I just installed Ubuntu 12.10 on my Virtualbox. Overall, Ubuntu 12.10 can run with all features enabled but I feel Ubuntu 12.10 runs very slowly when I tried to minimize or maximize the window. The visual effects seems not run smoothly on Virtualbox. I’ve tried to enable the 3D and increase the VRAM amount on the guest machine but still have this problem.
After searching on Google I found a simple way to disable the visual effects on Ubuntu 12.10. And by disabling this effects, now my Ubuntu 12.10 runs faster on Virtualbox.

Setelah puas bermain-main dan camping di Pantai Pink, saatnya melanjutkan perjalanan ke Tanjung Ringgit kira-kira 2 kilometer sebelah timur Pantai Pink. Di Tanjung Ringgit kita bisa melihat tebing-tebing yang berhadapan langsung dengan pantai selatan Pulau Lombok dengan ombak yang cukup keren. Disana ada juga peninggalan Jepang seperti meriam dan gua-gua bekas perang dunia ke 2. Berikut foto-foto Tanjung Ringgit
Sedikit keluar dari topik blog, beberapa hari lalu saya menyempatkan diri untuk berkeliling Lombok bersama rekan-rekan saya. Ada beberapa pantai yang saya kunjungi. Selain Senggigi dan Gili Trawangan, Lombok masih punya banyak pantai yang jauh lebih indah yang pasti sangat menarik bagi Fotografer lanskap. Salah satu nya adalah Pantai Pink. Disebut Pantai Pink karena memang pasir nya berwarna agak pink.
Saya kurang tahu nama asli dari Pantai Pink ini. Pantai Pink terletak di tenggara Pulau Lombok dan masuk ke Kabupaten Lombok Timur. Jarak tempuh dari Mataram sekitar 2 jam menggunakan mobil atau sekitar 1.5 jam dari Bandara Internasional Lombok (BIL). Jalan sudah aspal dan mulus kecuali sekitar 2 km sebelum pantai jalan sudah rusak parah. Tetapi akan terbayar begitu melihat keindahan Pantai Pink, semua penat dan capek rasa nya langsung hilang. Kita bisa melihat gagahnya Gunung Rinjani dari Pantai Pink.
