Ok, I'm currently having several problems with my Linux box
Here is what I'm running:
Release: Mandrake-Linux 6.5
Kernel: 2.2.13-7mdk
Machine: Pentium II 400 MMX
(need any other info?)
1) Video Card: Sis 6326
a) I can only use 800x600
which is fine, but I get drawing
errors when I use any other mode
but my card claims it can support them
I turned off my acceleration, which helped,
but not completely
b) I cannot display certain fonts
ie. fixed, clean, ...
The only terminal emulator I can run is Kvt,
because I can change the font ( I'm using
courier bold (it also won't display normal
weight text in Kvt))
2) Sound Card: C-Media CMI8738/C3DX
a) it isn't detected when I run sndconfig (pnp autodetector)
In Win98 it's listed as PCI and Legacy, but in BIOS
it lists Legacy on the IRQ
I can't even get this to work
3) Modem (possibly kernel)
a) I know it is a winmodem, but apparently there is a module
available through www.linmodems.org ltmodem568
When I try to install the module, it reports several unresolved symbols.
Here is the report:
> ./ltmodem.o: unresolved symbol bh_mask

Recently, someone else sugguested that I am using the secure kernel, and I
need the 'normal' one. Which one is the normal one??? I reinstalled my
orriginal kernel (listed above).
Also, could someone please explain BeroList. I can set up the list, but
when I try to mail to it. I get an undeliverable message error.
Laterz!
