Re: [newbie] environment variables not loading?
Have you got the format right? E.G. TERM=vt100 ; export TERM If you don't export the variables they will not be seen outside of the current process.

Re: [newbie] sparc install: where is the network???
Steve, Sun's use either the 'le' driver or the 'hme' driver. This is configured by the kernel and may be a loadable module. In order to have your eth0 seen properly you need to do the following (assuming you have the kernel module): 1) cd /lib/modules//net ( to get too the list of modules. ) 2) insmod hme.o (assuming it's there ) 3) ifconfig eth0 10.0.0.1 (should bring up the interface) 4) dhcpcd -i eth0 ( ask for an IP addr ).

Re: [newbie] Where is the kernel?
Do you have the kernel-src installed??? rpm -qa | grep kernel If so you can find it by using: rpm -ql where pkg is the name of the package. JK Arlindo Fragoso wrote: Hi! I've searched in /usr/src for the kernel file but I d'ont see it!!! I've tried to compile a new kernel doing "make xconfig" or menuconfig but I get an error mensage. How to compile the kernel in Mandrake 7.1? TIA AF
