    It's possible they rather have good experience then a piece of paper. Or a combo of both

    I suppose, but I don't think the government hires or even contracts work based of the word of experience. I'd say they might want a little more validation. But I could be wrong, I mean Iv never tried for a government job haha.

    Yes, I have an IT job. I work for an IT consulting firm, and basically what I do is design, build and maintain client's networks. We roughly have about 300 clients around the US. Unfortunately I have no college degrees, no computer certification and I'm 21. I have been working in the IT field since I was 16, I have worked for other consulting firm and the Government too.

    You have no college degrees, no computer certifications? and you have worked for the government? What kind of connections do you have?

    Trying to install xmms

    I think you mean Audacious, Audacity is the audio editor. I prefer Banshee for music and VLC for video. XMMS is available, you need to add the Universe repos (under software sources) then "sudo apt-get install xmms2".

    Great! Thanks a lot! I didn't even know to look for software sources (noob :blink: ) haha

    Son of a.... It won't stop crashing

    in Questions

    I have been trying to play Left 4 Dead and it keeps crashing (freezes and goes back to my desktop) I have tried tweaking all the settings, updated my drivers and googled the problem. One thing I found via google was to play the game in window mode with no boarder. After doing that it plays longer but then does the same thing. None of my other games are doing this. I played Dead Space for about 3 hours the other night.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks

    Hello,

    I was just curious as to how many of the hak5 community had IT jobs. If you do, what is it? What do you do? What degree (and or certifications) did you have to have to get It? I think this topic will help the members of the community that don't yet have IT jobs (like myself :( ) see what we should be doing to achieve a career that we actually like.

    Thanks!

    I have to agree with lnxr0x. I had a computer that did that and it was driving me insane. I took the side of the case of and found that it was in fact a fan, but it like yours wouldn't do it all the time. And remember, it could be worse... It could be and evil server!!!!!!!! NOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! (if you don't understand that, its time to start watching the show a little closer)

    Good luck

    Trying to install xmms

    in Questions

    I am new to ubuntu (and linux in general), as if its not obvious. I am trying to install xmms on ubuntu 8.10 but I keep getting an error.

    What I type in the Terminal:

    sudo apt-get install xmms

    My error:

    E: Couldn't find package xmms

    I'm not sure where to put the package so that it can be found to be installed.

    Sorry for the newb question, but I guess I have to start somewhere.

    Thanks!
