[newbie] Two (hopefully) small problems
I have just installed Mandrake 7.1 on my desktop PC (which is also running NT 4.0). I have two (hopefully) minor problems. Firstly, I have inadvertently installed the grub bootloader. Although NT will still boot through it, I would prefer to use lilo and have the NT bootloader boot linux. How can I remover grub so that the NT bootloader boots up first, not Grub? Secondly, mandrake boots up fine and all appears well. However, it only thinks that the PC has 64Mb of RAM. In fact there are 512Mb RAM. How do I presuade Mandrake that the machine has 512MB RAM?

[newbie] Two (hopefully) small problems
I just installed 6.1 this weekend (fresh install) and have two problems with it: 1) The icons in kfm (and a few other programs that use the common back, copy, paste... icons) are messed up. Either they appear in the wrong place (cut and paste look like refresh, for example) or its just a square with garbage in it. This happens at all resolutions and color depths. 2) When I click on the help button on the KDE panel, I get a message box telling me that the main.html file cannot be found. I checked myself and the directory that should be holding main.html is non-existant. Are these a separate download? Thanks for any help. Keep in mind that I just moved from that other operating system this weekend and that I am a total UNIX/Linux moron. If it's any help here are the specs: Mandrake 6.1 PII-400 384M RAM Seagate (ST33210A) 3G IDE HD Diamond Viper V770 (AGP, although Mandrake recognized it as the PCI) Viewsonic PS790 Mike Cathcart __ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
