Hi, Need to install suse linux on a pentium 200 mmx machine. Need to know whether the files can be downloaded and burnt on to CDs. Want to know the most recent version of suse which can installed on the machine with the said cpu. Also please let me know the files which need to be downloaded for this. Thanks.
Ok, so what am i meant to use to dial in 8.0? wvdial wasn't installed, and when i did install it the yast2 stuff didn't change the wvdial.conf entries, ok so i manually fixed it, but, what did they expect me to use? what is Yast2 doing the changes to? why are the french so strange? -- Jim Boone -------------------------------------------- Buckinghamshire Chilterns University College R&D Manager - Computer Support Services Tel: 01494 522141 ext 3569 I've seen Sun monitors on fire off the side of the multimedia lab. I've seen NTU lights glitter in the dark near the Mail Gate. All these things will be lost in time, like the root partition last week. Time to die.

YaST2 is making changes to /etc/sysconfig/network/providers/<provider> It uses wvdial, but it generates a temporary wvdial.conf "on the fly" in /var/run/wvdial-tmp.conf when you dial using kinternet and smpppd. Those apps are the ones "they expect you to use" and they should have been set up for you when you installed 8.0 and gave your provider data. //Anders

I guess thats it, I'm a gnome man myself, so KDE isn't on there, hence, no dialler....
