I am running Fedora 9 in virtual box on laptop. Want to set Fedora display size so that I will not have to scroll up or down or sideways to view screen contents. Have tried a couple of options such a resize box and change from full size but these do not help reduce size of Fedora display. Am wondering if it as something to do with the rectangular size of laptop monitor???

If i am albe to get it to work i will be able to use linux for the 30 laptops we use for our presentations, which is good because windows is giving us some performance problems.
the powerpoint file in question was created in 2010 and has embedded videos in it. Openoffice and LibreOffice do not seem to be able to display the slides right, let alone the videos.
I want to hopefully get the viewer working, or i will have to just remake the powerpoint in odf
I am having trouble viewing videos with the movie player. It plays the audio just fine but only has flashes of video throughout. I believe it has something to do with the frame rate but I don't know how to change it. I have read about frame drop and it is used on slow computers but my computer is an AMD Phenom x6. What can I do to play this video?

Example of links on the page:
<a href="images/*random numbers*.jpg" target="_blank"><img border=0 width=112 height=150 src="images/tn_*random numbers*.jpg" style="position:relative;left:3px;top:3px" /></a>

Well I have been trying to view some flash videos on the net and apparantly need to update my flash player. So I go to the Adobe page and download the YUM for Linux. It says it's installed, but I still can't view flash videos.
Recently I came across a video I wanted to see from Veoh and you only get 5 minutes preview unless you install the veoh web player.. and guess what.. its for windows only! I heard its working under wine.
Anyway, after some looking around and trying different scripts and programs, the only thing that worked for me was a firefox extension (which unfortunately requires registration - which fortunately takes really 5 seconds. No e-mail confirmations etc. - and unfortunately has a website FULL of ads and pop ups! I hope they dont start asking for money soon). So, the extension is [URL] I dont know if you can install it from addons.mozilla.org . I logged in yet found no install button.. had to go to developers website.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've just upgraded to the LTS and now I can't watch any videos on Your Tube via Flash in either Firefox or Chrome. I had the issue with Chrome before I upgraded, but I could still see them in Firefox without an issue and I figured the upgrade would fix this. I am getting the error message 'The Adobe Flash plug-in has crashed' and then underneath the viewing panel it says 'Upgrade to Flash Player 10 for improved playback performance. Upgrade Now or More Info.' I have checked in the software centre and it is showing a green tick next to Adobe Flash plug-in for Mozilla.

Situation is the same no matter what browser I use (generally Swiftfox). If I switch to XFCE, there are no issues. Using standard install of 13.1 and have no other issues. Have no idea where to look or what to look for.
View 6 Replies View RelatedSo I installed Project64 (For those who don't know it is a Nintendo 64 emulation program so I can get my Mario fix), Which I always read is hard to put on a Linux. I didn't think I had WINE so I ran $ whereis wine and I guess I do. But I never set a config for it, So I don't get how an install through wine would work. How was the .exe read?, Because I thought wine had to run to read those, and I don't think it ran. At least there was no visible sign when I installed.
||-2nd part-||
I got my Project64.exe, put it in a directory I made, did the $ ch commands to change permission , did $cd <dir> then I ran ./Directory:$ Project.64.exe 'gamefile.z64' and it seems to work fine. Except for it leaves the display as 800X600 after I close it. Why is it changing display size, and not returning to my default and can I make it stop doing it?
I am trying to figure out the actual size of files and directories on a CentOS Linux 5 server and when I do a ls -l I see for example at the Directory of /Data 4096 but once in side the directory and I do a ls -l I see larger file sizes. How do I get the actual file size of a Directory to show up?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a 64 bit Ubuntu 9.10 workstation with two virtualized guest OSes using KVM/QEMU. Also both 64-bit. One is Fedora 12 the other is beta of Ubuntu 10.04.
The problem is that I would like to use a larger size display that is configured by default.
Both guest OSes have a maximum screen resolution of 1024x768. I would like to increase this to something like 1280x900 or 1440x900. The resolution of the host system is 1920x1080.
This configuration appears to be a result of the installation detecting the resolution being reported by the virtual screen during installation.
The only information I have found on the subject suggests modifying the xorg.conf file in the /etc/X11 directory. Neither guest system has this file.
I tried creating one by hand in the Fedora system and managed to render it completely unusable. Not a big deal as this is recently installed and can be reinstalled easily.

I tried playing around with gtk-icon-sizes in the gtkrc file of my theme, but there doesn't seem to be a setting for it there. I could just zoom in/out, but when I have the icons the size I want them to be, the text is too small (see attachment).

Is there any option to resize the view like windows client can by percentage?
my notebook screen size is 1280x800, while I use bigger resolution for my pc 1280x1024 if not mistaken.

When viewing videos on [URL], most other websites, and when trying to run certain flash games, the flash applet will not display (though the audio will play). Instead of displaying the flash applet, there will be a grey box where the flash video or applet would normally be.
This problem occurs on Firefox and Chromium, but not on Opera.
My Specs are as follows:
Distro: PCLinuxOS 2010 (32-bit)
flash-player-plugin: 10.1-2pclos2010
firefox: 3.6.6-1pclos2010
swfdec has never been installed (to my knowledge)
I did a lot of investigating about the problem but have turned up no solutions thus far. Here are my results. Flash videos and applets which allow access to the settings menu (like ..... played from their website) do not display, however flash videos and applets which do NOT allow access to the settings menu (including ..... videos embedded in other websites) WILL display. Reinstalling flash-player-plugin and firefox through synaptic does not solve the problem (though note that PCLOS works with rpm files, not deb files. apt4rpm does not support the remove --purge operation, however reinstalls are said to overwrite custom configs with stock ones.) Creating a new firefox profile and/or starting FFox in safe-mode does not solve the problem Creating another user and running FFox from that user will properly display flash videos Comparing default plugins between my main user and new user shows that there is no difference. So this likely rules out a defective extension or plugin binary. Deleting ~/tmp/plugtmp* folders when FFox is closed does not solve the problem. Removing the ~/.macromedia and ~/.adobe folders does not solve the problem. (have checked permissions between the new test user and main user, and they are equivalent) Downloading libflashplayer.so from the Adobe website and copying it to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins has no effect on the problem.
I'm thinking that there might be somewhere else that flash stores configurations for my user, and that maybe the settings there are corrupted and would need to be purged. However frantic googling has turned up nothing useful so far.
What I mean is I'd like to watch stuff in its original size but with the rest of the screen black, the way it is in full screen view (but I don't want it zoomed). RealPlayer calls this option "theatre view". Is there a line I can put into terminal? I tried
Code:
sudo gedit /etc/mplayer/mplayer.conf
and changing commenting in zoom=yes and changing it to zoom=no. Made no difference.

Display on Ubuntu is not great as compared to Windows 7. Are there any device drivers available for Ubuntu?? Or any other tweak to improve the display?
Also the video playback isn't that great. Videos get stuck once in a while and I also cannot play .MKV videos.
I am using VLC Media Player to play videos.
