Open extensions and uninstall these both (again as root). Shut down Thunderbird and re launch it and enigmail should be gone. For some reason you can't uninstall the extensions even as root until they are re-installed as root. It appears they were installed as root when the rpm was built. Thanks Rick, mostly this worked... I was able to get rid of the extension as a normal user. I did not have to log in as root. (When I did try to do this, Thunderbird started the new account wizard!) This could be because I installed Thunderbird under rpmdrake, and did not use the firefox/thunderbird self-installer. - Jack Hi Jack, I have a request, could you please stop sending html mail to this list?

RickS It sounds like you have two seperate problems here. I'll take a stab at the easy one first. If you are starting X as root, you will not be able to run X programs as a normal user. Thx .. makes sense to me 8) Now, as for not being able to log in as a normal user, if would be helpfull to know what kind of error message. Without that, the only thing I can think of is to check /etc, and see if there is a nologin file. This file is normaly created when you use shutdown with a delay time, and prevents normal users from logging in. If this file is still there for some reasion, deleting it will allow normal logins again. Mikkel thx Mikkel, There wasnt a nologin file in /etc .. and I can't find any error messages .. ?? or nothing in the logs .. I reboot and autologin doesn't work so it dumps back to login and thats where I would login to root.

I have LM10 CE installed on a Dell laptop dual booting win2k. Aside from a video resolution issue, LM10 is a nice release for me. One annoying issue, however, is that if I leave my machine on overnight, it is locked up tight by morning. Nothing but a hard reboot will get it back. Ctl - Alt - F1 etc. doesn't respond. I can't get to a command line at all to try and figure it out. Is there a log file somewhere that might be recording events leading up to the freeze? BTW, I have a simple 'clock' screensaver enabled but 'power management' is not enabled. Also, is there any pressing reasons to upgrade to official? Yes official is official and CE is more like a Release candidate. So Official is better. Although, YMMV .. thanks for your ideas, Bill W. Bill, I had a similar problem with suspend/sleep mode that was related to acpi for the 2.6 kernels. For Mdk 9.2.1 and 2.4 kernels, I had to set lilo append to nolapic but for the 2.6 kernels and my nForce2. I had to use the lapic since it is enabled in these kernels. But it would still lock up until I installed a tmb kernel.. see my sig .. that fixed my nForce2 issues. It's still a test kernel, although it works for me. But we need more info ... what kernel are you using ? does your bios support acpi ? Have you tried noacpi or nolapic or acpi=off in your lilo append line ? Have you tried the newbie archive for this problem ? http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=mandrake-newbier=1w=2 or the expert list archive: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=mandrake-expertr=1w=2 or even cooker .. http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=mandrake-cookerr=1w=2 incase someone has already asked this and resolved it.

[newbie] module.conf loading joystick drivers question ?
Hello, I got my sidewinder joystick and SBlive gameport working with bascule's help by adding: emu10k1-gp joydev to modules. .. and from googling found this added it to modules.conf... alias char-major-13 analog rebooted .. then... $modprobe joydev then... $modprobe sidewinder in that order.. it works. I've been trying to get these modules loaded in module.conf but with no success. I've tried alias, probeall and modprobe ( which is a bad idea ) and read .. re-read the man pages, so what's the proper syntax for these command lines in modules.conf ? is this the correct file to add them to ? or would it be module. ? I tried different methods but to no avail. I'm not understanding somethings about the module loading, so can any one help please ?

I see there are 3.2.1b-6mdk, 3.3-2mdk, 3.3-3.92mdk, shadowsclient 5.8.7-1mdk available. The first one seems a beta version. The second one refused to install and apparently it is from unsupported. The third one want to remove kdelibs-commons before installing which i think is an important package so i should not remove it. The shadowsclient is an experimental one so not sure if it works OK. So which one would you recommend?

[newbie] Cdrom mounting problems - K3b did it 8(
Hi All, not knowing any reason not to . I setup K3b to copy from cdrom (reader) to cdrom2 (burner) and changed the append line of lilo to add hdc=ide-scsi hdd=ide-scsi , since cdrdao complains about scsi not being enabled for all the devices ... Well it did work for K3b but I cant access the drive through any file manager since it wont read the proper device. I think hdc in /dev is .. now .. symlinked wrong ... it points to generic ? shouldn't it point to ../scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/cd or even cdrom0 ??

Sorry for any confusion that caused. very frustrated at how long I've been at this with no results, sorry if this is all messed up or out of format. I'm sorry you're frustrated..but if you want help you will have to ask for it. Up to now I couldn't find anything you've asked about your problems excepting something about a proprietary source RPM you were trying to build. So be more explicit about what you're trying to do and what's stopping you to do that. That way we can help. Feel free to go back to M$ if it bugs you that you have to learn to handle another OS because learning is what it's all about in the early stages. If you're not prepared to do that: Come back when you are. You yourself stated an nforce chip is fairly current and there must thousands of linux users with the same hardware with no trouble at all, so the probability that you yourself are the source of all the mishaps that are befalling you, is pretty high. Just ask. BTW- Please turn off the reply to in your mail to the list it's unnecessary PIA, henceforth: UPIA;) Good luck, HarM I understand the frustration Lance. I was using M$ win 98 up until sept 2003 and have only used it now to play some games. When I installed 9.1 I think I hosed the install 10+ times in the 1st 3 weeks and I almost gave up. Although I realized I wasn't prepared enough, so I googled for any how-to on bash, man pages, specific commands, and any linux how-to .. I lurk this list cooker mostly, but someone here recommended 2 O'Reilly books, Linux in a Nutshell and Running Linux. I received Linux in a Nutshell first, so I started there. It wasn't until I read Running Linux where I started hearing myself say, aah..thats what they meant, this book sheds a lot of light on where it all started and how it works together. I still refer to these references all to often. Linux in a Nutshell has a ton of commands options and switches which has helped me. I highly recommend these. And rpm -rebuild has been separated into its own package: (unless I wrong, but I did a man rpm and didn't see the --rebuild option) rpm-build-4.2-22.1.92mdk I also updated to these, for security , IIRC and you will need the -devel to build from src rpm-4.2-22.1.92mdk rpm-devel-4.2-22.1.92mdk And you will need the kernel source as HarM said. http://rpms.mandrakeclub.com/rpms/mandrake/9.2/i586/Mandrake/RPMS/KByName.html here is also a beginning for rpm how-to http://www.mandrakeuser.org/docs/basics/brpm.html I too, am preparing to get nVidia drivers installed on 9.2, I failed once already, so Ive been googling for anything else I might encounter.
