Hi, Paul! I knew about the Dell site. However, that driver is for Maestro-2. I don't know if that will work with my Maestro-3, and I'm reluctant to try. In fact, when I bought the laptop they said "no drivers for linux available". They were almost completely wrong ;). Thanks anyway. Olof -

[newbie] Mandrake...too many apps?

2000-09-18 Thread mdk-newbie-g
One of the few things I don't care for with Mandrake is the large number of apps it installs by default that are of little use to me. Couple this the seeming all or nothing selection process and the lack of documnetation (that I can find) on exactly what is included in the Misc category or not

Does anyone know how to use the setserial command to change the IRQ setting of a modem to IRQ 5. For some reason, linux seems to want to use IRQ 4 but that creates a conflict. I've jumpered my modem to use IRQ 5 (which is free) but linux doesn't want to recognize it as that. I read that I need

The best thing you can do in this situation is install Linux on it's own partition instead of installing it behind a DOS partition. It's less work and far less headache then the way you're attempting to do it now. lnx4win is VERY buggy at the moment and to tell you the truth IMHO it's the worst
