don't know or it will help, but try the speed up firefox tricks in the respective forum. I think iit's too slow, I'll look in the about:config, for time out times, I'll post f I have found something
-
windows ME is the worst OS ever, it crashes random, it does nothing what you want too, So I assure you, you will be happy with mandrake :)
-
now, I don't even know how to start, just hope there will be once a driver for it :)
-
damn, it looks hard :( :P not that I expected it was easy, but I still have to learn the languages & stuff, so it's a 10 year project :P :)
-
Maybe a very general question, but how do you actually write drivers for hardware??? Example, I wanna make a driver for my USB scanner, where do I have to start? it's very general, and maybe difficult to answer question, but I'd liked to know :)
-
nautilus? but I don't like it :) Konqueror is pretty good :)
-
no, I want a game that's original, yes you say it has a story, like the good old days, but like doom you have a dozen of games in the genre, I expected the game would scare me, and I would maybe like it that way, but it's all so predictable. But I guess there aren't gonna be very original games in the future, hl², will also be shooter, only game I'm waiting for is s.t.a.l.k.e.r :)
-
for what its worth, doom³ is a stupid game, after 30 minutes of playing, I wasn't scared, it just felt like another shooter, like Far cry or something, it really disappointed my, I hope that hl² will be better
-
only thing I get is : IOATA controller device is blocking bus ...

hmm, maybe this is a solution: don't know anything better, but I think you have format your HD, not the partition, so reinstall windows again, after installation, put in the externel HD, and install mandrake on the second drive!!!. If you have only formatted the partition, put in the external drive, make backup's of your windows installation, format the first HD, install windows XP, put back your backup's, and then install mandrake on the 2nd drive

hi, welcome aboard :) , Why do you want to run KDe from icewm? But If you can't choose anything then Icewm, you probarly haven't installed it correctly, so I also advise to reinstall mandrake and make sure you install KDe or Gnome

its a computer, it won't blow up, or never boot again with just formatting, so try!

of course we can :), first you go to www.nvidia.com, there you go to section Download drivers, and there you see Linux & Freebsd drivers, there you can download the drivers for your architecture, I suppose you pick the first one Linux Display Driver IA32 1.0-6111, or you can download them here: Nvidea IA32 After downloading, you go to terminal, as root, and you type init 3(make sure everything important is saved). this will shutdown the x server, and will give you a console, you log in as root again, navigate to your download folder, and type: sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-6111-pkg1.run this will start the installation, just follow instructions, if everything went well, you can launch your x server with "startx" :)
-
well I'm gonna give it a try too :) :P
-
hmm, which steps did you bypassed? well, tools, try diskdrake, run as root ;)
-
so you can ping with your linux to windows? but not vice versa? maybe you need to configure samba?(don't know much about networking, still learning alot :P )
-
so the eth0 works, but you're sure you can't ping anything in your LAN? and the internet gateway computer works? and don't know for sure, but does he needs samba, to have a linux computer to communicate with windows?
-
and about the package missing, sure the cd's were burned ok? what message do you get if you do "ifconfig eth0"
-
well I advise to use, filezilla, and I don't think you can download a directory :), but I think for now the important thing is to download the three iso's and welcome aboard ;)
-
Well I was bored(gentoo is installing ;) ). So I was wondering if there was already a semi-Auto installation script for Gentoo, so I started to make one, as it is my first script, and probarly far from finished, there wil be some bugs in it :) . Just wondering what you all think of it
-
well, why don't we start with you giving us the details of the modem :) and(love to say it ;) ) Welcome aboard
-
