    Use mplayer to decode it and lame to encode it:

  4. Re:Uninstall first please by tajmorton · · Score: 5, Informative · on Mozilla Firefox 1.02 Released

    Really? Mine worked fine with just installing right over 1.0.1 with Windows XP. Under Linux...no go (of course).
    However, Autopackage works great (if you've have FF installed from Autopackage): http://www.wildgardenseed.com/Taj/autopackage/fire fox-1.0.2.x86.package
    (BTW, if you do try this Autopackage, we'd love some feedback on how it works--taj at wildgardenseed dot com).

  5. Re:Adblock and Firefox (Mirror) by tajmorton · · Score: 1 · on The Return Of The Pop-Up Ad

    Since /. won't let me post the filter here, and the bandwidth limit has been exceeded on the Geocities page, I've mirrored it (Courtesy of Google Cache): http://www.wildgardenseed.com/Taj/adblock-filter.t xt

    I hope they don't mind...

  6. Re:The Desktop by tajmorton · · Score: 5, Interesting · on Will Open Source Solaris Kill Linux?

    First off, if Linus picks a GUI, he's going to piss off half the users of Linux, who will in turn, fork Linux. I'm not sure what you mean "starts up a desktop linux fork". What's wrong the the kernel going to the desktop? The kernel is *not* the problem, the problem is the desktop (KDE/Gnome/Whatever), and hardware detection (see this for an idea), and whatever else is keeping Linux from the desktop (lack of programs?). Whatever it is, it's not the kernel (if you ask me...).

  7. Re:no for both by tajmorton · · Score: 1 · on eWeek Reviews Gnome 2.8 And KDE 3.3

    Yup, I agree. See my post...
