Another go please!?
by Terry Filby 22 Aug '00

22 Aug '00

My first ALUG meeting was at Aylsham when Andrew Savory very kindly put a Debian distro on my Packard Bell Executive, not without problems, but he, unlike myself, had the experience to get out of them, it was fine for a month or three, and then I tried to upgrade it, but only succeeded in mucking the installation up - I have tried several distro's since then, all with no success, apart from Lnx4Win from Mandrake which, of course, runs on the window partition, so no problem, though it wasn't as good or as fast as a dedicated partition for it. I have recently bought a 2nd-hand Thinkpad 560E with Mandrake 7.0 installed on it for me, but I would still like a 'proper' distro, preferably Debian, as I was very much impressed with the one Andy put on, but I have several other distro's on CD, including Suse 6.4 and all the Linux Format cover disks plus others. I would like, if possible - and if someone could install it for me - to bring my computer to Sylham next Sunday along with all of my distro's if needed, I have 3 CD's of Debian, but would like the latest one if I can. Thanks Terry

I suggest 1800 on Monday 21st Aug, eu.openprojects.net, port 8001, channel #alug -- is that good for people?

Web Server help
by scott taylor 12 Aug '00

12 Aug '00

Everyone I e-mailed some time ago about setting up a web server with my laptop with windows98 AMD K6 475 and my Cyrix Computer 300 processor which was running Red Hat 6.0 but is now running Mandrake 7.1 After some good advice I am planning to buy 2 network cards it was just the next bit that confused me compile the appropriate kernel modules and link them together with a special Ethernet cable called a "crossover" cable (which is designed for linking two machines direct to each other). The above paragraph does not mean much to me I know my Laptop has to be linked to my Computer via cabling but what's this bit about kernel modules? Scott P.S If anyone does come through Bury St Edmunds I would be interested to know as I don't drive. _______________________________________________ alug, the Anglian Linux User Group list Email: alug(a)stu.uea.ac.uk http://rabbit.stu.uea.ac.uk/cgi-bin/listinfo/alug See the website for instructions on digest or unsub!
