[newbie-it] masterizzare
una delle poche cose che mi teneva ancora legato a uindos era la masterizzazione. mi sono messo davanti al pc e alla fine sono riuscito a capire come funzionano programmi come eroaster o gcombust...naturalmente ho fatto delle prove con piccoli files, jpg, testo, html etc. a questo punto ho deciso di farmi un archivio tar.gz delle directory home dei tre utenti, per poterle masterizzare su un cd e installare una versione piu aggiornata di mdk (uso ancora la 7.2!) ho capito anche come funziona gzip...e ho tirato fuori tre bei files tar.gz con dentro tutto quello che c'era nelle tre directory home...di dimensioni variabili, dai 50 ai 100 Mb. ecco il problema: cerco di copiare su un cd questi tre files...ma ad un certo punto si blocca il programma, anzi i programmi (qualunque programma di masterizzazione io usi)...o mi copiano solo parzialmente i files...c'è qualcosa che mi sfugge? forse i files sono di dimensioni troppo esagerate? suggerimenti? grazie, osva salutatemi a bilgheiz

[newbie] Where did my partition go?
Hi, I had an NT4 NTFS partition (~1.9 Gig) and a FAT32 partition (~1.9 Gig). I used Harddrake to delete both of them and create a single FAT32 partition out of them (~3.8 Gig). When I looked at the properties of the directory mount point using Konqueror I got a size of ~1.9 Gig! Rebooting did not remove the discrepancy between Harddrake and Konqueror. Harddrake showed no empty (unused) partition either. I went and installed win2k on this new FAT32 partition (because B?ll G?te? has a strangle hold on me, and not because I like any of those !nice OSs). Win2k did the same thing. Explorer tells me the drive was ~1.9 Gig but the Disk Management tool says it is ~3.8 Gig. The disk management tool showed no empty (unused) partition, like Harddrake. Can someone please tell me what is going on here and how to fix it please? Seedkum Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

I beleive the only default one is the AIM protocol. Umm, just to clear things up here... the so-called ICQ2000 protocol is in actual fact Oscar, and that is the exact same prototol for AIM. So when you suggest to load the plugin for ICQ you are technically doing things the hard way. The fact is that it is now so far that in GAIM you do not have to load any plugin for ICQ, as you just add an account using the Oscar protocol, but with your ICQ number in the place of your Username. The plugin should have been removed some time back as it is misleading... and although it works (sometimes not too well)) it's totally unneccesary.

Re: [newbie] Galeon * Mozilla
Galeon is basically a GUI for Mozilla, with some features added. It is directly linked to mozilla, and cannot run without it. They are not interdependant, Galeon needs Mozilla, Mozilla does not require anything from Galeon. You cannot upgrade one without the other. That's actually the reason I dropped Galeon altogether..too much fuss each time there was a new release. You will have to uninstall Galeon, upgrade Mozilla and then install the new Galeon..

Re: [newbie] Mozilla's bookmarks and adress book
The place the files are in, depends on which version of windows you are using. For example, in my win2000 they are placed at Documents and Settings\Application Data\Mozilla...(here comes the profile directory), but it is in a different directory if you are using win95/98/ME. Tip, look up the Netscape/Mozilla release notes to find out in which directory the property files are installed depending on the OS' version. After that, you only have to copy the files addressbook, bookmarks, your mail, etc to the right directory in your linux partition. Currently this directory is .mozilla (a hidden one) located at your home directory. This procedure worked for me, I use mdk8.1 and Netscape 6.2.1. Hope I have helped you, good luck !

I think mmost people set /boot to 50 MB or so, and that's generally the smallest partition on a Linux filesystem. Dave The reason that you would want a partition smaller than 32 meg (the reason I do, anyway) is because 32 megs is roughly 16 times more than what you need for a boot partition. The files in the /boot dir don't even take up enough space for three regular floppies. I see no reason why there should be a smallest size restriction on a filesystem. It should be simply however small you choose to make it. (IF your filesystem has no restrictions of that nature.) If ext3 gives you the freedom to make the /boot mount partition whatever size you want it to be, I certainly see no reason not to use that ability, or even ignore it.

Re: [newbie] backup app for LM 8.0
Hey, I was reading an article in Linux Journal and I thought about your problem. Evidently, this problem has already been addressed by someone else, and much more elegantly also. This was an article in the Dec 2001 issue of LJ, the article was titled Guard Against Data Loss with Mondo Rescue. Mondo is the app's name, and it's got some interesting features. Check this out: 1)Automatically saves either to ISO images on the hard drive or to a CDRW drive directly. 2) Capable of cloning an installation of Linux 3) Backs up a filesystem running on one FS and restores it to another FS type 4) Restructure partitions, e.g., shrinking/enlarging, reassign devices, add hard drives BEFORE you partition and format your drives! Restores your data and amends /etc/lilo.conf and /etc/fstab accordingly !! 5) Will even back up Windows systems, including the boot sectors! 6) Also will verify the integrity of your existing system with the use of a previous backup. It's main strength seems to be it's ability to handle backup and rewriting of hard drive boot sectors. Check this out: www.microwerks.net/~hugo Good luck. I'm going to download it as well. Even if it's 1/4 as good as this article said, it's going to be worth it! On Saturday 02 February 2002 17:31, you wrote: What backup apps are there for LM 8.0 that actually work?

HTML may be simpler than some languages out there but that doesn't mean it doesn't have its complexities. Having 47 different font tag changes in a document isn't good coding practice, but it's what I end up with after FrontPage gets ahold of my average page. (Well, they weren't there before). The computer may not understand that I really DO want to keep the same font throughout the same page. That's why I like Quanta - I can code the way I want, then see it immediately (though admittedly it doesn't do too well with Server Side Includes, but that's what Konq is for). Style sheets are also a Good Thing, though not all older browsers use them well. Another good link is the Backward Compatability Viewer at http://www.delorie.com/web/wpbcv.html - this lets you see your webpage under virtually any still-used browser out there. Heck, if you want mail me off the list and I'll send you my bookmarks for HTML editing. It took me about 4 days of crash course studying to learn most of the new tricks, and I hadn't touched HTML since about version 2.0. The three books I have on my desk, in addition to the websites, are: QUE's Special Edition Using HTML 4, Fifth Edition (probably not the most recent, but it's what the library had), by Molly E. Holzschlag. This one is good for beginner to midrange resources, sort of like a readable HTML bible. Effective Web Design, Second Edition, by Ann Navarro. This one covers the topic of XHTML/XML fairly well. JavaScript for the World Wide Web, 3rd Edition, by Tom Negrino and Dori Smith. I realize not everyone uses JavaScript but I found the book pretty well written. Hope that helps, David R ?? :-) -- Hanan Z.

Most of them - especially M$ Front Page - assumes that the reader of the pages so created uses EXACTLY the same browser, i.e. M$ Internet Explorer. In fact, that's a perversion of the original idea, created by Tim Berners-Lee at CERN about 1995 : a simple mark-up-language, readable by all and everyone owning a simple browser, for instance Mosaic. During the first years, several improved browsers appeared, i.e. Netscape, but eventually commercialazition entered the scene : Micro$oft ! - The result : fragmentation, imcompatibilities, arrogance and merciless rip-off of naive costumers prevails. Now Hanan, why on earth use a mediocre WYSIWYG-editor when it's so simple to write real HTML ? If you have something to tell the world, use the simplest possible editor and reach everyone !

Re: [newbie] DiskDrake And WinXP
I think that Linux doesn't support ntfs partitions, I am not sure. Anyway, if you want to resize your ntfs partition to make possible installing mandrake, you will need something like partition magic, but there is partition star as well, a shareware program, you can use it for 30 days.

Re: [newbie] DiskDrake And WinXP
PMagic isnt sharewhere. You can download a 'demo' from their site that will show you what the app will do if you pay them. But you cannot make write any changes to your partition table. If you use the iMesh file sharing program, you can do a search for partition magic and can usually find one that says Partitoin Magic Pro 7 FULL. It is a realativly small download.

[newbie] Video Card Support. (Was build PC)
I am thinking about purchasing an ATI Radeon 8500 DV video card, but am unsure. I have looked on the Mandrake site, where there is a lot of known hardware listed. Radeon cards seem to be supported in the kernel, so is it correct to assume that there are no drivers necessary for Radeon cards in general?? While there is a long list of known video cards for both Mandrake 8.0 and 8.1, there does not seem to be a list of video cards as seen at installation time??? Lastly, I am concerned as to whether the TV tuner on the Radeon 8500 DV card is supported in some way in Linux. Does anyone know??? Cheers, Brian Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?
