BTW doesn't k3b work?

Sorry, you are right... BTW I have the same scanner (and the same problem).

No it doesn't http://www.meier-geinitz.de/sane/lists/san...s-external.html

I think there are just too many little issues that don't get resolved. Creating a Mandrake usability mailing might be a good start. What do you think?

http://www.mandrakeusers.org/viewtopic.php?t=4072 http://plf.zarb.org/~nanardon/urpmiweb.php

Try aumix. [ALT+F2] aumix [Enter]

Does he have MDK9.1? Is there a LUG (linux user group) in your area? Anyway this might be usefull: http://www.linux-laptop.net/

Mandrake 9.1 has better ACPI support.

Even if Konqueror (file manager) is crashing?

Some nice games not included in MDK9.1. Cube http://wouter.fov120.com/cube/ Contrib: liquidwar, gav, egoboo, enigma Cooker: trophy (to run it fullscreen you can use: trophy.real -f)

/usr/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/compress-zip.desktop Exec=zip -r %u.zip %u /usr/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/compress-zip-file.desktop Exec=zip %f.zip %f

Nope. I also installed freetype & msfonts from: http://ftp.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distribut.../9.1/rpms/i586/

IMHO texstar RPMS for MDK9.1 are a must have: http://ftp.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distribut.../9.1/rpms/i586/

You can see the difference here: http://linux.newexistence.org/fonts.html Add to: /etc/fonts/fonts.conf <match target="pattern"> <test qual="any" name="size" compare="more"> <double>7</double> </test> <test qual="any" name="size" compare="less"> <double>15</double> </test> <edit name="antialias" mode="assign"> <bool>false</bool> </edit> </match> <match target="pattern"> <test qual="any" name="pixelsize" compare="more"> <double>7</double> </test> <test qual="any" name="pixelsize" compare="less"> <double>17</double> </test> <edit name="antialias" mode="assign"> <bool>false</bool> </edit> </match> <match target="pattern"> <test qual="any" name="weight" compare="more"> <int>100</int> </test> <edit name="antialias" mode="assign"> <bool>true</bool> </edit> </match>

These are the settings I use in MDK 9.0: /etc/X11/XftConfig match any size > 7 any size < 15 edit antialias = false; match any pixelsize < 17 any pixelsize > 7 edit antialias = false; match any weight == bold edit antialias = true; match any slant == italic edit antialias = true;

Set artsd to stop after one second.

If you add/enable contrib source than you can install oooqs.

Why don't you write a shell script?

kfmclient openProfile webbrowsing is faster on my machine (with KDE 3.0). I use about:blank as a homepage, I have also followed Konqueror tips on this page (Konqueror reusing): KDE performance tips http://dforce.sh.cvut.cz/~seli/download/tips.html

/etc/sysconfig/desktop DISPLAYMANAGER=gdm

If you use GDM you can create a new login window. K -> settings -> startup settings -> new login with GDM

IMHO 1.5GB (3/2 of RAM) swap partition would still be big enough if you plan one day to upgrade RAM to 1GB. Why do you need 10GB swap partition?
