  fcr5 and a Vista video
Posted by: anyweb - 2006-04-29, 09:27 PM - Forum: Linux - No Replies


mplayer will do this fine if you set it to 'open gl'

 

for those of you that didn't know, linux-noob.com has a 'video' portal which contains videos (windows and linux)!

 

check it out

  KDE Themes / Gnome Themes
Posted by: xarquid - 2006-04-29, 05:11 PM - Forum: Xorg Problems - Replies (1)


Does anyone have a good guide to Gnome and/or KDE Themes and how to install and use them?

 

I like a lot of the themes I see at *-look.org (i.e. kde-look.org) but I download them and attempt to install/use them in the Look & Feel Options in KDE but they do not load/work when I select certain files (mainly XML). The same thing happens when I try to install/use them in GNOME.

 

Just wondering if anyone has a useful guide or site for either of those X desktop managers and how to use themes with them. Also, any other good sites with up-to-date themes would be useful too :)

  Fujifiilm Finepix Software
Posted by: mizzy - 2006-04-27, 09:57 AM - Forum: Fedora Core Release 4 - Replies (2)


Anybody know of a similar kind of software that will work on FC4? I've checked the fuji website, but they only make it for Mac & windoze.

 

With this software, when I connect up a digital camera, I can auto save it and this software makes a folder and re-names each photo to my chosen name or date etc.

 

Would appreciate if anybody could recommend an appz that will work in a similar way :)

 

Cheers guys! :)

  A unique setup
Posted by: gobblox - 2006-04-26, 06:36 PM - Forum: How Do I? - Replies (2)


I built and set up a pc for the sole purpose of displaying video on a TV either off the hard drive or LAN.

 

The idea is to have maximum "couch friendlyness", so that you never have to use the keyboard, and only a wireless mouse. Which isnt a very difficult task, excecpt for the login you complete after a boot. While the user could just leave it on (its a fairly stripped down low power system), at some point or another it will need to be rebooted by the user.

 

Is there a way to automattically login a user with very limited rights if no action is taken in a certain amount of time? or perhaps automatically unless a certain combination of buttons are pressed at boot time?

 

I havent done much looking around on the subject yet, but the first 3 google searches didnt turn anything up, if someone could point me in the right direction it would be appreciated.

 

I'm currently running FC5 on my test box, but if someone thinks another distro would work out better I'm all ears.

 

The idea is for non-linux users to use it, so any kind of preparation i can do for them is good.

 

Another alternate idea that would solve this problem, is if there were a way to have the bottom of the screen display a keyboard so the user could click letters into textboxes like many pda's allow this would give a kind of failsafe if a user wants to poke around beyond playing videos and doesnt want to bust out a keyboard or otherwise ends up where they shouldnt be.

 

My post turned into a short novel, thanks for getting this far :)

  Fedora Core 5 Install video
Posted by: hybrid - 2006-04-26, 05:25 AM - Forum: Fedora Core Release 5 - Replies (4)


I've made a small video showing the installation process of Fedora Core 5. Hopefully it'll show people who don't use Linux that it isn't that scary.

 

Tell me what you think (there's meant to be no audio at the moment).

 

If this goes down well, I might do more videos, showing you how to add the Fedora extras etc.

  changed distros now getting Grub error 17
Posted by: ron - 2006-04-26, 04:49 AM - Forum: Grub and Lilo - Replies (11)

I am seriously hoping that someone here can help me or point me in the right direction. I am trying to dual boot Fedora Core 5 and Windows XP. I had no problems with installation but on reboot I keep getting Grub Loading Stage1.5. Loading, Please wait... Error 17. Then it just hangs. Here is my hardware setup: I have Windows XP installed on HDA with a NTFS filesystem. HDA is a 30GB HD. HDB is a 120GB HD with 3 partitions. hdb1 is a NTFS partition. Fedora setup hdb2 as Linux and hdb3 as Linux LVM. I edited grub.conf and changed root from root (hd1,1) to root (hd1,2) but that did not change anything. I then proceeded to change root in grub.conf to a number of different values but all met with the same fate. Here are all the other values of root that I tried in grub.conf... (hd1,0) , (hd1,1), (hd1,2), (hd1,3). I tried grub-install /dev/hda but get a error saying "/dev/hdb2 does not have any corresponding BIOS drive." I don't know what else to try. I can't boot anything, so I am seriously hoping that someone will be able to help me. Thanks in advance for all your trouble.

  iptable problem kernel 2.6.16-r3
Posted by: enigma - 2006-04-26, 03:13 AM - Forum: Gentoo - Replies (4)


I've just installed kernel 2.6.16-r3 on my gentoo box, only to run in to a strange problem...

 

rivendale ~ # /etc/init.d/iptables start

* Loading iptables state and starting firewall ...

FATAL: Module ip_tables not found.

iptables-restore v1.3.4: iptables-restore: unable to initializetable 'nat'

 

Error occurred at line: 2

Try `iptables-restore -h' or 'iptables-restore --help' for more informat [ !! ]

 

I recieved the following error while booting into this new kernel so I then checked to see if it was set as a module...

 

rivendale ~ # grep -i netfilter /usr/src/linux/.config

 

CONFIG_NETFILTER=y <-------

# CONFIG_NETFILTER_DEBUG is not set

# Core Netfilter Configuration

# CONFIG_NETFILTER_NETLINK is not set

# CONFIG_NETFILTER_XTABLES is not set

# IP: Netfilter Configuration

 

then i did the following:

 

rivendale ~ # echo "ip_tables" >> /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6.16-gentoo-r3 && modules-update

 

rivendale ~ # modprobe ip_tables

FATAL: Module ip_tables not found.

 

i'd appreciate any ideas on how to fix this little problem thanks in advance...
