5 threads in total, actually. Care for a Spam sandwich? :cheesy:

* What exact error do you get when you try to write to the share from the Windows boxen?

* Open a DOS window, run each the following commands, and post the exact results returned by each command:...

* Can you start by posting the contents of your smb.conf file, please.
* Provide as many details as possible regarding what you have already tried, as that info might give us some clues.
* Have you...

You're right- any computer (regardless of OS) running the TCP/IP protocol uses the local loopback IP address of 127.0.0.1, which is traditionally aliased to the name "localhost".
Given that, the...

And so you dug up a 1 1/2 year old thread just to let us know? :mrgreen:

Right. Also:

- The first resolution listed on the "modes" line is the default. If you want X to start in another res, edit that line so your desired res comes first.

- If you've configured...

What he said (all of it).

One question does beg asking there- why do you not have root access on a machine upon which you are trying to install a rather major piece of software?

Did you burn the installation CD? If so, did you burn it correctly?

1. A very common mistake is to download a Linux iso images and then just burn it to CD as a file instead of burning the iso as a...

Yes, it certainly does. :mrgreen:

Resizing any partition presents the possibility of data loss, but you're definitely asking to get hosed if you try to resize an active OS/system partition. Also...

You're welcome. G4L is your friend when it come to searching for Linux info.

Christian is right about XINE; I think that a lot the legal issues that used to hamper XINE's functionality have been...

Google has a Linux-specific search function (http://www.google.com/linux); you'll get more focussed results if you use that when looking for Linux info.

DVD usage in Linux has been hampered by...

I know what you mean. I've had more weird, flaky experiences with that @#$*% firewall than I care to think about....

Glad you at least got it happening, though. :)

Hmm... that all looks good to me; I'd think you should at least be able to ping at this point.

Just to really eliminate this possibility- turn off XP's firewall entirely. After disabling the...

1. As Christian asked, can you post the results of running the "ifconfig" command on the RH box please?


2. 169.254.0.0- * - 255.255.0.0 - U - 0 - 0 -0 eth0

That can indicate a problem with the route/gateway settings on hte RH box.

Open a terminal window on the RH box, type the following command at the prompt, and post the command's output for us:
...

If you're connecting the computers together directly (that is, not through a hub/switch/router), you need to make sure you are using a "crossover" Ethernet cable; the computers will not be able to...

Have you tried the simple way? Depending on the package, you may just be able to do:

make uninstall

Ah... that would explain the dialog message, wouldn't it?

phate615,

What Christian (kc0arf) meant was that you should open a terminal window in Linux and type that command at the prompt....

Linux could have gotten confused by itself, but your setup is nowhere near as "twisted" as one of my systems (which hasn't had any such problems), so what you ran into might be a result of the way in...

OK- if you've reformatted, and the problem hasn't resurfaced since, we don't need those files.

Just FYI, though- the files live in your /boot/grub directory.

I'm not sure (I use Redhat for the most part), but an update shouldn't make any configuration changes to your partition or bootloader setups.


No- accessing data on a FAT32 partition from...

Let us know how it goes. Those boot options often do the trick, but if not, we'll try to come up with some other solution(s) for you.

Redhat 9 has some options which you can pass to the kernel at the Boot: prompt to work around certain problems or incompatibilities. You can read about them here:

...

Just at first glance (although it may not be the fix): your PATH statement should only point to the directories in which executables reside, not to the executables themselves; try this instead:

...

Have you had any version of Linux running correctly on this system before? Give us the system's full specs.

Very cool; glad you finally got it going, and the Wombat is glad that the snuffling helped! :mrgreen:

Now that you can actually get started using Linux, here's a site you're really going to...

Oh, and just FYI: Google has a Linux-specific search section. Instead of just going to www.google.com, go to www.google.com/linux instead. ;)

The answers to all of your partitioning questions are really much too lengthy for me to post here in one big lump-sum, but over the past number of years I (and others) have posted these answers for...

Why do you ask?

Very basically, the Boot ROM is a Read-Only Memory circuit (usuallly a separate chip) which stores low-level instruction code (pre-programmed, permanent, and...

Drives, as in plural? Everything you've posted so far indicated that we were only dealing with a single hard drive here; is that not the case?

Ok- do keep us posted, and thanks for understanding the real-world vs. online dillema; part of me thinks that if it would pay for the rent and food, I'd make online support a full time job. But.......

Sorry- I wasn't intentionally ignoring your thread. Holidays have been hectic both business-wise and family-wise, and getting back to this thread is one of the things that fell through the cracks.
...

Actually, I'm not sure that you can check that from within Windows. The overlay utilities are low-level programs that the hard drive manufacturers use to overcome the inabilty for certain BIOSes...

Knoppix doesn't need to write anything to the hard drive at all (it runs in memory), so insufficient swap wouldn't be an issue.

Are you using any "drive overlay" software on that 160G drive? If...

OK, OK- so you've busted me. :mrgreen:

The truth is that I'm a freelance computer consultant in "real life", which does make my time somwhat flexible. That said though, I probably do spend way...

Erg!

I was just about to post more info before I got notified of your most recent dillema. Hang in there- I'll respond, but I really have to log off right now and get down to eating some...

lol!
Yeah right- like I have that kind of spare time to throw at a job I don't even get paid for... :mrgreen:


Well... qtparted is a Linux utility, so if you want to use it you...
