I know that you all don't have the rest of your lives to help with this, but
if anyone can help, I surely need it! I took a UNIX class about 4 years ago
& some of it has stuck in my brain, but not enough to get me by! Ok, two
problems right now.
Most important:
I just installed Mandrake 7 a couple of days ago & am not having too many
problems. I have an Iomega SCSI Zip drive. When I installed 7, it asked me
for SCSI info. I just have what Win98 tells me:
ADAPTEC AHA150X/1510/152X/AIC-6X60 SCSI HOST ADAPTER
I/O:
0340-035F
IRQ:
10
I tried the default settings (in Linux) for the IOMEGA ZIP & the 152X. Linux
just laughed at me! Actually, it didn't find anything. Since there was a
setting for the IOMEGA ZIP in the list, I'm thinking that Zip drive are
probably supported in Linux..... Although that means nothing! Can anyone
help with this?
Second Problem:
Maybe I shouldn't even be playing with this right yet, but I asked earlier
today if the is any FREE ISP's that support Linux & "Doom" was gratious
enough to tell me about http://freenet.sourceforge.net/ . I downloaded their
little program (130K) & installed it in Linux. It has very little doc's with
it & I'm lost. (Go figure!) Problem is that I use 98 to get on the net right
now because I can't figure out how to do it in Linux.
I won't be offended if somebody ells me to wait for the net for a while so I
can get used to Linux! (At least I'll know what I'm geting myself into!)
Thanks,
Buckster
