I have two web browers of choice konqueror and Firefox. My problem is konqueror half work and firefox keep timing out. When im in my yahoo mail with konqueror and want to rely or forword a message the buttons will not activate.

Yes that is right Firefox just times out (Not connecting) and Konqueror has a problem with the reply and forward buttons all others seems to work fine. I will start a new post about the browser but originally I had problem with the DSL which led to these problem so I just thought I would ask here.

No it is not a lab top but I had to turn that acpi off (It has a hibernation button) . Yes I am sure that I typed the password and screen names corretly. I will try to upgrade to a updated verison and see if that works. Will I have to uninstall the current verison or will it overwrite?

It seem like my hotmail and gmail is working. I also found the in yahoo mail the delete, spam, and move buttons work just not reply and forward. I still cant get firefox to connect to anything

Ok using my DSL. I have two web browers of choice konqueror and Firefox my problem is this will konqueror half work and firefox keep timing out. When im in my yahoo mail and want to rely, forword,etc the buttons will not activate. It is like it is treating it as a picture or somthing. I would like to get both of these working.

Well the computer will not be set on a network at this time single user computer. The thmodem is from Quest and it is a DSL Modem with wireless Gateway by ActionTec. I would guess that since it is DSL the IP will be dynamic right?(I'm could be wrong). It will not be a wireless setup. I have the choice to use a USB or Ethernet connection so I choose Ethernet .

Ok I have Comcast cable and my Mandriva-Move is able to connect to the internet but I also have Quest DSL and it will not connect to the net. This wouldn't be a problem, but soon I will not have the cable connection only the DSL. I have only used linux for 2 day and I dont have a clue how to get the DSL to connect. If some one could give me a walk thru of what to do I would be highly thankful.

I setup my yahoo, msn, google talk and aol account in Kopete. When I put my password in it keeps tellling me that my password is wrong, but it is not and they all say the same thing so nothing will connect. I am using Mandriva-move and the Kopete version is 0.8.0 (Using KDE 3.2 BRANCH >= 20040204). How can I fix this I have only been using linux for about 2 days now so I'm learning my way around please provide as much details as possible.

thanks for the info. All I have to do know if learn my way around the system

Thanks alot scarecrow acpi=off did the trick. So let me ask you want does it mean. I'm trying to gain as much knowledge possiible. I play around with this for a while to try to get the hang of things I dont think I saw a documentation page for move so can I just use one of the others.

I will check my bios but I dont think their is. Also I might have typed it with a space so I'll try it without

Ok when I hit the f1 key and get the command line I used both linux acpi=off nopcmcia and livecd acpi=off nopcmcia but only the linux acpi = off nopcmcia was reconized. From what I can see during inialization I get to the point where it say's "uncompressing Linux...ok, booting the kernel." Then the screen flashes a few times and the computer reboots itself. *note When I tried other live cd my computer hanged at this spot. The cd would eventually stop spinning.

So Scarecrow should I still use sbm or boot straight from the cd then

Well I burned the smart boot manager but It didnt solve my problem (same results as stated above). Whats else should I try ?

No, being lazy is not an issue. I am new to this so I like to get it right with minium error. So I need to burn that zip file as an iso image is what you telling me right. Also, how exactly do you build such a file?
