2 – Expand the Software Repository List

Pertama sekali, mari kita membuat Ubuntu "melihat" lebih pakej. Pergi ke terminal dan mengedit sources.list anda dengan command:

sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

Ini adalah isi dari source.list aku yang aku fikir cukup lengkap untuk memiliki semua aplikasi yang diperlukan anda. Jadi padam semua kandungan senarai sumber-sumber anda dan menggantikannya dengan isi source.list tadi.

Save. Sekarang import repositori yang diperlukan kunci untuk mengelakkan "apt-get" menangis tentang beberapa kunci yang hilang, pergi ke terminal dan taip:

sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com DCF9F87B6DFBCBAE F9A2F76A9D1A0061 A040830F7FAC5991 2EBC26B60C5A2783

How to install XBMC in Ubuntu 10.04/10.10

here is lots of confusing information on how to get XBMC installed. I took some of the information from http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title...rmic_or_higher and figured out how to make it work in Ubuntu 10.10:

Start by running this command:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc

Now click on System->Administration->Synaptic Package Manager->Settings->Repositories->Other Software.

Select the first ppa for team-xbmc, then click on "Edit..."

Change the Distribution to "lucid". Click OK.

Select the 2nd ppa for team-xbmc, and make the same the same change to "lucid".

Reload the packages, and then install "xbmc" as well as "xbmc-standalone". If you want to use the command-line instead of Synaptic Package Manager to do this, here are the relevant commands:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install xbmc xbmc-standalone

You should now have XBMC in Applications->Sound & Video->XBMC Media Center

Tutorial: HOW-TO:Install XBMC on Ubuntu

1 Installing XBMC Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic or higher

Note: You find newer XBMC packages on this Repository-Overview for Ubuntu 12.04 and older.
If you are using Ubuntu 9.10 or higher, you have the option of a more streamlined install. Load the terminal window and issue the following:

sudo apt-get install python-software-properties pkg-config
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install xbmc xbmc-standalone
sudo apt-get update

You do not need to add the XBMC Repo nor the PPA Keys. XBMC is already installed. To have content, go to Adding the XBMC SVN Repo Installer (not to be confused with XBMC Repo below).
If you get an error message like xbmc: Depends: xbmc-data (= 2:10.00~svn35648-lucid1) but it is not going to be installed E: Broken packages while doing this, please enable multiverse and multiverse repositores in /etc/apt/sources.list, or go to the System menu, then Administration, then Software Sources and check the "Community-maintained open Source software (universe)" and "Software restricted by copyright or legal issues (multiverse)" checkboxes and apply the changes.
For NVidia hardware acceleration (VDPAU) in Ubuntu 10.04 install the following packages:

sudo apt-get install libvdpau1 nvidia-185-libvdpau

2 Adding the XBMC Repo

Adding the XBMC Repo tells your system where to look for xbmc for installation and future updates

From the Desktop, click System -> Administration -> Software Sources.
Click the "Third Party Software" tab.
Click "Add" for each of the following. For the Apt line type the following, substituting "jaunty" for your version:

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main

Click "Close". If you see a GPG Error upon closing the window, not to worry. That will be handled in the next step.

3 Adding PPA Keys

These packages are signed with a unique key for added security. Synaptic needs to know this key in order to verify the packages' authenticity.

Click here to view the PGP key
Select the text from the beginning of the keyblock to the end (including those lines)
Copy that text to the clipboard (Edit -> Copy)
Open your text editor from Applications -> Text Editor.
Paste the key contents (Edit -> Paste)
Save the document in your home folder as xbmc-ppa.key
Reopen Software Sources, this time choosing the "Authentication" tab.
Click "Import Key File" and choose the newly created xbmc-ppa.key and press OK.

You can also combine all these steps into a single command-line command:

sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 0x6d975c4791e7ee5e

4 Installing XBMC

Now that the repo and key have been added, install XBMC like any other program.

Click System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager
Click "Reload"
Search for "xbmc"
Mark xbmc and xbmc-standalone for installation and mark additional changes when prompted.
Click "Apply" and agree to the changes after reading them.

XBMC is now installed and ready for use.

5 Adding the XBMC SVN Repo Installer

In Ubuntu the SVN Repositories are not automatically added. You must add them manually.

First, download the SVN Repo Installer from:
http://xbmc-addons.googlecode.com/svn/packages/plugins/programs/SVN_Repo_Installer.zip
Extract it to the ~/.xbmc/plugins/programs directory. If this directory does not exist, run XBMC one time and then exit back to Ubuntu. The directory should now exist.
Select XBMC Media Center: Applications -> Sound & Video -> XBMC Media Center
Scroll down to Programs.
Select program plugins.
Select SVN Repo Installer
Select xbmc-addons
Select plugins
Choose the plugins that you want to add (i.e., videos)

6 Autostart XBMC (optional)

By following these instructions, your system will boot directly into XBMC rather than your desktop from now on. It is advised that you delay this step until XBMC is setup as you'd like it.

From the desktop click System -> Administration -> Login Screen
From the "Security" tab choose "Enable Automatic Login" and select your username.
Click "OK" to exit.
Logout of your system.
From the Login screen choose "Select Session"
Choose "XBMC" and click "Change Session"

You're finished. Next time you login you should be greeted with XBMC.

7 Autostart XBMC (optional alternative)

From the desktop click System -> Administration -> Login Screen
From the "Security" tab choose "Enable Automatic Login" and select your username.
Click "OK" to exit.
From the desktop click System -> Preferences -> Startup Applications
Click "Add"
Name: XBMC
Command: xbmc
Comment: XBMC
Click "OK"

You're DONE, Ubuntu will now load gnome first then xbmc straight after, slightly slower but it keeps your gnome session available.
NOTE: It is important to use all lower case characters when entering the command.

Title: Change mouse cursor theme in Ubuntu with Compiz enabled (10.04 and higher)

There is a bug in the Compiz package in Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx (in Maverick Meerkat too) that doesn't allow you to fully change the mouse cursor theme. You only get the new cursor theme in some windows. But you can still change the mouse cursor theme in Ubuntu, even if you have Compiz enabled.
1. Go to /usr/share/icons and locate the exact folder name for the mouse cursor theme you want to use – remember it! For the Elementary theme, the folder name would be "DMZ-Black"
2. Now you need to edit the /usr/share/icons/default/index.theme file. Press ALT + F2 and enter:

gksu gedit /usr/share/icons/default/index.theme

Comment line with "Inherits=DMZ-White" and under this line add an identical line with the exact name of the mouse cursor theme you got in step 1. The final index.theme should look like this:

[Icon Theme]
#Inherits=DMZ-White
Inherits=DMZ-Black

UPDATE: Second way

Press ALT+F2 and run gconf-editor and go to desktop > gnome > peripherals > mouse and edit cursor_theme. Here you can enter theme name you got in step 1.
3. Restart Compiz by pressing Alt + F2 and entering:

compiz --replace

or simply Log out and Log in.

Tutorial: Install apt-fast

Ubuntu users can install the latest stable apt-fast from its official PPA:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:apt-fast/stable
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install apt-fast

When installing apt-fast in Ubuntu via its PPA, the package asks you if you want to use aptitude or apt-get, what download manager to use (axel or aria2c). If, later on, you want to change some of the apt-fast options, use the following command:

sudo dpkg-reconfigure apt-fast

aria2c is the download tool recommended by the apt-fast developers, mostly because it supports resuming downloads.

For other Linux distributions, you can download apt-fast from GitHub.

Tutorial: How to make Ubuntu Linux look like Windows 7

Windows 8's tile-based interface puts a bold new spin on the familiar Windows interface—so bold that many long-time Windows users are threatening to jump ship to another operating system rather than learn Microsoft's "modern" UI. Of course, you'll still find yourself in foreign territory even if you actually follow through and make the jump. Installing a new operating system is easy, but wrapping your head around an alien environment can be more difficult, even if you're using a comparatively user-friendly OS like Ubuntu Linux.
Luckily, Linux is customizable—much, much more than Windows. In fact, if you're having trouble with the transition (or plopping Ubuntu on a parent's PC), you can tweak and tune the OS to feel pretty darned close to the Windows environment you've forsaken.
I’ll go through two methods here. One adapts Ubuntu’s default Unity desktop to make it feel slightly more like Windows, while the other entails a bit more work and a different desktop interface entirely to create a truly Microsoft-like experience.

Creating a Windows 7-style Ubuntu

Ubuntu's default desktop is clean, but not very Windows-like.

To be completely honest, Ubuntu's default Unity desktop may be slick and pretty, but it isn’t the most configurable Linux environment around. The taskbars running the top and left sides of its screen are locked in place and can’t be moved whatsoever. Unity is still fairly flexible, however, and some basic—for Linux—tweaks can give it some of that old Windows 7 charm.
A quick note: These tips were tested on Ubuntu 12.10, the most current version of the operating system at the time of publication.
We’re going to use some terminal commands throughout the course of this article. If you’re a new Linux user, don’t be scared—Linux’s powerful command line makes it easy to follow instructions you’ll find in articles like this one. Instead of following a list of long steps telling you to click here and click there, you can just copy and paste these commands into a terminal window and hit Enter.
To open a terminal, press the Windows key (known as the Super key in Linux), type Terminal, and press Enter. You can also click the Ubuntu logo at the top-left corner of your screen instead of pressing the Windows key.

First, we’re going to install a Windows 7 theme pack. Copy and paste the following commands into the terminal window in order, pressing Enter after each command to run it. The first command adds a personal package archive (PPA) to your system that Ubuntu can install packages from. The second command downloads information about the newly available packages, and the third command installs the Windows 7 theme—no installation wizard required. Typing sudo before each command allows it to run with root permissions, similar to running a program as administrator in Windows.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:upubuntu-com/gtk3
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install win2-7

The Win2-7 theme is now installed. To enable the icon, window border, and widget theme, copy and paste the following commands into the terminal. As you run each command, you’ll see your desktop gradually transform and become more Windows-like.

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-theme 'Win2-7-theme'
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences theme 'Win2-7-theme'
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface icon-theme 'Win2-7-icons'

The taskbar-like launcher at the left side of your screen will still be a different color. Never fear—like Windows 7’s taskbar, the launcher derives its colors from your desktop wallpaper. For this article, we’ll use Windows 7’s default wallpaper, which you can find all over the Internet. (I snagged my copy from an old ZDNet post.) If you’re using Firefox on Ubuntu, right-click the full-size wallpaper image in your browser and select Set as Desktop Background.
You’ll also want to move the window management buttons—close, minimize, and maximize— located at the top-left corner of each window by default. Use this command to put them in a Windows-style order:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences button-layout 'menu:minimize,maximize,close'

To remove the Mac-style global menu bar and put the menu bar (containing File/Edit/View) back into each individual application window, run this command:

sudo apt-get autoremove appmenu-gtk appmenu-gtk3 appmenu-qt indicator-appmenu

You’ll have to log out and log back in for this change to take effect. Use the button at the top-right corner of your screen to log out.

Do you like what you see? This is as close to Windows 7 as we’re going to get with Ubuntu’s default Unity desktop environment. If it doesn't quite scratch your itch, keep reading to learn how to create a more traditional Windows 7-style look using the Xfce desktop environment.

Installing and customizing Xfce

For this method, we’ll be throwing Ubuntu’s default Unity desktop out and going our own way. (Okay, we’re not actually throwing it out, just selecting a different environment on the login screen). Xfce is one of the most popular desktops that still offers a lot of configurability. Install it with this command:

sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop

Log out of Ubuntu using the menu at the top-right corner of the screen and click the icon next to your name on the login screen. Select Xubuntu session and log in normally. (You can install multiple desktop environments and toggle between them on the login screen like this.)
Xfce also uses a two-panel layout by default. We’ll have to do some heavy customization to get it looking more like Windows 7, but it’s all graphical—if you’re a Windows power user, you’ve done this kind of tweaking many times before.
First, get rid of the top panel. Right-click it, point to Panel, select Panel Preferences, and click the red Remove button. Use the drop-down box in the panel configuration window to select the other panel. Uncheck the 'Automatically show and hide the panel' option and check the 'Automatically increase the length' option. Now we’re getting somewhere! At this point, you should have a single taskbar-like panel across that bottom of your screen.
Use the buttons on the Items panel to remove the items you don’t want, add the items you do want, and reorder them as you see fit. For a Windows 7-style taskbar, try using these items in the following order:
Applications Menu, Separator, Launcher, Window Buttons, Separator, Notification Area, Indicator Plugin, Show Desktop.

The item options for Xfce's panel are nice and simple.

Add as many launchers (read: shortcuts) as you like to the launcher section and think of them as your new quick launch bar. Unfortunately, Xfce can’t group applications and open windows the same way Windows 7’s taskbar can, so it’s a bit more old school.
To configure an item, select it in the list and click the Gear button. You’ll also want to disable the 'Show button title' option in the Applications Menu item’s settings.

Theming Xfce to look like Windows

Now we just have to make Xfce look more like Windows 7. If you didn’t run any of the commands in the Unity section above, run the commands below in a terminal. (Right-click the desktop and select 'Open terminal here' to open a terminal in Xfce.)

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:upubuntu-com/gtk3
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install win2-7
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences theme 'Win2-7-theme'
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences button-layout 'menu:minimize,maximize,close'

Open the Settings Manager from the applications menu and click the Appearance icon. Select Win2-7-theme in the Style list and select Win2-7 in the Icons list.
Press Alt+F2 and run the following command to get Windows 7-style window borders. If you're typing this out rather than copying and pasting, note that the command includes a double-dash, not a long em dash.

metacity --replace

Go into the Session and Startup panel in the Settings Manager, select the Application Autostarttab, and click the Add button. Enter Metacity as the application’s name and metacity --replace as its command. Now Windows 7-style window borders will automatically start with your desktop.

To make your panel look more like Windows 7’s panel, right-click it, point to Panel, and select Panel Preferences. On the Appearance tab, select Background image and browse to the \usr\share\themes\Win2-7-theme\gtk-2.0\Panel\ directory on your computer. Select a background image like Panel_Win2-7Basic800.png. The theme pack we installed includes a variety of panel backgrounds, so feel free to experiment.
You can also change the applications menu’s graphic and make it use a Windows 7-style start orb. First, find a Windows 7 start orb image—you can find several on Google Images, but make sure you get a transparent PNG image. Once you’ve found a good image, right-click the Applications menu button, select Properties, and use the Icon button to select your start orb.

Here it is: A Linux OS in Windows clothing, perfect for those afraid of change.

Phew, that took a lot of tweaking (and a lot of text)—but we now have a Windows 7-style desktop on Ubuntu. It lacks a Windows 7-style Start menu and taskbar, but Windows users that prefer the classic Start menu and taskbar behavior will find it immediately familiar.

Undoing your changes

Want to undo your changes? If you followed the first method, just run these commands. Remember to log out and log back in after running the commands to restore the global menu bar.

gsettings reset org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-theme
gsettings reset org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences theme
gsettings reset org.gnome.desktop.interface icon-theme
gsettings reset org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences button-layout
gsettings reset org.gnome.desktop.background picture-uri
sudo apt-get install appmenu-gtk appmenu-gtk3 appmenu-qt indicator-appmenu

If you followed the second method, log out and select Ubuntu’s default desktop environment from the login screen. You can toggle between the two whenever you like. If you’d like to uninstall Xfce, use this command:

sudo apt-get autoremove xubuntu-desktop

These processes are a good demonstration of just how configurable Linux is. You can rip out software from the default desktop, use all sorts of themes, install a completely different desktop environment, or even build your own desktop environment by cobbling together pieces from different desktop environments—that’s what we did in the last section.

Windows 7 vs. Ubuntu 12.04:Enable Public Folder Sharing without Passwords

By default Windows 7 and Ubuntu 12.04 come with Public Folders that you can use to share files with anyone, even to someone without a local account. This can come in handy if you need to quickly make a public file available to all users on the system or network without worrying about permissions.
This brief tutorial is going to show you how to make that happen in both Windows 7 and Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise Pangolin). Windows 7 and Ubuntu 12.04 may be different, but are almost similar in many functions. Almost everything you do in Windows 7 can be done in Ubuntu 12.04.
So, without wasting anymore of your time, let’s get going.

Objectives:

Enable Public Folders Sharing in both Windows 7 and Ubuntu 12.04
Enjoy1

Enabling Public Folder Sharing in Windows 7 without Passwords
To enable other users to access public folders in Windows 7 without passwords, go to Start –> and search for ‘Manage Advanced sharing settings’

Finally, ‘Turn off password protected sharing’ and click ‘Save changes’

Restart your computer and you’re done.

Enabling Public Folder Sharing in Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise Pangolin)
To share your Public Folder in Ubuntu, go to your home directory and right-click on the Public Folder, then select ‘Sharing Options’

Next, click the box to share this folder and install the services when prompted to do so.

Then allow Guest access as well and set the permissions as you wish. Finally, click ‘Create Share’

Restart your computer and users on both machines should be able to access the Public Folder with authentications.

Enjoy!

Things to do after install of Linux Mint 13 Maya

Many users like Linux Mint than other distro's. Linux Mint is based on Ubuntu and release after Ubuntu. Here are some tips for Linux Mint 13 Maya.

Clarified these points, we proceed to list some things that can make life easier after installing the new version of Mint:

1. Run the Update Manager
Install Latest updates in your system, there may have come new updates since you have downloaded the iso. So you can check for updates from the update manager (Menu > Administration > Update Manager) or Enter following command:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

2. Install the graphics card drivers
If you have proprietary cards you can install drivers from repositories. Go to Menu-Preferences > Additional Drivers install driver you want to install in Mint, Also you can update and change (if you wish) the driver of the graphics card you have.

3. Customizing the Appearance
There are many ways to do this, and all are free! In http://gnome-look.org/ we have a large database of wallpapers, themes, tools and other items that will help us "lookear" our desktop. We can also make use of well-known 3 tools:
1. Docky , a shortcut bar for our desktop and applications. Official Website:http://wiki.go-docky.com/index.php?title=Welcome_to_the_Docky_wiki . Installation: In a terminal type:

sudo apt-get install docky

2. AWN , another navigation bar, almost docky competitor! Official Website:http://wiki.awn-project.org/ Installation: from the Program Manager.

Dapat Duit Dengan Survey

Alhamdulillah, dapat juga akhirnya walaupun lambat. Baru-baru ni aku dapat cek hasil dari menyertai program survey di Internet. Ingatkan program spam, rupa-rupanya memang betul dapat duit. Walaupun agak lambat tetapi survey yang aku sertai ini memang boleh buat duit. Namun begitu kita juga perlu berhati-hati apabila ingin menyertai sesuatu program yang menawarkan duit di internet ini. Maklumlah sekarang ini pelbagai program yang menawarkan wang segera untuk cepat kaya. Akhirnya terbukti program itu spam. Jadi berhati-hati dan buat sedikit pencarian di internet untuk memastikan program itu betul atau tidak.

Untuk program survey yang aku sertai ini memang betul dapat duit. Survey akan dihantar melalui email dan antara survey yang dihantar adalah berkaitan dengan barangan elektornik, perubatan, perumahan dan makanan. Setiap survey yang kita jawab akan diberi point untuk dikumpulkan sehingga mencapai 1000 mata , barulah dapat ditukar kepada duit, 1000 mata bersamaan USD50. Cek akan dihantar kepada kita setelah ditukar kepada RM. Sesiapa yang ingin menyertai program ini bolehlah hantar email kepada saya.
