Hello,

Just bought few days ago the wireless 11g pcmcia cardbus MSI CB54G2 which works perfectly with mandriva 2006. I had really nothing to do.

So for me i recommand that card which work very nicely and recognised by mandiva chipset ralink 2500

i have just done it through network took me ages!! but now when mdk starts up compare to 2005, 2006 is very fast!!! that's so great to use such os.

Hi everyone,

Could you please advice me of which Wifi card to buy? This is for my laptop which run with Mandriva Linux 2005. Please give the brand and name of the card

Thank you.

thx 4 ur reply

how can i have more than one network profiles? I like to have 2 differents set of settings on my machine one to connect home one to connect at work.

postfix and sendmail are probably the two most widely used email servers that i know of.  i'm sure there are others.  i would imagine that having either some kind of a dynamic dns service or a static ip would be necessary though.  i don't know.  i've never done that before.  but for local stuff, who cares?  just set it up using internal addresses.

how?

Hello,

The first i used linux was 4 years ago, i was so disapointed about linux, and though i will never ever use it again.

And, today i have changed my mind and decided to give a second chance to linux and i can tell to everyone even if i have got a lot of trouble to install all my applications and my USB modem, i am so happy about the great change of linux and it's environment, more user friendly, and i really like it, i love using command, and i just hate to use ms windows which s*** every seconds.

To new Linux newbie give it a try...

Today, I am using linux at home and for my job ;-)

So, linux has a great future and it's improved every second...

Hello everyone,

I am looking for a client email semilar to foxmail, which allow me to read email with different email pop/smtp addresses and profiles.

Please tell which software i can use.

thanks

your mysql version is 4.0.20

mysql

MySQL Support enabled

Active Persistent Links 0

Active Links 0

Client API version 4.0.20

MYSQL_MODULE_TYPE none

MYSQL_SOCKET /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock

MYSQL_INCLUDE no value

MYSQL_LIBS no value

you can install phpmyadmin from rpm too, just go type urpmi phpMyAdmin

or go to your mandrake control center, uninstall unwanted package and reboot your computer then install your wanted package and reboot your computer.

after installing phpMyAdmin it will be located on you localhost/admin/phpMyAdmin

Good luck mate

MySQL was already installed and running when I booted my linux box up (Mandrake 10.1) but it seems like nothing is configured, or something.  mysqladmin doesn't do anything, it says command is not found.  mysqld is running, I can see that, and I have the php-mysql mod installed.  What I am really trying to do is install phpMyAdmin (www.phpmyadmin.net).

 

First I installed it, read the documentation, configured that inc.php file.  First thing, PHP couldn't talk with the database, installing the php-mysql mod fixed that.  Then everything was actually working (or seemed it, I am brand new to mysql and have never even used it, so I THINK it was all working).  I went in and set the password for the 'root' user because at that point anyone could have gotten in (my webserver is public).  Then it said bad authentication, so I switched auth type in the config to http so it'd ask me, but typing the username and password does not work.  Now I have auth back to "config" where you put the username and password in the config file - and take a look at the message I get now: http://jonnyz.homelinux.com/phpMyAdmin/index.php.

 

1) I need to figure out what version of MySQL I'm running.  You can see my PHP information here: http://jonnyz.homelinux.com/phpinfo.php

2) I tried installing the mysql package from mandrake rpm installer area, and it said it couldnt even do that...

3) How could I wipe everything MySQL-related out and reinstall from scratch using an RPM?

 

Am I doing something wrong?  Please help!

 

PS: I also can't find where to set mime types for apache.  For instance go to http://jonnyz.homelinux.com/phpMyAdmin - not found.  You have to add in the index.php...

 

Thanks in advance,

~ Jonny

 

 

Note: I can't even get to mysqladmin.  That leads me to believe something is wrong other then just a bad password or an old version.

 

EDIT: I just installed WebMin (www.webmin.com) and it says it can't find the MySQL server running, and it can't find mysqladmin.  What is up with my install?  :unsure:

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

consider it's solved thanks everyone.

that's mean each time u are mounting and unmouting the cdriom

i have it on my mdk.

well when starting mdk, supermount is not supported on my mdk, maybe because i have compiled the kernel 2.6.6 vanilla on my mdk dunno.

I agree with chriz but for historical reasons I got used to uninstalling supermount and doing it manually... 

 

It just got to be a habit.. and I add the options user so I can do it as a user... 

I haven't actually tried magicdev...  I was so used to doing it by hand!

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

what i am asking, is if i insert a cdrom on any cdrom drive, i want to view the contents without doing mount command etc.

i will be glad to give a hand in french :-)
