Elwyn, Right, well, I've got somewhere! Great, but it didn't help here. I changed my setup and it still happened exactly as before.

[newbie] MDK-10.0 and nvidia drivers
Hi, It seem that in mdk-10..kernel-2.6..you can only use/reboot in the kernel with the nvidia driver installed. This I fopund out after installing a later kernel..installing nvidia driver. If you boot into previous one..well a few screen flashes and then you are in command line. This is a least better than previous versions..just black screen. Was so used in mdk-9.2 to have two or more kernels installed and booting in any one you desire. Are my asumptions correct or did I miss something.

[newbie] Epson printer woes
Greetings, I am having a bit of difficulty getting my Epson StylusColor 480SXU to work on my Mdk 9.2 system. I had managed to get it to work *OK* with the Turboprint driver (v1.86) previously, but I updated to the latest Turboprint driver (v1.87), and I can't for the life of me, get it to work with Turboprint. Even going back to v1.86 proves unsuccessful. What am I doing wrong?? I am now trying to get it to work with the CUPS+Gimp-Print v4.2.5 setup that Mdk provides, but all I can get from my printer for output is a solid black page!! I have used up almost half of a newly filled ink tank trying to get a proper printout. :-/ Can anyone offer any help, or words of encouragement here?

Re: [newbie] How to trouble shoot 'eth0 FAILED'?
Thanks to several tips I found my problem. Turning off 'Network Hotplugging' in MCC networking fixed it. One poster mentioned you could get the same effect by setting MII_NOT_SUPPORTED=no in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0. I have a similar message in /var/log/messages. But, what is Network Hotplugging and where is it located? I can't find any reference to this in MCC (I'm on 9.2, remember). I have installed Linux for the first time and Mdk10 official is the only version I have ever seen. So, I have never seen any other version. For 10 you pick Configure Computer/Network Internet/Manage connections. At this point a dialog about eth0 is displayed. You can change the IP address, DHCP, etc. There is a tab 'Options' and it has a check box labeled 'Network Hotplugging'. I had to uncheck it to fix my problem. Another use told me you can get the same effect by editing /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 and adding/modifing these line ONBOOT=yes MII_NOT_SUPPORTED=yes I have no idea what those lines mean or if they work.

[newbie] grub error 2: bad file or directory type
This one is driving me batty. I have an AMD64 laptop, and I have 3 different versions of Mandrake installed so I can try out the 64-bit version, plus one 9.2 32-bit that I can fall back on. I started out with 9.2 32-bit and installed grub into the MBR for that. I then installed 9.2 64-bit and 10.0 64-bit into other partitions, telling the installer to put grub into that partition instead of the MBR. Then I just copied the appropriate lines out of boot/grub/menu.lst from each of those 64-bit installations into the menu.lst for the 32-bit install. I was able to successfully boot all three. But of course I couldn't leave well enough alone. Mandrake said they weren't going to support my eMachines laptop, which requires some custom tweaks. So I figured I'd give fedora64 core2 a try, and reformatted my Mandrake 10.0 64-bit partition. Did the same trick of copying lines from fedora menu.lst into Mandrake 32-bit menu.lst, everything worked. Didn't like fedora (really gotten used to Mandrake, and like it.) So I wanted to put 10.0 back into that partition and see if I could tweak the kernel myself for the eMachines. Finally, my problem: I've now installed 10.0 64-bit twice (using same hard-drive install files from the first successful install.) Install finishes fine. But each time I try to boot, it tells me: Error 2. Bad file or directory type I can't find a grub messages file that informs me what it can't find. I searched google and found some hits but none really helped. I'm out of ideas. I'm baffled how reinstalling the exact same files as the first time now produces a non-bootable system. I can still get into 9.2 32-bit and 9.2 64-bit. Here is what my working 9.2 64-bit grub entry looks like: title linux64-nonfb kernel (hd0,8)/boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/hda9 noapic devfs=mount acpi=off resume=/dev/hda10 initrd (hd0,8)/boot/initrd.img (kernel line wrapped.) The one that doesn't work looks exactly the same but with different partition numbers. Appreciate all suggestions to get this working again.
