RE: [newbie] Other screens than :0?
The :0 represents display 0 on your system. If you had a second graphics card you could use :1 to display on that monitor (with the second card) Cheers, Jesse -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Paul Sent: Thursday, August 16, 2001 11:26 PM To: newbie Subject: Re: [newbie] Other screens than :0?

RE: [newbie] installed xine, weird occurence
Not that I use Xine that often, but I remember it being installed to /usr/local/bin I prefer Mplayer, as it is more stable and easier to install.

RE: [newbie] WinME slowdown after MDK install
I also have a similar setup, and have never noticed any slowdown in ME. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Barbara Pfieffer Sent: Thursday, August 16, 2001 10:41 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [newbie] WinME slowdown after MDK install I have ME and mdk 8 on two Dells, one notebook and one desktop, both run fine, with no appreciable speed difference for ME. Both have Intel processors on mine, about the only diff. Barbara Ed Colmar wrote: Hi everyone! I've been having a repeating issue on dual boot winME + MDK machines, and I was wondering if anyone could help to shed some light on the subject, or ideally point me toward a solution. Machine A: AMD Athlon 700 Mhz DMA 20gig drive 376 MB ram machine B: HP 5340 Notebook Amd Duron 800 Mhz 18 Gig drive 256 MB ram On both of the machines, when WinME is installed ALONE, it screams, all games are really fast, and launching apps is nearly instant. Once Mandrake (and Grub) are installed, the machines slow down significantly. I would say they run at 10-20 percent of the speed they were at. This includes opening new windows, launching apps, and 3d performance. Does WinME require some special boot options? Or Some type of special configuration to allow dual boot? It seems like once it notices that another OS is on the disc that it /voluntarily/ slows itself. Can it be tricked somehow? I even tried the real mode DOS patch on one of the boxes, and that only slowed it down more... =( Normally I wouldn't care, and just run linux all the time. But gaming is the only thing that windows can do that linux can't and the speed needs to be there for that. Any ideas? TIA! -ed- Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

RE: [newbie] HEY, NO SPAMMING
Now here's something that I find amusing. The guy who actually spammed only sent on email...fine, I can handle that, but then everybody starts sending anti-spam emails (and thus spamming everybody), and now we're all supposed to spam the webmaster to take action against the spammer? --Jesse -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Jason Guidry Sent: Wednesday, August 15, 2001 3:04 PM To: Linux-Mandrake Newbie (E-mail) Subject: RE: [newbie] HEY, NO SPAMMING I contacted the webmaster at his domain. mandrake claims to go after people who spam people on this list.

[newbie] Laptop question...
I have a Dell Inspiron 7500 with Mandrake 8.0 installed on it. Whenever I close the lid, though, it suspends the computer. Is there any way for me to change this so that it doesnt do that? (or better, just turns the screen off) Cheers, Jesse
