Re: MOL cuts off Sound for everybody else?

Linux apps can play sound again only after shutting down the Mac. Odd, but not important: Sometimes there are some sounds that seem to be queued up and all play at once when MOL quits. Not odd. If you enable sound in MOL you're giving the MacOS control of the sound hardware. Thus linux can't play sounds. -- Ben Reser [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://ben.reser.org We tend to see all wars through the lens of the current conflict, and we mine history for lessons convenient to the present purpose. - Brian Hayes

(as when you don't insert dns and they are needed, but i've inserted them, also tryed to disable local dns and other options..) So do you or don't you have your modem working? Just an FYI.

So basically what you're saying is we should just always copy redhat which is silly. nope, I mean that there should be a command like Xconfigure that runs, according to the distro, Xconfigurator, XFdrake and so on.. For command I mean what you use to launch a program, not necessary the same program, expecially in the open source world ;-) (imho) what is tail ?

I'm trying to using internal modem for now, and it works. But once connected I can't access to any remote content. Just an FYI. Linux on PPC is not very easy compared to on PC hardware.
