Re: [newbie] Problem with VMware
I am having the same problem. It asks for the location of my C headers. When I give them, it says that the headers are the wrong version of my kernel and that even if it compiled the proper modules that they would not load in the kernel. -Jason On Tue, 03 Aug 2004 13:19:27 -0400, Gregory Croes [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hallo, guys I still have this error: [EMAIL PROTECTED] gregory]$ su Password: [EMAIL PROTECTED] gregory]# vmware [1] 2621 [EMAIL PROTECTED] gregory]# vmware-config.pl Making sure VMware Workstation's services are stopped.

[newbie] mouse wheel issue
Hello list, I have mouse a wheel problem. It won't scroll up or down. Here is the entry in the /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 Section InputDevice Identifier Mouse1 Driver mouse Option Protocol IMPS/2 Option Device /dev/mouse Option ZAxisMapping 4 5 EndSection This should be working. Since it isn't working I have tried to configure it using the mouse section in the 'Configure your Computer menu-Hardware I have tried all of them listed and it only shows the mouse wheel moving in the down direction -- no matter whether I am scrolling up or down. The mouse is a standard two button mouse with scroll wheel. It is the mouse of an HP Pavilion a250y computer. No other brand markings are on it. Thanks, -Jason __ Do you Yahoo!? Take Yahoo!

[newbie] CD-RW device problem
Hello list, I have the following Cd burner: SONY CD-RW CRX160E It appears to be mounted fine as K3B and xcdroast can both see it. Unfortunately, both act as though there is no disc in it. Another symptom is when I am installing software from the CD's the software installer asks me to place the CD in /dev/hdc (which is the cdrom in question) when I do, it keeps asking me for it. A third similar symptom is when I place a CD in it that does have stuff on it and it will not read it or even place that cool automount icon on the desktop. If anyone knows of a way around this, I would appreciate the help. If you need more information, tell me where to find it and I will provide it. On a side note, this pc was upgraded from RedHat 8.0 and xcdroast worked just fine. Thanks, -Jason __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
