Merry Christmas!

WAW. I could not trust myself, I'm doing stuff that will never come again. I fill all of my Christian friends testimonial. That may would never happen again. It is too long, for every person I must personalize the word. I was online last night until 23.30 just to post half of them and half of them this day. But, I am glad been able to do that. That was a great achievement of mine and it was a very, very rare one. Well, to sum it up, merry Christmas everyone. YOU ARE DEARLY LOVED. Edit: What the heck am I doing here, this is Chistmas and I'm in front a computer. Gah, I must get a life. ;P

Virtualization in Review: XenServer Express

After a long period of time, my baby, semangat45, has been reborn after its long sleep due to the harddisk lost. It can't be helped, I was using a borrowed one. So when the user claimed, I just gave back the harddisk. Okay, enough with chit chat, there is a long way to go and hopefully I'm not getting bored in the writing stuff. Okay, I was looked at xensource.com and found out that they have made their own virtualization solutions. There was 3: XenExpress, XenEnterprise, and Xen[sumthin, I don't remember quite well]. All was non-free except the XenExpress, so I decided to download the XenExpress. XenExpress is an ISO contains Xen client (for Windoze and GNU/Linux) and an installation of dom0 (the host). I installed the Windoze client and installed the dom0 at my baby. The installation ran well. It installed itself like common installation, quite neat. I'm getting bored here, so here's the screenshot of the : That picture is the windoze client. It is built on Java a...

Makmur

Hmm... gw baru sadar, ada yang sesuatu yang berbeda. Sekarang semua orang (yang sudah bekerja tentunya) bertambah makmur. Beda banget! Duh, kok sekarang ud ada buntelan di perut. Pegawai PPSI bukanlah pegawai perkantoran sesungguhnya. Omg, orang kantoran asli pasti pake fantofel ama parfum. Gw ud susah ngeles pas ditanya mana pasangannya. Duh... gw ini jojoba, apakah seorang jomblo tidak boleh mempertahankan haknya?

Happy 2

Happiness not related to whatever you have, but it's closely related to what you don't have. Human's basic fact is their needs are continuingly increasing. Almost everyone (if you don't want to be added, so I just use almost) chase something in their lives. That something is a thing that makes them fully and content, which is non existing thing. Now, catch your inner and ask yourself. Why do you want to do what you want to do now? Err.. OK, I'll just straight to the point. I think you could miss the point if I must describe what we need. YOU NEED TO FULLFILL YOUR EXISTANCE . So, in order to do that, you find a great job, hot chick/man, ranks, etc. You want to be acknowledged by people. In that feeling, your ego plays high. You seek out to do something. THE PROBLEM IS not everyone can be satisfied and even some may be a victim to other's ego. The victims, whom has their ego desecrated, begin to desperate. Then, after a long lack of ego fulfillment, they become t...

Happy

Happy is something that you are not right now. Why? Lemme ask u, d u feel satisfied? Many things already in your grasp, but why are you moaning? Sometimes it doesn't make sense when you are yelling to someone that incapable to do something beyond the person's ability. Why do you push people? How can you urge people to be happy when you are not? You have knowledge, you have money, your table is never left without a bread. Why are you crying? You have people around you, but you tend to ignore them and try to cactch something beyond everything to please your idealism? How come? You want to get better but you get hurt. Because of what reason do you angry of yourself? Have you forget that there is always somebody that loves you so much. You know what, your problem is that you don't want to be true to yourself. Admit what you're thinking, say it and don't take it into your heart. I know, sometimes it lead to destructive act. That's why you need a friend. If you too sh...

Bandwidth Murah???

dari sini, nih.... temen saya ngedumel soal layanan akses Internet yang (katanya) cepat. Mo Internet cepet dan murah? Bebasin regulasi bandwith buat koneksi jaringan dan perlunak peraturan mengenai implementasi jaringan telekomunikasi di Indonesia. Nanti juga banyak perusahaan yang beneran siap masuk. Jangan sok ngerasa belain perusahaan bangsa, deh. Sejak jaman dulu kita juga ditindas sama tuh perusahaan dengan bandwith yang mahal. Gw ud gak peduli dengan perusahaan negara. Ud cuma bisa dikorup, trus pelayanan mengecewakan. Liat, tuh, P*N, ud 2 stabilizer, 2 mobo + 1 cpu ancur gara2 listrik turun mulu. Masak gw telat bayar gw dituntut tapi alat gw rusak gw gak boleh klaim? Keadilan dari mana itu? Liat aja di rumah gw masa musti pasang 1 stabilizer seharga UPS cuma buat arusnya gak goyang samba??? Ah, gw ngeritik doang bisanya... Abisnya, gw gak tau musti pake apa. Genset ud mahal, trus ntar bikin id cepet abis bahan bakar. Pake kaleng disambungin tali juga gak bisa ditarik ke Medan.....

What Teh????

Dapet dari blog anak 2006 mengenai tren di Fasilkom saat ini: 1. Jaka Sembung bawa malloc , ga nyambung malloc !!! 2. Aduh! Lobet you will nih,, malloc yuk! 3. slatch yg di PSD tiba-tiba bikin gw ke- slatch -et 4. kalo bersin ucapannya " ascii !!!" Nomor 3 itu apa, yah? Iseng membayangkan kalo nomor 2 itu paling enak jawab: Gak ah, ntar takut Segfault, nanti sig errno return gak 0. Yah, sialnya mereka belum se- geek itu. Tinggal tunggu waktunya mereka mengenal Jarkom... -_-' Mungkin istilah yang rada keren buat Jarkom: Buat orang yang gak nyambung/topik terlalu tinggi/rada gak ngikutin: "Lo ngomong di port mana, sih?" "Ud bind belum lo?" Buat orang yang suka miss-call: "Oi, gw ud ping elo" Buat orang yang pengen makan: "Duh, thread gw ud butuh resource nih, lepas mutex yuk." Ato versi ud sama2 ngerti: "Lepas mutex yuk." Hmm.. what else?

What teh????

Got it from my BB on FS, a story of The Police, The Army, and The Intelligent. The Police Department, The Army, and The Intel were boasting of each other strength and claiming of their ability to get any criminal down. So, in order to prove their words, the Government give each of them a test: To catch a white rabbit. The government release the rabbit to the forest and let the three catch it. First the intel. They put inside man over the place asking questions about the white rabbit. After a month of searching, they give a report stating that the white rabbit were never exist and it was a hoax. Then, came the army. They search the forest and after a month of no result they burn the forest and fries every living things inside. So, they manage to find the rabbit roasted dead. Not so effective, so the government play the test to the police: So, the police go to the forest. Two hours later, they come out with a heavily beaten white mice yelling: "YES... YES... I AM THE RABBIT! I AM TH...

That was close...

I have a sister, well not quite a sister, she is my cousin's girlfriend. She is one of the Project Rehab JP. Well, it's a name that I call to a bunch of relatives that tries to get me a REAL girlfriend, not a server nor a computer. She was wandered how come I didn't have any girlfriend. Normally, I guy like me, with good looking face and bunch of skills (*NARCISSISM DETECTED :D*), would have already few girls around. Yesterday in sunday service I brought my Bible and opened it. She was curious, because I usually didn't bring my Bible so often. NOTE: I always bring my Bible, but I've never opened it. I rather like to read the Bible from the people next to me for some personal reason. Viciously she watched over my Bible and asking me how come I bring the Bible this time. Then, she looked into my bookmarks. (S)he: Hey, this is a fine good looking bookmark. Waw, did you have it from a girl? (M)e : Nope, if you see here, it is written that it was from PO FIK UI. Have you...

Clarification

Concerning my previous post , there are things that I need to clarify. If you have read the last paragraph, you would have read a statement that said I forgave him. That's right folks, I forgave him. The reason I wrote down the whole entry was because I was unable to diminished all of my wrath. In order to totally forgive him, I needed to find a place where I can spilled all of my anger, so that I could totally gave forgiveness. Please, do not think that I will start to hate people. In my book, I will NEVER EVER hate people and if I do, I will never ever let the hatred continues. I will always try to help people in the way that I can according to my capacity. Hatred is the most I hate ! After a while, I even realized that I even needed to apologize. It was my inequity to blame him only. My inadequate social ability was also the culprit of it. It was my mistake that I have not answered him in a language that could be understand. I know now, I have a bad language when trying to exp...

Dodol!

http://www.detiknews.com/indexfr.php?url=http://www.detiknews.com/index.php/detik.read/tahun/2006/bulan/12/tgl/02/time/125019/idnews/715411/idkanal/10 Gw gak suka perilaku orang yang seperti ini! Bukannya sudah dikasih tahu di awal kalo tayangan itu memang bukan untuk konsumsi anak-anak. Lagipula, sudah diberi label peringatan untuk tidak melakukannya di rumah. Mengapa pihak WWE masih saja dilemparkan kesalahan? Bukankah seharusnya kita, para ilmuwan dan orang tua, yang harusnya dipersalahkan? Mengapa ilmuwan dipersalahkan? Karena kita tidak memberi pencerahan pada masyarakat dodol ini bahwa adegan kekerasan di televisi dapat mempengaruhi alam bawah sadar manusia sehingga dapat menghasilkan perilaku sosial yang menyimpang (menurut tolak ukur nilai agama). Hal ini merupakan suatu informasi yang penting yang sebenarnya perlu disuarakan kepada masyarakat. Mengapa orang tua dipersalahkan? Yah, siapa suruh anak kecil dibiarkan nonton acara jam 10 malam ke atas? Bukankah pihak televisi sudah...

That's Hurt, You Know...

SHUT UP, YOU TRAITOR! SHUT UP, YOU TRAITOR! SHUT UP, YOU TRAITOR! SHUT UP, YOU TRAITOR! SHUT UP, YOU TRAITOR! SHUT UP, YOU TRAITOR! Well, that was kept resounding in my mind yesterday. I have broke my heart and it was painful. I have betrayed my principal and look what I've got? A wound of my pride. As you all know, I have stated that I will only helps people with FOSS and said go to hell to W*****s users! But, yesterday I have broke my own words to help a friend. But, instead of cooperation, the one that I tried to help asked my integrity. OMG, don't you know the one that I hate the most is when people trying to ask my integrity. That SOHO admin, how dare you insulted my integrity. The story was when a friend call my friend to trouble shoot his network. They've been attacked by virus and it was flooding the network so the network became unusable. Then, it was interesting to help because he is my friend too and I always want to help anybody especially a friend. So, he conn...

Programming Skill

Man, I realize that something is degrading in my life. That is my programming skills! It's been months I haven't code something. I have too much focus on the analytic skills and beyond so I haven't touch the programming skills, yet. This is what I realise when I installed WordpressMU and saw the Drupal setup by Iang. Hmm.. I should get more exercise.

Perasaan Hari Ini

Merasa Bersalah ;(( Sebagai salah satu penumpang gelap di 1***, gw merasa tidak enak, nih. Hera dalam kemarahan yang membara memberikan protes kepada para penginap. Sekali lagi gw minta maaf... maaf.. maaf... maaf... maaf... maaf... maaf... maaf... maaf... maaf... maaf... maaf... maaf... maaf... maaf... maaf... maaf... maaf... maaf... maaf... maaf... maaf... maaf... maaf... maaf....

Secure Domain: OpenSSL + APACHE2 = HTTPS

We're trying to build UI Blog using WordpressMU. Right now it has been set with reverse dns, with the same FQDN with my blog machine here. So, because I can't access my running blog, I'll just put the detail here. So, I have warned you that the following is for true believers coz it would be godly language to some of you. :)) My first objective is to run a secure websvn for my docs. So, I digged for the capability of Apache using SSL/TLS connection (https). Thanks to Van's Apache SSL/TLS mini-HOWTO , I could figure out an interesting part: creating a good signing scheme. Eventually, another psycho idea pops: to create a PKI. Wow, another one pops: integrate it with UI SmartCard. Yeah, we'll be the first university in Indonesia to do so! Ups, another one pops: create web applications connect it to... ah never mind, it's part of my intellectual properties, hehehe.... Well, the steps (IP-related is not real): #1 Install basic debian using debootstrap #> xen-cre...

Dearly Loved

In time in the past, you make a decision. A decision that make someone's heart scattered apart. But, that someone was always loved you and waited for you. That someone waited in front of gate of Million Years. Pledged to come a love that opens the gate. You knew, but you didn't recognise. You have understand but you played dumb. You saw but you got away. The time has come and that someone can no longer wait. Then, suddenly the person had gone. At first, you thought that was great. But, you knew that there was something missing. The way she talked, the way he moved. Now it's just a scar in the heart. Suddenly, that scar feels so deep. Tormented, forsaken, wasted, and dying heart. Yes, with the broken heart you walk towards the future. Some say it could be healed by time passing by. Some even interprete it as a monument of learning. But, no matter what the definition of the cause, what ever reason we try to explain, and what ever sins we try to purge, the wound...

Do You Blog?

Horay, my IBM xServer runs debian SID with Xen and Vserver enabled kernel. It runs good and the hardware problems never arise again, hopefully ever. I have one Xen guest running a MySQL server now and another one running WordpressMU. It's set now, download some themes, done! Now, the problem is: How to aggregate? I'm trying to setup a planet, but it seems I have encounter difficulties. Ow, where is Iang ? He isn't online.... How to set it up? I'm clueless... I want to set it up with debian way, not the hardcore.... Btw, why is this Sangoma card cannot talk to Cisco router using RIC-E1 converter?

Where Are We Going?

I felt uneasy when I read this article by my friend. Another slavery has putted into the act and people not realise that? C'mon, people. I don't hate Microsoft nor any other props company. But, why can't people see that we are selling our country just to seek pleasure over these years. How many people have the fund to have LEGAL software? (Either FOSS or Props) When we use the illegal s/w, we put aside our law. We implement the thinking that law can be overidden. We are in the bottom level of trust in our law. Law is the fundamental of a country. Thus, the law is... Ah, that's enough! No more advocating the truth. Why should I? Eroupeans and other nations around the world is trying to migrate into FOSS system. But, why country such as Indonesia does not have any idealism to put this law enforcement into action? I hate people that protesting card playing in the campuss. C'mon, it's even not a sin to play card. People can even gamble through sports (e.g. soccer ma...

Smartcard Training Part 2

We dine in Izzy. Horay, I can get InfoLINUX there. Mr Edward already off and today we just learn to optimize the code and other aspect of smartcard from him. And then, Mr Jo (I don't know his real name) started from 3 pm is teaching us the off card application that UI gonna use. There is a REAL issue that we are getting from the card. It is about some policy that UI must conform with world standard such as ISO or Belgium something.... Sorry, it's about the security mechanism that will compromise the UI Smartcard. There are some benefits that UI can have from smartcard. But, it means there must be a bigger revitalization of facilities in whole UI. Big investation, but it will get hits in the future, very big hit! Cool... But, there are also some beneficial with today's infrastructure in UI can be handled in term of optimize it with Smartcard management. Some plans are occuring when we see Jakarta plans and the open Smartcard for all banking systems. Our UI Smartcard shall ad...

Smartcard Training Using Smartcafe

OK, now I'm away from Xen or any virtualization. I have a training starting from monday in Hotel Binakarsa. The training is about smartcard and held by Finnet Indonesia (a child from Telkom). We are kindly managed by Mr. Martin. He's a nice person, I kinda like him (not in term of J*s20 or J**b20). The first two and a half day, we're playing the bottom knowledge of smartcard. Programming it up! The smartcard we are using is G&D's (a german company). It's based on Java Smartcard and GP 2.1.1 (or 2.2.1?). Still, we learned OP 2.0.1' (OP 2.0.1 enhanced by VISA). The software we use is SmartCafe 3.0 SP2. It's quite delicated to use the software. We must provide a dongel otherwise we cannot use it! Man, the last time I'm dealing with dongel software is with Surpac and it has a software dongel (other word, bajakens.... ssst.. gw gak pernah coba itu software... asli loh... asli beneran...). Anyway, the limited dongel ... bla.. bla... -_-' This is quite ...

Xen on Etch!

Based on this article , I have managed to make Xen works like a charm. I use Debian Etch. I installed it from netinst. I just pick standart installation with no desktop or any server. Then, I install: # apt-get install xorg # apt-get install openbox openbox-theme obconf pypanel The last three is optional, but it doesn't hurt if I have one. I use pypanel as taskbar because it's lightweight. Well, if you want, you could use the proper ViM version, not the default tiny: # apt-get remove vim-tiny # apt-get install vim Some suggest to install xdm or (K)/(G)DM, but I prefer to use startx script. # apt-get install xen-linux-system-2.6.17-2-xen-686 xen-utils-3.0-unstable-1 xen-ioemu-3.0-unstable xen-docs-3.0-unstable bridge-utils libc6-xen file xen-tools I add xen-tools, because it isn't installed by default. Note that by default xen use network-dummy script for network. I have network in here, so it wouldn't be useful if the guests (domU) cannot reach outside. So, before I res...

Good Distros for Xen

Okay, this review is purely subjective. We only can try para-virtualizaton because of hardware limitation We have tried Xen on these platform: -> Debian Sarge -> Debian Etch -> Ubuntu Dapper -> Ubuntu Edgy -> Fedora Core 6 -> OpenSUSE 10.1 -> Xen Demo CD The most distro I find amusing is OpenSUSE. It has Xen capable YaST so we can manage the Xen from YaST. The downside of this distro is the installation time take long time compared others. Fedora Core 6 (FC6) has a nice graphical boot. It has Xen by default, but the downside is we cannot install another distro. It has it's own tool. The best distro goes to Xen Demo CD. But, it can't be installed into harddrive. It needs some tweaks. :)) Sarge and Dapper use source install. Etch and Edgy have their built kernel but no graphical tools. You have to download and use XenMan. It is great I think. So, the solution? Choose Edgy or Etch for adventurous people. It has great console tools Choose FC6 or openSUSE if yo...

QEMU Installation Attempt 1.0

Okay, the VMWare Server installation attempt is too suck to report. I can't barely do anything hardcore. It just need to run a script and everything is served. Man! How educating! :) Now, I'm trying to do more challenging stuff: QEMU Installation Attempt! (Yeah, sounds cool...) Still, the platform is that wrecked IBM XSeries 225, with specs: 1. 2 pocessors:Intel Xeon 3,06 GHz with HT. (It reads 4 in GNU/Linux...) B-) 2. 2048 MB memory, with ECC. 3. Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5703X Gigabit Ethernet (rev 02)! (We play Gigs now, no more MBps) B-) 4. Dapper plain install. Prepare Stuff Ok, the needed thing to do is download everything needed. Go to QEMU's web and download: 1. QEMU source (if you hardcore enough) 2. QEMU precompiled i386 build (this is the safest, do this kids!) 3. KQemu source package (for great experience) Prepare Your System Do the installation: # sudo apt-get install bridge-utils linux-headers-`uname -r` build-essential libsdl1.2debian-all checkinsta...

Virtualization

I had enough with XEN! My cpu doesn't have latest VMX instructions, or maybe not activated? My IBM xSeries 225 is to precious to dump. In quest of virtualization, I found this vmware server and I'm running it right now with three guests: WinXP SP2, Debian Sarge, Ubuntu. Infact, I'm typing this from one of my machine. I'm trying to run KQemu. But, if time permits and I'm not lazy enough to try the stuff.

XEN Installation Attempt: REVISITED

OK, the culprit of why I'm not able to sleep is: DIFFERENT MEMORY VENDOR! Yes, that's the cause of instability of my cute box. After the memory released from my cutely little xSeries box, no more error on compiling the kernel. YEAH! Btw, I'm sorry to the people that put SMP and PREEMPT together. You guys rocks.... OK! Now I'm gonna start all over again from a scratch!

XEN Installation Attempt 3.0

Yeah, the Xen installation is done. Now, we have 2 domains. But, is IBM xSeries 225 doesn't have HVM technology? If it does, I'm expecting a WinXP into paravirtualization... :)) Btw, according to Register.com , Microsoft is supporting XEN technology. WTF? So, does it means Microsoft wants every supported OS product they have (Win2X, WinXP, Vista, etc) can run GNU/Linux Xen's patched system? Weird... PS: Not really...

XEN Installation Attempt 2.1

With desperado heart, I'm switching my filesystem from reiserfs to ext3. This consideration is because the OpenSUSE 10.2 make the switch too. Maybe, the filesystem is unstable for this kind of use. But, worst than reiserfs, ext3 failed after few seconds in compiling kernel section. In state of hopeless feeling, I install xubuntu-desktop, reboot, and suddenly I realize that I'm making a mistake. What the heck X for? This is a server machine, not a desktop! In state of idiocy, I log into the system, run a terminal and execute top, run a screensaver. Then, a magic happens. The compiler starts working great. It have no more illness. It doesn't have errors anymore. It compiles smoothly. Yay...! Yippeeee...! So, I have an explanation regarding the problem: The machine is too good to be left alone with a big resource hog process. It then felt insulted and have a strike demonstration action by making errors. It needs at least two heavy weight tasks. (Versi Indonesia: Mesinnya nge...

Xen Installation Attempt 2

Still fails. I think this is a hardware issue. I'm trying to compile a kernel from another machine. Hope it'd get an expected result. -- End Of Post-- OK biar postingan ini gag basi, gw tambah common knowledge yang gw ud dapet: MAKEFLAGS --> variabel untuk memberi argumen kepada make, misalnya compiler yang digunakan, optimisasi, dan lain sebagainya.

XEN Installation Attempt

OMG, the time now is 22:22. This already late for me to go home. The cause is because of Xen failed to compile in my box. Btw, I use Dapper as my distro to create a high performance server. When I check in the internet, I find many cpus have Fake SCSI causing GNU/Linux systems to fail. Is it the cause? No way, Jose! My box is ain't that cheap! My box, IBM xSeries 225, is build with *REAL* SCSI Controller on PCI Express. Hmm... is it because Dapper uses GCC 4? Many source code tend to break when compiled because of the strict rules of GCC 4. So, I try to compromise using GCC 3.3 (I think 3.4 should be fine, but it's already done so I stick with GCC 3.3). # export MAKEFLAGS="CC=gcc-3.3" And I modify the cflags for optimation: # export CFLAGS="-march=pentium3 -msse2" OK, the compile seems fine. Wait for few minutes, voila, it stucks! The culprit? After googling and analyzing, I've found out that the culprit is Preemptible! Wtf? Yeah! You... for desktops you...

Masak, sih?

Hmm... gw baru sadar bahwa: 1. Router yang gw geletakin begitu aja dibawah meja dengan RIC-E1 seharga 40 juta dan kalo di perusahaan2 bakal ditaro di rak khusus bukan ditaro kayak kaleng krupuk gitu. 2. Kartu2 yang gw rip dari kompi kosong itu adalah gigabit card yang seharga gaji gw. 3. Kompi2 kosong yang gw oprek2 sekarang ini adalah server2 yang salah satunya bisa buat beli rumah dan beberapa merupakan vendor based. 4. Sangoma yang gw cabut pasang itu gak terdapat di Indonesia Ok, kok, gw jadi serem begini yah?

Pencarian?

Duh, isu paling sensitif yang paling males gw hadapi dari dulu sampe sekarang: (FAQ) Q: JP, lo ud punya pacar belum? A: Belum. Q: Tipe lo seperti apa? A (Diplomatis 1): Yah, nanti aja terserah dijodohin ato mungkin entar ketemu. A (Diplomatis 2): Kalo cewek itu bisa GNU/Linux. A (Diplomatis 3): Ceweknya gag malu2in kalo dibawa ke pesta. A (Diplomatis 4): Gw gag tahu, yang pasti gw bukan homok kayak j**b20 ato j*s20. A (Sebenarnya): Gw kurang tertarik dengan hubungan sosial, apalagi yang nyusahin kayak gitu. Kalo emang harus, cewek itu harus bisa nyentuh hati gw yang (menurut bokap dan org2 dekat) kayak robot. Q: Jep, lo mo gag sama cewek itu? A (Diplomatis 1): Ah, gak, ah, dia kayak ... (intinya kelemahan). A (Diplomatis 2): Ah, kasihan dianya. [humble mode] A (Diplomatis 3): Yah, liat bagaimana nanti. [DEFAULT] A (Sebenarnya): .... -_-' Pokoknya gw paling males klo ditanya soal pasangan. Gw ud mual2 gara2 ultimatum bokap gw sampe semester 3. Aaaaaargh... Tapi, kalo mo sadar, emang...

Sangoma A104 on Ubuntu

OK, after I wrestled with this device, I finally admit that this is an AWESOME device. This device supports GNU/Linux and it has the driver open. Btw, Sangoma AFT A104 is a WAN card. Based on the setup, A104 can use T1 or E1. If I'm not mistaking, it support HDLC and encapsulation PPP (oe and atm). In my place, the AFT cards are used for communicating via teleconference. My affair with the card is to connecting one node to another node (back-to-back) connection. Well, after 1 week of struggling, I've found that the cable must be cross over. DOH! So, it ran smoothly now. How to get it run? Just download the driver and prepare the source code of the running kernel. Yes, the AFT's driver installation is too dumb to use the available kernel headers. So, in order to install the driver and utility, you must have the source code compiled. To have the idea of what's going on, I tried to describe how it'd done in Ubuntu box. #1 Preparation Install the needed packages: kerne...

Rational???

I always keep my blog away from any religious post, not this time. I'm very pissed by some people when they say religion is ridiculous, religion is the source of war, and religion is unscientific. Furthermore, about Christianity they speak loud about impossible things about Trinity. Here is my defense. 0. Religion is the root of war If I say Christian, there would be a total of variation each individual around the globe called themselves Christians. The diversity in religion alone makes the doctrines varied to each person. The doctrines even desecrated with the thought of man. THE THOUGHT OF MAN! That is the cause of war. If you see the religion of the world: Islam, Christian, Budhism, etc, they said that God comes to man to save humanity from violence. Each self-proclaiming as the way to have eternal peace. So, actually no religion offers war to its disciples. But, the leaders are! They are the one that should be fixed. I. There is no God We speak scientifically. Of all the knowl...

Knowledge Extraction

There should be layers in knowledge extraction. The problem with today's KE is they often put the K user into a situation where they are uncomfort to share their implicit K. In example, how many of you hackers out there have tricks that you want to share but failed to show many aspects that you have because you want to have your knowledge systematic? Or, how many of you that write tutorials covers all that you know and share? To sum this, I have a case example to explain each layer. LAYER 0: Crude Information To people in this layer, they should not be limited of how to express their thought. The type of people of this layer can write what ever in their minds. Information in this level should be in form of Q&A (questions and answers). Why? Questions are the basic gate to gain knowlegde. Moreover, questions sometime have hidden informations, such as what the problem occurs e.g. "I'm using X as gfx card, why can't I have MxN resolution?". Answers are the main k...

Celebration 100 Years of Azusa St.

Yeah, that is the title of the ceremony. It was held in last saturday. It was held by all (most?) Pentacostal churches including my church. I was an usher. The show was terrific, so many get healed by miracles. The preacher especially looking for the disable people, but cancers also get healed. What a marvelous day.... The funny thing is the ceremony was held in Gelora Bung Karno (Bung Karno Stadium). What the funny thing? Well, if I recall Indonesian govs wants to prepare the stadium for 2007 Asian Cup, cmiiw. So, the stadium should not be used by any show other than football match. Well, I may be wrong or PSSI are getting dumb to plan anything for atleast 6 months in advance. Ah, I may be thankful for that. What a marvelous day.
To everyone that think otherwise than anyone else: DON'T GIVE UP! They may shut your dream and say impossible things. Well, the only thing that make it impossible is the thought of yourself creating a wall where you cracked. A wise man said: Life is like foreign language and everybody said it wrongly. Life is like a fractal. No one knows and it is difficult to watch. But as a grand design, it illustrates the most beautiful painting. Do you know rainbow comes after the rain? Today maybe your dark day, tommorow shall come a rainbow of your life. Everything is in place. Everything is intact. The only wrong thing is your way of thinking and seeing things. Why don't you look around? You may see a person have a better life than you. See it for yourself. No one have their lives without a hard time. You may see the person in the person best fruit. No one have the right to say you are nothing, crap, sh*t, or junk. If they have done so, they are trying to say that to Your Creator. Don...

Temptation of JP (Live from Warnet)

Man, so much temptation I've here... Not just hot pics downloaded by other perverts, but you know the one that us as computer scientists tempted to do.... I'm so pissed that my current Warnet can play BattleNet only in a server and it only can be registered by one IP. OK, I've got seduced to change the IP address and try to register again in other name, my nick. Hmm... if I can change my name, how 'bout bypassing the billing system and, let's say, put the bill about 1 hour? Nobody notice in the crowd about it until it's too late. Hmm... take it easy, JP. Take a deep breath and blow it out slowly. Easy... easy... good How 'bout open a friendster page. You have a new friend request there... OK, then I tried to open the friendster. HOLY COW!!! (it's connected with COW in that mapping game alongside with CASH COW and.. what the??) I open it and I already logged as someone else. COOL.. eh I mean NO! That lucky person... how dare he challenged me! How dare he...

Gibberish Jabberish (Lame CV)

Hmm... I've just thinking about something when I've write down my resume (CV). There was an interesting part that I am thinking rite now. Man, I've wondered why on earth my CV was not so many to write off. OK, started with organization experiences. Eversince in highschool, I have bitter thought about student organisations. Student council or OSIS for example, I think this was a fraud organization with lack of discipline and they had an ospek kind of thing. I disrespect them for later. Later, my friend told me that people in higher education have better work attitude. He said that student organization in the university is kind of professional and have no jibberish stuff. But, prove me wrong, I see student council in F******m and B*M U* have the bad thought out of me. They shattered my dream of professionalism. F******m SC, doesn't have enough reputation to live for. Even so, their throughputs and visions are low. Can they envision something? Nope, they even have the dead...

Your Ultimate Journey: Welcome to The Powerful GNU/Linux Debian Ubuntu

Because of the increasing use of Ubuntu in the campuss, I will shed a light to have your Ubuntu shining. This is the ultimate installation noob's guide. Preparation For you folks whom want Ubuntu only OS, there is no preparation necessary except to get your installer CD/DVD. For those that already have an OS such as Windoze, you must prepare a good partition. Normally, 5 Gigs (Gigabytes) is enough. But, for ultimate fun, I recommend 10 Gigs spares for the linux partition. [NOTE: Partition is like dividing your harddrive into pieces of drive, just remember apple pie.] Installing Ubuntu Base System I assume we are using Ubuntu 6.06 (Dapper Drake). Boot from CD: Turn on your computer and put the installation CD into the CD/DVD drive and select to boot from CD/DVD drive (often by pressing button). Just press to boot from the CD/DVD. After you in the graphical mode, you could see a little picture called icon where in the bottom of it says "Install". Now, move your mouse poi...

2nd Class Citizens

Ouch, they made us, Computer Science graduate-wanna-be as a 2nd class citizens. Why on earth .... We already in a line, but they told us to step back. What kind of attitude is that? But, as the word says: Justice prevail! We have our photograph taken with our dean. We also have a glance to do insane things like: 1. Take picture with all of other faculty sign. 2. Create a riot. 3. Have our picture taken exclusively. Man, if in life we feel like injustice broad upon us. Just don't take it hard, have it easy and feel grateful. For there is something even better is in front of us. Life is a path full of fog, anywhere you go is the same.

Hello, Faith!

My church just finished their Grand Meeting (Musyawarah Besar/Mubes). It ended with a ... Ah males gw latihan bahasa Inggris. Tadi pagi ngadain ibadah raya dengan gw sebagai Keyboardist. Ibadah tadi pagi itu selain dihadiri oleh Gembala Sidang, Pendeta, dan pelayan lainnya dari seluruh Indonesia, dihadiri pula oleh gereja cabang dari Jabodetabek. Fyi, gereja gw, walaupun kecil dan terkesan seperti rumah, adalah gereja pusat yang punya cabang cukup banyak dari Sumatera Utara hingga ke Papua dan Irian Barat (gw gag tau mana yang paling barat...). Anyway, gw cukup terkejut dengan animo yang ada ketika pujian dilagukan. Betapa semangat jemaat membuat gw berapi-api. Man, it was ages ago when I've got this feeling. Sungguh, kebaktian tadi beda banget. Gw ngerasa banget sukacita dan kekuatan spiritualnya. Gimana gag semangat, bayangin aja, seorang gembala sidang yang ud usia 60an masih mau menari dan bersemangat. Apalagi kita yang masih muda, tengsin abis kalo kalah semangat! Hehehe... Fy...

What the world need

When I watched Oprah, there was a show when a devoted Christian must lived within Islamic community about 30 days. He lives at a devoted Moslem. One of the impresive conversation: Moslem host: "Tell me 5 Moslems that you know." Christian: "Osama bin Laden, Saddam Husein ..." Moslem host: "Oh my God, we are terrorists. How 'bout Mohammed Ali and Hakeem Ola.." You know what starts all the problems in the world? Misunderstanding! Yes, the misinterpretation of people is the cause of wars! Many Americans think that Christians and Non-Christians are not terrorist, but Moslems are. Many Middle Eastern think that Israel is Dajal and American is Satan. Many Israelis think that no one like Hitler will ever crushed them if they have their own homeland. Why they think so? AMERICAN SIDE: Many Americans that never in touch with Moslems are shocked when the 9/11 occured. They think Islam is the next Anti Christ after the fallen of Communist. This religion is the most...
