  1. that should in theory be it. lilo will see the XP partition, and automagically add an entry for it. then at the reboot, you can use lilo to boot either XP, or mandrake.

     

    BTW. if you don't format the /home partition, all of your user settings will be preserved, even after a complete reinstall. so don't format /home!

  2. well, we can see where those things installed to by doing this in a terminal

    as root:

     

    updatedb

    locate yahoo

     

    that will tell you where the program installed to. It is likely that many will be returned, so if you wanna paste the return from that command, we'll see where we can go from there.

  3. I have no experience with yahoo messenger, but it is rare that an installed program puts an icon on the desktop. in fact, I'm not sure if I've ever seen that. If you are in kde or gnome, go to the "start" area of the bottom bar, and go to networking/instant messenging. do you see it there?

  4. I will soon be the proud new owner of a 12" apple powerbook. I am beyond excited. I am having trouble deciding whether or not I will keep OSX on it. so how about a simple vote to help me decide?

    The question comes down to the question of how deeply commited I am to the open source philosophy. I feel like I'm being profane not using linux on any piece of hardware, no matter how pretty the OS.
