[newbie] Enlightenment vs Sawfish

2001-09-14 Per discussione ryan_steffes
Which one do most of you prefer? I use gnome, and in Mandrake 7 it default installed Enlightenment and in 8 it defaulted to Sawfish. I'm not sure if the features I liked in Enlightenment exist and I don't know how to set them up, or whether they were features of Enlightenment. For starters, my

That's basically what solved it for me. I commented out the option 8139too irq=9 line in my modules.conf, rebooted twice (yes twice, got me). Then it worked fine again. Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

I can disable USB and on board sound in BIOS. Here's how my PnP bios look: I have two options initially: Configuration Mode: [Use PnP OS] PnP OS: [Disabled] This is what it was. Looks like PnP is disabled to me, so that's how I had it. The other thing I can do is change it

Looks to me there is a line in /etc/modules.conf like: alias eth0 3c59x and then something like 'irq=...'. I suggest using just 'alias eth0 3c59x'. I commented lines from /etc/modules.conf that said: options eth0 irq=10 options eth1 irq=9 just now, rebooted, and got different errors at boot,

I just tried to upgrade to Mandrake 8.1 beta (but I had the same problem with 8.0) to fix some problems I was having with x windows. After having installed Mandrake successfully, I needed to add a network card to my setup, a 3com 905 series card. It was working fine under Mandrake 7.0. What
