Ok I'm getting there.

I have managed to get my printer to work, and I have got g++ and gcc working! Yay.

Before I try and get my graphics card working,how do I burn cds?

Thanx

Ubuntu - thats gnome, right?

You should be able to hit computer and choose Places then select CD/DVD Burning.

As jbennet says nautilus is fine for burning files. For burning ISOs and other stuff:

sudo apt-get install gnomebaker

You should already have Serpentine installed (for burning audio cds)

If gnomebaker doesn't float your boat you may wanna try K3B (Its KDE so apt will have to install quite a few other libraries on your machine to use it, but its a bit fancier than gnomebaker).

If you're on Feisty and have an nVidia or ATi card there's a utility to install the restricted drivers automagically. If you're on something older than Feisty I'd recommend you upgrade/reinstall - its worth it!

I like gnomebaker. The version of K3B on ubuntu doesnt integrate very will with gnome.

And yeah, to get the wma codecs and ati drivers etc.... you can either upgrade to Feisty or you can use something like EasyUbuntu or Automatix (getting feisty and doing it that way is easier though)

Thanx guys I didn't even notice that option. Erm does feisty come with a kde flavour? Cos I like ubuntu but I prefer kde over gnome.

I might put the upgrade on hold because I've got a few things working, and I don't wanna reinstall feisty and start all over again.

Yup.

Of course, you can always manually install window managers; you're not limited to the Ubuntu branch you choose.

You dont need to do that.

Just either install Kubuntu (i dont like it myself) or from ubuntu use Synaptic to install KDE.

Following the advice of pty I installed fiesty for kbuntu. Very nice.

And now I've got my mp3s and mpegs to work. Yay!

I went to the konsole I typed:

sudo aptitude install libxine-extracodecs

But I'm having problems playing my dvds. I installed VLC player but when I play the dvd the image all patchy? How do I fix this please help.
