ok, i've got another nic, its a 3com 905 (something) thats not whats giving me hassles right now, it doesnt want to install at all. but it works on my pc at work fine. any ideas about this. work pc p4 2.6 256mb ddr 2x 20gb hdd 52 speed lg cdrom

i saw the bit about the nforce boards being unknown. if it doesnt support something will it install at all?

what exactly oes novell do on your network? does it manage your internet access (border manager for example)?

thanks for the link here's my system specs: amd athlon 2500+ epox nforce2 motherboard - onboard network, sound card 2x 512mb ram 40gb maxtor hdd 80gb maxtor hdd 120 seagate hdd (all 7200rpm) geforce fx 5700 256mb lg dvd-rom lg 8 speed dvd writer pci ide expansion card (this is what i think isnt supported but not sure)

ok i got suse 9 pro (took me long enough), but before i install it i want to know if it will support my hardware. if anyone knows of any sites where i can check out what it supports i would be very grateful

punkisdead, where did you find your lindvd?

just tried the link, it keeps throwing me off, do i need a password username to download as it tells me : site disconnected us at beggining, please try again.

just found this what do you think? Quote: I read and studied and found an answer: Captive (captive is a patch/extension for a linux/GNU kernel so the computer can read-write on a ntfs, VFAT, etc...) Captive mount a ntfs drive so it can read, write and compress... Now the problem.... I can: mimithebrain@h___ # mount -t captive-ntfs /dev/hda2 /mnt/windows

anyone know where i could get a good list of linux console comands?

thanks everyone, i guess i'll keep a fat32 partition to transfer files, and hopefully soon linux will be able to write to ntfs.

i was wondering if there is a way for linux to be able to write to an ntfs partition or am i fighting a lost cause as i want to share files between windows and linux, and i dont really want to have a fat partition on my pc if i can help it.

ok, i recently ran out of ide slots so i decided to buy a pci ide controller. are there linux drivers for this kind of card? if anyone knows anything that would help i all ears.

i agree about gnome and kde being good, i've found that kde is the easiest to use, but i quite like icewm but everyone has their personal preference

thanks for the link, but i'm gonna have to keep looking cause they dont ship to south africa downloaded fedora, looks ok but i think i would prefer suse
