Dear friends:
I've tried the new Software Manager in LM 8.0 with the intention of
updating (the old MandrakeUpdate). My apologies if I am just blind, but
repeated attempts at updating have failed. I do not see any FTP
addresses or any instructions on how to perform the update. Could

Hi,
Does anyone has experience with using USB Modem
(external) with Mandrake? Does it work? Or should

If USB modem can work with Mandrake, then please
tell me which brand/maker.
Thank you in advance.

Perhaps it is because the notice on the screen says that acceleration in
4.0.3. is still experimental?

I pressed the right mouse button while the pointer was over the clock
display and selected the desired entry from the format submenu. This is
under Gnome. YMMV w/ KDE.

Windows should still be there but you should have installed GRUB on the
master boot record. This would give you the option to boot the OS's on your
PC.
Any external modem should be fine.

Sounds like there may be a problem with your /etc/hosts file.
In /etc/hosts you can run a "min-DNS server" for lack of a better

checks that file for the names first.
So as root vim /etc/hosts and make sure there aren't more then
In the custom install, you can specify your Mouse information, but it
doesn't make you go through that. If you notice on the side during the

next to it. CLick that little start and it will let you configure your
mouse.
