<0> 90 nicks, but not one is here. good to know.
<1> you might be missing a plugin, or mplayer itself, i dont use mplayer, try apt-cache search mplayer
<0> there is all kinds installed
<1> also ircing as root is very silly
<2> fab5freddy http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_install_Multimedia_Player_.28Mplayer.29_with_plug-in_for_Mozilla_Firefox
<0> mozilla-mplayer is already the newest version.
<0> i've tried all the tutorials, how tos, etc.. nothing works
<2> does mplayer work?
<2> outside of the browser
<0> i can watch youtube with no volume
<2> you tube is flash afaik
<2> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_install_Flash_Player_.28Macromedia_Flash.29_Plug-in_for_Mozilla_Firefox
<0> flash works fine.. it's mplayer that is giving me issues
<0> i downloaded a .wmv and it doesn't work
<0> i'll try to get mplayer working on my own, thanks anyways
<0> Here is the deal, I am able to watch a .wmv by using firefox32 but i am getting the same Error: mplayer execv: No such file or directory
<0> err, mplayer32
<0> i am using ubuntu dapper 6.06 on a amd athlon x2 64 4200
<0> I am trying to use ubuntu as the OS but have dealt with nothing but snags, these issues are not a factor on Windows..why is so?
<2> why not 6.10?
<0> i feel this is hopeless, impossible for figure out on my own, barely any support, how can i continue like this? please help me!
<0> all i get is "did you do this?" "did you do that?" nothing helps.
<2> why not 6.10?
<0> i tried to install the 64 bit version of 6.10, when the CD gets to the splash screen with was black and white it froze.. and eventually the cd stopped spinning. so i had to use 6.06
<2> why 64bit?
<2> so
<0> because i have a amd athlon x2 64 4200, i want to take advantage of it.. not to mention i have used 6.10 on my old system and still had the same problems with yahoo! video
<2> let summarise
<2> you have 64bit os
<2> and have trouble running 32bit app:)
<2> how about you go 32bit and try that
<0> yes. but when i was 32bit i had the same issues
<2> exact error message is?
<2> on 32bit
<0> Error: mplayer execv: No such file or directory
<0> I've searched google and found only a handful of threads. the solutions offered did not work for me
<0> I've only recently been able to get the flash plugin to work. So i can watch youtube but yahoo video, mlb.tv and others don't work.. and youtube has no volume
<2> tried getting vlc to work
<2> that does flash too
<0> and how do i do that?
<2> same page
<2> 1 link up:P
<0> which page?
<2> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_install_Multimedia_Player_.28VLC.29_with_plug-in_for_Mozilla_Firefox
<0> it still uses the mplayer plugin, how do i change it, i have install the packages
<2> reverse what you did to install of course :)
<0> what linux do you use?
<0> second question, why are there 90 people in this channel but nobody is chatting?
<2> debian
<2> because not everyone is on the same time zone as you ?:)
<0> how does debian compare to ubuntu?
<2> well similar packager but a lot fewer updates for it
<2> apt-get
<0> do you think i should continue with ubuntu for 64 bit? or is there something better?
<2> 64bit in general i would not go to on any os
<2> and yes there are issues with 32bit apps running in 64bit in all oses
<0> do you operate strictly from the command line or gui also?
<2> gui also
<2> but not apt :)
<0> i don't think i would be able to survive without apt
<0> so my situation is this, i have a new 64 bit processor, which has no operating system and applications that enhance it in any way.. i can't watch streaming video, my new computer is a glorified web browser
<2> it is not an itanium it runs 32bit just fine and fast
<0> what would be something exciting i can do with my 64 bit processor?
<0> i must admit, it processes very fast and quiet
<2> i have no idea what you find exciting
<0> what would you do?
<2> hmm probably do some photoshop stuff
<2> see how fast it was with smp
<2> but i would get a core 2 duo
<0> but does amd athlon not have less bottlenecking?
<0> what is smp?
<2> no core 2 duo is better :)
<2> symmetric multi processing
<0> how do i do this symmetric multi processing?
<2> you already do you have a dual core cpu
<0> ohh.. but photoshop is windows only. how would you use it? it wine? or would you use gimp?
<2> wine/crossover but i am not linux only:)
<0> ohh.. see i am a big believer of free software, so i don't use any microsoft products but in the end i sacrifice because i am not savvy enough to get ubuntu to work the way i want it
<0> nice chatting with you, catch ya later
<3> one stupid question: is there a way for grub to load the vista boot loader(BCD) wich can only reside on MBR - I mean can a floppy stored grub load any MBR boot code?
<4> need help in downloading the latest version of Debian. How many CD's are needed?
<5> hi. how do i get LILO to boot an OS on hdb1?
<6> I want to join legal but it says "correct key required". Is there any way I can go around this nonsense?
<7> tankotalp: without finding out the key, no
<7> I have no idea how you'd find out the key
<7> try googling
<8> what's the point of having an alias to "webmaster : root"?
<9> that root receives the email meant for webmaster
<9> root is usually an alias as well
<9> provided we are talking about email here
<8> ok but if I don't have my own domain setup, my current e-mail is devseaton@Hotmail.com"
<8> doesn't make sense to me with that now does it
<8> ok
<8> so how do I create my own domain
<8> it won't even register over the internet even if I create a local one
<10> <shrug> Go to a registrar and buy a name. Not like it's hard.
<9> there is probably still a mailserver on the local machine where emails to root ends up
<8> so I can makeup one for now then?
<8> ok I'll register one mwilson
<9> you don't need a domain to receive email on the local machine, it will simply be limited to the local users sending email to eachother
<10> <sigh> And people wonder why the internet is in the shape it's in.
<8> because of ppl like me?
<8> this totally makes sense if I had a domain
<8> ok good ty gathond
<8> what is a "child server" to a webserver?
<8> they say it in this "Debian Bible" book
<8> I also have "The Debian System" book too if you say that one sux
<1> PFloyDLL reading books will enlighten you (after you've read it) if you want quick answers to questions www.google.com/linux
<8> cool ty ScoT
<11> im trying to add YaST2 to my fluxbox menu in openSuSE 10.2
<11> i was wondering if there was any way to make xterm close after a sucessfull root p***word has been entered
<11> i got xterm to open ask for the root p***word, but xterm stays open after YaST2 fires up, and i want to to close as soon as that happens
<11> ^want it
<11> this is what i have so far, xterm -title YaST2 -e su -c yast2
<12> I have ISDN Serial Modem, i want to configure it on my fedora box, but i dont know how to start, the modem is plugged with my Fedora 4
<13> hello
<13> www.mentalcases.net/~sinthetek/drip.jpg
<3> like someone would open that...
<14> mmm.. coffee
<13> why would they not?
<13> tojoe: :D
<14> although i know that image from somewhere else
<13> oh yeah, i totally stole it
<13> err... borrowed
<13> :P
<13> i took the image cuz i gave 2 people the url for the site and they seemed to think i was talking about something else on the page
<13> and umm.. i dunno
<13> anyway
<15> hi guys, I have installed debian linux in vmware on windows xp host OS. I cant seem to get networking working, I have tried the different types of networking scenarios in vmware but to no avail...my ifconfig in vmware/debian seems to show the right config. but I cant ping external sites
<13> it's just not as cool showing something if you have to point it out :P
<13> i guess i could have found the <img> on the site but this way was easier
<3> robspierre: use nat as the setting for the Internet connection if the bridge thing is too much h***le for you
<12> I have ISDN Serial Modem, i want to configure it on my fedora box, but i dont know how to start, the modem is plugged with my Fedora 4
<16> Sarthor, isdnbill isdnconf isdnctrl isdndial isdnhangup isdnlog isdnrate isdnrep isdnstatus
<16> those commands should exist on your machine, you might start looking at those
<14> an external isdn modem doesnt look much different from a analog modem, so wvdial etc. should work
<12> linux_terror, isdnbill
<14> the isdn* stuff is for internal cards afaik
<16> tojoe, guessing your right on that, wvdial probably could work on an external
<12> linux_terror, Yes i can see isdnconf, isdnctrl isdndial there.
<16> Sarthor, man each one and see if its what you need
<16> man wvdial as well, you may find you can just dial out and be good to go
<17> who know to make tar?
<14> google
<18> !tar
<18> oh, yes, google
