In any case, the install fails with a 'failed dependency' on
libGLcore.so
I just installed a second copy of Mandrake 8.1 on some extra space I had on a

What do I have to modify to get lilo to show up?

Make sure artsd isn't crapping-out and grabbing a hold of your card thus
making it unavailable to other sound drivers.

the FAQ getting from HYLAFAX said the following but it seems I'm to stupid to

civileme,
Someone posted about switching from Mandrake to SuSe because SuSe
complied or was going to comply, thus hinting that Mandrake would not.
That surprised me so I asked where he heard that.

Civilme and others have stated that mandrake is moving over to being 100%
compliant with the standard..
in fact I think 8.1 was actually 99% compliant, (or thereabouts.)
Check the archives for civilme's posts on the subject.

Do a search for mindi and mondo. T
I created scripts called dial and hangup, and used them to call wvdial.
they also start and stop fetchmail, and the firewall.
I also have: killall wvdial in ip-down.local (and my firewall restart) just
