[newbie] MandrakeMove Download edition config.
Hi, does anyone know if you can configure Shorewall on the download edition of MandrakeMove. I can open the files as root but when I go to save the newly configured file it won't allow me. Is this because I am reading the file off the CD Rom and am unable to write to it? I cannot get the MCC firewall set up either, default is "no Firewall". If I change its configuration it does not save the changes and I cannot get iptables to start.(I presume they are tied into this firewall). Can one do these config changes with the Mandrakesoft packaged product only? It also doesn't recognise my USB Flash Drive although it is on the list of recognised USB drives for MdkMove.

[newbie] MandrakeMove, Printing problem
Dear Club, with all the hundreds of Club Emails I have received, cannot understand why no one has replied tomine, as under. I have in fact solved the scanner problem, that now works perfectly, but only if I use as Root!! perhaps this is a key to the printer solution. On an Acer Aspire 1300 laptop, AMD, MandrakeMove recognises and installs my HP Deskjet 960C with four suitable drivers and says printer ready and waiting but any printing job is just recorded on the job list with "cancelled" and the printer never starts, have tried every combination of reinstalling, with no success. Similarly, surprisingly this OS is the first to have the drivers for my Epson Perfection 1250 (photo) Scanner. For this it lights the Photo light straight away but does not continue the boot of the main scanner. Graham Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

I've been using Knoppix for 6 months now as a rescue tool, and tested MM for the same purpose yesterday when I saved "The ONLY copy of my thesis!!! SOB!!" for a young woman who appears to know quite a lot about quantum electrodynamics but nothing at all about backups. You boot the machine, mount the remaining readable hard drive partitions (usually automatic), connect to the network (all in the GUI) and save the data to your Samba server where it should have been backed up in the first place. You restrain yourself from announcing that you usually get paid with sexual favors for work like this by remembering that you are married to a formidable woman, the code of conduct forbids messing with students, and with the thought that a person so lacking in common sense would probably babble through the whole thing anyway. MM looks very slick. It's obviously based on the "Discovery," one CD version of 9.2, which is why you only get KDE. The down-loadable edition recognizes a USB key but has no way to save the configuration to either one of those or to a hard disk. That's what you get with the box: they recompile with one new pragma and you buy a fairly expensive USB key from them. It may even be worth it. I travel a lot and frequently have to use "strange" Windows machines to check on my email and to monitor experiments. Having an OS on a CD and USB key that I could stick into any modern PC without doing a thing to the underlying OS or leaving a trace behind and *not having to to any reconfiguring* would be a good thing.

Okay, I've been lurking for a week on this. At the usual risk of sounding stupid, what is this disk good for? All it's done is irritate me because it boots into kde when I had such a time sorting out all the installs on my assorted boxes. Doesn't seem to do anything memorable though. Can't save anything either. Doesn't sing and dance. Beside basic mdk love, why would anyone buy it? Enlighten me.
