Re: How to start a video from command line or menu?

I was able to install xine-ui from synaptic, but it makes terrible noises when running (like very loud white-noise). mplayer works fine, except it opens a huge terminal window with a log of lines of technical info scrolling while the video runs. Is there any way to make that terminal window not open (or resize it very small) while keeping the video window the main attraction? On my Arch Linux system, I installed a package called gnome-mplayer and it works great with audio. Frankly I never tried any videos with it so far. Dunno if that is what gmplayer used to be or if that is something different. --- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss

It works well. --- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
How to ssh copy a file from local to web host when logged in?
What is the syntax to copy a file from a local computer to a web host server when logged in to the web host server? I used to use 'ftp' to upload files to my web host server, but it seems that in the latest update 'ftp has been removed from my system. So when I 'ssh' log-in to my web host server, what is the correct syntax to copy a file (or complete directory) from my local system to the target/destination web host server? I tried this: cp -p /home/joe/filename.pdf rascal.pdf But that does not work. It gives this error message: cp: cannot stat `/home/joe/filename.pdf': No such file or directory --- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
