OK, stupid question.
How do I run a program as the admin? Logged in the only user available.
Nevermind. Figured it out.

I just got a new Windows 7 PC and had an old HDD with lots of data on it that I installed into it as a second drive.
I quickly realized that I had forgotten that Linux uses the ext system so even...

It is part of a presentation that someone else is doing and they requested the DV-AVI format.
I have tried importing the vob file using kino but for some reason the sound does not sync up when I do...

Bump?

Bump?

How would I go about converting a vob file to a DV-MOV or DV-AVI file?
Would I have to convert each vob file individually or could I rip it straight from the DVD while watching it somehow?

I need to save some clips from a DVD as either a DV-AVI or DV-MOV format.
What program can I use to do this?

I just purchased a Western Digital Caviar Green 500GB SATA hard drive.
I loaded the latest Ubuntu Live disc and chose to install it. It recognized the drive and said that proceeding would erase...

How would I check if the flag is set?
I am not sure about the boot loader, I just tried to install directly to the drive from Ubuntu.
I found the option in the BIOS to boot directly from the...

I hate being one of those people but Bump?

Unfortunately I don't have access to another PC but I've never had any issues with the drive before. It is a new 4GB Sandisk.

Only a few years. It definitely can boot from a USB because the option exists in the BIOS. It is set to Enabled.

I'm trying to boot from a USB drive instead of a Live CD but keep getting the line "Boot failed".
I've checked that the USB is the first option in the BIOS and have tried using the built in USB...

Hmmm. Getting access to another PC quickly might be a problem for me. Anything linux compatible that would do the same thing?

My PC froze, unable to determine why, and I was forced to do a hard shut down. When I restarted the Palimpsest Disk Utility came on and said I had bad sectors and my HDD was failing.
Is there any...

My computer will not boot up and I have no boot disc. I believe the hdd may have failed.
I am able to connect to the internet using my Playstation 3 but it will only let me download files...

After my last update some flash sites will stop playing in the middle and I can't start them again.
Penny Arcade The Series is one example:

How can I revert...

While attempting to watch any of the video at Penny Arcade TV the video will load and play to the halfway point and then freeze. This started happening after a recent update but I am unsure what...

After I installed the latest update I am unable to view anything on youtube. The video starts but after a few seconds will freeze. If I select a different portion of the video it will sometimes...

Perhaps a better question would be:
How can I search the iPod for any and all image files?
This way I can see if gtkpod resizes the image, the ipod resizes it, or a secondary smaller thumbnail...

When using iTunes to add album art to an iPod it resizes the image so that it displays properly on the smaller screen and also presumably to speed the population of Coverflow.
Does gtkpod do this...

I am using EAC and Lame to encode my CDs for the first time. From what I've read id3v2 seems to be the preferred method of tagging mp3's but I apparently have the option of using both with the...

You are a fantastic human being. It works perfectly. As a plus I can put any pic I want as the album cover and even swap them out if I change my mind. Thank you.

The reason I was going to use banshee was because it would put the Album art onto my iPod. Will Amarok do this as well?

I am trying to find a way to add album art to music folders in Banshee that don't have any. Things like Podcasts and various non music folders. I have heard that putting a .jpg labeled "front.jpg"...
