Hello, i don't have Linux yet. But I plan on getting it sooner than later. Only problem now is there are other people that use the computer that wouldn't have a clue. They have problems with Win ME so. lol I can imagen the complaining I'd hear if I setup Linux. Besides the fact my computer isn't too great, and i have a bit to learn yet before I can actually feel comfrotable using the OS.


 


Any way online friend told me to check this site out so I'll save it and check back in time to time. So I thought I'd say SUP!.

Hi.

 

I'm having trouble with my old 'puter, it's a 800MHz intel P3. I decided to try Linux for the first time, and I was recommended RedHat 9 or Fedora. I've tried both, and I'm having trouble getting it installed. The media check passes and fails randomly (I've tried two different CDR units, and at least 5 different discs.)

Then, when it starts cpying files to disk, it says that it's having an error installing xxxx.(see pic), it seems like it's not the same pack that fails, and one time, the screen went black, and a lot of un-recognizable letters appeared.

I think maybe it's a I/O problem between the CDROM and the Mainboard, but MS WIN XP installs just fine. Anyone with some tips or experience ?

Hi Friends,

My system consist of following peripherals along with Operating sytem as LInux Redhat 9(shrike)kernel version 2.4.20-8 i686.wiith dual booting (1st partition with Win ME and 2nd Partiion with Redhat 9)

1>HSF conexant Internal Modem

2>Inbuilt AC-97 sound card with Motherboard - ASUS-P4B and Processor P-4(intel 1.5GB).

3>AGP card Ge Force -2 MX 100

4>Pixel View Play TV Pro tv-tuner card (bttv878)

 

For viewing the TV on LInux . I have already downloaded bttv driver bttv-0.9.12.tar.gz.Now for viewing TV through Xawtv-3.8.1 ,i will have to recompile my kernel with the video for linux as option 'module'.

Kindly suggest me about the other configuration option to be enabled in each section so that i may recomplile the kernel without any error message at boot time.

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 :)
