How to install VLC on Ubuntu 8
How will I have to install VLC media player on Ubuntu 8. I have already tried some tips on Ubuntu forums, but it didn't help, I think it needs Internet Connection to install, but I want to install it without requiring Internet. I had tried many times but got few errors.. Can anybody Help?

Re: How to install VLC on Ubuntu 8
Hello Nikhil.
You have to download the deb for Hardy from Here from a friend's computer or the Net Cafe.
Then just double click on the vlc deb file and give your password and voila, it will install.

Re: How to install VLC on Ubuntu 8
you can also install thro' synaptic package manager and the vlc version is 0.8.6. This will be easier for novice ubuntu users.

Re: How to install VLC on Ubuntu 8
Hi, There is the latest version of vlc, think it is 0.9.4. I tried to replace only the 0.8.6. files with 0.9.4. But, I couldn't manage it. If you can, please upload the links for the latest one also, as you have done for the 0.8.6 (It works fine)
