I am writing this post because so many people are asking me about it.
I will not invent anything new here, i will just make a general tutorial that will fix 80% of your audio/video problems.
Please understand that i do not guarantee 100% success result, because it all depends on the hardware you have.
Before digging in complicated stuff, lets first try to install the Medibuntu packages.
Some of these packages include the libdvdcss package from VideoLAN and the external binary codecs package (commonly known as w32codecs) used by MPlayer and xine.
Lately I’ve been using ubuntu 7.10 for all my projects/daily work.
As a web developer i should have LAMP on my machine and now i would guide you through installing it on yours.
This guide is divided into 3 steps: installing/tesing Apache, PHP and finally MySQL.
Lately I’ve been busy playing around with my Ubuntu Edgy, yesterday i installed and configured compiz.
Anyway long story short, I didn’t find a tutorial that completely worked for me so what the heck I will write one here… maybe it will save you the time that I wasted
I use ubuntu Edgy 6.10 although it should work for Ubuntu Dapper 6.06 LTS or newer.
Here is a screenshot of what’s waiting for you
I will divide my work into 2 steps:
1- Enabling AIGLX:
2- Installing Compiz
