I just loaded the latest Ubuntu on my "spare" PC, and I'm wanting to stop using Windoze altogether.

One of the most used programs in my computer is Micro$oft Publisher. I use it to publish our...

I've done some checking, and it seems that the overall favorite is dabian. I'm downloading dabian 506 ISOs right now and gonna see. What the heck? I can't hurt it...

I've got a vintage Power Macintosh G3-266, and would like to put it to use. I've tried Mac OS X 10.2.8 (the maximum it's capable of), but available software is pitiful. Someone has suggested Linux,...

I installed 9.04 Ubuntu on a machine I built last year, and it will not give me the full capability of my video card or monitor. They both have the capability of 1280x1024, but the best it gives me...

Yeah, I'm downloading to a nearly empty 80Gb hard drive, so I have plenty of room. And besides, it could be the burning software.

I think I'm just gonna see if Best Buy here in town has the...

But unfortunately, I have no DVD.

Thanks...

So far, I have downloaded and burned 4 different copies of Fedora FC4-i386-disk1.iso from 4 different locations, and each one of them has proven to be "corrupt or incomplete". (I'm downloading the...

I've only had one experience trying to run Linux, back when Red Hat 7.3 was new, and I was never able to make it work properly, so I'm still a total noob at this.

Presently, I run a forum, BBS,...

I checked HP for an updated WIN printer for my Deskjet842c, and it sent me drivers for DJ840 series. I loaded them in Windoze, and they worked, but believe it or not, Linux liked them as well, and...

I was having problems setting up my printer (HP DeskJet842C), because, of all things, my hostname was not being accepted.

Don't know if that MIGHT be your problem or not, but it's just a...

Could not find it anywhere in the menu structure. I do know it is a KDE addon, but even reinstalling it did not replace the icon or a menu selection.

Tried that and this is what I got:
KDEInit could not launch 'Konqueror':
Could not find 'Konqueror' executable.

Without realizing what I was doing, I deleted the KDE desktop icon for Konqueror web browser.

Does anyone running RedHat 7.3 know how to retrieve it? It is not listed in any menu, and I cannot...

O.K., following several users' advise, I have installed ProFTPd (xinetd setup), and with Webmin, configured it (I think), but (1) I don't know if it is running, because (2) I don't know how to access...

Should that be /dev/usblp0 or /dev/usb/lp0??

Well, I made the file you suggested, but it still does the same thing. Prints about 1/2 page, and then the yellow 'trouble' light starts flashing, flashes for about 10 minutes, then the thing...

Did not have it, made it, what does it do??



Well, it's things like this that make me lean towards it, but have not decided completely yet.

Thanks

I have a usb deskjet 842c that is giving me grey hair.

It configures o.k., then when I try to print to it, it prints a couple of lines and just quits. The light flashes like it is busy, then it...

Excuse me for butting in, but doesn't ProFTPd have to be configured AND compiled??

and ALL that login stuff that flashes by when the thing is booting?? where is it?

There were a couple of items in it I need to check on....

I got all those, thanks, what I am referring to are the things like the FTP server docs that "install" on the machine, kernel docs, etc. There is supposed to be a document reader, but for the life...

I have been trying to set up RH v7.3 by the seat of my pants, mainly because not only do I not know where the DOCS are, the ones I can find, I cannot access to read :(

Help, please :confused:

I noticed while my RH v7.3 was booting up that my localhost.localdomain was spelled wrong.

It was reporting p-ii.sqareone (missing the 'u' in squareone) instead of p-ii.squareone.

I have...

hehehe, I remembered that trick from my old DOS days :D

When all else failed, turn it offf then on again while it boots or loads. Usually works....this time it doesn't.

This time I...
