    Mandrake 10 USB Drive

    Thanks, but that wasnt my problem: the icon was appearing but something was going wierd in the SCSI layer emulation that made it act like an empty drive (eg. a usb floppy drive w/no floppy). Whatever it was, it randomly stopped and now works fine. I think mandrake 10 (community) has some...

    Mandrake 9.1 to 10 upgrade

    If you had problems w/sound in 9.1, you get them again in 10 but you have to apply a different fix. 10 uses alsa by default, so prepare for the change. -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ echo `fortune fortunes`$'\b in bed.' Your lover will never wish to leave you in bed.

    Macs won't allow saving to removable drives

    No idea what program they're using, i think just the OS if that's possible (im not a mac user - i want to not kill myself) I think they honestly don't know why this is happenning - but how much time they've put into it i don't know. It's impossible to get tech to do anything at our school...
