Karmic Koala, back into legacy GRUB

One of  a lot of new feature of Ubuntu Karmic Koala (9.10) is GRUB2 (GRand Unified Bootloader 2).  GRUB2 has replaced formerly known GRUB-Legacy (0.9x), which no longer being developed. It has significant different comparing with previous version, there is no longer /boot/grub/menu.lst  file, GRUB2 boot menu handled by /boot/grub/grub.cfg. This file automatically generated when system boot. but how if we still want to use old stuff, For example, i didn’t succeed to configure this newest version for pc_efi boot, meanwhile i need this for dual booting with my OSX86.

LG-KU250 Storage Mode got problem in Karmic Koala

I got litle trouble after upgrading to karmic koala, since the upgrade I’ve had problems with usb-storage. After i plug the device, system not mount anything. Actually this issue happened in Jaunty, but finally working after i did litle trick, add this line into /etc/modules :

usb-storage option_zero_cd=2

But in Karmic, it doesn’t work as i expected . This problem happened because device id 05c6:1000 is not initialized correctly and stopped with result :

[  144.565583] usb 2-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
[  144.576078] usb-storage: probe of 2-1:1.0 failed with error -5

So i guess this happened in all devices which share these IDs (used by a Qualcomm chipset for storage device)
I wish i can find a solution immediately, Damn, i’ts so annoying if i remove first memory card from my mobile phone, then connected through Card Reader just for data exchange

Solving Eclipse Galileo problem in Karmic Koala (Ubuntu 9.10)

Yesterday i’ve upgraded my ubuntu with latest version 9.10 (Karmic Koala). After installing a lot of application, i was trying to install my favorite IDE, Eclipse 3.5 (Galileo). but something goes wrong after. i was not able to push OK button or Cancel button etc.
At that time i tought that main problem is my eclipse. Before i upgraded to karmic. i was install some plugins. that doesn’t matter in 9.04. but after install fresh copier of Galileo i still found this problem. Finally i found it, the main problem is about in how eclipse use GTK. In linux eclipse use GTK Library for handling interface, so it can be more native look.
