I've been running it since it came out and had very good stability with it - kate initially disappeared, but since that, no probs. Might have been just left-over junk on my /home partition. Very pleased with it. Kristi

GeF4Ti4200 MDV2005A 7174 driver But, as mentioned, the FX series will do stuff the Ti's can't, so it's not just a matter of speed. Kristi

just reload lilo - in root console: lilo -v Hope that helps. Kristi

Agreed - I get good cd-r media and for the dvd I get good dvd-r media. Some people have luck with el-cheapo. I don't touch it. I got a 50 pack of Philips 8x dvd-r that has worked great on my NEC drive. ($18 at local Micro Center) When I need cd blanks I go for fuji or tdk. Prices have come way down and are only going to get lower. Hope that helps! Kristi/Kristi1/etc

One thing I do when I'm installing is to tell the installer to format the /boot and the / partitions. This gets rid of all the old stuff. I also have /home on a separate partition so that remains untouched. And yes, I tell it to put lilo or grub on the mbr of HD0. I multiboot Mandriva/xp/win98se/dos, though I only use Mandriva or the Linux I am testing at the moment (when I get bored). Hope that helps! Kristi/Kristi1/etc

To get the answer I subscribed to the kdepim-users mailing list. downloadable as: have fun! Kristi/Kristi1/etc

To be more correct, I should have said I believe I get that too. I will take your action when I get such a list to see what happens, but right now msec/anacron does not appear to be doind anything opn my system - either that or I have a perfect system Thanks for your reply.

They are owned by root, so I suspect a new group which includes root and user and mail (like staff, which I don't think I have added yot, would then allow them to be non wr. By the way, I ran your chmod and it didn't seem to make any difference in the permissions per konqueror. [root@c-65-96-162-92 ~]# cd /var/spool/postfix chmod o-wr -R .../private [root@c-65-96-162-92 postfix]# I've got to go out but I'll look in later. I am not getting reply to post notices, are you? Kristi# later.

I believe that's from anacron and I believe that's correct - Also thanks for bringing it up - I forgot to install anacron when I put up 2005A. Kristi EDIT - how did you chmod them as a group ? or did you do it singly? tia

Yeah :( that's interesting - I just set kmail on one of the accounts to leave it on the server, but it still read the whole test message down, and even deleted it from the server (if it had even left it there) when I deleted it in kmail. Yes, I had a couple things like that in windows that would notify me of something on the server, but not jeopardize the computer till I told it to bring it down. Seems like thunderbird WOULD do that. Let me go check. Kristi EDIT: yes, in Thinderbird, if you check "fetch headers only" in that email account, it will allow you to see only the headers unless you click the message that it gives you in the body area.

doing uname -r gives you the kernel release. To find the release of the source look in /usr/src or do rpm -qa | grep kernel Hope that helps! Kristi

boot something like XP and then put CD2 in and see if it is readable. Did you do a checksum while burning the CDs? Just a thought Hope you find a solution! Kristi

small correction, I run at HIGH all the time now (Mandriva default at install time). Kristi

Please note, as of Mandriva 2005A (KDE 3.4 Club release) the release includes the latest Nvidia drivers already installed! Kristi
