Have you checked this project: http://th.openoffice.org/

I had this happen one time on an older version of Mandrake Linux, it hasn't happened to me with any version of Mandriva, yet. I believe that what happens is Kget picks up the wrong file size off the server... I don't know why, nor can I prove this theory. To fix this I had to delete the ~/.kde/share/apps/kget/logs and remove everthing from the ~/.kde/share/apps/kget/transfers.kgt file except the first line [Common] This should fix Kget for you, but it will not save your 2GB d/l. I'm sorry, but I know of no way to resume and save that file for you with Kget. For the record, I use wget for anything over 500MB, because I can resume anything that gets screwed up while d/l with my connection.

If you've changed your repos (servers), it's a good idea to dourpmi.removemedia -a first. Then copy the text into the console, it will update your media_info for you. It's not necessary to update it again from the MCC or konsole.

I just tried it, and it works for me.

I haven't upgraded to 2007.1 yet, but I have tried beagle in another distro. I had the same problem with the HD churning away after my daily bootup for a week. I thought that a week was sufficient to index my drive... so I removed it.

How to use Bugzilla: http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Development/Howto/Bugzilla Please read this section: http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Development/Ho...ubmit_a_new_bug To search for bugs, or submit a report: http://qa.mandriva.com/ A quick search for 'F-SPOT' found no bugs listed with 2007.1 as of yet.

Congrats! I know you've spent a lot of time on it. Have you tried encryption yet?

I believe that depends on your wireless device? I'm left with WEP because of my Broadcom card. Depending on your device, have you read and tried this: http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-wpa/wpasupp...;rev=0&sc=0 From the wiki: http://wiki.debian.org/WPA

Not Richard Stallman's free (cool pic, I saw it), but yes, free, as in free beer! :)

I think pyscrabble is online multiplayer only? Is that what you want? There's the game xscrabble, it's fairly simple to build. You need xscrabble and xscrabble_en (or xscrabble_fr) to make it work: ftp://ftp.ac-grenoble.fr/ge/educational_games/ if you have any problems let me know.

Have you set up your repos using easy-urpmi? You need the plf-free and plf-non-free repos? It's there! Open your gui package manger and search for ati, and you should find it.

If you haven't already done so, use easy-urpmi at the top of this page, be sure to add the plf repos. Then do: urpmi dkms-ati select the fglrx driver for your card. Also check to see that you have libmesagl installed.

You can use the link at the top of this page for easy-urpmi, and be sure to add the plf repos to your system. then install: urpmi ipw2200-firmware that will have the different versions, and work with your kernel's native driver.

Yes, you have it there. But you didn't have it in another post at Debian. It appears that your doing this from another box, ssh maybe? I know it's hard but can you disable the Ethernet and try the wireless, they don't always work well together using Debian Etch.

It's not really a conflict, but more of a confusion as to where the driver looks for the firmware. This is corrected when you copy your firmware to /lib/hotplug/firmware. I'm still thinking about your problems with this using Mandriva... which leads me to believe it's not a Debian specific problem, and I've read your Debian forum posts. So with whatever driver you decide to try... do you have any other devices using your router at this time? I would suggest changing your router's channel, maybe the problem is there... I noticed you didn't have a hardware address. Check for a Hwaddr with ifconfig -a

From my Xubuntu link:

It's enough to learn Linux on, but not enough to use KDE or Gnome with Mandriva. I would suggest you try Xubuntu, and even with that you will have to use the alternate install Cd to install with a 128 MB of RAM. http://www.xubuntu.org/get#requirements You could also try Puppy Linux: http://www.puppylinux.org/ I suggest these because I have used them both on older systems.

You could try adding the kernel boot parameter: pci=routeirq to your grub or lilo bootloader.

Which install CD (ISO) did you use?

We could use just a bit more info about your system, please post the output of uname -a and lspci -v

IIRC, that is the way you found your k7 kernel? :) I have never used it (I use Gnome and Synaptic), but if I used KDE, I would try Adept apt-get install adept for a gui package manager with a search feature. I'm not being sarcastic, but... I use a 256 bit wep key with the 'native' driver. :D perhaps you could restart your wireless with the native driver and make it work, like you are doing with ndiswrapper? Just a thought. :P

If it were my lappy... I would also call them on the phone: http://us.acer.com/acereuro/page11.do?sp=p...p;crc=790373818
