Re: [luau] Hat 7.3 / Drake 8.2 / Simplicity

Sometimes it's just a matter of raising the volume on the mixer, but I don't know much about Red Hat other than it gave me a lot of problems that I couldn't solve easily.

by different people.

Now, I have a question. I'm pretty much a newbie in Linux. 
1. Is there anyway I can put my Linux machine into a Microsoft network.
I want to do this because my other machine is still in Windows XP.

2. How is the easiest way to set up my sound card? Is SoundBlaster Live!
supported by redhat 7.3? I checked in their website but I found no match
but somehow I'm sure redhat 7.3 should support it. As I said in my
previous email I tried to play my mp3s. It appears that the
visualization shows something is being played but no sound came out.

Thankd y'all,

Lucas

Well I disagree about paying to have questions answered.  We are here

as

a group to help each other.  I have helped you, you have helped me.  I
have helped Warren, he has helped me.  That's the way it should be.
 While the goal of running Windows software on a Linux system is a

noble

one, I would rather see Linux become very strong in the user friendly
department and thus attract more users.  With a a large user base

there

should be more incentive for good native Linux software.  I'm actually
rather committed to just running native Linux stuff and forgetting the
rest.  The reason I say this is that I had a Mac PPC 6160 Dos
Compatible.  It actually had a 486 processor in it and the two
processors booted simultaneously.  What it taught me is that one
operating system running under the control of another one is not the
best of solutions as it it overly complex.  In the 60's there were a

lot

two engine top fuel dragsters, but now all the records are set by cars
running just a single engine.  The Indy Racing League started up and

one

of the changes they made was to remove the turbo chargers from the

cars.

 Now the qualifying field for this year's Indy 500 was the fasted ever
by quite a few MPH.  Wine and crossover may be good in the short term,
but they are bad in the long term.  But to each his own.  If you want

to

struggle with an overly complex system go right ahead, but I prefer a
car with hand crank windows and a standard transmission.
