    loki installers

    All these installers do is install the data from the windows CD. In the case of games available natively like RTCW it will use code from wine project to install the game and it will then apply the point releases and patches. In the case of farCry is it will install the game and the patches. But will require wine or wineX to work. I have only tried the ¨call of duty¨ one, but it works perfectly with wine. I do run farCry with wine but I had to install on a windows machine and copy over. (PIA) Since my retail version is the spanish one.

    linux modems

    If your modem is a serial modem the driver is in the kernel. If your modem is internal you will need to look at this page. http://www.linmodems.org/

    Installing PHP and MySQL on RedHat 9.0

    Ok it is clear that what you need is libmysqlclient.so.10 do this Code: updatedblocate libmysqlclient.so If your version is older install a newer version, if your version is newer do this. Code: ln -s ../libmsqlclient.so.X ../libmysqlclient.so.10 What the ../ means is the PATH. and what you are doing is creating a sym link.

    CDRW max speed not reached

    cdwriter does not reach max speed any more x40 only writes at x16 its a 2 min difference. To make it write at x40 dma has to be activated because if not it writes at x16. It is activated but does'nt work anymore. And hdparm gives a strange error. /dev/hdc: HDIO_GET_MULTCOUNT failed: Input/output error IO_support = 0 (default 16-bit) unmaskirq = 0 (off) using_dma = 1 (on) keepsettings = 0 (off) readonly = 0 (off) BLKRAGET failed: Input/output error HDIO_GETGEO failed: Invalid argument BLKRAGET failed: input/output error WHAT IS THIS???? It used to work fine, beats the s* out of me!

    Elitegroup Green 551

    Elitegroup make terrible mainboards so there is nothing to suggest that their laptops are any better. I would'nt touch it with a 10 ft pole... I dont want one even for free. In linux the best bet is the popular one. the hardware wich sells the most usually is the the 1 that has best linux support. From what I have seen the laptops with best quality and most popular are "dell". If you have any need for a 3d grafics make sure it has an Nvidia grafics card.

    Getting tired of Mandrake. Please help

    I used Mandrake from 7.2 until 9.1 and I can say that there where good versions and not so good versions, buggy versions and very buggy versions. 9.0 wasby far the best 9.1 was buggy as hell. I got tired of mandrake and jumped in at the deep end... Give gentoo a try! Once you install it you wont look back...

    Another problem with scsi!

    Post your /etc/fstab the 2 lines regarding your dvd and your cdrw, that is where your problem is.
