so it will repartion it when I put cd 1 in And how do you earase it if you want to sell your computer

What is the command to format my c: drive and get rid of my version of linux. I messed it up and I want to restart

can anyone reccomend a good external usb modem that is easy to use on linux

Screw it, if there customer service can't think of anything, then can someone reccomend a modem they know works. That they use

Do you mean use KPPP in a special way or just a normal way because I have no problem setting up the connection, I just can't get my Modem to be recgonised It's LED Light isn't on and that means according to the manual , the drivers arn't installed.

Someone told me to run Kppp to set up my modem, how i run kppp? [moved from Everything Linux by spinynorman]

How do I do that, is there a guide, I'm pretty much a newbie

Ok so how do i now which tty/com to set it to, either of the ones you listed? By Usr external, do you mean the modem, the modem is external. Is the TTYsx assignment have anything to do with the tty/com, or how do i change that.

I have mandrake 10.1 I have a U.S. Robotics Fax Modem The LED isn't on which means th drivers arn't installed. I can't run the drivers from the cd that came with it. What can I do Also how do I know which tty/com to choose?

I have the Linuxformat that came with Suse 9.2 live, and when I run Topologlinux-setup.exe. it says it can't find it. Also how do you format Mandrake 8.1?

Does anyone know of any magazines that came out with full versions of redhat or mandrake, someone told me that i could get mandrake from a magazine(No way to download it)

Whatt if i just bought a new modem, what kind of modem can i just plug in and use?

So I can just take my modem and plug it into the USB in the computer, like normal, but have 10.1 and it will work?

So if I get a copy of a magazine that comes with MDK 10.1 it migh already have it instaklled? Any one know of a magazine that has it?

How does serial work. Or how can i find the USR for Linux

I have an external ready, but when i try to install the drivers froma cd, i get this message. Nautilus has no installed viewer capable of displaying "/mnt/cdrom/USR5633a-v173.045-XP_2000.exe What shoudl i Do I have mandrake 8.1, and can't upgrade till i get on the internet.

It says I have one, but then I started looking for the ejection looked in the slot, and noticed there wasn't one. If I buy an external modem, could I set it up and have it work?

I think it came with the laptop. So I don't need a Login I.D> or password?

I have a ethernet and modem.

I really need help, heres what i put in the connection wizard 1. Auto detection to find modem 2. 2 connections Normal Modem Connection LAN connection-ethernet cards detected 3.IP address- Unknown Host name 4.Network needs to be restarted No 1/ Serial Port- ttySO/COM1 (This is where i don't understand) Connection Name- Maybe a shortcut name or can someone compare it to something on windows Phone number-I've got this down Login ID- i assume this is the same as Username on windows? Password- I think this is the same as the password on windows Authentication PAP (not sure, thats what it was on anyway) Domain Name-Not sure what to put, can someone compare to something on windows. After I put my guesses as to what belongs inb I get this message when trying to connect kppp has detected a /root/.kde/share//apps/kppp.pid file. Another instance of kppp seems to be running under process-ID 7139 Make sure that you are not running another kppp, delet the pid file, and restart kppp Then I hit exit and it gives me Problems occured during configuration test your connection via-net_moniter or mcc. If your connection doesn't work, you might want to relaunch the configuration. Any ideas?

I thought this would be more appropriate here instead of networking. I have Mandrake 8.1 or 8.2 What should the login name looks like domain How can I find my IP address? NOTE: moved from installing to networking by scoopy... its networking ;)

Is domain the same as dialing from on windows?

I can't I don't have a floppy drive. Could someone be as kind as to post what theirs looks like, like fake stuf but like what should be there. connect to- login id- Password- My windows looks like login-_____@astra1.com password-******* domain-default

This might effect it, I am running version 8.2. I can't upgrade until i get the internet working. Would that page you gave me still work?

Hey, I just started using mandrake. I am trying to dial up. I am pretty sure i have all my info right but when i try to dial up, is says it can't find the modem. What could be the problem?
