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

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....

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!!!!!

hmm not sure i understand what to do, i will have to talk to you on irc some time...

could some one post a full yum.conf file for me?

oh btw FC3 is Da' bomB!!!!

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...

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

i suggest after you get libdvdcss, that you get the dvd player xine... it is quite possibly the best dvd player ever created...

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!!!!

here is a great free wallpaper website

it does not happen anymore

[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?

oh that looks like the ksysguard that is messed up

kde 3.2-79 i think....

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?

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

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

ok i will try that

what do you mean?

maybe try CTRL ALT DEL and try closing all unnecissary programs, then try installing....

found it

it s

xscreensaver-command -lock

then i just used khot keys to set it to f12...

they're already there...

but yes it is on that list

i dont know if i can configure scanning from there,

is there a scanning program for linux, like paperport?

hmm seems that Hp has rid it self of those links, all the links in the first web site are bad :(

maybe i will
