What does the Police thinks they are handeling they are just students not the protesters of the oposition party even those would have been treated like this.

Accesing NTFS and FAT32 partiton on Ubuntu

Please follow these at your own risk
NTFS and FAT32 are the partitions used by windows to access them from UBUNTU follow these For NTFS just type open terminal and type
sudo fdisk -l

then see which partition is of NTFS (i am taking it as /dev/hda1) then to mount it to /media/windows type
sudo mkdir /media/windows
sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fsab_backup
sudo gedit /etc/fstab

add the following at the end of the file
/dev/hda1 /media/windows ntfs nls=utf8,umask=0222 0 0
save the file then in terminal type
sudo mount -a

For FAT32 partition
repeat the above and just add
/dev/hda1 /media/windows vfat iocharset=utf8,umask=000 0 0
in the file
Make sure u name the folders differently for FAT32 and NTFS and also change the text to be copied accordingly NJOI

Playing mp3 on UBUNTU

It’s usual to find many distributions without MP3 support due to licensing issues. If you have MP3 files and don’t know how to play them do the following:

  1. Open the terminal
  2. Type sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
  3. Remove comments to packages (This is erasing the # characters in lines starting with ##deb)
  4. Save changes and close gedit
  5. Update the packages sudo apt-get update
  6. Install the mulitmedia codecs:
    sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.8-plugins
    sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.8-lame
    sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.8-ffmpeg
    sudo apt-get install w32codecs
    sudo apt-get install libdivx4linux
    sudo apt-get install lame
    sudo apt-get install sox
    sudo apt-get install ffmpeg
    sudo apt-get install mjpegtools
    sudo apt-get install vorbis-tools
    gst-register-0.8

Now you can open a player like Rythmbox or Kaffeine and start listening songs.
