Sorry i have no idea how to do that.  I only used VirtualBox for a few days and never tried doing anything like this, my brother has a laptop with Windows Vista on it so that's what we use to do our IPhone/IPod related things.

I just wish Apple starts supporting Linux at some point 'cause this is like the only thing we are really lacking from Windows and MACs.

Well,maybe Shakka will know.He might use that type of phone.
All I know is Polluted told me to get an MP3phone because they work with Linux well.

Eh?  Did I say that?  I think I just recommended you get a phone that plays MP3s since your phone is pretty old anyway.  You could kill two birds with one stone.  The other advantage is instead of having to sync it with your PC you can just pop the memory card out and load it up with whatever you want.

I'm not sure what MP3 players work best with Linux, but I just hate the way you need to "sync" your ipod.  you know it'll even delete songs off you iPod if you don't have them on your computer anymore when you sync it.  Wtf is that about?  Bah.  I'm getting all riled up just thinking about how stupid iPods are.

Oh.So MP3s don't work well with Linux?I dunno.I still havent bought a new phone yet.But I really need to,this thing is like 9 years old and on it's last legs.

What's a good newer cell phone?With an MP3 thingy type thing that works well with linux?

Yeah i think the syncing option on Apple devices is really lame and having to do almost everything from itunes is bull**** too, i know they want to protect their business and all but damn,it can get quite annoying for us users.

**** yea, i am a beast. I made it work. I am officially the Ubuntu Iphone Master. Im very happy.

Apart from the stupid iPod I think they all should work fine.  Pretty much anything that doesn't rely on its own stupid software to work.  Avoid the iPod and the Zune.

As for a phone, you'd have to ask the guy at the store.  I want an N900, myself, but those won't be out here for a few months and I think they'll be exclusive to Rogers.  The Palm Pre is pretty slick too.

Okay.I will check them out.There are so many new phones out there now.It's hard to know what to buy.I need one soon though,that's all I know....
Maybe I should just get a seperate MP3 player for now and get use to that.I mostly want it for my truck.

Can one of you guys recommend me a good printer for ubuntu that works right out the box. Because im going to buy one tomorrow but i want one that actually works. All i know is stay away from Cannons.

I once was really drunk and at a party took a **** on someones bed.

My HP Photosmart C4200  All-in-one works with no problems yet for printing,but I haven't tried scanning or anything else yet.I am told I should have no problems at all with anything.

Photosmart 2570-series works fine for me, no disc installation was required.

Actually,I have a question about mine.How do I scan stuff and use all the features.So far I have only printed something,and there aren't the other boxes for all the features like scanning and stuff like there is on Windows.

Well my printer works but i haven't tried to scan let me check

I have a question and can't find it on the Ubuntu forums.My Canon camera came with an install disk so I can load the pics onto the puter.How do I do this using Ubuntu,knowing the disks won't work on Ubuntu of course.

Or,am I just screwed and have to use windows for it?

Ubuntu will probably detect that camera without the need of the installation disk.

"Canon camera on ubuntu"

Hmmph!I need to learn how to Google ..........dammit...........

I have some files that don't seem to load on Banshee.They are .avi.
Is there a way to get them to load on Banshee?I have been looking on Google and can't find much to get them to load on Banshee.
And yet,when I double click on the file it plays with movie player.
Also,this isn't with all .avi files,as some do load on Banshee,while these others don't.Why is this?
