Karmic Koala ca-certificates-java problem solved

Recently i have openjdk problem in my ubuntu karmic koala when installing either using "ubuntu software center" or even the "apt-get install" way. It said "Errors were encountered while processing: ca-certificates-java". I have tried "apt-get -f install", "apt-get clean", "apt-get autoremove", and the problem still there.

Anyway, thanks to you guys out there, i can manage to fix it. Here's my steps:

First i did "sudo dpkg -r --force-all ca-certificates-java" and then "sudo dpkg -r --force-all openjdk-6-jre-headless".
The next step try this: "sudo wget https://launchpad.net/~openjdk/+archive/ppa/+build/1245637/+files/ca-certificates-java_20090629~hardy1_all.deb" (thats right, it works at karmic too).
And finally i installed using "sudo dpkg -i ca-certificates-java_20090629~hardy1_all.deb".

9.04 Release Note

These release notes document known issues with Ubuntu 9.04 and its variants.

System Requirements:
The minimum memory requirement for Ubuntu 9.04 is 256 MB of memory. Note that some of your system's memory may be unavailable due to being used by the graphics card. If your computer has only the minimum amount of memory, the installation process will take longer than normal, but will complete successfully, and the system will perform adequately once installed.

Systems with less memory may be able to select "Install Ubuntu" from the boot menu to run just the installer, rather than the whole desktop, or may be able to use the alternate install CD.

Sharing File Sederhana di Ubuntu Menggunakan Samba

Untuk memastikan samba telah tersedia, ketik :

apt-get search samba

Samba tersedia bila hasil keluarannya seperti di bawah ini :

samba - a LanManager-like file and printer server for Unix
samba-common - Samba common files used by both the server and the client
samba-dbg - Samba debugging symbols
samba-doc - Samba documentation
samba-doc-pdf - Samba documentation (PDF format)
smbclient - a LanManager-like simple client for Unix
smbfs - mount and umount commands for the smbfs (for kernels >= than 2.2.x)

Bila tidak tersedia, install samba dengan perintah berikut :

sudo apt-get install samba smbfs

Kemudian edit file /etc/samba/smb.conf dan buang tanda komentar yang ada pada 'browseable = yes' dan 'writable = no' lalu ubah 'writable' menjadi 'yes'.

Setelah konfigurasi tersebut disimpan, tambahkan user samba dengan cara :

sudo smbpasswd -a username

isi passwordnya. Lalu ketik perintah untuk kembali memulai Samba :

sudo /etc/init.d/samba reload

Untuk sharing folder, dari gui Ubuntu :

- Buka Places / Home
- Buat folder baru lalu klik-kanan dan pilih share-folder
- Di kotak-dialog sharing-folder, pilih Share-through to Windows Network (SMB) dan beri nama foldernya. Hilangkan tanda di Read-Only untuk memberi akses 'write'.

Untuk sinkronisasi user samba dengan user system (smbpasswd dengan passwd), tambahkan kode berikut di file smb.conf :

[1] unix password sync = yes
[2] passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
[3] passwd chat = *New*password* %n\n *Retype*new*password* %n\n *passwd:*all*authentication*tokens*updated*successfully*

Membuat repository ubuntu di lan dari dvd repository

Langkah-langkah untuk membuat repository ubuntu dari dvd repo dan cara aksesnya dari http adalah sbb :

1. buat image dari dvd repository :

dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/path/to/iso/ubuntu-repo-dvd-i386-1.iso

ulangi sampai dvd ke 5 (atau terakhir)

2. mount iso nya :

mount /path/to/iso/ubuntu-repo-dvd-i386-1.iso /media/ubuntu/repo-1 -o loop

ulangi sampe dvd ke 5 (atau terakhir)

3. masukkan baris berikut ini ke /etc/apt/source.list :

deb /media/ubuntu/repo-1/ hardy main restricted

ulangi sampai repo ke 5 (atau terakhir); lihat di folder pool untuk mengetahui jenis repo nya, apakah main, universe, restricted atau multiverse
cat: hardy untuk ubuntu 8.04, inteprid untuk ubuntu 8.10, dst

4. jalankan perintah update :

sudo apt-get update

5. agar otomatis ter-mount setiap booting, masukkan perintah mount di atas ke
/etc/rc.local sebelum kata exit

Untuk menggunakannya melalui komputer lain dalam LAN, gunakan Apache. Buat 'symbolic link' di direktori 'web server' ke folder repo anda (dan ulangi untuk repo2 berikutnya) :

cd /var/www/
sudo ln -s /media/ubuntu/repo-1 repo-1

Ubah kepemilikan folder repo :

cd /media/ubuntu/repo-1
sudo chgrp www-data namauser
chmod 770 namauser

Coba browse melalui http://namarepo

Sekarang ubah sources.list untuk mengaksesnya :

sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

ubah contoh baris berikut dalam file sources.list :

deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper universe multiverse main restricted

menjadi :

#deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper universe multiverse main restricted
deb http://repos/repos/ dapper main universe multiverse restricted

setelah itu update apt dan selamat menggunakan :

sudo apt-get update

8.10 Release Notes

These release notes document known issues with Ubuntu 8.10 and its variants.
System Requirements

The minimum memory requirement for Ubuntu 8.10 is 256 MiB of memory. (Note that some of your system's memory may be unavailable due to being used by the graphics card.)

With only the minimum amount of memory available, the installation process will take longer than normal, but will complete successfully, and the system will perform adequately once installed. Low-memory systems may be able to use the desktop CD to install by selecting "Install Ubuntu" from the boot menu to run just the installer, rather than the whole desktop started by selecting "Try Ubuntu without any change to your computer".
