[newbie] E-mail Clients
Hello, everybody! I'm currently using the Netscape e-mail client along with Kmail; I'm looking for a client which features message filters and search and multiple pop accounts, better if designed for Gnome; there's a lot of programs, what would you suggest me? Thank you! Corrado

Did you managed to get CSC installed? Corrado Monte Milanuk wrote: as with most things *nix, the answer is... it depends. If you are looking for gtk I believe balsa is the current lead contestant. Supposedly there is an Outlook (multipurpose communications) knockoff called Evolution that is on its way from the gnome folks. For now, you have balsa, and maybe CSCmail If it doesn't have to be gtk, just easy on the eyes, mahogany isn't too bad. I had some issues w/ it not wanting to work for me. YMMV. Or, you could used mutt in an Eterm. That way you have mutt's capabilities (pretty much top shelf) w/ clickable menu's. Me, I'm going to grit my teeth and use pine (gritting my teeth because of the lack of threading) and wait and hope and pray for XPine to get to a more usable state.

[newbie] Printer and Scanner
Hi, every body! I've made a little selection on what I could buy: does anybody owns a HP 930 printer? I don't think I'll buy a SCSI scanner, not now, anyway... My budget is very low, I think I'll use Windows as a Linux utility, for the months to come... Or do you think Canon 620P or HP 3200C could work under Linux?!? Corrado
[newbie] New hardware
I suppose I'm quiet lucky, 'cause I *still* have to buy a printer, a scanner and possibly a webcam for my home pc... So, I'd really like some advice based on your own experience: let me know if your printer, scanner or webcam works with no problem at all with Mandrake 7.0... I'm open to *any* suggestion, but could somebody tell me if *there is* a good serial port scanner which I can use? I know about sane, but first hand impression would be very useful! I've seen a Canon BJC 5100 sold at a lower price: any experience with this printer? Thank you! Corrado
[newbie] OT: free internet
I know this is not directly tied to Linux matter... but a friend of mine needs help: can somebody tell me how can he sign for a free internet access in New York? And does he need a different modem or european standard device will work as well in the States? Thank you, and forgive me for this OT... Corrado
[newbie] Creative Cd Rw
Uh.. I forgot... :-) Has anybody experienced any problem with Creative Labs 4424 Cd Rw? Many Thanks! Corrado

I was forced to choose at least 120 seconds for both, now everything works fine! Corrado.
[newbie] Strange connection...
What I've just discovered is quiet stunning: when I try to connect with a provider different from the one set during installation, all goes smooth except when I try to log on a IRC or ICQ server... every time it seems the server does not even exists... that's what X-Chat tell me... KXicq too does not even managed to connect... There is anything I can do? Thank you! Corrado

[newbie] Reinstalling Windows
I have to reinstall W98: there is something I have to be warned? I did'nt installed LILO on the MBR, but at the beginning of a Linux partition... Corrado
Re: [newbie] Things are going to change?
Of course you're right, but the fact itself that somebody care to include a driver for Linux AND in the box, is something worthing note...

Another little good step... Fine. But: Just do not get overentusiastic about this. Unless you got a source code on CD, driver is likely to break whenever you upgrade the kernel (more-or-less). And in a year from now, "Botticelli" will loose interest in this modem... You got the pattern? BTW, this is not the first winmodem with linux "support".

Re: [newbie] Netscape 6
Yes, indded... ^__^ I just read Anthony's reply... now I'm a little puzzled: in a magazine, they said Netscape 6 is more stable, by this point of view... So, I supposed N6 *is* java enabled... Or there is something I have to do, in order to make java work? Sorry if I'm a little dumb, yesterday I had to reinstall Mandrake... :-( Corrado Paul wrote: On Mon, 22 May 2000, Corrado wrote: I suppose Netscape 6 in java-enabled.. Am I wrong?

[newbie] Audioconferencing
Now, before I fall asleep :-) , a BIG help about another topic is needed: I'll be very grateful if someone could give me a full introdutcion to audioconferencing, I need to be told all from scratch, in fact... Quiet silly, if you think my first computer was a Commodore VIC 20, but that's the truth... To be more specific, I'd like to know what I have to do in order to get in touch with people which use Netmeeting (you know, those Lost Soul that still think Win-that-thing is an os...).

[newbie-it] Webcam e c.
Salve! Per ragioni sia personali che professionali, avrei bisogno di installare una Webcam, uno scanner, e un CD RW; non ho bisogno di prestazioni straordinarie, e meno spendo meglio è; vorrei nondimeno essere indirizzato verso periferiche che nei limiti del possibile non mi diano problemi sotto Mandrake 7.0: qualcuno può aiutarmi? Anche in relazione alla videoconferenza: a che punto siamo, sotto Linux? Verso quali programmi mi potrei indirizzare? Grazie per l'aiuto! Corrado P.S.: dall'ultima volta che ho usato Windows (...), l'orologio di sistema di Linux mi è scattato in avanti due ore! E non mi ricordo più come reimpostarlo... :-|
