I can't figure this thing out for the life of me. I went by a different install how-to because with it I gained control of my fan, though I use 'control' loosely. Right now my fan pulses and I have...

I'm trying to watch video online from the NOVA web site but am unable to. The formats they support are Windows Media and Quicktime. I had assumed my purchasing the Fluendo codes pack would enable me...

This still is not fixed and I have yet to figure out why. Firefox will not cache anything, I can not download anything to any where on the drive. I'm at a complete loss at what to do and it's very...

How do I change the free space from /host to be available to all?

sda1 is the Vista partition and IIRC shouldn't be mounted. Sorry I forgot to mention I am dual booting.

... and Firefox just quit on me. Closed on it's own :mad:
Seems to be Flash related. But I can't figure out what or why.

First off Firefox is being stubborn. Clean install of 8.10. Bookmarks don't seem to work nor does the back button. I had messed with reinstalling FF and seemed to find a program that was in conflict....

This is what the install manager tells me:

Restart and all seems well again, i'm posting from there at least :P

ty, marked as solved.

The first command did not work.

The second line went through and did something. I'm back at the command line now.
What next? Restart?

How do I get it to work again?
I tried booting from the live cd and re-installing the driver, did nothing. I have no clue how to work from the command line. Nothing in BIOS changed and no new parts...

All players work via the command line only. Must be a bug in the GUI somewhere. Reported to launchpad --> https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/54351

ripped a dvd to the HDD and tried playback that way, same thing. Tried turning the video driver off, same. tried the other driver (96) same thing.
Card is a geforce fx 5500 pci 128mb ddr that works...

I had the -9 but I felt it may be a problem and removed it. Both did the same thing though. I also thought maybe there was a conflict between the two, which there hasn't seemed to be.

Anyone?

After restart I am back in the same boat. So what does that say?

Xine, VLC, Totem and Mplayer will all play the same garbled video though, with errors of course.


This is what I got as output...

I have to restart and try a few dvd's but i think i may finally have this thing won.
