If it responds ok your modem is a real modem and will work with gnu/linux. No drivers are required. If usb u will have to use the usb and usb modem drivers and repeat the above. rgds jtd > > and the Million$ one can it be done via Linux RHL 8.0 ? ask RH. rgds jtd

Installing Xandros 3.0 on Celeron 1.7, Intel 845 board
by Abhishek Daga 12 Apr '05

12 Apr '05

Installed the Xandros 3.0 on a KDS Valiant P3 600 Mhz and it worked like a charm. Only had to mount the usb filesystem manually once and the 6 in 1 card reader became plug n play. Problem is when installing the same OS on a desktop Cel 1.7, 256 MB, Intel 845 Board, After the initial CD reading it reaches the "detecting hardware" stage at which point the machine shuts down it seems as i get the "Sync out of range" message on the monitor. Then machine needs to be restarted. Any clues why this should happen? unplugged all external devices just in case that was creating a problem, but to no avail. FC4 was installed following that without any issues. Any clues? -abhishek __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

guys, i spoke on chat on the tally site. they are like ayega ayega.. nothing confirm as yet......... I even tried running tally 7.2 with wine.. loads of problems.. i wasnt even able to run 6.3 with wine. though i have sucessfully running 5.2 with wine. If any of you get any information on on 7.2 on linux. please put in a mail to the archive. the only solution tht i was able to c was as someone here suggested, run tally on win3k and run remote clients connecting to win3k. .. Any further information will be greatly appreciated... -- Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take; out by the moments that take our breath away. Regards Santosh Rao

format of the mailing list
by Richard Chang 11 Apr '05

11 Apr '05

To All in the mailing list and the moderator in particular, Don't you think that the format of this mailing list is too complicated. All the posts are sent in batch within a mail from the moderator. This way it is too difficult to find a particular post, in which, there may be a solution to the problem queried. If every individual mail is sent as it is after being screened, it will be much easier. I know it is required to be screened, but there are other mailing lists that do it the way I am referring. Like for example the BEOWULF mailing list. The users send their mail to the main account and the main account sends it to all in the mailing list after it is screened. This just simplifies the task of finding a particular post rather than trying to find it among a heap of batch mails. This is just a personal suggestion and there is no obligation on the moderators part to accept it. Thank you, RC

Ok..just try to rename the /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc to /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.ol I'm not 100% sure though about this one, also backup the original file before doing any changes rgds Sameer 'You will be what you WILL to Be' -James Allen
