Good day,

When shutting down or rebooting, the machine hangs after the following

I have just upgraded Mandrake 9.2 to Mandrake 10. At the same time, I
downloaded and installed OOo_1.1.2_LinuxIntel_install.tar.gz. I normally
use OpenOffice via ssh on a remote client running Mdk 9.2. But for some
reason the fonts on the client are garbled: lower case are displayed in

The idea is to use an old p100 (there aren't any new ones) as an X
client on which to display videos. The server is a Pentium IV running
Mandrake 9.2. I am gradually getting there and so far can run totem or
mplayer on the server and watch the results on the client. What I cannot

None of the above unless you have some unpartitioned room on the disk in

AFAIK fips is for FAT partitions (msdos)
fdisk is only for creating new (when there is room) and delet

I have OpenOfficeorg.1.1 on a Mandrake-9.2 machine (gnome) working fine.
But when I use it via ssh on a Slackware-9.0 machine (icewm) the accents

The AbiWord installation on the Slackware machine does not have
Mandrake 9.0
Output from 'df' says hda1 is 9.7G, whereas Mandrake Control Centre says
it is 6G. The latter is correct, the former is the old size before I
resized it. This worries me. ('fdisk' gives the correct size.). Unmounting
and remounting makes no difference.
Any explanation?
