Set up your sources at "Easy Urpmi" with the 10.1 Official sources. ( Most of the tree has been mirrored so far ). p.s. Be aware that if you run the update tool you will be upgrading to 10.1 Official. There has always been alot of posts on the board about a screwed system when upgrading --- but from my experience ( and my system was a heavily customized 10.1 CE ) it went perfect with no problems.

you will need to urpmi wireless tools then google for ndiswrapper to download the latest version and then follow the readme file

Use ndiswrapper and wireless tools --- I'm using the same card and it works great.

hmmmmmm --- my first 2 thoughts would be to make sure that plug and play was turned off in the bios and then if it is then I wonder if the CD it self is just bad ( though I doubt that ) What is the specs for your system? and have you tried text install?

You should take a clean dry towel and remove any dust on the monitor and case!!!! Step away from the butterfly Carol Ann ---- Step away from the butterfly! Sorry I couldn't resist!

hmmmm --- it's been awhile since I installed SuSE. I know there are a few different things you can do at the start of install ----- I think if you press F1 or something at the start you will get a list of options. I would start with the text install first with maybe the noapic option and the 2.6 kernel option. p.s. do you have Plug n Play turned off in your bios? by the way is it a random hang or is it hanging at the same places every time?

try using the no apci option.

Have you changed your fstab entries?

hey beck is that 650 working?

If I am not mistaken your chipset is the atheros chipset. There isn't a linux driver for that yet but you can go to madwifi -- or try using ndiswrapper( there is a post here on the board somewhere with a walkthrough )

Sorry I couldn't help, in my router I've been able to assign static ip. Not only for my main box but also for my wireless printer without using MCC. Guess I just got lucky.

thanks spinynorman i knew there was someone out there with a better brain than me!

do you have wireless tools installed?

when setting up my dlink router i used the router to give my main box a static ip -- it assigsn the static ip for my eth0 cards MAC address --- just checking to see if this was what you did

open up console and su to root then type ptal-init setup and probe for the usb printer, it will find the hp printer, then follow the directions after that is done shut down cups then restart cups (or just reboot0 then go to cups and set up the printer. p.s. i know this is going to be a stupid question -- but do you have cups installed? also if your printer is an all-in-one then goto sourceforge and download the hpijs source and build it before you ptal-init to get all the components working

plug in "easy urpmi" into google and follow the directions --- I can never remember the url , but you can setup all your online sources there

make sure you have the hp printer drivers loaded from urpmi ---- i think they are hpoj --- just su then urpmi hpoj --- oh yeah I think you might want to reistall the printer again after that -- i usually try to install through cups instead of MCC.

I installed 10.1 from the beta iso's and I agree there were a lot of missing RPM's. I attribute this to the fact that they were betas. That said --- I don't know what the included RPM's where on the community iso disks, but after putting my sources into urpmi and doing urpmi --auto-select I have had no problems whatsoever when urpmi'ing anything.

It looks like it checked for g++ and didn't find it. I recently reinstalled 10.1 ce and noticed that g++ had not been installed by default like it is in 10.0. Try urpmi'ing it to make sure it's in the system. It solved the problem for me.

Did you set up the router to give the Linux box a static ip?

update_sources not update_source

relable "main" as "update_sources" and that should let you pick the updates from MCC

You will need to set up your URPMI sources to keep CE up to date. Mandrake does not provide update_sources for a community edition. There is already an active thread about this exact title -- I just can't seem to find it. Try the search engine up top.

I've converted 4 people so far. Next week I'm gonna work the Chinese angle. I think I can bring over a few million!

I may be wrong here but i think Mandrake installs ndiswrapper by default on install which is an older version --- from my reading you can't install the new version over the old one -- they don't play nice. You have to first uninstall the older version Mandrake has put on the computer. Of course like I said I could be wrong.
