Hi Everyone, Just looking for a bit of advice really – what are the best packages/applications around for linux for drawing web graphics etc. I guess I am looking for a package like Macromedia's fireworks, is there anything similar around for Linux? Cheers Dave

oh I see - ok I will give it ago Thanks chaps!

I am already using Mandrake 10, will an upgrade lose my photos and documents? I still reckon all this has occured after I updated some componets using the updater tool shipped with mandrake Thanks for all you help, you have been very kind.

Hi I tried that using konsole but it is not listed in /usr/bin , I am logged in as root. Thank you for your contiuned help !

Hi Arctic, I receive a bash: drakconf: command not found I remember I have recently ran some of the Mandrake updates, could this be related to the MCC going walkabout?

when I try /usr/sbin/drakconf as root, I still get an bash: /usr/sbin/drakconf: No such file or directory message.

I receive a bash : /usr/bin/menudrake: No such file or directory message Have I somehow uninstalled some of my Mandrake system components?

When I try that I receive the following... bash : menudrake: command not found

I press ALt F2 and entered "menudrake". I then clicked "options" - I selected to run as root and entered my password. WhenI hit the "RUN" button, thats when nothing seem to happen. Cheers

Hi Kiwi, When I tired that nothing happens - have I screwed something up somewhere? Cheers

Hi Arctic, Thank you for the reply. I am a Linux newbie, I am using Mandrake 10. I did not notice it was even missing until I tried to execute rpmdrake to install some new software. I am not even sure I know how to check if it is accessable via konsle - could you please tell me how I check? Thank you for your kind help

Some how I seemed to have lost the “Mandrake Control Center” menu option for all users on my machine? Any ideas how this went missing, any how I can get it back? Cheers!

Brilliant! – I will try you suggestions Chris. Thank you very much for your kind help. - Dave

I am a complete Linux noob ( I have had it installed for about 1 week now), after reading about 20 different forums I have managed to get my Linksys WMP54G wireless PCI card working using ndiswrapper with my Mandrake 10 distro. I would now like to get the drivers to load on boot, could someone please tell me which file I need to place the driverloader command so that it is executed on boot. Cheers in advance Dave
