I am running a dual boot system with both Windows XP and Mandrake 10.0 Community. It picked up the Windows XP partition with no problem. The only thing is it mounts it with read only access.

Re: [newbie] switching from fedora core, need some advice
Hi Chris! Welcome to Mandrake. I've been a Fedora user too, and I think you'll come to find that Mandrake gives you great consumer flexibility, while being a very powerful server as well. It's not better than any other linux distro, just different (as they all are). I'll take your questions 1 at a time: Does mandrake have anything like yum? what is package CJB> management like and where can i learn more about it? Yes Very much! One of the best things about Mandrake is a tool called URPMI, which is a wrapper for RPM just like YUM. It maintains a list of available packages, and resolves those dreaded RPM dependencies automatically. The thing that sets URPMI apart is the fact that Mandrake mirrors maintain an hdlist of RPM headers, so instead of having to download every individual RPM header, they are all conveniently located in one file, which makes setting up installs a snap. You can have your mirror via FTP, HTTP, on a set of CDs, local to the hard drive, on an NFS share, even through an SSH tunnel. It has a lot of very powerful features if you want them, but the sum of it is this: man urpmi for more information, google for easy urpmi for quick setup of mirrors. One you're set up, when you know what you want to install (e.g. nmap), all you have to type at the shell is: urpmi nmap and it will take care of everything else for you. There is even a very polished GUI interface (rpmdrake) to URPMI similar to Windows Add/Remove Programs. This mini-HOWTO is good information too if you're not fond of those dense MAN files: http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/eggnbacon/docs/urpmi-howto/ CJB> 2) related to #1 above, i noticed that mandrake 10.0 comes with CJB> kde-3.2. the latest version of kde is 3.2.3. is there any "easy" way CJB> to upgrade? Yes! New updates are released often, and to do an update of all your installed components, URPMI makes it easy. Just type this: urpmi.update -a && urpmi --auto-select and Mandrake will check for updates and automatically install them. You can even schedule this in a cron job (great for servers). If you like bleeding edge, there is the Cooker. Cooker is the development branch of Mandrake. By setting up URPMI to include the cooker mirrors, you use the same URPMI commands, but you get updates much more frequently. The downside is that they may be less stable, but I've rarely had a problem. CJB> 3) there is some issue about the new kernel and dual booting with winxp CJB> (i've read about it on the fedora mailing list). does mandrake have a CJB> similar problem? it would seem like the answer is yes, since its a 2.6 CJB> kernel problem. I'm afraid I can't answer this question for you, since I run only linux natively (I use XP too, just on a separate machine). I would assume since it is kernel related then there might be a problem, but Mandrake updates tend to get released much faster than Fedora, so it will probably be fixed quicker. You might want to check the Mandrake Bugzilla at http://qa.mandrakesoft.com and find the issue (or file one yourself), track it, and they'll let you know when a fix is found. CJB> 4) i'm tired of manual configuring things with vim...;) since mandrake CJB> is suppose to be the leader in "linux desktop computing", i'm hoping CJB> that there are gui configuration tools for pretty much >everything<. is CJB> this true?

It's the editor. Standard methodology is: save the new file under a temporary name rename the old file to the backup name rename the new file to the correct name That does break hard links, so usually there are also preferences to make them do the backup by copying the file. Some big OSs do the backups themselves, but we're talking mainframes and minis. VMS, George... Try googling "File Generation Number". One of the best error messages of all time. MaxiMOP was an operating system that ran on top of George on ICL1900 mainframes. (If you'd ever used George, you'd know why.) As an OS, MaxiMOP needed to keep a large number of files open, but George limited it to something low. To get round this MaxiMOP renamed files it had "open" to "MAXIFILE", with different file generation numbers. Of course that only made it harder, but still possible, for someone in the George world to open the file and make it unavailable to MaxiMOP. MaxiMOP would then tell its user that the "File Has Mysteriously Disappeared." -- Richard Urwin Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Can you ping the router from other computers on the network? If so, is it only the wireless connection you can not ping from? Are you running a firewall on the wireless computer? Can you access the Internet using the wireless connection through the router? Can you access setup on the router using the wireless connection?

You want to stealth this port on your firewall to the outside world. Using Shorewall 2.x - Real simple. In your /etc/shorewall/rules file, simply add this line: DROPnet fw tcp 11 Restart and you're good to go. Some notes - DROP will "stealth" the port, but you can always use REJECT to actively refuse the connection. I personally think the security difference is negligible and it is better to use REJECT for its testing benefits (The Shorewall guys agree with me) The Shorewall Documentation is pretty good, and available at: http://www.shorewall.net/Documentation_Index.html Also, Mandrake has a product (called Mandrake Network Firewall), which has a VERY nice web interface to shorewall. You can get the RPMs for free if you're running 10.0 by typing urpmi mnf. This installs a lot of other stuff though, so I would recommend only doing it on a computer that will be a dedicated firewall. Hope that helps!

Several people have already responded, offering suggestions as to how you might solve your problem. Have you tried any of those? What happened? Also, other than you are attempting to get 10.0 PowerPack up and running, you have provided no information on your system. Please tell us about your hardware, particularly: CPU Motherboard RAM Video card -- there are all kinds of nvidia cards out there, so be specific about chipset and memory. Is it onboard or a separate card? Monitor/display Any other OS installed? Hard drive(s) Laptop or desktop? FWIW, I'm a bit dubious about the nv driver being the source of your trouble. The nvidia drivers provide various performance enhancements, particularly 3D, but the plain old nv drivers should give you some kind of usable display. -- cmg Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

KDE always uses arts for sound. But the _sound system_ (the arts daemon) uses either ALSA or OSS drivers. I think that you, since the ALSA module is built into the 2.6.xx kernels, may be better to have xmms use the arts plug-in so KDE can control the priority, but switch the sound system (menu>system>configuration>sound>Sound System) to ALSA. Then there shouldn't be any more scheduling conflicts. My "KDE is starting" is clear, so are the media players for movies, mp3s, oggs, and disks. > Does it matter?

I'm thinking if this holds up, then maybe the problem is that kppp handles prefix numbers on the initial dialup but not subsequently on redial due to a cutoff.Could that make sense ? Somehow it does not handle the 1470 prefix on redial, but that of course does not account for why I am getting poor email download in the first place, that is, that I'm getting cut off during a pop3 download. Wanadoo my ISP may be rationalising the use of their equipement, I don't know, though I strongly suspect it, but they would hardly want to cut users off mid email download. That I find unlikely. It is not in their best interest. Especially high traffic user like me.

Shot in the dark here as it's a long time since I was on dial up but I needed to use 1470 with BT Internet .
