I have this wma file that I want to play and I looked around and found alot of ways to make this happen. However, none has work for me. But first let me explain my problem. I have these wma files that just wont work but they worked once before. Now when I try to open the files all I get is some message that the file can not be opened. I have done many efforts to make it work including things like medibuntu. BTW, there was this once moment that when I tried to open the file it PLAYED! but then after it did not open.
-The Mkv video file cannot be opened by the Mplayer due to something that I don't know. I try to open it via the gnome-terminal and end up with something like this:
The, I try to play it with VLC media player. Everthing seems fine but after few minutes, I can see the lagging of the video and distractions on the screen.
Then, I've open my Windows 7 and play the mkv files with the KMplayer, everything is fine. No lagging, no distractions.
I've already updated the ubuntu-restricted-extras. I've already installed the libxine1-ffmpeg and nothings good appeared.
I've already installed the mkvtoolnix-gui (which is i don't know what is it) but similar prob appear.
how did play mkv files? With no lags or disctractions?
I'm not 100% sure if this is the right spot for it, but I'm having trouble unzipping files. I've downloaded a good few fonts from dafont.com, from different authors and with different browsers and I still get errors. First I opened the .zip with Archive Manager
Code: 7-Zip 9.04 beta Copyright (c) 1999-2009 Igor Pavlov 2009-05-30 p7zip Version 9.04 (locale=en_ZA.utf8,Utf16=on,HugeFiles=on,2 CPUs) Error: /media/42E6F8E2366C0906/Fonts/panhead.zip: Can not open file as archive Errors: 1
I then tried Code: ross@Ross-PC:~$ unzip /media/42E6F8E2366C0906/Fonts/panhead.zip and got this output Code: Archive: /media/42E6F8E2366C0906/Fonts/panhead.zip End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive.

I do have p7zip-full installed, but it isn't a .7zip file?

When I am opening the synaptic manager its showing the following error: E: Encountered a section with no Package: header E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_natty_main_binary-i386_Packages E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened. E: _cache->open() failed, please report. So How can I open it?
I keep getting this messageCould not initialize the package informationAn unresolvable problem occurred while initializing the package information.Please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the following error message:'E:Encountered a section with no Package: header, Eroblem with MergeList var/lib/apt/lists/us.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_natty_main_bina ry-i386_Packages, E:The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.'
I am using GEDIT and I would like to have a shortcut key that allows me to tell GEDIT (on Ubuntu) to force reloading from file system the currently opened file.
Looks like my package manager was severely screwed. Any package manager-related command I try to run results in the following message in the console:
Code:
E: Read error - read (5: Input/output error) E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened. Anything - aptitude, apt-get.
I removed all my sources.lists, I tried running apt-cache clean It didn't help. This is really serious. Not only am I unable to do anything with packages (update, remove, install), but the machine is really slow because of this.
Whenever I edit a spreadsheet in Gnumeric, I have to have an argument about saving the edited version. First, it says it wants to save it in Gnumeric's XML format instead of whatever format I opened it in, and then I get a dialog warning me the file already exists,is it OK to overwrite it? All my spreadsheets are either .odt or .csv. I just want to be able to open, edit and save without an argument every time. It's like telling a child that it's bed time and having the same argument every night, and it's getting on my nerves.Is there a setting where I can get gnumeric to obediently save the edited version, or do I just have to put up with the slower opening times of LibreOffice instead?

the location bar at the top disappears every time I close and then re-open it, and I have to hit View/Location Bar to get it back. Is there a way to permanently keep it there?
I have a server installed with a Fedora 8 and the other client PC were installed with Windows XP. Recently, I copied an educational courseware (this courseware is developed specially for Windows based PC) into the Linux-based server. I found that the .EXE (application file) :were unable to be opened in all of the clients and also the server. How can I solve this problem?
Is there any limitation on the number of file descriptors that can be opened. If yes how to find the maximum number of file descriptors that can be opened at a time.
My program need to monitor the foler to know which file under the folder is being opened/created for writing. I add the folder into watch list using inotify_add_watch, when a file -- say 'AA' -- is created, I'll get the event through read api call. But the inotify_event only have file name 'AA' and a event mask. these parameters can't help me to know how the 'AA' is created/openned. So I have to scan the /proc folder to get to know how is 'AA' created/openned. I don't think this is a efficient way, especially if there are lots of files are openned/created in a short time span.
does it effective using ClamAV as Privoxy antivirus? I have actually configure it but it does not seem to come into any effect.Why?I test it with Eicar(test virus) online and it does not even prompt there is a problem unless i have scanned.Beside that,i have installed ClamAV daemon along with it. [URL]
[Code]....
Issue :How come the Clam Antivirus does not prompt there is a virus when i opened the file or problem link?Does it work difference as Window OS antivirus which prompt when there is a virus detected?
I realise KPDF is quite old now but as this issue may recur when I move to a newer distro (well, newer than Hardy) with Okular I thought I'd better ask.I use Gnome, but prefer KPDF to evince when viewing PDF files. However, KPDF's "Open Recent" list behaves very oddly - there's no apparent way to clear it, and items which were on the list one day aren't on it another day (coinciding with old items reappearing on the list).
Is there any way to clear this list?Similarly, is there any way to clear the list of recently opened files in the "Location" drop-down box in File-Open? (which also seems to mysteriously lose list items inbetween reboots).

it's the installation media or the ISO is broken because i have reburned / redownloaded the fedora14 multiple times with the same result. I even tried burning the disc on a different computer just to make sure the burner is still working. This is the error i am getting when the "Starting installation Process" dialog displayed.
"The file upstart-sysvint.0.65.9.fc14.i686.rpm cannot be opened. This is due to a missing file, a corrupt package or corrupt media. Please verify your installation source" I remember fedora 13 and below i have to use nousb command or something similar to get fedora installed properly but not for fedora 14. It just pops up with the message above.
This happened completely randomly. One day, my synaptic and update manager is working fine and the next day, I open one of them and get a error window that doesn't say anything (no details on the error). So, i tried the terminal, sudo apt-get update, and this message shows:

I was looking for a plugin to open pdf files in a new tab, acroread does but doesent remember the last view of the last file opened. So, is there a way to open pdf files through evince or okular within FF?
When trying to play a MP3 file without extension, mplayer shows this message:
Quote:
$ mplayer file MPlayer SVN-r29237-4.4.1 (C) 2000-2009 MPlayer Team mplayer: could not connect to socket mplayer: No such file or directory
[code]....
It does not happen with all the files I've tested, but only some of them, is there an option to indicate mplayer that the file is actually in mp3 format?
I have Ubuntu 11.0 installed.It is giving following error during update:
