Re: [newbie] error in Enlightenment
Try deleting your ~/.enlightenment/user_autosaved.cfg and see what happens. Cody Noam Shifrin wrote: Hi, If someone could help me with this problem it would be much appreciated. When I tried to install a theme in Enlightenment I suddenly couldn't access any of the menus or even log out. After restarting the 'puter and logging back in I could see the theme had stuffed the Enlightenment installation. After uninstalling and reinstalling the RPM's when I try and log in as a user the error message: missing required data in "999{" appears and I can't log in. However when I log in as root Enlightenment comes up properly. What does the error message mean and how can I fix it? Noam
Re: [newbie] 7.2 -- XFree -- is my monitor going to blow up?
Try starting x like this: startx myxlog and then once x starts, just open up that myxlog that you created and on the top line it should say which version started on that command Cody Adrian Smith wrote: greetings all. just installed 7.2 yesterday. the jury is still out but it mostly seems to be working. my printer works at last tho, happy 'bout that. but the question -- i don't quite know if i can describe this so you will understand, but i will try. =) the very left edge of my monitor (as i'm looking at it) is displaying a very thin slice of whatever is actually about 3-4 inches from the left edge of the screen. thus if i move a window to the very edge, that slice of it will disappear under the display of whatever is 3-4 inches over. hmmm... is that english? i have everything shut down now, but do y'all think this might cause actual damage? i had no problems under X3.x. i think i'm using X4 now --("think" they all ask, while installing i went for 4, it installed, but didn't work out. it kicked me back and i went for 3, it also installed (so both of them are on the system) and looked ok. when i type check with the -version switch from a terminal it says version 4, but how do i know for sure which version is actually running? i have been thru numereous attempts at reconfiguring both monitor video card, so far i can't get rid of this strange effect. i'll have to plug at it some more. so the main thing is how do i check my running vesion of X. thanks much Adrian Smith 'de telepone dude Telecom Dept. x 7042 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [newbie] unable to parse /mnt/var/lib etc. L-M 7.2
I have had this error a few times. Normally I got it when I was trying to use a CD I had burned myself with a CD Rom drive that was very particular about what kind of CDs it would take. The way I fixed it was to burn it again on a different brand of CD, or switch out the CD Rom drive for one that is a little more accepting.

I get past the partioning stage to the actual install and I get this message: unable to parse /mnt/var/lib/urpmi/hdlist/cdrom1.cz. When I click OK , I get returned to the disk partioning section. I have no idea what this message means or what I can do about it. thanks Bill.
Re: [newbie] Mandrake 7.2 and Sounblaster Live!
For some reason, a lot of people have problems with SB Live! cards in linux, and it's lots of weird, different stuff. If no one here can give you a good fix, I would suggest http://opensource.creative.com as a good place to start looking for a solution. You can search their mailing list/read the documentation/download new drivers there.

Anyone else has/had this problem? and a solution for it? Thanks, Philippe
