<p>Siempre he tenido la necesidad de descargar videos desde Youtube, y  para ello siempre encontraba herramientas para hacerlo pero desde windows, hasta que encontré Pytube, un programa que no solo descarga los videos, también los convierte al formato que necesites (mucho más de lo que esperaba). Solo debes descargar <a href="http://www.getdeb.net/release/3057" target="_blank">este</a> paquete, lo instalas (doble click) y listo! Lo puedes encontrar bajo el menú <strong>Aplicaciones - Sonido y Video - Pytube Multimedia Converter</strong>.</p>
<p>Algunas imágenes</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In questi giorni sto veramente pensando di fare il salto e di passare ad <strong>Intrepid Ibex</strong> da subito, senza aspettare il rilascio ufficiale. Il fatto è che col tempo ho "imbastardito" la mia Hardy per avere un po' di software ultra-aggiornato col risultato che un paio di cose sono diventate instabili.<!--more--></p>
<p>Da due giorni non riesco a fare il dist-upgrade perché il pacchetto <strong>ifupdown</strong> (che viene dal ppa di <strong>network-manager</strong> che potete trovare qui sotto) è in conflitto con <strong>net-base</strong>. Inoltre non funziona più il suspend. Giusto per darvi un'idea vi allego il mio <strong>sources.list</strong> e relativa directory <strong>soures.list.d</strong>:</p>

<p><em>Complicatino</em> vero? Se devo essere sincero di alcune cose proprio non ricordo perché le ho messo (sqlite?) ma probabilmente erano dipendenze per altri pacchetti.</p>
<p>Molte cose si risolverebbero tranquillamente se passassi ad <strong>Intrepid Ibex</strong>. Fra l'altro in questi giorni mi sarebbe servita una delle nuove funzioni del nuovo gioiellino di Ubuntu: la crittografia automatica di una cartella¹ (la cartella <strong>~/Private</strong>) che nella nuova release è praticamente automatica mentre su Hardy ho dovuto smanettare un po' e non sono riuscito automatizzare del tutto il montaggio (non c'ho perso molto tempo a dire il vero).</p>
<p>Insomma, credo proprio che fra un po' cederò al lato oscuro (dopotutto il portatile mi serve per lavoro e non averlo stabile mi romperebbe alquanto) e installerò la beta! :-D</p>
<p><strong>Voi</strong> che ne dite?</p>
<p>bye<br />
CDF</p>
<p>¹ no, non sono così paranoico da necessitare di un intero filesystem crittografato.</p>

<title><![CDATA[Canonicals Ubuntu-Doppel-Strategie trägt Früchte]]></title>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ubuntu ist bekanntlich die einzige von einer Firma finanzierte GNU/Linux-Distribution, die nicht zwischen Community- und Firmenversion unterscheidet: Canonical finanziert Ubuntu, Punkt. Es gibt keine Ubuntu-Version speziell für Unternehmen, die proprietäre Zusatzfunktionen enthält oder speziell zertifiziert ist.</p>
<p>Red Hat und SUSE, die Platzhirsche im Enterprise-Bereich, verfolgen eine andere Strategie: Red Hat finanziert das Fedora-Projekt, das die Grundlage für das kommerzielle Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) bildet. SUSE verfährt mit OpenSuse und dem Suse Linux Enterprise Desktop (SLED) ähnlich, auch wenn man sich hier mittlerweile um eine aktivere Community bemüht.</p>
<p>Das Problem bei dieser Taktik: gemeinnütige Organisationen, die auf professionelle Software angewiesen sind, aber mit ihrem Etat haushalten müssen, fallen hier möglicherweise unter den Tisch. Auch Debian ist hier nicht immer eine Alternative, wenn die Software relativ aktuell sein soll.</p>
<p>Die logische Konsequenz für Wikimedia, die Organisation hinter Wikipedia: <a href="http://www.computerworld.com/action/article.do?command=viewArticleBasic&#38;articleId=9116787&#38;intsrc=news_ts_head">nach und nach ein Wechsel der verwendeten Software von einem Mix aus verschiedensten Fedora- und Red-Hat-Varianten hin zu einem einheitlichen Ubuntu-Verband</a>, natürlich mit Ubuntu 8.04 Hary Heron. Ein weiterer Vorteil von Ubuntu greift hier ebenfalls: da Ubuntu 8.04 eine Version mit Long Term Support (LTS) ist, besteht keine Gefahr, in einem Jahr veraltete Software einsetzen zu müssen. Die Resourcen für die bisherige Organisation der Server können nun anderweitig eingesetzt werden, eine einheitliche Struktur ist gut und hilfreich.</p>
<p>Das alles bedeutet nicht, dass das Ubuntu-Modell das einzig sinnvolle ist. Ob Canonical mit dieser Strategie wirklich Gewinne erwirtschaften kann, muss erst noch bewiesen werden. Auf alle Fälle ist das Ubuntu-Modell bisher ein gelungener Mix aus Debian und Red Hat: eine kostenlose Version für alle, egal ob Privatanwender oder Firmen, betreut von einer vertrauenswürdigen Firma.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-257" title="Dell XPS M1530" src="http://zugaldia.wordpress.com/files/2008/10/xps_m1530_300.jpg" alt="" width="450" height="313" /></p>
<p>Everything seems to work smoothly, except:</p>
<ul>
<li>The touchpad mouse behaves like a crazy, sometimes it gets stuck at the bottom of the screen, sometimes it jumps randomly, sometimes you need more that 50 movements to cross the screen from corner to corner. It's some kind of incompatibility with a Dell BIOS update. <strong>Solution</strong>: Add <em>i8042.nomux=1</em> to the kernel options in <em>/boot/grub/menu.lst</em>.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Second thing: the wi-fi, the BCM4310 USB card is not automatically recognized. <strong>Solution</strong>: Download <em>ndiswrapper</em> (<a href="http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/all/ndiswrapper-common/download">this</a>, <a href="http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/i386/ndiswrapper-utils-1.9/download">this</a> and <a href="http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/i386/ndisgtk/download">this</a>, you may need another computer with Internet connection, <em>ehem</em>) and configure it with the drivers you can get <a href="http://ftp.us.dell.com/network/R174291.exe">here</a>.</li>
</ul>
<p>Drop me a comment if you need more info on any of these, enjoy your Dell.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Lo scrivo un po' per ricordarmelo e un po' per raccontarlo a chi può servire. Se vi dovesse capitare che la vostra console quando date il comando apt-get uptade o lo strumento di gestione dei sorgenti software diano errori la prima cosa da fare per risolvere il problema è aprire la console ed inserire uno ad uno i seguenti comandi in un terminale:</p>
<p><em>sudo apt-get update</em></p>
<p><em>sudo dpkg --configure -a</em></p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="www.live.com"><img class="alignleft" style="margin-left:5px;margin-right:5px;" title="Msn" src="http://apefruitdesigns.com/images/MSN_logo.jpg" alt="" width="297" height="166" /></a>Non avendo un granché da scrivere oggi pubblico una piccola guida per i novizi di Linux. Spesso quando si approda nel sistema operativo del pinguino si cercano i software corrispondenti a quelli che di solito si utilizzavano sotto Windows; tra questi vi è proprio MSN, anzi, potremmo definirlo "il primo tra questi".</p>
<p>Il viaggio alla ricerca di un client di msn per linux parte solitamente da quello predefinito e preinstallato nella nostra distribuzione, che può essere pidgin o kopete; ma non conenti delle poche funzionalità spesso si passa ad aMSN, e c'è chi decide di fermarsi a questa soluzione, ma uno furbo procede. aMSN è assai scomodo, pieno di bug e spesso rallenta il sistema. Si arriva finalmente alla soluzione: <a href="http://www.emesene.org/" target="_blank"><strong>EMESENE</strong></a>.</p>
<p>Emesene è un client di messaggistica istantanea che supporta il protocollo di msn messenger e a differenza degli altri client (Pidgin, Kopete, Ekiga, ecc..) mette a disposizione tutte le funzionalità che offre MSN messenger in windows a parte quattro strumenti che ancora non sono stati aggiunti (anche se sono sotto sviluppo), ovvero il supporto alla webcam, alla telefonia di messenger, alle cartelle condivise e ai giochi. I punti di forza di Emesene che lo rendono diverso e migliore dagli altri client sono:</p>
<ul>
<li>Il poter visualizzare, salvare e utilizzare le emoticon;</li>
<li>la configurazione stabile del carattere di scrittura;</li>
<li>La semplicità nell'uso;</li>
<li>Le diverse e utili estensioni;</li>
<li>Un estensione uguale a live plus che permette l'interpretazione dei nickname colorati attraverso i tag del plus;</li>
<li>La leggerezza del programma, che non rallenta i processi attivi nel computer;</li>
</ul>
<p>Si può scaricare ed installare Emesene da <a href="http://www.emesene.org/download.html" target="_blank">qua</a>. <a href="http://www.emesene.org/screenshots.html" target="_blank">Qua</a> invece potete trovare alcuni screenshot.<br />
Emesene è in continuo miglioramento e ha un team che giorno per giorno lo migliora. Credo in questo progetto e spero che nel tempo Emesene possa fornire agli utenti Linux tutti i servizi che MSN messenger permette ai propri utilizzatori, se non di più :)</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ubuntu - worlds most famous Linux distribution has really taken the world by storm, not only it is a strong competitor for Windowzzzzz, but the support it has is also quite large.</p>
<p>Ubuntu comes by default with Firefox pre-installed, though firefox has it`s part of share in Browser world we can`t deny the features Opera has to offer.Firefox is best in it`s class and is regarded as the best browser by some, but we are talking about opera this time. Recently opera released "Opera 9.6" for Linux.</p>
<p>It has great new features and I would recommend that it`s a good alternative to Firefox in Linux World.</p>
<p>You can<a title="opera 9.6" href="http://www.opera.com/download/" target="_blank"> download opera</a> from here.</p>
<p><a href="http://vishalrewari.wordpress.com/files/2008/10/screenshot.png"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-27" title="Opera" src="http://vishalrewari.wordpress.com/files/2008/10/screenshot.png?w=300" alt="" width="300" height="218" /></a></p>
<p>Both are same on performance front and both have their own set of features. But Opera besides being just plain faster, it adds feature improvements all around, like a new low-bandwidth mode in the built-in email client, expanded syncing (speed dial, search engines and notes), and RSS feed previews.</p>

Se trata de una gran oportunidad para todos aquellos que no se quieran aventurar con <a href="http://unmundolibre.es/2008/10/03/kubuntu-810-beta/">Kubuntu 8.10 Beta</a>, que incluye <strong>KDE 4.1.2</strong> por defecto.</p>
<p>Para actualizar la versión tenéis que habilitar la opción <strong>Actualizaciones Recomendadas (backports)</strong> en vuestro gestor de paquetes y añadir la siguiente línea a vuestro fichero <code style="font-size:1.3em;">sources.list</code>:<br />
<code style="font-size:1.3em;">deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-members-kde4/ubuntu hardy main</code></p>
<p>Una vez hecho esto puedes actualizar, mediante Adept, tu versión actual de KDE 4. Para los que sigan utilizando KDE 3 y quieran añadir KDE 4 es necesario que instalen el paquete <code style="font-size:1.3em;">kubuntu-kde4-desktop</code>.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:left;">GIMP 2.6 hasn't been ported on Ubuntu 8.04's repo. No worries my friend. Here is a simple tip on how to get GIMP 2.6 rock n' roll and running on your Hardy Heronish OS.</p>
<p> &#160; </p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><strong>STEP I - Let's get the latest GIMP 2.6 deb files at <a title="Getdeb - Software you want" href="http://getdeb.net">Getdeb.net</a>. </strong></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">The below trick/tip is an original post of <a href="http://xubuntu.wordpress.com">xubuntu.wordpress.com</a> (<a href="http://xubuntu.wordpress.com/2007/08/05/howto-access-getdebnet-packages-through-apt-getsynaptic/">Howto: Access GetDeb.net packages through Apt-get/Synaptic</a>)</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">(1) Open up a terminal ( ALT + F2 then type gnome-terminal ) and key in this command:</p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><span style="color:#808080;">gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list</span></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">(2) Put in the following on the last line at the end of the file:</p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><span style="color:#808080;">deb http://ubuntu.org.ua/ getdeb/</span><span style="color:#808080;"><code><br />
</code></span>
</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Save the file and exit.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">(3) Now run the following in the terminal:</p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><span style="color:#808080;">sudo apt-get update</span></p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><span style="color:#808080;">sudo apt-get update</span></p>
<p> &#160; </p>
<p> &#160; </p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><strong>STEP II - It's time to get GIMP 2.6<br />
</strong>
</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">(4) Still in the terminal? Type this command:</p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><span style="color:#808080;">sudo apt-get install gimp</span></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">This will update your GIMP 2.4 to GIMP 2.6.</p>
<p> &#160; </p>
<p> &#160; </p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><strong>STEP III - (Optional) </strong><strong>Let's remove the </strong><strong><a title="Getdeb - Software you want" href="http://getdeb.net">Getdeb.net</a> repo<br />
</strong>
</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">We added the Getdeb.net's repository at sources.list so take note that it's not an Ubuntu official repository. The tendency for this is, when we apt-get update or apt-get upgrade later on or in the the future, Getdeb's sources may jumble with Ubuntu's sources. You may encounter some problem with that so let's remove Getdeb's repo since we already get GIMP 2.6 running with all it's depencies.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">(5) Open up a terminal ( ALT + F2 then type gnome-terminal ) and key in this command:</p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><span style="color:#808080;">gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list<br />
</span>
</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">(6) On the last line, remove / delete the following:</p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><span style="color:#808080;">deb http://ubuntu.org.ua/ getdeb/</span></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Save the file and exit.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">(7) Now re-run the following in the terminal:</p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><span style="color:#808080;">sudo apt-get update</span></p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><span style="color:#808080;">sudo apt-get upgrade</span></p>
<p> &#160; </p>
<p> &#160; </p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Hooray! You have GIMP 2.6 running on Ubuntu 8.04 - Hardy Heron with no hassle.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Entah kesambet setan mana.., kenapa akhir-akhir ini aing tiba-tiba aing seneng banget ama OS yang satu ini, <strong>Ubuntu</strong> namanya, versi yang aing pake <strong>Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron</strong>. Dan setelah aing browsing di internet tiba-tiba aing sedikit terkejut karena Ubuntu 8.10 akan dirilis 25 hari lagi :D. ho..ho..ho..Artinya segera bersiap untuk memesan CD gratisnya (yang belum tau ini situsnya <a href="https://shipit.ubuntu.com/">https://shipit.ubuntu.com/</a> ).</p>
<p>Sebenarnya Ubuntu yang aing pake sekarang ini sudah mantap bin Maknyuz..., tapi karena DVD Repository yang aing dapet agak error, jadi ada sedikit kendala pada waktu install program dari Repository Lokal.</p>
<blockquote><p><em>Khan ada server repository seperti </em><a href="http://kambing.ui.edu/ubuntu/"><em>http://kambing.ui.edu/ubuntu/</em></a><em> ??</em></p>
<p>Iya sih, tapi berhubung koneksi aing lambat, dan jatah VPN dibatesin 1GB/bln dan sekalii donlot maksimal cuma 20MB ya artinya bakal abis VPN aing jooo...(<em> itupun klo file yg mau didonlot kurang dari 20MB klo lebih, ya wassalam </em>)</p></blockquote>
<p>Kampus aing yang katanya kampus Teknologi, ternyata tidak menyediakan server buat repository, "<em>Payah ah...</em>", yang ada file server film, dari film lokal sampe boxoffice, padahal dari segi pengguna lumayan banyak, mulai dari para praktikan ampe asisten lab (<em>yang aing tau sih...</em>) trus belum lagi komunitas linux yang ada dikampus.</p>
<p>Owh ya..., aing lupa ternyata ada juga ding yang nyediain file iso DVD reponya di lab. :D . Tapi koq nggak sekalian dimasukin ke file server yaa..., ada ada aja. biar sekalian semuanya bisa pake maksud aing. masa harus ngopi satu-satu ke kampus, ya gpp sih terserah aja.., nikmatin ajalah yang sudah ada. :D</p>
<p>Seperti yang aing omongin diatas.., berhubung Ubuntu bakal merilis versi barunya, mending tunggu ajalah "<em>wong cuma tinggal 25 hari ini</em>". Sekalian Reponya juga :D. Karena aing mau install ulang OS aing karena dah banyak yg gak jelas isinya, maklumlah namanya juga pemula disini jadi banyak direktori gak jelas akibat banyak coba-coba :D</p>

<description><![CDATA[Nachdem ich mich schon häufiger mit Neuinstallationen und Migrationen von Ubuntu beschäftigt habe,]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Nachdem ich mich schon häufiger mit Neuinstallationen und Migrationen von Ubuntu beschäftigt habe, hier mein persönlicher Guide für meinen Asus F3JP und Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron.</p>
<h3>Voraussetzungen:</h3>
<ul>
<li>Wenn möglich das alte/Quellen- Home-Verzeichnis als Backup auf einem zugänglichen Speichermedium (Netzwerk Share oder USB Platte).</li>
<li>Installationsmedium für Hardy Heron</li>
<li>Internetzugriff</li>
</ul>
<h3>Folgende Schritte:</h3>
<ul>
<li>Installation Hardy Heron</li>
<li>Internetzugang konfigurieren</li>
<li>Updates installieren</li>
</ul>
<h3>Firefox migrieren</h3>
<p>Dies ist einer der ersten Schritte, da ich viele Informationen in Form von Bookmarks gespeichert habe, und auch einer der einfachen:<br />
<em>/home/name/.mozilla</em> vom Backup kopieren</p>
<h3>CPU-Skalierung aktivieren (<a title="von ubuntuguide.org" href="http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_enable_your_CPU.27s_Power_Saving.2FFrequency_Scaling_features" target="_blank">Guide</a>):</h3>
<p>CPU Type herausfinden:</p>
<pre>cat /proc/cpuinfo</pre>
<p>liefert: <strong>model name : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU T7200 @ 2.00GHz</strong><br />
passendes Modul checken:</p>
<pre>sudo modprobe speedstep-centrino</pre>
<p>funktioniert leider nicht, auch wenn es eigentlich lt. Doku sollte -  aber dafür tut:</p>
<pre>sudo modprobe acpi-cpufreq</pre>
<p>Scaling Modules dazu:</p>
<pre>sudo modprobe cpufreq_conservative
sudo modprobe cpufreq_ondemand
sudo modprobe cpufreq_powersave
sudo modprobe cpufreq_stats
sudo modprobe cpufreq_userspace</pre>
<p>Die verfügbaren Governors anzeigen:</p>
<pre>cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors</pre>
<p>ergibt dann: <strong>ondemand userspace powersave conservative performance</strong></p>
<p>Module beim Start laden:hinzufügen in <em>/etc/modules</em> :</p>
<pre>sudo gedit /etc/modules</pre>
<p><strong>acpi-cpufreq<br />
cpufreq_conservative<br />
cpufreq_ondemand<br />
cpufreq_powersave<br />
cpufreq_stats<br />
cpufreq_userspace</strong></p>
<p>Utilities laden:</p>
<pre>sudo apt-get install cpufrequtils</pre>
<p>Testen:</p>
<pre>cpufreq-info</pre>
<p>Scripte schreiben um den Governor manuell zu ändern:<br />
<em>powersave.sh:</em><br />
<strong>#!/bin/bash<br />
cpufreq-set -c 1 -g powersave<br />
cpufreq-set -c 0 -g powersave</strong><br />
<em>conservative.sh:</em><br />
<strong>#!/bin/bash<br />
cpufreq-set -c 1 -g conservative<br />
cpufreq-set -c 0 -g conservative</strong><br />
Scripte entsprechend ausführbar machen. Einen Shortcut anlegen, mit gksudo das Script aufrufen.</p>
<h4>Standard Governor definieren (Guide):</h4>
<pre>gconf-editor</pre>
<p>ausführen, dann: -&#62; apps, gnome-power-management, cpufreq.<br />
Schlüssel für <em>policy_ac</em> und <em>policy_battery</em> auf <strong>powersave</strong> ändern</p>
<h3>Funktionstaste für Touchpad enable/disable belegen (<a title="wiki.ubuntuusers.de" href="http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Touchpad" target="_blank">Guide</a>):</h3>
<p>Backup der xorg.conf anlegen:</p>
<pre>sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup</pre>
<p>xorg.conf mit su-Rechten editieren, folgende Zeile muss in der Sektion "Server Layout" enthalten sein:<br />
<strong>InputDevice "Synaptics Touchpad" "SendCoreEvents"</strong><br />
in Sektion "InputDevice" von "Synaptics Touchpad":<br />
<strong>Option "SHMConfig" "on" </strong></p>
<h3>Grafiktreiberinstallation</h3>
<p>Dafür wähle ich das Tool "<a title="Envy installieren" href="http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html" target="_blank">Envy</a>":</p>
<pre>sudo apt-get install envyng-gtk</pre>
<p>Backup der xorg.conf, wie oben beschrieben, ggf. mit Timestamp, je nach Gusto.<br />
Danach in -&#62; Anwendungen, Systemwerkzeuge, Envy aufrufen, ATI treiber automatisch installieren, und <strong>WICHTIG:</strong> danach <strong>NICHT</strong> die restricted Drivers anziehen, wenn die Auswahl im Benachrichtigungsfeld oben eingeblendet wird - sonst läd der Treiber neu runter und Direct Rendering tut wieder nicht. Falls man das doch gemacht hat, per Envy den Treiber deinstallieren, Backup der xorg.conf einspielen, Reboot, Treiber nochmal per Envy einspielen.</p>
<p>Check per</p>
<pre>glxinfo</pre>
<p>Desktopeffekte nach Bedarf aktivieren: System -&#62; Einstellungen -&#62; Erscheinungsbild</p>
<h3>Installation der Multimedia Komponenten via <a title="Medibuntu.org" href="http://www.medibuntu.org/" target="_blank">Medibuntu</a>:</h3>
<p>Kommandozeile:</p>
<pre>sudo wget http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/hardy.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list
sudo apt-get update &#38;&#38; sudo apt-get install medibuntu-keyring &#38;&#38; sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install w32codecs</pre>
<h3>Installation nfs Dienste für nfs-mount auf dem Homeserver:</h3>
<pre>sudo apt-get install nfs-common</pre>
<p>mounten:</p>
<pre>sudo mount 192.168.x.x:/pfad/zum/share /home/name/vorhandenesverzeichnis</pre>
<p>Wenn man den Befehl als Shortcut anlegt, entsprechend gksudo verwenden.</p>
<h3>Java installieren (<a title="wiki.ubuntu-forum.de" href="http://wiki.ubuntu-forum.de/index.php/Java">Guide</a>):</h3>
<pre>sudo apt-get install sun-java6-bin sun-java6-jre</pre>
<p>Lizenzvereinbarung annehmen<br />
Auswahl der Java Version (wenn mehrere installiert) über:</p>
<pre>sudo update-alternatives --config java</pre>
<h3>VirtualBox installieren (<a title="wiki.ubuntuusers.de" href="http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/VirtualBox" target="_blank">Guide</a>):</h3>
<pre>sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose virtualbox-ose-modules-`uname -r`
sudo adduser $USER vboxusers</pre>
<p>Kopieren von <em>/home/name/.VirtualBox </em>vom Backup.</p>
<p>Damit steht im Großen und Ganzen die Basisinstallation und man kann die anderen Applikationen nachziehen:</p>
<h4>Installation Mediaplayer:</h4>
<pre>sudo apt-get install mplayer mozilla-mplayer smplayer</pre>
<p>Check</p>
<p>"Bildschirmschoner abschalten" deaktivieren (<a title="ubuntuforums.org" href="http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=321597" target="_blank">Guide</a>), sonst gibt es u.U. eine lästige Pause bevor das Video spielt:<br />
<em>/etc/mplayer/mplayer.conf</em> editieren, auskommentieren von:<br />
<strong>#stop-xscreensaver = "yes"</strong><br />
In den Settings vom SMplayer bzw. Mplayer: Videooutput: X11, Audio: alsa<br />
Entsprechend in den Eigenschaften der Filmdateien den SMplayer oder Mplayer als Standard auswählen</p>
<h4>VLC als alternativer Mediaplayer:</h4>
<pre>sudo apt-get install vlc</pre>
<p>Einstellungen vom Backup in <em>/home/.vlc</em> kopieren.</p>
<p>Thunderbird installieren:</p>
<pre>sudo apt-get install thunderbird</pre>
<p>Vom Backup <em>/home/name/.mozilla-thunderbird</em> kopieren (Maildateien).</p>
<p>Gnome Commander:</p>
<pre>sudo apt-get install gnome-commander</pre>
<p>Einstellungen vom Backup nach <em>/home/name/.gnome-commander</em> kopieren.</p>
<p>Putty:</p>
<pre>sudo apt-get install putty</pre>
<p>Dann die gespeicherte Settings/Sessions nach <em>/home/name/.putty</em> kopieren.</p>
<p>Amarok:</p>
<pre>sudo apt-get install amarok</pre>
<p>Wine:</p>
<pre>sudo apt-get install wine</pre>
<p>Azureus:</p>
<pre>sudo apt-get install azureus</pre>
<p><em>/home/name/.azureus</em> und <em>/home/name/.Azureus</em> kopieren, ggf. noch das Downloadverzeichnis</p>
<p>last.fm:</p>
<pre>sudo apt-get install lastfm</pre>
<p>Als Letztes noch die Daten kopieren (Musik, Filme, Bilder, Dokumente, ...).</p>
<h4>Damit ist das System komplett installiert/migriert und kann nach Bedarf noch <a title="ubuntu-forum.de" href="http://www.ubuntu-forum.de/artikel/28786/howto-pimp-my-ubuntu-7-10.html" target="_blank">gepimpt</a> werden.</h4>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ieri dovevo effettuare delle copie <strong>personali</strong> di alcuni <strong>miei</strong> cd. Inserisco il primo dei dischi (si tratta del Tannhäuser di Richard Wagner) e noto con disappunto che la lettura del supporto avviene con tempi pachidermici: va bene che le opere di Wagner sono lunghe, lente e noiose, ma non fino a questo punto...</p>
<p>Mentre il disco viene lentamente masticato e digerito dal software di masterizzazione Brasero, apro una console di terminale ed entro in /tmp per controllare (l'immagine ISO viene creata in questa directory). In effetti, dopo un paio di ere geologiche l'immagine ISO erano ancora di 300MB. Avevo letto di problemi di <em>libata</em> relativi al ripping dei CD, quindi dopo aver scartabellato i Libri Della Grande Sapienza su Internet ho aperto con un editor il file /boot/grub/menu.lst ed ho aggiunto l'opzione <strong>combined_mode=libata</strong> alla riga <strong>kopt</strong>. Quindi la riga seguente:</p>
<p><code># kopt=root=UUID=45ad37fa-386e-4ff0-be33-d4465e05c096 ro</code></p>
<p>deve diventare così:</p>
<p><code># kopt=root=UUID=45ad37fa-386e-4ff0-be33-d4465e05c096 ro combined_mode=libata</code></p>
<p>Per carità del Signore, non togliete il carattere di commento iniziale (<strong>#</strong>) dalla riga, a meno che non vogliate essere risvegliati dai gremlin questa notte. Dopo aver effettuato la modifica, si salva il file e in console si esegue il comando <strong>sudo update-grub</strong>. Dal successivo riavvio i CD verranno letti alla giusta velocità.</p>
<p>Piccola spiegazione per i più curiosi. Sulle motherboard Intel che adottano il cosiddetto<em> combined mode</em>, l'utilizzo di <em>libata</em> comporta l'impiego combinato dei driver IDE e libata. L'effetto collaterale di ciò è una lettura dei supporti lenta, lenta, lenta. Per risolvere il problema si indica al kernel quale driver usare per le porte IDE, se <em>ide</em> (combined_mode=ide) o <em>libata</em> (combined_mode_libata). In questo modo il driver richiamato potrà attivare il DMA e quindi, di rimando, si otterrà una velocità di lettura corretta. Per maggiori informazioni si vedano le <a href="http://linux-ata.org/faq.html">FAQ</a> di libata.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://gabuntu.wordpress.com/files/2008/10/gimp.png"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-685" title="gimp" src="http://gabuntu.wordpress.com/files/2008/10/gimp.png" alt="" width="200" height="164" /></a></p>
<p>El famoso clon de Photoshop llamado <strong>GIMP</strong> acaba de lanzar su versión 2.6 la cual es una versión importante. De entre las novedades y mejoras se encuentra el framework llamado <a href="http://gegl.org/">GEGL</a> el cual permite previsualizar el efecto en la imágen al momento, como por ejemplo el Gaussian Blur.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://gimp.org/release-notes/images/2.6-experimental-gegl-tool.png" alt="" width="320" height="196" /></p>
<p>Para instalarlo en Ubuntu, podemos dirigirnos a Getdeb que ya tiene disponibles los archivos .deb para facilitarnos la instalación.</p>
<p>Descarga Gimp 2.6 : <a href="http://www.getdeb.net/app/Gimp">Getdeb</a></p>
<p>Luego tienes dos formas de instalarlo. Una forma es tratando de instalar uno a uno descifrando cual es la dependecia del otro y buscando dependecias ó la forma más fácil el cual es entrar a la carpeta donde están los archivos descargados usando el terminal (cd) y luego escribiendo en el terminal: <strong></strong></p>
<p><strong>sudo dpkg -i *.deb</strong><!--more--></p>
<p>Listo. Ahora tienes la última versión de Gimp. Si todavía piensas que es difícil instalarlo, mejor espera que aparezca en los repositorios de Ubuntu.</p>
<p style="text-align:right;">Para más detalles visita <a href="http://gimp.org/release-notes/gimp-2.6.html">http://gimp.org/release-notes/gimp-2.6.html</a>.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The happy news is I bought a new laptop. It is a Compaq c797, Intel Dual core 2Ghz, 2 GB DDR2 RAM, 160 GB Hard-disc, with FREEDOM (who needs Windows anyway). I have installed Ubuntu Hardy Heron in it and named him <strong>r0n</strong>. :-)</p>
<p>Yesterday I gave him a mac look. This is how I did it.</p>
<p><strong>Step (1)</strong> Enable desktop effects</p>
<blockquote><p><em>System --&#62; Preferences--&#62; Visual Effects --&#62; Extra</em></p></blockquote>
<p><strong>Step (2)</strong> Install Avant Window Manager</p>
<p>Either through Synaptic package manager or issue this command in terminal</p>
<blockquote><p><em>sudo apt-get install avant-window-manager</em></p></blockquote>
<p>Install the dependencies too.</p>
<p><strong>Step (3)</strong> Open Avant Window Navigator</p>
<blockquote><p><em>Applications--&#62;Accessories--&#62;Avant Window Navigator</em></p></blockquote>
<p>And a small task bar will appear at bottom of your screen. Delete the "stock" task bar which comes by default.</p>
<p><strong>Step (4)</strong> Add icons to your new bar</p>
<p>Drag frequently used programs from the menu into this new bar. You can change the order of the icons from Avant window manager.</p>
<blockquote><p><em>System --&#62; Preferences --&#62; Awn Manager</em></p></blockquote>
<p><strong>Step (5)</strong> Start Avant Window Navigator with GNU/Linux</p>
<p>Check this <a title="Avant Window Manager" href="http://wiki.awn-project.org/FAQ#How_can_I_make_AWN_run_when_my_desktop_starts_up.3F" target="_blank">link</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Step (6) </strong>Customize your bar.</p>
<p>You can play with the options (add animation, transparency etc)in Awn manager. Install themes from this <a title="Avant themes" href="http://wiki.awn-project.org/Themes" target="_blank">link</a>. There are more plugins are launchers for Avant window manager. Unfortunately nothing worked for me in my Ubuntu system.</p>
<p>That's it.... and in the end, you will get something like this...</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here's a quick howto on <strong>using your Google Calendar with Lightning</strong> when you're at home, with <strong>all edits being synced</strong>, no matter if done online or with Lightning.</p>
<p>We're using the recent 0.9 Version of the Lightning extension for Thunderbird. You need to download the 64bit extension manually. The direct download on the Mozilla homepage will only give you the 32bit version. You can find it here: <a href="http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/calendar/lightning/releases/0.9/contrib/linux-x86_64/lightning-0.9-linux-x86_64.xpi" target="_blank">http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/calendar/lightning/releases/</a> under 0.9/contrib/linux-x86_64/</p>
<p>After that grab the Google Calendar addon: <a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/sunbird/addon/4631" target="_blank">https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/sunbird/addon/4631</a></p>
<p>After installing both of them, you should be able to set up a: <em>new calender -&#62; on the network -&#62; Google Calendar</em>. Post your XML address in the field, enter your password and you're ready for bidirectional editing.</p>
<p>A pictured howto can be found here: <a href="http://bfish.xaedalus.net/?p=239" target="_blank">http://bfish.xaedalus.net/?p=239</a> the wiki is here: <a href="https://wiki.mozilla.org/Calendar:GDATA_Provider#Accessing_your_Calendar" target="_blank">https://wiki.mozilla.org/Calendar:GDATA_Provider#Accessing_your_Calendar</a></p>
<p>Two things to mention:</p>
<ul>
<li>make sure to use the recent addons, which is a bit of manual work, but otherise the field for the Google Calendar will not show up or may not sync.</li>
<li>make sure to use the remote caledar when adding entries and not the local one which was set up by default (you can delete it if you don't need it to avoid confusion)</li>
</ul>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:left;">Conozco Ubuntu desde Dapper Drake, lo tuve un tiempo en un PC de escritorio, y desde entonces recuerdo que el reloj siempre permanecía en su formato de 24 horas. Primero era la única opción, luego en Feisty Fawn (creo) ya se incluía la opción para tener el formato en 12 horas, pero núnca me funcionó, incluso en mi actual distro (Hardy Heron) selecciono el formato para 12 hrs. y como si no lo hiciera, no funciona, pero ayer me encontré con la solución, gracias a los foros de <a href="http://www.ubuntu-es.org/" target="_blank">Ubuntu-es</a> e encontrado la respuesta a mis plegarias.</p>
<p>Primero, en una terminal abriremos el archivo de lenguaje que corresponde a nuestra configuración:</p>
<p><em> sudo gedit /usr/share/i18n/locales/es_XX</em></p>
<p>Donde <strong><em>XX</em></strong> son las iniciales del país donde vivimos, para México quedaría de la siguiente manera:</p>
<blockquote><p>sudo gedit /usr/share/i18n/locales/es_MX</p></blockquote>
<p>En el archivo que se abre ubicaremos las siguientes lineas:</p>
<p>am_pm “”;”"<br />
t_fmt_ampm “”</p>
<p>Y las reemplazaremos de esta manera:</p>
<p>La primera (am_pm “”;”") por esto:</p>
<p>am_pm “”;””</p>
<p>La segunda (t_fmt_ampm “”) por esto:</p>
<p>t_fmt_ampm “/”</p>
<p>Guardamos los cambios en el archivo y ejecutamos en consola lo siguiente para que se guarden los cambios que hicimos:</p>
<blockquote><p>sudo locale-gen</p></blockquote>
<p>Reiniciamos las x con un <strong>ctrl+alt+backspace</strong> y listo,, al seleccionar el formato de 12 horas, éste si funcionará.</p>
<p>Quedará algo así:</p>
<p><a href="http://thesicksadworld.wordpress.com/files/2008/09/24a12horas.png"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-94" title="24a12horas" src="http://thesicksadworld.wordpress.com/files/2008/09/24a12horas.png" alt="" width="174" height="70" /></a></p>
<p>Tengo entendido que funciona tanto para Gutsy como para Hardy.</p>
<p>No sé por qué algo tan sencillo no funciona desde la instalación, pero al menos tiene solución.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In questo articolo descrivo come ho affrontato il problema di condivisione della posta con Thunderbird tra Ubuntu e Windows.</p>
<p>Come prima cosa dobbiamo creare un punto di mount statico per la partizione di Windows.In questo modo la partizione di windows avrà sempre lo stesso punto di mount.</p>
<p>Creiamo il punto di mount.Apriamo il terminale e digitiamo:</p>
<blockquote><p>sudo mkdir /media/c</p></blockquote>
<p>Applichiamo i permessi di lettura e scrittura a questa cartella,quindi da terminale digitiamo:</p>
<blockquote><p>sudo chmod 667 /media/c</p></blockquote>
<p>A questo punto facciamo in modo di montare la partizione C: di windows all'avvio del PC.Per fare questo bisogna modificare il file <strong>fstab</strong> <strong></strong></p>
<p><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong>ATTENZIONE:MODIFICHE ERRATE DEL FILE FSTAB POSSONO COMPROMETTERE L'AVVIO E IL CORRETTO FUNZIONAMENTO DEL PC<br />
</strong></span></p>
<p>Ci serve conoscere l'UUID della partizione C di windows.Per fare ciò digitiamo da terminale:</p>
<blockquote><p>sudo vol_id -u /dev/sdaX</p></blockquote>
<p>dove al posto di X bisogna inserire il numero relativo alla partizione di Windows.</p>
<p>Per ottenere il nome della partizione Windows(quindi quello da mettere dopo <em>/dev/</em>), da terminale digitare(se la partizione windows è NTFS):</p>
<blockquote><p>sudo fdisk -l &#124; grep NTFS</p></blockquote>
<p>Se la partizione è FAT32,digitare:</p>
<blockquote><p>sudo fdisk -l</p></blockquote>
<p>Dopo aver dato il comando <em>sudo vol_id -u /dev/sdaX</em> ,si ottiene un lunga stringa tipo questa <em>1551E3646162906D</em>.Annotare questa stringa.</p>
<p>Adesso dobbiamo editare il file fstab.Da terminale digitiamo:</p>
<blockquote><p>sudo gedit /etc/fstab</p></blockquote>
<p>e aggiungiamo questa riga:</p>
<blockquote><p>UUID=<em>stringa_ottenuta</em> /media/c ntfs</p></blockquote>
<p>dove al posto di <em>stringa_ottenuta</em> dobbiamo inserire la stringa ottenuta con il comando <em>sudo vol_id /dev/sdaX</em></p>
<p>Salviamo il file e riavviamo il PC.Da questo momento in poi la partizione C: di windows sarà montata automaticamente sul punto di mount /media/c.</p>
<p>Adesso dobbiamo fare in modo che Thunderbird installato su Ubuntu,possa condividere impostazioni e email con Thunderbird installato su Windows.</p>
<p>Quindi apriamo il terminale e digitiamo:</p>
<blockquote><p>thunderbird -profilemanager</p></blockquote>
<p>Nella finestra che si apre,cliccare su "<em>Create Profile"</em>,poi su "<em>Next"</em> e "<em>Choose Folder" </em>e selezioniamo la cartella del profilo di default di windows.Tale cartella si trova all'interno di <em></em></p>
<p><em>Documents and Settings/vostro_nome_utente/Dati Applicazioni/Thunderbird/Profiles/a1b2c3d4.default</em></p>
<p>dove al posto di <em>a1b2c3d4.default </em>ci sarà un altro nome di cartella sempre <em>.default</em>.</p>
<p>Cliccare su "<em>Finish".</em></p>
<p>Abbiamo finito!!!!Apriamo Thunderbird e vediamo che ci sono tutte le impostazioni e la posta che abbiamo lasciato su Thunderbird di Windows.Da questo momento in poi la posta è gestibile in maniera indifferente da Windows o da Ubuntu.</p>
<p>Alla prossima<br />

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Once again I've installed <a title="Ubuntu" href="http://www.ubuntu.com/" target="_blank">Ubuntu</a>, I believe it's 8.04, via the <a title="Wubi Installer" href="http://wubi-installer.org/" target="_blank">Wubi</a> install tool (which is great if you haven't tried it)</p>
<p><a href="http://wilderquill.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/heron_small.gif"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-82 alignright" title="heron_small" src="http://wilderquill.wordpress.com/files/2008/09/heron_small.gif?w=57" alt="" width="75" height="150" /></a></p>
<p>I've realized that Ubuntu is just what I've been wanting - reasons follow:</p>
<p>-No Wireless connection: My Dell Laptop is very stubborn about using wireless with Ubuntu.  This is great because I have no choice but to write., no f*ing around online</p>
<p>-Dual boot with WinXP:  Because of this I spend less time getting everything I want/need to work in an OS.  Since I run Win and Ubuntu, the media experience I expect from a PC can be handled by Win and the write till I drop can be handled in Ubuntu with one application.</p>
