Do you have scsi-emulation enabled ? Pass the option hdx=ide-scsi to the
kernel at boot (through lilo or grub), where x is the "hd" number (a = first
primary, b = first secondary, c = second primary etc.)
Try "cdrecord -scanbus" to see if the recorder is recognized.

Hi everybody,
Do to the lack of a readme file, I ran an rpm -Uvh --nodeps --force
*.rpm, as I was getting all sorts of dependency errors while upgrading
from KDE2.1 beta 2 to KDE2.1 Final Release. Bad idea. I had to reinstall
MDK7.2.
I'm back to square
ly noticed it.
Sorry if i was a bit harsh.. I respect other people's beliefs. I just meant
that meanings on right and wrong was different back then (see above).

If you hold down the ALT key you can drag the window around no matter where
in the window the cursor is (assuming you use kde).
Btw, if your monitor/gfx-card is able to show higher resolutions than 800x600
you probably got some settings wrong somewhere.. Try running mandrake's

So is there a Visio-like tool for Linux or not? I'd like to know, too.

Just like the e-mail message you got, use FIPS. I used it on *my* new Dell
that had only one WIndows 98 partition. Worked very well. I went the extra
mile and removed my Windows cache file and defragged the disk. Used FIPS then
re-set the cache. Been working great with no problems.

Samba does come with it. When you install Mandrake 6.0 it is an optional
package to install. If you have already installed Mandrake and never selected
the package then you can go back and run the RPM for Samba.

Hello,

You never said what you inteneded to do with the Linux software. I assume you
want to create a partition on your Windows 98 drive to make room for a Linux
install. I did this myself. Yes, I sweated it for a bit but it all came out
okay. I use a floppy to boot into Linux instead of using LILO
it is the RAM. Maybe it is the CD? Maybe it is the
CD-ROM drive? Any suggestions?

We run Sybase at work for our in-house apps. But, if your application does not
need to do "fancy" transactions or stored procedures than MySQL is my choice. The
speed blows Sybase away because it doesn't have all that "overhead".

I would say that as long as you have a good boot disk and/or have a copy of the
old kernel on the hard disk that you should go ahead and crank yourself a new
kernel.
I was also a little intimidated my first couple tries. After all I thought to

Jim, you'll be needing Samba. Check out their web site at
http://www.samba.org. You can install it via an RPM, or tar file. Using an
RPM *should* set everything up for you. I *think* it will also put the two
daemons in your inetd.conf but am not sure. You can then use "smbclient" to

You might be thinking og Kpackage for KDE. It is a *very* nice RPM front end.
Kpackage should already be installed. Just look off of your menu bar in System I
think.

Sounds like an "encrypted password" problem. I bet when you click on the
sahre in Network Neighborhood it asks for a password for the a share with
"$" in it. If so, you must enable password encryption in your Samba setup.
