Hi All, Took Jeff's advice and considered my current situation ... (ie, two kids under 3 years and self employed = read! when?) and reinstalled redhat 8.0 which I can at least find my way around in. I have Debian on another machine so that I can play around with that and I have found a guy in Wollongong who is willing to teach all that is Debian (when his first Semester Uni exams are over).
I have two questions I'd like to post. The first is What Linux Anti-Virus are you using? Second question relates to a weird problem in Redhat 8.0 with sound. It works under gnome but not under KDE? It's the same AC97 card that I was fooling with in Debian. On a final note, I did get sound working under debian, I reinstalled debian, pressed F3 key, used the bf24 image ran sndconfig and listened to some mp3s. I'll keep you posted from time to time on how I go Regards Mick -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
