  1. Hi, I was wondering if anyone could help me with this. Im on mandrake 9.2 w/kde. could someone explain this to me?
  2. Yes Im sorry, I installed it from a tarball, I ran make then make install. The instructions say to add it too modules.conf.. But it didnt say how exactly i do that.. Anyway, when i just started my machine up now it said loading midi... and said something about this was compiled using gcc 2 and its being comiled using gcc3 this is known not to work. qoute. what does that mean? i compiled the drivers on gcc3...
  3. Ok, I installed the alas drivers for my Aureal AU8810 soundcard, everything compiled correctly, but i have no idea what to add to modules.conf. i read the docs for it and it didnt seem to say anywhere. thanks, richard
  4. hey, brit yeah i've been having the exact same problem as you are. basically, like you, i'm just learning mandrake and i haven't had many problems up until it comes to installing the sound card drivers. Im getting the same error message, "No aureal soundcard detected!" The troubleshooting file is retarded, because My aureal soundcard works in windows and functions fine. someone help us!

  6. [root@x1-6-00-04-5a-51-1d-7d usr]# cd src [root@x1-6-00-04-5a-51-1d-7d src]# ls RPM/ [root@x1-6-00-04-5a-51-1d-7d src]# no kernel dir.... i did find the other directorys, but they were already empty :/
  7. While I was compiling the kernel, i lost power for a few seconds (it seems to be getting more common in my particular area) and now im down 550MB with no idea where those files went... how can i get that space back so i can start compiling again?? i dont think that its in the folder i originally had the kernel in (i.e the one the tar file extracted too)
  8. just a quick comment, the first time i installed mandrake i made a partition for it and as far as booting went, lilo worked fine (except it wouldn't give me an option until i got into linux.) i finally ditched the linux's bootloaders and used paragon boot manager.
  9. Ok, Basically I messed up my last install of mandrake pretty badly to the point where i wasn't willing to download all those packages by hand. What I intend to do is to install it from the HDD, but i have a question. When it asks me where the install iso is, if i select more than a couple packages, it says it cant find them.. how do i tell it where cd2 and cd3 are? note-im installing mandrake 9.2 i686
  10. it worked.... can i add the rest normally or what?
  11.

  12. AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGHHhhhhhhhh urpmi is badly messed up. to fix it, i rebuilt the database, that didnt work.. deleted my sources. went to add them again and it says this for contrib, main and every other one. retrieve of source hdlist (or synthesis) failed no hdlist file found for medium "main" examining synthesis file [/var/lib/urpmi/synthesis.hdlist.main.cz] problem reading synthesis file of medium "main" unable to update medium "main" etc i used the easy urpmi thing.
  13. oh, and one more thing. I have an Aureal Sound card (it blows, but it still serves my purposes) that i can't get the drivers to install. when i go to make install -10 it says no soundcard found.. i read that set of drivers help file and basically it didnt help me. my soundcard still works in windows, but i'd rather not keep rebooting into win when i want to hear a song or video thanks! p.s if it helps, when i looked up the soundcard it didnt show it having any module. not sure what that means..
  14. Hey, I installed proftpd and openssh, but i can't figure out to configure them. I saw a screenshot of my friends mandrake and theres a Server management thing in his control center.. There isnt one in mine. Anyway, the servers are running but i want to config them...
  15. Ok, now this is pissing me off :/ I started downloading QT3-common with urpmi, then one of its depedent packages stopped downloading at 95%, so i was like ok and iclosed that terminal. Now when i try to install qt i get the following: To satisfy dependencies, the following packages are going to be installed (14 MB): libqt3-3.1.2-14.1.92mdk.i586 qt3-common-3.1.2-14.1.92mdk.i586 Is this OK?

  16. Ok went to re-compile UnrealIRCd after it segfaulted :/ it went well for the first half of it, then: /home/user/Unreal3.1.1/src/res.c:113: undefined reference to `res_init' res.o(.text+0x47):/home/user/Unreal3.1.1/src/res.c:114: undefined reference to `_res' res.o(.text+0x50):/home/user/Unreal3.1.1/src/res.c:116: undefined reference to `_res' res.o(.text+0x66):/home/user/Unreal3.1.1/src/res.c:117: undefined reference to `_res' res.o(.text+0x438): In function `send_res_msg': /home/user/Unreal3.1.1/src/res.c:362: undefined reference to `_res' res.o(.text+0x440):/home/user/Unreal3.1.1/src/res.c:362: undefined reference to `_res' res.o(.text+0x446):/home/user/Unreal3.1.1/src/res.c:363: more undefined references to `_res' follow s_bsd.o(.text+0x27): In function `add_local_domain': /home/user/Unreal3.1.1/src/s_bsd.c:158: undefined reference to `res_init' s_bsd.o(.text+0x2d):/home/user/Unreal3.1.1/src/s_bsd.c:160: undefined reference to `_res' s_bsd.o(.text+0x4e):/home/user/Unreal3.1.1/src/s_bsd.c:163: undefined reference to `_res' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[1]: *** [ircd] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/user/Unreal3.1.1/src' make: *** [build] Error 2 I installed both of what you guys suggested and kirc still refuses to compile. kirc says: checking for strings.h... yes checking for sys/stat.h... yes checking for sys/select.h... yes checking for socket in -lsocket... no checking for X... libraries /usr/X11R6/lib, headers /usr/X11R6/include checking for QT-1.3x... configure: error: QT-1.30 (headers and libraries) not found.

  17. Ok, UnrealIRCd compiles, but what the hell does this mean. me and kIRC.. checking for gcc... gcc checking whether the C compiler (gcc -O2 -Wall -s) works... yes checking whether the C compiler (gcc -O2 -Wall -s) is a cross-compiler... no checking whether we are using GNU C... yes checking whether gcc accepts -g... yes checking how to run the C preprocessor... gcc -E checking for c++... no checking for xlC... no checking for DCC... no checking for c++... no checking for g++... no checking for gcc... gcc checking whether the C++ compiler (gcc -O2 -Wall -s) works... no configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C++ compiler cannot create executables. ok i think that there are a few compiler problems which probably will remain unsolved even after i clear this one up, what other things could be messed up?
  18. Ok, I went to compile UnrealIRCd and it failed.. So I went and downloaded GCC, went to install it, and heres what I got when I executed ./configure [root@CustomMachine02451 gcc-3.3.2]# ./configure Configuring for a i686-pc-linux-gnuoldld host. Created "Makefile" in /home/user/gcc-3.3.2 using "mt-frag" ./configure: line 8: cc: command not found *** The command 'cc -o conftest -g conftest.c' failed. *** You must set the environment variable CC to a working compiler. [root@CustomMachine02451 gcc-3.3.2]# Im the same guy that did Bad Installtion of mandrake, that problem went away with urpmi, but I'm still missing a compiler. Not sure if this makes a difference, but I downloaded it while i was running a normal user account, and i tried installing under root. Thanks! Richard
  19. Basically, I installed mandrake from the HDD. And I've got it working some what (I'm on it now.) But, when i was installing there were a few files that were missing or unreadable (mind you i downloaded all three Rpm's.) Whenever I go to install something it gives me different errors. Heres one I get when i go to install AIM: Some package requested cannot be installed: aim-1.5.234-1.i386 (due to unsatisfied libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2) do you agree ? Tried to install GCC, and it said I needed a proper CC compiler Anyhelp would be appreaciate email if needed-r.markee79@comcast.net
