What do I need ? Thanks in advance, Oder. I have been unable to use xconfig since at least 2.4.21 and all my posts to cooker went ignored. There must be a bug somewhere, but I don't know where to find it. This actually brought me to the benefits of make oldconfig, which process your old config file and only asks you questions about the new options. -- /g Outside of a dog, a man's best friend is a book, inside a dog it's too dark to read -Groucho Marx Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

are there any xf86 (ver 4?) config tools for mndrake 7.2 that do not use x other than XF86Config?

Re: [newbie] XConfig
Yes, you can use the Xconfigurator tool in console mode, and it's very easy to use.

Re: [newbie] Xconfig help
Dear all, Thank you for your help. I went back into xconfigurator and changed the monitor and resolution. I also changed the mouse. It ended up working. I was shocked. The graphics and fonts are slightly larger than normal but that is the way I like it. My mouse works, too! My next job is to get the cable internet going that I was set up with in Windows 95. After that I plan to set up the internal Atapi zip drive. The Cd rom works fine and I believe the floppy does, too. I did not do sound yet but finally got that to work when I first installed Linux, so I am sure I will get it going again. Not that I care that much, but is there anyway to access my Windows 95 or the files that are hiding on my D drive that I cannot access right now? When my computer crashed I lost access to it on both C and D drive. I tried reinstalling Windows 95 before I tried reinstalling LINUX but it just would not happen. I ended up reinstalling Linux on my C drive and I believe that my D drive has the Windows 95 but I can't get there yet. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you very much for your help. Sincerely, Marcia
Re: [newbie] Xconfig help
is there anyway to access my Windows 95 or the files that are hiding on my D drive that I cannot access right now? mount -t vfat /dev/hdaX /mnt/mountpoint where X is the partition # on the first drive (/dev/hdb for second drive, /dev/hdc, etc...) and /mnt/mountpoint is the mount point where you'd like to stick it. Kinda' like mapping a drive in windows and selecting which letter to call it. if the filetype (-t ) "vfat" doesn't do the trick, try " msdos", "umsdos", and possibly "autofs". umount /dev/hdaXwill unmount the partition. --Greg - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dear all, Thank you for your help.

Re: [newbie] Xconfig help
Dear Anyone, I crashed my linux and windows a few weeks ago. Had a local linux friend/expert help me to to reinstall linux-mandrake 7.0. Xwindows did not configure automatically so he helped me do it manually. We got a huge KDE screen and I do not know how to fix it. The font and graphics are huge and the mouse does not work . He is not available to help me now. I checked as much documentation and mail archives as possible I think. I have a generic S3 Virge card with 2048 memory and a high frequency SVGA monitor. What can I do to fix it? I tried XF86Setup and that did not get me anywhere. I am a newbie so please explain every detail. Thank you very much. Marcia

Re: [newbie] Xconfig help
I did not try XFdrake. Can one use it at the Lilo command prompt? How do I run XFdrake? I did go through the xconfigurator again and got my mouse to work now, however the screen, graphics, and icons are still huge and it would be hard to see what is going on unless I can do it from a terminal window. Any help will be greatly appreciated.Thank you very much for your help. Marcia
Re: [newbie] Xconfig help
haha, I can remember when I tried installing Linux. I always get the big letters going across my screen. and the menu button filled half my monitor. Never forget that. I finally got that resolved after turning the PNP in my bios setup off. after that, I never had the problem again.

Make config will work without it (because it's a script), but you can't compile anything (including the menuconfig and xconfig programs) without a C compiler. LLaP bero
