when i try to start tuxracer or frozen bubble in fullscreen the screen goes black and stays so until i close the app.. when i start those games windowed, everythings ok.

i'm using a geforce4 ti 4200 with the newest nvidia drivers, so is there a way to make them work fullscreen?

how can i set the color depth in mdk 9.2 to 32 bit or is that not possible?

in md 9.2 i don't find a way to activate 3d acceleration on that card. is it on by default? i'm using the newest nvidia drivers.

how can i figure out, if my soundblaster audigy is compatible to ALSA or is there a way to set it up somehow?

when i use multimedia apps, ALSA doesn't work.

with "sluggish" i mean that the fonts in kde are nowhere near as sharp and crisp like those of windows.

and yes, with globally change i mean that all (or as many as possible) use those windows fonts...

after changing to a 19" tft-display i notice how sluggish the linux fonts are compared to fonts in windows.

is there a way to change the fonts in linux globally to the fonts that windows uses?

i use mozilla 1.5 and however i configure the sidebar (want it to show bookmarks and history) i doesn't change...

is there a way to alternativly do it?

how do i change the permissions on folders and what rights should i give?

i use moz 1.5 and mozplugger (newest version) when i try to download a .rpm mozilla thinks it is some real-media-file and starts to open the .rpm in a new window...

how can i change that?

well, funny - i don't have that option in 3.15 (german version)...

but could you tell me how to get the date under the time?

i always get "permission denied"

athlon XP 1800+

geForce4 4200 TI (64 megs)

xdsl 1280 kb/s

i don't think hardware is the problem...

yes, but when i change the fonts it only affects websites and not the text under the icons...

am i too dumb or is it just to late???

can you post a screenshot of the window?

@ neutro: yes and no. it works (except for stuttering after half the movie is loaded) for embedded quicktime movies - the mplayer plugin starts. but i can't assign mplayer to realplayer files on amazon.com for example...

maybe you still have a little patience with a newbie and help me again... :unsure:

i just can't figure out, how to start eclipse project in mandrake... i unzip the directory and then?

i use mplayer with codecs and plugin for mozilla to watch movies on quicktime.com. however, when around half the movie is played, mplayer starts to stutter.

my guess is, that it didn't cache enough in advance, to play the movie properly. but whenever i try to change the cache size of it, it resets back to 8192...

i include a picture to show how mplayer looks when playing quicktime movies. it always shows the osd (with wrong data), even when i deactivated it in preferences and after some time the clip starts to stutter (around 1:20 when large). when i start mplayer from k-menu again it show only the small bar that i saw before under the quicktime-clip...

i'm using mplayer-1.0-0.pre3.11plf, mplayerplugin-0.80-1mdk and win32-codecs-1.4-2plf

@ neutro: seems you know the trick how to associate file types with mplayer... in my posting http://www.mandrakeusers.org/index.php?showtopic=11591

i asked how to do this for several browsers...

maybe you could tell me how?

can somebody explain to me, how i have to setup the plugins, players, browers and file associations for several browers like konqueror, firefox, opera, mozilla... if thats possible?

i mean, i have installed mplayer, xine, realplayer and plugins and codecs for them, but only some files on websites work: i can watch quicktime movies on quicktime com with mplayerplugin, although the video starts to stutter after half the movie is played, but i can't listen to soundclips on amazon for example...

thankful for any suggestions and tips...

the only font settings i find there are for websites...

i've managed to change nearly all fonts i wanted within mandrake (kde). but i don't find a way to change the font size for the text under the icons in konqueror... any ideas?

and how do you do that? i found nothing to do so...

since i'm completely new to mandrake / linux i'd be grateful, if you'd tell me what to do then...

i'm completely new to linux - thought something new wouldn't hurt for studying... but with all new things it takes some time to get used to it...

do you think any further modifications would make firefox work also?

see my post in:

@neutro & anon: i wasn't complaining about the fonts in firefox - it has beatiful fonts - but about the fonts in mozilla (non-rpm)...

how can i see with how many dpi my mandrake 9.2 is running and how could i change it? when i use mozilla 1.5 and leave the fonts on system settings, some sites look corrupted, meaning a little to large or broad. when i change the dpi setting to 96 everything looks fine. so i guess my system setting is 75 dpi.

is it useful to change the rest of linux to 96 or above dpi?
