[newbie] Popfile dies. Why?
Hi, I installed Popfile (0.20.0a-1mdk from Contrib) yesterday and it appeared to run junt fine. Today, however, it has started dying on me. Usually it runs for a few minutes but then suddenly stops, and it always appears to happen when it is checking for and downloading mail. The connection is lost to ports 110 and 8080. # service -s | grep popfile popfile is dead but the subsystem is locked # service popfile restart Stopping POPFile: kill: usage: kill [-s sigspec | -n signum | -sigspec] [pid | job]... or kill -l [sigspec][ OK ] Starting POPFile:[ OK ] [EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# A copy of POPFile appears to be running. Attempting to signal the previous copy. Waiting 10 seconds for a reply. The other POPFile failed to signal back, starting new copy [EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# Other people seem to have similar problems, in Linux as well as Windows, but I haven't found any solution. Anyone? -- Regards Björn Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com Join the Club : http://www.mandrakeclub.com

I think you use the digital output and the blinking light on the amplifier means it's not getting a (recognised) signal. In alsamixer digital input and output is labeled IEC958.

The moral is, if you must have a WinModem, get one with a Lucent chipset. I haven't found one yet that I couldn't get to work with the free driver, and the whole modem costs less than the Conexant driver. Or better yet, get an external serial modem (I know, some computers don't even have serial ports anymore) and it will work right out of the box. Beware of USB modems--some have no Linux drivers, but some do. Do your research first if you decide to get one. e Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

It small but really buging me. hello robi Complaining about not finding something usually means the package isn't on the path. Have you tried to locate it? As for running mixed versions of the browser that can only lead to problems. I've tried it and I know. :-) Uninstall all firefox/mozilla that you have and then do a clean reinstall of the MDK package with urpmi and see if that fixes things. Funny that I've never had a problem with Konq using javascript though Java and flash sometimes have problems. Could just be dumb luck or an avoidance of IE only sites :) Also just about every browser I know will crash on badly designed sites. IE, which I have to use at work, bombs constantly on me. :) For multimedia there's a plugin for mplayer that works flawlessly for me. :-) ttfn John -- *** Composed on a 100% Microsoft Free Computer Guaranteed Virus Free Mandrake Linux 10.0 OE *** Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

[newbie] Can't preview files in KDE 3.2
After installing Mandrake 10.0 everything worked fine, file previews as well. Then I installed some packages and compiled and installed The Gimp 2 and later I noticed that I could no longer preview files in Konqueror as a normal user. However, as root I can still preview them. I checked that no ordinary user, even new users, can preview files. To me, it looks as if it's got something to do with file permissions, so I checked the kde3 libraries but all files there are executable by all users. I've tried many other things, even booting from kernel 2.6.3-13mdk, but none has worked. So I'd very much appreciate your help.

Re: [newbie] RAID Driver for Mandrake 10

How do I load Mandrake 10, have it setup a driver for the RAID array, and setup dual boot? Unfortunately, I need XP for some work applications. Well, unfortunately SATA winRAIDs don't work that well with linux. Your easiest option for a dual-boot is to lose the RAID0 array. Is it imperative that you have it or do you just want it? -- /g Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com Join the Club : http://www.mandrakeclub.com
