  2. file system error [solved]

    in Hardware

    Posted

    Guys, thanks for the replys. I am going to get back on this tonight hopefully. There were

    also two options it told me to try, fsck -a and fsck -p. What are these options and should

    I use either of these? If so, would my command be 'fsck -* /dev/hda6'? Hopefully I can get this fixed without having to reinstall, thanks gain!

  3. file system error [solved]

    in Hardware

    Posted · Edited by kungfooya

    I have 2007 freshly installed, and it locked up on me while browsing online. I then held the power

    button down until my machine shut down. After I started it up I get a message saying to check my

    file system which it does, but then before it completes I get a 'FAILED' error, followed by 'run fsck

    manually'? Now, I've had unclen shutdowns in the past but never where it couldn't be fixed. What

    do I need to do to get my system back up and running again? I've never done anything like this in linux so it will be new to me. Thanks for any info!

  5. Road Runner Cable Modems [solved]

    in Hardware

    Posted · Edited by kungfooya

    edit: it was working, sort of. everytime I would restart my system, i would

    have to create a new connection to the net. Is this right? Shouldn't it be on

    all the time. Anyways, I think I hosed my system so i have to reinstall sunday

    night. I'll be back then with more questions i'm sure.

     

    Its working now, I guess. During the network setup I chose a 'cable' connection

    and it wouldn't work. This time I chose an 'adsl' conection and it seems to be working now. Is there a reason it worked with asdl vs. cable?

    ok, the service is set up, but i'm having problems in mandrake. I have a

    D-LINK DGE-530T ethernet card, and mandrake recognises it. When I go

    through the network setup stuff it says everything went fine. I then launch

    opera, but get nothing. What could I have done wrong? It's working fine

    in win2000, now I just need to get it going here. Thanks for any info!

    I am thinking of getting cable internet acces at home and was wondering if anyone

    here has it as well. Are their cable modems compatible in mandrake? I called them

    and tried getting manufacturer/model info on their modems but they had no idea

    what they were. Also, if they are compatible, how hard is it to get setup? They

    told me it should work, but they wouldn't support it. Thanks for any info.

  14. doom3 [solved]

    in Games

    Posted

    Hi all, I recently installed doom3 on my mandriva 2005 setup and can't get it running.

    When I start it up, the screen will go black like its starting, then flash back to my desktop.

    Below is what I get in the terminal window. Any ideas what the problem is? I had this game

    working perfectly on 10.0 and never had problems. Thanks for any info.

  15. Opera

    in Everything Linux

    Posted

    Lowe, i've been using opera since version 6 or so, and its been great.

    I use the ad supported version, which only shows very few generic adds.

    As for the interface being cluttered, it can be customised any way you want

    it. I recommend or install this browser for everyone I know who has browser/

    spyware/misc issues. SPEED, email, newsgroups and alot more in a +3mb

    download. I highly recommend it.

    adamw, thanks for the suggestions, i will try them this weekend. I have another question for you all after reading the responses. I have been using linux/mandrake

    since 9.2, and have learned a bunch of stuff using it. My question is, how do you guys get to know all of this stuff? Do you buy books, read online? I would like to

    get to the point where I could just say, do this and this, then this. But its hard to

    find something that says what each thing does, in terms a average guy can understand. I think i'm rambling, thanks agin for the responses.

    Posted

    I have recently installed mandriva 2005 and overall its been the easiest mandrake

    version for me to run. But I have 2 minor issues with it that maybe some of you could

    help me clear up.

     

    1) When booting up, its seems like it takes way longer than previous versions.

    I would say it takes at least 2x as long to boot as 10.0, or longer. It seems to hang

    the longest when starting portmapper. I have shutdown portmapper in the services

    area, but still it takes forever.

     

    2) When booting up up, KDE doesn't always start. Instead of going into KDE, I get

    a login prompt. As far as I know, this is random. Any ideas whats going on here?

     

    Thanks for any advice. Like I said these are minor issues, but I'd like to figure them

    out.

  25. 10.1 sound issues

    in Hardware

    Posted

    I am having issues with my sound card in 10.1. When i start kmix it is always muted, no matter

    what state i leave it in during the last session. I have kmix launching at startup. When I boot up

    and choose 'verbose mode', it says no sound card found. But when I get into kde/harddrake my sound card shows up there, and the sound works too. Why won't kmix retain its volume settings

    on reboot? And why doesn't mandrake recognise my sound card on bootup? Also, when i start

    doom3 there is no sound, but my mp3 players work fine so something is up. I searched around

    and I am stumped. Thanks for any advice.
