So you have trouble installing Maple 10 on your ubuntu because *it fails to your detect Host ID*

The problem is because the license manager used in the Maple can only use eth0 (the network device on your notebook). If you are like me, that has notebook with WIFI, ubuntu may not assign your network card to eth0. My notebook was using eth3 before, because I have moved my hard disk to my current notebook. So when you install Maple, it fails to detect your Host ID (your Host ID is based on your eth0 MAC Address).

Now you have to find out which ethernet card number you are using right now, using ifconfig

romi@mesintik:~$ ifconfig
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:01:4A:XX:YY:ZZ
UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)

eth3 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:0E:35:XX:YY:ZZ
inet addr:192.168.1.33 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
inet6 addr: fe80::20e:35ff:fefd:3f1b/64 Scope:Link
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:221396 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:138753 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:1
collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
RX bytes:287095962 (273.7 MB) TX bytes:18427810 (17.5 MB)

Now, for example I need to use eth3 to be eth0.

So, fire up your text editor (I use gedit), and using sudo command:

sudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules

The file contents will look like this:

# This file maintains persistent names for network interfaces.
# See udev(7) for syntax.
#
# Entries are automatically added by the 75-persistent-net-generator.rules
# file; however you are also free to add your own entries.

# PCI device 0x8086:0x1043 (ipw2100)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTRS{address}=="00:04:23:XX:YY:ZZ", NAME="eth1"

# PCI device 0x8086:0x1068 (e100)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTRS{address}=="00:01:4a:XX:YY:ZZ", NAME="eth0"

# PCI device 0x8086:0x4220 (ipw2200)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTRS{address}=="00:0e:35:XX:YY:ZZ", NAME="eth3"


Because we need to change eth3 (HWaddr 00:0E:35:XX:YY:ZZ) to eth0, so you need to edit to change NAME="eth3" to NAME="eth0" and change the previous eth0 to ethX where X can be any number.

So the new file is like below:

# PCI device 0x8086:0x1043 (ipw2100)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTRS{address}=="00:04:23:XX:YY:ZZ", NAME="eth1"

# PCI device 0x8086:0x1068 (e100)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTRS{address}=="00:01:4a:XX:YY:ZZ", NAME="eth3"

# PCI device 0x8086:0x4220 (ipw2200)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTRS{address}=="00:0e:35:XX:YY:ZZ", NAME="eth0"

Now, reboot the system and then start Maple installer and proceed as usual.

Now after that, if you enable Compiz and then Maple screen is only display grey-blank-window, you can make a fix as follows:

First, you need to install java-sun-6 from your Synaptic Package Manager (in the System -> Administration)

Edit a maple file that is /path/to/maple/bin/maple:

Find string MAPLE_JRE_BIN and change it to this

MAPLE_JRE_BIN="/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/bin/"

(Maybe you need to adjust it according with your java installation)

Save and then run xmaple.

Voila!

On my ubuntu…

Masih main-main sama Java pake eclipse.

Masalah: koneksi VPN kalau pake openvpn di linux kok nggak pernah bisa ya?

Ok, itu artinya sesampai di tempat tinggal sekarang, aku masih harus tetap kontak untuk masalah kerjaan lama. No problem, Internet di kantor lama sudah OK banget sejak pindah dari Supidi ke Melsa Kabel. Hard disk dan USB casing masuk koper, notebook kantor tinggal dan berangkat.

Di sini sudah ngantri sang Acer 2001 something. Colok USB casing, piranti terdeteksi and hmmmm kok tidak ada tanda-tanda drive baru keluar ya?

Cabut colokan, pindah ke VAIO kakak.

Sama.

Download Ubuntu Gutsy yang beta, jalankan. Ahhhh apa itu ada di log? USB reset something…

Beberapa hari kemudian, kepikir, kenapa tidak masukkan saja ke notebook sebagai hard disk utama?

Bongkar harddisk VAIO, ganti dengan hard disk yang dikira rusak. Boot ke Ubuntu.

Jalan! Walau cuma mode 800×600, tapi semuanya ada. Tidak majalah masalah. Perbarui driver nvidia, dan semuanya kembali normal.

Terima Kasih Ubuntu!

Persyaratan:

-Ubuntu feisty
-Install wine

Cara menjalankan:

-Double klik PCMAV-CLN.exe

Lho gitu aja? iya

Pertama:
Jika Wine belum terinstalasi, klik pada Add/Remove Program, cari wine dan install.

Kedua:
Buka Terminal dari menu Accesories, ketik
wine msiexec /i sima_setup.msi

Ketiga:
Masih dari Terminal, ini yang rada ribet:
Buat folder
/home/namauser/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Common\ Files/System/ado/
dengan perintah
mkdir /home/namauser/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Common\ Files/System/ado/

Keempat:
Copy file-file dari Windows XP yang ada di bawah C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\ado ke folder /home/namauser/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Common\ Files/System/ado/
Catatan: kalau folder .wine anda tidak kelihatan, Buka Home Folder dari Menu Places, Pilih menu View -> Show Hidden Files

Kelima:
Copy file C:\Windows\System32\msdart.dll ke /home/namauser/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32

Keempat :
Ketikkan dari window Terminal:
wine regsvr32 /home/namauser/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/msdart.dll
Dan
wine regsvr32 /home/namauser/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Common\ Files/System/ado/msado15.dll

Kelima:
Klik icon SIMA dari Desktop, atau dari menu Applications | Wine

Keenam:
Voila

Dan langsung pesta…

Kudu kompile deui euy….

sun-java5 apa sun-java6 ya?
