  1. I read many topics here about differense between urpmi and apt-get;

    i also heard that debian is another world in comparison to RPM based distros, so i would like to finalize all that differenses in one place.

     

    Tell me about this two different systems from a day-to-day user's point of view: DEBIAN based vs. all others (RPM)

     

    :thanks:

  2. I'll tell you what is my problem:

    I installed this driver strictly by the manual, without knowing what i am doing.

    I'm amazed that i got that far...

     

    About pts - i'll check that (altough i don't even know what it is)

     

    If you can point me to some stuff i can learn from - it'll be great!

  3. Well, thanks to ianw1974, i found and compiled the drivers, but unfortunatly i can't connect to the internet. :cry:

     

    After I synchronize my USB modem to the ISP, i get this error in console:

     

    OK eciadsl-synch: success
    Synchronization successful
    Mounting devpts filsystem...
    mount: devpts already mounted or /dev/pts busy
    failed to mount
    
    [EciAdsl 4/5] Connecting to provider...
    nice: pppd: No such file or directory
    ERROR: failed to connect

     

    :o

     

    Someone knows what all that means?

  4. Well nothing is going to do .asp help except M$ products but NVU is a good stab at WYSWYG but vi works fine for me ... I tend to mix both ways but then I don't do a lot of websites

     

    A couple of years ago I spent 6 months editing M$ HTML in wordpad cleaning out the crap introduced from word and FrontPage.  I have never had a problem with dreamweaver generated code though.. and NVU is pretty good IMHO if this is what you want!

    FrontPage is owfull indeed :puke:, and asp was just an example, php/jsp/cgi will do it as well. But all that editors don't include built-in help for elements, and i think if they would - it'll be nice.

  5. I like M$ concept: Visual InterDev (aka Quanta+) and M$DN. The advantage is that you can get help or a full reference for all HTML/JavaScript/CSS/ASP elements while editing your page. The question is: is there something like M$DN for linux?

  6. Hi, i've heard that Ubuntu distro has become very popular, and i'd like to try it, so i'm gathering some info:

     

    - is it easy for beginners (compare to Mandriva/Fedora)?

    - does it have graphycal configuration program or is it command line?

    - does support some old hardwere like mine (see below)

    - any other usefull info - you're wellcome

     

    Thanks :D

  7. Great, That is going to work.

     

    Even though I changed it in konqueror it did not change in smb.cong

    The only problem I have now, is being able to save the changes I have made. i am getting a error that I am not authorized to change it.

     

    I am the only user, logged in to my name. what can I do?

     

    Kowash

     

    Open the terminal and then:

    - 'su' to root

    - open smb.conf in vim (cd /etc/samba ; vim ./smb.conf)

    - make your changes

    - * to save them: press 'esc' button; type ':'; type wq (w- write; q- quit)

     

    * vim help

     

    That should work.

    Thanx,

     

    My config after I changed it looked like this

    [KOWASHOFFICE]

    path = /home/kowash/Office

    comment = /home/kowash/Office

    public = yes

    guest ok = yes

    writable = yes

    wide links = no

     

    Unfortunately it did not work.

    It was a nice lesson. :D

     

    Sometimes I feel like. It's only me and my PC on some foreign Island called - Ourownthingsworkdifferent :lol:

     

    Anyway. I am eagerly awaiting your reply

     

    Bye

     

     

    Unfortunately, i'm out of ideas. I only told you what i did and that worked for me.

    Maybe, if you start from scratch (after all your trials, you might have messet it all :))

    you might sucseed.

    If i'll come up with something - i would let you know.

     

    Good luck!

    Kowash

     

    Open the terminal and then:

    - 'su' to root

    - open smb.conf in vim (cd /etc/samba ; vim ./smb.conf)

    - make your changes

    - * to save them: press 'esc' button; type ':'; type wq (w- write; q- quit)

     

    * vim help

     

    That should work.

  9. Hi, I also had that problem on my network (Linux/XP) and after several hours of digging (i'm still so noob :) ) i found this:

     

    1) my shared folder '/home/ilia_kr/share' didn't allow other users (only owner could view & edit) - so i chenged it to 'everybody'.

     

    2) in samba's config (/etc/samba/smb.conf) you sould enable this paragraph:

     

    [ILIA_SHARE]
      path = /home/ilia/Share   
      comment = XPshare
      public = yes                    
      guest ok = yes
      writable = yes

     

    'path = /home/ilia/Share' - your shared folder

    'public = yes ' - wether or not others can view shared folder

    'writable = yes' - is the most important for you - it enables writing in your shared directory

     

    also, see MUB's samba FAQ for reference :D

     

     

    Good Luck!
