Open a terminal => type "su" and then put in your root password => type "mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom" => double click on HOME, and then click the down arrow until you're in the / directory, find /mnt, double click that, then double click on /mnt/cdrom => you should now see your stuff... When you want to unmount that drive, in the same term you just had open, type "umount /dev/cdrom" or "eject" It would appear that for some reason, your automount is not working correctly...so this is only a hacked fix - not a perm fix... stephen kuhn - owner == illawarra computer services a kuhn media australia company http://kma.0catch.com -- * This message was composed on a 100% Microsoft free computer * We expressly refuse to utilise Microsoft DRM encoded documents -- Laugh and the world laughs with you, snore and you sleep alone.

[newbie] T40 & X4.3
Last November I was able to configure X 4.3 on a Thinkpad T40 (257551U -Radeon M7 w/ 32Mb) with Xinerama enabled so that the internal LCD and an external LCD monitor formed a single contiguous desktop. This was using Mandrake9.2 I recently upgraded to Mandrake10 with kernel 2.6.3, but still uses X 4.3. The same XF86Config-4 file no longer allows two monitors...specifically, only the external monitor is used. There are no hardware changes. Any ideas what might have changed to cause the problem.

[newbie] Very Slow Samba Network browsing
Has anyone run into this with Samba 3.0.2? I'm running a dual-CPU server ( Tyan board with Dual-1800+ Athlon MP CPU's and 1 GB DDR Ram), with Samba on it ( and that's about all ) for 5 PC's in a network. The shares are browseable by most, but it takes a long time for the shares to show up. Network connections are good, as I have no problem browsing anything else on the network, and Email and Internet activity is fast through my Front-End Firewall Server. The server is running Mandrake 9.2 and has been flawless until I updated Samba from 2.2.8a to the current version. Even after the upgrade it was running pretty fast. Ping time from the PC's to the server does not exceed 1 ms, so it doesn't seem to be a network card or config problem on the server which is running dual 3Com 3C905 onboard NIC's. I've set up the lmhosts file in Linux and Windows on the PC's, as well as on the server but browsing to this particular server takes about 30 to 40 seconds for each folder that gets opened. It seems to be a bit slower on the Windows XP Pro systems than it is on Linux using SMB4K or LinNeighborhood ( which says something all by itself ), and the documentation I've found is either useless or has no mention of this type of problem.

Like Derek said, RSS is Really Simple Syndication, or Rich Site Summary, or RDF Site Summary, depending on who you ask. It's an XML-type document that describes the "stories" on a page. A user can put the RSS URL in an aggregator and the aggregator displays it. For Linux, there are a few aggregators: Liferea (rpm available for 9.2 or 10), Syndigator (now in GTK2), Straw (don't know much about it). There's also an RSS panel plugin for Mozilla/Firefox. I'm looking forward to the day when weblogs, news sites, email, usenet etc. are all integrated in one interface like an aggregator: read a story on the net via the aggregator, post a reply directly from the aggregator, or email the author, same with usenet and mail.

Re: [newbie] bin
David Williams wrote: I have installed 10.0 on top of 9.1 Most everything seems to be OK except that I can't run whatever.bin files anymore. I take a really simple approach to stuff and I used konq for most stuff including this. It won't run from the comand line either. Is there some sort of file assoc that I have to force? If it won't run from the command line, it's probably not a file assocation problem. It looks like for some weird reason your file permissions have been reset. Type "ls -l *.bin" and see what you get -rwxr-xr-x 1 david david 249 Feb 20 2004 somescript.bin If you get something like -rw-r--r-- 1 david david 249 Feb 20 2004 somescript.bin (i.e. no "x"s in there), you need to type chmod +x *.bin which will make all .bin files in that directory executable. Also check that you still own the files and they haven't switched to being owned by root.
