ok i did that, now how do i address my linux box from a remote computer?
-
in the details list, i does not seem to list the same things that are in my columns those are for the "Detail view" i am using the "info list view"..... oh and is there a way to save the way the view is? so that next time i navigate to that folder it is the same way (aka the info view, instead of it switching back to default?)
-
naw, it dosent matter, there is no that much for me to redo, i will just make an image of this drive now in Norton Ghost in winblows, and then i will reformat this drive and install mandrake official !!!
-
now knowing what i know, it would be wasy to just reformat my drive and start over, just to get all the kinks out but is that necessary? (i think i might do this anyway)
-
i have my CE up and running fine, no major problems, and now with the mandrake 10 isos out, i dont want to lose all of my hard work setting up my comp, is it possible to just to an "update" from the cd's or should i do anything?
-

-

i was just wondering what program i use to record a cd to my computer? i have Xmms, KsCD, Noatun, and KaudioCreator.... can i use any of these? or is there a better program that i should download?
-
Thanks everyone!!!!!! i feel so un-noobie now
-
i have not tried it your way Godflesh but i did do it my way, and i have 5 diff mirrors for each thing (main, contrib, updates, plf) then hehehe (eventhough i am using mandrake 10 CE i told easy urpmi that i am using mandrake 10 OE, so i can get all the good updates)
-
ok i made a new link on my desktop to /usr/bin/xmms and it works great wav and mp3 work fine, i am going to go see what the link was to in the startmenu ok i took a snapshot of it, on the left is the start menu link properties, on the right is my link, what is the diff? (the diff is that mine works )
-
ok this is strange i opened from the terminal, navigated to /usr/bin then i typed xmms, this started XMMS, then i open an mp3, and clicked play and everything worked great, sound, everything, Nothing crashed, so i closed that, then i clicked on the shortcut in the start menu (i dont know what you call it so i had to use the windows name) xmms opened up, i clicked to the same mp3 file and added it to the play list, and xmms crashed? this is vodoo!!!!!! i will try to create a new link on my desktop to /usr/bin/xmms
-
yes, my sound card works fine with it, my mp3s are on my other harddrive, and Noatun (another program) can play them all.. no i have not run the program from a terminal, what command do i issue ( do i navigate to /usr/bin/xmms-orwhatever the name of the xmms executable is?
-
good that will save me a lot of time!!!!
-
can i go through and get every mirror on the list? i know that it is possible, i just use the script that it provides at first FOR EXAMPLE : if it gives me this as my updates source,b/c i select that ftp mirror the first time: but then lets say that i wanted to get an additional mirror for update i would just have to change the name "updates" to something like "updates2" right? like this: can i do this in order to have a larger list of sources?
-
i dont see it in the input plugins list, hmm mabe this is the problem, where can i download the plugin?
-
thanks very much, btw i dont get it, they wont put mp3 support because why?
-
i didnt, i uninstalled those, and installed the ones you gave me, the mdk 1.2.10 on the message where you said follow these steps, i went and did exactly that and it still crashes and will not let me play mp3s, i have all the packages that you said to have [david@localhost david]$ rpm -qa | grep xmms xmms-1.2.10-1mdk xmms-diskwriter-1.2.10-1mdk xmms-smpeg-0.3.5-3mdk xmms-cdread-0.14a-4mdk libxmms1-1.2.10-1mdk [david@localhost david]$

Halting system.... md: stopping all md devices. md: md0 switched to read-only mode. Power down. this is exactly what my comp says, i just press the power button, i dont think that it crashes there, that is just the way it does it, but i rarely ever have to shut the comp off

hmmm, now all i want here is different screensavers, i dont want to change from using KDE control, also i would like to learn how to configure my desktop to look really neat, like with transparent buttons and taskbars, and other things, here is a snapshot of my desktop (look below) you see how the open windows have that white background? well i want to make that transparent, and the buttons, those too i will go look around on KDE-looks.org and see if they have any good themes
