Title: Message
Hello All
 
 
hope this is the right place to rise the question........


I Have The Above Card In A Machine I Have @ Home While Running Mandrake 8.2
I Didn't Had Any Network Problems. I Have An ADSL Connection That Has An
Alcatel Modem That Acts As A Router And In My Linux Machine Like In The
Wintel Os The Gateway Is The Alcatel Address. I notice That Since I Upgraded
to mandrake 9.0 Or Mandrake 9.1 And Even On An Clean Install of mandrake 9.0 or 9.1  I have network
problem Accessing The Net. Suppriszelly I Manage To Solve Them When The
Machine Boot Up When In  Grub I choose Linux Old Which Use Kernel :
2.4.21-0.13mdk then I get reasonable response from the connection while doing traceroute or
ping when the machine comes up normal then the results are poor and most of
the time I can't access the internet
 
 
will appreciate all help  given....

Not true at all. Where did you get into that conclusion from?

During the last instaparties (over the last 2.5 years), we have gone with both Mandrake and Redhat versions all the way (together), and during the installation themselves we've mainly installed Mandrakes. This very last meeting, I also supported Mandrake, but for some justified problems with laptops (which we'd believed that many of these would arrive), most of the rest of the club decided to go on Redhat 8.0 (for a change!), and this is what we did. Indeed, we've had some typical "bugs" there as well, such as unidentical graphics card leads toward messy configuration with the X. Another X problem is that you can't install it if you don't have SOME mouse (and to use your mouse later at home), and the "default" installation doesn't hold some very important programs, which we'd believed that would naturally be tagged.

Now, it seems that Mandrake 9.1 works better, but nobody knows what will happen until next winter. Things change. We might go for both distros, and we might choose only one of them. This is where you can raise your voice, and if you arrive to the club, you will be able to do it as well. Until then (around October) - we are peaceful :)
