Due to the upcoming release of Dropbox 0.8 and its ability to support Application Indicators (and custom icons), many people have been creating icons for it to blend into the Ubuntu-Mono icon set.

However I have yet to find a set that is made in the Elementary style, so I decided to do it myself (the initial idea is based on these icons)

Below is a link to the GNOME-Look page where you can download them. Once the ZIP file has downloaded, you need to extract the files into ~/.dropbox-dist/icons

What do you think?

I’m back from conference touring (which was awesome btw – more about that later) and Tom reminded me that the release parties for 4.5 are not planned yet. And the release is planned for August 4th, so in a bit more than a week. OMG!

Clearly it is time to fix this situation and give the world a chance to meet some cool KDE people. So go to the 4.5 release party planning page and check if there is one near you already. If there is one then sign up for it and have fun. If there is none yet it’s time to start one. Pick a date and time (preferably within 3 weeks of release) and reserve a place in a local restaurant, bar, meeting room, university, whateverelsefits. Add it to the wiki page, spread the word and then have lots of fun.

Of course it’s my pleasure to announce the first of hopefully many release parties: Stuttgart, Germany on 7th of August. Exact place and time is still to be determined. Check the wiki page every now and then for updates.

For those who have never planned or attended a release party: You can do pretty much everything you want from simply getting together for a beer and chatting to full day event with talks, workshops and so on. It’s up to you. You can find a few tips on the community wiki. Everyone is welcome from active contributor to interested user. Just let the person organizing it know you’re coming so they can plan better.

Apa itu MongoDB? Itu loh, engine basis data non-relational (atau lagi ngetren dengan sebutan NoSQL) yang schema-free dan: *

• Document oriented
• Javascript enabled
• Fast, scalable, available, and reliable

Lalu, apa yang membuat MongoDB istimewa? **

• Native language integration
• Rich data types
• Atomic modifiers
• Dynamic queries

* & ** Dikutip dari presentasinya Mathias Stearn dari 10gen.

Saya sendiri belum pernah mencoba MongoDB ini, dan tertarik untuk mencoba setelah mendengar podcast TemanMacet.com eps #49. Karena MongoDB sudah ada di repo Ubuntu 10.04, caranya install juga jadi gampang. Kalau lebih suka GUI silakan pake synaptic tapi kalau mau sedikit bermain-main di terminal silakan buka terminalnya, lalu ketik:

sudo apt-get install mongodb

Instalasi selesai, mari mencoba mengakses shell mongodb dengan perintah:

mongo

Oops, malah errot

mongos: error while loading shared libraries: libmozjs.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Ternyata ada pustaka yang kurang, artinya kita harus install paket tambahan dan karena pustaka libmozjs ini adanya di pake xulrunner-dev, marilah memasang paket tersebut, kembali ke teminal

sudo apt-get install xulrunner-dev

Kemudian buat sebuah symbolic link ke /usr/lib:

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.2.6/libmozjs.so /usr/lib/

Terakhir hidupkan ulang layanan mongodb:

sudo service mongodb start

Coba lagi akses shell si mongodb

mongo

mongodb shell

Mastershaper adalah sebuah web-based bandwidth management yang cukup sederhana, cukup mudah digunakan apabila tidak punya cukup waktu baca-baca manual tc atau htb untuk management bandwidth dadakan

berikut adalah cara instalasi yang saya lakukan di ubuntu. pada kasus ini ubuntu yang saya gunakan adalah ubuntu 8.04.4 LTS.

install dulu lampp server

admin@gateway:~$ sudo su
root@gateway:/home/admin$ apt-get install apache2 php5-mysql php5-pear mysql-server

download dan ekstrak mastershaper versi 0.44

root@gateway:/home/admin$ cd /opt
root@gateway:/opt$ wget http://www.mastershaper.org/files/mastershaper_0.44.tar.bz2
root@gateway:/opt$ tar xvjf mastershaper.044.tar.bz2
root@gateway:/opt$ mv MasterShaper-0.44 mastershaper

install paket pendukung phplayersmenu

root@gateway:/opt$ cd /opt/mastershaper/htdocs
root@gateway:/opt/mastershaper/htdocs$ wget http://easynews.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/phplayersmenu/phplayersme...
root@gateway:/opt/mastershaper/htdocs$ tar xvzf phplayersmenu-3.2.0-rc.tar.gz
root@gateway:/opt/mastershaper/htdocs$ mv phplayersmenu-3.2.0 phplayersmenu

install paket pendukung jpgraph versi comunity

root@gateway:/opt/mastershaper/htdocs$ mkdir jpgraph
root@gateway:/opt/mastershaper/htdocs$ cd jpgraph
root@gateway:/opt/mastershaper/htdocs/jpgraph$ wget http://hem.bredband.net/jpgraph2/jpgraph-3.0.7.tar.bz2
root@gateway:/opt/mastershaper/htdocs/jpgraph$ tar xvjf jpgraph-3.0.7.tar.bz2

buat file password akses apache untuk mastershaper dengan user administrator

root@gateway:/opt/mastershaper/htdocs/jpgraph$ cd
root@gateway:~$ htpasswd -c /opt/mastershaper/htdocs/.htpasswd administrator

virtualhost untuk akses mastershaper

root@gateway:~$vim /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/shaper

isi dengan

<VirtualHost *:80>
	ServerName mastershaper
	DocumentRoot /opt/mastershaper/htdocs
	AllowOverride AuthConfig
	AuthName "Add your login message here."
	AuthType Basic
	AuthUserFile /opt/mastershaper/htdocs/.htpasswd
	AuthGroupFile /dev/null
	require user administrator
</VirtualHost>

berikan akses sudo untuk mastershaper

root@gateway:~$ echo “www-data ALL=(root) NOPASSWD:$/opt/mastershaper/htdocs/shaper_loader.sh” >> /etc/sudoers

berikutnya adalah membuatkan database dan user database khusus untuk mastershaper

root@gateway:~$ mysql -uroot -p
mysql> CREATE USER ‘shaper’@'localhost’ IDENTIFIED BY ‘pass’;

• silakan ganti pass sesuai keinginan

mysql> CREATE DATABASE shaper_db
mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON shaper_db TO ‘shaper’@'localhost’ WITH GRANT OPTION;

selanjutnya anda tinggal menambahkan dns record untuk mastershaper sesuai nama virtualhost yang digunakan. dan akses via browser ke alamat http://mastershaper
selanjutnya akan ada menu configurasi sesuaikan dengan konfigurasi yang telah dibuat sebelumnya..

akhirnya mastershaper telah terinstall dan selamat bersenang-senang menjadi admin yang kejam
