Re: [newbie] Configuring Fonts
Hello Here is how I did mine. Now I run beautifUl anti-aliased system 1- Install LM8.0 with Xfree86 4.0.3 2- Copy the true type fonts from your windows/fonts directory to your /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/truetype 3- Go to LookNFeel | Style and check the two options that says Apply Fonts and Colors to .. Use Anti-Aliasing . 4- Edit your /etc/X11/XftConfig and make sure you have this line: dir "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/truetype" also look for the line that says: # Substitute TrueType fonts for Type1 versions under this line change match any family == "Courier" edit family += "Courier New"; To match any family == "Courier" edit family +="Arial"; 5. Edit your /etc/X11/fs/config and do the following change /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1, To /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1:unscaled, 6 if you think that anti-aliasing is bothering you for small font add these lines to your XftConfig (mentioned in step 4) match any size > 8 any size < 12 edit antialias = false; Thats it.

Then at the console type setserial /dev/modem uart 16550AN port 0xa800 irq 11 note that I put 16550AN mine was 16550A try both. I also put 0xa800 for port but yours might be different.

I have not installed the driver for the promise card. I am sure it will work. Even if it did not work. I don't care because I have only one hard drive hooked to the Promise and this harddrive is for Windows. Now the question is.

Re: [newbie] nVIDIA TnT2
No, no games. I don't play games. I just want Mandrake to run fast enough. I used to have PIII 450 with Asus AGP-V2740 (AGP Bus, Intel740TM accelerator) and Mandrake was so slow.

Re: [newbie] html & php
Hello Your server will not parse html file using the php interpreter. If you want to parse html files I think you need change your httpd.conf if you are using Apache. However, if you do this you will put an overhead on your server because it will parse every html file. --- kaab kaoutar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > HI > How can i make work an html file that includes php! > when the extension of the file is php it works fine > but when i change its > extension to html it no more works how can i > configure this! > THanks > _ > Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at > http://www.hotmail.com. > > = Regards, OOzy What is the purpose of life? __ Do You Yahoo!?

Hello Michele There is no stupid question. To make sure that the problem is not from the CD. Copy the file from the CD to the hard disk.

[newbie] Consistency Please!
Hello Guys I doing a dual boot and I am trying to adjust the boot menu. In MDK 7.2 everything was listed in a file called menu.lst. However, this file disappeared in Mdk 8.0. What's up with that?
