knoppix v3.4 5-17 2004

i posted all ready in the loung and was refered to this catagory
I had had issues with the nvidia driver
instead of load glx (lowercase)
i stumbledd on the fix
load GLX (upercase)

but still doesnt detect my specific 5700LE card im using generic driver
any help here (ps im useing the latest version of nvidia from site under 2.6.6 kernel)
for those of you that get it installed and still have isssues configing (if you need wimpy gui like me use kxconfig command gives you graphic front end for configuring)


next on usb drives it only seems to pick them up 1/3 of the time i plug it in and wait 1-2 min then try again and again till it works some times only reboot fixes any suggestions


the issue with sound notifications for users not working was fixed by someone telling me to use aplay or artsplay as external player

(im listing fixes as well as curent remaining probs in case helps someone else)

next icons

under kcontrol i told it to animate all icons and it does nothing

if my memory serves me on my old mandrake install mouse in hover mode activated animations

how do i enable it here..

next

two ide accelerator cards

during boot process shows all drives

but system
hwinfo qtparted etc only show drives off of one card

my other problem with cdrom drives as scssi and not working properly was fixed by using synaptic and looking under mount (name & description ) and cant tell you witch program actually fixed it but now works properly hope this steers someone in the right direction

next (as if i havnt gripped enough)

is there a way to allow the system to integrate rpm's without using alien -d ?? would be alot simpler if i could


linux == a rose

for such a beautiful thing it sometimes has some really painfull thorns
