-------- Original Message -------- Subject: Mandrake9.0 beta2 install Date: Thu, 15 Aug 2002 16:46:52 +0100 From: John Richard Smith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: NEWBIE 1 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Computer, MSI k7t266 pro 2 with raid (but disabled in bios) geforce3 via8233 sound chipset with ac97 codec 1800 Athlon processor 512mb ddr ram Install, all 3 cd's md5sum tested ok. no problems with usb detection. programme installer reported one error, tux racer failed. DrakX printer install configuration had problems, only one of four Z53 drivers would configure where normall 3 do. I cancelled lilo install, it refused cancell and buggered up my lilo entries, since this was only a beta2 test I was going to boot on a floppy and save my dual boot lilo.conf entires, this has made unnecassary work to repair the damage. Clearly lilo cancell tab does not work. Desktop config Sound seems to work ok, though not tested all apps. Screen resolution had to be inproved on desktop. as it would not accept best config in Xwindows condig Don't like the increasingly difficult manner inwhich root is being made difficult to set up properly.This is retrograde. Not everyone wants this dictatorial approach. John -- John Richard Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED] Upon further examination, I now realize that the lilo entries were not changed, the situation fooled me because the splash screen that comes up has completely changed , and the entries there, but the script it runs had not changed. Apologies. John -- John Richard Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED]
