Sorry no Linux drivers for that card. :( ( something like this always happens when you start out in Linux: people have bought hardware in the past without checking Linux compatibility. Nothing to be done about (except trade it in for another card :) ))

That means superkaramb is already installed. Start it from the startmenu or from a run window (alt-F2) and type superkaramba.

Mandriva installs software with urpmi. To install superkaramba, open a console, log in as root and type: urpmi superkaramba. PS. check the wiki link in my sig.

Open the MCC, system, services and start HAL

I only do netwotkinstalls. With boadband everywhere it´s silly to download iso. Anyway it takes more time to burn he isos then to install mandriva :). What you need is the boot.iso. Download it from a mandriva mirror, burn it, put in the cdrom drive and reboot, choose netwok install, choose http (so you don´t need to configure network settings), dhcp and select a mirror. (check the path. If i says .../official/... change it to .../2006.0/... or else you will intall mandriva le 2005) Good luck.

Is it really a login prompt or just a prompt? If it´s just a prompt type: init 3 and hit enter. After that log in.

Open the Mandriva Control center, system, services :)

I think it's trying to connect through a different port. If I remember correctly azureus default is to select a random port. Look in the azureus settings to disable this setting. http://azureus.aelitis.com/wiki/index.php/..._is_blacklisted

You live in the past :) Try uname -r

You´re mixing 2 different things: alsa and oss. You can only use one of those. If you want to use oss you can´t use an alsa driver. You can´t uninstall oss since it´s a part of the linux kernel. What you have to do is open the MCC, hardware, hardware selct the souncard, click configure and load the appropiate oss driver for your card. That should be it

Accordtin to this link there are native linux drivers for your card: http://linux-wless.passys.nl/query_alles.php?SHOWALL= Why not use those?

Sounds like a problem with your mobo. Look and play around with your BIOS settings. Or use an npt server (rightclick on the clock, adjust time and date and select an npt server).

Add joydev to /etc/modprobe.preload. That should do it.

:)

If you can open alsamixer there is really no need to run alsaconf (other than it to restore the default settings). All you have to to is readjust the mixer settings in alsamixer. Just play around some.

Yeah it's a bit of a grey area, :)

You must run alsaconf as root :). Anyway that won't help you here since sound works just fine. What you need to do is adjust the mixer settings. Open a console and type: alsamixer (as normal user) and play with the settings (for example change mic1 to mic2 or change the input source). Good luck.

Looks like the joydev module isn't loaded. open a console, login as root and type: modprobe joydev

Check /dev/input for a js device (and check /dev/js too). If there is one (if not post the output of lsmod here)test it with: cat /dev/input/js(x) (where x is the number of the device) and move the joystick. If you get an permissions error do as root: chmod 666 /dev/input/js(x). If cat works go to the configuration part of flightgear and make sure the joystick points to /dev/input/js(x). Good luck.

It's probably a permission problem. Open a console and login as root. Change directories to /dev/input and type: cat event0 and move the stylus over the drawingboard. If you get output that's the event Wacom uses. If not try event1, event2 etcetc. If you found the event type: chmod 666 input(the number you found). Log out as root again and it should work. Good luck.

Open a console and type: alsamixer. Unmute every channel.

Try: loadkeys dvorak :) http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-HOWTO/Keybo...OWTO.html#ss8.6

Please post the errors. This doesn't mean much. :)

Why 4 or 5 wikis? This will not be a very big wiki. Just a copy/paste of the FAQs on this board. (though it takes a lot more time tthen I expected to wikify the FAQs :) ) The license: The wikipedia and foldoc stuff is gpl. The other stuff is from this board so falls under the licende mub uses. Link page: good idea. Added an 'index' link in the sidebar. :)
