Hi there Ogre,
I've made some recent breakthrough....... I install the driver using "modconf" and now a get a new message "cpu over loaded" What is that suppose to mean - that my intel 1.7GHz cant handle it ?????? any idea where I am suppose to go from here

From what I was able to find, that error is the result of your CPU being overloaded with I/O requests from your soundcard. Try disabling full-duplex operation in the control panel (uncheck the box) and see if that fixes it.

What did you use to try to change the runlevel before?

There is a config file '/etc/inittab' that contains the default runlevel setting. A default inittab usually has enough comments to help you understand it. there is probably a line similar to:

id:4:initdefault:

To enable the default console-based multiuser mode, change the line to:

id:3:initdefault:

Just in case your inittab doesn't have the comments, here are the runlevels:

# 0 = halt
# 1 = single user mode
# 2 = unused (but configured the same as runlevel 3)
# 3 = multiuser mode (default Slackware runlevel)
# 4 = X11 with KDM/GDM/XDM (session managers)
# 5 = unused (but configured the same as runlevel 3)
# 6 = reboot

For the sake of everyone involved, be VERY careful when editing this file!

Every distro is a bit different, but the problem with doing a chmod -x on gdm, is that somewhere in your rc scripts it may rollover to xdm, or kdm if gdm is not found/executable.

hi i would like to know if you were able to install a red hat linux dns server and bind. if so cna u help me try to configure mine. :mrgreen:
