Anyway on my windows xp pro machine, i can access \thork which is the machine and i see 'media-stuff' which is a start i guess, but im refuesed access automatically.
I am a relative moron when it comes to using Ubuntu. This is a relatively old machine and I purchased it from a friend. She said Ubuntu was a good choice to maximize space as opposed to XP. I want to find a way (and maybe an example of one) to get a torrent download app on my computer for file sharing. I found one that uses Java, but when I tried to install java it was utter failure.

So, which slack release is better to use? I aim to use the jfs file system, but I'm not sure it is good choice.

A professor suggested we can use kate with terminal for better speed so I thought I would give it a try. Unlike vim, geany, eclipse and others kate does not indent java code, for example after "{ <ENTER>" it should indent to the right 1 tab, but it does not, so I have to press <TAB> every time I go to new like, and I have to go back and forth for different statements...
This does not make things faster at all, Is this even possible? Any other editor suggestions that do not use GTK, but kde native Qt with terminal emulator?
I am trying to torrent using transmission. The problem is, when I click a link to download something, I just get
"/tmp/mn3BZo4y.torrent.part could not be saved, because the source file could not be read. Try again later, or contact the server administrator."
This is happening on all torrent sites.It never comes up with an "open with" option or anything.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to find out which hard drive my vista installation is labeled in ubuntu so I can finish editing the grub menu.1st file.
All it says on the sourceforge page is
Quote:
Root - You likely have something along these lines "(hd0,1)". "hd0" refers to the your hard drive while 1 points to the partition. Note that for GRUB, partitions start at 0 and not 1. for example 0=Partition 1, 1=Partition 2 and so on.
It doesn't say how I can find out which one my vista is. So I need to know what my hard drive is in linux. Is it hd0,1 or hd0 or what?
I have an MPEG video file of 1.2 GB. I want to chop it into three (unequal length) pieces so that each piece can play well as a standalone video clip in most media players.I tried using trusty old Avidemux, but I'm getting problems at the start of vid clip #2 and #3, where the colours go very odd indeed before righting themselves after a few seconds.
The settings I used were:
Code:
Video: MPEG-4 ASP (avcodec)
Configure: Constant Quantiser - 4 (all other settings at default)
No filters applied.
Audio: MP3 (lame)
[code]...
The settings above are those I use most often and I usually manage to get reasonably decent output. But this is, I think, the first time my input has been an MPEG file.
I had/have an old program which works on XP called PaperPort. It allows me to edit and fill in blank forms. I have been searching for something like that for Linux, and to date found nothing, Chances are that I am looking in the wrong places.

The trouble is: I have 2 OSes, Opensuse and Windows 7, and Grub that is installed in my Extended partition, so each time I enter this recovery program active flag is changed and Windows is loaded instead of grub. I have noticed some boot files in that program's folder, so the question is how can I edit them in most convenient manner? I have kde 4.5.3 is there some sort of included program that would help?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have some japanese music files stored on a flash drive that the titles of which are in japanese originally. While in the flash drive, when I go to Properties -> Audio, the title is written in japanese. It does not allow me to edit the file, no matter what permissions I have on it, therefore I can't change the name to english. So, I tried Rhythmbox instead, and transfered the file there. I could change the name, however there is STILL a huge problem.
I have around 300 japanese music files, all of which have to be renamed into english.
I did all this for all of them in Rhythmbox, and clicked "quit" when I was done. When I came back to transfer the files to my MP3 player like usual, I opened Rhythmbox, and...
ALL OF THE FILES WERE STILL IN JAPANESE! It didn't save any of the work I did on editing them. But, I calmed down and thought "oh, you can save playlists! I am sure that if I save them on one, it will keep the edits!" I did this, and it saved nothing. It took me 2 hours to finish the renaming, just to find out that it can't save information edits at all.

Problem is, now, links in Evolution and Gwibber no longer work! It's still trying to open Chrome. Presumably I have to edit a variable or config file with the path to the browser in it? Where would I find this?

It's a pain to use Rhythmbox to edit the artist, album, year, Genre and other info of each song because you have to find the song by it name and then change the info. There is no way to put it in a view as folder or drive name or partition so you can simply go to where the files them selves are on the drive and edit mutiple files at the same time without having to search for each song individuly.
In XP all you need to do is right click and select properties and then edit the info there but in Linux all you can do is view the info under properties.

I wanted to load this data into a different database product (one that forked from Postgresql, so its syntax is very similar).I needed to change the syntax of the "COPY" command in the pg_dump output, remove references to "public", and change the table owner name. sed did these for me (albeit slowly). The output from pg_dump is a file called "pg-dump-output.sql".

I use cygwin on Windows7 to open a ssh session to my linux box. When I edit a file with vim, I don't have color, only kind of gray bold. I have colors when I do a ls into my ssh session. I have also colors when I edit files from a ssh session from my linux box to my linux box. I modified the shortcut on Window7 to run cygwin in 256 colors, no effect. Do I need to set an environment variable on my cygwin session ?
On Cygwin and On Fedora when "sshed" from Gygwin : TERM=cygwin
But any changes I make cannot be saved unless I'm in root. I might be doing this wrong, but I cannot log into root or figure out how to open this file as the root user. I'm still somewhat new to Linux, so could someone please give me an idiot-friendly step-by-step of what to do to open, edit, and save this file as a root user?
