Hey Hagar,

The above suggestions didn't fix my problem, but changing my default language to Canadian English (as you suggested in a different thread) did. Thanks

In case anyone else has this...

Hagar,

I've been working on this problem FOREVER with OpenMedSpel! I didn't get the script edit to work, but I simply enabled the Canadian English option under Tools-->Language-->All Text. Now my...

e-medtools makes a free spellchecker for Firefox, Thunderbird, and Open Office. Unfortunately there is a known bug wherein it doesn't work under Ubuntu: if you have it enable, all non-medical English...

There's a known bug wherein OpenMedSpel will not work properly in Ubuntu Karmic (and by extension, Linux Mint 8). (See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/329968) If you can...

Hi everyone,

Flash 10 in Firefox 3.5.8 and Ubuntu Karmic has been crashing every time I encounter certain videos. Amazon.com rental videos/previews are the main culprit. The video attempts to load...

Okay, so I struggled in naming this one.

I have a remote that emulates a mouse and partial keyboard. It works great (plug and play), but I have a problem using tv-viewer, a rare lightweight app...

When I first upgraded to Linux I put Ubuntu on an external HD. It worked well, but in my experience moving Ubuntu from a USB HD to my internal HD made it much faster.

Either way it was lightening...

Problem solved, mainly by an excellent little program called TV-viewer. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8823263#post8823263

CMAP and Freemind.

Freemind is a hierarchal mind map writing program. CMAP requires you to connect concepts with verbs and is generally more flexible. A little bit of a learning curve, but both...

Mplayer caused my laptop to hang about five to fifteen seconds whenever I used the keyboard volume controls. Banshee doesn't have that problem, and I find it prettier.

Here's the .xawtv file produced by tvscan. Is this output valid? There are no frequencies listed.

[global]
freqtab = us-cable

[defaults]
input = Television
norm = NTSC-M

[unknown (2)]

More info.

It seems neither scan nor w_scan support NTSC/analogue, so I'm not able to produce a valid channels.conf using these programs. TVtime does not support the HVR-1950 because it does not...

Hi All,

I'm trying to scan for analogue cable channels. How do I go about this?

I'm using the Hauppage HVR-1950 in Karmic.

After initial setup I'd like to use a program other than MythTV.

No, afraid not. The slot is labeled PCI express; I have only one. It's an IBM PC; I assume the motherboard is PCI as well. It's a very odd setup. The desktop is compact (used from a corporation). The...

I triple-checked everything. It seems I must have a problem with my motherboard. Well I did buy the machine used for a hundred, so what can one expect?

I just received an MIS NX8400GS graphics card, PCI-e. I plugged it in, and nothing happened. I swicthed the BIOS to default to PCI graphics (the options were PCI an OGD, that is, onboard graphics),...

Both HDs were 40 gig and I'm getting a video capture card, so I definitely needed the space. I'm trying to put off buying a 160gb as long as possible :p

The procedure went without a hitch. I now...

I have XP on my IDE hard drive and Ubuntu on my USB hard drive (which is really an IDE drive with a USB adapter and external power souce). We've used Windows once in the past month, so we decided to...

Update: I'm now able to get Sugar on a Stick to run on my desktop by adding the boot line "nomodeset".

For convenience reasons I'd love to get it to run as an Ubuntu DE, but Sugar as a DE...

I've tried the medical terminology dictionary OpenMedSpel for OpenOffice, but when using that dictionary for spell check all non-medical words get underlined as misspelled. I don't want to switch...

I used the same fix. EXCELLENT program.

The only problem I still run across is the inability to get the default open/save directory to change. I like to save docs to my UbuntuOne folder for easy...

I'm afraid I'm the wrong person to ask. I haven't ordered it yet, waiting for my tax check. I'l let you know how things work out. Information for MythTV compatibility is hard to come by, as I'm sure...

Thanks for the info. I'll order it within the week. :D

Dude, you seriously, SERIOUSLY need to calm down.

It is probably true I put too much in my search. My last card was an ATI with proprietary drivers that didn't work, so I'm probably a bit...
