All,
So far all the man pages and How to's I've found (linuxdoc and
linuxgazette) talk about using a DHCP server OR using DHCP with your
cable/dsl modem. What for the life of me I can't find is something that
tells me how in the blue blazes to do both. I'm on cable so that's DHCP
and working
Ashley,
Had you at any time opened up the box and touched/checked the hdd
cables? Why I'm asking this is because I had a simular problem about 2
years ago with a batch of mobo's that came in. The mobo's were fine but
it seems that about 20 of them had cables that would "loose connectivity"

Unless you are planning on running a LOT of very memory hungry apps
simultaneously, 1GB of swap would be overkill. I know the 2xRAM formula
still finds favor, but this isn't true as far as I can see for machines
with this much RAM. I am running with 512 MB RAM and I've never managed

I previously received an opinion from Civilme, that XFS was a good
choice, particularly for a server and particularly if you were running
Samba on it. He stated that in speed tests it was neck and neck with
Reiser on the Mandrake distro and had some other advantages, such as the
Samba thing. I n

Does anyone know how to keep the sorting of directories and files in
Konqueror to stay the same. I'm referring to "View", "Sort", "By Name (Case

when I minimize a Kinqueror window, much less to keep it as the default.

Well, it's a question about likes and dislikes rather than another problem.
XFS and JFS are ports of another OS's, But, ext2 and ext3 are "native".
I've had experiencied with Reiser, XFS, ext2, and ext3.
Ext2 it's quit slow for any kind of machine, furthermore it is for a
server... When Linux hang
Simple. I use Reiser. Works great, is fast and stable. You can also
trust ext3 (which is essentially a slightly modified ext2 fs) but it is
still slower than Reiser (not much but it is).
Either one will do it.

Bob, is that model 2903 or 2930? I've got the 2930 and it works "out of the
