Re: [newbie] Changing from Xfree86 3.3.6 to 4.01..

2001-01-16 Thread Rj Aguila

Here's what worked for me.  I think the problem is that XFDrake keeps 
wanting to link X to 3.3 so delete the link and create another link pointing 
to the correct version of X.
rm /etc/X11/X
ln -s /usr/X11R6/bin/XFree86  /etc/X11/X

then do a X -version just to check.  I hope that helps out.

Hi,
   I have Mandrake 7.2 installed and I selected Xfree86 4.01 to use
during installation. I recently changed my resolution and it changed the
X Server back to 3.3. Now how do I get back to X 4.01? Any/all help is
greatly appreciated. Thanks!

[newbie] Eth0 probs

2001-01-05 Thread Rj Aguila

Hi, I just installed Mandrake 7.2 and everything is pretty much working. 
Here are my system specs

Amd Athlon 800
Biostar M7VKB mobo w/ VIA KT133 chipset
128 RAM
20 gig HD
Gefoce2 MX
SBLive PCI
3com905b-TX Cyclone (PCI)
Acer 50x CD-ROM ATAPI
TEAC CD-W54E

My only problem is my ethernet card. I am connected to a college network and 
in Win98 the card works fine.  Currently I'm using the 3com59x driver for 
eth0.  I'm not sure if this is the correct driver or not.  When I boot up i 
get a message the IP Initialization with dhdcp failed.  Is anyone familiar 
with this card and getting it to run under Mandrake 7.2?  I'm not sure if 
the problem is the driver or the dhdcp settings..
