I have a new Chicony laptop. I've managed to install RedHat 6.0, however X refuses to start. I downloaded the latest X, which supposedly supports the graphics card (a Silicon Motion LynxEM SMI 711) but couldn't get it to work. I tried both using the new frame buffer device and "standard" x, but neither seem to work. What would really make my day is the /etc/XF86Config from someone with this (or similar) laptop model. Otherwise, any other pointers on running linux on laptop will be appreciated, especially since I haven't messed yet with neither pcmcia (for the network and modem cards) nor apm.

Re: [iglu] Two problems with partitions -- another solution?
If I may suggest another solution... Boris asked: I decided to install RedHat Linux 6.1 on the E: partition. The installation was fine but the problem is that after the installation the programs that the F: partition became into E: partition so none of the programs installed there have run. And Ira replies: that's hardly a Linux problem, it's a Windows partition game. the only product that I know of that solves this is Partition magic, for about [...] Partition magic again. it has a "magic mover" tool that will move binaries around and update all their .ini files and locations in the registry for you, and actually much more. once again, these are ALL windows questions, they should not be posted [...] 1. Solution I've a tiny DOS program called Part I'm crazy about -- saved my ass (read: HD) more than once! You can edit the partitions table on the MBR with it, to fix errors, edit partition sizes, create/delete/erase/clone, and even format FAT/FAT32 partitions with it! Colorful GUI (char-mode) interface too! (Part.exe, Ranish's Partition Manager; maybe some Linux tools do it (easily) too?) Oh, to answer Boris' problem: If these partitions are logical, you can edit the chaining-order... ah, too tired to explain now -- it's all in LILO's readme... (Order of the four primaries in that table can be changed too, but I suspect OSs sort them by cylinder, disregarding.) eMail me for details. (I might summarize this and simil stuff as a "tutorial/guide", when Chen'll say the ZWiki is stable?) 2. Linux/win? I disagree, Ira, if you don't mind, that this is an exclusive winbugs issue...

Re: SuSe 6.3
I only can agree and strongly advice everybody to - either boot from the 2nd CD (for textmode install) or - boot from the bootdisk (also textmode install) Only in the textmode install can you choose your packages in detailed level and read the info which is included on each package. At the end you can use SaX to config your X etc. Much better and more detailed. The book is also good reading for beginners, since it explains a lot (though it is NOT a complete Linux manual) and most of all explains the special things about SuSE. Schlomo PS: SuSE is not a beginners distro, but for medium till advanced people it's very good. On Tue, 29 Feb 2000, Daniel Feiglin wrote: Apart from sucking or otherwise, there is a bug in the SuSE 6.3 GUI installation which prevents lilo from writing the boot sector of a logical drive. A note to this effect comes with the official distribution. The workaround is to either use the old style text mode installation (adequate), or simply repeat the last stage of the lilo install using the yast utility. You must of course make a boot diskette along the way if you don't already have one. And while on SuSE 6.2/3, their create an emergency boot diskette via yast does not work. The workaround is to use the manual procedure described in the 6.3 manual on pp. 118.
