General :: How To Run / Play DVD Movie In Linux Mint 8?

Feb 19, 2010

This is my second day of using Linux Mint and I have bunch of questions. Let's start with this one. I tried to play dvd movie yesterday night. I put disc in drive. And nothing happened. Like it's not in there. So I tried to double click (I'm old Windows user trying to learn new stuff) on cd/dvd disc in computer. It's unresponsive. I try right click run with application some kind of movie player. It says 'Could not open location. You might not have permission to open the file'.So I installed VLC and did the same thing but same message appears.So I look at google for the answer and didn't find much. And I was tired and went to sleep.

Today I wake up, turn on my laptop and surprise, surprise! There is some icon on my desktop saying 'Name of the show' (that was the dvd I was trying to open). So I double click it and there are all episodes. And I can now browse it and play any episode I want. So I say, 'hey, there must be something if I eject this dvd, and put it in again, I would have same problem as last night'. And I have. And problem is back. Now I cant play anything again.

General :: How To Enable 32-bit Binary Compatibility On Linux Mint 11 X64

Jul 6, 2011

I've recently installed x64 Linux Mint 11, basically Ubuntu Natty. Since the install I've found that 32-bit applications which used to run on my Ubuntu system are rejected by my Mint 11 system. When I use the 'file' utility to check the binary, it correctly identifies it as a 32-bit elf, but I can't invoke the application. I've tried starting it from bash and os.system a la python, to no avail, so I suspect that it must have something to do with 32-bit binary compatibility mode but my knowledge of that sub-system and how to enable it is limited, can anyone assist?

General :: Installing Mint Over Ubuntu?

Sep 25, 2010

I recently downloaded Ubuntu, with Windows Vista dual booting. I am fed up because Ubuntu won't work with my Broadcom BCM4312 Network Connector. I have decided that I am going to install Linux Mint inplace of Ubuntu. The only thing I am worried about is: Will Mint give me the option of which partiton to put it on? I know this sounds stupid, but I am being very cautious about not deleting my files and Vista.

General :: Using The Mint Live Cd?

Feb 26, 2011

I have heard so many good things about linux and I have heard linux mint is the easiest to use. I was really looking forward to my first Linux experience. I was disappointed to be prompted for a username and password after booting to the Live CD for mint 10. The user manual did not show this step. I searched for help on this but the two suggestions I found did not work. One told me to use mint as the username with a blank password. The other suggested using user and pass for these two fields.

General :: Using VB To Install Mint?

Nov 30, 2010

I am wanting to add Linux Mint to my computer, but I do not have the room to really do a real install on my computer beside Ubuntu and Vista, so I want to install it on a VirtualBox machine. I have a few questions before I do so. A.) Is all this reversible? B.) It will not affect my current system. Like, if something goes wrong with the install for some reason, it will not affect my current Ubuntu OS, which I will be installing it under. C.) When it asks you to create a hard drive, that is reversible, right? And it's only used when you are using VB? D.) About the hard drive you have to create. I have 2 partitions partitions that I use mainly, my / Linux partition, and OS, which is my Windows NTFS partition. If I create the hard drive on OS, will that mess up the VB?

General :: Mint Debian - Can't Get Audio / Need That

Sep 9, 2010

I just installed Mint Debian version on an old desktop computer, but it doesn't play audio.

At first vlc even had the whole audio menu greyed out; I followed this, downloaded the deb and installed it. It seemingly recognized my card, but upon reboot, everything is still silent - though vlc now has the audio section accessible.

If I go under audio preferences and select hardware, no device is present.

Here's some information. code...

Any idea what to do to get audio? Everything else works, I'd hate having to wipe the partition just for this...
