Hi, You can install kudzu... Its available as a package. 'apt-get install kudzu' should do it for you. Siddhesh -- Siddhesh Poyarekar sssp(a)softhome.net Fortune Says: F.S. Fitzgerald to Hemingway: "Ernest, the rich are different from us." Hemingway: "Yes. They have more money."

by Rajesh Bhide. 27 Dec '03

27 Dec '03

Hello Friends... This is my 1st post. so plz be kind if I did any wrong :-) I have VIA 8233 board I heard 1st sound when I used mandrek 9.2, RH 9.0 (which came along DIGIT). I think mandrek is more cool... (it's my op.) But DIGIT gave only CD-1 other 2 r missing... In mandrek 8.0 they have option at install time...But...mandrek "devloped" 9.2 so good............ Lastly "plz anyone of u folks can kindly give/distribute those CD's i tried knoppix 3.2 but it has no sound supprt/dma support /SVGA support ..ah...VIA8233... knoppix 3.3 would be nice..." Awaiting Hopefull reply... Rajesh Shrikrishna Bhide. Yahoo! India Mobile: Ringtones, Wallpapers, Picture Messages and more.Download now.

Assuming you haven't done that, did you have reiserfs on your rh system ? if not the reiserfs tools and module haven't been installed on ur rh box. where exactly have you traced the problem to ? grub or the fstab ?

[snip] I am not sure but does debian have kudzu. I think knoppix has kudzu, and is great for autodetecting devices.. [end snip] A company called Progeny is working on integrating the great kudzu and anaconda into debian.

Hi, I installed RH 9 on my system : Celeron 1.2Ghz= on an Intel 810e2 Chipset with RAM : 2 chips of 512 MB and 256 MB, = each detected to half it's capacity, to give 256+128 = 384 MB. RH = 9 detected this correctly DURING INSTALL. I got it installed and all= , but now it's VERRY slow and unresponsive. This same problem had occ= ured when I had switched my system from a P3 to a Celeron 1.2 (along with a= RAM change from 128 single to the current scenario). Why is the syst= em so slow ? What can I do? Mrudul. = [1][www.re=] References 1. 3D"http://clients.rediff.com/signature/track_sig.
