[ilugd] Music Player
Hello, Does anyone know of any music player which can be configured to use file names instead of IDv* Tags? It really irks me when most of the music players display songs as Track 1 etc. just because I dont want to edit the IDv3 tags. -- Silver MoonDragon I was given the choice between sanity and creativity.

Re: [ilugd] how to configure
On Tuesday 13 Jun 2006 2:54 am, Varun Mittal [EMAIL PROTECTED] cobbled together some glyphs to say: how can I configure ppp on fedora 5 I would suggest you to use wvdial for ppp. To configure it, follow the following steps: 1) Open a terminal. 2) Become root by running 'su -' 3) Type wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf and press enter. It should detect your modem. 4) Type 'export DISPLAY=:0' and press enter. In another terminal, without becoming root, type 'xhost +', press enter and press CTRL-D to exit the terminal. 5) Go back to the original terminal and type 'gvim /etc/wvdial.conf' and press enter. Alternatively, instead of step 4 and 5, you can use a terminal editor if you want. 6) Edit the file and replace the place-holders with the username, password and phone number. Save and exit. 7) Type 'gvim /etc/sudoers' (I know some might flame me telling me to use 'visudo' instead, but those who are new to Linux aren't really at ease with vi. Moreover, I've checked the following line) and press enter. At the end of the file, add the following line: your-username ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/wvdial Replace your-username with your username. 8) Press CTRL-D to exit the terminal 9) Open any editor and paste the following into it: -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- # KDE Config File [KDE Desktop Entry] Comment[C]=Connect to the internet through PPP SwallowExec= SwallowTitle= BinaryPattern= Name=wvDial MimeType= Exec=sudo /usr/bin/wvdial Icon=/usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/kppp.png TerminalOptions= Path= Type=Application Terminal=1 -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Save it as wvDial.kdelnk on the Desktop.

Re: [ilugd] Undeleting The Trash Files
Hi, On 3/19/06, Neeraj Arora [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi All Can anyone of you tell me how to undelete the files or folders deleted even from trash in Linux...like what we are having for the windows platform. If the blocks have not been already overwritten by something else after deletion, you can recover it using mc (ext2 only). From http://batleth.sapienti-sat.org/projects/FAQs/ext3-faq.html : Q: How can I recover (undelete) deleted files from my ext3 partition? Actually, you can't! This is what one of the developers, Andreas Dilger, said about it: In order to ensure that ext3 can safely resume an unlink after a crash, it actually zeros out the block pointers in the inode, whereas ext2 just marks these blocks as unused in the block bitmaps and marks the inode as deleted and leaves the block pointers alone. Your only hope is to grep for parts of your files that have been deleted and hope for the best. -- Regards, Silver MoonDragon Shakespeare (Playwright) -- To be or not to be.

Re: [ilugd] Query reg Knoppix PostgreSQL

What are the chances of this succeeding while knoppix gets selected over any other distro ?Can knoppix (installed on hard disk) give this service efficiently ? What can be the pitfalls and problems that can be expected? is it something worthwhile doing ? or is it a failure even before it started? Debian and Postgres do not exactly fit together. Debian's postgres package does not adhere to the normal directories for postgres. I once made a mistake of trying to package a postgres app with Knoppix but it took me days to do it. Not only that, but the init scripts are also not very... normal. I would suggest you either compile postgres from source or make the necessary changes after installing the postgres deb. -- Regards, Silver MoonDragon Shakespeare (Playwright) -- To be or not to be.
