Hi there. I have on my computer Md2009.1. I updated the system and the kernel 2.6.29.6-desktop-586-1mnb was insatlled. After reboot the kernel doesn't start. I had to boot my comp with the old kernel 2.6.29.3-desktop586-1mnb there is something wrong with 2.6.29.6 or I missed something? thanks [moved from Installing Mandriva by spinynorman]

Thanks scarecrow! I tried Md2009one but doesn't boot, all distros with kernel 2.6. doesn't boot (Mandriva one, Arch, TinyMe) I tried puppy too but it doesn't recognize my PCMCIA so I cannot networking. I'm still searching to bring up the interface I tried DSL but when I installed on HDD it destroyed my MBR so I have to reinstall Win and everything. This distro lacks in living with other OS on HDD. Finally Mdk9.2 was a reasonable choice. Now I have on my box Win98SE, Mdk9.2, Puppy4.2.1, FreeBSD7.2, but just for Win and Mdk I could bring up the network. For the others I'm still searching. After finding a solution I can compare them in term of speed and everything

Thanks Greg2, I did cardctl suspend 0 and my PCMCIA stoped but when I reboot the same message: Shuting down loopback interface Stopping pcmcia: cardgr [707]: executing: './network stop eth0' unregistered_netdevice ...... ufff and I had to use again "reset" botton When booting the network interface is bring up before PCMCIA card, so bringing up network report [failed] and after pcmcia start the network is on. and Mandrake9.2 was the maximum that I can put on my old box any sugestions

Hi there. I raised up with Mdk9.2 on my old computer Toshiba Tecra 510CDT (P1, 148MB ram, 40GB HDD). I have some problems with my PCMCIA card. When I stop the computer the servive cardmgr doesn't stop. It report: unregister_netdevice: waiting for eth0 to became free. Usage count =2 And because of that the system doesn't stop and I have to push the "reset" button. How can I solve that? thankx

thanx Greg2, so it's better to install packages from there than to try to update the kernel to 2.6 and to install the latest packages?

Hi there. I found an old laptop, Toshiba Tecra 510. The processor is Pentium I and 144MB memory and 40GB HDD. I succeed to install Mandrake 9.2 on it with X and blackbox as WM. Mdk9.2 has kernel 2.4 . can I update to 2.6.? It's a minimal install without MCC I want to install some software through urpmi, how can I add new media since my kernel is 2.4 tahnks

Hi there I have 2 questions 1. Does anyone knows how to print odd or even pages in Okular? I used kpdf for reading pdf files but I found that now Okular is the default app for *.pdf 2. How to install apache22? In MCC > software management I search for "apache" and had a huuuge list. Which one to chose? Apache-base? I tried also # urpmi apache2 No package named apache2 The following packages contain apache2: moin-apache2, moin-apache2-unsafe You should use "-a" to use all of them I don't need moin-apache thanks

Hi there. It seems I have problems all the time with adding media in a fresh installed Md. I just installed Md2009Spring and # urpmi.addmedia --distrib --mirrorlist 'http://api.mandriva.com/mirrors/basic.2009.0.i586.list' ...retrieving failed: aria2 failed: exited with 2 unable to access the distribution medium (no media.cfg file found) unable to add medium did I miss something thanks
