Re: [newbie] flashing bios
John's right. Also, I'd send a letter of complaint to Asus. The squeaky wheel gets the grease and if enough Linux users start causing a fuss, it'll only move things along faster on the vendors end (you also have to back it up with your pocketbook.)

Re: [newbie] can anyone help me to install sound blaster?
If you have a SB PCI128 Live, it's not supported yet as far as I know. If you have a std SB PCI128, you should be able to manually select it in snd config. If not you may have an IRQ conflict (if you have an internal modem, check the IRQ there, it's typically the biggest culprit when it comes to conflicts with sound cards) Sam Original Message On 12/30/99, 3:18:32 AM, "Meditalika" [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote regarding [newbie] can anyone help me to install sound blaster?: - Original Message - From: Meditalika [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: newbie.linux [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, December 30, 1999 8:34 AM Subject: have problem with SB I have Creative SB 128 and mandrake 6.0 (I have all update), but when I run sndconfig program detects my SB, find out what chip I have and etc, but when program try to play sample, I get: The following error occurred playing the samples: sox: Sun/NeXT/DEC header doesn't start with magic word Try the '.ul' file type with '-t ul -r 8000 filename' What does it mean?

Re: [newbie] two monitors; experience with wine?; Database programs?
From the reviews I've read Vmware is much better than Wine, but you have to pay $99 after the trial period. It'll only run for 30 days without being unlocked.

Good luck, Hidong Hannes Lackner wrote: Hi, At win98 it is possible to install two graphiccards and monitors, so if you move your mouse to the edge of the monitor you can switch between them. This is very fine because I can have the main Window on my 19" monitor and the toolpalettes on the 15" one . Is this possible with Linux too? Does anyone have some experience with the windows modulator "wine?". Ore other emulators better? How much does emulating windows affect the speed? I am using the Vectorworks 2d-3d drawing and rendering program from Diehlgraphsoft and would like to run it at Linux. My hardware: CPU: Celeron 400 mhz, overclocked to 500 mhz Graficards: Matrox Millenium II (PCI) 8Mb ATI Rage II (AGP) 8Mb RAM: 128 Mb Can someone tell me a really good Database program for Linux? The one which is included at the Staroffice isn't the best I need to be able to make sophisticated calculations. Thanks in Advance and a happy, y2k- conforming New Year's Eve ;-) Hannes
Re: [newbie] X/Mandrake 6.1
I can see one problem already Section "Pointer" Protocol"PS/2" Device "/dev/mouse" If this is a PS2 mouse, the device should be /dev/psaux Also, did you try picking a std ps2 mouse first. I had problems with the mouse under suse when I tried running the intelliwheel add-on, and the problem was similar to what you're experiencing. Section "Keyboard" Protocol"Standard" Try using it as a 104 key keyboard, I have a clone of the MS natural keyboard and it runs fine with this selected. On the TNT2 card- many of them will run fine if you tell it ok when the video setup tells you you have a Viper 770 (this depends on how closely the mfg stuck to the reference std established by nvidia). I have a Leadtek Winfast and this worked for me when trying to set the parameters manually didn't work. Thanks in advance for your help, Toby Walsh
Re: [newbie] cannot boot
Go to mandrakeuser.org, then go to the kernel section. There is a page that wlks you through each step you need to do to get it to boot with the new kernel and tells you exactly what changes you need to make to lilo.
