"I dicided to make this installation guide beacuse I was board of
waiting for someone at my beryl thread.

Totem is a media application that can play almost anything you throw
at it. It can play mp3, mpeg, avi, ogg, mp4 and much, much more. The
only problem is that you do not have the plugins for all those cool
things when you first install ubuntu. I will tell you how to install
totem offline. I don't have internet on my ubuntu computer but my
mom's computer does have internet. (seh has windows XP) Now lets go
though this installation step by step.


WARNING: THIS IS JUST A SUGESTION OF WHAT TO DO> THIS MEANS THAT IT
WORKED FOR ME. IF IT DOES NOT WORK FOR THEN I'M SURE THEY HAVE SOME
HOW TO AND TIPS.



Step 1. Get a flash drive or blank disk so that you can download the
packages of the internet.

Step 2. You will have to install the lastest Gstreamer plugin avalable
to world. That should be gstreamer 0.10 (or something like that.)
Theirs more. You will have to install the dependences with it. The
reason I say that is beacuse when you try to install a deb file file
the manager would want all dependeces satified. So when you see the
plugins and the tools and they say that the dependeces are that then
make sure you download those. Then make sure you download the
dependences' depdences. (LOL) I know it is kind of hard at first but
you will get it. I have download over about 300 packages for
everything that I have. Most of them I don't need but I like to be on
the safe side.

You will have to doad these packages:
libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-0
libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-dev
libgstreamer-plugins-pulse0.10-0
libgstreamer0.10-0
libgstreamer0.10-0-dbg
libgstreamer0.10-dev
libgstreamer0.10-ruby1.8
gstreamer0.10-plugins-base
gstreamer0.10-plugins-base-apps
gstreamer0.10-plugins-base-doc
gstreamer0.10-plugins-good
gstreamer0.10-plugins-good-dbg
gstreamer0.10-plugins-good-doc
gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly
gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse
gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad
gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse
gstreamer0.10-fluendo-mp3
gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg
gstreamer0.10-pitfdll
gstreamer0.10-doc
gstreamer0.10-alsa
gstreamer0.10-esd
gstreamer-tools
gxine
libxine-main1
libxine-extracodecs
ogle
ogle-gui

And there dependences




The place to download all the plugins for gstreamer0.10 is here

http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/s...ll&release=all

( I don't know why but the tred that i am posting is messed up. I
cannot show click on anything)

anyway search in their on page one and two for the things I said.

Step 3: Put them on your flash drive or cd or whatever mean of data
storage and put the .deb packages on your computer.

Step 4: Put each and every one of the packages through the Gdebi
package manager and click on Install.

Step 5: Restart your computer and try to run one of your mpegs and
mp3.

Step 6: Celebate the victory over the totem Gstreamer. (LOL)

Questions, statements, and answeres



Q1: Dude, why is my downloads going so awfully quick?

A:That is normal. Mosts packages that you download for ubuntu are
small. Problably in the kbs.



S1: Dude, they won't allow me to install because of some dependecy
crap. Your Guide SUCKS.

A: You can think whatever you want about my guide and if you were
halve smart enough you would have known about the dependecies and how
to get rid of them if you were paying attention.



Q2: Their totally bugging out on me dude. Their saying that I need
this dependecy and that dependency is saying I need this dependency.
What do I do if they need each other to install itself?

A: Smart question. They way you go about doing this is that you have
to install them through the terminal. Type in sudo dpkg -i /whatever/
whatever to install manualy. then do the same for the other package.
then go into the synaptic package manager and uninstall something.
(Make sure that you don't uninstall anything inportant or something
that will uninstall more things.) this will configure your two
packages Then reinstall the package you uninstalled. Then your done.


Q3: I don't want the plugins anymore so I deleted them. / I don't know
what happened I was installing them and the wanted me to install
libpango-common. The next thing i knew I could not read some fonts on
my ubuntu. Their all is squares now.
What do I do if I want to remove something that I put on the computer
but they want me to remove some things that the computer needs as
well?

A:This was annoying for me as well. Go to the terminal and type in
sudo aptitude.
Then type in / for a search bar. Type in your packages that you want
to delete. Then type "-"
to remove package and that will downgrade to the origanal package for
the live or non live disk. make sure you have you cd with on hand.
then it should be back to the way it was.



S2: I typed in sudo dpkg -i /whatever/whatever and nothing worked.
Like I said before, your GUIDE SUCKS.

A: Stinks and stone will break my bones badly but words will never
hurt me. Unless words were missles then we would all die.(LOL) To tell
you the truth I am going on memory and I am wrong I will tell you
which sudo command it is. I know that it does have an -i after it and
I know that it does have those four letters in it. As far as the /
whatever/whatever that is stupid if you typed that in, but hey I was
as stupid 5 months ago when I heard about ubuntu. I would have typed
that in. For eople who do not know this what you need to do is copy
the package then pasts the package after the -i inthe terminal to make
it work. Make sure their is a space after the -i."
