dwinn

I've just successfully installed a library called CLHEP. However, there doesn't seem to be any sort of executible file and I became very confused. How does one open a library on the linux terminal? Thank you.

Why Mandrake 9.1 gets an "A"

TrakerJon

I've installed a lot of different distributions over the years, some good and some quite frustrating. My favorites have been Mandrake, Debian, SuSe and Red Hat. The latest release of Mandrake though really does stand out from the pack.

emachines M5305 Laptop

dlieberm

I recently purchased an emachines M5305 laptop. Works fine with Windows XP. I have been unable to install Red Hat 9 or Lindows 3. 0. The unit has a new ATI IGP 320M video card. This card allows for an external monitor to be added simultaneously with the laptop screen.
