Re: [newbie] Nvidia driver from texstar install / M9.1 (ATT: Lanman)

Took all of 1 minute to install and configure. Who says you can write installation systems that work? Just had to make a copy of my XF86Config-4 file, ran the shell script to install the NVidia package, and edited a few minor things in the existing XF86Config-4 file. They put together one sweet install if you ask me! Had to modify X so it wouldn't launch on start-up, backed up the X config file, ran the file they provided, and edited may as many as three lines in XF86Config-4. After that, startx did the trick. Don't know whether or not the Texstar RPM's work as nicely as this, but if not, this new install system is good to go! Thing is, this driver package is supposed to be able to compile itself for many kernels, and distributions. That's impressive! Nice to see what a company can do when they put their heads together.

IMHO many Linux users are either hackers as in like to tinker with systems, want something secure and reliable, or just really dislike Micro$oft. Many are also students who maybe learning programming and can't afford to shell out over $100 per language for M$'s visual net software . Linux offers a great alternative. Most users can't afford every piece of software M$ or anyone else for that matter produces. I've been using Mandrake since 5.1or 5.2 (I'd have to look at the disk). I like how it has developed over the years. I can safely say on my part that 9.1 is the best yet. I was speechless when I installed it on a friends system and only had to set the correct time zone. I mean it picked up the printer, and the network and set them all up. I did have to add the Nvidia driver for his video, but compared to the windows installed I had just completed on the same system which required drivers on almost every piece of hardware it was mind blowing.

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Thanks, as I reposted I was just a little courius about the topic. I had recently upgraded my system to a AsusN266-vm board with 512 DDR and a 1.73 AMD chip. I have been waiting to see how 9.1 was going to be able to handle all the intergraded components. I knew I would have to apply a drivers for the Gforce 2 video, and the drivers for the Nforce chipset, but I was somewhat concerened that the Nvidia drivers for 9.0 would not work and I would have to wait for a few weeks while Nvidia caught up to Mandraksoft. I found that rebuilding the src.rpms drivers worked fine after a few config hacks. The athlon.rpms made me wonder about the 586 and 686 issue. Thanks again.

If so why does 9.1 still report as a 586 install? Because all (well, most all**) of Mandrake is compiled using i586 optimizations. It's a widely held belief that compiling for i686 actually degrades performance, and compiling for athlon (3 FPU's per cycle, instead of Intel's 2), still provides little to no benefit. That's also been my experience in many (futile) tries ;) ** the exception is glibc libraries, which are compiled for i686, and used if a i686 processor is reported. Type 'arch' in a terminal and it'll return what your cpu purports to be. I used the word purports, because some early K6 AMD's and very early Pentiums, some mobile (laptop) cpu's, and all current VIA-C3 cpu's report they're i686, but they're not. Pushing cpu otimizations to the max is not always a good idea. On some hardware combinations of PSU, motherboard, cache and ram, and other components, it can cause failures. Most often why you see some complaints that Red Hat (i386) works, but Mandrake (i586) doesn't. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+hIXt6UWsagwteioRAlDrAJ9LfMOrtZzU+jEGhOCOv9dV+HmOCACfcw0o T3Ryti3nqEhtjSNi9Pmdqug= =zywS -END PGP SIGNATURE- Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Count yourself lucky. Most of the complaints I have read on Corel is due to the
kppp not working.
As for Mandrake, which Install did u do? And which ver did you install?
What kind of modem do you have?
The one complaint I have about the 7.x family {so far} is that they have
removed the Install Everything option. Which I have found to be the best way to
go.

If you have the power pack you get free phone support for so many days. Like I said this is a newbie mailing list. If you have a question ask it. Someone may answer it if they can. Not everyone lives in the same time zones, or checks their mail at the same time. So the answer may not come for a few hours, or even days. Next, If your going to sell something, it would make good sense to spell check your manual. GEEZZZ Nice to hear since there was 6 misspelled words in this short rant. That's just in the first glance.

Yes. It's probably already installed. Open up a console window and (or if already in the console) type "ncftp" (minus the quotes.) This is the BEST ftp client I know of for linux. It's not a GUI client, though, so you have to use it from the command-line. John

Re: [newbie] S.O.S. Computer Down
I haven't used the boot loader in partition magic, but if you can get in windows go to run and type msconfig and check the autoexe and see if it's being started there. at the same time if you can get to a command prompt type fdisk /mbr which will remove anything in the master boot record and let winblows re take control of booting. You must make sure that partition magic isn't being loaded by the autoexe or config sys. On Thu, 23 Dec 1999, you wrote: Hello list. I'm having a heck of a time with the "macmillian-mandrake complete linux OS 6.5" I followed the instructions to a tee. I even had linux running for a short while... however, I could not figure how to get rid of partition magic. Every time I started the computer, it would boot partition magic, and follow some endless cycle or rebooting - partition magic. Even when I initially installed linux, I had to use F5 to break out of this cycle. In the short run, I figured that I must of messed something up. So I uninstalled the linux partition on safe mode in win98 (only way past "partition magic"). I then attempted to reinstall another partition for linux. However, after this new partition was created, I went into win98 "safe mode" to deinstall partition magic, without deleting the linux partition. I'm now totally, utterly devastated. Neither OS works, and I am stuck in some endless cycle, where a question asks if I want exit dos mode into windows mode- reboot- the question again. ah... this is enough to make a preacher cuss.

Re: [newbie] Linux Ram limits?
Thanks Steve , The reason i was planning to go with the large ram is mostly for the windows side of the system. There are some tools I use that aren't ported to linux as of yet. i was just concerned that Linux might have a little trouble with it. I will be able to spare room for the swap, but once again I wasn't sure if there were limits to what Linux can see. I've been reading some on vmware, as a option of no longer dual booting. I have found Linux to be more stable, as well as just being fun. I now spend over 95% of my time in linux, I just wish that could be 100%. Like always thanks for your feedback Steven G
