In my previous posting[1] I install Debian 5 because my computer can’t install Ubuntu. About two months ago, I know what the problem is. The problem is the motherboard have a little broken. I change the motherboard and I can install Ubuntu 8.10 & 9.04 ^_^.  When the installing finish (I use Ubuntu 9.04)……I very love it…booting faster than Debian 5 and Ubuntu 8.10,  have a new version software included. But I don’t have internet connection, because of this I can’t install software I needed, like wine, mp3 library, mp4 library, real media library, java & others. To do this I must go to warnet (internet rental) and much time to do this. I remember that we can buy DVD repository…..hm…that good idea to buy that.

I ask to “uncle google” and than I found site to sell DVD repository the site is “juragan kambing”[2] and have 6 DVD. The price Rp. 69.000,- + charges Rp. 8.000,- = Rp. 77.000,-. That cheap price, but I don’t have much money to buy that..wuakakakaaaa..ha..ha…ha…I must waiting he..he..he…he…

price repos ubuntu

Three days after that I chat with my friend, he worked in the Computer Laboratory at the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, University of Indonesia. I ask him, can he help me to get a DVD repository and because I now don’t have much money…can I borrow his money. And then he answer that he can help me, he will buy DVD repository and give to me free……whuaaaaaaa…..I’m very happy ^_^ . Thanks to my friend Mas Ridwan, I hope Allah gives the reward of that. Amin.

It’s about four days I’m waiting DVD repository. I’m so happy ^_^. Now I can install software I needed. But I have problem that I can’t play all real media format. I has install needed library, but still have problem….whuaaaaaa….shit.

I ask again to “uncle google” and found Super OS (formerly: Super Ubuntu)[3]. Super OS (formerly: Super Ubuntu) is just a modified version of Ubuntu 9.04 with the goal of making it more usable (see: Super OS and Ubuntu), but includes:

  • Better Multimedia Support: VLC, support for DVD-playback, MP3 support and other multimedia codecs
  • Better Internet experience: aMSN, Opera, Firefox, Flash, Moonlight and Google Gears
  • Portable Applications available (you need to install RUNZ – it will be inlcuded in the next release)
  • Programs are easier to run: App Runner is included
  • Other software: Java, Ubuntu Tweak, StartUp-Manager
  • System beep is disabled
  • NEW: Super OS now has it’s own repository, in addition to the official Ubuntu repositories
  • NEW: Live USB creator (cd2usb) right from the DVD menu (see second image)
  • NEW: Most commonly used KDE and QT libraries included (for easier deployment of software and portable apps)

I downloaded that distro and installed in my computer. Because Super OS (formerly: Super Ubuntu) is a remastered version of Ubuntu 9.04, I can still use my DVD repository…greaaatttt ^_^. Until now I use Super OS (formerly: Super Ubuntu).

I will review about Super OS in next posting ……^_^
