Hello Mandrake..
I'm having a strange issue with mounting my local files systems under 2.4.x and
the latest version of e2fsprogs.
Well i'm guessing that you can't connect to the x server because it's not
running?
[john@homer music]$ rpm -qf /etc/rc.d/init.d/xfs
XFree86-xfs-4.0.1-28mdk
So there's a package that has to be installed, and then you have to start the
server with service: "service xfs start" (as root).
Do you thi

I have to use kernel 2.2.19 in my laptop (to be able to use a driver),

Don't worry about Reiser and booting; Mandrake sets up a ramdisk. It's
all done automatically during the install. If anything, I'd look into the
notebook pointer/mouse issues with MDK 8.0. That seems to be the most
frequent gotcha reported on this list. No problem with mdk 7.2 though.

I'm getting ready to do a Mandrake 8.0 install on my notebook with just /and
swap partitions and want to use Reiser. When you pick Reiser during install that

This is becoming a FAQ :-) Mandrake broke the PS/2 code because their
developers had weird keyboards with empty PS/2 ports that were causing
everything to lock up during boot time since they weren't using those
ports. So they disabled it.
Some folks have been able to get it to work, but most

Dear Klar and friends:

You have to activate xscreensaver by typing in the console:

This activates the screensaver demon. Now select your screensaver. Close

There are serious problems with fonts in LM8.0. This is *very* noticeable in
KDE for instance. The optimisations they used in compiling libtype1.a screwed

You should be able to use the reiserfs module even when your root fs is on a

module inside. To create the initrd image, use "mkinitrd", after ensuring
that the reiser module is in the /etc/modules.conf file. Add the ini
