Re: [newbie] vectorlinux? Too much choices
Hi Cristophe, I have an exactly similar machine, a P200MMx with 64MB Ram. I installed FreeBSD 5.1. Here is what I installed: XMMS via ports WindowMaker from the CD-ROM Acroread (PDF) Opera Mozilla (browsers - both are CPU intensive) WindowMaker, is quite simple to configure. So you can easily have a working machine. I doubt if it will be worth the effort to install (java based) office packages. You can probably he happy with AbiWord. you are welcome to contact me for any further details Tk --- deedee [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Sat, 06 Mar 2004 10:15:01, Christophe Rhein wrote: Hello, Thank you for all your answers and now I'm confused with all the solutions...

[newbie] Mandrake 9.1 on a 64MB RAM box
Hi all, I wonder if I can install and run Mandrake 9.1 on a machine with a Pentium 200 MMX, 64MB RAM and 10 GB HDD. I believe the processor and RAM will limit the usability of the machine. Can I install MDK without KDE/GNOME? My experience has been that MDK would install KDE whether you want it or not. What I want is a lean installation with Window Maker/FluxBox as window managers and the ability to play sound and connect to the internet. sound = the box has a soundblaster 16 compatible. BTW, does MDK 9.1 have a PPP program to connect to the internet (other than the excellent KPPP). wvDial gave me a lot of headaches. I tried FreeBSD 5.1(Slack was plain too tough). But sound needs a kernel compile and I have reached a dead end with linking failure. (the .o files wouldn't link). thanks = -- K E S H A V T A D I M E T I -- BeOS Air You have to pay for the tickets, but they're half the price of Windows Air, and if you are an aircraft mechanic you can probably ride for free.

[newbie] [OT]:CD tray doesn't eject
Hi all, I just bought a EIDE Western Digital Caviar (I think it is also called Ultra ATA) and made it the master. The ATAPI Sony CD-ROM is the slave. After boot, I get the obvious message - device not ready. The problem is that I am not able to eject the CD tray (so that I can begin Mandrake installation). Motherboard = D815EEA Processor = PIII 866 MHz I am able to see both the ATAPI CD-ROM Hard Disk in the BIOS. Has anyone faced this problem before? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks KeshavYahoo!
