sounds like I only installed the first cd.. LOL will look when I Get home. if i can find the disks again ;-)

I have hunted high and low..and there simply is no web browser....i'm lost....

i have the same problem....isn/t there an easier way ?? If I hook up to the router via vired....is it possible that mandrake with install UPGRADES for my wireless card?

I installed mandrake a few months ago. couldn't get the touchpad to work..and since I've now solved that problem..(VERY EASY)....i WANT to give mandrake another go.. I can't find the browser....??????????? I have to log out of windows to find it... also, can I install windows programs on here?

I have the same internal wireless card but can't find the drivers for it for linux? Where can I find please?

on my laptop I have NO MOUSE...I don't use a serial mouse or anything mouse that is attached..I use the built in one that comes with the laptop..the one where you just move your finger over it...its square..I have a tosiba a70...what can I do to get that to work please...??? thanks brenda--PROBLEM FOUND IN THIS POST..THANKS..

After reading some of the posts, I'm begining to think this mouse thing will be really hard to fix so I'll have to plug in a usb mouse..but in the mean time, I have a tosiba a70 and the mouse pad doesn't work....at all.I've tried every one available... thanks

HELP, GOOD GRIEF wish you had posted how you got the laptop mouse to work..Mine is a p4 toshiba the touch pad mouse? how do I get it work work please/?? Im so excited I got linux up and I can't do anything without a mouse

ok 2 years later and a new laptop..and patience, I finally got linux loaded... interesting though how I had to do it.....I'll post later.. but I couldn't get my mouse to work..the one that comes with the laptop...I'll try and find out how to get it work here..but thought if someone was up??? thanks..brendaaaaa YIPPIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE EEEEEEEE

thanks for the suggestions and support. Funny, when I left the house today I had that link open cause I didn't want to loose it..I will be following all of that IF I can't get linux to work...going to try it yet again..thanks..

well, I have to go to work shortly..so no more time to play...but I started over AGAIN...I thought I better put xp on ..and than do the install again tonight for linux....so far it's been almost a week since I started trying to get linux on. Now I'm here for help.. ;-) I could not log in because i don't recall needing a password..so I figured I did it wrong...again..so starting over? I'll just try again..unfortunately, by the time I need help everyone else is in bed because of my time zone and I loose patience and try and fix it myself..LOL not sure if this is good or bad.....is there a place where someone has written down really good newbie instructions...something that says..do this and do that and just follow the directions for installing v10..new laptop....toshiba..THANKS..

hello-after much a-do, Ifinallly get a log in screen: enter login: enter password: session type: kde, icewmk, default, failsafe, reboot, halt, login, I've tried just loggin in with my name..do I have to start over...did I mess up?

FIXED IT... guess what---i used the software that came with toshiba to burn my disks..BAD MISTAKE.. so after reading more posts on here, I dnloaded another program and used it..and it works..now I have another problem which I best post under installation.. THANKS FOR REPLYING TO THIS POST... it at least gave me someeee ideas...
