Try changing
/mnt/floppy
to
/media/floppy0
in what iccaros gave you.

thats it. im sick of this. i need someone that could physically be around to show me how to work all this linux stuff. i dont understand anything. i cant even save that dmesg and lspci info to a floppy disk. how much harder could it get? i'm definitly not saying that windows is better but should an operating system be so confusing?
<{POST_SNAPBACK}>
What errors are you getting? Try not to get too frustrated, it can be very hard at first but you'll get the hang of things.
-
Did you?
modprobe ndiswrapper
-
aside from not renaming all the tracks on one
<{POST_SNAPBACK}>
you mean one of the cds failed, or named them incorrecty?
<{POST_SNAPBACK}>
It error'd out about halfway through renaming the tracks, I forgot to copy the error to post.
-
I ripped a few more disc's and aside from not renaming all the tracks on one, it seems to be doing its job.
-
I did have that problem at first, but after emerge cddb-py that cleared up.
-
Do i need all the --with and that stuff? because with and without those it still doesnt work...
<{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Yes, I tested it on my Ubuntu VM. The with-gaim tells it where to install the plugin. Are you getting an error running ./configure? I needed to install gaim-dev to get it to work, try:
sudo apt-get install gaim-dev
before ./configure.
-
go back into the gaim-xfire directory and run:
./configure --with-gaim=/usr/lib/gaim --prefix=/usr
make
make install -
Heres the error on Gentoo64:

Please insert your music cd, and press return to continue.
reading the cd and looking up song data from the CDDB, this may take some time
please wait.....

What is the plugin?

If this is after I had you kill the X server that would explain it, logging out closed the (gui)session but you where still logged in at the term. Normally system>log out>shutdown will shutdown the computer,
but in this case after the server dies type halt or shutdown -t 3 now will do it.

What is the model number of your mother board?

Dont be affraid to break your system, im always trying to find new ways to bork my system up. The biggest mistakes ive made when I first got into 'nix was reinstallng at the drop of a hat. Looking back, im sure all of those situations could have been corrected easily.

It's working in my gentooVM (32 bit), but not on my 64 bit host.
edit: It ripped the album, but error'd out before recoding. I have all tracks as trackx.cdda.wav.
Here is the error:

Most important thing to do is become as comfortable with a terminal as possible. Learn to use man pages and other docs that are already on your system. Again a terminal is your best friend, many problems can be fixed within X, all (or at least close to it) can be just as easily fixed with a shell.
Just play around, you will learn alot.
-
In my opinion, the best thing about it is the learning experience. Being able to learn alittle more everyday far out weighs the price as a selling point.

Can you post the display section of your xog.conf file? To change back to the original:
sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
sudo mv /path/to/backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf
-
sudo apt-get install gcc installs the binaries(no need to compile it). You can also use apt tp install the nvidia drivers apt-get install nvidia-kernels-common then nvidia-glx, but the one's from nvidia.com will (probably) be newer.
-
I think you just need the kernel sources, try this in a terminal:
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.10-5 linux-headers-2.6.10-5-386 build-essential.
You may also need to install gcc (compiler).
-
Kill the X server with ctrl+alt+backspace, log back in and type startx. Changes should then take place.
What web browser are you using?

Sudo is a command that allows you to run certain commands as root.
sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf will open the file as root. Change nano to whatever text editor you want to use.
-
Ubuntu disables root by default, use sudo with your password if prompted. Backup the file before changing it (precaution).

WOOT I DID IT!!!
Thank you all.
Now to ask questions,
1. When i went to chose resolutions i could use i pressed enter and it continued... so now i need to find a way to get the higher reses.
2. Is it possible to do dual view with my monitors?
3. i love linux!
<{POST_SNAPBACK}>
1. You may need to add the modes your display supports in xorg.cof/xf86conf(I forget the actuall name of the file)
2. Xinerama (needs to be enabled in the same config file i believe)
3. Me too

Maybe testdisk will work, I've never used this program but it looks like it may do the trick.

Did you load the module with
if so you should see ndiswrapper listed in the output of
. Also, just adding the driver wont just make the connection work. You need to edit /etc/network/interfaces so it looks like this
Your card may not be recognized as wlan0. Type
on the left it should have lo, and hopefully wlan0 as well.
If your card is recognized run
then
. It was literally as easy as that to get my girlfriends wireless card working on Kubuntu using ndiswrapper. Granted this wont work at all if the problem is your pcmcia socket isnt recognized, but without lspci and dmesg we cant tell if it is or not.
