photoworks

I have gaim, but i cannot connect to yahoo with it.

I would like to know if there is a version of yahoo Messenger for mandrake 10.0 or if i can install from the version provided on this yahoo link : yahoo for linux (which provides Red Hat packages

i have setup files in the specific folder that you specified and when i type http://localhost/photoworks (photoworks is the name of the folder where i put my website files) it works. Now what settings do i have to change for this website to be available from the ouside. my current ip address is 82.0.59.93 so i thought that by entering http://82.0.59.93 i would be able to access my website from the outside. unfortunately it does not work. There must be something that i am missing, but i do not know what. :unsure:

is there a tutorial somewhere out there on how to setup apache on linux ? i come from windows and on it i had an application called EASYPHP which included apache, mysql and php so that i could setup this website on my localhost : fashionbug forum website i would like to migrate my local version of it on linux localhost.

It should do but it doesn't always happen. If it isn't running secure, but webmin is installed then typing http will just bring a page saying..."running secure try https" blablabla. But neither will work if webmin isn't running. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> when i get on that specific page where there is a list of items, like webadmin or useradmin, and then i click on useradmin, it tells me that useradmin is not installed or not configured and it tells me to type urpmi useradmin. When i type this command line, it tells me that the package is not found.

i tried to do what you suggested but when i type "service httpd start" i get this : Re-creating /etc/httpd/extramodules and after istalling webmin, when i type http://127.0.0.1:1000, i get this error message : "An error occurred while loading http://127.0.0.1:10000/: Could not connect to host 127.0.0.1 (port 10000)"

i have installed apache on my machine, but i have to confess taht i have no idea how to start and configure the servie. Could anyone tell me ?

where can i find the power management utility in mandrake 10.0. Do i have to download it somewhere on the web or is it included in the distribution (mandrake 10.0 Discovery edition).

i was wondering if i can install ndiskwrapper on mandrake linux 10.0 so that the system can recognize my belkin wireless pcmcia card and my bluetooth USB adapter. is there a link on mandrake website where i can find it.

i tried to configure kmail to be able to read my mails from my netscape account. i entered the correct information in the setup, but it tells me that the host entry is wrong. Now when i try to access to my netscape mail account by using the browser and going to the netscape website, after i have entered my username and password, it tells me that an error was encountered. There is nothing wrong with the netscape server since when i access to it from Windows (i have dual boot) i can get into it. any idea of what could be the issue ? photoworks : 24/08 08:16 : More info provided my network works fine since i am able to browse the web and access all my mails accounts except the one from netscape and when i go the the netscape website to the mail section and i enter my username and password, it then tells me that an error occurred and click on a link to coninue, when i click on the link, it brings me back to the screen to enter my username and password. When then i tried to configure kmail to receive read mail from my email account, it tells me that the host is wrong. all my other email account can be retrieved by kmail, so this is not a network problem. everything works except the access to netscape mail.

i have installed mandrake 10 discovery edition. is there a way on the mandrake website to upgrade it to Powerpack edition or looking for other packages that were not included in the discovery version ? I apologize for the silly question but i am really a newbie with Linux. :unsure:

thanks. one last question, how do i create an extended partition for my data so that they can be accessed either from windows xp or from mandrake.

i received yersterday the package for the discovery edition of Mandrake 10.0. so i started the installation process. i already have windows xp professional in ntfs format installed. First i partitionned my hard disk with partition magic 8.0 : i created a primary partition for swap, then a primary partition for linux. Then i was unable to create an extended partition for my common data. Well, i forgot about it and installed mandrake anyway. The installation was successful and i did not lose windows xp integrity i updated from the mandrake website for the package. Now when i try to launch openoffice.org application, the application starts to launch, then nothing happen. Does anyone have an idea why ? The other thing is that i would like to reinstall mandrake from scratch so that i can create an extended partition for my data.

:unsure: I have started to read those link and, i am afraid, i am still at a loss. Is there not an explicit tutorial on how to partition your hard drive from windows with Partition Magic, without uninstaling windows. I was thinking more like a step by step, since the link you provided are more for those who have a knowledge already. Like i said, i never did before partitionning. :unsure:

Does anyone know where is located the FAQ item wher it is explained how to partition the hardrive in order to install linux Mandrake 10.0. I actually have windows XP professionnal installed on my machine (NTFS FORMATTED). I also have Partition magic 8.0. i am at a loss at how to partition it because i have never done partitionning before.

Just wondering how do you the integrity of a mandrake 10.0 iso file? I am downloading Mandrake 10.0 at the moment from one of the mirrors and i saw that there is a small file with a folowup of numbers to check the integrity of the download but i do not know how it works, especially since i am downloading the files on windows XP. :D

I definitely want to invest in the PowerPack. :D

When i am in mandrakemove and i try to go to flashed website, i cannot display flash animations. It tells me to download the the flashplayer 7 and gives me instruction to instlall it, but i cannot install it.

i have recently downloaded the Mandrake move edition on this site : MandrakeMove When i launch Gaim and connect to Yahoo, first it has difficulty to connect, i have to try several times, and then when it is conected and i display my buddy, none appear Online and furthermore, they don't see me online. i have no problem when i connect to Aol Messenger. does anyone have an idea what is the problem ?

Tip... do like Darkelve says :D (Its in the FAQ's and will enrich your experience no end) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Do i have to conclude that the feature "Easily download RPMs from www.Mandrakeclub.com and install them with just one click" is not really what it says ? Would i still have to use command lines to install new sofwares on linux ? :unsure:

Thank you. I was really thinking to buy the powerpack anyway, the only worry i had is that i thought the installation of the distro and the installation of the additionnal programs would be hassle. :D

i would like to install mandrake 10.0 but i hesitate between the discovery edition and the powerpack edition. Apparently the powerpack edition is more for advanced user. However in the product description, it describe the following feature : Easily download RPMs from www.mandrakeclub.com and install them with just one click! Does that mean that this feature is not available in the Discovery edition, as it it not mentionned ? There are also some softwares available in the power pack, such as Blender for example which are not included in the discovery edition. Would i be able to get them once i chose the discovery edition or do i have to opt for the Powerpack. Is there a significant difference of installation process between the discovery and the powerpack, or is it the same ?

my windows is formatted in NTFS, is that a problem ? do i need to create a common partition (were i will have all my data and files) aside from the windows partition and Linux partitions, ad in which format do i have to create it ? in fact i would like to have my files to be accessible from both windows and Mandrake 10.0. :unsure:

well, i already have windows installed on my machine. Is there not a way that i can add Linux (version 10.0, instead of 9.1 as stated in the guide). i am reluctant to reformat and remove windows because i have a lot of settings (passwords and bookmarks) i would not want to lose.

I have a Dell inspiron 4150 with windows xp professionnal already installed on it and i would like to install Mandrake 10.0 on it without losing windows. How can i do that ? i must confess that i am at a loss.
