Great desktop with gnome-shell
Oooh, shiny
It’s still in active development, needs improvement here & there, but I think it’s already good enough for everyday use 
ipconfig on Linux?
Yesterday, I happened to notice something really weird on my Ombilin machine. Each time I logged in, there’s this “ipconfig” process that consumes one of CPU cores usage up to 99%.
IIRC, ipconfig is a Windows program. So what’s it doing on a Linux box?
Cairo-dock is THE dock!
It doesn’t need Compiz, got minimal resource usage, no-OpenGL mode, and has several nifty widgets. It’s essentially giving you flashy stuff without sacrificing performance.
What else you could ask?
Testing gnome-blog
Lekhonee from repo can’t be installed on Lucid, and I’m feeling lazy to build it from source. So I’m trying gnome-blog. The interface even more simple than Lekhonee (and I thought Lekhonee is dull)
A witty advice
My netbook webcam doesn’t work properly on BlankOn Nanggar. It can capture images, but it will be displayed upside down. After several hours googling, I finally get some sure workaround to solve this problem.
*Try holding your computer upside-down*. Dead simple, no?
Even though I already used the libv4l library, the webcam still displaying images upside-down. Maybe the webcam still haven’t been included on libv4l table on Nanggar release.
Well, it’s not like I badly need to use the webcam. But I do hope it’ll be fixed on the next BlankOn release. Maybe it’s already fixed on Ubuntu 10.04.
