That makes sense. Like I said, vlc doesn't just pick up the linux default hardware settings, it has its own settings. edit: It would be great if we could get this working with the new *.xspf xlm looking playlist and not the old channel.conf and have a simple vlc based gtkdialog style DVR. http://sm...

I don't know why. The only thing I can think of is that vlc does set it's audio device independently of the rest of linux (It can anyway). So try going to the menu under "audio-audio device" and picking different choices. 2nd idea Maybe try a fresh save file with the TV dongle attached. I...

So it's working on one computer but not on another? Or it works one place but not out in the garage? Sorry, let me clarify: it worked on the laptop. I have another computer, a PC, in the garage, xenialpup64. I took it out there and plugged it in, checked firmware, same, scanned, like before. Have s...

Well, we tried it in the garage, only had to install VLC and w-scan, ran it, runs great setting up list, but when I run VLC the audio is only static, tch-tch-tch over and over, of varying volumes, even though the picture is as clear as the attached picture. I ran vlc on just a movie file, sounds gre...

Open vlc. Choose "view-playlist" Drag the playlist into the right hand pane. You can also open rox filer, right click on the playlist, choose "run as" and then set it to open in vlc. Then you should be able to just click on the playlist to load it. And that did it! I went to /ro...

Ok, I have the device. I checked the firmware to download it and I already have those two firmware items installed. I saw on the link for the driver that it said past a certain kernel the driver came with it, So I tried the aforementioned w_scan command and it came back: w_scan command not found We ...

Ok, I ordered the thing for the deal! I'll post more once I've got more information! You're all awesome!

I have a dell laptop, xenialpup, and an old rf modulator and an antenna. I there a way to watch tv on this laptop? Need a usb tuner? What should I order (gotta be cheap). Or is there another way? Does this laptop have capacity I don't know about? You all have huge brains, help a man in quarantine ha...

Hi steve_s, Not sure what you did to install portable-wine, or uninstall it. The installation instructions (in short) were download the tar.gz, unpack it, right-click the resulting folder and select "register" [or, if 'register' didn't appear when the folder was right-clicked, select Look...

Howdy! Tried the portable, wasn't for me, couldn't get it to work, wanted to load a standard wine sfs, uninstalled (searched and deleted) the portable as well as I know how, ran sfs_load and loaded the new wine sfs after a reboot. Then I ran winecfg And I still get wine: chdir to /mnt/home/wine-port...

Now!

go to hidden file -> /root/.bashrc and open it in geany and look for this line : PS1="\[\e]2;\w\a\e[34m\]$USER\\$ \[\e[0m\]" now if one would change the '34m' to '32m' "root" will be green! there is a chart somewhere that details the number value that corresponds to the color an...

hello steve_s I went and copied the JWM config files from the 32 bit version over to BIonic64 and replaced or called from the 64's jwm config files with the 32 bit version jwm files. instant 32 bit desktop on the 64..... so I had the minimal desktop icon layout and the 32 bit versions task bar floa...

There is a universal setting I'm missing:
Why is every type of terminal emulator I open have the words:
root #
and they are blue.

Why blue? where is that set at?

Sure is.

Nice to see you back steve_s.

Chris.

Thanks! Appreciated!

Oh wow, there's a freaking switch...ugh..ok, we're in business! bigpup the man!

I used to use mrxvt on 32bit but I can't get it to run here, elf command errors. If you try using 32bit software in Bionicpup64 8.0 To support 32bit software need to load the 32bit compatibility sfs using Quickpet->Useful With urxvtcontrol transparency on. Works for me in the urxvt terminal. But ho...

Current look

Still no transparency on terminals. Even the ones that show transparency as an option don't show a change in opacity when adjusted, they just get darker or lighter. I've used urxvt, gnome-terminal, and xfce4-terminal, no dice. I used to use mrxvt on 32bit but I can't get it to run here, elf command ...

Thx bigpup! Will check it!

And Mike, yep, love it! And I'm all about the look too, thx!
