PC Speaker Talk

pmistry
Need some opinions on this: I have always debated whether or not 4. 1 or 5. 1. or 6. 1 and even 7. 1 speakers are worth setting up or not. My desktop space is limited and my current 4. 1 setup is awful, its the Altec Lansing ACS54 4.

MP3 Burner

Laghail
Hello there, I'm fair new to Linux and operating with Redhat 9. I was recommended to use Video Lan Client for media and I was pleased with its preformence in windows. After switching over (cause: general disgust with the above mentioned virus), I've been trying to get a working MP3 player working.

System clock (Clock 2.4.2)

cbrooker27
I have only been running linux for about a month, and until this week everything was great. Now, my system clock (in the tray) will only show GMT time. If I open the Adjust date and time dialog, it shows the proper time GMT-4 for EDT.

Driver installation from hell

Koba
Hello everyone. See what I mean? An nightmare if there ever was one but I am going to let it defeat me. I can't expect anyone to go through all that so I will break my questions into small steps. I've had a go but it didn't work.

In The Clear

jimf43
Some may have noticed that I wasn't posting for a while. Truth is, I was getting real burnt out on supporting newbys who insisted on getting in over their heads with distros that had less than satisfactory hardware support and installation.

dysfunctional bootloader

skorchio
Evening all, My system runs XP pro and Mandrake 9. 1, dualboot with the grub bootloader. I recently used Partition magic to create a new partition (logical) for windows data on my drive. It was doing its thing, so I left the machine to its devices.
