    Savage2000

    I'd honestly be very suprised if there are any 3d drivers out there for it, I used to have one as well, and found the windowz drivers lacking. Capn
  2. I find they are about equal in ability and function. You can adjust speed of down and upload easily and can configure about anything you want in either. The biggest difference I see is Bittornado uses individual screens for each torrent, much like a download window where Azureus opens one interface with torrents listed either in the uploading or downloading window and will shrink to the system tray. Personally I prefer Azureus for it's single interface design and it's ability to run from the system tray. Capn
  3. It's only wrong if it doesnt' work..... Capn
  4. I've run into similar issues with Firebird, simple solution was to un-install it, delete the /home/you/.thunderbird file and than install it again. Dumb, I know, but it has worked in getting some things working..... Capn
  5. Well that sucks, I hadn't subscribed yet, but I sure had planned to. Hopefully they will try again in a short time. Capn
  6. While I have not used it, I understand that Kget works quite well for this also. I would think that bittorent would be quite workable as well.... Capn
  7. I think the thing that strikes me as being one of the things I love most about Linux is mentioned by Banjo when he says that he contacted the quantas developer directly for help and received it. How often does that happen on the windoz side of the fence?? I had an error in burning something using K3b the other day, the error message stated to e-mail me (the developer) the above error report. You gotta love that kind of community and group dynamics..... Capn
  8. Agreed, Smoothwall rocks! I've been using it for well over a year now with no problems of any kind! Capn
  9. PCLInuxOS for me, which is what I am using already, while I like MDK a lot, I really appreciate the personal attention one gets with this distro as well as it is very cutting edge, packages are usually in unstable within a day of release. Very Cool! I have tried and was also very pleased with Ubuntu, although I missed the system configuration simplicity of PCLOS and MDK. Capn

    ATI 9200

    My bad, Sorry for the mis-information.....

    ATI 9200

    While I am not sure about the cause of your specific error, the 9200 is not "supported" by the current ATI drivers. Capn
  12. x.org plays a bit differently, in my config it is "Keyboard" and did not work when not capitalized, you can find more about it Here. Good Luck Capn
  13. There should not be any problem running any standard 32 bit OS on the athlon 64, that after all is the cool part about it, it goes both ways... Capn
  14. Got 2.8 up and running, nothing too special, looks like a lot of bug fixes and basic updates to me. Still looks like Gnome and acts like Gnome which is cool by me!! Capn
  15. Been using grip, it's served my needs thus far.... Capn
  16. You hit on a great debate in todays world of cheap memory, as ram gets cheaper the apparent need for swap seems to decrease, (I can't remember the last time my computer showed the swap being used). However, I would not want to get caught without just yet, I have a gig's worth of ram, and keep a 750MB swap, I don't really miss the space. I guess the simple answer is if you ever do max out your ram, the swap will save your butt and keep things running Capn
  17. Looks fine to me, about the only limitation with a 180 watt ps would be adding on, it's not going to be able to run a Nvidia 6800 any time soon, but than it sounds like that is not the goal. Like bvc said, if there is a place for another fan, it would be a good idea! Looks to me like a great deal.... Capn
  18. Not on MDK10, but I had 9.2 running on a K6/2 500 with no problems, other than being a bit pokey.... Capn
  19. I was able to get and install with no problems using the update mode. I haven't seen any great improvement, but I like that Nvidia is trying.... Capn

    anti-virus

    If you are concerned enough to want an anti-virus program, F-prot makes one that runs via CLI that looks to be fairly easy to work.... Capn
  21. Using PCLOS here, but it is quite similar to MDK, go into the master control panel, under system, services, there should be a numlock with a box to select or unselect at startup. Capn
  22. Which Kernel are you using, I've encountered and read about some problems such as you are experiencing with the 2.6 kernels, in particular with secure sites.... Capn
  23. I should expect that you have the correct java, and clearly it is linked correctly since you said it does work. If I understood, it works if you re-link it up and will continue to work until you log out. Do you have the user agent plug in installed? And if yes, do you set it to show your browser as being Internet Exploiter? I seem to remember that it does not like to start up when it is in Internet Exploiter mode... Capn
  24. I can tell you without a doubt that the problem is in the Java plugin, as to fixing it, if I recall correctly the problem is the wrong version of Java is installed; but it's been a while since I went through this. Do check out Mozilla's faq's and help sites, I believe that is where I found the fix. Capn
