I got a phenom II x4 3.2ghz
gigabyte gtx 460 1gb
and 2 gigs of ddr3 ram
Having VLC crash upon opening? I would think that they would have it fixed by now & just trying to follow up. I tried to do a bug report but couldn't get it to go for whatever reason (at least I don't THINK it took).
I just switched over to Ubuntu from vista because it was giving me to many problems and I'm setting things up. My question is how can I bind Quamachi's ip to Starcraft like in windows but since forcebindip wont work I am wondering if any of you know what I can do to get it so I can play lan udp games over quamachi? I have quamachi installed and ready to go... I can see the networks, so once I can get starcraft set up I should be ready to go. I just need to bind the ip somehow.
I'm trying to slowly wean away from windows (too many BSODs) and convert to Linux. only one problem. I'm a hardcore gamer. i went on google and looked up how to run windows games in ubuntu. all i could really find was "use winetools". i know that winetools emulates windows, but it's really complicated to figure out how to use it. can someone tell me how to use winetools to play starcraft 2? or what packages i may need to download? (Sorry if this is kind of a vague post, but i really don't know how to use winetools at all.)
I just installed starcraft 2 using playonlinux and wine. I was able to launch it once it finished the updates. I proceeded to amp up the graphics to ultra on everything. I did that then it crashed. i now can not seem to open it. Not through wine or on the desktop.
I have wine installed. And i also have Starcraft. however it is the No Install type. It opens fine with wine. However the mouse is really laggy in the menu and in gameplay. The screen tears during gameplay as well. Does anyone know how to fix these issues. I have wine installed on a different computer, running linux mint distro. And the starcraft works fine on there. So i dont understand why it would work find on mint and not on ubuntu.
setup amd64bit created a live DVD of the 11.4 64 bit burn pope inside went to install put selected the second option because putting it on a 60G vertex ocz super fast drive. used the entire drive for ubuntu. have mirror dual monitor installed the proprietary drivers from amd.go to Ubuntu software center type additional drives install and install the proprietary drivers from ati you should be able to figure that out then lauch the ati catalyst control and setup your 1 and 2 monitors so that they are correct.
ok now install Wine ubuntu software thingy tip wine don't do the beta right now im stuck on installing starcraft and mounting the other hard drives will get back to you and make a better guide on this.oh by the way if your Internet isn't connecting automatically you might need to set your IPV4 setting manually this is because you have set your router with DHCP disabled. Code needed for install:
nautilus $HOME
PLAY ON LINUX is working for SC2 Sois crashes though and during install sont font was missing neede to guesse correct button to install.
More useful code
To mount the drive ro (read only):Make a mount point.mount First open a terminal.Then type these commands (assuming the partition is /dev/hdb1):
Code:
sudo mkdir /mnt/music sudo mount /dev/hdb1 /mnt/music -t ntfs
Note: if the partition is not /dev/hdb1 you will need to adjuxt accordingly.To make the mount automatic at boot you need to edit fstab:
Code:
sudo gedit /etc/fstab
Add this line:
Quote:
/dev/hdb1 /mnt/music ntfs auto,users,ro 0 0
Again, adjust your partition accordingly if needed. Copy and paste the contents of /etc/fstab (in your next post) and type in a terminal "sudo fdisk -l" (w/o quotes) and copy and paste the output.
I'm trying to run Starcraft 2 from the installation folder I kept from my previous windows install, and when I double-click the .exe I get an error that says it doesn't have permission to run as an executable. So I checked out the properties page, permissions tab, and for some ungodly reason none of the changes I make stick. The second I click the check box for "Run as an exectuable" it unchecks. I have no idea what to do and I've scoured the net looking for an answer. I'd prefer to avoid redownloading it (didn't buy the retail version) but it's looking like my only option at this point.
This error message comes out saying, " No application suitable for automatic installation is available for handling this kind of file." I am trying to install a wireless antenna for my other computer. Does anyone know what I should do?
im currently using ubuntu 9.10 in 30gb partition, when i open google chrome, netbeans, pidgin messenger and mysql it causes pc o freeze, which i has to shut down pc by cutting off electricity.
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.
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?
I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 and I installed Compiz Fusion but now the only thing I can open that has a title bar that I can move around is Google Chrome, everything else I open, even firefox, has no title bar and I cant move the boxes around the screen.
all my compressed files have gedit icons, and when I right-click them, instead of having the "unzip here" option, it just says "open with gedit". Why would this be the case??? How do I fix it? it's really inconvenient to have to open up my terminal and unzip everything that I want uncompressed, when I used to be able to just right click it and say "extract here".

I just installed TOR but get an error that it has ended unexpectedly when I open Vidalia. The log has the following:

Sometimes i have webpages opened that i can't close and the upgrade popup appears. This time firefox is one of the software to upgrade, should i close the browser or it isn't mandatory ?
This is a new issue since 10.04 (9.10 did it right). I'm on 10.10 netbook right now. What I would like to figure out is how to tell the system to go into suspend when idle even though the lid is open. I don't know if this problem is hardware specific or just a config file edit. Just to get it out of the way, it does suspend correctly when the lid is closed - and I can tell it to suspend when the lid is open, but what I need is for it to suspend when I fall asleep working or forget I left it open without overheating / running out of battery and losing my work. I'm pretty good at doing things on linux, despite the fact that I'm running the netbook remix, so don't be afraid to tell me to open a file in the terminal or whatever.
I am using pine as email client for a while, and I noticed that if I got a new email, all terminal opened will show a notification if you type any command.
I just wondering is there any tool/command I can customize my own notification like this and work combine with crontab?
I search google for a little bit, no useful clue so far?

When I play any video in VLC or any other player my video is on top of everything.
For example, if I open a video and play it - everything looks ok. But, if I open another window "above" VLC, video suddenly appears at top and I can't see window opened in front of VLC.
-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?
It was just yesterday when I was using the Ubuntu Software Center, and it worked great. Today, when I open it, it closes right down within a second. If it helps, I'm using Ubuntu 10.04. I restarted Ubuntu, the problem still happens, anyone know what could be causing this?
When I open Chrome I receive the error: Quote:Your profile could not be opened correctly.I have found solutions that work, but they delete all my profile information. This is will not work for me because I want to keep the profile data. I narrowed it down and the problem with with the Web Data file which is a SQLite database. From my research it sounds like the Web Data file gets locked. How can I unlock this file? The command below is suppose to unlock the DB, but I have not had any success with it.
Code: IFS=" " for I in `file ~/.config/chromium/Default/*|grep SQL|cut -f1 -d:`; do echo '.dump' | sqlite3 $I > ${I}.sql && rm $I && sqlite3 $I < ${I}.sql && rm ${I}.sql ; done
Yesterday I updated some packages with the Update manager. A new version of evince was updated, too. However, no pdf, ps files can be opened by it after that.Running from the command line, get error like:"evince: symbol lookup error: evince: undefined symbol: ev_get_locale_dir"I just wonder how to solve this. Or how to rollback to older version?
when I try to open a directory via the Places menu in gnome desktop (Places->home|music|...) the default music player which comes with Ubuntu is opened (I don't know why), but not the directory.Do you know, guys, why does this happen and/or how can I solve it? I'm using Ubuntu 10.10.
