First and foremost, there are many many many linux distributions that are better than what you have now. It is only a matter of diving in and going the whole 9 yards. To start off, try Fedora or the like. They are very user friendly and you’ll really enjoy yourself.

In order to play windows media files on a non-windows machine you’ll need a player and then the proper codecs for decoding and reading the files.

There are two options that have worked for me. I’ve had good experience using MPlayer on both Fedora (Core 4) and Gentoo. MPlayer has a nice list of supported input formats and runs well. Another good one is VLC, it has worked for me as well.

hi, Im RHCE(red hat certified engg.) . i would suggests u to choose RedhatLinux 4.0 or Fedora Core 5 which have good functionality to do ur work. There are so many different falvours also available of linux such as mandrake, suse, ubtu, lindows, solaris 10 etc.

for playing wmv file u can use Mplayer, Vlc player,XMMS or Xine they all play wmv format files.

I’m not great with linux, but i would think the current version of Red Hat would probably be considered the best.
Last I knew of, it was Fedora Core.
I think it already comes with software to play .WMVs
Check out http://www.redhat.com/
Good luck!

Try to burn the iso from this program and see if this helps the problem. This is a free program.

if you don’t want to partition your hard drive, and delete winxp or whatever you have, get a live cd. if you want to partition, get suse linux. (search it)

Did the OS makers give any mention of bootable floppy images? Try that.

try burning it with easyiso, it’s a freeware program, type easyiso in on google, burn with that program. Also, it’s better to run live cds on cd-r media, not rw.

Comment on Ubuntu linux resolution problem, can you help? by Cory C.

Cory C. — Thu, 31 Dec 2009 22:29:22 +0000

i have various types of linux and to be honest there is a new linux out called “XGL” which is “more advanced than vista” and will give you a larger variety of options to choose from.

athere is an installet cd you download then you download another cd with the actual O.S. which is so large is understandable why it is so advanced and has more options.

i hope this helps in any way possible.
