Easy Edit Grub With Grub Customizer

noreply@blogger.com (n0wn) — Thu, 16 Jun 2011 20:04:00 +0700

Grub Customizer is a new graphical GRUB2 settings manager. For now, it only allows you to edit the GRUB2 menu entries: reorder, rename or add/remove entries. Since these are actually scripts which generate the boot.cfg file, Grub Customizer changes the actual script order and then generates a new boot.cfg so if you then run "sudo update-grub", your customization won't be overwritten.
Grub Customizer comes with an Ubuntu PPA (the first packages have been uploaded only a few minutes ago) so to install it in Ubuntu (Lucid, Maverick, Natty), use the following commands:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:danielrichter2007/grub-customizer
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install grub-customizer

Think after Installing Ubuntu 11.04

noreply@blogger.com (n0wn) — Thu, 12 May 2011 17:50:00 +0700

Ubuntu 11.04 aka Natty Narwhal is relase. If you upgrading to Natty Narwhal, maybe you can tweak some apss.

Install Compiz Config Manager and tweak it.

sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager

Then search for CompizConfig Settings Manager in Dash and you'll find the Unity-related options under the "Unity" Compiz plugin. Some other options are under other plugins so check those out too.

Using CCSM, you'll be able to tweak the Unity launcher reveal mode, hide behavior, change some Unity-specific keyboard shortcuts, change the Unity launcher icon size, the top panel opacity, tweak various animations and more.

Canonical retires Shipit

noreply@blogger.com (n0wn) — Wed, 6 Apr 2011 02:20:00 +0700

Canonical have announced that they will be discontinuing the free CD shipping service Shipit.

Writing on the Canonical blog Ubuntu‘s Gerry Carr said that the company would instead focus on their CD distributor programme and shipping CDs directly to LoCos – Local Ubuntu community teams – instead.

A brief history of Shipit

Shipit distributed Ubuntu CDs free of cost to those who requested them.

Primarily aimed at enabling users with low or non-broadband download speeds, the server shipped millions of CDs worldwide to people who weren’t able to download it themselves and made millions of people, like me, discover Ubuntu.

So, what happens now?

Starting with 11.04, users will no longer be able to order free CDs, but CDs will continue to be provided to approved LoCos through a Shipit-like programme.

CDs will remain available for users to buy from the Canonical store, or, as has always been the case, the option of burning your own for duplication and distribution exists.

Gerry also hinted that Canonical would be launching cloud based free online trial service. This would likely be similar to that already offered by the Edubuntu project.

How to Add Facebook Like Button to Blogger

noreply@blogger.com (n0wn) — Fri, 1 Apr 2011 01:49:00 +0700

Facebook introduced the new “Like” button which enables your blog visitors to share your blog content on their Facebook profiles with one click. After the launch of this button I have seen many bloggers are adapting it. So why not add it to blogger.

For an example, click the below button to “Like” this post :

First Go to Layout (Design) > Edit HTML and check “Expand Widget Templates”.

Second Find <data:post.body/> and immediately after it add the following script :

<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == &quot;item&quot;'>
<iframe allowTransparency='true'  expr:src='&quot;http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=&quot;  + data:post.url + &quot;&amp;layout=standard&amp;show_faces=false&amp;width=450&amp;action=like&amp;font=arial&amp;colorscheme=light&amp;height=35&quot;' frameborder='0' scrolling='no' style='border:none; overflow:hidden; width:450px; height:35px;'/>
</b:if>

Note that conditional tags are used to
show these Facebook Like buttons only for post pages. If you want to
show it even in home or archive pages remove these tags marked in red.

How to create your own QR Codes in Ubuntu

noreply@blogger.com (n0wn) — Sat, 26 Mar 2011 09:06:00 +0700

A QR code (short for Quick Response) is a specific matrix barcode (or two-dimensional code), readable by dedicated QR barcode readers and camera phones. The code consists of black modules arranged in a square pattern on a white background. The information encoded can be text, URL or other data.

Common in Japan, where it was created by Toyota subsidiary Denso-Wave in 1994, the QR code is one of the most popular types of two-dimensional barcodes. QR is the abbreviation for Quick Response, as the creator intended the code to allow its contents to be decoded at high speed.

The technology has seen a large uptake in Japan and South Korea. However, in the west there has been a considerably slower adoption of QR Codes.

How can I create a QR code in Linux?

The creation of QR codes in Ubuntu is simple, albeit command-line based. You will need to install ‘qrencode‘ from the Ubuntu Software Center - you can click here to install it or search for ‘qrencode’ manually.

Once Qrencode has been successfully installed you can create QR codes using the Terminal and the following command :

qrencode -o [filename.png] ‘[text/url/information to encode]‘

To create a link to the Google homepage with the output file called ‘google.png’ and made in your homefolder you would run :

qrencode -o blogcupu-newbie.png 'http://blogcupu-newbie.blogspot.com'

This outputs the following: -

You can make the ‘pixels’ used in the code bigger by using the ‘-s‘ argument. Let’s make the same QR code but with the square pixels increased to 6×6 and have the .png saved to our desktop- or any other directory :

qrencode -o ~/Desktop/blogcupu-newbie.png -s 8 'http://blogcupu-newbie.blogspot.com'

Unity personalization

noreply@blogger.com (n0wn) — Sat, 26 Mar 2011 02:03:00 +0700

In such a short time of development, improvements in speed, aesthetics, usability and more have come to life in the Compiz version of Unity. But, what about customization? “If you have no will to change it, you have no right to criticize it”, a wise man once said.

Unity after install: nice, but unoriginal!

The purpose here is not to teach you in detail how to customize the various options, but rather to just show you where they are and that they do exist. As for creating a style, that’s up to your creativity!

Unity panel/icons to follow users theme

Changing wallpaper, icons, theme.

Considered by many as the “killer app” on linux, theming returned to Ubuntu on February 17, 2011. Tweakers rejoice! The theme applies to the panels and everything else like it used to. The icons of the launcher now adheres to your chosen icon set as well. Cool. The icons in the launcher can be moved around or completely removed as well.

Unity Compiz options allow changing animations, panel transparency, size & more

The options to choose between ‘Blink’ or ‘Pulse’ animations on launching apps and apps demanding attention is available. Optionally both can be set to ‘None’. The transparency of the panel can be chosen along with the size of the launcher. Personally I set the panel a bit smaller for use on my netbook and made my panel slightly transparent because it looks sexy.

Personalized panel & launcher.

Put your own twist to your Workspaces

As I read through the comments of some users from different posts, many thought that the gray reflexion area when the Workspace Switcher is activated is too large. Although being a mandatory Icon in Unity, it does not mean users can’t change it up. Simply open Compiz Config, go to the Expo settings and there you go! Change every detail you can think of.

here is my end result

Unity Lenses: Endless possibilities!

In 11.04,2 lenses are included (previously named places). The Files Lens and the Applications Lens. Where it gets interesting is that you can create and add lenses to the shell as you please. Still in early stages of implementation, lenses add a depth of customization never before seen. Many hope once there is enough lenses out there that they will be easily available from the Software Center. Here are some great ideas from some of you awesome readers:

AskUbuntu Lens
Package Lens
Active Project Lens
RSS Lens
Inbox Lens
People Lens

And so much more!

A lot of people seem to forget that nearly all the personalization from Classic Ubuntu can still be used with Unity. Screenlets are back in development and work just fine with the new Desktop Ubuntu. The much loved Faenza Icons & Nautilus-Elementary can still rock out Natty. The almighty Compiz Fusion is in full force with all of it’s power too.

Ubuntu 11.04: same great Ubuntu, all new features.

Like what you see? We would love to see how you readers can personalize Natty! Post images in the comments bellow.

The new default wallpaper for Ubuntu 11.04 has been released.

noreply@blogger.com (n0wn) — Thu, 24 Mar 2011 15:29:00 +0700

The new default wallpaper for Ubuntu 11.04 has been released.

Sporting ‘subtle changes’ with ‘new light refractions’, the updated wallpaper for the April release echoes evolution rather than revolution.

Writing on the reasoning behind the subtle changes Ubuntu’s Otto Greenslade says :

“…as we move towards becoming more of a ‘household’ platform and with the great changes coming with Unity (launcher/dash) general users will get reassurance from the familiarity of the wallpaper and will also identify with it as part of our personality in new screenshots.”

For those unable to notice a different between this and the incumbent, here’s an animated .gif alternating between the two:

This design, along with 17 other wallpapers , make up the default wallpaper package for Ubuntu 11.04.

Phew! Nautilus-Elementary revived in time for Ubuntu Natty

noreply@blogger.com (n0wn) — Tue, 22 Mar 2011 17:21:00 +0700

Elementary’s Nautilus-fork ‘Nautilus-elementary’ has been revived – just in-time for Natty!

The project, which was announced as no longer being in development last November, has proven incredibly popular with users of various distributions thanks to to its refined, uncluttered interface and themeable features.

Writing on his blog Nautilus-Elementary’s chief developer, ammonkey, gave his reasons for the revival:

“Like many other distributions, Ubuntu Natty won’t support gtk3 and the gnome3 stack without adding external/testing repositories. Since gtk3 dropped the rc format, only one gtk engine is ready for gtk3 (clearlook) and one gtk theme (adwaita). Without proper theming there’s no point rushing to gtk3/gnome3 so gtk2/gnome2 still has some nice months ahead before a progressive transition.

Considering the context and to provide the best experience for Jupiter, i decided to re-activate the nautilus-elementary project. A special up-to-date version of nautilus-elementary will be released soon. The 2.32.0 version [brought] many bugs which have been hunted down for this special release.”

Ammonkey goes on to state that “..only critical bugs in nautilus-elementary would be fixed for the moment”. As such users shouldn’t expect any new features.

An updated bug-fixed package for Maverick users along with a new version for Natty testers can be installed from the Nautilus-Elementary PPA @

ppa:am-monkeyd/nautilus-elementary-ppa

To add and install via the Terminal enter:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:am-monkeyd/nautilus-elementary-ppa
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
