  1. I made it all the way to the last step, but am now stuck. Here are some of my failed attempts: [ace@localhost ~]$ sudo modprobe ndiswrapper bash: sudo: command not found [ace@localhost ~]$ echo "ndiswrapper" | sudo tee -a /etc/modules bash: sudo: command not found bash: echo: write error: Broken pipe [ace@localhost ~]$ kdesu modprobe ndiswrapper [ace@localhost ~]$ echo "ndiswrapper" | sudo tee -a /etc/modules bash: sudo: command not found bash: echo: write error: Broken pipe [ace@localhost ~]$ kdesu modprobe ndiswrapper [ace@localhost ~]$ echo "ndiswrapper" | kdesu tee -a /etc/modules kdesu: Unknown option '-a'. kdesu: Use --help to get a list of available command line options. [ace@localhost ~]$
  2. I have the latest Mandriva (32 bit) and I'm trying to get the wifi working on an acer 5050 laptop (atheros 5007eg card). The card is recognized, but does not function because there is a wifi switch on the front of the laptop that does not turn on. I found the following post to get this working in ubuntu: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=512828 But the sudo command does not seem to work in mandriva. What is the equivalent command, or will this work at all?
  3. Looks like quanta might do the trick; ill try it out. Any suggestions for web graphic apps? (like fireworks or photoshop?)
  4. I'm both, that's why dreamweaver is nice; you can switch between the two, and it has shortcuts for commonly used html, php, css, etc...
  5. I've read a little on other forums about web development apps (like dreamweaver) and design apps (like fireworks). Some people say use wine and the adobe products, others say to try some of the unsupported apps out there written just for linux. Are there any new solutions for linux, or should i try to wine it (never used wine; i'm a linux noob) Thanks!
  6. Thanks for the feedback. I'm new to linux in general; i've been trying (unsuccessfully) to get ubuntu installed for months, and mandriva loaded up right away, so i'm sold. I do plan on doing graphics, video and web stuff, but if the 64 bit OS isn't worth it, i might just wait.
  7. Hi all; new here so bear with me. I've just installed mandriva and was wondering how to upgrade the os to 64 bit? (i'm running an amd 64 acer laptop) Thanks!
