bzbI'm trying to modify things so that when I click on an audio/video file, the console version of mplayer will be invoked to open the file instead of the gnome-mplayer.08:44
bzbThe problem is that when an audio/video file contains spaces or non-english characters, the console mplayer just closes and does nothing.08:44
bzbMore details at http://pastebin.com/TQxanMUC08:44
bzbI don't know if this problem also applies to ubuntu?08:47
bioterrorhmmm08:51
bioterrorwhen press mouse button #2 on a video file08:51
bioterrorand you choose properties08:51
bioterroryou should be able to change gnome-mplayer to just plain mplayer08:52
bioterrorhttp://ricecows.org/mplayer.desktop that's how my mplayer.desktop looks like08:53

silverarrow;-)09:04
bioterrorsilverarrow, I've mostly used "xfburn"09:04
silverarrowdiskutility or reboot is the only thing that allows to eject cd09:04
silverarrowxfburn crashes instantly here09:04
silverarrowluckily brassero behaves09:05
silverarrowat the moment F12 does the same as a double finger click09:36
silverarrowit should eject cd09:36
