Hey there Oldbugger, and others! I got Mandrake 8.1 today at 'staples', an office etc store. Just now configuring my HD using System Commaner 7.0 to install a new operating system. Will let ya all know when I've gotten it going!
Question: I connect to the internet through our LAN using a devie called a web beetle (address of 192.169.0.5 and I always assigned my computer with a static address. Can I do the assigning of addresses and Default Gateway in LInux?
I downloaded a program called WINE, a sort of DOS emulator to allow some Windows programs to be recognized by Linux. Any one out there using such a thing?
Can I use thngs like ICQ or Microsoft messenger with Linux?
Thanks for responding....I'm sure there are others that might benefit from these "newbie" questions!
Cheers!
