    Play MPEG-4 movie with JMF?

    Hi all, has anyone ever succeeded in playing an mpeg-4 movie with JMF? If so, I would appreciate a few pointers. Thanks.

    Creating A DataSource From A Stream

    I am interested in knowing how to construct a processor from a ByteBufferDataSource as well. It works fine with a Player, and the video played fine. However when I put my buffer into a Processor to be written out to a DataSink, I get the NoProcessorFound error. Also, how can I transmit both...

    Installation linux which version is best?

    Need to play, yes, same here. But I can't afford to play at home, I only have 1 computer. I play at work, and that's the reason why I'm so behind. It's not so often that I get a chance to install Gnome2 on OBSD, or fluxbox on RedHat 9 (fluxbox kicks ass by the way, and it's so small). I had to...

    it's a FREE version. I've been using it for more than a month now and it still work. Said there it's a "complementary" version. Who cares, it won't expire.

    Installation linux which version is best?

    Every Linux OS out there is free. One should not have to pay for the cd. What you pay for, is the official support of the OS. There are basically 3 levels of Linux (that I know of). Mandrake for beginner, Redhat for the intermediate, and Debian/Slackware for the advanced. Mandrake is comparable...

    How to...

    get the FREE db2 v8.1 file from the IBM website (~ 500MB). Install it then play around with it. I suggest you learn SQL first, although that should only take you at most a week. The experience is best if done using unix, in my opinion. Try some programming with those databases too, like using...

    Linux Installation

    Hehe good job figuring that out dude. I always forget to switch to binary mode on my ftp client too, and could never retrace back to that step. Luckily I almost always use http download so I never had much trouble. Tell me how the install goes man.

    Linux Installation

    Ok, the bootdisk.img i burned was a separate file I got from a redhat ftp site. You might want to try that. Make sure you supply the absolute path to the file when using ntrw. I am at home now, using my XP, and I'm writing the file to a floppy. Nothing happened, no error. My guess would be bad...

    Linux Installation

    oh no... you can use it for any file. Dude, I'm writing the disk right now using it. I'm using win2000 though so that might be the discrepancy.. but I imagine this could work under XP also since it's essentially NT. Stupid question: did you put both ntrw.exe and bootdisk.img in the same folder...

    Linux Licensing

    There are no licensing in Linux. Use it on as many boxes as you want to, anytime, anywhere, anyhow.

    Linux Installation

    ntrw.exe is a program i got from somewhere.. search for it on google and you'll get it. And no there was no error message for me when i burn. And ya you're right under windows machine the cd only have "Red Hat Linux_i3" but on my Redhat box it said "Red Hat Linux i386 9". Try...

    Linux Installation

    I don't think the name matter much, it's the content that's important. I just burned the cds, made a boot disk using boot.img and ntrw.exe, boot the pc with the floppy since my pc can't boot from cd, and that's it. The name on my cd is "Red Hat i386 9". Can you install windows or any...

    Linux Installation

    What file did you download? The SRPMS or the i386? I used the i386 files. Anyways here's an installation docs http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-7.1-Manual/install-guide/s1-steps-install-cdrom.html try it. And rawrite has to be run under msdos prompt i think.

    Linux Installation

    I am talking about windows based systems. You burn the iso from Nero running on Windows. Then assuming you have a free machine that you want to install RedHat on, just put the cd in and boom. If you're talking about ntrw.ext and rawrite, these runs under Windows too. ntrw.exe runs in the dos...

    Linux Installation

    i used nero, it works fine. As I said, use the "burn image" thing found under File (or other menus, you'll find it). And rawrite should work. If not, you can use the ntrw.exe program (in dos though) to make a linux boot floppy. Well you shouldn't need the floppy if you burned the iso...

    Linux Installation

    you'll see lots of files, like the READMEs and stuff, and folders. How did you burn your iso? did you just burn that file onto a cd as raw data? you have to burn it using the "burn image" feature.

    Yo, try booting from a floppy see if it changes anything.

    Crontab Intro

    This is the built-in automation tool for users of OpenBSD to set up task scheduling. Each user can have a separate crontab that holds several cronjobs to be executed periodically by a cron daemon. Synopsis: $ crontab [-u (for user)] [-e (edit) | -l (list) | -r (remove)] Synopsis of a...

    From scratch - over FTP

    1. Download ntrw.exe at ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/3.3/tools/ntrw.exe. This program is needed to write the boot disk in BSD format. 2. Download the file ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/3.3/i386/floppy33.fs. In command prompt, write the file floppy33.fs to a floppy disk using command...
