Hi there,
I need help with installing packages. After I installed Mandrake 9.2 I
cannot install software. When I open the installation tool, I can select
the packages. Yet when I hit the install button the program opens a
progress bar. After a while I am prompted to put the CD into dev/hdb.
Thanks, that explains it - my ssh and desktop tests were on different
users. When I created the 'real' users (excluding my userid) on this
computer, I put them all in the same group so they could share files. If
the name of the group is 'gwacl' and gid is 502, what code should I add/chg
so
I could be wrong, but I think the restore function reads
lilo.conf, restoring all entries that previously
existed--including Winblows entries. Can anybody confirm this?
That's correct.
Is that the cli command, or is it an option on the cd?
thanks,
eric

Hi again,
Well, I don't know much about shell programming, but if the group ID of your
users is 502, then I guess you can change the lines in /etc/bashrc like
below. I just inserted a new option, I didn't delete the original just in
case. I guess it should work

Hi all,
It appears that Nvidia's nforce drivers for the embedded network card
don't want to play nice with Mandrake 9.2. I installed a Realtek 3189D

as it should, with no slowdowns.
Thanks for the help!!

Two problems now:
1) Tuxracer and several other games are playing very slowly. I'd say less than
