Audio, Printer queue and Mouse button

Hi! I've got three questions: 1) I have no sound on my computer. I guess I don't have a proper module installed, but I don't seem to have one. Could anyone tell me its name if this is the fault? I have a Soundblaster 32 sound card. It works fine with Windows so there's no wrong with the card. 2)

Boot problem

Hello! Now, I wanted to boot my machine in Linux. There's been no problem with that until now. All that comes up is: "LIL-" And then there's no response. I haven't explicitly changed anything with the boot mechanism. The only thing I have done is installing ssh (Secure shell). I've got another

make

Hello! I want to make a file in order to install a program. But I can't find "make" anywhere on my disk. I've tried looking for it in dselect too, without success. Where can I find it? I have gcc. _ __ __ | _ \ | |/ /

Open Look GUI

X

Hello I've finally managed to make X work. At least in a way. When I write "startx" I get a patterned background and a square in the upper left corner in which it says xterm. I have no mouse response, even though I have in text mode. All I can do is to press Enter. Then the square disappears and e

RAMDAC troubles

Hi I managed to fix my network problem. I just had to find the right module. The right one was the second last.. Now, I've downloaded XFree86. It's just that it won't start, because of my graphics configuration (I think). It says: . S3: Unknown RAMDAC type s3gendac *** A configured device fo

Installation problem which now is network problem

Hi I've had a problem with my installation. The installation program couldn't seek on my hard disk. After I started a shell, repartitioned and ditched boot manager, Linux is now up and running. Unfortunately it's not up and running to that extent I would like to. I have no contact at all with the

Installation problem

Hi It's been a while since I wrote about this but it's been a tough week. I repeat my problem. I'm trying to install debian linux on my computer. It works fine until I'm supposed to partition my hard drive. Then fdisk complaints that it can't seek on it. This is the message I get: FATAL ERROR: C
