Yea, video forks fine several fedora versions ago, but many tv cards
dont, -not due to fedora but tv in/out drivers lack-. If you mean the
normal video, you can receive pseudo-tv over IP with i.e. Miro. or
many .tv sites. If you mean video from a video-capture card, you can use
some apps, like kdetv or mythtv, but they work like your television: you
need some signal arriving to your computer, an antenna, or cable...

Greets!

- http://linux-sound.org/ has an interesting collection of apps. 
- Install CCRMA repo, browse apps, there are wonderful
- my preferred:
for audio recording: audacity
effects: rakarrack
looping: sooperlooper (runs with sl-gui)
writing: denemo/nted
sequencing: rosegarden
rhythm machine: hydrogen
midi time machine: ardour (ardour is a full app, I use it only as a midi
time gen to sync it with sooperlooper and hydrogen)
others you will need: qjackctl, qsynth

Windows has some nice apps, linux has more, but not as mature as windows
ones (I can't find an advanced equivalent to finale, sometimes I use my
old finale 2007 over wine). Audio quality is excellent. I prefer working
with linux, due to the possibilities, I use an Axiom midi controller.

Maybe some bios issue. Check your bios, in order to select the right
booting device. The second problem I think could be a master/slave wrong
jumpers configuration/cable connection.

Re: FC10 not installing software properly

Welcome to fedora.

You can start reading thoroughly www.fedorafaq.org which is a good site
for starters. Currently you can find answers referred to the Fedora 10
distribution (last one). 

> I wish there was a tutorial on setting sudo or whatever I need to set
> up in order to properly install these packages.  

A couple of tips of mine:

1. Installing Fedora 10 from the liveCD is the easiest way.
2. The unix/linux way requires to have an omnipowerful user called root.
When you install linux, normally are asked to set the root password.
Remember it!
3. The graphic interface requires a different user, when the machine is
first rebooted. You can use your name as username (lets say
christopher), and you will write a password. Remember it, too.
4. Learn to use the console (main menu/system tools/terminal). When you
first open the console, you are the user "christopher" you created on 3.
5. To get root privileges, issue the "su -" command. That will allow you
to configure your computer and install software.
6. You can try installing yumex, which is a frontend for installing
software: "yum -y install yumex". There you can find azureus.

> Can anyone help   I am still having trouble getting my two network

You will need a little help about your network configuration. Maybe this
commands (as root) can help (upper/lowercase is meaningful) if your
network does not work:

# service NetworkManager stop
# system-config-network-tui
(there you configure your network and DNS, there is a graphic interface
for that, but its buggy when first installed)
# service network start

If that does not work, by rebooting you'll get to your last right
config.

> it seems that each needs a user and password.

Cant understand: each system? each network?, anyway, both questions are
confusing. If you've installed linux on two computers, you must just
remember the passwords.

I seem to recall you were trying to install azureus. If so, 
"yum install java-1.6.0-openjdk" should do -you can use yumex instead of
yum-. Or better, "yum install azureus" should automatically install
java.

Installing Java from SUN could be quite a difficult task, I suggest you
try the former method. Check the process here, anyway:

I don't have this problem for a couple of fedora versions. nevertheless,
gnome-keyring-manager should help you in changing the password and avoid
the window (1st suggestion above). If the problem persist, do delete the
keyring (2nd), and set a new password.

Ok, that could be the reason. Seems like the gui would only enable only
when it has gathered enough info from all services, meaning it wont work
if some fails to respond. You should try finding which one is the
service which wont respond.

Suerte.

Lost panel bar

2009-04-13 Thread rodolfoap
Friends, 

I was working normlly on my laptop until yesterday with gnome (no
updates, as I remember, but all weekend I used suspend by closing the
laptop screen many times). Now I turn on the computer, and the gnome
desktop does not show my panel bar (where all the applets and
menu-launcher are). I created a launcher for my terminal, so I can
launch evolution. 

How can I restore my panel bar? Why did it faded?

Thanks?
