[newbie] USB 2.0 PCMCIA

Hi all, I have an STLab PCMCIA USB 2.0 card that I believe is detected by Mandrake 10. The only problem is that my external hard drive isn't picked up when I have it plugged into the 2.0 card. If I plug it in to the 1.1 ports, it detects as /dev/sda1 and mounts to /mnt/windows as I

[newbie] Power Off

Ok, I recently took my laptop to 100% Linux for the OS, and I do run Windows, but I run it the way it should be...with the ability to minimize it when it gets in the way (via Win4Lin). My problem is that when I tell KDE to power off my computer, it gets through the shutdown screen and the

Hi all, I was wondering if there was any way to get FrontPage 2000 server extensions on an Apache web server (not sure what version). Also, if there is a way, I think I remember hearing about a frontpage module for apache, is there any major security risks besides the fact it is Microsoft?
