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 checkinstall

*> bridge-utils is for bridging your network. [Human Language: is to make all of your guest OSes use your ethernet card to connect to outside world, e.g. LAN, Internet]
*> build-essential is for compiling everything.
*> linux-headers is for compiling kqemu kernel module.
*> libsdl1.2debian-all is for your qemu to runs well.
*> checkinstall is not needed. :-P

Install Your QEMU

First, just compile your kqemu package, do the three magic dance (./configure, make, make install).

# tar xvfz $YOUR_DOWNLOAD_DIRECTORY/kqemu-1.3.0pre9.tar.gz
# cd kqemu-1.3.0pre9
# ./configure && make && sudo make install

Second, as root (use sudo) tar your safe tarballs from QEMU's web. The following will install your qemu in /usr/local directory

# sudo tar xvfz $YOUR_DOWNLOAD_DIRECTORY/qemu-0.8.2-i386.tar.gz -C /

STAN vs. UI

Ugh, kasihan banget adek gue. Saking kepinteran dia jadi dapet Akuntansi UI dan STAN. Jadi bingung mau masuk yang mana. Beberapa orang (termasuk orang tua gue), menyarankan masuk STAN. Gue malah memperburuk suasana dengan membela memasuki Akuntansi UI, maklum bela almamater. Duh, gue jadi merasa bersalah bikin dia ragu-ragu. Kira-kira enakan masuk mana, yah? Gue juga gak tahu keuntungan masing-masing. Hasil debat sementara: ~ Untuk jangka panjang masuk UI, untuk jangka pendek STAN. ~~Tapi, dia itu kan cewek, ntar pas menikah kemungkinan besar karir terhambat. Eits, ntar, dulu, sekarang kan jamannya emansipasi, bisa aja cowoknya yang jadi BRT. ~ STAN sarang korupsi, kalo masuk STAN jadi pegawai negeri. Kalo mau kaya harus korupsi. Tapi kalo masuk UI, lulus masuk jadi akuntan publik. Sekarang ini, orang membayar akuntan publik untuk memanipulasi nilai pajak dan aset. *SIGH*. Jadi gak ada yang beres ~ dll. Yah, udah gue jadi bingung, apa lagi dia nanya saran gue. Buah, gue gak pengalaman ...

Installing Goodix Fingerprint Reader Driver on Fedora

I currently have a Lenovo Thinkpad L14 laptop equipped with fingerprint. I was `belok` from KDE Neon to use Fedora 40 because of someone. Now I am tempted to enable my fingerprint: lsusb | grep -i fingerprint Bus 001 Device 004: ID 27c6:55b4 Shenzhen Goodix Technology Co.,Ltd. Fingerprint Reader Dump the firmware Assuming this is a fresh install, lets do some magic by getting some dependencies: sudo dnf install gcc git python-pip python-devel openssl Let's get the source code: git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/goodix-fp-linux-dev/goodix-fp-dump.git cd goodix-fp-dump Create an isolated Python environment: python -m venv .v source .v/bin/activate Do the magic: sudo su pip install -r requirements.txt python run_55b4.py exit There are some python scripts available. I run run_55b4.py because my device ID is 27c6: 55b4 . It will spell some nonsense, which is a good thing. That nonsense actually the firmware captured by our device. Also, I typed exit becaus...

Vibe Coding Workflow

I am currently working for having A.I. workflow for generating projects. There are two things that need to be tackled for that: 1) hallucinations; and 2) old codes. I have met several patterns to tackle those two and just need to formulate the patterns into a general flow. Thankfully, a video of building fullstack app using A.I. from Raf Dev channel inspired me to make the formulation. He used multiple A.I. engines to his need: He used Google Gemini to onboard his ideas and summarized it. He forked a boilerplate of NextJS project into a new project. Then, he added the summary from Google Gemini into a file for context. He used QWEN Code, a QWEN3 code engine that is a fork from Gemini CLI, to build the project. When working with an existing project, A.I. will take the whole project as a context. It also means that it will stick with the version used by the libraries. It also will try to update its knowledge based on the common pattern in the project. Most of the time, it will use the c...
