Hi,
I noticed that Gnome's speed and stability just about tripled when I
started using the "Clean" theme.
Has anyone else noticed this?
Before, it would take as much time to open a program as Windows 98 does
on a 233 MHz Pentium. I guess I was using the default theme for
Enlightenment before,
Hello,
I have three Linux books and none of them really explain what it is I'm
doing when I set an environment variable. I gather that I'm telling my
kernel where to find things, but that's a foggy concept.
My main concern is java libraries. I downloaded jdk117_v1a and
jdk117_v3 and have tho

I keep getting a Netscape popup in the middle of my email/browsing (it
doesn't matter which) that "Bookmarks have changed on disk and are being
reloaded". I have to stop everything and tell it "OK". This is the
first day I have had this problem.
I'm running Netscape 4.7 .
Thanks,

You may want to search the newbie list archives at linux-mandrake.com.
I remember someone somewhere posting this either to this list, or to the
Mandrake newsgroup on Usenet.

Does anyone have any suggestions for an alternative browser for Linux?
I don't like Netscape's, KFM, or Star Office's very much. I won't dare
go into all the problems, though ;-)
Is anyone else noticing GAIM (AOL Instant Messenger) is freezing upon
connecting? I wonder if AOL might have anyone not using their version
of AOL IM for Windows blocked from their system? Like they're doing to
MSN Messenger?
My other concern is that I had a friend here trying to get my modem t
I read the HOW-TO for modems and I'm lost as all get out. I would
appreciate if someone could help me troubleshoot what is wrong by asking
me some questions.
I have a generic (Wisecom) 33.6kbps modem. It is not PnP, and it is not
a winmodem.
Here's all I can tell you so far: the setserial -g
Would you be able to tell me where the newsgroup is? The only one I found on
Deja is German. My local news server doesn't have a StarOffice newsgroup
either!
Thanks!

Hi,
Well I buckled down and reinstalled and this time used fdisk instead of Disk
Druid to create the partitions I wanted, and succeeded. Yay for me.
I told it to format my partitions.
I suppose this is the "fresh install" that I wanted. Well, my KFM still
freezes when I click the shortcut to

Hi,
I uninstalled Mandrake Update because of the problem I had. I'd like to
reinstall it--can someone give me the name of the package on my first CD?
Here's another question:
When I use Kpackage to find a file, I get two errors:
Kprocess error: Can't start dpkg
Kprocess error: Cann't start
I select all of the updates and click "GO". I get the explanations for each
update, click "OK". I enter my root password and click "OK".
I get the "Please wait..." dialog box for a split second, then it disappears.
It isn't updating anything.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi all,
I'm happy to say I was finally able to append = "hdc=cdrom" to my
lilo.conf and my CD-ROM drive is detected more often than not.
1.) I wondered if someone could tell me how to do the equivalent when
using a boot disk, just in case I need to use one someday. It'd be
great to boot with a
Hi,
I'm not sure I understand the reply, but it definitely says "error" and then it
doesn't do anything to find the file. (Just sits there, no HD activity, but it
doesn't crash).
Thanks,

Hi,
What do I need to do to open another virtual console, and get it to run for ex.
KDE?
I log in with password, and type KDE and get a bunch of messages about it not
being able to log into the x-server.
Thanks,
Karen
