New Year...2005

I want to wish a Happy New Year 2005. My condolence to all the tsunami's victims.

Ubuntu...

Ubuntu...it's an ancient african word which means humanity towards others". It another linux variant. Ubuntu is similar to Knoppix which can run "live" from your cd-rom. Unfortunately, it's a bit dispointing because the player included in Ubuntu can't play the mp3s from my hard disk. I can't setup the network connection to the Internet. The desktop looks clean and simple . It have task bars located at the top and the bottom of the screen.

"You are legally entitled and encouraged to copy, share, and redistribute this CD, for yourself and your friends. Share the spirit of Ubuntu!" taken from the cd cover.

Mubarak...

I think it's not too late to wish Happy Eid Mubarak although it's already 22th Syawal. Classmate got married yesterday. I went to see The Incredibles for second time. I had pizza for lunch. yummy.

sudo knoppix-installer....

I succeded in installing knoppix on my unused seagate 4Gbytes hard disk. I referred to this online oo to install. Knoppix runs like normal windows. I even installed yahoo messager linux(debian) on knoppix. I don't know the different between debian, red hat linux and bsd. I read in the knoppix.net forum that multiple chat client called GAIM is already in the Knoppix. I tried to log in using the yahoo protocol but failed.

Knoppix...

In the last post, I mentioned about Knoppix. Knoppix is actually operating system that can boot from cd and you can start using it right away. Just like in the dinosour time where MS-Dos is popular. Back then, you have to put in the 5.25 inches thin disc in to drive and boot the MS-Dos. Once the MS-Dos is loaded into memory, you slide in any application program. Everything was in command prompt. Hey, that was 15 years ago. Now, we have cd-rom drive that can read data at 52X, one X is equal to 150kbytes persecond. Computers now are fast and able to launch application quickly. Once knoppix finished loading, you will be greeted by familiar interface like windows. Everything just point and click. This software is FREE!.


You can use OpenOffice which is similar to Microsoft Office but it is free. No need to pay any license. It is compatible with microsof Office Files. In other words, you can open your word document or presentation files and edit in the OpenOffice.There a lot of goodies included in the CD. One example is Mysql for creating your relational database.

Anyway, I managed to connect to internet using my dsl modem. The configuration setting is not that hard. I think it is easier in Windows. First attempt, I used Knoppix 3.6 but failed to log on the internet. I went to Knoppix forum to post my problem. I succeded in my second attempt after using Knoppix 3.4. First, you set the network card configuration. The wizard will ask you for your IP (i.e. the ip for your ethernet card) and your ISP DNS. Then, you set the PPPOE configuration wizard so that you can dial to the server. After these two steps, you are on the internet superhighway. You to set this settings every time you boot with the cd. To avoid doing this, you have to install knoppix on your hard disk.

Go and download your at knoppix.org.

Matlab...

Normalization of the database was today's lecture. The tutorial on ER diagram takes me some time to derive it from the business rule. The next step, was to create the entities in ER diagram using SQL commands. Have to make sure the entities(tables) are link properly using primary key and foreign. Constraints have to be set according to the requirement.

There will be a Matlab programming contest starting on Wednesday, 3rd October till 10th November. Rules of the contest can be found at Matlab Website. Lots of Prizes will be giving away such as T-shirts and stuff. What you waiting for? Come and join now.

Web Surfing...

After Terawih, I sit at my Pc and starts playing Unreal Tournament 2004 online. I went to this server which can accommodate 24 players in one go. As we playing in the small map, everybody was berserk and shooting aimlessly. Well, it was fun because you just go in and shoot till you got somebody.

Today, I found other interesting blog. The blog was written by Mr Adib who has passion in reading and writing. I stumbled upon his blog while surfing idlanzakaria's blog. I like what he wrote about the Ramadhan. He wrote,

"As the age goes up in numbers, our physical stregth goes downwards. A few of my friends( inculding me) regret that we could have done more if we were younger. But when we were younger, we got carried away from doing more ibadah by other worldly attractions and pleasures."

That is true Mr Adib, even myself I managed to do 8 rakaat for the terawih prayer. Suppose, I should try to do 21 rakaat tommorow.

I'm also a regular to Screenshots. What I like about his website. I can grab some information about the current issues ranging from politics, economics and technology. The fact are summarized and referenced.

As I write this blog. I found myself still have no idea to write. May be, I should read more.

Kinokuniya...

Oh no! I was late for class. Usually, I will about two hours to drive up to class. I managed to drive 45 minutes less. It rained along the journey in Seremban and Elite Highway.I managed to arrive to class on time. The lecture was interesting and I understand mostly understand what the lecturer taught. I used to take this subject when I was in the undergraduate. All the terms are still fresh in my head. Hope to excel in this paper.

Dr I C dismissed the class at around 6.40pm. I have meeting with my friend of mine in KL. She was kind and helpful enough to buy the textbook. We had roti nan and chicken tandoori . My classmate squeaked and screamed when she saw rat running under table. It is a brown rat and it is big. I wonder why the worker in the restaureant never notice them. At home, I got a mouse running around. Mouse are smaller in size. May be it just a rat but smaller version. Have to find this out. I managed to kill two of them. I'm not going to eat at that restaurant again. In the future, I will not bring anyone to mapley anymore. Better go to fast food restaurant which is more cleaner and cooler. During my years in matriculation centre, My best buddy and I used to walk all the way to the section 14 for the roti Nan using the short cut through the Star newpapers headquarter.

At 9 pm. I sent her back and head home for 100km journey. Make a pit stop at Shell to fill up the petrol.
