 I know some people on this list are on freewwweb. That is what I am trying
 to use. It has been about roughly 7 hours since I went to the site and
 signed up. I put freewwweb.com for the name server. Is that right? I also
 use 216.70.64.1 and 216.70.64.2 as my dns servers provided by freewwweb.
 When I run kppp in kde I get the dialing out,the sounds but, then I get
 "Error The pppd daemon died unexpectedly!" Then is give me a guess for the
 reason and that is cause I have the wrong username and password. I know I
 have the right account cause I made it not but, 7 hours ago. Can anyone help
 me? Thank you

Re: [newbie] Linux Mandrake 7.0 with Packard Bell Monitor

2000-05-04 Thread David G. Thiessen

i have a Packard Bell 1020 monitor.  I used Generic
MultiSync monitor
when setting up my monitor for X.  I may have done some
tweaking, but
as I recall all the info I needed was in my booklet for the
monitor.
Write to me directly if you need further help.

 Hi,
 
 Hopefully someone can help me.
 
 I've used Linux for a while, but am new to Mandrake...I know the usual advice
 with Packard Bell monitors is to get another monitorin this situation I
 cannot.
 
 I've only been able to get a *very* minimal installation/configuration of X
 going...can anyone point me to anymore resources...don't seem to find anything
 at all on the Mandrake site.
 
 Thanks,
 Tim.

Re: [newbie] OT--BIOS

2000-04-21 Thread David G. Thiessen

Uh dude... I am not an idiot...  I know upgrading the BIOS is
free.  I can see that I did not make that clear in my post.  But
lets face it, there are some manufacturors that have downright
lousy BIOS'.  MRBIOS fills the ticket for those people that want
a more robust BIOS.  Also nice when you have a MB from a
manufacturor thats no longer around and you cant find any updates.

 Uhh, dude... Upgrading a BIOS is free; all you gotta do is download the
 flash-utillity and the new image from the manufacturer's site. Be warned though,
 you can not switch from one brand of BIOS to another, AFAIK; you'll have to stay
 with the same brand, but you'll get a higher version. See my other post on this
 for more details, or if you already deleted it: too bad, so did I ;-)
 
 You can check out http://www.drivershq.com/List/bioslink1.html though.
