[newbie] What's wrong with my gcc?
My test.cpp is just a stupid program like this:
#include
void main()
{
for(int i = 0; i < 11; i++)
cout << i << endl;
}
[root@localhost /root]# gcc test.cpp

Re: [newbie] Supermount Woes
Billno dangers that I'm aware of. Through experimentation, since documentation is all but non-existant, I found that supermount works fine on dos formatted floppies. But if you want to read/write an ext2 floppy then you need to do it the traditional Linux way which includes umounting the floppy when done. If you don't umount then supermount won't work on the next dos floppy you put in the drive.

[newbie] Zip and supermount
My name is Eric. 3 day old linux user. Mandrake 7.0 I have problems with my zip drive mounting. Its id in Drakconf as hdb. Its a internal zip 100 ide The floppy, cdrom, and cdrom2 is supermounted. If i put a '#' in front of the supermounted drives in fstab and reboot the zip will mount and work correctly. I supermounted just the floppy as not to have to many mounted files and tried mounting the zip. No dice. I moved the zip mount line in fstab above the floppy supermount line in fstab but I am not sure I am using the correct zip mount line. So I would like the line in fstab to mount the zip drive as hdb with the regular mount command and the line to supermount the zip in fstab as hdb. Please. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks. PS This is my first posting and I am new to Netscape I have my fingers crossed

Any monitored item you choose can be docked into kpanel. If you have a Pentium II, III, or Celeron, the cpu's internal diode temp can be read. My p3-450 at 608mhz reads room temp to 43C under extreme load (like when running 'cpuburn'). Installation is as simple as installing the rpm, then configurung your sensors only takes a few minutes. If you don't know what chip your board has (or if it even has one, Dell for example leaves it off most of their boards), you can use the 'sensors-detect' binary from lm_sensors to find out. Word of caution tho, I know my Soyo 6ba+III uses the w83782d, but sensors detect said it was a w83781d on some runs, w83782d on others. So run it several times. -- ~~ Tom Brinkman[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [newbie] Supermount Woes
Alan - I asked several days ago if there is any dangers in using supermount and was assured that there isn't any danger (at least for a single-user system).

Re: [newbie] append="mem=192m" For your memory problems.
Hi James, M is used for Megabytes, and m for millibytes. Now one on this earth uses that. You have a typo. Personally I use append="128MB", and I have no problems. If you have 512 MB of RAM, try changing the append line to: append="mem=500MB" This is a limitation in Linux which should be answered by our Linux gurus from Mandrakesoft or RedHat.

Re: [newbie] Apps Source
Sure. You can go cable or have a T1 line installed. Even on cable it can get a little slow, depending on the time of day. You have a good chip and lots of RAM. I would recommend increasing the cache for RealPlayer. Another options is to get a higher quality graphics video card with a lot of video RAM. Roman "Ronald J.

[newbie] PMfirewall install success
This is to thank the folks in "Newbie" who helped me out on the pmfirewall install. I just did my 5th try and this e-mail is the final test. I show up as totally stealth at Steve Gibsons "Shields UP" site. I can still go on-line and receive e-mail and now if this post goes out I have a totally successful install. Thanks, for the help.

Isn't this how 5.1 worked? If you did the install as a user, each user doing the install ended up with their own copy of StarOffice, but if you did a multi-user install as root, only one copy of the binaries was installed with each user running a setup that copied only what was necessary for that user's personalization and data.

[newbie] Star Office 5.2
The one thing about Windows that I liked more than in Linux was installing programs. If you are honest most will admit that installing programs in Linux can be both fustrating and exasperating. Well someone has at last shown a light at the end of the tunnel. Sun has released Star Office 5.2. I download it for both Windows and for Linux. Yesterday I installed in Win2000 and today I decided to try the install in Linux, hoping that it would not require to much hair pulling. Do you know what I had to do to get Star Office to install in Linux? I had to click on the file. It actually had it's own installation program and installed itself. The GUI was even the same as that used in the Win installation. I was shocked. Happy but shocked. I had never before seen a Linux program do this. My one hope now is that more companies and developers will follow Sun's example and treat Linux users with the same degree of concern and support as they show Window users. If you want to try it the URL is www.sun.com/staroffice The Linux download is 93MB and you need to run the installation program as user not as root. Charles :-)
Re: [newbie] How i mount my externall Zip Drive
Have you tried the steps mentioned in Mandrake's Installation Guide, chapter 8: After Installation? The guide goes: in Terminal (as root)...do # modprobe ppa # mkdir -p /mnt/zip # ln /dev/sd4 /dev/zip # echo '/dev/zip /mnt/zip vfat noauto, user 0 0' \ >>/etc/fstab This works for mine and still is. The Guide also pointed out how to put a link to the zip drive on the desktop. 1. right-click on the desktop and select New - File System Device. 2. in the New File System Device: box, put in Zip.kdelnk 3. click OK 4. on the KFM window, click on Device tab. 5. Put in /dev/zip in the Device box. 6. Put in /mnt/zip in the Mount Point box. 7. Put in vfat in the Filesystem box. You can change the icon as well there. That's it. Hope it helps you.

[newbie] PPP connection for other than root
Hello everybody. Finally last weekend the MD7.1 download was completed (after about 60+ hrs of connection time). I installed it succesfuly. GRUB let me go beyond the 1047 cylinder and my connection to internet is working. I still have lots and lots to things to tune. Ok, one of the things I couldn't resolve by my self is about my PPP connection to internet. If I want to connect I have switch user to Root and then go to drakconf/Network/PPP and choose the connection I previously define. What I dont like about all this is that I have to enter root's password in order to launch drakconf and then several menu/icons entries later I get connected. Is there a way for a regular user (not root) to use a PPP conection and avoid all the menu/icons? Thanks in advance. Hugo

Re: [newbie] Uninstalling Programs
Usually, unless there is an uninstall script included with the program, you have to locate the program and manually delete it. For example if you have installed "foobar" then # locate foobar /usr/bin/foobar /usr/doc/foobar ... and the like. Then # rm /usr/bin/foobar # rm -r /usr/doc/foobar (the -r option if it's a directory) You have to be careful not to break any dependencies. Tar files require a bit more Unix savvy than rpm's.
