[Bug 203612] Re: Screens and Graphics menu item in wrong section
It shouldn't be removed and the menu entry should be put back. Many resolution issues have been solved in Hardy with this tool. Also, devs recommended this tool when people complained that dpkg-reconfigure didn't let them change driver and resolution settings in Hardy.

[Bug 191475] Re: [hardy] media tab in file management preferences missing applications
Just done some testing today and come up with a working per-user method, which I recommend now rather than my previous efforts. Sorry about the confusion, the tests could have been better, After following these instructions, you will have two alternate entries in your context menu Open with list and the file properties Open with list, so that you can open VLC with the standard command. To change the default DVD player in Hardy to VLC, open the Terminal and copy and paste this command into it: gksudo gedit /etc/gnome/defaults.list Press ctrl+f and search for x-content/video, then change the totem.desktop entries to vlc.desktop. Close and save. Next, right-click on Applications in the top panel and select Edit Menus to open the default menu editor. Navage down to Sound Video in the left pane, select it, then right-click on VLC media player in the right pane, select Properties and change the launch command from wxvlc %F to: vlc --vout-filter deinterlace --deinterlace-mode blend --volume 512 --fullscreen %m Close the VLC properties dialog and exit the menu editor. Finally, navigate to PlacesHomeEditPreferencesMediaDVD Video and select VLC.

[Bug 191475] Re: [hardy] media tab in file management preferences missing applications
Kivech, VLC wouldn't autoplay with the current launch command even if it was added to the list, so we just need to wait for a return of the ability to launch by command string. Please ignore the workaround I posted above, as the per-user method is a little bit tricky compared with the following system-wide approach: First of all, if you followed my other crappy method, open the Terminal and delete that file in ~/.local/share/applications, as it's not needed with the system-wide approach; rm ~/.local/share/applications/vlc.desktop Keep the Terminal open and copy and paste this command into it: gksudo gedit /etc/gnome/defaults.list Change the line x-content/video-dvd=totem.desktop to x-content/video-dvd=vlc.desktop. Close and save. Note: You need to repeat the following steps each time VLC is updated. Next, edit the following two files by pressing alt+f2, typing your password and then by navigating to both /usr/share/applications/vlc.desktop and /usr/share/app-install/desktop/vlc.desktop. Right-click on them and select Properties in the context menu, then replace the exec=vlc %U launch command of both files to: exec=vlc --vout-filter deinterlace --deinterlace-mode blend --volume 512 %m Close and save both files. Finally, navigate to NautilusEditPreferencesMediaDVD Video, select VLC and then reboot or logout before you insert a DVD.

[Bug 191475] Re: [hardy] media tab in file management preferences missing applications
Sebastien, Thanks for the clarification. I would love to help add the feature, but I have no experience in writing code (only left Windows behind a year ago). I can see this kind of feature will be added at some point and I respect the fact that the devs have much work to do. I also respect the fact that it's not an urgent matter.

[Bug 191475] Re: [hardy] media tab in file management preferences missing applications
Possible workaround: I've modified my instructions for Hardy users by taking some advice given on Launchpad. I'm not gonna add it to my how-to until I know how well it works. Tell me if this works for you: Copy and paste this into the Terminal: sudo cp /usr/share/applications/vlc.desktop ~/.local/share/applications/vlc.desktop Go to your home folder, then click on View in the file browser (Nautilus) and select the Show Hidden Files option. Now, find the folder .local in your home folder, open it and then open the folders share and applications. Now, find and right-click on vlc.desktop and navigave to PropertiesLauncherCommand. Change the command to: vlc --vout-filter deinterlace --deinterlace-mode blend --volume 512 --fullscreen %m Now, navigate to EditPreferencesMediaDVD Video and select VLC. Delete --fullscreen if you have problems with it launching in fullscreen, Nathan -- [hardy] media tab in file management preferences missing applications https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/191475 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Team, which is subscribed to amarok in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs

Am I right in thinking that xrandr has replaced dpkg-reconfigure as a way to manually configure graphics devices in text-mode?

[Bug 191475] Re: [hardy] media tab in file management preferences missing applications
I can tell from what I've read that this isn't a Nautilus bug as such, but why not have the ability to choose an application manually? Or use a special command? I want to be able to use this command for playing DVDs in Hardy: vlc --vout-filter deinterlace --deinterlace-mode blend --volume 512 --fullscreen %m It works great in Gutsy and I want to do it in Hardy without having to hack at things. I want to help others use the above command and keep it as simple as possible for them.
