Hey, I JUST installed Liinux 7.0 - 2
FINALLY!
Been working on getting the damn thing to boot up w/o an LI error(argh!)
well, anyway, my problem is that I don't have any idea on how to do nearly
anything, manuals don't help much, because they don't explain how to do
something in enough detail!
So
It happens every few hours and just shows up as a message on my console. I
only noticed it after I started shutting down X and logging out when I
wasn't going to use the computer for a while.
I have an IDE HDD and a cd-rom. That's it.

I must argue this. VI is a very powerful and useful tool if you take the time to

Hi, people!
I install a RPM to the doom game on my Mandrake 6 and when I try to run
"sdoom", the game returns me a message: bash: /usr/games/sdoom: cannot
execute binary file. The binary file in the message is the sdoom or
another binary? Can anyone explain me something? Thank you.

On the other hand, Vi - improved, the glorious Vim , is
worth learning because of its staggering flexibility - and anyone
using Mandrake 6.1 or 7 gets a natty GTK interface with pretty icons
and all the things that those poor souls suckled on Windows need to
feel right at home. Try the Vim Hom

I think you have to be root to run this program, so it's probably not in

Hi,
I am running Mandrake 6.02 on a Toshiba 310CDT.
When I have set it up, I have set it up for multiple x server settings, how do I
switch between those ?
For example 8bit 1260x762
16nit 800x600 etc
Thanks

Dear All,
I D/L'd the Corel Wordperfect Install as six files which were tar and
