Used to be under System > Preferences... now I can't find it. And no google entries about it (most are from 2007) and I find it amazing there's no entry on it on the forum either! -> http://ubuntuforums.org/search.php?searchid=77800610
...as anyone ripping a CD will notice that rhythmbox autoplays it
I want to listen to this audio file: [URL] but my real player 11.0.0.4028 gold desn play it, it says that there is a codec 28_8 missing, I go to relaplayer page, download the last release available for linux systems, but the message is the same : audio codec missing and doesn't play the audio.
I havev tried to play the audio with smplayer (not luck), vlc can play the audio but the pause button doesn't work so I have to listen the entire audio all the time I stop it playing. Is there any audio player capable od reproducing in the proper way this audio in ubuntu? No one of my video players totem, smplayer, realplayer or vlc are capable of playing this video: [URL]
I'm thinking of installing openSUSE-11.1 Gnome on a Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo 7400M laptop because the wireless in Gnome is much more user friendly than KDE3/KDE4 in openSUSE-11.1. The idea is to give this laptop to my 84-year old mother and things need to 'just work' for her (she currently has a desktop running openSUSE-11.1 KDE3 that uses a WIRED interface to the web).
I refuse to update this laptop to openSUSE-11.2 nor 11.3 (nor other recent distributions) because every kernel update after the 2.6.27 kernel has broken the Intel i855GM graphics drivers for that laptop. There are many bug reports and none have fixed the problem for this Fujitsu-Siemens implementation of the i855GM graphics.
Hence I am looking at Gnome.
I booted the laptop to a Gnome openSUSE-11.1 liveCD and wireless is easy and works great. But audio is very very VERY bad. It is incredibly user unfriendly and it does NOT work well. I assume that is because pulse audio in openSUSE-11.1 was very immature.
I note these updated packages in the openSUSE-11.1 update repository:
Code:
So my question is, did the updates to pulse audio (in the openSUSE-11.1 update repository) fix the pulse audio situation? Are there ANY helpful views on this?
Currently my wife is using this laptop with KDE-4.4.4 (and openSUSE-11.1) so I can't just install Gnome and play with it without taking the laptop away from her for a while (note the hard drive is too small for a dual boot of KDE/Gnome).

okay, here are the details: can't play any audio with amarok when desktop effects are enabled because the minute a window is moved, it will distort the audio. even when disabling desktop effects, some applications still cause this. can't play videos videos even with desktop effects disabled because of the same reason.
i just switched from ubuntu and when i ran version 11.04, i had to disable kms to do anything. i tried on opensuse 11.4 and the audio was flawless but the gfx went all to hell.
I am having some issues with getting Ubuntu Studio 10.04 to work correctly on my system. Everything works fine except sound. I have a M-Audio Delta 66 audio interface and my onboard sound is disabled. When I run the command alsaconf I can see the ICE1712 card without issue. However when I run alsamixer the only option it is giving me is my HD sound from my ATI video card. For some reason it seems the ATI card has locked the audio to it with no way to remove it. I have reinstalled the alsa drivers for my card and can only see it through alsaconf. When I tell alsaconf to configure the ICE1712 card it says it configured it properly.When I run the command envy24control it says no ICE1712 cards were found.
Is there an application that anyone knows about that I can use to convert either an .flv or .ogg file that contains both audio and video to just an audio .ogg file (preferably vorbis+theora) without audacity? I'm fairly certain audacity could accomplish this but it seems like overkill for what I'm trying to do and the computer I'm trying to use does not run it so well.
::EDIT:: I should also mention that I've tried looking on google. I did find downloadhelper extension for firefox which uses ffmpeg to convert the files but I don't see any obvious way to strip the video.
i have an hp pavilion dv7 and am using f13 64bit. my laptop has a built in woofer underneath that i have never been able to get to work. after the latest kernel update today my laptop now has woofer sound. there must be some new support for my laptops audio card. the problem is that it is a little overbearing. how can i a) disable this feature b) tweak the parameters like crossover frequency or gain? edit: i checked the changelog for 2.6.34 and couldn't find any info on any new audio support features.
I"m running an online radio station and would like to run my headphone audio into my microphone or a virtual microphone, either way, I would like my audience to hear what I hear without having to hold the Mic to the speakers.
i have a virus in my mp3 that i don't know how to get rid of. the virus is called 'autorun.inf'. even though it doesn't affect Linux (i think) when i mount the mp3, the icon appears as if it was an empty folder. it use to let me delete/copy files into the mp3 but now it doesn't anymore. i cant delete the autorun.inf file or any file!
Ive had this problem before on the same mp3 and what i did was format the mp3 in windows but the thing keeps coming again and again . ive seen a couple 'windows solutions' for this but i dont have windows anymore so...
When I plug in my iPhone to my computer, VLC starts and begins to auto run the videos from my phone.How do I go about stopping this?How do I get Ubuntu to just open up the file system on the phone?
Ubuntu insists on using movie player as the default for audio files. I would like to use VLC. VLC doesn't show up on the list as preferred applications for multimedia. I tried using custom with vlc %u but it doesn't work.
using ubuntu 9.10 and wine 1.0.1 was able to install Delorme street atlas 2008 plus sucessfully but when I run autorun.exe the app. doesn't start only the first screen that says "creating controls connecting to components and then nothing happens.
I wish to enable battery tab in Acer 751, Lucid. The command I type in terminal every time I start the netbook is: Quote: cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/info How do I make it run automatically on start up?
I need to run a shell to enable pseudo-multitouch on my touchpad using a shell which automatically configs synclient.I put this file under /home/<username>/, and also put this to the Session manager under system menu. But it doesn't work. I've already used chmod command to make sure that the file is executable.
Had a problem getting my internet connection working with Ubuntu, but I resolved that issue. Problem is I still have to manually run dhclient every time Ubuntu boots, because I have no network unless I do. Is there a script or something that can do this automatically?
I have an external WD hard drive on which I have created several partitions to facilitate data arrangement. Whenever I plug it in, all partitions are mounted. That is okay. I want it to automount all partitions. But the annoying thing is all partitions opening and popping up and cluttering my desktop (which I, very dearly, keep very arranged and clean...)
I hate it and want to edit the settings so the folders will not automatically open and pop up into my face..
I have just installed ubuntu 10.10 with wubi on a computer with windows vista.I have wireless access with ndiswrapper (), but i have one problem the autorun prompt doesn't work with anything.I have reinstalled wubi twice, and the same problem occurs.
I have an embedded PC104 application where I am trying to get my program to start automatically at power up. The program contains a graphical user interface, using an old SVGALIB (no longer supported). It works fine if I start it after log in.But when I put the path in rc.local, it will only run if I disable all the graphical stuff. The program bunts if it looks ahead and sees the call to vga_setmode(), where I set it for 480 x 640 resolution.

I am using fedora 3 for samba server, autorun.inf appear on folder. When I delete it and it comes back again. How can i get the rid of it? Which antivirus can delete it?
I've looked at many tutorials on the internet but none helped me much.I've already tried to edit fstab so it would have something like /dev/cdrom/media/cdrom0udf,iso9660user,auto00.But the thing is this only takes effect when the OS loads, and the CD has to be inserted at that time, so it's not something permanent or viable. What I'm looking for it's something to auto-mount the cd in the fluxbox GUI when it's inserted just like in Gnome or Kde.
With what functions i can write my program in /etc/init.d with c++ to start every time the computer starts ? (like in windows with RegOpenKey,RegSetValueEx..............) ?
