Pardon my jumping in here. I'm new to the list and taking a HUGE stab in the dark here.
I notice you have an @home account. By any chance, is this server also doing any
firewalling? If so, is it configured to allow ports 25 and 113? You should have both
ports
open.

If you get a return of "make-3.79.1-5mdk" you have it installed. If
you did a "workstation" install, it isn't, and you won't get that

I was getting the same problem, its wierd because sometimes mandrake
installed the make command files or whatever they are and sometimes
they didn't. What you need to do is go to the rpm installer packager thing
and look for make on your install cd, then install it. It should work fine

It would appear that those items simply hadn't

Because Win4Linx requires direct access to DOS and this is blocked and

I had the same problem, and found that in Linux the SB Live card and USB use
the same IRQ. That problem did not occur in Windows or when I switched back to

Phillippe,
Try to go into your CMOS and disable PNP. That could be the culprit.
Just a suggestion.

I had a similar problem with another machine that had an older sound
blaster card. HardDrake did show the correct card, but I got no
sound. What I did was changed the DMA values. After doing so, the sound
worked great!
I don't know if this would apply to SB Live, but it might be worth a sho
Hum... it didn't here... it insisted on activating the onboard soundchip
and Linux refused to start completely after this, it hung while loading
the soundmodule.

Hi Philippe
I wrecked my Soundblaster PCI 128 and bought a Soundblaster Live! Player
1024, Harddrake plays the sample fine, but when I try to take over the
settings I get an error message... I worked on it for about a week but
didn't find a solution. So I bought a Soundblaster PCI 128 again.

Same here - 7.2 was the first mandrake release that found and correctly
configured my SBLive ! Value out of the box. Do you have no sound at all ?
Have you tried wavs and mp3s ?

I use a Soundblaster Live Value, and had no problems. Mandrake 7.2 found
and configured it, no problem. Beats the heck out of me as to what
happened. I would try another install.

As had posted before .. the reason that it is doing that (depends on your
compuiter of course) from what I found is that there is a resource conflict
with the USB bus. In my system both sit at 9 and that renders it mostly

For some reason, a lot of people have problems with SB Live! cards in

Hi. I also have a Dell laptop (Inspiron) with the Xircom Cardbus
Ethernet + Modem. I haven't had many problems with linux. I'm assuming
you've got a DSL or Cable connection if you want it to pick up the IP on
startup. This I believe is a quirk with the Xircom cardbus, it work

Is it hanging on the floppy drive? I installed Mandrake
on a DELL Laptop also and even though I never had the floppy drive in the
machine it automagically mounted it during startup. Then it would hang
trying to unmount it. If this is the case, edit the /etc/fstab and comment
out the line
Probably your WD drive. Compile a kernel for your machine using 7.0
install, dump it on floppy made with "blank.img", and you'll be fine.

Try running an md5 checksum on the iso image. Compare it to the md5 that is
listed where you downloaded the image. Most likely, you lost a few bits
during ftp-ing. Also, you might have downloaded it with ASCI, and not with
binary. This WILL cause the problem.

James.

I've downloaded and burned quite a few ISO files. I always like to check
the md5sum for the file and make sure that it is correct. Normally I do this
under Linux but I also found an md5sum utility for Windows. Just type "md5sum
mandrake7-2.iso" and see what you get. I don't remember wher
