iccaros

for now.. It has a (bad) hard drive installer. The goal is this a distrobution that can be a live cd.. can be installed as any other disto.. and then your can make your distro a live cd to take with you.. Knoppix you can install but it hard to make what you install in to a cd again.. also because its based on the slax scripts you can make plug in cds.. you what dvdrip or you want a diffrent software or more software.. its easy to add (as soon as I write up how that is) I have two more versions almost ready.. (next few weeks..)

Let me know.. This cd is based on scripts that turn a linux install into a live cd.. They were on the slax site, but www.slax.org has been down since the 21st. I have the scripts on my site and my changed scripts.. the origianl scripts had problems if you made an install larger than 186 megs.. Its a OVLFS problem.. OVLFS is no longer in development so I made some workarounds.

This is to announce my linux distrobution.. Iccaros-linux you can find my newsite at www.iccaros-linux.org The site is not finished and needs lots of work.. but I do have the download section mostly done.. you can download the first release.. what is in it.. kde 3.3 k3b cd/dvd burning fluxbox realplayer 10 java koffice openoffice dia nvu kasablanca (gui ftp client) firefox kcontact kdevelop nmap xmame the GIMP windows terminal server client (my script) skype voip software gaim vnc software KPPP for modem users wireless tools ndiswraper Mplayer xmms slapt-gui package manager ethereal mounting

sorry.. I should remember for knoppix.. open a terminal.. there are several ways.. type sudo su (this makes you super user... or what we call root.. the su means switch user) then type cat /proc/pci post the output. the cat command is like echo in dos or the type command (more like type) in UNIX (this same thing works for Mac osX) the /proc folder is where it stores everything it finds hardware wise.. so we say cat /proc/pci because your soudn card is on the pci bus. this way we can see if A It saw the sound card.. and be what it thinks your soudn card is.. this wil

learn bash scripting. remember only users in the wheel group can become root. if you are spending 5 days on a server ... you need to start over..

have ghad no problems with any HP printers using the hpoj drivers.. my only problems are ignoring etc-update in gentoo and hitting -3 to let it update.. that will kill an OS fast..

the ones you listed are all good enough.. ADIOS is based on Red Hat.. I have never seen the others.. But any Cd will teach you something

since I don't use Konqueror often , Im assuming you know were its plugin folder is. but incase not.. try this.. under your home folder you have a .netscape/plugins. find the flash plugin and link it.. example would be. ln -s /flashpluginfolder/flashplugin.so /home/username/.netscape/plugins/ then have Konqueror find netscape plugins as I am sure its looking in the .netscape folder..

did you cat /proc/pci and post it??

search for computers looks at the master browser and asks if they know the machines on the network. With that in mind ethereal is need if you do not see them (or tcpdump) to see the packets and responces the masterbrowser are getting.

here is the apache guide to tell you how.. http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/mod_proxy.html

have you used any tools.. like ethereal or even ping the box.. first we need ot know if its making contact at all. I knwo I have my wirless hub connect to a switch. But the time to live for wireless is to short to route through the switch.. I wach on ethereal and tcpdump all the packets but they are rejected by tcp/ip stack as dead. if you need some tools. Knoppix.org.. or search ethereal as they have a windows version.. its free and the only way you cna trouble shoot these problems.

try doteasy.. $9.99 a month for 40 gig storage and unlimited downloads... (non windows server)

not includig Apache.org??? what are you running it on.. Winders or Unix/Linux/Mac????

what is the computer.. need more information.. most laptop share sound card with modem.. works great with winders as the driver was written to.. in linux where hte laptop makers have made no effort for linux.. you need to shut off the modem in the bios and sound should work.. if not do this and post if cat /proc/pci

linux.org has a linux101 also

we all were at one time.. it get additive. I use Vmware alot and try every distrobuution in it.. for $189 its much better than buying a new PC. plus you can pause and boot others, run mutiple vmware session (ram cpu dependent) .. I have my standard Gentoo install wiht vmware.. I use windows XP in vmware for Autocad and VISIO (work stuff) please anyone we need autocad for Linux and art for DIA so I can drop VISIO. I also use it to build my own linux..

the good thing is you do not need any of the tools you listed in linux....... you may have to change your signature..

when you go to logout there is no shutdown???? try typing init 5 (mandrake may be telinit 5 insted of init) as root when you login.. or kdm insted of kdestart if kdm is not running you will not be able to shutdown from kde.. if you can't spend the time to learn.. Windows is easy I hear. init levels are some of the most powerfull tools in linux.. just think how fast video transcoding is if you were not using up memory with a GUI. look at your /etc/inittab and make sure you are set to start at init level 5 not 3

I use prozilla to downlaod.. but if its stalling it may be a problem with the driver.. I have never had good luck with winmodem drivers in linux.. what are the otehr specs of the machine.. also when it stalls type dmesg and see of your kernel is telling you something.

does audio work normally on your system.. have you palyed cd's or mp3's? which program are you using ot do DVD's xine?

sorry.. yes you will have to uninstall suse's version of xine or kaffeine and install new ones.. remeber MS has no way of playing DVD's out of the box.. you have to install a DVD player in MS.. This comes with the MS version of libdvdcss.. problem ..no one has made a for sale DVD playing program.. if you live in the US.. you need to make people aware that the movie industry is tring to stop people from watching their movies.. I know this sound wrong.. but they what ot make money on the movie and on the player. they say its to stop people from stealing the movies....... please .. it because

try man man on the command line.

any tar.gz files tar -zxvf <filename> good reads for you are rpm and tar. Its not stupidity to not understand the Command line tools, MS has done their best to make sure people have no way of leaning how a OS works. so by hiding the command line you stop seeing the SO work. this is good in some places where people do not care. But Now you have so called windows Experst who have no clue what happens when they click something. this is where linux is a good thing.. you have yast, great but now you see what happen when a company dictates what you can and can not do. now some of use gentoo.

command as root rpm -ivh ./<filename> if they are in a folder by them selves you can do this rpm -ivh ./* any questions?
