I have little experience with Linux and I'm trying to make some configurations.
I have Ubuntu 10.10, a NVidia GTX 295 graphics card and 2 monitors that I'm trying to get them mirrored.
I installed the restricted drivers but that didn't solve the problem. 

Then I installed the drivers from nvidia but that also didn't solve the problem.
Can anyone help?

I have a flat-Screen TV which is connected to my Computer via HDMI. Monitor and TV are configured as separate X-screens. I want to have the VLC interface on my monitor. Can you please tell me the solution of it?

Not long time ago I installed linux's Fedora os on my netbook Samsung n150, everything was okay but the wireless card, i found drivers for my "atheros" wireless card and installed them successfully on my np150 but it says that it's disabled by the administrator, I am the administrator and I've never disabled it, so I don't really know anything about how to make it "enabled" so i can use it. 

I am using Ubuntu Linux and when i insert a DVD movie into my DVD-ROM and select play, it does not play. I also downloaded a few MP3 songs and when i tried to play them, they did not work either. I used different players and attempted to play them, but they would not work.

Thank you very much for your help

Hi experts,

I am using a Sony Vaio VGN-FE890 laptop running Arch Linux kernel 2.6.30-ARCH.

Inserting a CD into the optical drive makes it spin for a bit, then do nothing. Running dmesg returns the following:

Error:

Unable to mount UDF Volume

Error mounting: mount: block device/dev/sr0 is write-

protected, mounting read-only

mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/

sr0,

Missing codepage or helper program, or other error

In some cases useful info is found in syslog-try

dmesg tail or so

Hello techyv,

I have just installed an application and created a launcher by right-click an item in the menu and then select "Add this launcher to desktop". The resulting launcher displays an icon that looks like it is for a text file.

When I click on it, I get this error message:

Error:

Untrusted application launcher

The application launcher “linux.desktop” has not been marked as trusted. If you do not know the source of this file, launching it may be unsafe.

Please advice as to what should I do, in order to sort out this error.

Thanks in advance.
