I upgraded the ram to 64megs but it's still way to slow to be used as a workstation. Im trying to get blackbox to work but i can't seem to get it to boot into blackbox. I downloaded the files off the blackbox website, uncompressed them and followed the how-to and read me. First I went to a...
I have a 200MHZ with 16M of ram and wanted to put linux on it. I tried Red-hat8 but it ran way too slow. Can anybody suggest what i could put on this machine and still have it run pretty speedy? I want to use it as a workstation for spreadsheets, word proccesssing and other office stuff. I...
After installing mandrake, the first time running KDE I got an error message saying:
"Error setting up inter-process communication for KDE. Message is: Could

So I did what it said...
Use get right from download.com I remember reading somewhere about the download type being binary or hex? The download site recomended using get right to not have the problem. Anyways i have a cable modem and didn't want to leave it on all night to download some files. I used get right and...
I messed up the red hat intallation pretty bad so i put mandrake back in with the new ethernet card and did like ya said and im up and running. Im afraid i might have messed up the istall again because im getting some errors saying that dcopserver isn't on. But im sure i will figure it out now...
I just thought i would give an update. Well i tried redoing the kernel and got through it ok (thanks a million on the howto for the kernel rebuild), but i kept on getting an error saying my clock time was off and that the build would be incomplete. So instead of messing around with that i...
I figured out how to look at the boot.log. I tried the command you gave me and it wouldn't work. I tried the run command and at a terminal. I finally found it with the file manager (konkour or sumtin) and tried to run it and it wouldn't work. I finally logged in as root and opened it with...

I looked around on the net and...
I tried running both commands and got a "command not found" message. I tried the run command and the x terminal. I?m not too sure if you have to be in the right dir or not. I have a lot to learn about Linux. I tried for a couple of hours of just trying to find a find command and getting it...
I just installed Mandrake Linux 8.1 and im having a problem getting my cable modem to connect To my San Diego Road Runner Service. I?ve done some searching on the net and have come up with only more questions. I?ve use windows my whole computing life and im interested in the Linux operating...
I tried the pause break and it pulls up the system prop dialog box with only three tabs instead of four. And yes i mean my device manager. I pretty much screwed here huh?
Somehow or another i made my hardware manager disappear. Ya know when you right click my puter and you see the three tabs, and one says hardware manager or somthing like that. Well mine is no longer there! I tried reinstaling windows 98 with no success. I want to update a driver but i cant...
