1024x768 resolution assistance

2006-01-27 Thread Richard Wegner

Hi there,

I recently had Debian 3.1 unstable version on my system, but my X 
windows kept on going bad.  I did some diagnostics and found out that my 
video card was one of those that it didn't really like that much.  What 
I am wondering is for some suggestions for a video card that does work 
quite well with Debian 3.1 unstable with high resolutions.  With the 
current one I have, it currently goes only 800x600 on my resolution no 
matter what I try and do.


I had to revert to Mandrake 10.1 Community Edition for the time being 
till I can find a good enough video card that will work.


My current video card is a GeForce 2 FX 5200 with 128mb onboard video RAM.

Thanks...BTW, the only CD I have for my Debian system is my Network 
Install CD (which worked great).  Thanks...

2005-08-17 Thread Richard Wegner

Hi there,

I am currently running Debian 3.1 and have no major problems except one:

Sometimes I am in the middle of an application, whether it be a game, 
OpenOffice doing some work, or even chatting using xChat 2.4.3 my system 
logs me off and I go back to the logon screen.  Like I said, it doesn't 
matter what I'm running.  This happens at periodic times of the day and 
applications are varied on what I'm running.  Any idea why this could be 
happening?


Thanks...

AOL for Debian

2005-08-03 Thread Richard Wegner

Hi there,

I hope I am asking in the right e-mail group.  I know of the program 
GAIM but I am wanting to download the official AOL Instant Messenger for 
Debian.  When I try and do this, I get a bunch of garbage on the screen, 
so I figure I do a Save Page As... and I type in the filename.  Well, 
I then do a dpkg -i filename.deb and it says since it was saved as 
ASCII I can't do anything with it, because it doesn't think it is a 
binary.  I then followed the instructions on AOL's website saying to 
right click it and save it that way, well when I do that it comes up 
with the file jasper.jsp or something like that.


How can I get this then?

Thanks..

Actually, you can. There IS an offical AOL IM client for linux:

http://www.aim.com/get_aim/linux/latest_linux.adp?aolp=

There are even Debian-specific installation instructions.


 


I did that and that is how I got into the situation I was in.  I tried to

1) Click the deb for Debian 3 or higher
2) Garbage came up on the screen
3) Did Save Page As... and saved it
4) Did (as root) dpkg -i packagename.deb
5) Got errors stating it was not a binary package so it wouldn't work.

Then I did what it also suggested if I had problems by right clicking it 
and came up with a file linker.js NOT the .deb file as I thought I would 
get.


Thanks

DVD Authoring

2005-07-27 Thread Richard Wegner
Hi there, I'm currently using Debian 3.1 and just was wondering if 
ANYONE was sucessful in making video DVDs with it.  I use K3B for backup 
of my data onto DVD but not for making video DVDs.  I have a bunch of 
home movies I want to put into a menu selection and send to my parents 
in Ohio.  I tried the Video DVD selection on k3b but it gives me an 
error stating about size, it only puts 700 or so mb availible while the 
DVD's are 4.7gb.


Thanks

QDVD Author

2005-07-17 Thread Richard Wegner

Hi there,

I am wondering if ANYONE has had any luck with making a DVD from the 
program QDVDAuthor?  I am trying to make one of a bunch of video clips 
that I want to put into a DVD for my parents in Ohio.


I am currently running Debian 3.1 0a release with gnome 2.8.3.  I know 
K3B does a GREAT job of making Data DVD's but I don't want that, I want 
them to select it from a menu screen on what ones they want to view.


Thanks

Canon S300 USB Printer

2005-07-13 Thread Richard Wegner

Hi there,

I am sorry, but I am new to the subscription, so pardon if this has 
already been asked already.


I am currently running the new Debian 3.1 with KDE 3.3 and I have a 
Canon S300 USB Printer.  My Control Panel recognizes the printer in the 
USB Port that I have it plugged in, even with the right name.  However, 
when I try to print something I don't get anything.  I don't get a 
printout or even an error on my screen.  I thought I didn't have the 
driver installed (or even maybe I don't, if I don't SOMEONE HELP with 
that too) I get this error message.  Actually here is a webpage that has 
a screen shot of the error message I get:  
http://www.geocities.com/doctor_vell/printer-help.png


If I need a printer driver, where do I find one?  WARNING: The picture 
was FULL screen (no idea the resolution of the graphic, but my screen is 
1024x768).


Thanks...
