Well very good of you Subcareer you know your tips are very good to people that is giving out their mail add to someone that'll submit their add to mailing list because have not seen anybody dropped by 2 say thanks for the precious handon. why mailing them when you can always put the stuffs in your thread for others that are seeking 2 benefit from your so called tutorial. Check this guy in question profile and you'll see that he is not even a regular in the computer section so what has he got 2 offer let him go 2 the romance, religion etc so you see what i mean.  

Or you can alternatively do it this way just lug in your
device and windoze should
recognise is as removable disk open it by double clicking it and drag any mp3 song of your choice into the
removable disk & if you use linux and have amorak cos it can copy in & off ipod. Cheerio

Hello Adewale i lost my celtel line and have not gotten around retrieving the line and am using glo for the time being so this is the nos 08050764126 am very busy and have not gotten the time for browsing since those seize the internet connection so hit me back through my mail or text messages . how everybody for nairaland now? Peace and cheerio

Kubuntu, Otigba? no way i was at the place yesterday looked out but did not see anything like that and i was even thinking of coming 2 sell one 4 them cos i have 5 Ubuntu cds and just only one Kubuntu cd which i can burn 4 you but the problem is how you'll pick it up you cos i live at sango. Cheerio

Thanks Fisayo 4 the tips but what really happen is that i use Kubuntu and don't know if the command line is the same as in can be used also in Kubuntu  if no then i'll have 2 install Ubuntu on the Kubuntu partition, have very bad light current but hope i finish everything 2morrow and for the sake of other Ubuntu user why not put these Ubuntu related solution in the Ubuntu thread and if you feel comfortable here fine. God will bless you immensely. Adewale how you dey now?. Feeling down and low but will holla you later. Cheerio

Adewale top of the day 2 you brotherman its sheer non sense for me 2 now revert 2 SP1 as you said and moreover They have the same file structure except the security fix and media player 9 in SP2 there's no much different between the 2. You use KDE now abi and have you been able 2 connect with your phone on linux before you resolve 2 your phone browser.                                                       Fisayo hmmm kia kia b4 person finish reading your post you dey offline   hey thanks 4 raising my hope concerning browsing on my system. I quite agree with Fisayo what happen is that the internet setting is very stable than wap cos it never gives you all the error that wap is prone like connection timed out, 404 server error, 504 error, etc which you'll never notice if you are using internet setting. Cheerio

From the home page of gsmarena.com you see a place where They write quick phone search in case you didn't see it you can google 4 it. thanks

My very strong point as an engineer is software troubleshooting am not fumbling here its just the truth there's no driver of any such except outlook 2002 and activesync what am really saying is that after prompting me 2 put the cd it really loaded some sort of driver 4rm the cd it usually give error message that my device may not work properly and further troubleshooting brought about searching the driver from the net. I use SP2 and the phone was manufactured 2004 so you know SP2 was launch fully late 2004 or thereabout so you know what i mean. google 4 it 4 me and paste me the link. Why this Fisayo dey run all about abi your surname na Ajala (Ajala Travel)  
. Thanks 4 your concern over my device we hope say it works

Now the time is now i am ready 2 connect my phone 2 browse. What kind of connection are u using Chxta and i suppose you use KDE please start by checking out my phone at www.gsmarena.com and search for Sagem mys-7 and how i can connect it, have tried it on my own and it will just write connecting to access!wap till Jesus come. Please help me am getting left behind and am just like a leech 2 you guys.

Hey welcome aboard Fisayo you just seems 2 disappear like that fiam, na white collar job you dey do? Its sad have not even been able 2 browse witn it on windows cos it keeps telling me 2 connect 2 the net for it 2 find a better driver 4 my device after searching the companion cd. As for linux if i connect the device b4 KDE
start and its initialising all the hardware my phone light  will on and will off as if i depress a key on the keypad. The internet dialup configuration that i did will write connecting to access!wap till Jesus come. Frankly all the past tips i did not write them down and i just started yesternight. So more tips will be appreciated. Search for the phone on this link www.gsmarena.com and type Sagem mys-7 on the quick phone search.Will be looking forward 2 some helping stuffs. Cheerio.

Adewale its not compulsory you buy the battery at Ikeja i had bought bout 5 on different occasion at sango here from those mallam wrist watch seller and u can easily follow suit but those people usually have 2 types but the one with theses nos CR2032 is the cmos and all are still working and bought each 4 bout N120

kissland.com

Let me start wit you Adewale lets see your sole complaint bout linux is the detection of your phone is that not it? I told you bout my phone and my computer  OS now tell if i were 2 be using a linux phone and linux OS would linux not detect the phone better than windows did 2 my phone?. Now tell me if you take a boy who has no prior computer knowledge and train him with linux alone and all that now ask him 2 work with windows  will he be able 2 stand Windows? Absolutely not. Thats how it
is you've been used 2 window all your waking live so thats why you are finding linux tough. It is not so hard 2 learn its because you are comparing it with linux which you don't have teacher for unlike windows. Chxta i can always relate 2 you thoughtful, educative and informative post keep the flag flying brotherman.
Adewale just got a dvd rom 2day 2 support my cd - rewritter cos i use the later alone before.By the way when did you install Kubuntu or its the KDE at kde-look.org more light. Cheerio

Well i don't understand why people get hysteric over the mention of the name linux, like its some kind of menace. Allonym you don't say «do yourself a favour a favour use windows» well i don't know what you mean by that statement but you sound 2 me like a conventional windows user thats comfortable with his situation even when he is been torted so Go and search well, most linux user are one time windows power user so what more can you say. I preach linux 2 guys and everywhere i go cos They believe in my capabilities as a window user so check the begining of this very thread most of you advocating windows cannot even convince yourselves SO STICK 2 WHAT YOU KNOW. Cheerio

Change your power pack with good known working one that should solve the problem. Let me know how it goes

Why wount i know you are a lady,cos you emmit some kind of feminine aura the name of my phone is sagem mys-7. Na micro$haft (according 2 Chxta) smartphone see how you can help me. Cheerio

(Esquire no wayo , ) hey Chxta wetin that one mean i no understand.

Chxta thanks brotherman for the piece of information bout the mp3s and all that once again thanks man. Adewale my phone uses IE the default browser and it rocks even if all others are not going you can count on my phone but sad enough i cannot make it to work with my system sad man!

Hey, Adewale how are you coping with Ubuntu you know it is when have already like Kubuntu that i have 2 change it reason: most of my files are mp3s and i can't afford 2 be converting ordinary cd 2 ogg cause it time wasting and all that. It seems am going 2 join the league of Ubuntu user but will only have sufficient current of light on monday for seamless installation. Adewale since you have use Ubuntu before let me know some of the problems am likely 2 come across so that i will brace up for it post them right here. Cheerio

Hey i just discovered that KDE does not play mp3 by default with its players even AMARAK i had 2 convert audio cd 2 ogg before i can save it on the system these are my questions 1. Can Ubuntu play mp3 by default without installing any plugging or codec. 2. If yes i love KDE very much is there any way i can install Kubuntu from Ubuntu through the cd rom cos i don't have internet access on my pc. cheerio.

Saddam, you did not specify the kind of OS with which you want to set up the dialup with, if its windows i may be able to help but if its linux guys in the house will help since have not done it before in Linux
