did your integrated i810 sound card get turned on in the bios? I would first disable this card in the bios, then try to reconfigure via Mandrake Control Center. On Monday 17 December 2001 06:14 am, you wrote: I've got a Soundblaster Live card, plus an integrated i810 sound chip. I'm using

I really have no clue... but I'll throw out some suggestions anyway. Take these with a grain of salt. Try setting X to run at the same color depth, and resolution as UT, and see if that fixes it. I believe on a lot of these, the color depth must match. The color depth is configured in

You are suggesting a highly irregular setup. Usually, you want the notebook to be portable. Does the notebook have 2 network cards in it? Why have you chosen it as the internet portal? Linux would make a much better portal. On Friday 07 December 2001 07:25 am, you wrote: Hi... I want
