downloaded Amarok and Juk.. and i'm kinda new to linux. I think i'm missing some magical components that will let mp3's play. it's very quiet right now and it's kind of unnerving.. my stereo's gone and i really don't have much music in formats that my computer will play. I ran a search and i guess my question was so basic no one else had trouble with it :/

View 13 Replies View RelatedI made a live DSL cd from the iso file, I dont know how to verify the checksum thingy, so I am flying in the dark there.the disk was working and loaded up fine (graphics looked good, some type in color, the litte penguin icon was cool ect.) the problem comes when the gui loaded and the desktop came up then the screen was nearly white and the type was nearly illegible. I could make out the welcome screen with a faq page and what not , but i could not read it.
I rebooted again this time i went to the boot menu and selected the vga option that indicated it was the best for display problems.,
then the screen loaded as garbled red and orange stripes. i have no documentation, so i need the software to autodetect the display resolutions, ect. also the touch pad makes the pointer dissapear the first time you touch it. the unit is a compaq presario

96,000 k of ram
4 gig hd

it was running windows 2000 but i want that to go away, im trying to learn about linux.so my goal is not to run DSL but rather to load some linux distro that is simple, gui based ,and fairly trouble free.
i hope some one could help me regarding samba.. i am running a FC13 acting as a samba server & an IP of 192.168.0.3.. I have already installed samba from the fedora core repo..

You might not have permission to use this network resource. etc. the network path is not found.I already open the port 139 & 445 for samba to pass trough the firewall.. but the problem is still the same.

Some cool app that does it for me would be preferable, since I havent had any luck changing the xorg.conf manually.
Also, I have installed the free open source ATI Radeon drivers, but I'm not sure im actually using it.My xorg.conf is pretty bland and doesnt list any particular drivers.

I know there is lots of documentation out there for installing tar balls but I can't make it work I am trying to work with this file sauerbraten_2009_05_04_trooper_edition_linux.tar.bz2 in file:///home/Nemesis/Downloads/sauerbraten_2009_05_04_trooper_edition_linux.tar.bz2
I am running Fedora 12, the gnome desktop if the desktop matters. I have been running Fedora almost elusively for 2 years and off n on before that but in my many attempts at trying to Install a TARBALL I have always failed hard.
Well, I've been trying to get a program called SRS Audio Sandbox to work under Wine, but since it works with the audio output, it requires an audio driver and looks for the Windows one instead of the Linux one. Any way to emulateimitate that driver so it'll work?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've setup the .ssh/authorized_keys and am able to login with the new "user" using the pub/private key ... I have also added "user" to the sudoers list ... the problem I have now is when I try to execute a sudo command, something simple like:
$ sudo cd /root
it will prompt me for my password, which I enter, but it doesn't work (I am using the private key password I set)Also, ive disabled the users password using
$ passwd -l user
I am trying to harden my system ... the ultimate goal is to use pub/private keys to do logins versus simple password authentication. I've figured out how to set all that up via the authorized_keys file.Additionally I will ultimately prevent server logins through the root account. But before I do that I need sudo to work for a second user (the user which I will be login into the system with all the time).
For this second user I want to prevent regular password logins and force only pub/private key logins, if I don't lock the user via" passwd -l user ... then if i dont use a key, i can still get into the server with a regular password.But more importantly I need to get sudo to work with a pub/private key setup with a user whos had his/her password disabled.
1) I've adjusted /etc/ssh/sshd_config and set PasswordAuthentication no This will prevent ssh password logins (be sure to have a working public/private key setup prior to doing this
2) I've adjusted the sudoers list visudo and added
root ALL=(ALL) ALL
dimas ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
3) root is the only user account that will have a password, I am testing with two user accounts "dimas" and "sherry" which do not have a password set (passwords are blank, passwd -d user)
The above essentially prevents everyone from logging into the system with passwords (a public/private key must be setup). Additionally users in the sudoers list have admin abilities. They can also su to different accounts. So basically "dimas" can sudo su sherry, however "dimas can NOT do su sherry. Similarly any user NOT in the sudoers list can NOT do su user or sudo su user.

I'm having trouble getting compiz to work on my Laptop. It worked for a while and then I turned on Shift Switcher and a message popped up saying..."The new value for the button binding for the action Terminate in plugin Shift Switcher conflicts with the action Zoom Window of the Scale Addons plugin. Do you wish to disable Zoom Window in the Scale Addons plugin?" I was given the option of Set Terminate anyway, Don't set Terminate, and Disable Zoom Window. I clicked Don't set Terminate and ever since the only thing that works in compiz are the bindings in the general options. I've used synaptic to completely remove and then reinstall compiz but the problem persist. Something else weird, all of the changes I made are still there, even after complete removal, but they don't work?

View 8 Replies View RelatedI just recently (about an hour ago) installed Ubuntu Netbook edition on my old laptop, and I was greeted with the message, that unity could not be run due to some sort of missing driver...fair enough, I was then greeted with the default Ubuntu desktop, I installed all my needed software (wine, google chrome) and installed the missing display drivers. I then rebooted the system, and once again I am stuck with the default desktop, and not the Unity interface. I checked the software center, and it says Unity IS in fact installed.. And yet I cannot make it appear. So now I ask you Ubuntu veterans. How do I make it work?
P.S. I wiped the system of windows, and the computer is an old HP Pavilion DV6000

View 4 Replies View RelatedI need to modify fs/open.c and fs/read_write.c to make my modifications. I cannot find any options in 'make menuconfig' to make these files modules rather than compiled elements. I'm thinking these cannot be modules because the file system won't work without open.c and read_write.c. Is this correct - I cannot compile fs/open.c and fs/read_write.c as modules, only as compiled elements? Or, is there some way for a module to overwrite these routines when the module is installed and re-enable the routines when the module is removed?
