Amazing Blender 3D.. nice new UI... first time experience..

It's been a while since my last used in version 2.49, now Blender 2.5 alpha 0 has released, so many changes, and my first word was "woow".. nice looking UI.. much more like professional 3D suite app. At first used, it's so much confusing me, so much different layout..what great is nice new icon and appearance of whole application. I haven't try all it's features and new features, but mostly some changes have added. For this time, with short used experience, I'll give thumbs up for Blender. Can't wait for 2.6 release... :D. Try Blender..!!!

Instant Messaging in multiple account with Palringo

Finally I got something to write..haha.. I think this is quite useful information for you who is a chat addict.. This day when I surf and looking for new applications to use in multiple chat account like Y! Messenger, GTalk, and Facebook which is becoming more popular nowadays in my country... I found something interesting, an application I' ve never heard before (or I'm just to late.. :D).. called Palringo. The reason I search for this kind of applications is that for late few days, I've been annoying by Facebook chat taskbar I'm using all this time, which is slow to load and had some delay when messages come almost in the same time. I've used Y! Messenge client installed, but you know, sometime one application for multiple job is better than many applicatons, isn't it. One thing I love from this Palringo is that it has a mobile version to..
Well, I won't too much write here, just try it your self.. You can find Palringo here http://www.palringo.com/en/gb/download/

Thanks to SUN Microsystems and Google too..

Few days ago during my holiday in my hometown, I got two shipments from Google and Netbeans.org (SUN Microsystems). Google has sent me an account information about activating my Google Adsense payment, and from SUN Microsystems, I got a Netbeans DVD which I've requested about couple weeks ago. Thanks to Netbeans.org for allowing DVD request again. It was litle bit suprising because they came almost in the same time. Yeah.. I'm glad..specially for SUN Microsystems, and within this post I would say Thank You very much for sending me a DVD and giving me one more good stuff to learn java, Thanks a lot... And for Google, I hope I can reach the minimum payment amount for my Adsense, then I will be so glad if you (my blog readers) can help me achieving my goal..hahaha..by clicking one (just once) of my blog adsense..haha..that's all and fell free for comment...

Wish : Bring AMFPHP Back to Life!!!!

Well, this day I got an interesting article here that compare AMFPHP and Zend_AMF, and what I'm thinking after reading it, is that maybe not a good choice to abandon AMFPHP, but this only my personal opinion, I don't know if you had yours. Personally, I got a good result in using AMFPHP, better than Zend_AMF. The first thing that make AMFPHP better is that no such complex configuration to use it, just copy + paste (or upload) and done... And the service browser is kind of amazing tool. In Zend_AMF, I had a "contrary" experiences, more things to do to get it works fine. And one of the most disturbing thing for me is that I have to access php.ini to install Zend, well, in some of my case I can't just accessing that php.ini file, and until today I got no idea how to install zend without changing the php.ini, or if you know please comment.

AMFPHP, for me, as a newbie in Flex and PHP is a great tool to use. Simple to install and quite small... BTW, I appreciate what Mr. Wade Arnold had chosen, and maybe such a great thing for Zend_AMF development. But as a newbie, I have a wish, please Bring AMFPHP Back to Life!!!! or make Zend_AMF as simple as AMFPHP, thats all...

My First Adobe AIR App...(PDFCollector)

Well, it's been long..long time since my last post. This time I got another time to write on this blog, still with my experiences using new technology or as result of my learning process. Like this one, result of my short month learning the Adobe Flex and AIR. This two technology is quite exiting me because I just love Flash, which is used as the base of this two technology. Well for now, I'm sharing this app. due to my willing to share with others. Although I'm not sure if this application is useful enough. I called this app. PDFCollector, it is a basic implementation of adobe AIR file manipulation function. Not to sophisticated but. I think useful enough for managing you PDF files. Finally, please try this app. then I appreciate if you like to give some suggestion of maybe some thing useful for me about Flex and AIR.

Download PDFCollector here through Download box in sidebar

this app. require Adobe AIR

Dual Boot Vista and Mac using Vista bootloader

There is some good video tutorial about dual boot mac and vista in Intel/AMD PC. But some are really hard to watch. I'm doing a little experiment on my friends notebook which is fujitsu (I don't know what series..) installing Vista and Mac on it. And it just work well dual booting them. So, here is the condition : I have 4 partition : 1st partition is vista installed, 2nd and 3rd for data files. And the last partition (4th) I use to install Mac (kalyway 10.5.2). Well this is what I do (after read some tutorial and watch some videos) :

1. boot up with your vista DVD, then choose repair computer
2. select Command Promt from the dialog appear
3. type this : diskpart (then press Enter)
select disk 0
select partition 1 (where vista installed)
active (set it to active partition)
exit

4. the type this : bootrec /rebuildbcd
y (press y, mean "yes" for the question)

5. set the Mac partition to active, type this : diskpart
select disk 0
select partition 4 (where Mac installed)
active
exit

is everything run well, you should now select which OS to use... that's it..

note: this notebook keyboard is not working (I'm using an external usb keyboard) cause of different layout or not supported, I haven't know yet..

hope this help... fell free for comment or correct me if I'm wrong...

Dual Boot Mac (Kalyway 10.5.2) and Windows XP using Darwin Bootloader

Ahh... finnaly I got another time to post... and here is My new experience..
Well, since Apple decide to use Intel proc. Mac / OSX can be installed on a regular PC (like mine) both Intel and AMD (read the OSX HCL here). And since I got a new Motherboard after my older MB crash, I bought a new one which is fortunately listed in OSX HCL in wiki. Seems like my ambition nearly come, and yes it came to me. And this is how I dual booting my computer an OSX and a Windows XP.
First, here is my computer specs..:
- Motherboard ASUS P5KPL-AM
- 2 Gb ram (visipro)
- 160 Gb SATA HD (seagate)
- 1 DVD-RW (Pioneer)
- Geforce 7200GS 256Mb VGA (digital alliance)
- regular 15" monitor (samsung)
- common  USB mouse and keyboard (PS2 not recommended)
that's mine...


OK, I have condition like this :
My harddisk have 4 patitions (in Windows) : C (40Gb NTFS), D (60Gb NTFS), E (40Gb NTFS), and F(20Gb Empty). C used as windows partition, which have Windows XP installed, D and E already contain data and files. So, I have only partiton no.4 (F) left and this partition will be my Mac partition.
Let's do the fun part.... Set your BIOS to boot from CD/DVD ROM first then insert your Kalyway DVD. After Darwin loading press Enter for default boot or press F8 to give some boot options. Some PC Hardware need options for installing Mac.In My PC I used this option : -v -x cpus=1. If you have Dual Core Processor, sometimes the option cpus=1 needed. For more explaination about options please refer to some OSX Forums or just Google it. For now, you can use options like mine.
Wait for a while, if anything running well, you should now face the installer GUI. Select Tools > Disk Utility and the Disk Utility will appear. Now select partition no. 4 (F). Select Erase tab, then erase the disk, format with the default Mac file system (Mac Extended (Journaled)). Click erase, when it done, close the Disk Utility.
Now you can select the partition you just created as the destination disk. You may customize the installated package or just go with the default package. In My PC I select NVinject and NVinject 256Mb for my graphic driver. Now press Install if you ready.
Wait till the installation complete. Restart your computer and remove the Kalyway DVD, if it cannot be removed then set the boot sequence to Harddisk first.
Normally you can now boot with the installed Mac /OSx. You will be ask to fill some informations. But in My case, I have the "HFS+ Partition error" after my second boot to OSX. This kind of error in My case, due to the Mac patition is fail to recognized as the active partition, so the solution is set it to active partition.

Ok now for dual boot. Now we have two OS in the same PC but only one (which is Mac) can be loaded by darwin bootloader (Mac bootloader). But in mine, no one can booted and what I have to do is set the partitions which have OS installed to active one.
Here is what I do, put the Kalyway DVD in CD/DVD ROM, restart and set first boot sequence to CD/DVD ROM again. Boot with Kalyway DVD, then after Darwin loaded press F8. Write -s and press Enter to boot into single user mode. Now after you are in the single user mode here is what to do :
to activate Windows partition (in partition 1 / C) run :

fdisk -e dev/rdisk0
flag 1
write
update
reboot

After reboot you can now boot Windows Xp. Then to activate Mac partition which is partition no 4 restart you computer, enter single user mode again and run :

fdisk -e dev/rdisk0
flag 4
write
update
reboot

"flag 4" used to set patition no.4 to active, so if you installed Mac at partition no.2 (for example) then use flag 2. Or in the other word use "flag n" which n refer to partition number of your installed Mac.
If anything running well, now you can select which partition to boot. Press any key when darwin booting then you can select which partition to boot. To boot windows select first partition, and to boot whic Mac select partition no. 4. That's all I do to dual boot XP and MAc in PC. Please note that this only works with Windows XP, and some PC hardware will have different results.

And also note that this article is for learning purpose only and I'm not suggest you to do piracy with Mac. If you love Mac then buy the real Mac if you can.

OK that's all for now and Good Luck. Fell free for comment....
