  1. I just tried to search for it, and could not find it. if you do, I'd like to know too.
  2. theres always credit, or a loan. that way you only pay a little at a time.
  3. Hey man, glad to sere you made it! there is an option you have to pass to the kernel at boot. this worked for me on my tibook: install-gui-benh text see if that helps at all.
  4. Good choice with guarddog too. thats a great problem. easy to configure, but still allows you really customize your firewall. On the issue of using the 9.1 rpms, with 9.2, just keep in mind that linux is ever evolving. The newer version of guarddog was probably meant for the newest version of iptables. It may work, but I know I always like having the latest and greatest. After you get urpmi set up (a must do with mandrake), you can always update the both of them.
  5. what type of connection does the docking station use? is it proprietary? have you contacted dell about this? - not that they would help, but you never know.
  6. X behaves like an actual server program...which could be insecure in itself. It may be totally disabled in that mode. I could be wrong though.
  7. What did I tell you about posting on my forum Riddler...... furious3 furious3 furious3
  8. no, thats not the right directory. you sure you have no dm directory?
  9. probably a stupid question, but can your screen handle 1024x768? many laptop screens have native resolutions and won't run at anything higher or lower. my powerbook will only run at 1024x768 for instance. nothing lower, nothing higher. I say this only because you have tried every method I can think of.
  10. it may be safer to install from source in a seperate directory from your main system like /opt. it will be a harder task, but you won't damage your current kde install that way.
  11. If SCO wants to run with the big boys, the need to be ready to scrap. thumbs up for Computer Associates, Oracle, Dell, Intel, Novell, IBM, and HP.
  12. there's a desktop utility in kde called session manager. you need root access to it, but you can easily add them there. But Qchem is right, just have a look in the folder /etc/X11/dm/sessions there are a bunch of entries there with .desktop extension. just take a look at those to get the syntax right, and make a new one as needed.
  13. can you run it from the terminal? just run "xmms" from a terminal and see what happens. another great resource is: www.rpmfind.net
  14. md5sum checking is an absolute MUST DO when downloading iso's.
  15. xmms will do the whole batch. just put all the wav's in the playlist and open the options menu. go to output plugin and select discwriter. then apply it, close it and click play. it will encode to mp3 at 2x. over and done with.
  16. once you have lame and its buddues installed, you can use XMMS's diskwriter plugin to convert from mp3 to wav. it works just like winamp.
  17. do you know what chipset you have exactly?
  18. phunni, that should be inherant to X11, not gentoo. are you sure you're doing the keys right? its just like you would do if you hit ctrl alt del.
  19. I have this exact same problem at work. all OS's except linux work fine with it. whenever I switch to my linux box, I do >ctrl<->alt<-F3, >ctrl<->alt<-F7. Its a pain, but it works. I was also told that it helps if your KVM is powered.
  20. it may be more browser specific than anything. I could pull the page up just fine with moz on my mac.
  21. I don't know if you have made changes to the page already, but this comes up just fine on my mac. 10.2 - jaguar.
