[newbie] HEY, NO SPAMMING

I got an e-mail from Chris Harvey that was bounced from the mandrake mailing list server. In my opinion he should be immediately terminated from the forum for abusing it in such a gross manner. Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://.mandrakestore.com

[newbie] gcc problems

I've heard and read rumors that the version of gcc included in Mandrake 8.0 is bad. As evidence I recently upgraded my nvidia video driver and had to compile it about 50 times before the module would successfully load. Has anyone else heard, read, or otherwise experienced the same?

[newbie] ntfs support?

I've heard alot about the ntfs support module being really really buggy. One can read horror stories of it completely destroying some people's ntfs partition and needing a format. Is ntfs support really this buggy? I'm running windows2000 on my first drive and mandrake 8.0 on my second

[newbie] Aureal Vortex 2 is weird

OK, so my sound works fine on the desktop (kind of) but it doesn't work at all in UT. Can anyone explain this? I heard through the grapevine that maybe I should try piping it through esound, which I did. No change though. There were some recent posts about sound not working on some people's

[newbie] aureal vortex 2 and mouse problems

I have installed the latest drivers from aureal.sourceforge.com and they work... well kind of. I have limited desktop sound, but it doesn't appear able to handle mutiple streams. Also, I have NO sound in Unreal Tournament. BTW, thanx to all those who replied with some great info on my video

[newbie] mesa GL removal

So, I'm a big gamer, but still want to tear myself away from the windows OS. I'm starting to learn more and more about how linux works and interacts with it's hardware. One of the things that is still illuding me though is having successful, reliable 3d support. After succesfully screwing

[newbie] ok, so mandrake 8.0 is out, need info

The betas of 8.0 have been using lilo as a bootloader... but one of the things I liked about LM 7.2 was that it used grub as it's primary boot loader and all I had to do was tell it where my other os was and it loadedneccesary files with a chainloading system. Lilo cannot do this. So did

[newbie] Bootnet.img problems

I know this is supposed to bea mandrake forum but I commonly see posts about Suse and other distributions. I'm currently using Mandrake 7.1 but not wanting to buy any more cd's but still wanting to upgrade I decided to attempt a network install of redhat. If anyone knows how to do a network

[newbie] so, I broke my mouse

Hehe, accidently set my mouse to usb when it is in fact ps/2... HEHE. Anyone know a common file where linux stores all this stuff so I can edit it with vi? :) BTW, how do I get my mouse wheel working?

[newbie] AHHHHHHHH!! too many problems

OK, This is the second time I've tried going the linux route... it was going good until I can't get X to switch to my TNT2 Ultra without throwing an error at me. It's only recognizing 128 megs of ram. I have 256. The first 128 are in 2, 64 mb sticks. Under HardDrake my vortex2 is

Re: [newbie] Dual boot: Mandrake and NT question??

This is what I'm currently trying to get running in windows2000 using NTFS. The problem is that lilo doesn't recognize any NTFS partition. I think I read the same tutorial you did, but I haven't got it working, let me know if you have any success. Adam - Original Message - From:

Re: [newbie] (OT)Half-Life server question

I installed mandrake using "developer" as the install type and then ended up running a dedicated counter-strike server for awhile and it worked fine. Just give it a try... there are several files you need to download, just look on www.planethalflife.com for some great tutorials on how to get the

[newbie] Mandrake Update

I don't appear to have drakconf in my installation of mandrake 7.1. I couldn't find anything to download off of mandrake's site. I found an older version of drakconf floating around on the internet. From what I can gather DrakConf is the mandrake update program. Can anyone point me to the
