Just discovered this relatively new application.

"PyTube is a GUI for the use of downloading YouTube videos and convert

Nice simple interface and converts to more pleasant formats like
ogg/theora/vorbis.

I got this problem when I used OpenSuse10 in my laptop. When I change to
Ubuntu Feisty (Now I use Gutsy) I never have this problem any more.
The setting that I use is:

Hi there,
I've had a play with 7.10 and it looks very good indeed; a lot of hard
work has gone into creating it and it works very well indeed.
There seems to be a problem though for XP users who download the CD and
attempt to install it on an external USB device, either a disk or a

Hi,
some of you might not be aware of the Ubuntu 'answer support tracker',
its essentially a place where you can go to post a question or 'support

Currently the best money / performance ratios go to either the GeForce
8600GTS 320mb or the Radeon X1950XT. Both will perform well with UT3
running at 1280 at max settings. I myself plan on investing in an
8600GTS very soon :o)
Hope that helps, check out www.custompc.com for some good reviews

Mmmm. I've got an Edimax EW-7108PCG, which I think also uses the 2500
chipset, unlike the newer cards.

Yeah that looks similar to the probs I have with my card, I posted in

That's where I got the current one! It's an RAlink with the RT2500 chip

The recommendation in various places is for RAlink chipset devices
because they have open sourced their drivers, but the drivers on Gutsy
do not work very well and give very poor throug
