FAQs
 
I'm using SuSE Linux 9.2 Professional.
I have 2 windows partitions on hda1 n hda 6.
I need all reading writing as well as executing permissions when logged in as a user.
My current fstab entry is

/dev/hda1 /mnt/win_c vfat auto,users,rw 0 0
/dev/hda6 /mnt/win_d vfat auto,users,rw 0 0

I tried defaults 0 0 in that last column but it doesnt work...i also tried unmask=000 0 0
tht too doesnt work


If i want to run a multiline code for some application ... say "cd azureas" & then "./azureas" how do i make a launcher for the same?


I have ASUS motherboard & some onboard sound card. Everytime i try some different distribution of linux the sound quality isnt good in XMMS or woteva.How do i get windows media player quality in linux?any player that u recommend?

hi there,

afaik, this has nothing to do with the player. if you have your sound system corrected installed the basic players should give quite similiar sound quality. this issue can be dependet of 1.E6 parameters, such as hardware, distro, kernel, blah, blah.
also, describe as "sound quality is not good" is a bit relative. is there sound at all? how? the sound is the same in any player? more input...

there is sound....just a slight farty sound @ da end of the pitch...i dont understand wots wrong...the sound drivers were properly installed during installation itself....the quality of sound isnt pure enough...the way it is in windows media player...wot cud b da reason?i

also somebody tell me abt my other querries

thnx in advance

acid_kewpie 01-09-2005 10:57 AM

feel free to spell properly.... "abt" ????

you should be able to add multiple commands to a launcher, e.g. "cmd1; cmd2"

as for sound... care to expand on "some sound card" ?? what driver are you using? alsa? oss?

and as for fstab, add umask=000 to the options list for each entry

Shantesh 01-09-2005 11:25 AM

sound card is of via...using alsa driver...

Shantesh 01-09-2005 11:47 AM

Code:

/dev/hda1            /mnt/win_c                  vfat            auto,users,rw,unmask=000
/dev/hda6            /mnt/win_d                  vfat            auto,users,rw,unmask=000

This is my fstab acid_kewpie & they arent even mounted now.i need read writing executing permissions when logged in as user.please help

acid_kewpie 01-09-2005 01:12 PM

Shantesh 01-09-2005 01:14 PM

oh i'm so so sorry....thnx it worked....actually i figured it out & changed it...& was just about 2 edit the post...but too l8...newayz thnx a lot

Shantesh 01-09-2005 01:36 PM

i need 2 run 2 commands in a launcher.
the commands are..
1. cd /home/shantesh/crclient/
2. ./crclient -u shantesh

so i wrote these 2 commands in the launcher as "cd /home/shantesh/crclient/; ./crclient -u shantesh"
& also i checked the option for running it in terminal

This connects me to internet ....actually its a client based login wot i'm doing....but it doesnt seem 2 work?
any clue how 2 make this thing work?

acid_kewpie 01-09-2005 01:40 PM

i doubt that needs to be two commands really, does "/home/shantesh/crclient/crclient -u shantesh" not work?

Do not post if you do not have anything constructive to say in the post.
What kind of speaker setup do you have? ALSA is a relatively new project and it doesn't produce sound of the same quality as OSS or the Windows sound drivers although the difference is only really noticable if either you're listening hard or have good quality speakers/headphones. So if the sound just isn't as crisp as you're used to then it's something you're going to have to live with unless you fork out the $40 for full version OSS drivers (can get stereo free, for full surround it's not) but if the sounds seems generally stuffed then perhaps it's something you can fix. Which drivers is alsa using?

Shantesh 01-10-2005 03:13 AM

I have Altec Lansing 2.1 Speaker System
Sound Driver : via82xx
