Jul 5, 2010I am using guayadeque and I need it to notify me about the title and the artist when a new song begins. Also it would be great if it could be controlled without restoring the window. I mean, every time I want to pause the song or skip to the next track, I should restore the minimized window and do whatever I want. Is there a way to control from the task bar or upper panel?

Jan 21, 2011I have a lot of wma files but when I try to play them I get the error "Your GStreamer installation is missing a plugin".So it looks like I have everything I need. Also, I can play wma files in Kplayer and VLC with no problem but Guayadeque has a much better music library and seems to be a better player in general.

Jan 20, 2011I'm new to Linux and I love it so far! I would like a better music player though and I've read great things about Guayadeque. However, when I tried to build it I got the following error:

Ubuntu :: 11.04 From The Live CD All Works Well And Pretty?
May 20, 2011When ever I run Ubuntu 11.04 from the Live CD all works well and pretty. However, when ever I install it, my main monitor won't detect correctly and my second won't even display anything at all. Basically, Live CD runs perfect, Installation does not.
One other note: While running off the Live CD, there was no Unity. Running the actual installation, it is running Unity.. ?
Ubuntu Installation :: Pretty Much Lost Trying To Boot From CD?
Aug 2, 2010As a back story, my Thinkpad had two partitions on it; one with Windows Vista and one with Windows 7. But it can't find the boot files, and thus isn't starting up (I'm getting a remove media or other devices error). So I'm just trying to get it working by trying to download the Ubuntu ISO on another computer, burning it to a disk and then booting it up on my Thinkpad.
I downloaded the 32-bit ISO of Ubuntu. It's ubuntu-10.04-desktop-i386, and it's 699MB, making me think that nothing is inherently wrong with the file I'm trying to burn. So I use InfraRecorder to burn it to an empty CD-R disk with 702MB of free space. (I tried using a DVD-R earlier, but switched over to CD-Rs after the DVD gave me the same problems that the CD-R is now giving me.) So I open up IR, find the ISO file, and burn it to the CD. Everything appears to work normally, and the disk pops out once it is done.
Now the Ubuntu website tells me that I can open up the CD-R file and check its contents, but I can't seem to do that, or at least on my computer. I put the disk back in (while running Vista on the computer I burned it on) and nothing happens, although I don't know if something is supposed to happen. I click on the DVD drive whilst in My Computer, and it pops out again (with the disk still in it) and tells me to insert a disk... whatever I think.
So maybe it's just not meant to work when already in Windows, but I put it into my Lenovo, boot from the CD/RW and am getting the same error. The specific error isn't really relevant, but rather the fact that it isn't even booting into Ubuntu. Clarifications: The integrity of the ISO file or the distribution are not the cause. I downloaded Linux Mint and encountered the same problem.
The computer burning the disk is not the problem. I used InfraRecorder and other burning software on two different computers, and both got to 100% and ejected the disk. The problem is that the disk is full, but not doing anything on either of the two computers I'm using to burn, and isn't booting up on my Thinkpad.
Ubuntu :: Studio Desktop Is Pretty Cool?
Sep 1, 2011Some of you might have seen my thread about Gnome 3. My desktop and windows were a mess after Gnome 3, and I couldn't restore it back to Gnome 2 for some reason. I decided to check out Ubuntu Studio because I am a guitar player. I want to be able to record, but the desktop in ubuntu studio is stunning. It isn't graphically stunning, like ubuntu running Gnome 2 or 3, but it is simple. Everything is easy to get to and no nonsense. It is a joy to use.
If they improve the looks of the desktop and menus, I would be EXTREMELY happy. The look isn't that impressive, but the ease of use is great. One thing I noticed is that the average CPU usage went down when I switched to ubuntu studio. In regular ubuntu, my CPU would be using 15%-20% of its power when I wasn't running anything. In ubuntu studio, it is between 8%-13%.
I am pretty pleased with Ubuntu Studio. I am glad I made the switch. I just would like it to be a little more visually impressive.

Ubuntu Installation :: Make Desktop Pretty And Mic Work?
Apr 13, 2011I'm fairly new to using Linux. I just had a simple opinion based, question and one direct question: 1) What are some package options I can use to make my desktop environment prettier? I have Compiz Fusion installed, I use the cube and and Expo. I'd like to have background options for the expo and I'd like some better, Sci-FI-ish Themes under System>Preferences>Appearence. 2) As for what I need to know directly, I have a built in Microphone on my Laptop (Compaq 8510w) and I'm fairly sure I haven't installed a package or driver option to allow it to work for Skype ect... What might that/those package(s) be?
View 3 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Accidentally Removed Some Pretty Essential Stuff Via Synaptic?
Jul 30, 2011I recently had to install Python 2.7 to run some specific cripts and so tried to uninstall Python 2.6 so that I didn't have to worry about path conflicts. It seems that when uninstalling the Python package it's stripped most of the apps from my installation, including fairly essential stuff like the terminal. It also seemed to stop accepting my password as a root user, though I'm hoping a reboot may fix that.
Can anyone provide a listing of the default packages that Ubuntu ships with please so I can try to repair my system? I tried looking through ones I might know but it appears for example that while Bash is installed I have no Terminal entry under Applications.
Fedora :: KDE4 The 'run Command' Dialog Box (ALT-F2) Crashes Pretty Often?
Aug 14, 2010Running Fedora 13 with KDE4 the 'run command' dialog box (ALT-F2) crashes pretty often. Sometimes it just hangs for several seconds. I'm running a pretty standard from DVD setup here with only the NetworkManager and knetworkmanager updated from the Updates repository. It's company policy that we try to stick to the DVD as much as possible without any updates, it helps us to keep our laptops in a well-defined state and avoid conversations like "why is package abc on laptop a version 1.512.5501a5 but 1.512.5502b1 on laptop b?".The question is simple:Does anyone know what KDE package that run command dialog box is part of? I'd like to update only that one particular package to get this problem solved, updating the entire system is not an option.
View 1 Replies View RelatedSoftware :: Making Pretty Print From Various Text Files
Jul 5, 2011I have various text files -- some "source code", some "data files" -- that I'm formatting with enscript. Can someone answer some questions about use and workings of enscript?
1. How does enscript know which printer to use as a default? My command lines do not specify a printer but output makes its way to the system default printer. Neither PRINTER nor LPDEST are set in the environment. So what is enscript using to learn the default?
2. How do I get --landscape to work as an enscript option? Whatever enscript sends to the printer accomplished the N-up and other formatting, but the content appears portrait instead of landscape?
3. Running Ubuntu Lucid desktop, I also use CUPS and HPLIP for printing. Need to understand the interactions among the desktop CUPS and bash shell command line access to printing? I tried viewing the environment looking for printer and similar variables. 'set' showed a group of shell functions instead of environment variables. I'm confused.
Follow-up: The functions were all ImageMagick details. (blush) The variables went by so fast I missed them. Even so, I still don't find anything to tell 'enscript' which printer is default.

View 1 Replies View RelatedSoftware :: Logitech 9000 Webcam - Pretty Useless Without Apps Work?
Feb 21, 2010So I have a Logitech 9000 web cam installed and working (again) with Skype. That's great when I want to video chat with family, but that's all I can do with it. I would like to record some movies using my web cam but I can't because of the following reasons:
1. I can't find an application for Linux that actually works. So far they all fail to work for a variety of reasons.
2. The ones that sort of work, don't allow me to do what I want, record a video with my web-cam and save the file for future use or distribution.
I just want a simple application that allows me to click on record, stop recording and save. Why isn't there anything around that can do that? Seriously, this is something I have been looking for since, 2001. And so far I have only found one application that kind of worked, but it's no longer developed and I can't find it anymore.
[Code]...
So let's recap. In another thread I am trying to get .wmv files to play (they work on one system but not another?) and none of the applications for web cams work as I want. Oh, and wine? It's a joke, not one application I have tried to run with wine works. The either just don's start OR they start but half the components never paint and it runs like a flea in frozen molasses.
I am a bit frustrated and rather tired of not being able to easily do what Windows folk can do with relative ease. Something wrong with that. And I haven't even begun to tack text to speech yet.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Black Screen During Booting Up?
Mar 30, 2010I've installed Ubuntu 9.10 in my old desktop, i.e. Compaq Evo D510 e-pc:
Intel Pentium 4 1.7Ghz
1GB 400Mhz RAM
80GB HDD
Intel 845G chipset board
Onboard 4X AGP Intel Video chipset
Onboard audio
The above is my setup and Ubuntu runs perfectly fine when it is being cold booted, i.e. I shut it down during the night and boot it in the morning, it boots perfectly fine. But while using, it suddenly freezes and I'm only able to move my mouse pointer and nothing else works on the screen. I tried doing the Ctrl+Alt+(F1/F2/...) but nothing works.
So when I restart it using the power switch, it goes into the black screen and nothing loads up. I'm stuck over here. And if I turn it off for around 30mins by removing the power plug, and then reboot it again, Ubuntu loads without any problem and runs for sometime, then again the same freezing problem happens and I have to wait for another 30mins to boot it up again.
I have a 28" monitor connected to it and it runs at 1920 x 1200 (16:10) resolution at 60Hz.
Ubuntu Multimedia :: Display Would Sometimes Go Black For A Few Seconds
Oct 7, 2010I installed Ubuntu on a Toshiba Satellite about a month ago. It worked for about three hours. I installed Wine, and it still worked but the display would sometimes go black for a few seconds. Later that day I rebooted and that was it, no more Ubuntu. It goes through all of the process of booting but then the screen just goes black before I even get to the purple Ubuntu screen. I'm running this on a drive in an enclosure so I simply plugged the drive into another machine ( actually two other machines ), and it works perfectly. I have an old Vista drive that I put in the Toshiba and that works just fine, so it's not a pure hardware issue. Just to be sure I wiped the Ubuntu drive and re-installed, this time without installing wine. No Toshiba love. Just the black screen. I even made a flash drive with the loader and iso from the Ubuntu site. Same deal. It starts to boot from the flash and then just goes black where you would normally expect the purple Ubuntu screen. This thing is driving me nuts and I am at a point where I really need this machine working and will be faced with simply wiping the Ubuntu drive and installing Windows.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: View Video On Web - Just Black Screen

Ubuntu Multimedia :: GMA 4500: Screen Goes Black Randomly?
Dec 4, 2010I'm really new to Linux (meaning that I never programmed or anything) but have a major issue here: I have been using Ubuntu since 9.04 (always upgrading) and always with this Laptop, without problems. Then I installed 10.10, didn't like it and downgraded to 10.04. Thats when the issue came up. So now I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 and have an Intel GMA 4500 graphic card. That, though, is all I know about the graphics on my Laptop.
The problem:Every now and then (mostly right after logging in, then randomly) my monitor will flicker quickly and then go black completely.
After I close the laptop and open it up again, the screen works fine for some seconds, then, without moving anything, it goes black again. Sometimes it just stays normal, too. Just changing the angle of the monitor doesn't help, only closing it completely and opening it.
1) It could be the cable loop.BUT: The issue only appears after logging on to Linux. And moving the monitor doesnt help, just closing it completely.
2) Graphic driver.I have no idea how the software part of Linux works considering graphics. I have read that many people have had problems with GMA 4500, so my hope is that it can be fixed.
