Re: [newbie] Update from 9.1 to 10.0 done!

2004-07-30 Thread Q.H.Wang
My plan was to firstly update, and see what would happen. So far it sounds
good. If there are any problems I have to have clean installation. Thanks
anyway.

2004-07-30 Thread Q.H.Wang
 I just don't know how many more times I've got to see it - and those
 that have upgaded before, even...tested it time and time again, and will
 test it the next time as well - but still - it's only because I like to
 make extra work for myself and see all the nasties...



I don't like your tone and attitude very much! Linux is a FREE world. People
can do what they want to do as their wishes.  I just want to post my
experience here that might be a bit useful. If you think it's nothing you
just simply skip it like most people do! You are not suppose to be the BIG
BROTHER who everybody must follows.

2004-07-30 Thread Q.H.Wang
Sorry for my words, man. I confess I somehow misunderstood it.

I had a clean install on another PC but this time I got no luck. During the
course I was not able to confgiure the graphic card correctly (in MDK 9.1 I
remember it's Radeon 9000, but I could not find it in MDK 10.0) thus could
not install XFree 4.3. I will sort it out.

Bests,

[newbie] Update from 9.1 to 10.0 done!

2004-07-29 Thread Q.H.Wang
Hi people,

I have done an update from 9.1 to 10.0. Basically it's sucessful. Almost all
the applications I installed with 9.1 are untouched in this update, though
some of them need to start from scratch (run as the first time). There is an
exception. Matlab can not start Java Virtual Machine, thus the command
window disappears. Maybe I need to install it again, or maybe I can fix it
by just installing Java package. Does anyone have similar experience? TIA.

By the way, MDK 10.0 is much better than 9.1. Cheers!

Bests,

QingHua

[newbie] libstdc++.so.6

2004-07-29 Thread Q.H.Wang
Hi there,

does anyone know which version of gcc or others this library libstdc++.so.6
come from? GCC 3.4.x? Apparently GCC 3.3.2 in MDK 10.0 does not have it.
Many thanks!

Bests,

QingHua

Re: [newbie] burning an iso

2004-06-17 Thread Q.H.Wang
 
 Aron, I don't trust k3b.
 
 Use cdrecord:
 
 cdrecord -v -eject -device=ATA:1,0,0 -data -dao cdimage.iso
 

I also do not have too much faith in k3b. XCDRoast is very nice.

Re: [newbie] Laptop

2004-04-23 Thread Q.H.Wang
Hi people!

My one is Compaq presario 2815. I have run Mandrake 9.1 for about one year
since last April, I don't encounter any problem. I guess what you need to do
is, just buy a new one and then install Mandrake (maybe) 10. You will not
find any problem.
