I think he meant the binary setup program xconfigurator..

[newbie] how can i improve vnc responsiveness?
i'm remote accessing my Mandrake Linux box thru vnc. it's almost unbearably slow. the speed doesn't seem to differ much regardless of color depth, i've tried 8, 15 and 16, so for now, i'm using 15. i'm wondering if upgrading my 10mbps hub to a 100mbps switch will make much of a diff, since the cpu utilization on both the server/client doesn't seem to be much, around 20-30% or is my bottleneck somewhere else? thanks.

RE: [newbie] Postfix help
I assume that you have an internal network with private IP address's and NAT? make sure the linux box's internal IP is set as an interface for postfix. in your /etc/postfix/main.cf look for this: inet_interfaces = all make sure its unhashed. (or you can manually specify.) inet_interfaces = 202.165.23.244, localhost, 192.168.0.1 that will make postfix listen on all the relevant interfaces. then further down, you'll see this: mynetworks = something. you should make it something like this: mynetworks = 192.168.0.0/24, 127.0.0.0/8 (assuming thats your internal ip block.) there is other stuff, but that all relates to how you set it up... and without knowing that, its alittle hard to help. rgds Frank -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Tuan tran Sent: Friday, 7 June 2002 3:27 AM To: Mandrake users Subject: [newbie] Postfix help I am setting up my own mail server and seem like I have few more steps to go.

Windows and Linux are both Operating systems. they are both used to fullfill similar tasks. therefore, when you use the Linux installer, it will overwrite Windows partitions unless you tell it not to. Linux and windows can coexist, but it takes a bit of experience with partitions .. some practice, and some trial and error. now, if you forgot your login/password and cannot use your computer, it's a good chance to start all over, since you will probably need to reinstall everything anyway. do the Linux installation process again. this time, choose the expert install, so you can choose how to partition your hard drive. this will let you choose how much space you want to leave to Linux, as well as restore your windows installation. when you come to the partitioning stage of the installer, do as follows: ( the partition manager is pretty intuitive and i think you can follow these steps just by reading the captions in the buttons. ) first of all: select and delete all existing partitions, one by one. All of your harddrive space should be displayed as a white bar, meaning all of the space is free. second: create your first partition with filesystem FAT32. ( i think it's labeled "Win98 FAT32" in the installer ) use the sliders in the 'create partition' dialog to give it as much space as you like, but remember you need some space for linux too. leave about 2 GB AT LEAST for Linux. the option "mount point" is the folder inside of which you want Linux to show your Windows 98 files. "/mnt/windows" or any name you like, inside of /mnt/ is a good option. third: as the new fat32 partition shows now in the dialog ( it will be displayed in blue )select the remaining "white" space, and click 'create' button again. this time, choose 'ext3' filesystem, give this partition all of the space you have left, minus 500 MB. you will use those 500 MB on the next step. The mount point for this partition will be the root directory. in mount point, simply select the slash " / ". fourth: you should have the blue fat32 partition and one red ext3 partition and a little 500 MB blank space left. select that blank space and create a filesystem of type "Linux swap". pull the slider all the way to the right, to make sure you waste no space. the mount point for this one, is "swap". now you should have the blue fat32, the red ext3 and the last green Linux Swap. now, this is the importat step: - once you have made all of the partitions, choose to format them all. once you are done with this, exit the installer. reboot your computer, and reinstall your windows 98. as you complete your windows installation you will notice that your hard-drive space will not show the space being used by Linux partitions. that's the way it is. Windows cannot see or display filesystems other than FAT, so while you are in windows, Linux will be invisible. once you are happy again with your windows installation ( you may have some problems downloading all the porn again ;o) ) you can get back to installing Linux. ( when you are installing more than one operating system in a computer, it's always better to install windows first, since it's more agressive on the boot settings and would overwrite your Linux boot entry no matter what you did, and it would cause more problems. ) once you enter the Linux installation again, make sure you don't delete or format any partitions, as they are already ready-to-go and you don't want to risk formatting your windows partition AGAIN by mistake. Always read the help messages displayed in the lower part of the screen. they may help you understand what you are doing. that's why they are there. And please remember: Logins are important in Linux. when the installer asks you for an administrator password and/or usernames/passwords, use names you can remember, if not write them down. Finally, once the installation is complete, reboot your computer and you should see a dialog on every start-up from now on asking if you want to boot Linux or Windows. I hope this helps anyone who reads it, i don't think i'm too good at explaining things, but this should be a start for you to read.. anyway, didn't the magazine that

Am I correct? The easy way to change the root password is At the linux boot screen, type linux single and when it comes up you will see a black screen with a prompt like this # Now you type # passwd And you can change the password to something you know (like 111) Now to help you more than that you need to run this command # uname -a and write down what it says, so we knoe what we are dealing with. LOTS of linux disks have appeared in magazines, and we need to know which one. After that # reboot will get you started Your login name is root Your password is 111 Now you can add other users and so on. If it is MandrakeLinux, I can instruct you further on how to set up users and to set up autologin, but I really really need to know the version, which the uname output will give me unequivocally.

Re: [newbie] problem using linux
Hi, If you can get into Windows and want to remove Linux then the easiest way would probably be to run fdisk and then delete the Linux partitions. If you want to auto-login when you reach the graphical prompt then you can set this in the Mandrake Control Centre once you are logged in, but you will need to login manually at least once to be able to set this up.

Re: [newbie] problem using linux
If you installed Mandrake 8.2, and if I have understood you correctly, you should have had the option of logging in as a single user without having to enter your user name and password every time you use the operating system, as in Windoze! Perhaps some one can suggest a way of making this alteration via the root password without having to reinstall. Sursum Corda Errol Stagg - Original Message - From: "Helio S.

It is best to leave the default compiler set to that with which the kernel was compiled which in 8.2 was gcc-2.9.6 the mplayer build problem has been discussed numerous times. The aversion it has for 2.9.6 is because of RH using a pre 2.96 and calling it 2.9.6. This is not the case with mandrake so the --disable-gcc-checking option can be used without problem. Should you still prefer to do the build with gcc3.0 then; Open a terminal that you can set aside to be used for building with gcc3.0 su to root and enter # export CC=gcc-3.0.4 >From that point, unless you install a new kernel any program built from That terminal will use gcc3.0 Charles Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

I also started looking into my own scanner again and saw that development has been actively progressing.
