Mencari Keberuntungan : Instalasi SPSS 15 Dengan Wine






Setelah berhasil menginstalasi SPSS 11.5 dengan menggunakan CrossOver 7.10, saya mencoba menginstalasi SPSS 15 dengan Wine. Sistem yang saya gunakan adalah :


# Ubuntu 7.10 Kernel 2.6.22-generic
# Wine-0.9.59


Secara keseluruhan, proses instalasi lancar dan cepat. Pun ketika 'installation finished', SPSS bisa langsung saya jalankan dari 'Wine>Programs>SPSS'. Loading cukup capat, bisa masuk ke window kerja SPSS, namun hanya beberapa saat, setelah itu macet. Kenapa ya?


Karena penasaran, akhirnya saya coba jalankan manual dari Terminal untuk mengetahui error apa saja yang sebenarnya terjadi. 


$ wine ./wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/SPSS/spsswin.exe


Ternyata ada ratusan DLL library yang tidak ada. Saya bingung. Saya coba jalankan 'winecfg', dan library-library yang di butuhkan pun tidak ada secara built-in di Wine. Akhirnya saya mencoba “cara yang sangat jahat”, yaitu menggunakan library DLL native milik Windows. Saya copy semua library DLL yang ada di direktori C:\Windows\System32 dari komputer Windows milik rekan saya ^_^ Kemudian saya letakan di direktori Wine di /home/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32, dan akhirnya SPSS 15 berjalan dengan sangat lancar!


Karena saya sadar saya melakukan “perbuatan jahat”, akhirnya saya un-install lagi SPSS tersebut, dan secara keseluruhan saya tidak puas. Kalau mau, sebenarnya kita bisa mencari DLL di support Microsoft secara free. Nah, karena begitu banyaknya library yang di butuhkan, hal ini bukan pekerjaan yang mudah. Cara pintas yang paling simpel adalah kita membuat skrip untuk men-download dan menginstalasi library tambahan yang dibutuhkan Wine seperti winetricks. Kita bisa menggunakan skrip winetricks dan tinggal mengganti dan menambah file yang kita butuhkan :D


Walalupun begitu, karena di kost saya tidak ada koneksi internet, tetap saja mustahil menggunakan Winetricks. Bisa saja sih, saya mencari warnet yang menggunakan Linux, kemudian saya membuat direktori 'fake' wine untuk sekedar meletakan file download-an dari skrip winetricks, tapi tetap saja merepotkan T_T


Karena opsi menggunakan kembali windows sudah saya tutup rapat-rapat, akhirnya saya memilih menggunakan SPSS 11.5 saja, yang sudah berjalan tanpa masalah sedikit pun di Linux.


Selamat ber-Linux !

winetrik bisa jalan tanpa internet, asal program2 yg perlu di download sudah disimpan di folder wietricks cache. jalankan aja di tempat yg ada internet seperti upk, terus copy folder wietrickscache ke rumah, jalankan wietricks dan voila...

Ubuntu Kylin 19.04 Review : A Gorgeous Windows 10 Clone

It's been quite a while since the last post I wrote in this blog. My daily life prevents me to write another stuff about Linux Desktop, and now I'm curious to take a look to the Ubuntu Kylin 19.04. Ubuntu is always be my favorite distro. It supports huge number of hardwares, it has probably the largest Linux software repository. It is also --the most important thing-- very easy to install, even for beginners.  But for some couple of years, because of technical reason, I stopped to play around with the Ubuntu releases. I stood for KDE Neon and became my primary OS because of its simplicity and the look. Few days ago Ubuntu has released its newer version, Ubuntu 19.04 codenamed Disco Dingo. I'm yes impressed by the progress Ubuntu developer has made, especially the way they arrange the GNOME desktop to match the Ubuntu theme. But the most interesting flavor of this release is Ubuntu Kylin. It's an official Ubuntu flavor, designed for Chinese People with its own...

How To Speed Up Your KDE Plasma Desktop (KDE4)

KDE is one of the oldest desktop environment in Linux. While GNOME (the other desktop that as old as KDE) is trying to built its own style of user interface, KDE from the beginning seems to mimics the Microsoft Windows' "classic" user interface. Thus, KDE has its own user base, especially for them who still in love with the Windows' philosophy : a simple desktop, with a single taskbar in the bottom, and a start menu in the left. Personally, I love KDE. It's gorgeous and eyecandy. But sometimes, I feel KDE is little bit slow in my older hardwares. So, after some experiences, I've found some tweak how to make KDE Plasma Desktop Runs Faster . 1. Change The Compositing Engine  Go to System Settings>Desktop Effect>Advanced , and change the Compositing type from OpenGL 2.0 to XRender. 2. Remove All Bloatware Apps There are some uneeded apps installed in Kubuntu (my favorite KDE distro) and you could safely remove them. Here are my list : ...

Q4OS 4.6 "Gemini" Review: A Real Hidden Gem

Distro hopping is a fun adventure. It's a pure joy you can only find in GNU/Linux world. It's a nature you want to escape from what I call 'comfort ecosystem'. You need to play, trying something new even for a few little differences. For a long time I've been using Ubuntu family as my daily driver. The main reason is probably just same as any other Ubuntu user: it's reliable. You can't go wrong with Ubuntu. It works almost in any device, even for the newest one. It is the ultimate Linux distro you can rely on. However, sometimes, you will feel bored. The temptation to flirt with other new distro is unbearable. There are a lot of hot new Linux distros waiting to try.  A Real Hidden Gem I've known this distro for a quite long time. At first, it offered Trinity Desktop as the main desktop, which brings me the sweet memories about KDE3. It is simply fast, stable, almost without any issue, and it is based on Debian. I install it on my old machine and I love t...
