Having just purchased a new Toshiba A45-S150 laptop today, I was anxious to split the hard drive for a dual boot with Linux. Now I know XP and Linux don't exactly go hand in hand, but I tried resizing the XP partition nonetheless. While installing Linux in the free space though, I received an...

I'm running Mandy 9.2 with a Radeon, one that works fine with Windows. 800x600 rez is also fine when used in Linux, however, anything over that fills the screen with static. The refresh rates were auto detected, and I've tried playing with them, but so far no luck. Describing the problem is...

Recently I was forced to play around with Gtk2 in an attempt to satisfy a dependency. I downloaded multiple files, Glib, perl-Gtk2, etc, but nothing seemed to work. Eventually I gave up, but then another problem presented itself. When trying to open the mandrake control center, nothing...

I'm running mandy 9.1 2.4.21, but recently I tried recompiling it to install a patch a friend of mine had given me. I managed to apply the patch, set the things I wanted installed in the new kernel, and then compile it. It boots up fine, but the new kernel can't find anything I used to have...

I'm running Mandy 9.1 and using an 19' Envision EN-910e monitor. My video card is a 64mb Radeon VE. For a while now, every resolution above 800x600 has caused flicker, or what looks like static, on the screen. Even now as I type this, static lines are appearing and disappearing across the...

At the moment I'm running a fresh instally of Mandrake 9.0, and seem to be only having one problem. A few days ago everything was perfect, but I decided to show a friend the installation process anyway. I went through it, got everything up and running again, and went about getting back to...

I recently downloaded aterm to see all those pretty translucent windows everyone's been talking about, but doing so brought a question to mind. Is there anyway to open an aterm window (or any other program without a graphical front-end) without first using another terminal window? I realize...

I'm posting this question for a friend of mine who's been stuck in a very unappealing situation for quite a while now. Forced to use dial up due to where he lives, he used to have acceptable ping (=<300) in online games such as Quake 3. Nowadays however, on every server he joins he lags out...

I've been having this problem for almost a year now, and have yet to find a solution. Currently I own a Belkin cable gateway/router for my home LAN, which works fine the majority of the time. However, whenever I run the program &quot;nmap&quot; or similar scanner utility, all the machines in...

Looking for advice more than help really...currently I have a 1.1ghz machine with WinXP Pro installed. I'd like to install the Mandrake 9.0 I currently have onto this faster machine...but concerns about sound configuration and (I admit) games I want to play are preventing me from doing a...

Currently I'm using Mandrake 7.1, 2.2.16. I have plans of upgrading to newer versions of suse in the future, but for the time being I'd like to get online using Mandrake. The problem is, I keep getting network interface cards that claim to work with Linux...and yet never do! I'm using a...

I've had this problem before, but after a few weeks of playing around I still can't produce the answer. I registered a domain name, set up my router to allow the http connection to go through to the machine running apache, and set up all my html files. Everytime I enter in my site url or ip...

I've been interested in playing around with IPv6 for the past few days, so I finally decided to grab a new kernel from kernel.org and set it up with the protocol. The first kernel I tried was 2.4.18, and after going through all the steps, I rebooted and found that it refused to work. It began...
