Ora8 User Guide (details)

1. It is best to install Fedora8 in full mode, that is, to select immediate customization when customizing options, and check all options; otherwise, if gcc does not, install the software in the future, compiling software is a very painful task. 2. Before updating Fedora8, it is best to use yum and add the yum update source. The update that comes with the system is extremely slow and impossible. Install yumex (yum graphics front-end): yuminstallyumexrpm-ivhhttp: // rpm.livna.org/l

2. Before updating Fedora8, it is best to use yum and add the yum update source. The update that comes with the system is extremely slow and impossible. Install yumex (yum graphics front-end ):

Yum install yumex

Rpm-ivh http://rpm.livna.org/livna-release-8.rpm

Rpm-ivh http://ftp.freshrpms.net/pub/freshrpms/fedora/linux/8/freshrpms-release/freshrpms-release-1.1-1.fc.noarch.rpmvg

Yum install yum-fastestmirror

Then I started yumex, and the update speed was acceptable. I spent more than 10 hours on 1.1G.

4. pidgin must be updated to 2.4 or above. Otherwise, you cannot log on to QQ. Of course, you should use pidgin in combination with eva. pidgin does not support File Sending and screenshot taking. The group is not as good as eva, however, eva does not support adding friends, which is ideal for combination. It is best to compile eva in the kde environment. I use pidgin to log on to msn and eva to log on to qq.

5. Do not use rpm packages for installation in wine. The compilation and installation effect is better. Although the compilation process is very long (no timing at the time, it is estimated that it will be more than one hour), it is worthwhile.

6. If firefox is not updated, crashes are a regular occurrence and the update may improve.

7. Do not install wine-tools. wine-0.9.56 is not supported, and wine-doors is extremely slow. Of course, if you can install wine-tools, it is good. After all, there are many supported software, the common ones are all available.

8. Local games can be installed but cannot connect to the server with wine support, which is depressing!

9. winesimulation winprogram: The unwise.exe directory under the best execution program directory is better. Other methods seem to be unable to unload it. The program directory is hidden in/home/your username/. wine/drive_c.

Multimedia

Fedora is an open-source software, so there are no copyrighted things. MP3, avi, and other private copyrighted things must be installed on their own. Install the universal player mplayer:

Run yum install mplayer-gui. After installation, set video to X11 and audio to pluse audio, and download four files from http://www.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/releases/codecs/

All-20071007.tar.bz2

Essential-amd64-20071007.tar.bz2 (64-bit amd cpu use this, other CPU won't be down)

Windows-all-20071007.zip

Decompress the windows-essential-20071007.zip to the/usr/lib/codecs directory. There are many supported formats, which are no less than windows systems, mpg mpeg mpv mps m2v m1v mpe mpa avi mp4 m4e rt ra rm rmvb rp rvmov qt aac m4a m4p wav mp2 mp1 mpeg pls xpl smi smil flv ssm sdp aif aiff midi mid rmim acp rpl almost all formats such as 3gp amr awb 3g2 au mp3 m3u cda are available. Libxine and xine-lib-nonfree must be installed for dts support. However, apsaradb. One of its ffmepg commands can convert many formats, which is stronger than windows. The multimedia function in Linux has two words: strong!

When playing a DVD movie, you can also use Subtitles by specifying the language code:

Mplayer dvd: //-slang nl, en

In this way, MPlayer will give priority to Dutch subtitles. if the language is unavailable, English subtitles will be used again.

The following are some useful shortcut keys for MPlayer:

F-when playing a video, switch between full screen and window mode. You can also use the-fs option in the command line to enable MPlayer to start playing in full screen mode.

O-switch the OSD (OnScreen Display) mode when playing a video.

P or Space-Pause/resume playing.

Q or Esc-exit MPlayer. In GUI mode, Esc does not exit and only stops playing.

/And * or 9 and 0-decrease or increase the volume.

M-Mute switch.

T (usually Shift + t)-top switch of the playback window.

B and j-cycle between available subtitles.

X and z-adjust the subtitle delay time.

I (Shift + I)-display the name of the file that plays the movie.

1 and 2-adjust the contrast.

3 and 4-adjust the brightness.

5 and 6-adjust the color.

7 and 8-adjust the saturation.
