I don't believe that 8.1 is out yet.
When the *final* release is out, go to www.linux-mandrake.com or
www.mandrakesoft.com.
It is very big (2x650mb) i

A friend of mine burnt me a copy of the 2-cd version of mandrake 8.
I did a full install (expert mode, medium security) and it *never* asked
me to put in the 2nd cd (mandrake 7.2 does).
Do I have to manually install everything on the 2nd cd (rpm -ivh
/mnt/cdrom/Mandrake/RPMS2/*.rpm) or did I mi

I know this is a very, very trivial question but for some reason I can't find
the manual for it:
How do I change the default login group for a user?
I've looked in /etd/passwd and man -a passwd but have found nothing
relevant.
Currently, if I log in my group name is the same as my user name.

Keep the Xaccess file like it is -- with that line -- i.e. the default

Just a guess but have you tried running X in 16bit?
Is X running in the same video mode as Tuxracer (640x480???)?
Hope it helps,

Why is this?
Thanks again,

Hi!
I recently set up a network and fooled around with
my networking config files and now DNS lookups don't appear to work :(,
which explains why I have been recently using Outlook Express to send

Basically, I can connect to the Internet with no

Hi!
Recently, I upgraded my Mandrake 7.2 system (running XFree 3.3.6, with nvidia
128 zx chipset) to XFree 4.0.3. When the computer booted up into KDM, I got
my usual choices (i.e./e.g. KDE, Gnome, IceWM, fvwm etc. etc.).
But now, no matter which one I select, it boots into KDE...(with the

Hi!
I continually see something called a "Load Average" as a statistic for
servers, ftp sites...and even my machine :)
But what does it mean?
The output from "uptime" tells me this:
11:50pm up 2:48, 2 users, load average: 0.49, 0.55, 0.51
So is this saying that my system is being "loaded

Hi!
I've just noticed a new folder in my home directory, called "nsmail".
What made it? What is it for? And do I need it :)?

Hi!
I know this may sound trivial but: How do I enable the joystick? I have an
integrated ES1373 sound chip on my motherboard and I plug a cheap analog
Radioshack joystick into the sound port. I am using OSS in Mandrake 7.2
(2.2-17 kernel), at the moment.
Thanks,

checked the refresh rate used by X for 1024x768x16 and it's higher than what
is reccommended by my manufacturer but still within the limits of my monitor

But why does this happen in the first place and how do I fix it, permanently?
