gt; If you click in the upper right hand corner of your screen, the NX session will minimize. Right click on your NX session in your taskbar, and select close. The NX session will restore itself, and ask you if you want to suspend, terminate or cancel.

Re: Add which package to get mplayer to play an ogg stream?

2005-10-21 Thread Justin Guerin
OCS/codecs-status.html, you should be able to play that format using libvorbis, so perhaps a reinstall of libvorbis, and possibly mplayer, is in order. By the way, if you google on "audio codec 0x73627276" (without the quotes), you should get quite a few hits, and perhaps one of them is in a language you understand better than Swedish. ;-) Good luck, Justin Guerin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

sk, you can stop that process. Alternately, if you can't stop the process, you can do a lazy unmount. Check the umount man page for a complete description. As others have said, you'll have to install the autofs package to get automounting, or use one of the other suggested soluti

might try downloading that driver, and see if it fixes your problems. It's worked for me, and a few other people as well. Note that for X, use the i810_drv.o driver (called i810 in the config file), but in your kernel, load the i915.ko driver. If you want, post the relevant portions of your log file, and we'll see if we can't figure out what's wrong.

ink that would cause the kernels not to be found, so you wouldn't get as far as you did. Still, that's the reason some advocate a separate /boot partition: it can be small, and fully contained within the first 1024 cylinders, eliminating this problem. It shouldn't be necessary on newer computers, however. When you reran lilo after the install, it didn't complain, did it?
