Re: [newbie] connecting linux to windows
Here you have two choices. You can install samba in your linux box and configure it correctly. "If you are in a LAN with a WINS server, do not forget including it in smb.conf." Your other choice will be setting up an NFS server on the specific windows computer "I use a program named DiskShare in windows which is trivial to setup, hence you can share folders using NFS." Then mount the NFS share on your linux box. This last option works if you have control over the windows machine you will be connecting to. Samba will be more general since you will be able to mount any share on your LAN, but performancewise, I think NFS will be better.

RE: [newbie] Titanium Video broken in Mandrake 8.2
I dont know if you have already solved your problem, but I have a suggestion that may help. WHen you load linux, if X starts automatically you can change runlevels from console. First press ctr-alt-f1 or any f, then as root type "telinit 3" to move to run level three. From there go to the X11 folder in /etc and run a configuration script named "XF86Config" or something like that. This has always worked for me, even in other OS's like FreeBSD. It will prompt you for your monitor, card information etc, just make sure you have a good documentation of your hardware like monitor vertical refresh rate, make-model-memory of video card etc. For the keyboard and mouse configurations the default options usually work. To start X again and test if your new configuration is correct type "startx" or "telinit 5" Sometimes after running the script you may want to edit it by had to choose default resolution and things like that...

Re: [newbie] How to change X resolution
Two ways of doing it. The easiest one is to go to use drakconf "type drakconf as a super user in console" and go to the display section. Or go to /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 and edit the screen section, and choose the proper defaultColorDepth "16 or 24" and make sure that the subsection corresponding to your depth contains the desired resolution "this is found a couple of lines below the defaultColorDepth line" This doesnt need to be precisely the best way of doing it, it's up to u to play around with this file until u know what it does.

RE: Re[2]: [newbie] Problem with Mouse Freezing.
I had the same problem and in my case i found a solution. When you are in linux "mouse and keyboard are working" and you want to switch to another box, before you use the switch to do the switcihng, go to any of the non-graphical terminals "ctr alt F1" and then use the switch. When you go back to linux, press enter and then use "ctr alt F7" to go back to your X session. Everything worked fine for me when I did this. My mouse and keyboard, which used to stop responding, now work fine. I hope this works for u too... let me know. --- Robin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I am using a 4 port Linksys switch with a Logitech > mouse.

[newbie] Three questions
Could anyone help me with one or more of the following? 1. SOUND CARD NOT WORKING: I have a Sound Blaster PCI 64, which wasn't correctly recognized at the moment of installing Venus; it doesn't appear in the list of sound cards known to sndconfig, should I choose a SB16? what else? 2. OLD HYUNDAI MONITOR: I have an old Hyundai monitor, a monochromatic 19'' perfectly working, and its dedicated graphic adapter HGC 1280, the X howto says the card is supported but I couldn't get it to work (couldn't get the correct modeline, to be precise): how can I configure X correctly? does anyone here have the same card/monitor combo? 3. 1027 CYLINDERS: when I installed Venus, I repartitioned the hd with fdisk. Now I noticed that fdisk warns me about the hd having 1027 cyls instead of 1024, what can I do about it? I already tried to fix it with fdisk, but it didn't work. Should I start again from scratch and completely wipe out the hd (a Samsung 8.4)? Thanx in advance.

[newbie] kernel 2.2.5 error on CDROM
Hi, I've a problem with the kernel 2.2.5-15 (installed from kpackage, I believe is kernel-2.2.5-15.i386.rpm).

Temporaly it's seem resolved by removing /dev/cd* but I mail you file that can be usefull to fix it (file0.txt before changing - file1.txt after changing) The strange error is more more frequently on burned CD respect the silver. _ DO YOU YAHOO!?

[expert] Some problems
Hi, I've some problems and in order of importance I expose you, if there is somewhere, someone that can help my in something. :-)) I've Mandrake 5.3 with 2.2.3a4-4 kernel upgraded. Please answer to [EMAIL PROTECTED] too because I'm subscribed only at newbie digest and not at newbie. To gently Jeanette Russo: thank for your helps and ;-) have you Italian origin too (I supposed by your family name) ? --- Linux CD --- I tried to make a linux Mandrake CD, taking some data from one CD and other progs from another CD. My problem is that when I try to install Mandrake it reply that there no Mandrake CDROM inside the driver. I hope that copy cd one-to-one not is the only solution possible because the CD that contains my mandrake contains about 300Mb of WIN-PC shareware progs too. --- mount --- I've write a CD-ROM in file system OSTA UDF known as "packet writing" but I'cannot mount it. If I mount this CD I see only a ISO9660 partition that contains a message about OSTA UDF file system ad a win95 driver for this file system. If OSTA UDF file system is supported by linux how I can get this features ? --- man command --- [root@localhost /root]# man -c ls Formatting page, please wait... :34: warning: can't find character with input code 232 :51: warning: can't find character with input code 233 :52: warning: can't find character with input code 224 :90: warning: can't find character with input code 249 :245: warning: can't find character with input code 200 :297: warning: can't find character with input code 242 and I can't see accented characters. --- core --- What's is the 'core' file that frequently I found in my /root directory (and frequently I remove) ? --- daemons --- Are really useful this daemons for a single machine (no net), with only Internet connection but no e-mail or news utilities active ? 224 ?
