might be a hardware problem, but Im not sure... . if not with the video card, might be the memory ( if its really hardware prob) . does the bios read the correct RAM you have? . if you have a live CD then boot from it

me, I remove the desktop pager, so it behaves like that on windows, does'nt have a selection of dsktop, since I usually run thunderbird,firefox,and terminal window. .

accoding to man page . so its supposed to.. . usually a good install will not keep those packages being installed via urpmi on that directory, will only be stored if the installation has been interrupted

then you can try it via konsole as root... . #vi /etc/fstab .

I think its possible to know what applications they're running on the ssh server by viewing the process by "ps auxf" . see: the command who displays who's logggin in on the server. marjielen :0 - log on locally marjielen pts/1 - log on from remote now, by the command "ps auxf" it will display all the process that runs... below, marjielen pings the ip 20x... now, if you want to kick marjielen .. you can just kill the pid 5832 (second row) as root #kill 5832 below displays that marjielen has been using mozila-firefox I think sessions thru ssh can't be seen if you sniff its packets from a network using something like ethereal, but if you are inside the ssh server, you can see what applications they are using from remote [well, just correct me if I'd say something not correct..]

it means, it added those mentioned repositories already, the first time you issued those commands fromeasy urpmi.. . now . just try to update your urpmi repos, as root issue command in your konsole: #urpmi.update -a -v . -a - it will update all repos.. -v verbose... shows whats happening :P

sorry, have'nt tried it (with-out password) so you have to try it yourself... password are case sensitive. . I think you dont have to put a collon after administrator if you dont have one, but if it'll not work, you might also try to assign a password on that admin user.. try every possible option you have

hmmm... there's a part there that says unable to connect to samba host (which is the windows holding the printer) . below is my /etc/cups/printer.conf file try to edit yours, try to check the device URI portion . make sure that the username-in-windows really exist on windows pc, to make sure, you can try to use the administrator and its password. . then restart cups

hmmm... . try to restart cups, then print a document (testing) then check your log files... as root in konsole . #tail -f /var/log/cups/error_log . or #tail -f /var/log/cups/access_log . we might get a hint from logs

firewall, on the other thread, its the firewall on its XP that prevents printing from linux, try to check that

ok try the menu-system-configuration-configure your desktop-peripherals-printers-then click on administrator mode---enter root password . add printer class - next - smb shared printer - user Identification - then select the normal account and enter the Administrator account on windows. . next - smb printer settings, don't scan the network, enter the workgroup assigned to that windows PC, server - IP add of the windows PC, Printer - shared name of the printer on windows PC - next then select the manufacturer......(were you able to reach this part?) . try to use the Windows Admin user and password so you have full control with regards to adding the printer... . also don't forget the Administrator Mode option . I'm just not sure if the printer you have there has the linux equivalent driver on cups...

the above means that cups started sucessfully, so you may try to do your goal now, configure cups so you can print on your printer connected to your windows machine and lets see what will happen... and by the way, try to do the command below for the following services not to load when you reboot and as you can see, the 5:on means that cups will start when your desktop or X start

I've tried it on another pc that uses LE2005 and the same problem encountered, it will not auto un-mount after the defined --timeout, its using the default kernel of LE2005. I also tried my own desktop to boot on its default kernel but also will not work. . what could be the problem with this? . googling and googling and googling........

me... I overlooked everything, while I can just also do the command since I have mutt already installed. . but anyway, its cool, I just learned 3 CLI based email clients that can attach file...

just to correct, its not nfstock, its nfslock

@steve . thanks for the info, I honestly, I did'nt know of that.. so I installed nail on Mandriva, but it does not have a mailx command, instead, it still uses nail... . @paul thanks, the command works . ok, I have'nt installed nail on my Centos since when I tried to do a yum list, it did'nt find anything on "nail" that will do the same job... but on other forum, I found email, a command line email client that can attach any file similar to nail... the website.. http://email.cleancode.org/?pid=download . just have to edit a little the /etc/email/email.conf, then or with a -q to supress the sending status . anyway, its now solved. . my reason of doing this is to backup some files and email it to a certain address. . Thank you!

thanks paul... but when I follow the above commands, this is what I get... that was invoke on my Centos box... . I also tried it on Mandriva I tried to query info at mandriva MCC and the description of mailx is.. so I should have to use "/bin/mail instead of mailx, but mail does'nt have an attache option.. . any idea? . TIA

I want to put it as cron job, run the command on a particular time, attaching a certain file... . I tried mutt but I dont know how to do it on a single command then run by cron.. . any tips? :unsure: [moved from Software by spinynorman]

you need to have JRE installed so you can use azureus... you can get it here... http://java.com/en/download/linux_manual.jsp

according to cups FAQ http://www.linuxprinting.org/cups-faq.html#q_4_2 so to disable the ff:.. if you dont use nfs service.. try as root #/etc/init.d/nfs stop #/etc/init.d/portmap stop #/etc/init.d/nfslock stop then restart cups by #/etc/init.d/cups restart and try again

I'm glad you made it :P

you may try to check if there's no firewall on your XP preventing access

if you want to share folder that are not inside your directory, try to do it as root.

You only need to configure Samba if you want to share the printer and files from your linux pc, and since your goal is to have access on printer that has been shared on your windows PC, what you need to be installed and Configured in your linux PC is CUPS.. as with my previous reply, the thread I mentioned is similar to your issue... to have access on a printer connected to windows PC from Linux PC.
