I was born an optimist, and some of my optimism had survived the encounters with Microsoft software. So I tried OE. My default browser is Netscape 4.7. Continuing in the spirit of a riddle: When I click on any link in OE mail, it opens a window displaying my C: drive. I repeat. When I click on any link in OE mail, it opens a window displaying my C: drive. Not the Explorer window. It is the window I get when I doubleclick on the drive outside the Explorer. So, there is a way to override the launching of IE. I am not sure what I have done to get this behavior. I think it is related to the following. I had Opera installed at one time, then uninstalled it. When I right-click over any file icon the top entry in the context window is for Opera. The reason it is at the top is that I have spelled it with a leading zero instead of oh. When I doubleclick a text file icon in Explorer I get a dialog asking me to locate Opera. The initial path it fills on the input line of that dialog is C:\ This matches the window that opens from OE when I click a link. So it must be trying to launch Opera but it does not find it. At your own risk, you may want to try importing to your registry from a text file like this: textfile.reg === [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\Shell] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\Shell\0pera] <=== 0 zero [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\Shell\0pera\command] <=== 0 zero @="C:\\PROGRA~1Opera.exe \"%1\"" <=== O oh === /ken Original Message Subject: RE: Off Topic: Browser riddle...

I haven't worked with OE5 -- I avoid MS software as much as possible -- but unless OE is doing something nasty, it shouldn't take a registry hack. Close OE. Launch Opera, and hit Alt-P for the Preference screen. Choose Default Browser from the list at the left side. Put checkmarks in the boxes for http, https, and ftp on the bottom part of the screen. Click OK. Exit Opera, and restart the computer. Return to Opera and verify that the configuration hasn't changed. If not, launch OE and try clicking a link in a message. If it loads the page in Opera, you're all set. If it launches IE, get rid of OE and get a real mail client.Seriously, if it does launch IE, it probably means that Microsoft has hard-coded IE into OE, which would be typical MS arrogance. C.

It will even transfer long filenames over this connection (intersvr may report the hdd size incorrectly but never mind that). This method is great for transferring the win9x setup files from say the cd-rom in your desktop to a freshly fdisked or repartitioned drive and running setup from there afterward. You'll need what is sometimes referred to as a 'laplink' cable tho... and if you're thinking serial ports make sure you have a weekend to spare since such transfers are very slow. You're much better off using the parallel ports (if you need more help with the cable drop me a line off the list)... Cheers! Ian C.

Just got another Lib 100CT with a blank HDD. Tried various OS installations and nothing would recognise my CD drive (its an HP writer, M8230e I think). Gave in and found some floppies with DOS 6.2, installed that and installed the CD's Dos drivers from floppy but now get an error about Card driver not being installed and APSI Manager not installed. Does this mean it's not recognising the PCMCIA slots? Seems strange as the FDD works! I thought the BIOS did this? Do I need some Tosh drivers loaded in addition to any standard MSDOS stuff? Thought about doing it via a cable link to my other PC. I have a COM port type of lead, but not sure if I need the Null Modem adapter?? The other machine is running Win 98. Should I use the Microsoft Direct connect program? and what should be running on the new "DOS" machine? Interlink?? Any help or instructions either on or off list would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Andy. z Ps following on from my note last week, the Libs at auction were from the Dome and went for £325 to £350 which doesn't sound too bad until you add 17.5% vat and 10% buyers premium! :-( ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://libretto.basiclink.com/archive - Archives http://www.picante.com/~gtaylor/portable/faq.html - FAQ ---UNSUBSCRIBE--- mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=cmd:unsubscribe UNSUBSCRIBE DIGEST-- Use above but add DIGEST to the subject line... **

kernel 2.4.2 and CT50
Date: Mon, 05 Mar 2001 09:07:28 From: "neil barnes" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: kernel 2.4.2 and CT50 This is probably aimed at Christian... I've managed to compile 2.4.2 quite happily (if slowly!) and end up with an executable core...but when I run it, it complains that it can't find the sound modules (which the previous version used and which I've compiled into the kernel). This sounds as if there's a config file somewhere which I don't know about which should tell the kernel what it needs. The second probelm is that I don't get a delayed config of the pcmcia network card (psion dacom gold 28.8/10M combo - NE2000 according to the old kernel) any longer. Any thoughts?

Backup (was: Success: Complete reinstall WITHOUT CD-ROM)
Date: Mon, 5 Mar 2001 09:25:40 +0100 From: Kapusta Gerhard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Backup (was: Success: Complete reinstall WITHOUT CD-ROM) Hi! Jim wrote: > I am a believer that re-installing > windows is like going to the dentist; I hate doing it, I > don't do it often > enough, but it saves me pain later on. I also hate to install windows new, but I do it usually only when I got a new PC! Most PC users foreget one important thing: doing a regular backup! I do it in a very simple way: I have 2 installations on all my PC's, one for regular work, and one for backup and test purposes. To do a full backup I start the second installation and do a simple copy of the first installation and all the user stuff to another disk or PC. It can be done with drag and drop from the explorer. Of course it is possible to start the first installation and do a backup of the second one. My backup disks are removeable and stored on different locations, so even by theft or burning down my house would not destroy my windows! (Perhaps windows does not need so much security, but tons of irretrival digital pictures need it!) A nice side effect of having 2 installations on a PC is the following: I never run any unknown program and I never install any untested software on my work installation! For test purposes I use the second installation, if it is unstable by installing end experimenting, I replace it by a copy from my backup disk. It is all very simple and very reliable. You only need enough HD-space and a network. Jim wrote: > I also reboot my windows machine > every morning while I'm getting my caffeinated beverage... My Lib is never rebootet, except for backup (to activate the second installation) or if a new installed software requires this! regards Gerhard PS: Jim wrote: > And while I'm here, a big Thank You to you, David.
