, this might be your solution. However, if you haven't and wish to do
so without reinstalling, I am afraid you will have to ask others here to

When Mandrake starts up, a list of various drivers/modules/devices scrolls on the
screen. I'm sure you all know
what I'm talking about. Strangely enough, the first time I installed Mandrake Linux,
this list was displayed in the
text console. Since I reinstalled Mandrake, the list scrolls
I'm sure this has been asked a thousand times, but what's the best laptop for the
average Linux distro?
I had, at first, targeted Compaq's Presario 2800T, but I caught wind that Compaq's
suck for Linux. (This could
explain my current problems) I'm buying two new laptops for me and my boss, and
Joe,
When I received errors like that, it was because I was trying to run a program via
WINE from a directory that wasn't
mapped in WINE. In other words, you're trying to run a program in directory A, but
there is no Drive mapping in the
WINE config file for directory A.
I could have
Has anyone thought of anything else I can try with this laptop? As far as I know, I'm
using the latest drivers with
XFree86 4.xx and I can't figure it out. Again, the last install of ML9.0 on this very
laptop did not have the
problem, but now it pops up again. I've already reinstalled ML9.0

help your problem IF it has the same video card as the 700 series.

Okay, this definitely fits in the newbie catagory...
I've been playing around with my dual-boot Win2k/ML9 install, when it finally got to
me that I can't really interact
with the Windows partition, due to the NT file system. So, I decided to downgrade the
Windows install to Win98SE.
Now,

Flux,
My only comment on your predicument is that I can't see why you are
downgrading to Win 98 SE? Did you have a problem with Win 2K that makes
you want to go to a less robust and older version? Win 2K can be reloaded

REAL newbie question here:
Is there any way to get removable media to work in Linux the way it does in the
Windows/Mac world?
It kinda bugs me that I have to unmount the cdrom just to eject it. Case in point, if
I accidentally hit the eject

Okay, it seems I need to answer my own question:
I'm still a newbie at Linux, and so I had no idea *why* I couldn't get those
halt/reboot/logout options to appear.
Well, after playing around, just looking and looking all over in the menus, I ran
across the Login Manager. Its

I don't know if its just my level of security or what, but the options to logout,
halt, and reboot don't show up
when I logout of KDE in Mandrake Linux 9.0. I previously had RedHat Linux 7.3
installed, and the options were
there. What am I missing? Is there a security level that will
First question, Why are you running Linux in win

explain using KDE's Kppp program, it is listed under
