Hi Alan;

=> -michael....I just cut your signature out of the message I'm
=> responding to an pasted it at he beginning here. I'm in Kedit
=> and am going to paste this into my reply in netscape when I'm
=> done.
Well *for me* it just does not work..
I tried to paste the URL out of my sig file into Netscape and it does
not work...no how. :-(
I pasted it fine into KEdit..copied out of there and it does not work
for me.
=>So far I really like using my floppy, cd and
zip in => supermount and have experienced no problems with the feature.
again...for me trying to use my CDR....that had "supermount" in the
fstab entry would just not work.
=> Well, that was a success ;-) Mike, I hope you solve your
=> problems.
The copy_&_paste thing is trivial and I can/will work around it..the
supermount thing I also worked around, and used the same entries in my
fstab file as my 6.1 box where the burner works fine. so now my burner
also works fine in 7.0...
...but this crap with the XFS dying at will, is a royal pain in the
ass..
Axalon suggested to look in the /var/log/messages if after
"restarting" xfs ....the X server still bombed...it did and here is what
is says..
xfs: xfs startup successful
xfs: fatal font server error
xfs: can not establish any listening sockets
So...what does one do to get some "sockets" listening...???
I have been a big supporter/advocate of Mandrake since 6.0, and just
wrote a very nice review for our local LUG about 7.0, where I was
highly complimentary...just before the thing killed xfs...
We were going to do an install of 7.0 at our next LUG meeeting...but now
we have decided to try Storm for this round..maybe by the next meeting,
someone will have an answer for this xfs thing.
Thanks for your input Alan..but I'm just a tad frustrated by having the
same problem crop up twice since Friday :-/
