Afternoon All, Well after a morning of fun I'm back on line with new issues and some feedback...
1. win32 mount I couldn't copy the content of my home folder to \mnt\win\my documents\linux without being presented by hundreds of errors about things that I didn't understand so gave up. 2. tar The man for tar sux. I eventually figured out how to create a tar with the content of a folder (\home\don) so that I could restore my email. 3. MDK 10 install & screen My screen was different from the problem I had with rh9 but not correct during the installation. I'm happy to report that it did work it out. 4. Evolution & root & performance I didn't find an option to install this during the os install. I have yet to workout how to log on as root. I found 2 different places to install packages from. One worked and one didn't... thou I'm not sure if adding my user to the 'root' group gave me enough rights to do the package install. The only logon I've found so far seems to present an XP style screen where I have to select a user (of which root is not an option). How do I log on as root? So far performance seems to be beter than rh9. Thou I also didn't set up a heap of services this time... as I'm getting to know what things are I'm getting beter at not including unrequired things. 5. Hardware problems... When ever I do a warm boot I loose the onboard lan card. The only way to get the network card back is to cold boot. How do I fix this problem or at least track down what's causing the problem? When I boot up without the PCMICA DVD/CD pluged in MDK doesn't seem to recognise it if I plug it in warm. Cheers Don
