  1. It's called mplayerplugin in the main_release repository.
  2. It seems like it could be a 'bad burn'. Either check the media for faults or re-burn. Burn the image at the slowest speed your burner offers.
  3. You might find a satisfactory solution here: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Protecting_the_c..._profile_-_mail
  4. Like tyme said you can use the 'about me' in 'Configure Your Desktop' to change your icon. If that doesnt work you can also rename your desired icon to .face and place it in your /home/username folder.
  5. Can the shouting also be removed!! :lol: Arsal do you see anything at all? Did you do a media check to verify a good burn? What error message(s) do you see (if any)?
  6. Thank you theYinYeti, I was going to post the results of that very same thing. Moving to another location other than the current drive is longer. Yes you are correct ianw1964, I got the same timing as you when moving to the same drive. :)
  7. No way is moving faster than copying. I'm not talking about a few bytes or megabytes here. I'd be interested in your timings if you're prepared to do a test with say a 3-4gb file. :unsure:
  8. This has promted me to ask a question that's been on my mind for a while. Why do updates to packages I already have installed never get flagged? I have to manually change from All<-> All to All Updates<-> Not installed and then select them for installation.
  9. 512mb is not enough memory to be running KDE4! Up until 5 days ago I had exactly the same processor as you with 1gb of ram and things were sluggish then. I've since upgraded to an Athlon64 3Ghz with 1.5gb of ram and KDE4 runs like a dream.
  10. lspcidrake -v | fgrep -i AUDIO - will tell you which driver your card uses by default grep sound-slot /etc/modprobe.conf - will tell you what driver it currently uses /sbin/lsmod - will enable you to check if its module (driver) is loaded or not /sbin/chkconfig --list sound and /sbin/chkconfig --list alsa - will tell you if sound and alsa services are configured to be run on initlevel 3 aumix -q - will tell you if the sound volume is muted or not /sbin/fuser -v /dev/dsp - will tell which program uses the sound card A lot more than you asked for, but hey in for a penny, in for a pound :)
  11. I'd also like to give SmartUrpmi a mention too. I like this site because it will produce a script at the end of your selection to automate the removal/adding of repos and, it will auto update your system after adding the repos.
  12. Try /usr/bin/lspci (or as root simply lspci) to get your wireless card name/type. If it's connected to the pcmcia slot do /sbin/lspcmcia or just lspcmcia as root.
  13. You can use the Easy-Urpmi link at the top of this page.
  14. Have you tried urpme --auto-orphans ?
  15. The IP address of the computer that connects to the internet, is the IP address you should use as the gateway address on the computer sharing the internet connection. On the machine sharing the internet connection MCC--> Network & Internet--> Network Center click Ethernet then click Configure. You will see the gateway section, enter the IP address of the machine that connects to the internet there. You may need to reboot the machine for the new settings to take effect.
  16. Yes, those (for some) reported issues! :unsure: :)
  17. Anyone care to tell me what the current community template is?
  18. Adam, you conduct yourself with quiet dignity as usual. Sadly it's a fact of life that the 'valued' employee is in decline. We are nothing more than a commodity to be used and despatched on a whim. It's no surprise you haven't been told the ins & outs, these things usually get told to the media before the employee!! Stand tall, we know your worth, even if Mandriva doesn't. I wish I could express my 'outrage' as eloquently as John :)
  19. I have the same version as you. I didn't realise they had changed the look of the config menu :blink: It's easier to apply your skin(s) now. You'll find what you need under Interface.
  20. scarecrow is correct, cut & paste your created skins2 folder to /home/<username>/.config/vlc. To apply your skin do the following. In vlc: Go to Settings--> Preferences make sure Advanced options to the bottom right is selected. Now open up Interface--> Main interfaces. Click on Skins and make sure the name of the skin you require is listed in the Skin to use box now click on Main interfaces at the Interface module box click the drop down arrow and select Skinnable Interface. Click Save, restart VLC and it should now be using your selected skin. The /usr/share/vlc/skins2 directory already exists try: cp /home/my user name/Desktop/skins2/* /usr/share/vlc/skins2 as root instead.
  21. These skins can also be placed in your hidden /home/<username>/.vlc/skins2 folder instead.
  22. On the web editor point. Bluefish might suit your needs. It's available in the repos.
