SORRY IF THIS TYPE OF REQUEST TO NEWBIE LIST BRAKES SOME RULE, BUT I DO NOT KNOW WHERE TO TURN NEXT.
I CAN NO LONGER LOG ON TO MDK ON-LINE NOR MDK EXPERT. MANDRAKE ON LINE HAS GIVEN ME THREE DIFFERENT ACCOUNTS AND TELLS ME TO DROP THE UNUSED ACCOUNTS BUT I AM NOT ABLE TO ON THEIR SITE. I AM ABLE TO LOG ON TO MDK CLUB. THE SCREEN RESOLUTION CHANGES I WAS ABLE TO MAKE (please see forwarded messages below) USING star/preferences/control-center/peripherals/display/screen size/ SAYS IT ADJUSTS ONLY NEW APPLICATIONS. 'OLDER' APPLICATIONS , SUCH AS THE TOOLBARS AT TOP OF SCREENS AND DESKTOP, AND SOME OTHER FUNCTIONS, ARE VIRTUALLY UNREADABLE BECAUSE FONTS ARE SO SMALL.. I AM RUNNING 10.1 PURCHASED FROM MDK STORE ON AN i626 MACHINE AND USING KDE 3.2.3. THE HOST NAME IN KDE CONTROL CENTER IS 249-234-35-65.tampabay.rr.com. IS THIS WHAT IT SHOULD SAY? ALSO WHEN i SIGN IN AS ROOT THE SCREEN AT TOP READS KDE su. I DON'T REMEMBER THE su BEFORE I RE INSTALLED. MAYBE IT WAS THERE. Any further info you need will be readily given. Even my bank account numbers. I'm desperate for help. Andy ---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: Fwd: service configuration problem SECOND REQUEST Date: Tuesday 18 January 2005 09:06 am From: Andy Yankovich <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] An addendum to previous message re font size: I have been able to adjust fonts/screen resolution for NEW applications ONLY. How do I permanently adjust PRIOR applications? I still cannot see what I am typing here. I need to get this fixed. Re the applet and system configuration, it still exists. I need to resolve that issue also. Please help OR direct me to another source for help. Thanks, Andy ---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: service configuration problem Date: Monday 17 January 2005 10:54 pm From: Andy Yankovich <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I tried to click on the red/orange applet with the questionmark to update my re-installed system. I had previously installed a 10.1 $12.99 set of 6 CDs from Cheapbytes and reinstalled with the 10.1 Powerpack purchased from MandrakeStore. In addition to the service config problem, my screen resolution went all messed up and I can hardly read what I am now typing, the fonts are so small. I tried to fix it by clicking star/preferences/control center/peripherals/display/screen size/1024x768. Some screens were fixed by most, from desktop to many others were affected in the reverse manner and fonts got so small it is almost impossible to read. Can you help with these two MAJOR problems. If not, must I reinstall as I did before or must I reformat the Linux part of Windows C drive? the error messages from the logs follow: 1:51:34 Computing new updates... 1:51:34 Connecting to http://www.mandrakeonline.net//online3_RemoteAction.php?action=Up dateList&log=andyyank&host=249 ... 1:51:35 Wrong Action or host or login. 1:52:11 Computing new updates... 1:52:11 Connecting to http://www.mandrakeonline.net//online3_RemoteAction.php?action=Up dateList&log=andyyank&host=249 ... 1:52:11 Wrong Action or host or login. What is the reference to "host" mean?? Thanks for your help. Andy ------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------
