I opened the config file and set the gui to yes, and ran it and this was
my result;

Re: mounting the CD rom drive
mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdX /mnt/cdrom where X is the IDE drive the CD is. It should look like this: IDE0 master - hda IDE0 slave - hdb IDE1 master - hdc IDE1 slave - hdd Or you can add this line to /etc/fstab: /dev/hdX /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,owner,ro 0 0 Read the man page for mount for syntax of this file.

RE: DNS (?) Problems/Challenges
I don't believe in the Easter Bunny or Santa Claus but I do believe that my Internet provider should provide the same services as others do. I know that I'm preaching to the choir when I say that DNS services are some of the most basic but at the same time most essential services that all Internet providers should provide without any fanfare. Crippled services which say that someone can look at all the Web sites in the world except these few, is like saying "I'm glad you like your new car. Oh, BTW, you can drive it anywhere except in Buda and Kyle". Call me gullible but that's what I expect. How do I get what is rightfully owed? -------------- Lindsey Allen -----Original Message----- From: Thomas Cameron [mailto:thomas.cameron@...] Sent: Wednesday, April 30, 2003 7:04 PM To: alg@...

Re: Mplayer
Oh, I got the joke. I missed that Joe made the joke, and had forgotten that little bit. I also thought it would be especially funny if D'arpi got newbie emails now that he has quit because he is tired of spending so much time on mplayer. But I neglected to frame my response in the form of a decent joke mainly due to lack of inspiration and business...
