I was talking to my friend and he was telling me that linux could lose steam in the years to come if it dosn't go 64 bit. Is he smoking crack. I was sure that linux supports 64 bit. Does the kernel? What could I tell him to clear things up.

Well I have a fresh install of 10.1 CE and I can't seem to compile anything. I have installed everything related to development. I know that GCC is on the system and stuff but I whenever I do a ./configure for some progies they say they can't find the GNU C++ compiler or what ever.
Specificly I am getting this when trying to comple SDL.

Well it looks like a hardware problem...but windows works just dang fine. Sometimes the 10 installer would freeze. I finnaly got lucky and it didn't. Now the computer might freeze anytime between booting and about 10 minutes into mandrake. Hard freeze. No response.
System specs:
2600xp
Abit NF7-S v2
2x512 HyperX PC3200
Currently installed on a WesternDigital harddrive that has worked fine in the past.
This is the Official 10 release.
9800p video card
1 burner
1 dvd rom
I have done hard drive tests and everything works fine.
I ran memtest86 and it all checks out.
Is this some known problem in 10? Random Freeze?
-
Yeah it is SATA. When will it be done? Does it work in the cooker?
-
OK well I nuked the partitions hoping mandrake would fair better. Well sort of but not really. It was able to see both hard drives. Both 75 gigers. Too bad they are setup as a stripe on the hardware level. Mandrake installed. When trying to boot from the hard drive(s) the screen fills with "99"s I guess it wasn't able to prperly write to the hds. What do I do? I need to use both windows and linux and I would very much like raid 0. Is it a lost hope? I find it hard to beleive that Linux is so big in the server world...but I can't handle a little raid 0. There must be a way.
-
Is it possible. When I tryed to install it, it didn't seem to see my hard drives correctlly, I didn't see the partitions on them, and I didn't want to nuke my XP install. Will mdk 10 even install on a raid 0? I use a silicon image 3112a pic controller card.

I have a similar problem with MDK 10ce. I installed XMMS from the cd at install. It worked for about a day and now it just freezes when I try to play any music. I can kill it just fine but I can't seem to get it to work. Any ideas?
-
Doh! Ok cool.
Always somthing I forget...being a noob and all. Thx -
Well I am trying to install the ati drivers but I need the linux 2.6 souce and it seems that the install never installed the souce for linux 2.6 and I can't find it in the install packages tool. Where is the source? Thx
-
Ok how do I get my USB M$ to use the back and forward side buttons. Like when browsing files and I go back to where I was with the back button and like in firefox I can use the buttons to also go back and fourth between pages? I sure hope linux is able to do this :D
I read somthing about add option "button" "7" into my xf86config-4 file but it didn't work. Here is my XF86Config-4 file for your viewing pleasure.:

Thx spinynorman, I knew it was somthing like that becuase I had seen the option before but I couldn't find it.
I think its a nice picute too
-
lol no no no I know all about partitions and that XP will take over the hd. As my professor said, "install dumber OS's first". and it holds true for xp and linux. I have a 10 gig partition for XP and then 50 gig for data and stuff. And then 15 odd of linux.
Well I guess my real question is how to install a new boot loader. Other than running the linux setup again I don't know of any way .
-
Ok I do a dual boot with XP pro and Mandrake. I am going to do a reformat and install of my xp partition soon and I need to know how to stop XP from overwriting my boot loader. Would the lilo boot disk restore the boot loader or somthing after I install xp?
I also had a random linux question. How do I get root privliges in the gui? I know how to from a console but I am not sure how to have them when moving files between protected directorys with the gui.
-
Ok I am a noob. Anyways I downloaded the 2.6.1 kernel source and I want to compile it for my computer. I have an amd xp processor but non of the arch's look right. The only one that I recognize is i386 but I have an athlon. I'm pretty sure I'm not running x86_64 or a sparc so help me out :D
-
Ok I want to get the 1st cd of 9.2 again. The servers on the mandrake site are awfully slow so I will go with bit torrent. Where can I get just the 1st cd?
-
Well I installed 9.2 and X server fails to start. in the installation it also has tells me that 'an error has occurded' when I hit 'test' on the video. damn that sounds like a helpful tip from a M$ programmer :lol: But seriously whats wrong? I can't find the right vmodle number for my monitor in the vendor list I have a View Sonic G90f. Selecting plug n play dosn't work either. I am running the NF7-S XP2500 with ATI 9800pro. Somthing I am missing?
-
Well I turned my overclock down and that helped. But now X server won't start. It gives me crap about not being able to find a screen. I bet there is some video driver installation I am missing here...
-
Nope. What is a cf card reader? I have 1 dvd drive and 1 cdrw drive and 1 floppy drive. No pci devices. Could it be my slight overclock? I have my xp2500 (1.87 ghz) running at xp3200 speeds (2.03ghz) I acually have it pretty relaxed right now compaired to what I usually have it at (2.5-2.6 ghz). I will try putting it at stock. Never had trouble before with 9.1 and the 9.2 RC2 or red hat linux.
-
I thought only windows could freeze? :lol: Well I just got the 9.2 install cds off of bit torrent and I reinstalled it over my 9.2 rc partition. The installation when fine but when the system starts up it freezes. When it gets to 'checking for new hardware' it just sits there with the floppy light on. it won't respond. I have the NF7-S v2 mobo with xp2500 with 512 ram, ati 9800 pro with an 80 gig WD. So whats up?
-
Is there some patch that will allow me to install the nvidia nforce drivers and the graphics drivers? I know that the kernal is different so the make file complains.
-
Well changing them to 1024x768 (my fav resoultion) did the trick. Since I am a noob could you explain why?
-

OK I just want a laptop to take to hot spot and surf the web and use open office for word processing, and mabye some telnet. I would like to run gui linux. What should I get? I'd like to keep $$ under $200. I'm up for looking around on ebay. I'm thinking P3 500mhz right now.
What brand should I go with? What brands are known to work best with linux? What specs should I look for? Like I said, nothing special just work web and open office.
