In the kppp configuration under modem commands make sure you allow 80 for the Post-init delay. For some reasons the Apple modems are slow to finish their init sequence and kppp is thinking their is no modem there as a result. Bingo, this is the right answer. Do you know why I have no sound during the connection time ? Thanks, PHL

I can start up the install disk holding down C, and choose the install options. install-gui and install-gui-old both give unusable screens (that are nonetheless obviously distorted graphical login screens). install-text is fine until I select the keyboard type, when it fails with a file not found error. These are the exact same disks I have used for my other install. md5's seem fine. Can anyone suggest a next step for me (YDL installed without a hitch...!) install-gui-benh or install-gui-benh text plain install-text is broken -- Stew Benedict -- MandrakeSoft

I think that would require a driver/program to pull the sound data off the modem and put it onto the audio card. To my knolwedge nobody has written it. This is a pretty standard issue with internal or PCMCIA modems. -- Ben Reser [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://ben.reser.org What upsets me is not that you lied to me, but that from now on I can no longer believe you. -- Nietzsche

I started my install using install-text and that crashed at my keyboard. I then went with install-gui-benh and that worked. The install went like it should have. The install went all the way through with no problems. At the list of video cards I chose Radeon and first I went with 4.3.0 X with 3d and 16bits and then the ibook rebooted and I chose Linux and received a blank screen. I then did another install and chose for X 4.3.0 without 3d and 24 bits and ended up with another blank screen at reboot. During the install when I tested each one of the above they worked. I dual boot with OS X. install-gui-benh video=ofonly For X, I use X 4.3.0 with dri (3d) and 24 bits on my ibook 2.2 (2002) 700MHz with dual usb CDR/DVD ati radeon and so on. Then when you reboot use to start linux: linux video=ofonly You may want to install the benh kernel (with rpmdrake or urpmi) and add an entry in yaboot for it with drakboot ; i use the following kernel option to get a better pmud experience : video=ofonly devfs=mount hdb=ide-scsi acpi=off I also needed to do: % cd /dev % sudo ln -s scd0 cdrom to be able to eject my CD driver with the eject command. I still have some problem with system time (was first blocked at 1904, now get stuck in 1970, and I don't remember why it changed ...) Best, Olivier Hi All: I am having problems ejecting my cds in Mandrake 9.1. After I had the install working I was able to eject my cds. But I have lost my dual boot with Mac OS X. So, I was trying to insert the Mac cd but now eject does not work! So, I tried the above but that is not working for me. Michael
