Hi
I need cvs 1.9 in order to install some very specific drivers for my
soundblaster live! 24bits. But I stuck with the cvs 1.11 version. I
tried to find the rpm package for cvs 1.9 with urpmi, but I'm
overwhelmed by all the rpms packages. Can somebody point me toward
the easiest way?
Thank yo
Hello-
I am having some problems getting xawtv to work in Mandrake 10.1

kdetv applications to work, however they behave unreliably and settings
(from ntsc to pal; from us-cable to some other country setting) often

What I've done is in my ignorance begun updating 10.1 when what I had

Hi Aron, no,
I got the 10.1 official download dvd. Everything burned OK. I boot the
comp, I see the splash screen, I press F2, type "expert", [enter]. The
kernel loads
And that's all - I'm left with a blank screen, and nothing else happens.
I had the same problem with 10.0, but then I thought I just burn

hi! does anyone know of an alternative program to the
"date" program in linux? All of our X applications
freezes whenever we use the "date" program to change
the system date. The time the application freezes
depends on the amount of date moved from the current
system date.
I was wondering if you might have any insights into a similar issue that
I'm experiencing.
I was running Mandrake 10.1 Official download version with no mouse
problems whatsoever but I decided to finally do my bit and signed up for
