Thanks for your help. Kino seems to be pretty much what I looking for.

Hi! I am dual booting with Windows Vista, although I almost never use it. I installed Ubuntu from within Windows, and as a result the boot loader used is NT Loader. Is there any way to Make Ubuntu...

Thanks tommcd, you've really been a lot of help. This forum is great!!:P

Thanks for that. just to clarify in case someone else has some ideas, it's not so much vid camera video I want to edit as mpeg4 i.e. ripped DVDs

Hi! I am looking for some software that I can use to cut up video clips and edit parts out. can anyone help with some suggestions?

Thanks so much for all your help. Just one more thing I'm curious about. How do you retrieve the back up? I mean if I back up sources.list and then wreck it, how to I get the backup back in use?

I just installed AWN, and I really like it. The only problem is that I can't seem to put Icons onto it. I can drag the ones from the Ubuntu Applications menu onto it, but if an application I...

WOOOOOOOOO!! so far so good!! Thanks so much! :guitar: It seems to be working fine. I will leave it till after a restart before I really party, but for the moment it's working.

sorry for any confusion. I mean that Compiz is working fine, but apt-get installs and updates etc are still not working

I was able to install Compizconfig-settings-manager by downloading the .deb package from the internet and then just installing it (and its dependecies) from the dektop, so that is working now.

Thanks for all that, but still nothing. the apt-get update returned:

Ign http://us.archive.ubuntu.com intrepid/main...

Sorry to be very n00by, but I assume that means shnging the Download From selection in the Software sources? I have set it to Server for United States. On refreshing I get the following:

Then on clicking close, this...

I have run the update. This is what it returns:

Thanks for all your help, but nothing so far just the same thing. Yes I see that the package name was wrong, but it doesn't change anything since even with the correct name I get the same result.

Ok, I'm really having trouble with installing stuff with apt-get. I am pretty new to Linux. I installed Ubuntu before and it worked fine, but I had a problem with my hard drive and have had to...

Not sure if this is the right place to put this, but I couldn't see anywhere better. I just installed a chrome theme in firefox running on intrepid. Once I restarted, firefox is mostly blue, things...

Thanks, but still no-go:

I did this and it gave me this back:



Then I did the second thing I was asked:




This is the result:

Thanks for your reply, but it didn't make any difference. The only difference is that now after the upgrade fails it tells me that there are 721 instead of 722 new updates. If you have any more...

Ok, I have just installed ubuntu 8.10. I am now trying to upgrade to 9.04 as it prompts me to do so on the update manager. It all starts ok, then it tells me that third party sources have been...

thanks a lot for this helpful advice. :D

Hi, I'm a new Linux user and am trying to make a complete switch from Vista. At the moment I am still dual booting with vista, although I am mostly living in Ubuntu (Intrepid). My problem is that I...

Thanks a lot for your help. I have had NO experience with networks etc until I recently came to college (which is where I am now) So your question about the proxy threw me off since I didn't really...

Sorry about this folks! The above post is only partly true. I successfully installed Amarok using apt-get, but other things, like for example the compizconfig-settings-manager did not work, so it...
