I found the problem! ACPI was having issues with my motherboard. I changed some settings in the cpufreq files as suggested by a log file and disabled the ACPI settings - it works fine! Now i want to set up some network shares on my windows workgroup. I have the shares visible, but it wants usernames and passwords - which i dont understand what it wants! The linux newbie goes on....

Set up Windows-compatible passwords on Linux with # smbpasswd -a username Otherwises you would use the Linux username/password. The advantage of the smbpasswd solution is that will allow automatic access to your samba shares without having to login each time (on Windows).

I found the problem!

ACPI was having issues with my motherboard. I changed some settings in

the cpufreq files as suggested by a log file and disabled the ACPI settings - it works fine!

Now i want to set up some network shares on my windows workgroup. I have the shares visible, but it wants usernames and passwords - which i dont understand what it wants!

I use samba, but I would hazzard a guess that it wants the windoz user username/password....

The linux newbie goes on....

After more than 10 years, every day is a learning experience, and at sixty-five it gets harder and harder..... gud luk, -- Patrick Shanahan Registered Linux User #207535 http://wahoo.no-ip.org @ http://counter.li.org HOG # US1244711 Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-amd64+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-amd64+help@opensuse.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-amd64+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-amd64+help@opensuse.org
