  1. i have now figured out by running: e2fsck -p /dev/hda5 e2fsck -p /dev/hda7 e2fsck -p /dev/hda3 at the command line that all of my mandy 10 partitions(the ones i tested above) are ok the one where i have problems is e2fsck -p /dev/hda1 e2fsck -p /dev/hda2 which are my FC3 partitions that i just installed.... when i run those commands i get the problems and it tells me to get a newer version of e2fsck i am going to try to run an interactive startup and try to bypass
  2. Mandy 10 oe i get this error at start up: checking file system /hda7 is ok then this: e2fsck: Get a newer version of e2fsk! fsck.ext3 do you want to check file system (Y,N) you may lose some info **I put Y then it says droping into shell to repair file system or press control-d for normal startup ctrl-d restarts the computer when i press y to go into shell, then it is like a bash prompt, i dont know what command i am supposed to do, i am kinda lost... but now all of my other distros are now not working also....
  3. I have downloaded the FC3 isos from their website 5 full times now (all 4 cds) and none of the md5sums checkout.... what is the problem, i am downloading them to a FAT32 partition and then downloading boot.iso and installing from the FAT32 drive... everytime it gives me some error during install and tells me that the computer has to be restarted. I am geting sick of it. I have also tried putting them on the cd and i get the same errors, when it does the media check, it tells me that there are problems with the file. I might be getting errors because i am using a browser to download them from the http site, i am willing to try anything, i know i did something before that also didnt work, it was from the command line, i think it was like "wget" or something like that.... i dont remember exactly, PLEASE HELP!!!!!
  4. hmm not sure i understand what to do, i will have to talk to you on irc some time...
  5. could some one post a full yum.conf file for me? oh btw FC3 is Da' bomB!!!!
  6. im having problems with that kernel too, but mine are with the nvidia driver... however i was having problems like that where random programs were crashing...
  7. i had the same problem with kernel 2.6.9 just recently, i fixed it by saving my .config file, then erasing all traces of the kernel then recompileing it using the .config settings file

    DVD player

    i suggest after you get libdvdcss, that you get the dvd player xine... it is quite possibly the best dvd player ever created...
  9. you did not like "Redhat Linux 9 Bible" i think that it is a great book, it goes thought the basics, and it deals with complicated issues also, but the best manual to linux is this board, this is were I learned all of what i know!!!!

    problem root?

    [root@localhost firefox-installer]# cd home chdir: could not get current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: No such file or directory bash: cd: home: No such file or directory [root@localhost firefox-installer]# cd /home chdir: could not get current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: No such file or directory [root@localhost home]# what does this mean?
  13. oh that looks like the ksysguard that is messed up
  14. when ever i try to launch firefox the program opens on desktop 1 instead of the desktop that i am on. for example, if i am on desktop 6 and click on the firefox icon, the program launches on desktop 1 instead of 6 is this a bug? is there a way to fix it?
  15. ya do not use the mdk ctrl center at all, it messes up the file that i think i told you to make, /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts ifcfg-wlan0
  16. ok well that was already in there,but there was also a line that said GATEWAYDEV=eth0 so i added another line that said GATEWAYDEV=wlan0 and it works :D
  17. maybe try CTRL ALT DEL and try closing all unnecissary programs, then try installing....
