OpenMandriva 2013.0 Lx RC2 Released!

And here it comes! A week after RC1, OpenMandriva 2013.0 Lx RC2 is out on schedule!

It’s been mostly bugfixing and polishing at this stage. Nothing much different from RC1. You’ll notice, though, that we’ve only got one launcher for RC2, KickOff. If you want SimpleWelcome, you can install rosa-launcher, if you want Homerun, you can install homerun and if you want Lancelot, you can install plasma-applet-lancelot.

In RC2 we completed the artwork integration. It includes fixing of the plymouth theme, updated GRUB, ksplash, user avatars, and got a brand new screensaver.

Additionally, following the results of the wallpaper contest, “The Flavour of Freedom”, we’ve included the winnersof the contest into 2013.0, which you will be able to find if you want to change your wallpaper! (more…)

Panduan Menginstall dan Mengkonfigurasi Sudo di Mandriva 2010.1

sudo adalah sebuah perintah dalam command-line Linux. Apabila anda memiliki akses root, maka sudo akan melakukan perintah sebagai superuser. Pengguna sudo dan perintah-perintah yang dapat mereka pergunakan terdapat pada file konfigurasi, /etc/sudoers. Apabila seorang pengguna yang tidak berhak mencoba menjalankan perintah, sudo akan memberitahu administrator melalui e-mail. Secara default, pemberitahuan peringatan ini akan disimpoan di akun root.

Pengguna yang mencoba menjalankan perintah akan diminta mengisikan password.Setelah terotentifikasi, sudo akan membuat timestamp untuk pengguna. Selama 5 menit, pengguna akan dapat mengeksekusi perintah-perintah, sampai di akhir menit ke 5 akan diminta untuk mengisikan password. Grace period ini dapat di overwrite dengan mengubah setting pada file /etc/sudoers. (Sumber: Wikipedia) (more…)

The theme for the competition is “The Flavor of Freedom”; so try to stick to the theme.

Tutorial Linux: Remastering Mandriva dengan Tool Draklive

Sebagai orang yang pernah berada didalam project PriOS (http://prios.wordpress.com), naluri untuk menghidupkan kembali OS remastering PCLinuxOS itu memang cukup membara dibenak saya. Sibuk, dan juga ada masalah pada komunitas PCLinuxOS sendiri sehingga muncul saingannya, Unity Linux juga membuat saya tambah gamang.

Sementara OS yang sering dan saya gemari dalam pemakaiannya, Mandriva, terbilang cukup pelik diturunkan ke varian baru. Dari mulai memakai trik yang digunakan MCN Live atau menggunakan core Unity yang masih mandriva-based banget itu. Namun, totalitas belajar harus terus dilestarikan. Putuskan saat itu saya belajar tentang Draklive (sampe sekarang belum mudeng betul).

Sumber belajar tentang tool ini dapat anda temukan di http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/draklive. Walaupun terkesan terlalu ringkas dan tak up-to-date, tapi masih bisa diimplementasikan pada versi Cooker (2011.0) ataupun stable sekarang (2010.1 Spring).

Draklive adalah tool remastering atau mastering berbagai paket produk Mandriva yang resmi dipakai sejak era Mandriva Move berakhir. Tool ini menggantikan keberadaan Mandriva Move tool, mklivecd, linux-live dll.

Filosofi dari Draklive sendiri sederhana, mencoba memberikan sebuah distribusi live yang sangat mendekati produk yang dibuat resmi oleh mandriva. Semua hal yang diperlukan untuk membentuk sistem nyaris mendekati asli itu ditaruh pada bagian initrd script.

Fitur Draklive

  • membuat Live CD,
  • membuat live USB,
  • mudah dites via NFS/Jaringan,
  • menggunakan tool Mandriva Installer untuk menginstalasi ke PC,
  • full write/read ke sistem dengan unionfs,
  • deteksi hardware otomatis dengan harddrake,
  • dan kode struktur yang mudah di oprek.
