A few days ago I bought aha olive v-me110 modem, they said its easy to setting it up on ubuntu, especially when using 2.6.32 or above kernel, but infact... recommended how to setting the modem does not works, it does not work on jaunty or even lucid lynx.

So I try it to BlankOn Ombilin base on lucid lynx kernel, and its works... thanks for Mr. Ainul Hakim to shows me how !

It is easy, more easiest to use infact by using Ombilin 'coz its flip-flop usb-modeswitch ready!

Here a little tutorial how to connect and setting up your aha olive v-me110 modem using BlankOn Ombilin :

first, make your VPN configured :

Open your network manager >> Configure VPN >> Mobile >> Add new connection

Make sure you choose CDMA connection

when you get some error message about flashplugin-installer, uninstall it via synaptic :


Type on search bar : flashplugin-installer, than right click on it and choose complete removal, when finish removed, closed it and double click on flash player that you just download it from adobe.

2. To get 2 plugins needed, you should download google chrome, follow this link to my previous post about google chrome and you can download it through there.

Choose the best and appropriate installer for your desktop specification, and when finished... install it by double click on it.

4. After finished download, extract it, (right click on it and find "extract here"), and don't forget to rename it (I rename mine as firefox-3.6.3)

5. Now The easiest way to install new firefox is by copy and paste it to firefox directory, that would be at :


6. Open your terminal and type :

it require a passwords and will bring you a super windows that allow you to copy and paste. so, find your new extracting firefox, copying and pasted in : /usr/lib through that super windows.

7. Still on that super nautilus windows, go to file system :

and finds this 2 plugins : libffmpegsumo.so and libgcflashplayer.so
copy it

8. Pasted those 2 lib plugin at your new firefox plugin, put it at file system :

I was surprised to day when I saw my Ubuntu installed with Zuma's Revengegame, I wonder who's installing it? ^_^ I try to click on zuma's icon shortcut... wow... it s works! than I play it till my 8 years nephew came, she said that she is the one who install it, but she can't play it "'coz there was no icon shortcut" she said... haha... "of course there no sudden icon for it, 'coz I use Ubuntu 9.04 , you have to click on some kind of file icon at desktop and approve it that you trust it or not" I said... but I think she don't care... she s keep playing... ^_^



It is interesting for me, I never try installing .exe games on my Ubuntu, specially with some cracked games -_-, but here some screen shoot about how to install zuma's revenge on ubuntu :

1. double click on Zuma's exe file, if you don't have it now, you can get it at misterxwebz, find it the download link there and make sure you have wine installed already (sudo apt-get install wine)

2. You will get this welcome, next is the right button to continue... ^_^

3. Now this is the tricky one... you can agree or not is up to you (I'm not encourage it) well it was cracked anyway...

4. If you choose to agree... you will get this setup, fill it or it will filled by default

5. just Click next...

6. Choose what you got to choose... and next of course...

7. Well... next is the best choice I guess...

Remember, always use Freeware rather than some cracked ware, all the above how to's is just an example. Have fun than. ^_^

Wallpaper is an decoration for desktop, its make more beauty for appearance, but kind a boring to watch the same wallpaper over and over again.
On Ubuntu 9.10 (karmic Koala) by default you can find Cosmos as automatically wallpaper changer and it is beautiful, wallpapers will automatically change in every 30 minutes.
How ever, for previous Ubuntu such as 8.10 or 9.04 the wallpaper changer is not set by default, so you have to add and install it by your self.
I use wallpaper tray rather than wally or other thing, 'coz wallpaper tray is supported by community and its ready on synaptic or repository.

1. go to : System >> Administration >> Synaptic Package Manager

2. Type "wallpaper" on Quick search, than find "wallpaper-tray", click it at the box on left.

3. Mark it for installation.

After finishing installation, close synaptic package manager.

Wallpaper tray will not show at Applications, Place or System, so where is it? It shows as panel bar properties. (see update below at the bottom for previous versions of Ubuntu)

5. Right click at panel bar and choose Add to panel...

6. Find Wallpaper Tray, its alphabetical and click it to give an highlight.

Than click at Add button and close it.

7. Wallpaper Tray application will shows on panel bar (its shows an image of your wallpaper).

8. Right click on it and select Preferences.

9. Make any change at More Options to fit your need, or just following mine.

10. Now click at Directory List to add directory of your images (where your wallpapers are).
Make sure you have already set your wallpaper folder created, and click Add button.

11. After you have choose your directory wallpapers folder, click at Apply button.

Your wallpapers will change automatically now, close everything to make sure it is works, watch it change exactly as you wish for rotating interval.

To make wallpaper tray run at the first time every times you log on, just execute it on StartUp Applications.

12. Go to : System >> Preferences >> Startup applications

13. Choose Startup Programs and click at Add button.

14. Type : wallpaper tray at name and command, like the picture below and save it.

You will have very nice automatic wallpapers changer and its works very smooth.... Enjoy !
