RE: [newbie] VMware 2 run Linux/Win together!

I use VMware in Linux to run Win2000 in a virtual machine, and I use VMware in Win NT to run Linux in a virtual machine - I love it! It gives me the operating system I want whenever I want it. I think when the 30-day license expires, it just gives a message to that effect, and won't start the

[newbie] Video Cards - Any Recomendations?

I am looking for a good video card with video-out jacks (don't really need PC TV). I have been longing for a Diamond Viper 550 card for a long time, now, but since I have been toiling with Linux, I have heard some disparaging comments about S3 cards in general not being "Linux Friendly" - Does

[newbie] VMware Tools ver. 2.0

Are there any VMware users out there using ver 2.0? As of 2.0, the VMware Tools are (supposedly) included in the VMware program download - they no longer exist as a separate package - I have downloaded the 2.0 package for Linux, and installed it - I loaded Win2000 as the guest OS, and it works

[newbie] Compiling from source - guess I'm just not getting it...

Just downloaded the Linux version of cthugha from the web - in tar.gz form - followed the installation instructions, and as usual, the program doesn't work - Can't seem to find the executable, when I do a Find Files in KDE for " cthugha* ", I don't find an executable that works - the closest

[newbie] Virtual Machine Software

I'm sick of dealing with VMware support (or lack thereof) - I have heard mention of a Linux product that provides a virtual machine to run other OS's in (Win95, etc.) Anyone know what it's called, and where I can get it?

If you find that it's not already installed, look in the CD under /Mandrake/RPMS for "wine-991212-1mdk.i586.rpm" Hope that helps.. Michael Holt [EMAIL PROTECTED] on 04/20/2000 08:29:00 AM Please respond to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc:(bcc: Joe Reynolds/ISSC/Texas

Re: [[newbie] Netscape in BlackWhite]

Actually, I had the same problem - Netscape acknowledges the problem, and advises to use a different color depth - I opted to just put up with it and have been using black-and-white Nutscrape w/ 24-bit color. However, just today I tried a new desktop theme (using Enlightenment window manager),

[newbie] Accessing NT LAN Resources

Anyone know how to refer to LAN shares on an NT LAN from Linux? Typically, from Windows, you would use "\\SERVER\SHARENAME" - In Linux, would you have to mount it as a drive, or is there another way?

[newbie] Making S3 Virge work

I have a generic video card, called '3D Excel - VC962-3D' with an S3 Virge chipset - the documentation says it uses the S3d 64-bit engine - It has 2MB VRAM, and in Windo$e it is capable of 1024x768 w/16-bit color - When I try to config X, the only resolution that works is 640x480 (all color

RE: [[newbie] Starting Linux without X] - What next?

Y'all have been a great help in isolating my X probs - As it turns out, the problem seems to be VMWare related (I neglected to mention that I was running in a virtual machine because I thought it was irrelevent) - after several gyrations and major snafu's, I ended up re-installing Linux

Re: [newbie] Partition disappeared, how do I get them back?

I can comisserate with you - I installed Linux on my home PC, and now when I run Partition Magic on it there is just a long yellow box where my partitions should be, with text that reads "No Partition - ERROR" across it - Linux and Windows still boot fine, but I'm frantically backing up my data

I have been hosed several times now by installing enlightenment themes - not sure if it's my fault or if there are a lot of buggy ethemes out there... Anyway, now when I boot Linux, it gets to the ascii mandrake logon screen, then changes video modes as if to go to the X-based logon, which it

Re: [[newbie] Starting Linux without X] - What next?

Okay, now I have Linux running without X - now how do I fix X? Is there an easy way to uninstall X, then re-install it from the Mandrake CD? (or a hard way - I'm open to suggestions...)

I have had good luck running Linux under VMWare on an NT box - haven't tried it the other way around... What VMWare does is to boot a "virtual machine" that runs whatever OS you load in it - it will switch between a windowed or full-screen session, and though it's a little slow, Linux seems to
