[newbie-it] sndconfig e ritorno a KDE
digito, ma non esiste :(non che imboscato in qualche parte dell'hd ?eppure anche un find / -name *sndconf*non trova nulla :( l'hai lanciato come root? si chiama sndconfig (non sndconf) va fatto partire come root va fatto partire fuori da x windows ora inizio io con le domande :) mi succede spesso di dover usare la shell fuori da x, cosa faccio: esco dal KDE e dalla pagina "Benvenuti a ..." seleziono il modo non grafico (scusate non mi ricordo esattamente cosa c' scritto). A questo punto faccio il lavoro e alla fine mi accorgo sempre che non so come si ritorna a "Benvenuti a ...". Di solito rinuncio e faccio #shutdown now oppure senza vergogna provo un po' di tasti Ctrl Alt... Qualcuno mi suggerisce il metodo pi elegante? Tommaso

[newbie-it] Invio fax: successo.
Ciao, a chiunque potrebbe interessare : sono finalmente riuscito ad inviare fax (per ora ho fatto solo una prova con il formato testo, ma son fiducioso anche sul resto) con Linux. Usando ksendfax, ho modificato il comando di invio. Cliccando su Options e poi Preferences, nella linea "Send Fax" ho messo il comando fax send '@@Phone' '@@FName' Cosi' facendo non c'e' nessun spool, il fax viene inviato immediatamente. Se c'e' magari qualche errore qua e la' basta cambiare i diritti, seguendo l'errore. Domanda: Dall'altra parte il fax era acceso, per ora non so cosa succeda se il ricevente e' spento. Qualcuno lo sa ? Inoltre, come si possono ricevere fax ? C'e' un'altra GUI, invece di ksendfax, con cui si possono ( anche ) ricevere ? Grazie, Alberto -- [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Dopo aver pasticciato con un'altra distribuzione (chiedo perdono!) cercando di installarla, e senza esseci riuscito dato che la mia macchina (Acer Aspire PIII 600) accetta solo Mandrake, mi sono ritrovato nella necessit di reinstallare la 7.2. Purtroppo non sono pi riuscito a farlo, nonostante molti tentativi; ogni volta che provo la parte iniziale dell'installazione parte regolarmente almeno fino al riconoscimento hardware, poi compaiono una serie di dati e le scritte: Aiee, killing interrupt handler Kernel panic: attempted to kill the idle task In swpper task not syncing Da qui non si muove pi e non c'e altro da fare che spegnere il tutto. Quello che non capisco il perch la 7.1 venga installata tranquillamente e senza alcun problema. Ci sono speranze? Sto pensando di aspettare una versione stabile della release 8 e vedere cosa succede Grazie a chi volesse darmi una mano.

Re: [newbie] read/write to and from NTFS/FAT
Hell, Can some one advise me on the best way to allow Mandrake 7.2 to read and write to my FAT NTFS partitions? Thank you Hi, I have LM7.2 and win95 (FAT32) and win2k (NTFS) in the same hard disk, and I couldn't write to a NTFS from LM7.2. So I had first to write all my files from LM7.2 to win95 (FAT32), and then these files are easy accesible from anywhere. Maybe you must create an extra FAT32 partition (use partition magic) to exchange files from anywhere to anywhere. I know that there is some modules that permit you to write to a NTFS from LM7.2 but I never used them. Good luck!! - Ing. Qco.

hi all.. i am just about installing 7.2 and theres one REALLY annoying thing going on : whenever i come to the point of choosing which packages to install, i choose from the main packages and i know when counting the MBs in brackets i ALWAYS get below 1 GB. now whatever i choose - regardless if i go back and deselect packages - mandrake ALWAYS tells me that it could only install 65 % of the packages i chose. why the hell does it say so ???..i know for sure that the packages are below 1 GB (and i do have a 1029 MB drive). this is driving me crazy, its hell to add all the different packages i lack later... i first tried a text only install and there it worked without any problems ! Furthermore the text-only install doesnt provide a partition utility whereas the gui does---why ??? i was only offered to decide between the existing partitions or the hd i wanted to install mandrake to. now i have 1 IDE and 1 SCSI disk, i wanted the / system to be on IDE and /usr to be on SCSI. but mandrake only allowed me to put the whole system EITHER on IDE or EITHER on SCSI ( and it created the partitions itself - it didnt ask me if i wanted to create them myself ! - btw i was in expert mode !) this is really disappointing, those things make installing mandrake a pain ! has anyone else experienced those things ? --quay -- -Quaylar- Icq# 30932448 [EMAIL PROTECTED] !

[newbie] ftp transfer
Hello, I have a problem to transfer files. When I try to transfer a file from my pc (with gftp) to a particular PC, I get the message "No such file or directory". When I try to transfer a file from this station to mine, it works perfectly. I have no problem with other pc to transfer files by ftp. So I think that the problem is linked with the other one but I have no idea how to resolve such a problem. Thank you Frdric

[newbie] Which directories to back up?
Hi, I am running Mandrake 7.2. I was going to do a back up with tar and gzip. Which directories, should I back up? I read in "the complete idiots guide to Linux (Caldera)". That one should back up: /etc /usr/lib /usr/X11R6/lib/X11 /usr/src/linux (if you have modified the kernal) /home /var/spool/mail are there any others that I should back up? Or that pretty much it? Trev ps I have the distro disks.

Re: [newbie] Floppy flopped, Linux hosed
I just had a similiar problemtwo days agowith my Linux4Windows. First my mouse went a little screwy then my monitor went into suspend mode. I reboot it through the reset button on my box and booted back into Linux. No problem. The next day I wanted to play and learn a little bit more of Linux but never got pass the initial boot process. As soon as the Kdesktop was about to load up the system crashed again. Monitor flashed "suspend mode" then later it stated "check connection". I tried several times to boot into Linux, this was the first Linux distro I was able to load into my pc, but never got pass startx. I tried clicking the uninstall button but was given an error message about a component missing. I just dragged the whole Linux4Windows folder into the trash bin removed mbr and rebooted. Now Windows is the only thing that boots up. I like Linux justas much asMacintosh and Windows but frankly, they all are screwy and have their short comings. Linux is just younger than the other two but I don't see it as more stable, it might have problems with hardware mostly because of proprietary limitation but I find it as stable as Windows and Mac.

[newbie] Apple Pro USB Keyboard under Mandrake 7.2 (i586)?
Hi All, I am (very) happily running mandrake 7.2 on my PC (i586), using USB support for my scanner (epson 1240U) and my monitor (!) (Mitsubishi Diamond Pro 900U). Plus I'm using an old AT Keyboard. I have just acquired a very very nice keyboard by Apple, the Apple Pro USB Keyboard. It works fine under "that other operating system". The BIOS is set to detect a USB keyboard. And it works fine in grub too However, I can't see how to get it working under Linux Mandrake itself. I have no idea how to make it work: Should I be modifying XF86Config, or is there a utility under Mandrake like xdrake that will allow me to set the keyboard from AT to USB? xdrake --expert lets me set the graphics card up, but doesn't let me decide what kind of kb i have. If I define the keboard protocol as "USB" in XF86Config, do I need to set the device to something like "/dev/usb". if so how do I find out what? I have also found some info searching the web which implies by having USB support defined (for use with the scanner etc), I will knock out the underlying "inbuilt" support for USB keyboards. If anyone has any experience of getting a USB keyboard to work with Mandrake 7.2, after having started out with a standard AT keyboard, I'd be very intersted to know how you got it to work. thanks for your time and help, Andrew Sova _ Do You Yahoo!?
