You sir are a gentleman and a scholar. I appreciate you taking the time to help, and it works a treat.

Hi there -

What I'm trying to do is a command which will go through a bunch of folders, find anything named (filename).mkv and create a symbolic link next to it named (filename).mkp

I know...

You sir are a god amongst men. You have my eternal gratitude. Thanks very much for taking the time to write that, I'm no longer stuck in Windows on my Bravia.

Assuming that you've read the threads involved, then that is a pretty unequivocal "no questioning decisions in public", which is frankly appalling. I resent the inference that anything I said before...

You're suggesting one of two things here. Firstly, you could be saying that it is OK to question the closure, but that should have been done here. If you are suggesting that, then that is frankly...

Thankyou for having the decency to reply to this, unlike someone else the last time I raised a complaint, even though your reply isn't addressing concerns, but rather restating positions, which is...

I have sent a message to KiwiNZ requesting a comment in this thread.

It pains me to do this at all, it really does. This shouldn't be necessary. But KiwiNZ has repeatedly exacerbated simple situations.

Firstly, the closing of my thread with regard to the status of...

Put it this way - you can teach yourself computer stuff much easier than you can teach yourself most humanities subjects. So I agree with whoever said study humanities and keep computers as a hobby....

If it is any use to anyone, I put Smplayer SVN debs in my PPA semi-regularly.

Hiya -

I bought a new eee 901 - which I highly reccomend - except for this one issue. The machine will connect to another display in clone mode, but it won't allow me a second screen in the sense...

Tried that and it did nothing.

There's something really broke either in QT3 or in the KDElibs / KDEbase. I pulled down KDE4.1 beta 2 from the Kubuntu testing PPA and that is running fine, and I...

The Nvidia driver dislikes it when I do that!

I just discovered, the kdesu text entry dialog is broke too, but if I run any of those programs as root with gksudo they run fine.

Hi -

This has come at the worst possible time for me, during a very heavy workload, so if anyone can help it would be most appreciated.

Most QT apps no longer work properly for me after...

lol. Not often, it just so happened that as I wrote the last post I was resizing the title bars in Kwin and that reminded me of the button rearranging for an example to use.

And not everything has...

I'm a KDE user, but am reasonably ambivalent between them. I just had to reply to the above post though by saying that I despise Gconf with a seething hatred. It's a horrible, ugly system in my...

It can hardly take longer than the full development cycle of KDE 4.0.

Probably should have waited to post the link after my download finished lol.

Edit: Oh, and to reassure people about running it as a full session - it won't screw up your preferences. That's what...

Yes, smplayer packages depend on either mplayer or mplayer-nogui.

XP alone on all my uni computers. However, I use Ubuntu at home (obviously) and all my lecturers have let me submit as PDF from OOo rather than .doc, so I can handle it. Having said that, I haven't...
