Upgrade Alsa (1.0.20), sound problem solution ubuntu jaunty

2009-06-14T09:34:33.393+07:00

Upgrade Alsa (1.0.20), sound problem solution ubuntu jaunty 9.04

To do this, we must begin by determining our version of alsa as follows :

cat /proc/asound/version
Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.18rc3.
We must then install the necessary tools to compile along with the kernel headers :

sudo apt-get -y install build-essential ncurses-dev gettext xmlto
sudo apt-get -y install linux-headers-`uname -r`

Then, we go in our personal folder and download alsa-driver, alsa-lib and alsa-utils :

cd ~
wget ftp://ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/driver/alsa-driver-1.0.20.tar.bz2
wget ftp://ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/lib/alsa-lib-1.0.20.tar.bz2
wget ftp://ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/utils/alsa-utils-1.0.20.tar.bz2

After that, we create a new folder for the compilation and installation of the 3 files. Then, we move the 3 tar files that we just downloaded in this folder :

sudo mkdir -p /usr/src/alsa
cd /usr/src/alsa
sudo cp ~/alsa* .

Unpack the 3 tar files :

sudo tar xjf alsa-driver*
sudo tar xjf alsa-lib*
sudo tar xjf alsa-utils*

We compile and install alsa-driver :

cd alsa-driver*
sudo ./configure --with-cards=hda-intel --with-kernel=/usr/src/linux-headers-$(uname -r)
sudo make
sudo make install

We compile and install alsa-lib :

cd ../alsa-lib*
sudo ./configure
sudo make
sudo make install

We compile and install alsa-utils :

cd ../alsa-utils*
sudo ./configure
sudo make
sudo make install

Then, we remove the 3 tar files in our personal folder that are not anymore necessary :

rm -f ~/alsa-driver*
rm -f ~/alsa-lib*
rm -f ~/alsa-utils*

the quad core 2 intel

2009-05-30T10:07:04.282+07:00

This week, a lot of internet maniac try to find out about "quad core processor", maybe this is one of the most processor that needed by the technology user..talking about quad core processor,actually, what is quad core??

The Core 2 brand refers to a range of Intel's consumer 64-bit x86-64 single-, dual-, and quad-core CPUs based on the Intel Core microarchitecture. The single- and dual-core models are single-die, whereas the quad-core models comprise of two dies, each containing two cores, packaged in a multi-chip module.The introduction of Core 2 relegated the Pentium brand to the mid-range market, and reunified laptop and desktop CPU lines, which previously had been divided into the Pentium 4, Pentium D, and Pentium M brands.

The Core microarchitecture returned to lower clock rate and improved processors' usage of both available clock cycles and power compared with preceding NetBurst of the Pentium 4/D-branded CPUs. Core microarchitecture provides more efficient decoding stages, execution units, caches, and buses, reducing the power consumption of Core 2-branded CPUs, while increasing their processing capacity. Intel's CPUs have varied very wildly in power consumption according to clock rate, architecture and semiconductor process, shown in the CPU power dissipation tables.

The Core 2 brand was introduced on July 27, 2006, comprising the Solo (single-core), Duo (dual-core), Quad (quad-core), and in 2007, the Extreme (dual- or quad-core CPUs for enthusiasts) version.Intel Core 2 processors with vPro technology (designed for businesses) include the dual-core and quad-core branches.(wikipedia)

news: Oracle Buys Sun

2009-04-23T21:43:31.322+07:00

Oracle Corporation (NASDAQ: ORCL) and Sun Microsystems (NASDAQ: JAVA) announced today they have entered into a definitive agreement under which Oracle will acquire Sun Microsystems common stock for $9.50 per share in cash. Sun Microsystems The transaction is valued at approximately $7.4 billion, or $5.6 billion net of Sun’s cash and debt. “We expect this acquisition to be accretive to Oracle’s earnings by at least 15 cents on a non-GAAP basis in the first full year after closing. We estimate that the acquired business will contribute over $1.5 billion to Oracle’s non-GAAP operating profit in the first year, increasing to over $2 billion in the second year. This would make the Sun acquisition more profitable in per share contribution in the first year than we had planned for the acquisitions of BEA, PeopleSoft and Siebel combined,” said Oracle President Safra Catz.“The acquisition of Sun transforms the IT industry, combining best-in-class enterprise software and mission-critical computing systems,” said Oracle CEO Larry Ellison. “Oracle will be the only company that can engineer an integrated system – applications to disk – where all the pieces fit and work together so customers do not have to do it themselves. Our customers benefit as their systems integration costs go down while system performance, reliability and security go up.”There are substantial long-term strategic customer advantages to Oracle owning two key Sun software assets: Java and Solaris. Java is one of the computer industry’s best-known brands and most widely deployed technologies, and it is the most important software Oracle has ever acquired. Oracle Fusion Middleware, Oracle’s fastest growing business, is built on top of Sun’s Java language and software. Oracle can now ensure continued innovation and investment in Java technology for the benefit of customers and the Java community.The Sun Solaris operating system is the leading platform for the Oracle database, Oracle’s largest business, and has been for a long time. With the acquisition of Sun, Oracle can optimize the Oracle database for some of the unique, high-end features of Solaris. Oracle is as committed as ever to Linux and other open platforms and will continue to support and enhance our strong industry partnerships.“Oracle and Sun have been industry pioneers and close partners for more than 20 years,” said Sun Chairman Scott McNealy. “This combination is a natural evolution of our relationship and will be an industry-defining event.”“This is a fantastic day for Sun’s customers, developers, partners and employees across the globe, joining forces with the global leader in enterprise software to drive innovation and value across every aspect of the technology marketplace,” said Jonathan Schwartz, Sun’s CEO, “From the Java platform touching nearly every business system on earth, powering billions of consumers on mobile handsets and consumer electronics, to the convergence of storage, networking and computing driven by the Solaris operating system and Sun’s SPARC and x64 systems. Together with Oracle, we’ll drive the innovation pipeline to create compelling value to our customer base and the marketplace.”“Sun is a pioneer in enterprise computing, and this combination recognizes the innovation and customer success the company has achieved. Our largest customers have been asking us to step up to a broader role to reduce complexity, risk and cost by delivering a highly optimized stack based on standards,” said Oracle President Charles Phillips. “This transaction will preserve and enhance investments made by our customers, while we continue to work with our partners to provide customers with choice.”The Board of Directors of Sun Microsystems has unanimously approved the transaction. It is anticipated to close this summer, subject to Sun stockholder approval, certain regulatory approvals and customary closin[...]

T-Mobile actually knows how to throw a great party, for Twitter followers you guys already got the firsthand scoop that attended the private launch party for the Sidekick LX 2009 at the Sidekick Social Club on Tuesday night. The party was a packed house, great food (they always have cool ideas, this time its make your own nachos and a hot dog stand), music was poppin’,open bar, arcade games area and a gifting spot for VIPS. When I walked in Jordana took me around and handed me the new orchid color Sidekick LX to experience it firsthand, I have to be honest at first I wasn’t too used to it since I’ve been off the Sidekick for a few years- I’m a BlackBerry girl now. But being tech savvy (haha) I got the hang of it in a few minutes, the first thing I was attracted to was the amazing orchid color and the 3.2-inch F-WVGA screen with high-definition LCD technology with 854×480 resolution its crisp clear and not to mention the full on QWERTY keyboard, makes typing so much easier! All my memories of the Sidekick came back in a few clicks, it was like the good old days but with an upgraded device. The new device is sleek and slim, not bulky like it used to be, the high-speed web browsing with 3G support is fast so it’s great for live blogging. The built-in support for the top social networking applications including Facebook, MySpace, Twitter was handy and easy to use, I was Twittering all night if you haven’t noticed ha! That night was definitely a fashion meets tech party, fun times. Big thanks to T-Mobile, Jackson and Jordana!

Tips:Customize the Gnome desktop panel Ubuntu

2009-03-12T22:34:00.846+07:00

The default Ubuntu desktop is configured with two "panels", one each at the top and bottom of the desktop. These ubuntu panels contain various "applets" such as the system menu, the clock, the logout button, or the list of open applications (what Windows calls the taskbar). Fortunately, unlike Windows, the desktop's panels can be fully customized. This tip describes some of the common operations you might perform to customize the appearance and functionality of your desktop panels.
Add a new "applet": New features can be added to your panel by right clicking on an empty area of the panel, and choosing "Add to Panel" in the resulting popup menu. A new utility window will appear, allowing you to select from all the features available. Note, the same "applet" can be added multiple times if needed.
Removing applets: All panel applets can be removed by right clicking on them, and choosing "Remove from Panel". You can remove everything so that you only have empty panels left.
Rearrange applets: All applets can also be placed wherever the user pleases, a feature not found on either Windows or Mac OS X. To "move" an applet, first check that it is not "locked" to it's position. This can be done by right clicking on the applet and ensuring that the "Lock to Panel" checkbox is unchecked.

There are two ways to actually position an unlocked applet. The first is to use the same right-click menu and choose "Move". The mouse cursor will change to indicate that you are now to move your mouse to the desired position for the applet. Move your mouse to where you want the applet located, and then click the left mouse button to place it. The second way to perform the move is to drag and drop with with the middle mouse button (on many modern mice, this means pressing the scroll wheel in, down towards the surface).

Note that applets can be moved from one panel to another. Just move your mouse to the other panel during the move operation.
Create or destroy entire panels: Entire panels can be removed altogether. Just right click on an empty part of the panel and choose "Delete this panel". Likewise, from the same menu, a new panel can be created by choosing the "New Panel" option in the same menu.
Moving a panel: An entire panel itself can be moved to different corners of the screen (or on to a different screen if you have a multiple screen configuration). Just use the left mouse button to drag and drop a panel to a new position (start the drag in an empty part of the panel).
Advanced options: Each panel can has more advanced settings which can be accessed by right clicking on an empty space in the panel, and choosing "Properties".

Create Ubuntu 8.10 Live USB

2009-03-10T22:30:00.306+07:00

To create a Ubuntu Live USB is not very easy that before 8.10. To response to the huge requests of Ubuntu Live USB, the developers write a program in Python to create a Ubuntu Live USB for all levels of users in Ubuntu 8.10.

Procedure

(A) With Ubuntu 8.10 Live CD
(1) Download the Ubuntu 8.10 Live CD from http://www.ubuntu.com. Make sure you download the Desktop version instead of Server version.
(2) Burn the image file (.iso) with your CD/DVD burner in the method of burning as image.
(3) Boot up the Live CD.
(4) Insert your brand new USB thumb drive.
(5) Choose "System" >> "Administration" >> "Create a USB startup disk".
(6) Format the USB thumb drive if there is a "Format" button on the screen. (The finished product does not work on a FAT32 formatted media; however, it works great on FAT16.)
(7) Push the adjustable bar to the maximum in order to allow you to save files or something on the Ubuntu Live USB.
(8) Click the "Make startup disk" button to create the Live USB. It takes time to complete and depends on the size of your USB thumb drive. (For official Ubuntu CD, you are required at least 1GB size.)

(B) From a working copy of Ubuntu 8.10 on hard drive
(1) Boot up your computer that running Ubuntu 8.10.
(1a) Download the Ubuntu 8.10 Desktop .iso or put the Ubuntu 8.10 Live CD to the CD-ROM.
(2) Insert your brand new USB thumb drive.
(3) Choose "System" >> "Administration" >> "Create a USB startup disk".
(4) Format the USB thumb drive if there is a "Format" button on the screen. (The finished product does not work on a FAT32 formatted media; however, it works great on FAT16.)
(5) Push the adjustable bar to the maximum in order to allow you to save files or something on the Ubuntu Live USB.
(6) Click the "Make startup disk" button to create the Live USB. It takes time to complete and depends on the size of your USB thumb drive. (For official Ubuntu CD, you are required at least 1GB size.)

Tips

(1) Use a 1GB or larger USB thumb drive. You are advised to use a faster speed USB thumb drive.
(2) Use Ubuntu 8.10 Desktop version (Live CD or working copy).
(3) Make sure the USB thumb is in FAT16 format or format it as is at the program that prompt you (there will be a "Format" button).
(4) Go to the BIOS to change the boot priority. Makes the USB media boot first. Or, you may need to change the boot priority on every boot up with Ubuntu Live USB. Some BIOS provides boot menu for the selection.
(5) Or, you may consider Lambda 8.10 Live DVD at http://www.samiux.com as you are not required to install any common program and plugin, such as Flash, Java runtime and multimedia codecs. In addition, it is in Traditional Chinese by default. You can use any Chinese Input Method on it. For Lambda Linux, you are required a 2GB or larger USB thumb drive.
(6) If you are using a larger USB thumb drive and reversed extra space, you can save files and install programs on the USB thumb drive.

Toshiba Laptop-Quad-Core Processor

2009-05-25T09:24:57.522+07:00

The "Quad-Core HD Processor" quad laptop used in the Qosmio G55 laptop is based on the SpursEngine which is derived from the Cell Broadband Engine, a multicore chip architecture jointly developed by IBM, Toshiba & Sony. The Cell architecture, in turn, is derived from IBM's Power Architecture. Now, IBM uses the Cell processor in a line of blade servers.

The four processing elements inside the chip have 1.5GHz of clock frequency, while boasting a relatively low power envelope of 10 - 20 watts. Typical mobile Intel processors have a power envelope of 35 watts.

The SpursEngine can deliver up to 48 GFlops (billion Floating point operations per second) or 12GFlops per processing element. Every element has 256KB of integrated memory, according to Toshiba. And the processor excels at high-definition video encoding and decoding of H.264 (MPEG-4) and MPEG-2 streams.

As discussed in an earlier CNET Crave post, Toshiba is touting the Cell processor's special features. The Japanese company says that the processor achieves what many high-end graphics processing units (GPUs) from the likes of Nvidia and AMD now feature: transcoding acceleration. Transcoding, or converting--movies, for example--from one format to another, can be extremely time consuming, sometimes taking hours.

A typical 1GB movie can be converted--or transcoded--in less time with the help of the SpursEngine processor: what might ordinarily take an hour can be done in as little as ten minutes, the company said in a statement. This is a feature that Nvidia is also promoting aggressively on its newest GTX 280 graphics processor announced Monday. In short, offloading multimedia-intensive tasks to a specialized processor (like an Nvidia GPU or Toshiba SpursEngine) can speed up many common tasks dramatically.

Toshiba is touting other uses too. The processor allows the user to pause, fast-forward, and rewind a movie "just by moving your hands." Toshiba calls it "gesture control."

And this is what Toshiba says about a "Face Navigation" feature. "Find that face--or that unforgettable scene in home movies and Hollywood films...The new Toshiba Face Navigation feature captures facial expressions so you can quickly locate the part of the video you want to see."

5 Tips For Buying Laptop

2009-01-11T14:41:32.184+07:00

The tips to finding the laptop is consider exactly how you plan to use your laptop. When you you go shopping you have to define what you need before , buying the right machine becomes much easier. Here are 5 basic Tips to consider:1. SIZEIn the world of mobile computing, size definitely matters. The size of a laptop affects two key areas: portability and display size. If you're always on the go and will be using your computer only in short bursts, a so-called ultralight will save you some shoulder strain. On the other hand, if you're going to spend hours in front of your laptop, a larger display may be in order. Today, some laptop displays exceed 17 inches, rivaling the display size of many desktop systems. The down side is that these monsters can easily weigh three times as much as an ultralight.2. HARD DRIVESpeaking of size, what about the size of the hard drive? One way to approach this issue is to ask yourself the following question:Will this be my primary computer, or will it supplement my desktop system?If the former, you should look for a bigger hard drive - 60 GB or more. If the latter, you may be able to make it with a 20-30 GB hard drive. But even this isn't absolute. If, for example, you plan to copy a huge MP3 library from your desktop system to your laptop to make your music library portable, you'd be well advised to err on the side of too big.3. MEMORYIn determining the right amount of system memory, or RAM, take a look at the ways in which you intend to use your laptop:If your needs are somewhat mundane - email, spreadsheets, word processing, etc. - 256 MB of RAM should be plenty. This is a common configuration for many laptops, so it means you probably won't need to spend extra for more RAM. On the flip side, if you're an aspiring mobile digital photographer or videographer, you should stuff your laptop with as much RAM as it can hold. In fact, exactly how much RAM your laptop can hold may in part drive your purchase decision. Applications for editing and manipulating multimedia content are notorious resource hogs.4. NETWORK CONNECTIONSThanks in no small part to the Internet, computing in the 21st century relies heavily on being connected:Connected to the Internet, connected to a corporate network, connected to a wireless network, connected to a home network, connected to an online service. Your life will be easier if you buy a laptop that includes built-in means to connect to them all.5. PRICEIf you're considering a laptop, you're probably wondering how much money you'll need to spend. A few years ago, you'd be hard-pressed to find one for under $2,000. Today, there are plenty of laptops to be had for under $1,000. What's more, most of the major manufacturers offer a variety of financing options. Laptop prices have come down, to be sure. However, a laptop still represents a fairly major purchase for most people. If you take the time to search for a laptop that meets your specific needs, you should get many years of use and enjoyment from this important investment.[...]

The benefits of Mac OS

2009-01-11T14:42:42.873+07:00

There are thousands of differences between mac and windows operating systems. To try and explain everything would take me all day and a books worth of typing. I can however explain the primary differences. First Windows is based upon a DOS programming language (think of it as the foundation for the operating system); Mac is based upon unix programming language, (linux is also based upon unix as well.) Macintosh is often more secure than windows due to less attempts at hacking because the majority of computer users use Windows. Macs tend to focus on graphics and multimedia while Windows focuses on office function.Benefits of Mac:No viruses, or any other malware for that fact. (This is due to Mac OS X's UNIX underpinnings, not "lack of users" or "low market share.")Seamless integration. Your hardware will work perfectly with your software, because both are designed by Apple.You will enjoy many advanced features that are not available in Windows, even Vista. Features like Exposé, Spotlight Search, a built-in dictionary that can be invoked in any application with a simple keystroke, easy to build scripting using Automator, zero-configuration networking, system wide spell checking and many more.Macs can dual-boot with Windows or run Windows within Mac OS X itself. With BootCamp, you can dual-boot with Windows and run any PC application, even high-end games.Excellent support and customer service. Apple is well known for it's support. I had a wonderful experience with Apple when the logic board in my Mac mini went bad. (This was due to a power issue in my home, not the Mac.)Great software. Most of the software made for the Mac is better than similar software for Windows. Crap doesn't survive on the Mac market. iLife is absolutely amazing. Mac OS X is compatible with many file formats, right out of the box. As I mentioned before, you can run Windows applications. With a Mac, you can have it both ways.Beautiful hardware. Quality hardware. Apple puts the sex in tech. Apple hardware is always beautiful, as well as functional. Apple has extremely talented engineers. One look at an iMac will tell you that much. The hardware is of excellent quality and built to last. Macs are well known to have a longer life span than PCs.Upgrades? Who needs them. A seven year old iMac can still run the latest release of Mac OS X. Sure, you can add more RAM or get a bigger hard drive, but your Mac will run beautifully for years to come. When a new version of Mac OS X is released, you won't need to scramble to purchase upgrades in order to run it. (Leave that to the Vista adopters.)Crashing. It doesn't happen. I'm not saying Mac OS X is absolutely perfect, but it's damn close. Most problems are easily fixed within minutes. Macs don't require the constant maintenance needed by PCs.Value. When all of these things add up, you'll actually be saving money, as well as time, in the long run. You'll find yourself actually doing more on a Mac. Things you never thought of doing on a PC.[...]

if we talking about Mac, linux and windows as Operating system, we will be confused...all of them nice in appearance and very usefull for us..
but generally, if we talking about Interface (GUI), the Macinthosh is most beautifull than Windows and Linux. However, the MacOSX ( Operating System for the Macintosh) for computer based on Intel inside, actually included Linux inside MacOSX, So, in other words, Linux can made better than windows.
for the comparison, below is one of Mac interface, you can see that Mac is very beautifull layouts and interface guys...

from apple.com, they said that Mac OS X v10.5 "Leopard" is the most technologically advanced operating system Apple has ever released, but don't let that scare you. While there's a lot of powerful stuff going on under the hood, Leopard makes it easy for you to work, play, and get entertainment on your Mac.

If you find a big question mark popping up over your head the moment your Mac starts up, this is a good place to start. These interface initiation lessons will introduce you to the different pieces that make up the Leopard interface, tell you how to get around it, and show you how to use the Finder and Finder windows, the Desktop, the menu bar, the Dock, the Trash, files and folders, and more.
