Thanks - I know that pure scsi burners are more reliable this way, but
I have been using ide-scsi for many years now without any problem, on
many distros - until I upgraded to LM 8.0.
However, I experimented some more with hdparm, and found that the
problem goes away when I turn DMA *off* on

I upgraded from Mdk 6.1 to 7.0 this weekend, and ran into a rather odd
problem with cdrecord. I have a script that burns data CDs by piping
stdout of mkisofs straight into cdrecord, like
mkisofs -J -r dir | cdrecord -v fs=8m ...
However, with the Mdk7 rpm for cdrecord, this produces a
As far as I can tell, these errors are (minor) mandrake packaging

suggested). I also get the identical errors about tixwish and rec, and

I'd say you want to use fetchmail; it can periodically download your
email from a pop server. See http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/fetchmail/.
You should start by installing the fetchmail rpm (if it isn't
installed already), and then read the web/man pages. It essentially
comes down to executing

Hmmm. I'd say the exact opposite: why use smaller partitions when you
can have one large one. It all depends on your application, but over
the years I've found that no matter how carefully you plan your
partitions, sooner or later you'll bump your head against their
limits. At work I deal with

Possibly NT running off an existing disk partition will work; at least
in my case that runs a lot

Try `eject' or `eject /dev/cdrom' or something like that... easy to
create an icon on your desktop yourself... But yes, I suppose it
could/should be an option included with the existing file system
device icon.

Just a $0.02: I would install ssh, and throw telnet out the
door... Unfortunately ssh doesn't ship with Mandrake (I assume because
it's not GPL), so you'll have to get it from somewhere else. The main
site is http://www.ssh.fi.
As a second suggestion: get ssh-1.2.27, not ssh-2x. ssh2 is claimed

Did you try using `vfat' instead of `auto' or `msdos'?
