Locating the desire of Themes

Usually I used Firefox as the default browser and also download directly by Firefox Download Manager. But recently I need to paused and resume my download files because it’s huge file and I must paused and resume later.

Well, usually I used wget with all the stuff but I like GUI better than command line application, so I tried to search in google with the keyword “download manager ubuntu“. I have found several GUI DOWNLOAD MANAGER for Ubuntu especially I use it for my Hardy Heron.

1. Multi Get

This application already complete with many feature and of course can be resume. But till now I couldn’t use with more than 10 thread. I don’t why the developer limit the thread. I recommended MultiGet as your GUI Download Manager.

Download.

2. Downloader for X

In the command line it said d4x. It’s easy to install just use this command :

sudo apt-get install d4x

I like this application too, completed like MultiGet and plus Schedule mode. Number of thread or split files also 10 files. I don’t why developer love with the number 10.

3. ProzGUI

ProzGUI is the development of Prozilla. ProZilla is command line downloader and this will suck up your Internet bandwidth. I like the ProZilla because it can split as much as you want. Unfortunately we can’t do it in the ProzGUI. ProzGUI has 30 maximum file to split and it’s to simple so I can’t do more than just download. If you’d like to try you can download using Synaptic Package Manager, but you must added in the repository this command line first :
deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian sarge main
Click at System | Administration | Software Resources and choose Third Party and add those command. And then you can reload install at the Synaptic Package Manager.

I have try several application in Ubuntu Hardy Heron 8.0.4 to mount ISO Image files as Virtual Drive in my Ubuntu. But if you want to know how to create ISO Image file in Ubuntu, I have posted in here. And here’s some application that I’ve tried :

1. gisomount

If you want to install it just went to System | Administration | Synaptic Package Manager, and then find gisomount and install it. Command line using terminal :

<code>sudo apt-get install gisomount </code>

How to use it :

Open terminal, and type :

<code> sudo gisomount </code>

2. gmountiso

The same way like above, or using terminal command line :

<code>sudo apt-get install gmountiso </code>

Then you can use at Applications | System Tools | Gmount-iso.

I hope this can help you to have a Virtual Drive from ISO Image in Ubuntu 8.0.4

Previously I used Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 as my Operating System at my PC and I don’t have much problems choosing which media player if I want to play some DVD or MP3. I have Winamp, Windows Media Player (as default), and my last player VLC Player.

VLC media player is a highly portable multimedia player for various audio and video formats (MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, DivX, mp3, ogg, …) as well as DVDs, VCDs, and various streaming protocols. It can also be used as a server to stream in unicast or multicast in IPv4 or IPv6 on a high-bandwidth network.

Right now I use Ubuntu 8.0.4 with all the stuf within.  I use Totem Movie Player 2.22.1 as default multimedia player in my PC. It run well at the first time, I use it for playing MP3. But today when I tried to play SmallVille Session 6 DVD Version, suddenly it stuck and I can’t play it. So, I decided to install VLC player from the repositories and yes it run well and now I can play any multimedia I’d like to play.
