  1. I'm a samba newbie and having trouoble with my file sharing. I use the swat interface to configure the smb file because I find that it more user freindly than the notes in the file. Anyway, I have 1 pc running mandrake 10.1 with samba. and a windows laptop. each pc is assigned to their own workgroup/ domain only because the laptop is used for my work and it's setup on the work domain. The workgroup the linux box is on is "MDKGROUP" and the laptop is on "FAIRPOINT" domain. Here are my questions: 1. My linux box is running with windows xp. I would like to share a directory "/multimedia" that is on an ntfs drive with the windows laptop. 2. I can see the MDKGROUP workgroup on the windows laptop but cannot access it. here is my smb.conf: [global] workgroup = MDKGROUP server string = Samba Server %v encrypt passwords = Yes log file = /var/log/samba2/log.%m max log size = 50 socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 printcap name = cups dns proxy = No printer admin = @adm hosts allow = 192.168.1.102 (this is the laptop IP) printing = cups [/multimedia] comment = Media (M) path = /multimedia hosts allow = I have more stuff in the config file, but I figured this is all the the stuff that's relavent to my prob.
  2. gdesklets 0.33 installs but I get the error. is there anything similar and as efficient as gdesklets?
  3. I believe it was the latest one. I got it with urpmi . I updated the reposiiitory before I downloaded gdesklet.
  4. I think there is a bug in program. I tried re-installing gdesklets and I keep getting that error in the log when I try to run it. it says that some of the .rpm's have bad signatures
  5. cthaaa site is pretty tight, but after I install gdesktops I get an error. this is what the log says: ISensor: ITime: .3/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk/__init__.py:90: GtkDeprecationWarning: gtk.mainloop is deprecated, use gtk.main instead self.warn(message, DeprecationWarning) do you know what this means?
  6. here's a link to the sidebar I'm talking about" http://amarok.kde.org/index.php?option=com...&imgid=40&hit=1
  7. I was checking out some screenshots online and I noticed that there is way to get all the pc usage stats on a sidebar on the desktop. Is there way to get that sidebar in kde?
  8. oh, ok. I wasn't aware that they are the same. I really just wanted winamp for online radio. I think I'll stick with Kaffeine and Amarok. I hear alot of good stuff about them
  9. I get this error when I try to install winap for linux. Some package requested cannot be installed: Winamp-0.a1-1.i386 (due to unsatisfied libpng.so.2) do you agree ? I searched my pc for this package and it wasn't found. any ideas?
  10. I'm just rying to try new things and I heard enlightenment, window maker, and xfce were nice dektop managers. I've really only tried kde and gnome so far
  11. alright, I got xfce installed. but I some of the packages had bad signatures. I wonder if this is going to effect the performance or stability of it.
  12. I tried that, but I still unable to browse. Is there anything that must be enabled in the basic setup also?
  13. of course it is! why didn't I think of that before.
  14. I run mandrake 10.1 and I cannot browse my network with Samba unless I turn the firewall off. Is there a way I can configure the firewall settings to where I can browse my network and keep the firewall on?
  15. Is there any way to install xfce without having to compile the source in konsole (for some reason, every time I try to install an app in konsole I get errors with my compilers). I tried to run urpmi xfce, but I dont believe it's in the repository (yes, I updated first).
  16. thats cool. that saves my drive space. I didn't use the remove media option that you mentioned. but that just means it will search for .rpm's on my pc and on the servers, right?
  17. hell yeah! that worked and it was easy as hell! Jus one question, though. When I run urpmi "whatever" is the program installing from files on the .ftp servers? cuz that's what it looks like. Or is it copying the files to my pc, then installing? By the way, thanks. you guys helped out alot.
  18. Yeah, I knew about rpmdrake, but when I download the tar's of the net, I never see any .rpm's after extracting them. So, you know, I figured it wouldn't work in rpmdrake. I didn't even see that urmi config tool at the top of screen until now. what's the difference between urpmi and urpmf?
  19. I'm pretty new to mandrake, so I probablydont know what I'm doing. I'm not trying to manually compile it. What happens is that when I run the ./configure file for Irssi in Konsole, I get these errors. Running the ./configure in konsole is the basic way of installing apps in linux, isn't it? damn, I'm starting to get confused.
  20. I ran "urpmf gmodule" and this is what came back: [dubbrich@localhost dubbrich]$ urpmf gmodule libglib1.2:/usr/lib/libgmodule-1.2.so.0 libglib1.2:/usr/lib/libgmodule-1.2.so.0.0.10 libglib2.0_0:/usr/lib/libgmodule-2.0.so.0 libglib2.0_0:/usr/lib/libgmodule-2.0.so.0.400.6 Note: since no media searched uses hdlists, urpmf t You may want to use --name to search for package n [dubbrich@localhost dubbrich]$ after running "rpm -qa grep glib", I got this: grep-2.5.1-5mdk
  21. I also installed al the glib packages I have and their dependicies. still get the same error.
  22. my urpmi is already installed: urpmi-4.5-29.1.101mdk
  23. when I install irssi (with konsole) I get an error saying that it can't find gmodules. well, the gmodules directory is in the irssi-0.8.9 folder. It also says that it comes with glib, which I do have. here's the error: Building text frontend ........... : yes, using termcap Building irssi bot ............... : no Building irssi proxy ............. : no Building with module support : NO!! /LOAD will not work! - You're missing gmodule (comes with glib) for some reason, or it doesn't work in your system. Building with Perl support ....... : static (in irssi binary) Perl library directory ........... : (site default - /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/i386-linux-thread-multi) Install prefix ................... : /usr/local any help would be much appreciated.
  24. never mind. I went ahead and downloaded all the needed packages and the install worked fine. Marked the thread Solved - Artificial Intelligence
  25. I'm trying to install Xchat and in order to do so, I need a stable C compiler (according to the error I got Konsole). anyway, I tried to install it off my CD and most of the compiler packages have bad signatures. Is there a location where I can download a full stable compiler, instead of trying to get each individual package?
