#/bin/bash>PS
Then if there is a ID trying to call the modem Kill it, Type
#/bin/bash>Kill Which is the Id that is calling to it Like Kill 145 etc..
That is a far as I can go. Have not
I wrote recently about a problem with the load failure of Venus 6.0 on a

I am configuring kppp dialer on mandrake 6.0. It tells me the modem is

Why are you making a /home directory???

Hmm, now it is installing its 6.0 self, and my hard drive is a clicking
away. I'm resisting the urge to stare at the screen and try to
understand what all those cryptic things are whipping past me, awks and
groffs and GTKs, I dont know what they hell they are anyway. But I CANT

I upgraded my Mandrake 6.0 kernel to 2.2.9-27 ( and all the other
updates as of
16/6/99 ) and had to re-compile the kernel so that my ATAPI CD burner
would use
SCSI emulation. Well the burner is fine, but I now get two error

I'm not sure what's wrong, and it would probably help if we knew the exact
error messages, but I can suggest a couple things.
Next time you reboot, try typing "linux 1" at the Lilo prompt. This should
boot the "linux" image to boot level 1 (single user mode). It won't go

Could anyone help me with one or more of the following?
1. SOUND CARD NOT WORKING: I have a Sound Blaster PCI 64, which wasn't correctly
recognized at the moment of installing Venus; it doesn't appear in the list of
