Bruno Posted January 23, 2005 Share Posted January 23, 2005 Have you tried it in KDE ??Does it work with mp3 streams ? ( I use XMMS for mp3 streams and paste the URL from shoutcast ) Bruno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikerekes Posted January 23, 2005 Share Posted January 23, 2005 gauchoI few answers to your questions: for file transfer, I always use gftp. It is not on the pclos8 livecd, but still available in the repositories. I know a lots of ppl. had problems with it, but it always worked for me, and i have fond memories of the original windows version (cuteftp).For p2p (limewire is not ftp but p2p) have you tried Apollon? it is nice, just heavy on java, after a while you have to reboot, java leaks memory faster then my car leaks oil.with streamtunner it is not really using the sound, in my machine it brings up xmms, and lets xmms play the music I am using the live365 and the shoutcast plugins.Ivan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruno Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 Hi GauchoA little note about the mouse: I hardly ever (double)click with the left mouse button, 95% the time I do however right-click and choose from the context menu that pops up. Then you carefully select with what prog you want to open that file or link . . . and that is sometimes the default for that file, but most of the time a prog that handles that file/link the best. ( For example: I like Xpdf for pdf files, but the default is kghostview that suits small pdf files, larger files do better in Xpdf )In a browser I use the middle button ( wheel ) to open links in a tab, but also there the context menu you get from a right-click gives the most options. Specially for downloading a file or link the context menu works better then just clicking on it.The remaining 5% I do use the left button is for icons on the taskbar and items in the start-menu ;)Glad you got the Net_Applet back up . . . . but the ~/.kde/share/config/knotifyrc is only for system notifications in KDE :PB) BrunoPS: If you want me to send you my XMMS playlist as an example, let me know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gauchoperezoso Posted January 24, 2005 Author Share Posted January 24, 2005 oh thanks Bruno but i think ill just create my own XMMS playlist.i know how to get the urls so this time i may just be able to do without your help .as for the sound problem in gnome,you know what might be the reason for this not working?i have run out of ideas to be honest,not that i had a lot of them in the first place Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruno Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 I have no idea about the way Gnome handles sound . . .but what you can do is run the sound-check-script and post the output on the forum.( I would want you to run the script once in Gnome and once in KDE )Here is the script and the instructions on how to run it:SoundCheck Script( It is revision 8 specially suited to the new PCLos, last update was yesterday ) Bruno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
