Re: Included - the link

 

Vista cannot play DVD's out of the box, (nor XP for that matter)

you need to pay for a DVD decoder or install another program that has the

DVD decoder inside

 

 

this IDIOT OP doesnt know skit about vista and he is trying to say trash

about Ubuntu....

 

Many people dont know how to get a dvd to play in windows if they have no

other decoder installed

by chance before... just because their dvd came with a bundle of apps that

includes

powerdvd or windvd...

 

ignorance..

 

Thats why I luv bashing all these windows vista wannabie lovers..

 

I know more than all of them together about windows and vista..

 

and thats why they cant get away with crap

you are correct.. it seems that Home premium and Ultimate have the dvd

decoder preinstalled

 

http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/download/dvdcodecs.aspx

 

If you are running the Windows Vista Home Basic, Windows Vista Business,

Windows Vista Enterprise, or Windows XP operating system on your computer,

you might need to install a compatible DVD decoder (also known as a MPEG-2

decoder) before continuing with the following activities.

a.. Playing a DVD

b.. Playing a recorded TV show

c.. Playing video files that were encoded with the MPEG-2 codec (.mpeg,

..mpg, and some .avi files)

You may have better luck at guessing Vista's capabilities if you actually

get it.

but that does not mean that vista is anything else than crap

 

The reason for the dvd codec on ultimate and home premium is because it has

Agreed. I downloaded Ubuntu and discovered after the installation failed that

because I was using RAID 0 I needed the alternate install that didn't have

all the wiz-bang features that would do the heavy lifting for me. I tried

researching the issue but could only find arguments between *nix users on

whether you should use Fake Raid or not.

 

By comparison, Vista did install quickly and with just a few mouse clicks.

To be honest, I am disappointed. I wanted to see the cool Ubuntu stuff. Maybe

now that IBM has announced compatibility things will get better.

Yea trying to install Ubuntu (dunno about other distributions) onto a non-

hardware raid array is a pain. I was just playing with that myself with

that the other day and said screw it. In hindsight this actually did me a

favor as one of my raptors (ironically the one with windows on it) died

on me today. With a raid 0 setup that would've sucked.

 

So for the future, I'll probably go look for a real hardware raid

controller and just forget about this half-assed on-board motherboard

crap. A setup like that, for one performs better and secondly definitely

wouldn't be a problem as it just appears as one hard drive to the outside

world and the OS doesn't even know there is a raid volume.

 

In any case, be it linux or windows, that's definitely going to be my

preferred solution for the future.

 

Installing XP onto that raid volume was no fun either (I dual boot both

Ubuntu and XP). The installer coped with the raid volume better than

Ubuntu, gotta give XP credit for that, but I did have to dig up a floppy

drive from like a 10 year old server machine in the office to give the XP

setup the necessary drivers.

I can't be responsible for what happens to others and nor can I be

responsible for what Wiki publishes. I can only say that on dozens of

computers, each with a different hardware configuration, Automatix2 has

served me well. I might add that if you install Automatix2, Ubuntu

immediately comes up with an update so, you see, Ubuntu and Automatix2

are in sync now.

What NoStop is saying is Ubuntu leaves it up to the end user whether or not

to break the law.

 

The basic Linux philosophy.

 

It's also the way Drug Dealers operate.

No I had ultimate right from the start.. but I had used vlite to remove all

media center since I had no use for it..

on my other computers I had busniness that does not include this decoder

 

read here

 

If you are running the Windows Vista Home Basic, Windows Vista Business,

Windows Vista Enterprise, or Windows XP operating system on your computer,

you might need to install a compatible DVD decoder (also known as a MPEG-2

decoder) before continuing with the following activities.

It's ONLY against the law in the USA, although people in the USA who buy

DVDs or want to watch a video, for some reason, think they have a right

to it and install them as well.
