Re: [newbie] gFTP

I like to get the latest packages from cooker and it's easiest to just browse the site with the 'explorer' type window; my problem is that the window isn't wide enough to give me the whole file name, but it does give me useless info (to me anyway) like 'user', 'group' and 'attribs'. The stuff I'm really interested in would be 'filename', 'size' and 'date'. Use you mouse cursor, move to the header line of the column, where it lists the files' names. At the right edge of the file header is a line. Position mouse cursor over that, hold down Left-Click, and drag to to right. Voila! Larger area available for your files' names. If there's no way to do this, could someone point me to a graphic ftp client that would? Thanks so much, Mike
[newbie] Boy, am I feeling dumb ...
Howdies. Got a small problem since installing Mandrake 6.1 - my PPP sessions freeze me out of launching *ANY* new programs! (D'Oh!) I can continue to run one, or several: already opened programs - BUT ! Can't run anything in addition. Just stops. No error messages, just no action. Close the ppp, and all programs are available for launch. It's GOTTA be something simple, and stupid ... that I've done, or maybe: Not done. Netscape works fine, both for Web and e-mail. So does KVirc.I run over a 56K dial-up, on an old Pentium 166, 32 M of ram. Another annoyance: somehow, I've got Netscape wanting, trying, DEMANDING to open rpm downloads (UNLESS I can shift-click to save), as if it were a text file for display. (Not very useful, really.) How to fix? I'd welcome enlightenment. :) Please! :) :) TIA
