Thanks for the responses!

Here is my scenario: Have a WDTV, reads from a samba share. I use a script (sheetmaker) to generate nice thumbnails. In my first pass of my media, I forgot to include the...

Hi everyone, I haven’t posted in many years.

I'm actually embarrassed I can't figure this out myself and my searches have been bizarrely fruitless...

How can I recursively rename files...

VESA drivers will work fine for S-video out until you need to use overlay, like when you fire up VLC or mplayer. Then the video mode changes and the sync goes out the window.

This is a xorg issue,...

I reduced my resolution to 800x600, which forced 60Hz vertical refresh. This allowed me to use the desktop, but as soon as xorg needs to do overlay or switch into another mode, the screen starts...

Bump, if only to report same problem. Anyone?

I also am having issues with this. I got TV-out working with colour, but desktop size is too big for screen size. Resolution and other monitor/video functions are acting weird.

Hey, thanks! That worked beautifully!

I thought it didn't at first, but the rar command doesn't like spaces in filenames, which I can probably fix with quotes or something "escapy"

I have about 8000 jpg files that are scans from comics. I have them organized by volume/chapter/*.jpg.

I'd like to rar the contents of each subdirectory into it's own rar.

I've tried this:

**BUMP**
Anyone?

Um... cbr files are made either like that or by making rar files and renaming them all cbr. Doing it this way saves me time, and I've done it many times before.

I don't really understand the...

Like this:
Comicbooktitle v01 c001 001.jpg
Comicbooktitle v01 c001 002.jpg
Comicbooktitle v01 c001 003.jpg
etc.

Hi and thanks in advance to everyone for any help.

I'm trying to write a command or short script that will walk through a directory structure, find all the jpg files and roll them into rar files...

Am I doing something wrong?

Why is my album art STILL not working?

*EDIT*

I forgot to mention that I'm running 6.10 (or 10.6) edgy and I've successfully compiled and installed gtkpod 0.99.8

Didn't work for me either, even by running aoss firefox from terminal.

Hope this didn't break anything else.

Now THAT's what I call making lemonade from lemons.

Very helpful, thanks, wetwilly!:D

I'm going to agree with most here. This script is terrible. My fonts are funny-looking now, and I don't like en-gb. Also, it's not very cool that it installs other apps like thunderbird.

Worth the...

Some have noticed weird behavior in certain WMV files that used to play in regular Gnome and now look screwy in Compiz.
Symptoms are bad interlacing, which looks like double, triple or...

<WHAP!>
I just slapped down my vote for this thread being the best one ever.

Agreed.:)

There are BOATLOADS of bittorrent clients. Even the builtin one is fine for me...super fast speeds and very low resource usage.

I'm having a hard time believing utorrent performs any better. I...

Huh? I'm not rying to troll, here, but why the heck would you use utorrent under wine when there are PLENTY of torrent clients under linux? Fact is, the basic bittorrent client under Ubuntu allowed...

Well said. I agree.

SPEED BOOSTING TIPS WANTED HERE!

My Ubuntu SCREAMS so fast, it makes me wonder why I ever used XP. I feel as whough MY EYES HAVE BEEN OPENED. I'd like to share 3 simple steps you can take to keep...

First, I'm a man. I have a beautiful wife, two brilliant little kids and I spend WAY too much time on the computer(s.) I also work as a network admin.

Everyone here is forgetting that linux users...

My wife uses Mac OS 10.4, and likes it. She's been using it for a year now. She doesn't seem to like using the XP boxes at her school quite as much, but on the other hand, isn't really all that...
