I've just installed Mandrake 8.2 on my Dell Inspiron 8100 as a
complete Linux system (no dual boot). The machine has a CD-ROM built
in and a hardware module bay in which I can put a CDRW, a ZIP-250 or a
Floppy. I installed Mandrake with the CDRW in the module bay. 

I have three problems:

1) If I swap out the CDRW module for say the Zip drive, the ZIP drive
   doesn't work. Does anyone know how to get this to work? I shutdown
   the machine before taking out the CDRW module and putting in the
   ZIP.

2) Next to the on-off button there are two volume buttons (an
   up-volume and a down-volume). These don't seem to work. Does anyone
   know how to get them to work?

3) From time to time, a command will hang. One example was doing a
   find. I've no idea why it should do this.

I'd greatly appreciate any help/advice anyone can give.

Thanks.

Adrian
