Fair or not its not a prob..Just try your ubuntu works wiv other normal keyboard 1st..as oshiri said, could be your keyboard, could be your bios setting...

it;s router modem... i did some changes to my resolv.conf file by changing the nameserver to 202.188.0.133 and 202.188.1.5, yet problems still the same.

i even try to edit etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf file.... by adding
interface "eth0" {
supersede domain-name-servers 202.188.0.133, 202.188.1.5, 127.0.0.1;
{
doesn't work

babymilo
Paste your /etc/network/interfaces please.......

oshiri.. is this what u wan?

cclooi@kecikmiao:/etc/network$ cat interfaces
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

auto eth1
iface eth1 inet dhcp

auto eth2
iface eth2 inet dhcp

auto ath0
iface ath0 inet dhcp

auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp

Yes.
So many networkcard? Please check using ifconfig or lspci and iwconfig.

Try use static ip rather than dhcp.
If you use dhcp, DNS will be forwarded by your router to your pc. That is why your nameserver in /etc/resolv.conf always changes.
You can use dhcp if you set DNS in your router similar to your ISP.
ex: streamyx
202.188.0.133
202.188.1.5

In order to use static ip, edit /etc/network/interfaces something like this.
ex:
Your router ip is = 192.168.1.1 (this is your gateway)
and the networkcard connected to that router is = eth0




Save and restart networking: # /etc/init.d/networking restart

oshiri.... thx loads.... hooray, it;s working =)

And there's always the good "changing write permissions to the resolv.conf file" trick... Worked for me last time, even while using DCHP... But as problem solved already (and Static IP is also useful for port fowarding), lets just leave it at that...

Hello guys

3-week old uBuntu user here, and I still can't figure out one thing (call me a noob, I'm really one - but I'm familiar with linux systems, just don't have enough exp hehe)

Here's my issue:

I've been trying to play .mkv (Matroska) files on my uBuntu (Edgy 32 bit). But heres the problem:

1) If using Totem-Xine, the file will play, but no subtitles, bad performance (jerking sometimes)

2) If using mplayer, it will play, got subtitles, but will crash when I drag the slider bar

3) Using VLC, also similar to mplayer.

I've tried everything from recompiling to reinstalling, but none works Can someone point me the right way? Thank you!

try xine-ui... i use it, everything go fine....

Well, as Totem completely refuses to play my stuff at all (some sorta confilct with AIGLX+Beryl), I'm playing all my stuff, (.MKV and .OGM included) through KDE's Kaffeine. No issues as of yet.

Which reminds me, are you running XGL or AIGLX?

I'm using nVidia's Beta Driver (it comes with built-in XGL) + Beryl. No issues with all player, except this weird MKV problem above.

ANyways, I managed to solve the problem, I installed mplayer from source and now I don't have to worry about using any other player MKV, OGM and all formats works flawlessly

can ubuntu support bitcomet?
thinking of trying it out on my old rig

thanks

I'm not sure about that, but I did try to run uTorrent via Wine on ubuntu and it worked flawlessly. Even the uPnP forwarding works!

cool thanks man
will try it out

you want the ubuntu cd. see me in ampang park

Have you tried with another CD? I get that last time before even installing any Linux on my PC. I tested the CD i burned and it has errors. So I burned another one and make sure there's no errors, and the installation went well.

i try my 6.06 cd still can..
but 6.10 burn cd.. cannot.. hmmm do u think the file i download from ubuntu site corrupted?

I just recently downloaded Ubuntu, and ask my friend to burn it into a CD.
I tried booting it, it manages to load. But I'd use some other versions before, it'll show the HDD contents.

Is it just me or Ubuntu won't show them?

Or if it will can someone teach me how?

Newbie in linux here...

Thanks.

the Ubuntu load till where? Did you get any GUI?
