[newbie] Nice surfing
Hi I know it is possible, Only question remains. How? I have a slow connection to the internet so I want to use it to the maximum. But also so that when I want to download the new isos it will not disturb surfing for my wife at the same time. I use usually wget to fech the files. I know I can set the limit rate to some value, but it is not efficent, because it leaves a fixed ammount of internet pipe ressource unused even when nobody needs the free rate I want to limit the rate automatically. Whenever somebody (read: some process) want to use the internet pipe it should get the priority and when the pipe is free ( I mean not used by anybody else) then wget gets the full bandwidth to fech the isos for me. I looked into nice value, but it has more effect on the processor load and does not seem to have effect on the internet pipe. Has anybody some suggestions ? By the way I have dsl connection using ppoe (and the devide is ppp0) rgds Kristjan Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

Open the K3b setup program again. 2. Re-install K3b. One of those should work I believe. I have uninstalled and removed just about any conf file I still had left. and reinstalled at least 3 times. The version 08 from mdk9.1 cds did not start, The one v0.10 from textar did not start. Then I got the version 0.9 from rpmfind . It had one dependanct problem when installing, but I got it resolved. But when It starts then it also crashes immediately with signal 11 (sigsegv) So at least I am back in the stage I started. Only thing I did before it stopped working was that I changed the partition table of my spare drive. but that can not have anything to do with that k3b crashes. it is not logical.

[newbie] Sound editing question
I have one slight questions about sound editors I have a general thing I need to do each week. Cut one 2 hour wav file into peaces. then convert into mp3 and make available in internet. I have tried to use Audacity. It is a nice tool, but have its problems. It likes to hang my system (x) sometimes very often, and it performing very slow on my 400 PII computer. Then I'v found a nice peace of soft named sweep It is working very fast and has a very nice UI (that I like). Sweep has another problem. It is able to work on smaller files and it refuses to open my 2 hour long files. the error sweep declares is GLib-ERROR **: could not allocate 1175879680 bytes aborting... Aborted So my question is that is there maybe a way I can work it over and still use sweep. (I have 5G of free space, so the space allocation is not concerned my space actually) I very much apprechiate any suggestions. Kristjan Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

[newbie] converting a lot of images
Hi there I have learned that anything is possible with Linux. only question is how to do that I have around 100 images that need to be prepared for a web presentation. That is html only site, so I can not use any fancy magics on the webside. They are different sizes 1028x768 and some are bit smaller. I need them in 2 sizes, all the same 1 - 187 x 140 2 - 512 x 348 has anyone ides for me hoto do that.

I am quite sure though that it can also work in Dolphin :) For most soundcards there are both OSS and ALSA drivers available in ML9.0. The ALSA ones in Dolphin are based upon ALSA 0.9.0rc2 while 8.2 had the 0.5.x series ALSA drivers. What would be nice is if you still have your /etc/modules.conf from 8.2.
