Re: [newbie] Informacion
Pues si es mejor pero no es para principiantes, si no has tenido experiencia con algn sistema operativo tipo unix, va a ser realmente dficil que lo configures y lo manejes bien. Para que le saques un buen provechio si no eres experto necesitas instalarlo de tal manera que accedas al modo grfico directamente, bueno vamos por el pricipio; la forma ms facil de instalarlo es haciendo que el computador arranque con el CD, debes cambiar en el BIOS la secuencia en que la computadora buscar un disco con sitema operativo para arrancar y hacer que el primer lugan en donde lo busque sea EL CDROM, es la forma en la que lo hago yo es ms sencillo para mi pero hay otra forma, reinica el computador en modalida DOS inserta el CD y ejecuta: X:\DOSUTILS\AUTOBOOT.BAT "X" es la unidad del CDROM y eso es todo se puede utlizar el asistente en espaol, la primera vez te aconsejo que intales todo por default de esa manera no tendrs mayor problema. Eso es todo espero que te ayude. esavlem wrote: Deseo saver por que razon no puedo instalar el linux mandrake, lo tengo en cd, distribuido por la Maximum PC un cd completo pero no se como imstalarlo realmente, ademas no entiendo eso del GNU pue no se de que se trata favor indiquenme que devo hacer y que sera lo que necesito pues no entiendo y segun tengo entendido, linux es mejor que win98 y si es asi y no me da tantos problemas lo quisiera instalar en mi computador..atte.Manuel EmilioFuturo usuario de linux
Re: [newbie] Reverse Windoze Internet sharing
Hi, Last night I just make Wingate 3.0 work in my house, 2 computers interconected in a LAN and they share internet acces throught a dial-up access and we boot have ICQ working. Enable ICQ service in the gate requieres an aditional immplemantation of UDP mapping service. If you are still interesting on it e-mail me back. CARLOS John Aldrich wrote: On Thu, 11 Nov 1999, you wrote: A few reason , 1. We are talking about a dial up line , not a full time connection. 2. We both use icq, as well as other software which works off of different ports. if I remember what I read. I would have to enable the ports to allow use of these programs. The Second edition (I agree, still waiting on the third , but i will not go to 2000) allows traffic on these ports by defualt. 3. My wife's system tends to connect at better speeds than my machine, (She gets 28800, i get 26400) Do you require more?? Nope...but I would like to point out that Linux *will* work just fine sharing a dial-up line. :-) (Oh, as for the connection difference... I read somewhere that MS has a tendancy to overstate the actual connect speed, whereas Linux will give you EXACTLY what the modem says it connected at...) John

Re: [Re: [newbie] SBlive in Mandrake 2.2.9]
I really thanks Martin ans sorry about my little english, I need some help with this becuse I downloaded the files from Cretive labs page: http://developer.soundblaster.com/linux/ and the files are: README mod_conf install_emu10k1 emu10k1.o-2.2.5-15 emu10k1.o-2.2.10 emu10k1.o-2.0.36 My firs problem after read the "README" file was "install_emu10k1" did't work and I tried manual installation. Please tell me if my steps have mistakes: 1. Determine your kernel sound modules installation location (usually /lib/modules/2.x.y/misc) I did it the driversare in "/lib/modules/2.2.9-19mdk/misc" 2. Copy the appropriate driver to that location as emu10k1.o (eg. /lib/modules/2.x.y/misc/emu10k1.o) I tried it butwhat is the right file? for my kernel version? 3. Unload all existing soundcard drivers, including soundcore May be here is the problem, how must I do it? 4. Remove all old soundcard references from /etc/conf.modules In my "conf.modules" file are not sound drivers is a file with 3 lines 5. Add a new reference to the driver in /etc/conf.modules: (eg. "alias sound emu10k1" or "alias char-major-14 emu10k1") I use "alias sound emu10k1" and the other but doesn't work 6. If your kernel is compiled with version information, add the following lines to /etc/conf.modules after the previous statement: pre-install emu10k1 insmod soundcore post-remove emu10k1 rmmod soundcore How can I verify if "my kernel is compiled with version information"? 7. Load the driver: "modprobe emu10k1" PLEASE HELP!! I spent US$200 in this card and it doesnt work!! help again. - Original Message - "Martin White" [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: For the time being pick up the modules from Creative's site, copy them to '/lib/modules/2.2.9-19mdk/misc' (or whereever) and do an 'insmod -f sblive' to get it going.

RE: [newbie] For all spanish speaking users
Vivo en Ecuador Y tengo el mismo problema, quiero salirme de la movida Windows pero veo que por el momento no es posible (soy muy aficionado a los juegos), se que es posible instalar linux en un disco particionado y si se tiene 2 discos es posible instalarlo en uno de ellos y elegir con que sistema operativo se bootea la máquina. Ya eche a perder los datos de "mis documentos" por instalar linux sin muchas precauciones, alguien me podría decir como hacerlo para tener a la vez ambos sistemas operativos funcionando en mi CPU y no perder los datos Windows?

3.2GB of memory WOW!!! maybe you mean 3.2MB od space on hd Well here is the help: Go to the BIOS of your computer and make the first bootable device your CDROM whe you reboot your computer put the mandrake CD in the CDROM drive and it must be enough to begin the intalaltion process.
