....right its installed on my pc but im also goin to install kismet(ubuntu9.10) on my laptop. will it be the same?
trying to get everything set up in Debian lenny on my new Toshiba staellite L500. I have successfully installed the wireless drivers and graphics card and have them both up and running. But I'm having trouble with the sound card. Specifically, it appears to be installed but I cant get any sound or any devices related to sound (speakers, volume control, alsamixer) to work at all.
I'm trying to get my XMMS Player to work. I've been reading the linux bible and it has a whole section just on xmms player management. when I typed in xmms in the terminal i get :
So i went to synaptic package manager and installed xmms but all I found was xmms2 I guess its the newer version. I ended up installing it, but now when I type in xmms2 in the terminal (because if i type in xmms i get the same output as above), it brings me to a bunch of cli commands used for using xmms in the terminal. How do I get the "winamp" type GUI interface with xmms2, I tried looking for it in my applications menu (even under sound and video) and its nowhere to be found. I just wanna enjoy the player with its normal graphical tool not through the command prompt (which seems like the only choice right now).
I tried installing xmms through the terminal like this:
And get this:
And as I said before there's no xmms installer in synaptic only xmms2 (which I installed and got the CLI not the GUI version). I'm using Ubuntu Karmic Koala.
sound card is working well inside SuSE and everything is ok there. But when I install Windows 7 or XP inside Xen Virtualization software, I can't use sound card and Windows is unable to find any sound hardware.
I have installed vlc 1.0.5 manually, because of some reasons I have to uninstall it. I tried deleting the folders naming vlc and binary file but some how it not getting removed completely.how to uninstall it. I am using ubuntu 9.10.
I have a pretty straight forward (I thought) request for a music player and I'm hitting problems EVERYWHERE So what I need:
1. Plays music on my computer 2. Can transfer music & playlists to my Creative Zen 3. Can burn cd's within the player (and make auto convert to .wav's so I can play in my vehicle).
I'd like to have lyrics and a wiki page (like songbird and amarok do) but I'll sacrifice them for the other features....which all seem so basic
I am trying to compile an android project, which requires GCC-4.3(mandatory, GCC-4.4 doesn't work). So I downgraded the gcc-4.4 on my ubuntu 10.04 to gcc-4.3.
But then the compiling process doesn't work. It says: cc: command not found make: *** [...] error 127
It's weird that the shell can't find 'cc' while I do have gcc-4.3 installed. I've tried type the following command: export CC="/usr/bin/gcc-4.3" but I don't know what's it for.
Fedora 14 xfceI have installed a package using yum install package-name.However, I can't seen to find out where it has been installed to.Is there any command that will tell me what directory the files have been installed to?
I've just installed fedora 15 to try out Gnome 3and came to know the sound is not working . I've tried changing the setting from "Sound Setting" but didn't work. lsmod gave this
So this indicate that the driver is installed ,but i can hardly hear anything . I even tried installing "pavucontrol" but its of no use. As a last try ive tried installing sound drivers from Reltek website but ive got error while configuring.
In other words, I somehow deleted the first partition of Windows7, the windows reserved system partition. WHat is the quickest way I can rescue this system? Client has been waiting for her machine a long time already, I have to delived today, no time to re-install windows7.
I'm using Core 2 Duo. So, from Intel website I found that it is 64-bit architecture CPU.
Long back I've installed Ubuntu OS on this machine. But I'm not sure if I installed x86-32 or x86-64 version of Linux. I want to know which version of Linux I'm using. How to know that?
I'm installing LoL using Wine and I can't find where setup has put the files. When I type "wine lol.launcher" it says "wine: cannot find L"c:\windows\system32\lol.launcher". For that matter I can't find where the setup program has installed any of the LoL components
Is there a way to find out with what options a library was configured with when it was installed? I am trying to install a library on my system that depends on gasnet and it requires me to configure it with the very same options that gasnet was configured with. Gasnet was not originally installed by me, so I cannot tell. I can see bin/, include/, lib/ and share/ directories in the gasnet folder and no other information in it. To be specific, I need to use the same CFLAGS that were used during installation of gasnet. For example, if it was installed using '-g -O2', I have to make sure I use the same CFLAGS here.
I loaded a distro (which does not seem relevant) onto my laptop and used it for a while. Applications did whatever they do creating and saving files. I know that I have images and documents and videos and music and such on the laptop among other non-distro data files. Is there a simple (straightforward) way to identify which files on disk are NOT part of the installed distro? I know how to use find. I know that find lets me locate files based on some date-time-stamp. I know, too, that I can use any selected file as a benchmark date-time instead of some specific command line string.
For example: Code: Find files whose modification date is before (or after) the date(s) associated with the file /path/foo.bar. Is there any one file that I could use to peg the distro install date? Can I get that date from somewhere else like a file system details?

For every program I've installed, I can see an icon in the applications menu. But, I'd like to be able to find the actual icon so I can use it on panels and such in gnome.
Is there a standard place where icons from the applications menu are found?
