Changing Ubuntu 11.04 to Sabily 11.04 Al-Badr

Assalamualaikum,

This is the continous post from before. Before, i've told about the new release version of Ubuntu which is Ubuntu 11.04, Natty Narwhal. So, in this post, i want to explain on how to convert your Natty Narwhal into the new version of Sabily; Al-Badr.

It's Sabily Al-Badr...it's finally here.

So, to change it....run these command via terminal. Just press Alt+F2 to open the dash and search for terminal if there's no shortcut in launcher.
(Just copy & paste this command into your terminal)

1. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:sabily.team/ppa && sudo apt-get -q update

2. sudo apt-get install sabily

3. press "y" and enter

4. Wait about 10 to 20 minutes to finish.

5. Restart to complete converted.

6. Let the magic begins....

There is it, your Natty Narwhal has been transformed into Sabily Al-Badr, with original Al-Badr wallpaper and others Islamic softwaare. Plus, the Unity UI is still maintain in it, as you can see the Unity Launcher on the left side panel.

I thinks that's all for now....for any assistant, do visit here or here.

Hope this help. Thanks for reading. =)

Ubuntu 11.04 Final Released!

Assalamualaikum & gd evening,

It's been a long time since the last time i posted something about linux. So, in this post, i just want to inform the linux user out there or a linux wanna-be or computer/techno geeks or maybe a schoolnerd out there about the new release in one of linux distro, Ubuntu.

Before, it is Ubuntu 10.10; Maverick Meerkat but now, ubuntu developer team has released a new version of Ubuntu.

It is called.....

Ubuntu 11.04; Natty Narwhal

So, for ubuntu useer out there, what are you waiting for.....let's upgrade to Natty Narwhal. It seems like they developed new interface in this version. Plus, they have introduced a new UI in this latest version of Ubuntu. In the recent version (which is Ubuntu 10.10), we used (mostly) Gnome 3 as a linux UI-(stands for User Interface) but this time, in Natty Narwhal, they introduced Unity as the default UI. Although it seems like there is some controversial regarding this matter, in my opinion, this is a new step taken by Ubuntu developer to attract a new user who loves a brand new and unique interface. Thus, linux will be global OS-user and can compete with Michaelsoft. Ops...i mean Microsoft.

Sorry, can't describe in detail...that's just what i know from the surface. Right now, i'm upgrading my Ubuntu 10.10 to 11.04, then will i know what Natty Narwhal offer their user.

For those who do not know how to upgrade, here's a little tips :

For Ubuntu 10.10 user:

Click "System", "Administration" and scroll to the bottom and click "Update Manager". After searching for updates, it will show about a new release of Ubuntu and a button "Upgrade" just beside it. Just click it....(it will take some time though)

For other user :

Maybe you should just install a new copy of Natty Narwhal .iso then install it by yourself. For further information, you can search the web or ask any Ubuntu customer service, any ubuntu forum or can even ask me. I would try to help as i could.

Here's the download link : Ubuntu download center

I'm in the process of upgrading...

Well, it's all for now....until next post. Thanks for reading.

Salam~

Semuanya Bermula dengan Guru...

Guess what? It's 16th May.....what is it?

Assalamualaikum & gd evening to all my reader,

Since it is 16th May which is an annual event of celebrating Teacher's day, i'll loves to take this opportunity to wish a Happy Teacher's Day to all my beloved teachers since i'm in kindergarten until now, in JAD programme. So, in this post, i would like to post a poem regarding the deeds of our teacher......it's entitled "Dariku untukmu Guru;"

Johan yang berliku telah kau luruskan,
Kabur penglihatan telah kau terangkan,
Kusut fikir telah kau leraikan,
Buntu kalbu telah kau ceriakan,
Malah, engkau adalah segalanya,
Punca segala kejayaan.

Guruku,
Dalam duka kau lemparkan senyuman,
Dalam resah kau himpunkan tawa riang,
Dalam sakit kau kentalkan semangat,
Dalam rindu kau sematkan kasih-sayang,
Pada anak-anak didik yang dahagakan ilmu.

Guruku,
Keranamu aku berada di puncak ini,
Keranamu aku menjadi insan bestari,
Keranamu aku bisa membaca dan mengira,
Keranamu aku menjadi insan mulia,
Kerana itu,
Aku akan terus mengingat dan mengenangmu,
Wahai guruku.

Guruku,
Engkaulah mawar,
Engkaulah penawar,
Engkaulah pelita,
Engkaulah pendeta,
Engkaulah jua,
ibu dan ayahku tika di sekolah.

Kerana tanpamu guru,
Siapalah aku....

I want to express my gratitude to those who had taught me until now, to those who i called teachers. Thank you for all your kindness, your knowledge and your concern, i'll not forget them.

As a second point, i want to apologize for the late wish....although tonight is the night of 17th of May, but this wish is sincerely from deep of my heart, specially to you, teachers....

This specially goes to my SDAR teachers....
look teacher, i still remember the 'profil pelajar SDAR' =)

Before ending this post, i would like to show a poem written by Usman Awang, a well-known Malaysian poet.

Jika hari ini seorang Raja menaiki takhta,
Jika hari ini seorang Presiden sebuah negara,
Jika hari ini seorang Ulama' yang mulia,
Jika hari ini seorang peguam menang bicara,
Jika hari ini seorang penulis terkemuka,
Jika hari ini siapa saja menjadi dewasa,
Sejarahnya dimulakan oleh seorang Guru biasa,
Dengan lembut sabarnya mengajar tulis-baca.

(Usman Awang-1979)

A moment in Universal Studio

Sourvenir that i bought....
occasionally with FIFA Rugby World Cup this year, haha

Assalamualaikum & good evening,

Sorry for being quite, busy with all those reports & quiz plus my wimax connection is having a problem (really slow speed). Quite a long time i didn't update my blog. So, here it goes....

like a vacation diary- this time is about the journey to Universal Studio. Pls don't think too far, just a country by the neighbourhood. Actually, it was during the labour day, early of May. We went there by public transport mostly, my mom doesn't know Singapore's road. Let me brief a little bit, first, we took bus from JB Sentral to Kranji, Singapore. There, we took MRT until the last station on North East Line which is Harbour Front. Then, we took a monorail into Sentosa Island to Waterfront Station (that's where Universal Studio located)....

Universal Studio Singapore or best known as USS

Let picture do the talking....enjoy watching!
