First you need to become super user to add user to SUDO.
[ismail@localhost ~]$ su Password: (root password) [root@localhost ismail]#
Now issue the command visudo
[root@localhost ismail]# visudo
Look the image and add the following line in that file you have opened
ismail ALL=(ALL) ALL
And if you want that when you do sudo it don’t asks for passwrod than uncomment and this part
## Same thing without a password %wheel ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL

Windows Media Player Firefox Plugin 1.0 is an essential plugin that every Firefox user must have installed. With this plugin, you can watch and listen to video, audio and streaming URLs in Microsoft’s format, like ASF, WMV, WMV, WMF, and many more directly from within the browser. When you visit a web page that contains a media object (WMF/WMV/ASF/WMF…), you will see the Windows Media Player in compact visualization mode (with the essential controls), directly embedded in the web page, and you will be able to see videos, listen to radio stations, and watch TV programs without opening Windows Media Player in your own window, getting the URL and pasting it into WMP.
This plugin is offered/maintained by the PORT25 Community (http://port25.technet.com), a new IT division of Microsoft, dedicated to the research and exploration of open source solutions and to improvement of interoperability between Microsoft products and the ‘open source world’, especially related to Linux.
On the home page, division has a blog to discuss the related problems.
The plugin files are installed to the Mozilla Firefox plugins folder, and also they will be placed in a \PFiles\Plugins folder on your Windows drive (usually C:). This is considered a major design flaw.

A designer at KDE-Looks.org has come up with a Windows 7 transformation pack for Kubuntu 9.04. It transforms Kubuntu 9.04 into Windows 7. Well, it doesn’t change Kubuntu into Windows 7 but it gives you the look and feel of Windows 7 on Kubuntu. The interesting part is that in some areas Kubuntu works just like Windows 7!
The Vistar7 transformation pack includes Windows 7 official, Windows 7 sound theme files, splash screens, Segoe UI, Calibri and Cambri fonts from Microsoft, Aero mouse theme, default Windows 7 user picture, Vistar7 plasma theme, etc.
NOTE: The transformation pack is not recommended for daily use as it doesn’t come with updates, fixes, or support.
Installation Method:
Once you’re online open konsole in Transformation Pack directory
chmod +x install.sh
sudo ./install.sh
login as vistar7 user
If you do not want to create a new user named vistar7 then download this install.sh file and replace with the previous one.
Download new install.sh.

How to install KDE 4.1.x on Debian Lenny
1. Add to your /etc/apt/sources.list file the following line:
deb http://kde4.debian.net/ lenny main
If you keep this line, packages will be updated every time there is a new release backported.
2. Run
aptitude update
3. Install either:
- Minimal KDE 4 (kde4libs, kdepimlibs, kdebase-runtime, kdebase-workspace and kdebase) with
aptitude install kde4-minimal
then you can install just the KDE-modules you want
- or full KDE 4 with
aptitude install kde4
This might not work since Lenny is still not a stable release, and some depends might broken. In this case, install one by one the modules you need/want. (kdegraphics, kdenetwork, etc) In the moment of writing these lines, this is broken because kpackage, included in kdeadmin, needs smartpm-core that is out of Lenny
4. Optionally, install the translation package for your language if they are available:
aptitude install kde-l10n-XX
replacing XX with your language code.
From now on, when you upgrade your system, if there are available KDE 4.1 updates, they will be installed. You do not have to worry about this, packages will be some time in unstable before being backported so it will minimize possible problems in your stable system.
How to uninstall the backports and go back to KDE 3.5.x
1 Remove the backports line from your sources.list file.
2 Remove all the base packages:
aptitude remove kdelibs5 kdelibs5-data kdepimlibs5 kdepimlibs-data kdebase-data kdebase-bin kdebase-runtime kdebase-runtime-bin-kde4 kdebase-runtime-data kdebase-runtime-data-common kdebase-workspace kdebase-workspace-bin kdebase-workspace-data kdebase-workspace-libs4+5 libphonon4
3 Install the minimal KDE 3:
aptitude install kdelibs kdebase kdm
4 Restart your system and the good old kdm should be on your screen again.
5 Now you can continue installing all the KDE 3 packages you like using.
You always can use aptitude install the meta package KDE, but since that installs a lot of packages I would recommend install the metapackages you really want.
The list: kdeaccessibility kdeaddons kdeadmin kdeartwork kdeedu kdegames kdegraphics kdemultimedia kdenetwork kdepim kdetoys kdeutils kdewebdev
6 You can see the remaining KDE 4 bits on your system with dpkg -l | grep 4:4.1.

If your wireless device shows in restricted device list. And from there you activated the restricted driver but still you cannot find your wireless device in Ubuntu / Kubuntu follow this >
First Deactivate the restricted wireless driver.
Then open terminal / konsole then type >
“sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-2.6.27-11-generic”
Remember you must give you won kernel version number instead of “2.6.27-11″ if you don’t know which kernel you are using then just take a look at the grub menu when system boots, from there you can know which version you are using.
if you are still having problem leave comment i will reply asap.

You’ll need emerald installed to use those types of themes. Go to Synaptic (in Ubuntu) OR ADD/Remove Program (in Kubuntu) and Search for “Emerald”. Follow the instructions to install and check the last page for my tip on how to make emerald load on login instead of the default compiz decorator. From there, just download the themes you want (they should have a .emerald file extension) to your desktop, open Emerald Theme Manager from System > Preferences > and click Import and select your theme. That’s It. 
Let me know if you get stuck. My AIM is up there if you need it.
