    full disk in MDK9.1 ?

    Hello, I've installed MDK9.1 week ago and to yesterday everything was alright. Tody a try to start computer and after LILO in booting part there was information printed that my disk (partition / ) is full and my X didn't started. Please help me my disk can't be full I'm sure with it. When I delete anything the disk is still full so I think it is some error but where? I'm sure that I didn't make any change in linuxconf or something like it from yesterday to today. Can anyone help me?

    full disk in MDK9.1 ?

    I've solved the problem. there was 300MB .xsession-errors file in my /root directory :-) I didn't see it before because dot is at the start of it's name. Yesterday I used find / -size +102400k and only one file was bigger (.xsession-errors). I was too lazy to open it so I deleted it and everything is alright now.

    full disk in MDK9.1 ?

    I'll try rpm -e but tell me how can I uninstall this way for example GNOME (I'm using KDE). rpm -e <what?> and what about dependencies?

    full disk in MDK9.1 ?

    My hard drive is small (4GB) I have three partitions 1) / (root) 2) swap 3) /home. I've alocated 2,2 GB for / , something about 300MB for swap and the other space for /home. No other system (windows). Last two days I used Mandrake only to programming in C (KEdit for writing) and Rxvt. I can get prompt after about 3 tries of my Linux to get to X. I'm sure that before yesterday's shuting down of my computer there was at least 300MB free on /. Today - nothing. I'm deleting files with rm. I've just deleted some *zip files which I don't need. I;ve deleted about 30 MB and nothing have happened. Disk is full. Linux says that only / is 100% used. /home is only 13% used
  5. Hello, I'm not very advanced user and I want install on my computer Linux Mandrake 10. May I better wait until May for official version or can I use Community Edition? Are there any fatal errors or gaps in CE?

    Hello, does exist something like Nero Drivespeed (Windows) for Linux? I like watching movies in mplayer but I donĀ“t want every movie copy to disk and my 48x Toshiba is very noisy at high speed. Where I can get something to reduce CD-ROMs rotations? Thank

    Drivespeed 4 Linux?

    for everybody who need it (I found it ) 1) mount -o speed=<speed> 2) hdparm -E <speed> (were near Dapper Dan :-)) 3) eject -x <speed> 4) cdspeed.

    slow FX5200 in MDK9.1

    Hello everyone, I'm just starter in Linux and I've got one small question. Last week I've installed Linux Mandrake9.1. I have got NVidia GeForce FX5200 128MB 128bit graph. card and the graphics in Linux is too slow (for example Tux racer, csmash). Easier - games. Everything other is OK. Do I need download drivers for graphic cards with NVidia chips?
  9. My situation: I have one empty harddrive. I want to have there two OSes - win2000 and MDK9.1. Which is the most safely way to do that. I have bad experience from past that I had installed windows and then I installed linux the windows corrupted. So now I want to do clean installation of both OS so please help me. Thanx

    slow FX5200 in MDK9.1

    To Dapper Dan: Thanks a lot. I've just done it and before requesting for username and password there appears logo of NVidia. But I think it is not better. I haven't just try TuxRacer :-) but for example xfishtank (hope U know what it is) is still slower and not continuous. Is there any next setting of graphic card instead of installation or no. Or is it normal that xfishtank is so slow? PS: My PC: Duron1.6 256MB SDRAM@133 VIA KT133 FX5200 1238 MB 128b
