Re: [expert] aic7xxx module problems.. How can I turn it off?
Have you checked lilo.conf or grubs menu.lst (whichever yu are using) - sounds like the install program detected it and set it up to init the card before booting. BillK Keep in touch with http://mandrakeforum.com: Subscribe the "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" mailing list.
Re: [expert] aic7xxx module problems.. How can I turn it off?
I've played with a bunch of the settings in the SCSI card bios to no avail.. Nothing seems out of place or to be configured incorrectly.. And it's weird because, again, it always works fine in windows but only works intermittently in Mandrake. Could someone out there help me work around this problem? How can I tell Mandrake not to load the aic7xxx.o module on startup? It's doing it REALLY early.. like before all the "Starting... [ OK ] " messages it's trying to load the SCSI module. Where is it being told that I want it to load the module? And how can I tell it not to?

You need to mount it with appropriate permissions. Specifically a umask. What I did on a dual boot machine was added all users I wanted to have write access to the partition to a new group called "fatusers" (group number 527 here) then editted the /etc/fstab entry for the partition to include gid=527,umask=007. What this does is gives full read/write privileges to root and members of that group, and nobody else can even cd into the mount point. > What do I have to do AS ROOT to do this?

Re: [expert] Making partition writeable to user
The /etc/fstab entry for this drive is probably set to ro (read-only) and may need to be set to rw (read-write). A RO mount would override any permissions issues, and would be expressly supposed to do so.

[expert] Making partition writeable to user
I have a drive/partition mapped to /mnt/DOS_hdb6, and it is vfat. It's purpose is to hold games (windoze games, some of which can be played with wine). I want to make it, or at least directories on it, writeable to users but I cannot do it, which confuses me somewhat. I log in as root or superuser and try to chmod portions of the drive as writeable to all, but I keep getting "operation not permitted" messages. Excuse me? As root I can do anything I want. I can wipe any and all drives, partitions, mountpoints off the face of the earth. I can delete the system by running "rm -rf /*" and I wont be stopped with "operation not permitted" messages but I am not permitted to change one lousy mount, or portions thereof, to be world-writeable?

I am having a problem with my POP3 mail server. I am able to send and receive mail from my Linux box just fine. The problem is when I am at another location using a client such as Outlook express I am able to Recieve mail OK but when I try to send mail I get an error message saying "User 'mike' rejected by the server". I am sure Outlook is configured correctly. I also tried netscape and got a very similar error message. To me it seems like the problem is a configuration with the mail server. Here is some info: I have a domain name registered to my IP. I am running mandrake 7.1. I am using Postfix for SMTP and Qpopper for POP3. You people have been really great in the past.

I have no ideas if your numbers are correct but I will make this comment. The notion that you're going to hand Linux of any kind to a true newcomer to a computer and expect that they're going to actually install and run it is beyond reason. The same is almost as true for Windows. This is what keeps Apple afloat and makes the iMac popular. I'm not saying this to be perjorative towards Apple or you Bill but I think it's reasonable to make distinctions between true computer users (who can do things independently) and the vast masses who use computers at work with tech support. > The Guru level would basically get the option on everything, and be able to > see all packages, whereas the Newbie would get only the most uncomplicated > stuff (read GUI or very simple shell.) The problem with tiered installations is that the Linux world is dependent upon the Internet for its support and for software access. I agree with you that lots of stuff needs to be eliminated and tied up for newbies but the minute they download a program from freshmeat they're in trouble with such a system. At this point, I think the best that a company like Mandrake can hope for is to provide products that will make gurus, gurus supporting application users, and your intermediate categories. My wife uses computers every day and yet couldn't get a modem or network card functioning if her life depended upon it even with Windows. My dad won't install W'95 or '98 on his system because it's "too complicated" to learn a new desktop from his 3.1 desktop. Linux is not designed for those people unless they have tech support. The popularity of Windows didn't come by it expanding outward from the home to business; it went the other way around. People with tech support learned enough about it (by using apps running on it) to want it at home. By the time it hit their desktop at home they already knew the basics of the operating system and probably still had access to someone who could answer questions for them. So it will be with Linux but we have to be patient. Cheers --- Larry Keep in touch with http://mandrakeforum.com: Subscribe the "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" mailing list.

Re: [expert] LM 7.2 and beyond (part 2)
kpackage and similar offer a graphic inetrface that is similar to add/remove programs - they just havent gone the step further and integrated extra module control, you have to do it. And as for tryng to add say, gxedit and having extra packages installed, thats called dependencies in linux - if you want it to work - you must install them! In short, linux does have the equivalent, working in a similar way, but it is quite primative in user facilities and operation compared to the microsoft product! I would dearly be able to look at a display and see what I need to install a package, before I download it, not after like linux does. Mandrake Update is also a form of auto-installation. And there are the debian folks who script apt-get so it runs in the background and keeps their system up to date - automatically. What Linux does give is more low level control, but paradoxicly what it needs is better high level control such as a better uninstall, be able to preview changes with little work and handhold those with little experiance, whilst keeping low level control. So whats the distinction - control (Linux), usability (MS). And food for thought, the more control you give someone, without the help or knowlege to control it, the more damage they can do. Dont confuse the design decisions made by MS with being unsophisticated, it is often VERY sohpisticated under the hood, particularly in gui design, where kde (which I use) and gnome (urk) are playing catchup.
