How do you tell HardDarke or Linux to look on the USB ports for devices?
I have a supported (ZOOM USB) modem (linux-USB.org). LM-7.2 sees my TWO USB
ports.
When I run HardDrake to install a modem, it gives me options of Serial,
ISDN and so forth, but not USB.
What file to I change
Where did you get FontTastic? I installed PP9.0 from 2 sources (download CD)
and all I get when i try to run it some error it can't initialize FontTastic
(and I can't find any such files).

I wouldn't based on my experience with LM-7.2. I can only boot in graphical
mode, even FAILSAFE crashes with a Kernel Panic. I can't install a USB (model
supported by Linux-USB.org) modem, can't install Wordperfect 8 (2 CDs
download tried), I can install Corel Photopaint 9 (1 CD and one download
On my Compaq 7470 it uses 8M shared of 64K RAM for video, so I used the
mem=56M in my setup and it works fine. I can't tell you exactly where, it is
at home.

I'm looking for a version of mandrake 6 (later the better, but not 7) to
download and install.
If you are in N.E. and want some cheap Linux books, two places to look.
Building 19 (20 stores) has computer books for 50c (yes, the 400+ page Linux
ones)
Ocean State Job Lot (many stores), $6.99 (sometimes $4.99) and many of them
include a CD, like the Wordperfect-8 for Linux book.
I put in a standard LM-7.2 setup from a 4 CD set.
First it took two weeks to figure out what was wrong in fstab so I could mount
the CDROM (and Mandrakesoft couldn't help), and finding a place to put
mem=56K so the shared video ram would work.
Still no one can tell me how to use a USB modem.
I loaded Corel PhotoPaint from the CD included with the Brit Linux magazine.
I installs fine, but when I run it it says it can't find the 'path for
Fontastic' fonts.
Any Ideas? I've searched the WWWeb for 'linux fontastic' and come up with
nothing.

7.2 is kinda buggy with the CDROM. If it mounts OK, then you can use it.
In Terminal login to root ('su' then password), then 'umount cdrom' to unmount
it, swap the CD then 'mount /mnt/cdrom' and you can read the new one.

I've had to change my fstab line. This seems to to work at the start of the
line
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
instead of
/mnt/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
no 'fs=is09660,' just 'iso9660 '
Sorry I can't recall the entire line. It is at home.

Hello to everybody. Thanx for your help, you guys
Which version did you install?
I tried the XFree86 RPM on the Mandrake site and it says it is missing files.
Since I installed LM 7.2 from a CD, and am upgrading with a Mandrake RPM, how
can it be missing files??? They should either already be there, or be in the
RPM.
