Dial Up Connection In Ubuntu 10.10

There are many people get some difficulties when they try linux for the first time. And one oof the best thing that can annoy a beginner is the difficulty to use the dial up modem for their main connection to the internet. Most of them use the network manager applet that laid on the pannel,but some of them found problems,they can connect to the internet but they can't browse the internet. It's normal,if you use the network applet . But,it can be resolved by using wvdial. But you can only run it on the terminal. Here are the steps :
1. Plug your modem on the computer.
2. Install wvdial in you terminal, by typing 'apt-get install wvdial' ... if you are connected with online/offline repositories,but if you are not connected then you must download the wvdial and dependencies then install it.
3. after installing, type 'wvdialconf ', and wait for the wvdial to check the existance of modem.
4. After finish the wvdialconf command,then you have to write 'gedit  /etc/wvdial.conf ' .
5. Then write this to the wvdial.conf


[Dialer Defaults]
Modem = /dev/ttyUSB2
Baud = 1843200
Modem Type = Analog Modem
Init2 = ATZ
Init3 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
Init4 = AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","<write your apn here>"
Dial Command = ATDT
Phone = *99#
Username = <write your username>
Password = <write your password>
Stupid Mode = yes


6. Then save it, after all type 'wvdial' and Enter it.

Making DVD Video with Windows 7

To create a DVD in a very easy and simple but good results, here are the steps:

For the first, first open Windows DVD Maker,  from the Windows 7 Button, click All Programs, and select Windows DVD Maker,as the example, see below :

If it already opened, select the movie files that you will process by pressing the Add items button 

that exists on the top left corner of Windows DVD Maker

We choose 3 pieces of the movie just as an example. Then click the Next button on the bottom

then a window will appear  where you can choose which files are to be used. It is recommended that the movie format is . avi or. wmf

Furthermore, we can choose the initial view of the DVD that we will create, how will be the menu, etc.. To start screen (Menu Style) then select Bandwidth.

Now we write down  what menu we want to have in our DVD. Click the Menu text button at the top of existing  application

Now we can write the menu, take example as in the figure below where the DVD title (title) is the journey of Hajj, then fill the Play Button with Play DVD, fill the fields Scene Button with Scene, and fill Notes Button with records. Click the Change Text

As a result we can see that what we had written, already visible in the DVD Menu Style. If completed, then click the Burn button. Do not forget to insert a blank DVD into theDVD Drive. (you can also view it first,by clicking preview button)

Then a window  will appear near the lower right Task Bar, near the clock and the language bar, show the process of burning DVDs. Long enough depends on the length movies and the ability of VGA card or notebook PC.

If it's completed, your DVD is ready to be enjoyed on regular DVD player.

Hopefully helpful

Troubleshoot

Computer troubleshooting

Computer is a very important tool at this time, we take one example on the activities of offices, of course with computers  the job can be completed  quickly. As a user or users of the computer,ofcourse, we also have experienced problems with the computer. This can be caused by incompatibility of the basic components of the computer itself that is usually associated with the Software (or software application),hardware (hardware) or Brainware (the user's computer).

Understanding Computer Troubleshooting

In the world of computers, all-things-computer-related problem called Troubleshooting,and problems in the computer of course there're causes. On this occasion we will be a little learning to detect problems on your computer, especially that related to Hardware.
For problems with the software you should do a simple detection as the examination to files which relate to the Software or the specification of the demand(requirements) of the Software. If the issue is complex, you should re-install software, because it would be too complicated to fix a software, while for problems with Brainware, the writer can only give advice "LEMBIRU ...".

Then for the next steps in troubleshooting will be explained in Indonesian Languange. And you can download it HERE.

Computer Architecture II

I. Input Device

Input devices are divided into two groups, namely direct and indirect input devices.
• direct input device consists of several classes for example: keyboard, pointing device,scanner, voice recognizer.
• indirect input device comprising: key-to-card, key-to-tape, key-to-disk.
• Modem
• Light pen
• Bar code reader


 II. SECONDARY MEMORY (MEMORY SECONDARY)


Some examples of the size of secondary memory speed is as follows.
• Pre-IDE: It has a speed of 3600 RPM
• IDE: It has a speed of 5200 RPM
• IDE / SCSI: It has a speed of 5400 RPM
• IDE / SCSI: It has a speed of 10,000 RPM


  Some characters, such as:


• The nature of the permanent storage (persistent), so the secondary storage media needs to be separated from the main processing unit (central processing unit / CPU) and main memory (main memory), and is connected by cable / bus to the processing unit (processor) and main memory
(main memory)
• Ability to be used together (shareability)
• The ability to store some data, information, and program


Data processing steps from the secondary memory are


• Determine the location of data on external memory (external memory / storage)
• processor will read the data, and copy data from external memory
• (external memory / storage)Go to the main memory (main memory)



III. OUTPUT DEVICE


The output resulting from processing can be classified into four forms, namely the text (letters, numerals, special symbols), image (in the form of graphs or pictures), sounds,and other forms that can be read by machine (machine-readable form).


Output equipment can be:
• Hard-copy devices,
is a tool used to print text and image on hard media such as paper or film.
• Soft-copy devices,
is a tool used to display text and image in the media in the form of soft electronicsignals.


Output the first form is permanent in nature and more portable (can be removed from the output devices and can be taken anywhere). A common tool that use  this is a printer,plotter, and microfilm equipment. The second form of output can be either a videodisplay, flat panel, and speakers. And the third form of output devices that use magnetic media disk is disk driver, and which use the magnetic tape media is  tape driver.

Modern Computer Architecture

First you should understand how the computer works and how the computer's made. You can learn all the things about architecture of Computer by web books,you can find those things here. But, because actually what i wanna discuss is the matter that wanna be used for examination at STMIK AMIKOM, so that, i just wanna explain you about the architecture of modern PC. Here is the picture 

picture 1 

It consists of 4 part for modern PC :

1. memory

The word "memory" is used to describe an electronic circuit that is able to accommodate data and program instructions. Memory can be thought as a workspace for computer and memory also determine the size and number of programs that can run in the same time, as well as the amount of data that can be processed. Memory is sometimes called as the primary storage, primary memory, main storage, main memory, internal storage or  random access memory (RAM). There are four different types of computer memory, those are :

• random access memory
• read-only memory
• CMOS memory
• virtual memory

RAM is called volatile memory. Which means if the electrical power removed from the computer and the computer is dead, then all content that is in RAM will be lost permanently. Because, RAM is temporary and volatile, then people create a permanent storage. This is usually called as secondary storage. Secondary storage is durable and non-volatile too, this means all data or programs stored in it can still exist even if the power or electricity is turned off. Some examples of secondary storage, for instance, are a magnetic tape, hard disk, magnetic disk and optical disk.

Read Only Memory 

Read Only Memory (ROM) is a set of chips that contain part of the operating system which is needed when the computer starts up. ROM is also known as a firmware. ROM is not writable or changeable for the user. ROM classified in the media that are non-volatile storage. ROM chips come from the factory with programs or instructions that have been stored in it. The only way to replace its contents is removing it from the computer and replace it with another ROM.
The function of this ROM as a storage such example is the BIOS (Basic Input-Output System) which is made by the manufacturer. BIOS is a very critical part of an operating system, which functions to tell the computer how do I access the disk drives. When the computer is turned on, RAM is still empty and there are instructions in the ROM BIOS that is used by the CPU to find the disk drive that contains the main files in the operating system. Computer transfer those files into RAM and then run it. 
There are three variations of the ROM, namely: 
PROM, or programmable read only memory. PROM chip is a chip that is empty in which the program can be written into it by using a special equipment. PROM chips can be programmed once and usually used by the factory as control devices in its products. 
EPROM, or erasable programmable read only memory. EPROM similar to PROM, but the program can be removed and the new program could be written into it by using a special equipment that uses ultraviolet light. EPROM is used for controlling devices, such as robots and so forth. 
EEPROM, or electronic erasable programmable read only memory. EEPROM chip can be reprogrammed using a special electric impulses. They do not need to be revoked or modified.


CMOS

CMOS (pronounced "seemoss") stands for "complementary metal oxidesemiconductor". CMOS is a special memory that contains vital data about your computer configuration and it's semi-permanent. Without this data, the computer will not be able to operate. CMOS is more permanent than RAM and less permanent than ROM. CMOS requires very little power to maintain its contents, and these chips utilize batteries as a source of electrical power. When a change is needed into the computer system configuration (eg no additional hard drive, adding RAM, etc.), then the CMOS can be changed by running a special utility programs are available through the operating system.

Virtual Memory

Virtual memory is a data storage method in which part of the program or data stored in the magnetic disk and not in RAM, until such time as necessary. This will provide a kind of illusion that the RAM is unlimited. Means, virtual memory simulate itself as a RAM.It allows a computer to run more programs than ever before, manipulate larger data and also runs a large program without fear of shortage of RAM. Virtual storage is slower than RAM and non-volatile nature.
How the data and programs can be stored in memory.
The computer's main memory can be thought of as a two-dimensional table, where each cell has a unique address. Where each cell can store one byte of data using eight capacitors which represent eight bits in a byte.

2. Optical Drive

Optic device is a device that is easy to use. In fact, nearly every computer, must have a minimum of optical devices for reading CD (CD-ROM) or read a DVD (DVD-ROM).Especially when using a burner, you can write data in the form of documents, music, and video into a CD or DVD blank.
Both the CD-Audio and CD-ROMs use the same technology, which together made
of resin (polycarbonate), and coated by highly reflective surfaces such as aluminium. The information is digitally recorded as microscopic pits on a reflective surface. This process is carried out using high intensity laser.

3. Hard Disk


Hard Drive is an external storage media. The ability of the PC is determined also by theperformance of your hard disk. Characteristics of Harddisk:
- Capacity is the ability of the hard drive to store data. The unit is bytes.
- The speed of play, the disc rotation speed of disk per minute. Unit rpm (rotation perminutes) rotational speed of 7200-10000
- The physical size avg is 3.5 inches. Which measures 5 + inches long, now began to be developed 2 + inches and 1 + inch.
- Transfer rate is how fast data can be transferred to and from the disk (platter) to perform the process of writing or reading data.
- Access time avg, average amount of time that it takes to move the heads from one cylinder to another cylinder in a random distance.


4. Processor



Processor is the brain of the computer. A computer must have a processor, because the processor is the principal component of the system using processsor komputer.Hampir all PCs made by Intel or compatible with processors made by Intel, such as artificial IBM, AMD and Cyrix. The types of processors that have been produced by Intel, among others: Pentium, Pentium-MMX, Pentium Pro, Pentium II, Pentium III, Pentium IV, dual core, core 2 duo, quart core.Fan Processor is a tool used to keep the processor not too hot temperature. 


Instruction Processor 


Instruction Cycle divided into two cycles of Cycle Fetch and Execute Cycle. 
or series of actions performed on the CPU to execute each machine language contained in the program. 


Fetch Cycle includes the step reading instruction from main memory and read data from main memory. 


Execute Cycle covers the execution of existing instructions and save the results of instruction. 
In simple processors, each instruction to be executed is inserted into the IR and will remain stored during the decoding process, prepared and finally executed. 


Program Counter will automatically iterate for every instruction cycle, registers in a computer processor that stores sequences of instructions, save the instruction address which is in execution or save the address of next instruction to be executed, branching and subprogram is processed by doing the interrupt to the PC. 
In almost all PC processors will directly diincrement after taking instruction to be placed on IR. 


Instruction set is a set of instructions can be executed by the processor. 
Existing instruction set processors are arithmetic and logic instructions, instruction data, and control instructions. 


Instruction Register (IR) 
Part of the CPU that holds the instruction being executed. Use of this IR will be slightly different if using a processor complex, for example, for processors that use the pipeline technique
