I`m quite a noob, just installed Fedora Core 1. But I can`t connect to the internet, I have 2 NIC`s , one onboard and one external, both work fine and get detected by Fedora, but I cant activate them.. They both stand as inactive, when I try to activate them I get a message like " Check cable" or so. Tried using rp-pppoe too, but when I try to connect I get the message: "Child process exited abnormal" help would be appriciated!

Okay. Heres what I need help with. When I installed Red Hat 8 I chose text login and not graphical. Now I dont know how to boot into linux ;) If anyone could help that would be great :)

looks like they have rpms for the new kde 3.2. The one review i read of it was good. I still won't use it though :)

Hi Friends,

Kindly suggest me in details as how to install bttv driver and how can i play tv.

Thanks.

Hello,

I have a 98 Machine and I Linux Fedora machine. I can see the linux machine in my windows network neighborhood but when I double click on it this error keeps coming up. "The computer or shared name could not be found. Make sure you typed it correctly and try again." I know it is a Samba setting that is wrong but I am new to Linux and need some help.

 

Thanks Joe W :(

My number one grievance with having converted to linux is that I can't seem to get to my videos.

 

Here's how far I've progressed so far:

- downloaded divx and unpacked it to a folder

- tried in vain to install divx with "./configure && make && make install"

- downloaded various parts of mplayer, a promising-looking app with codecs that runs off rpms

- installed all packs it calls for to be able to run:

-- mplayer-vidix-nvidia-1.0pre3.20040125-0.1

-- mplayer-1.0pre3.20040125-0.1

-- mplayer-vidix-1.0pre3.20040125-0.1

-- mplayer-codecs-win32-1.1-1

-- mplayer-common-1.0pre3.20040125-0.1

-- mplayer-codecs-win32-mjpeg2k-1.0-1

 

Here are my obstacles:

- divx doesnt have a config file to run, "make" returns a no target found, and "make install" only turns "install.sh" into "install" --both of which copy files to a few directories but not in a way i can call divx from a command line

- mplayer returns one warning and one error when i call it from console:

Oldest distro around ? yes.

 

Best distro around ? Oh yes.

 

Most misunderstood distro around? Hell yes.

 

Give it a try - you might find it quite surprising.

I wrote it !

 

check it out :-)

I've just done a clean install of RedHat 9 and I've only chosen to install GNOME (as KDE gets grumpy about not being a WM) - I was wondering how I can install Enlightenment so that it will be my WM, but GNOME still acting as my desktop. I did it years ago (circa 1999) - but so much has changed since then.

 

Any ideas? :(

I have set up my network connections in red hat. I am able to ping in both directions.

 

I can not seem to login from w2k box and get needed file on red hat box.

 

My w2k box is set up as a work group. I believe i my not have the host(s) set up correctly on the red hat 9 box. My red hat book offers little help.

 

Thanks!
