Last question how I install an application in ubuntu which is in (.bz2) format
How do I set up a WIN format to play games(e.g., MVP Bridge)?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have ripped quite a few movies onto my server and I play them on my PS3 with mediatomb. I haven't changed any of the settings in handbrake except I was playing around with the quality meter on the video tab. Some of my movies will play and others won't. The ones that do not play say something about an unsupported file type. They also will not play in Movie Player.

Does anyone know of an application that can be started from the CLI w/o GUI that will play videos?

I can play a CD which has music files as .CDA files, if I put it in the internally mounted CD/DVD player. I can see the contents of the CD with Dolphin (or Konquror) and play it using Kaffeine. However, as soon as put the same CD in an external DVD/CD player, I cannot see it with Dolphin (or Konqueror). Nor can I play it Kaffeine (although, strangely, I can play it with VLC player). My system just cannot mount that CD, it remains invisible to the system (excepting for the VLC player or the K3b). For CD with mp3 files or DATA files there is no problem at all.
How can I play and see CDROM with files in CDA format through an external USB DVD/CD player in the same way as I can see it when put in the internal DVD/CD player?
I like this linux distribution more than the others that i have used, because is more stable for my work. But there are some little problems that I can't solve. I'm using it with a laptop HP G60 and i can run OpenOffice, Mozilla and some other programs (python, grass, qgis) that used for work at the office, but when I go home and want to watch a movie with my girl, listen some music or any other simple task, i find a lot of little problems:
1. Adjust the bright of the screen, the Power Management Guidance don't do it and I really need it.
2. Can't play movies in VLC "No suitable decoder module. VLC does not support the audio or video format XVID. Unfortunately there is no way for you to fix this"
3. And today I can't play music because there is a message "KDE detected that one or more internal sound devices were removed" this is: Output HDA Intel, INTEL HDMI 0 (HDMI Audio Output)
I know maybe these problems are stupid but in windows is easier to fix them. I'm tired of search in google because i just find solved problems for Ubuntu and it takes a lot of time.
I have all multimedia packages installed as the instructions of opensuse site (ffmpeg, libdvdcss, ...) and plus some others not mentioned there (gstreamer, libav ...).Recently I was watching a dvd in kaffeine but several times the video and audio had small stops of about one or half second. It even came to the point of skipping a bit of the video. I tried vlc and the same thing happenned up to a point where the video froze at all. Also in other dvd's, when I tried to watch the content of a menu option vlc skipped the first few second of that scene before playing it. I tried smplayer and the exhibition of video was perfect except by the fact that it don't recognize dvd menus and subtitles. All mplayer gui's don't recognize them.So what player available for opensuse is able to recognize menus, subtitles and at the same time play dvd movies without other problems?

View 10 Replies View RelatedRecently I removed Windows XP pro using Kill Disk and a 000 overwrite on the drive. After that I used GParted format the drive and create a new ext 3 partition then I installed Ubuntu 10.10 from a live CD.
This system has only 10.10 installed. There are no other OS's present. Installing of 10.10 went well and all the the files are now on the drive. However, now the system will not reboot from the drive. When attempting to boot I get a an error message which advise that the medium is not bootable. I am then forced to use the live CD to boot from the CD.
I'm not sure if formatting a drive creates a new mbr or not. If not then I would have to create one and I don't know how to do that. I've read a number of forum posts on how to use GRUB to repair the mbr - however I haven't found any that specifically deal with replacing a missing mbr.
I suspect that when I used Kill Disk it trashed the MBR. I could really use some help figuring out the nature of the problem and how to fix it. I'm fairly new to Ubuntu so please be as exact as possible if you reply.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI cannot format and install XP/Centos 5.3. I have a portable equipment with Linux (Centos 5), I am trying to format it everything to put Win xp and Centos 5.3; the detail is that when reinitiating the PC, the CD installer of xp start correctly with "Presses any key to initiate from CD" soon itself with "the install program it is inspecting the configuration of hardware of his equipment" until there all good.
BUT: Then it remains in black the screen and it does not do nothing else so as in some forums they suggest: I waited for almost 1 hour, I proved with several cds xp and these also I proved them in other readers giving ok, reviewed the bios, etc. and nothing, the peculiar thing is that if I place the CD install of Centos this one if it works and it installs in the portable one.
I currently have Ubuntu installed on my laptop.I have it set up the way I like it. However, I want Windows on here too...the thing is, I dont want to have to format if possible, I know that you need to install windows before Ubuntu. I have ubuntu all set up how I Like it and it would be a shame to have to wipe it.Is there any way at all I can install windows along side it without having to do a complete format?
View 3 Replies View RelatedAn upgrade %100 pwnd my system: I performed an upgrade to Lucid from Karmic and I lost my keyboard input and sound etc etc etc. I then made a Karmic boot-run/install CD, & a USB startup stick. I then backed up my important information on flashdrives etc. At this point in time I have 2 partitions one with my old user account & info on it, and the other as a new (re)installed Karmic partition. My question is: What is the procedure for:
a) formatting the drive,
b) not keeping the 2 partitions, and
c) re-installing Ubuntu (karmic) back onto it?
I have GParted ( but I can't see how to use it to format ), and I have no clue how to format the Drive from either within the GUI or at the command-line. How do I format & re-install Ubuntu? What is the sequence or steps? I can probably do the re-install intuitively but I'm concerned there may be Ubuntu tricks I don't know about! Also- does this 2 partition thing cause any complications to formatting?? So honestly my question is simply how to format the drive from within the system.
