thanks my ubuntu did all that it is just that this problem just started I will check mint out for sure though as I run windows before and got tired of the expense of running the os. in five years I have not had one crash, a few freeze ups. and my win XP had to be reloaded or rebuilt numerous times and windows is gone in my book. My wife wants windows on her computer with wireless. I have no problems viewing tube services as you tube. I can't share on a Belkin network so thats a plus for me in mint. The "you must be root" error will be improved in mint matbe. As it is hard to configure my system in ubuntu. without a fuss! Charles

To: charlesdean2...@yahoo.com Date: Sunday, March 22, 2009, 12:13 AM Charles, I have since moved from Ubuntu to Mint because of a few lingering issues that I got tired of trying to fix. If you want an OS that works 99% out of the box I would try Mint. I know this isn't a fix as much as it is a work around but Mint is built on Ubuntu and they have pretty much set up everything you need for a fully functional OS. In most cases the wireless drivers work right off the bat and you don't have to try to load windows wireless drivers. If you do have to load windows drivers they have a tool setup already for you so you just get the .ini file for your wireless card and you are off to the races. One of the coolest things is that you can play DVDs without having to load additional plugins or codecs and java is already loaded. You can go straight to Youtube without having to load a single thing. http://www.linuxmint.com/download.html Hope this helps. -- Totem video player keeps playing in slow motion. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290098 You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber of the bug. -- Totem video player keeps playing in slow motion. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290098 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
