Sound problems in Xine
by Jim
FC10/KDE-4.2 xine-0.99.5-5.fc10.x86_64
To get sound working in Xine you have to "Show Controls" in Xine and
increase volume to level you want.
Each time you open Xine the volume is set to lowest setting, it won't
hold it's last setting.

nVidia vs. ATI graphics card for fedora
by Globe Trotter
Hi,
I am ordering a souped-up workstation and I was wondering which graphics card is preferable for running fedora:
a 256 MB PCIe x16 nVidia NVS 290, Dual Monitor capable
or
a
ATI Fire GL V3600 256MB, Dual Monitor DVI Capable ATI3600
What would you suggest? I do not need huge 3-d acceleration and stuff, but want it to work well.
Please let me know if I should provide more information.
Best wishes,
Trotter

F9: Eclipse plug: Subversive SVN does not work?
by Dan Thurman
I have checked out my svn installation and I am able
to access it via my webpage, and then proceeded to
add the URI to the Eclipse SVN Repository plugin
(not Team), and was left with this error:
=========================================
SVN: '0x00400006: Validate Repository Location' operation finished with
error: Selected SVN connector library is not available or cannot be loaded.
If you selected native JavaHL connector, please check if binaries are
available or install and select pure Java Subversion connector from the
plug-in connectors update site.
If connectors already installed then you can change the selected one at:
Window->Preferences->Team->SVN->SVN Client.
Selected SVN connector library is not available or cannot be loaded.

How can I resolve this problem?

Virtualization for Beginner
by das
Hello Friends
As a member of a local linux group called GLT, a few different distros
of GNU-Linux we have to handle. One or two versions of each Fedora,
Ubuntu, and OpenSuse.
Earlier, I installed more than one Linux on the HD just for getting
some suggestion when someone is in problem. Gradually, due to the UUID
and all this is becoming problemsome. One brute way out is to rewrite
'fstab' with device-names in place of UUID-s. But people say these
days a lot of applications read the UUID-s, so this may get
problemsome.
So, after some friends suggested, I now want to go into
virtualization. And I know nothing. I have a really huge amount of HD
space, and 4GB memory. And my CPU has the virtualization flags. I am
myself using Fedora 11 Beta and I want to have virtual installations
of Ubuntu and OpenSuse on my system.
Can you people please suggest me from where to start, some good
documentation, and not too technical. We are a Linux-User group,
mainly teachers in profession.
Thanking You

Blackberry and Virtualization
by Jerry Feldman
I would like to be able to sync my blackberry Curve through
virtualization. Both Virtualbox and KVM/QEMU handle USB, and both
recognize my blackberry device as a storage device. But, I have not been
able to get either to use the blackberry desktop to sync. With KVM/QEMU,
one needs to initiate from the command line to recognize the USB device,
but otherwise the guest OS does recognize the device. I do use Barry to
back up my blackberry on F10.

Re: Virtualization for Beginner
by Andre Robatino
> I upgraded from 2.1 to 2.2 with zero problems. Settings are migrated
to the new version.
I know that upgrading works fine (usually), since I've upgraded through
several versions to the latest closed-source version 2.2.2. My question
was concerning DOWNgrading to the lower-numbered open-source version
2.1.4. Of course, one way to handle it would be to freeze at a given
closed-source version, and wait a few weeks/months for the open-source
version to catch up, then switch.
