Just to share with the other. Here you are.

1. Change your statict network interface. In this example is eth1.
# vim /etc/network/interfaces

auto eth1
iface eth1 inet static
address 192.168.0.254
netmask 255.255.255.0
broadcast 192.168.0.255

where eth1 is the network card and ip is your desired server ip address. I used 192.168.0.254 as IP Address.

2. Configure the NAT:

# iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o ppp0 -j MASQUERADE

where ppp0 is the network card that the Internet is coming from. Use ppp0 for dialup connection.

# echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

3. Install dnsmasq and ipmasq using apt-get:

# apt-get install dnsmasq ipmasq

4. Reconfigure ipmasq to start after networking has been started:

# dpkg-reconfigure ipmasq

5. Add the line “net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1″ to /etc/sysctl.conf

# vim /etc/sysctl.conf

6. Set your client DNS to 192.168.0.254

While in the SD card is a memorable photographs of the birth of their first son. To restore these photos I recommend to use the recovery tool. To find the recovery tool, I told him to look for in google.

There are some recovery tools that are used. All are Windows programs. However, none of which succeeded. This is because the tool is a trial version. Meanwhile, to get the full version required to buy it. Fortunately I have a Ubuntu Linux machine which Ubuntu Lucid Lynx LTS upgrade from Ubuntu LTS Hardy Heron, minimal installation with LXDE. And finally my friend’s problem could be solved with the help of my Ubuntu Linux machine.

Here are some things you need to do with simple commands. This tutorial is written for Ubuntu GNU/Linux, but should be similar for most Linux machines.

1. Make a copy of the image of your SD card.
sudo dd if=/dev/sdb of=SDCARD-backup.img bs=1M

2. Install recoverjpeg package via apt-get
sudo apt-get install recoverjpeg

3. Run the command below.
$ recoverjpeg SDCARD-backup.img
Restored 398 pictures

The pictures that have been recovered will be stored in a folder. Please see the recovery that have been made. Good luck … Go Opensource .

In this article I am going to show you how to do proper, full breadcrumbs in including nested categories and nested pages. Breadcrumbs are a pretty standard design pattern and can be very useful in a lot of website situations. For WordPress users typically use plugins. But for those who want to add facilities in bredacrumbs WordPress-based blog without using plugins, try my way below.

You can just include this function in your theme’s “functions.php” file.

function get_wp_breadcrumbs() {
	if (!is_home()) {
		echo ('You are here: '); 
		echo '<a href="';
		echo get_option('home');
		echo '">';
		echo 'Home';
		echo "</a> » ";
		if (is_category() || is_single()) {
			the_category(' &raquo; ',multiple);
			if (is_single()) {
				echo " » ";
				the_title();
			}
		} elseif (is_page()) {
			echo the_title();
		}
 
	}
	else { 
	echo ('You are here: '); 
	echo '<a href="';
	echo get_option('home');
	echo '">';
	echo 'Home';
	echo "</a> » ";
	}
}

And then add the following code in the “header.php” file.

108

<?php get_wp_breadcrumbs(); ?>

So there you have it. Fully customizable, valid breadcrumbs in WordPress. Please let me know what you think.

But after upgrading to Ubuntu Lucid Lynx, I noticed that it took an extra 15 – 20 seconds for it to finish logging me in after I entered my password. This was particularly noticeable to me because I use LXDE/Openbox as my window manager, and normally starts up in less than one second on my hardware.

If you’re experiencing this problem, there’s a very easy fix:

sudo mv /usr/bin/xsplash /usr/bin/xsplash_hidden

This just hides xsplash under a different name so that the login manager can’t find it and run it. I found that it did not cause any problem to have xsplash unavailable. However, the reason I’ve suggested renaming it rather than deleting it is so that if it does cause a problem, you can just rename it back.

For explanation, it turns out that xsplash has a 15-second delay hardcoded into it before the brown splash screen goes away. If you’re using Gnome, apparently Gnome has a mechanism to let xsplash know when it’s done loading, so the brown xsplash screen will go away in less than 15 seconds. But if you’re using a window manager other than Gnome that doesn’t support this mechanism, the brown screen will stay there for the full 15 seconds, while you wait for it.

Kalau dalam istilah Maduranya, “Forgiven Forgotten”. Topik yang beliau lempar adalah “Forgiveness will open the doorway of our own love? ” Artinya kita harus bersedia SELALU memaafkan, tidak membalas, tidak mendendam, tidak membenci! Bisa gak ya dilakukan ma kita?

Maka sayapun menanggapi dengan statement, kalau manusia lebih bersifat emosional. Dan disini berlaku hukum sebab akibat. Jangan lup, ingatan manusia berlaku dua arah. Dimana pada satu sisi lebih kuat arus kognitifnya dan disaat lain sifat emosional akan muncul. Dan celakanya, emosi dalam diri lebih kuat. Keadaan ini malah menimbulkan dendam kusumat. Yang diistilahkan oleh Prof. Dwi sebagai “Forgivness”. Coba kalau ingatan manusia hanya kuat disisi kognitifnya, maka dengan mudah kita akan “melupakan” kejadian2 yang lalu. Jadi buat yang tingkat emosinya tinggi, yakin deh tak akan pernah bisa memaafkan…. apalagi melupakan… Bukan masalah melupakan atau memaafkan, yang terpenting apa hikmah yang bisa diambil. Jangan seperti keledai bodoh yang terperosok pada lobang yang sama. Seperti nyanyian The Corrs dalam lagu Forgiven Not Frogotten.

A bleeding heart torn apart, left on an icy grave,
In the room where they once lay, face to face,
Nothing could get in their way, but now the memories of the man
Are haunting her days and the craving never fades,
Shes still dreaming of a man long forgiven, but not forgotten,

Youre forgiven not forgotten
Youre forgiven not forgotten
Youre forgiven not forgotten
Youre not forgotten

Still alone, staring on, wishing her life goodbye
As she goes searching for the man long forgiven, but not forgotten,

Forgiven But Not Forgotten

Hari ini saya merasakan benar-benar manfaatnya. Betapa tidak, salah satu Dosen saya, guru terbaik, menghubungi via Facebook. Ada rasa bangga memang. Betapa tidak, beliau yang selama ini ingin segera saya temui sepulang PTT ternyata lebih cepat menghubungi. Walaupun lewat media maya. Ya.. lewat jejaring sosial Facebook.

Beliau bukan sekedar dosen, yang seharusnya sekedar memberikan ilmu. Namun beliau juga mengajari saya “bagaimana seharusnya”.
- Bagaimana seharusnya jadi Dokter.
- Bagaimana seharusnya jadi manusia.
- Bagaimana seharusnya disiplin.
- Bagaimana seharusnya bertanggung jawab.
- Bagaimana seharusnya………

Hari ini beliau menyapa saya di kotak pesan Facebook. Dengan sapaan sederhana. Tapi cukup membuat saya untuk tertegun sesaat. Ternyata Facebook telah mempertemukan saya dengan Dosen sekaligus Guru kehidupan bagi saya.

Nb. Semasa kuliah, beliau dosen yang paling saya takuti.. hehehheheheh…

Apalagi berharap ada salinan resep disini. Bukan.. bukan itu yang ingin saya tulisakan disini. Kali ini bercerita tentang Theme WordPress yang saya beri nama Nastar (Kue Nastar). Nah kali ini istriku bikin buat camilan sehari-hari. Sebagai pengisi waktu luang sambil nunggu kue mateng, iseng-iseng bukan laptop. Buka editor vim di Ubuntu Linux. Sim salabim.. jadilah theme ini.

Nastar WordPress Themes hanya terdiri dari 2 file yaitu index.php dan style.css. Ditambah 1 file screenshoot.png jadi tiga. Besarnya hanya 62kb. Cocok untuk yang mau otak-atik dan belajar theme WordPress biar sesuai dengan keinginan.

Kedepannya saya pingin ngoprek theme ini ke seni standart web. Ini juga atas saran dari mas Dani. Mungkin Kriteria Universal Design Web dari Accessites.org bisa sebagai acuan. Kita tunggu… toh sama-sama belajar.

Semata-mata karena “desakan” istri untuk mencicipi layanan jejaring sosial ini. Dari awal sejak kemunculan friendster, tidak ada niatan dan ketertarikan untuk ikut-ikutan latah menggunakan layanan ini. Pun untuk kasus Facebook.

Untuk sementara saya keliling dulu di layanan facebook ini setelah beberapa waktu lalu sempat register. Saya bolak-balik fitur-fiturnya. Ternyata banyak apps yang ditawarkan. Bagaimana dengan layanan Blog wordpress? Adakah aplikasi yang sudah dibuat? Ternyata ada. Sedikit coba-coba pake WordBook plugins dari WordPress. Tapi sampai tulisan ini dibuat, kok postingan di blog saya ngga’ muncul juga di halaman depan facebook.

Updated: Postingan dah muncul kok.
