I can handle getting into rescue mode via the CD, but how do I edit /etc/fstab and what exactly do I edit? I'm a real novice here. Thanx, ES Eric, you might want to keep in mind that no one here is sitting over your shoulder looking at the partitions on your hard drive, so unless the psychic computer tech is online, I doubt that anyone is going to be able to tell you exactly what to edit in the fstab to properly remap the partitions. When you physically move a drive on a machine, the hard drive parititions get renumbered according to their physical placement on the drive. hdc becomes hda, hdd becomes hdb, etc. Without knowing exactly how the original drives were partitioned and mapped, I really doubt that we can tell you how to map them now. You need to try to figure out the physical placement of the partitions on the drive, i.e. first ide drive on 1st ide controller is hda, first partition is hda1, etc. Once you know that, you can issue the mount command manually from the rescuecd command prompt. Assuming one ide hard drive attached to the primary ide controller, and root is on the first partition: mount -t reiserfs /dev/hda1 /mnt/root If you have a CD attached to the primary controller, of course, that changes the mapping. Your primary hard drive might be on the secondard controller in which case it is hdc. If the cdrom is attached first and the ide drive second, both on the primary ide controller, then the cd is hda and the hard drive would be hdb. Once you get root mounted, you should be able to cd to /mnt/root/etc and edit the fstab file. When you edit it, you need to change the former settings of /dev/hd?? to the new correct settings. Then you need to edit the lilo.conf file to change the parameters to point to the new devices as well. Then run the command to rewrite the mbr with the altered lilo.conf settings. it is in /usr/sbin but I can't recall the exact command offhand. If what I have written sounds too complex, then the best suggestion that I can make to you is to reinstall Linux being careful to only format the /usr and / partitions. You should be able to reinstall without repartitioning the drive and if you remember the order of the partitions, you can put everything in the same place and you will only have a new root and usr partition which should leave your data intact. If you don't remember the original partition order, then trying to remap the partitions manually is going to be an issue as well. -- Bryan Phinney Software Test Engineer Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

If you are really concerned that the problem is a setting on your end (defaults should be perfectly fine and all e-mail programs, including Outlook and OE should show proper formatting) you can always backup (be sure to export your address book to a file so that you won't lose it!) and then delete your /home/username/.kde(the .kde is hidden--you need to check show hidden files under the View section of the toolbar in Konq). This will destroy all of your .kde user configuration files, including Kmail, and you will need to re-configure it from scratch the next time you open kde and then Kmail. I've had Kmail mess up a couple of times over the years, and have been forced to do this, but it is a last resort. One test is to create a new User, then make a Kmail account for the User and configure your smtp and POP3, leaving all other settings at the default. Send a message as your new User, and see if the problem persists. If it does, it is probably the receiver's mail program. If everything is hunky-dory with the new User, it is your user settings or a problem in your .kde. Try making your user settings the same as your new User first, then move to the last resort. e.

I can handle getting into rescue mode via the CD, but how do I edit /etc/fstab and what exactly do I edit? I'm a real novice here. Thanx, ES Eric, you might want to keep in mind that no one here is sitting over your shoulder looking at the partitions on your hard drive, so unless the psychic computer tech is online, I doubt that anyone is going to be able to tell you exactly what to edit in the fstab to properly remap the partitions. When you physically move a drive on a machine, the hard drive parititions get renumbered according to their physical placement on the drive. hdc becomes hda, hdd becomes hdb, etc. Without knowing exactly how the original drives were partitioned and mapped, I really doubt that we can tell you how to map them now. You need to try to figure out the physical placement of the partitions on the drive, i.e. first ide drive on 1st ide controller is hda, first partition is hda1, etc. Once you know that, you can issue the mount command manually from the rescuecd command prompt. Assuming one ide hard drive attached to the primary ide controller, and root is on the first partition: mount -t reiserfs /dev/hda1 /mnt/root If you have a CD attached to the primary controller, of course, that changes the mapping. Your primary hard drive might be on the secondard controller in which case it is hdc. If the cdrom is attached first and the ide drive second, both on the primary ide controller, then the cd is hda and the hard drive would be hdb. Once you get root mounted, you should be able to cd to /mnt/root/etc and edit the fstab file. When you edit it, you need to change the former settings of /dev/hd?? to the new correct settings. Then you need to edit the lilo.conf file to change the parameters to point to the new devices as well. Then run the command to rewrite the mbr with the altered lilo.conf settings. it is in /usr/sbin but I can't recall the exact command offhand. If what I have written sounds too complex, then the best suggestion that I can make to you is to reinstall Linux being careful to only format the /usr and / partitions. You should be able to reinstall without repartitioning the drive and if you remember the order of the partitions, you can put everything in the same place and you will only have a new root and usr partition which should leave your data intact. If you don't remember the original partition order, then trying to remap the partitions manually is going to be an issue as well. -- Bryan Phinney Software Test Engineer Thanx... I'm almost ok so far.

That way, the mount point will be created. The /mnt directory should exist as I think that it is created on the ramdrive that Mandrake uses to run rescue mode.

RickS It sounds like you have two seperate problems here. I'll take a stab at the easy one first. If you are starting X as root, you will not be able to run X programs as a normal user. The reasion for that is that the user that starts X, or logs in a the window manager screen, owns the display. There are security conserns with letting other users access the X server. If you use su username, and then start X, there some problems as well. Because you are username, but have the envirment of the user you were before running su, things get confused. If you use su - username, and then start X, things should work right. Now, as for not being able to log in as a normal user, if would be helpfull to know what kind of error message. Without that, the only thing I can think of is to check /etc, and see if there is a nologin file. This file is normaly created when you use shutdown with a delay time, and prevents normal users from logging in. If this file is still there for some reasion, deleting it will allow normal logins again. Mikkel -- Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with Ketchup!

I thought you could not log in as a normal user at the login prompt. You can run bootdrake, and check to make sure it is still set to autologin, and that the correct user is selected. Also, if you have not set a password for a user, you will not be able to log in, even though you can autologin as that user at boot.

If you run the Windows version, it will extract the files from locked e-books as well. (It uses the windows dll and key to do the unlocking, so I gess it is legal...) I would even be happy to find a good reader for reading e-books that are formatted for the Palm. (Using Palm software in the emulator is not a good option...)

Well, a package manager per se is really a database front end, and the database is either going to be what's in /var/lib/rpm, or the equivalent in an apt-get based system, or what have you. Other distributions have package management systems -- for instance, apt in debian and derived distributions, emerge for gentoo, packman for arch, and so forth. I've heard for instance that apt is superior to what we have (urpmi) but I am skeptical. It boils down to whether or not you have good repositories, more than whether or not your system is apt based or urpmi based, at least in my humble opinion :). One person in particular has been thinking along the lines of apt-get Mandrake as he puts it, saying that apt is better than urpmi. I'm not so sure, but it's intriguing. I tried apt once on Mandrake a while ago, and wasn't really impressed with the results. But I think my experience was because there wasn't a good source list set up. He also mentioned something called synaptics - I am not sure of the exact spelling, since a google search gave me mostly results for some touchpad device. -- David E.
