  4. Mandrake9.2

    in Hardware

    Posted

    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

  8. updating mdk9.2

    in Installing Mandriva

    Posted

    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

  9. okular and apache

    in Software

    Posted

    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

    Have you tried:
    mount -t ufs -o ufstype=44bsd /dev/sdXX /mount_point

    # mount -t ufs -o ufstype=44bsd /dev/sda2 /media/hd2/
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda2,
   missing codepage or helper program, or other error
   In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
   dmesg | tail  or so

    and

    # dmesg | tail
ufs was compiled with read-only support, can't be mounted as read-write

    If you have set up on-line media, then installing this package will also install any required dependencies.

    thanks Jim

    Like media I have:

    PLF Free

    PLF Non-free

    Main

    Main updates

    Contrib

    Contrib Updates

    Non-free

    Non-free Updates

     

    Do I need something else?

     

    BTW ... If I go to MCC-> configure media -> add after a while I got:

    Unable to add medium, errors reported:

...retrieving failed: aria2 failed: exited with 1
unable to access the distribution medium (no media.cfg file found)

Medium: Official2009.0- ()

     

    I use proxy to connect to In.

  18. Virtual Box OSE

    in Virtual Machines and Emulators

    Posted

    Hi there.

    For many reasons I want to run some Windows programs (Office 2007, CorelDraw, etc.) on my Mandriva Box. I tried to install Office 2007 through wine but couldn't succeed. Anyway I succeed with Office 2003.

     

    Now I want to try to install WinXP on my Mandriva with a virtual machine. In MCC I search for VBox and I got dkms-virtualbox - VirtualBox OSE kernel module Version: 2.0.2-2mdv2009.0. I don't know if this is the package for running Sun VirtualBox?

     

    Do you know some other VM that can be run in Mandriva?

     

    Thanks

    Unable to add medium, errors reported:

...retrieving failed: rsync failed: exited with 35

    I'm using a proxy server to connect to Internet.

    Thanks a lot
