable-mbstring --with-mcrypt --disable-ipv6 --enable-calendar --with-config-file-path=/usr/local/etc --enable-exif --enable-magic-quotes --with-zlib --with-iconv --with-freetype-dir=/usr --with-jpeg-dir=/usr --with-png-dir=/usr --with-bz2

###make it :
make

###install it :
make install

Finally, start Apache HTTP Server manually :

/etc/init.d/httpd start

Now, you can test your installation by typing

http://localhost/

in your favorite browser. If it displays It works!, it must be success!
Not : Place your PHP or HTML files to

/usr/local/apache2/htdocs

If you get your installation failure, don’t be hesitate to ask here.

Sometimes when you open The Gimp, it shows 3 window list (main window, toolbox window, and docks window) in the panel. It happen because you are activating compiz and not setting it yet.

This is very wasful space and not eye catching in your panel.

To solve it just follow the step I found from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=466622 :

1. Open your terminal
2. Type :

   $ gconftool-2 -s /apps/compiz/general/allscreens/options/active_plugins --type=list --list-type=string `gconftool-2 -g /apps/compiz/general/allscreens/options/active_plugins | sed 's/\]//'`,winrules]
   $ gconftool-2 -s /apps/compiz/plugins/winrules/screen0/options/skiptaskbar_match --type string "type=Utility"

   Or follow this step :

   1. Open your CompizConfig Setting Manager (System -> Preferences -> CompizConfig Setting Manager). If you didn’t find it, install it by typing sudo apt-get install compizconfig-setting-manager in your terminal.
   2. Activate Window Rules and then open it.
      
   3. Type : type=Utility in the Skip Taskbar field.
      

   After restarting Gimp you should saw The Gimp only have one item in the window list panel.

I’m using Ubuntu 9.04, but sometimes I didn’t like its apt-get. In Firefox too, I didn’t like install the 3.5 version from Ubuntu Repository, because it’s renamed from Firefox to Shiretoko web browser and it has daily update.

If you wanna using firefox from it’s origin, latest stable without daily update, follow this step :

1. Download Firefox for linux here
2. Open terminal and extract it to /opt : 
sudo tar -xvf firefox-3.5.3.tar.bz2 -C /opt
3. Make a link in /usr/local/bin :
sudo ln -s /opt/firefox/firefox /usr/local/bin/firefox

4. Add an item in the menu :
   
   • Open System -> Preferences -> Main Menu
   • Click Internet in the left panel
   • Click New Item button
   • Type Firefox in the Name field, firefox in the Command field, and Firefox Web Browser in the Comment field

That’s all. Now you can enjoy your fresh firefox 3.5!

3. Useful Software For Linux Desktop (1)

1. Main window
2. Toolbox window
3. Docks window

Mungkin ini agak mengganggu, dan boros-borosin space taskbar saja. Sebenarnya, window list ini hanya tampil 1 saja kalo kita ga ngaktifin compiz, jadi permasalahannya adalah pada compiz yang tidak menyembunyikan Utility window.

Kalo mau (kalo ga mau ya ga usah dibaca mas) menyembunyikan 2 window selain main window coba cara berikut. Namun sebelumnya, pastikan setingan 2 window tersebut termasuk Utility window, caranya melihat setingannya :

Buka Gimp, dari menu Edit -> Preferences ->  Windows Management. Pada kolom Hint for the toolbox dan Hint for the docks pastikan isinya Utility window (sebenernya ini udah seting default Gimp).

Selanjutnya ada 2 cara untuk menyembunyikan Utility window tersebut. Cara 1 saya dapat dari https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=466622, yaitu dengan cara :

Buka konsole, ketikkan (mending kopi paste) :

1. gconftool-2 -s /apps/compiz/general/allscreens/options/active_plugins --type=list --list-type=string `gconftool-2 -g /apps/compiz/general/allscreens/options/active_plugins | sed 's/\]//'`,winrules]
2. gconftool-2 -s /apps/compiz/plugins/winrules/screen0/options/skiptaskbar_match --type string "type=Utility"

Cara ke-2, menggunakan CompizConfig Setting Manager, yaitu :

1. System -> Preferences -> CompizConfig Setting Manager -> Window Management
2. Aktifkan Window Rules (dicentangin)

   

3. Pada kolom Skip taskbar (paling atas mas), tuliskan : type=Utility
   
4. Tutup CompizConfig Setting Manager

Selesai mas, sekarang coba buka Gimpnya.

FORMAT, akhirnya saya tempuh untuk menjadikan komputer ini perawan kembali (tentu saja pake 9.04). Tetapi, setelah diformat komputer ini menjadi bisu, ndak bisa ngemeng, suara kentongan ketika mau masuk pun hilang, apalagi mau nyetel mp3. Pokoknya semua tiba-tiba menjadi hampa, sunyi. Ga cuma itu, desktop pun makin lambat (meskipun orang-orang pada gembar-gembor klo Ubuntu Jaunty itu lebih cepet, wuz wuz…, dll), cuih…

Sebagai informasi ini komputer sebagai berikut :

Compaq CQ40-324TU, VGA Intel GMA 4500MHD, Sound : Intel

Setelah beberapa hari topo bisu (tapi tetep wadul-wadul di Mas Akhsan), akhirnya ini komputer angkat bicara setelah nemu tret http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1130582. Dipersilakan Mas Akhsan (yg juga pake intel) untuk segera Upgrade ke Ubuntu 9.04 saja, klo informasi di tret tersebut ndak bisa dipake ya selamat berbisu-bisu ria.

Setelah mengikuti pentunyuk di tret itu, wifi saya jadi ndak kedetek (intel juga).

Thread  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1136738 diatas tidak usah digubris, update saja xserver-xorg-video intel ke versi 2.7 :

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

Ini lapie merek Compaq CQ40-324TU, awalnya tak coba install windows XP (udah dikasih driver sata) pinjaman dari hanunk, pas instal gagal, bluskrin, ga tau apa sebabnya, mungkin lapienya ga mau dimasukin XP atau kompilan windows XP nya yg jelek, atau FF yg ngompile . Gagal instal XP, coba instal windows 7 (evaluation), yg katanya mirip vista tapi lebih ringan (katanya hanunk). Namun sayangnya maximum cuma bisa 3 partisi, dan saya belum terbiasa dengan UI nya, kesimpulan : yg ngasih windows XP dan windows 7 (a.k.a hanunk) pancen jelek.

Tinggal 1 harapan lagi, Ubuntu 8.10 sumbangan dari Pakdhe Cano yg sebagian tak bagi ke temen2 dan sebagian lagi tak titipin di sekretariat S2 Simkes IKM, FK, UGM (mba Nia), barangkali ada mahasiswa S2 yg butuh. Hahay, dan akhirnya, beuh, Ubuntu oh Ubuntu, kenapa kau juga tidak mau diinstal di lapie ini.., ya Tuhan, apa salah lapie ini… (

“Wahai umatku yg lagi instal Ubuntu, kesalahanmu adalah belum minta bantuan bangsa Yahudi, bukalah Google.com, cari disitu, pasti ketemu!”

Berkat bantuan Yahudi, akhirnya nemu tret di ubuntuforums.org (URLnya lupa), dan sukses (baru instalnya doank).

Setelah instal Ubuntu, tentu saja donlot ISO repository dari http://kambing.ui.edu/iso/ubuntu-repository/8.10/, instal Opera, xmms, lampp, d4x, dan lain-lain, dan tak lupa Mac4Lin. Sebenarnya saya beberapa kali kecewa dengan Ubuntu, berikut saya list kekecewaan saya selama bercumbu dengan Ubuntu :

1. gnome-power-manager not responding ketika powernya colok-tancep. [solved di http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=963832]
2. Firefoxnya isi address-bar nya ga pernah berubah meskipun saya klik link-link pada document body. [sementara solved dengan menggunakan Opera, dan Opera memang cantik, apalagi pake skin Opera Iblis Ibis. => jadi umatnya Mas Yeni]
3. Belum menemukan tool untuk manajemen database di MySQL yg ga web-base dan ga pake wine dan tentu saja gratis .

Semoga kekecewaan saya segera terobati dan semakin menikmati Ubuntu ya Tuhan, amiin.

Selain minta bantuan Yahudi, saya juga minta bantuan Muslim juga lho, yaitu ma5_4khsan. Dan dengan menggunakan Ubuntu ini otomatis saya menjadi saudara dari Umat yang tak diharapkan, saudaranya Sang Batur

Konon, terkuaknya kasus tersebut secara tidak sengaja pada tanggal 31 Oktober 2008 lalu dari alam bawah sadar pengen buka situsnya Ubuntu. Mengetahui skandal berita tersebut, langsung saja, seperti biasa saya pesan lewat Shipit.

Barusan secara bawah sadar lagi saya pengen buka Ubuntu.com, iseng buka Shipit ternyata pesanan saya sejumlah 30 biji lagi on the way . Baru kali ini pesen 30 diapprove semua , biasanya pesen 50-60 dikasih 20.

Mengapa saya pesen banyak? karena :

1. Biaya ambil di Kantor Pos Plemburan Rp 7.500 + bensin + waktu + makan, total bisa nyampe 30ribu. Klo cuma pesen 1 CD kemahalan tuh,
2. Biasanya klo udah dapet temen-temen pada minta (yang Ubuntu 7.10 saja udah habis, padahal kemaren pesen banyak, huks)
3. Meski donlot lebih cepat daripada pesen, tapi donlot ga dapet original CD nya ).
4. Kcian Canonical Ltd. klo ga ada yang pesen, ntar sama donaturnya dikiranya orang-orang pada ga seneng sama Ubuntu lagi, bisa ancur usahanya si Canonical Ltd. )

*menunggu pesanan tiba…*
