Melepas Lelah dengan Penguin !




Seringkali kita mendapai kesuntukan dalam bekerja di depan komputer. Ada banyak pilihan untuk sedikit menghibur diri dengan desktop Linux kita. Kalau kita ada koneksi internet, tentu kita bisa ber-facebook atau googling mencari bacaan-bacaan ringan. Alternatif lain (dan kalau kita tak ada koneksi internet) adalah bermain game.


Di lingkungan desktop Linux, ada banyak sekali pilihan game, baik yang ringan maupun yang agak berat. Salah satu game yang cukup saya sukai karena keringanannya dan ke-lucu-annya adalah Frozen Bubble! Game ini hampir mirip dengan jenis-jenis game Zuma Deluxe, cuma tokoh yang ada adalah si maskot Linux Tux Penguin dengan versi wajah yang lebih imut.


Permainan Frozen Bubble sangat sederhana. Kita hanya perlu menembakan bola dengan warna yang sesuai dengan deretan bola yang keluar dari atas. Mirip dengan Zuma. Letak kesegaraanya tentu pada tokoh Tux yang menembakan bola dengan tuas. Ekspresi khas kartun Tux yang memang menjadi daya tarik tersendiri bagi Linux!


Game ini ada di repositori distribusi besar. Bahkan distribusi Mandriva Linux, menyertakan game ini dalam DVD installer default bundel mereka.


Cukup menyegarkan untuk mengisis kekosongan jam penat kita!

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 : ...

BAM Huawei Mobile Partner For Linux. Download and Install.

Click to enlarge Profile management Broadband connection is one of the most used internet connections, alongside wired and wi-fi internet connection. And the most used device to use broadband connection is USB Modem (GSM/CDMA), and one of the most used brands is Huawei, a world-recognized Chinese manufacture that focuses to produce great networking devices (modems, router etc). It is probably the most popular brand from China and I have to say that Huawei is a great product. Because of this I decided to buy a CDMA USB modem from Huawei. And greatly, this has already been recognized by Linux from so long time ago and so I can use the modem easily with GNOME's Network Manager. But later I found a problem : how to top up my prepaid internet account? To top up my prepaid internet account, I have to send a SMS to the provider and I can't do this on Linux. With forced, I temporarily used Mobile Partner application on Windows to buy / top up my prepaid internet account. ...
