Setting Koneksi Dial Up Menggunakan Handphone Dengan Koneksi Bluetooth di Ubuntu 11.04 Natty Narwhal

Ubuntu 11.04 Natty Narwhal hadir dengan membawa cukup banyak peningkatan fitur, tampilan yang lebih elegan dan fresh, serta software-software baru yang bagus. Untuk software, Ubuntu Natty menghadirkan LibreOffice 3.3 (sebuah fork baru dari OpenOffice.org yang nampaknya akan jadi standar office di beberapa distribusi mayor), Mozilla Firefox 4.01 (versi yang sangat ditunggu-tunggu) dan integrasi Banshee dalam volume control Gnome, sekaligus menggantikan Rhythmbox sebagai default music player (saya sangat suka dengan fitur baru ini, sangat elegan).

Namun, dari semua itu, peningkatan fitur baru yang sangat saya sukai adalah : Ubuntu Natty sudah bisa membuat koneksi dial up menggunakan handphone dengan memakai koneksi bluetooth ! Ini sangat-sangat bagus dikarenakan saat ini harga handphone sudah semakin murah (handphone 3g sudah dibawah satu juta). Baiklah, mari kita bahas fitur baru yang maknyus ini.

Pertama, buatlah pairing antara komputer dengan handphone. Caranya, colokkan bluetooth dongle kita, lalu klik pada icon bluetooh di bagian atas dan pilih Add New Device. Ikuti saja wizard-nya, dan pada satu bagian, centanglah opsi bisa melakukan koneksi dial up memakai koneksi bluetooth – handphone. Lalu akan muncul wizard yang sangat mudah untuk diikuti. Pertama, pilih negara, dan lalu pilih operator. Ubuntu sudah mempunyai list semua operator GSM di Indonesia, mulai dari 3, Indosat hingga AXIS. Pilih saja operator yang kita gunakan (saya memakai operator 3).

setelah wizard selesai, pada applet Network Manager, pilihlah nama handphone kita, dan tunggu. Nanti akan dikenali pilihan nama operator, misal: 3 GPRS. Pilihlah nama operator kita yang muncul dalam Network Manager, dan jadilah Connection Established! Sangat simpel dan asyik betul :)

Berikut ini adalah catatan teknis periperial yang saya pakai:

Handphone : Nokia 2330-c (koneksi internet GPRS/EDGE)

Operator : 3 (Three)

Bluetooth : K-one Bluetooth USB dongle

Komputer : Intel Pentium IV 2,4 GHz, Memori 512 MB

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 : ...

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.
