Hi again, and thanks for the reply. On my hdd is my CD-RW, and the line is added to the /etc/lilo.conf. I suppose its there you mean to add it ?. But I attach it here. I have added it twice, but maybe a fault ?. boot = /dev/hda3 change-rules reset read-only menu-scheme = Wb:kw:Wb:Wb prompt timeout = 80 message = /boot/message image = /boot/vmlinuz label = linux root = /dev/hda3 vga = 791 initrd = /boot/initrd append = "hdd=ide-scsi apic" image = /boot/vmlinuz.shipped label = failsafe root = /dev/hda3 vga = 791 initrd = /boot/initrd.shipped append = "ide=nodma apm=off acpi=off vga=normal nosmp maxcpus=0 disableapic 3 hdd=ide-scsi apic" optional As far as I know, the hdc=ide-scsi is obsolete with SuSE 8.1 ?.

Catimimi.

Hope to get valuable hints from you :-)

Thannks in advance.

No, it is still required. Did you run lilo after making the changes to lilo.conf?

Please trim unnecessary content, old sig's, etc from your posts and avoid TOFU.

I'm not sure what you mean. I answered Catimimi@libertysurf.fr and have erased the first send infos. I cannot see what YOU mean. TOFU. And you have to transkate that. It cannot be found in any diary.

Gang, Going back into the dim dark ages of email, circa 1991, the program POPMail, wonderfully DOS-based, used to quote a message and put you in edit mode AT THE TOP, which is where most people will look first. For example, no matter whether I'm using Evolution, Outlook (yes, I do use it sometimes, to sync with my e740 PDA), or a web-based email system, they ALL stick you at the top of the quoted text. The intelligent thing to do, which seems to be lost on many people, is to then edit out excess quoting (i.e. don't quote a whole 200 line email to just add "I agree", and also to INTELLIGENTLY quote... i.e. if I wish to reply to a certain point in the original email, I would edit all before that point, and place my reply AFTER the quote, thus even allowing the OS-challenged to follow the thread of a conversation. This CRAP about boit top-posting is just that - complete and utter CRAP. My wife sorts her email from the oldest at the top to the newest at the bottom - I do it the other way around so, as soon as I open whatever email program I'm currently using, I see the NEW stuff immediately. Can we PLEASE drop the "top posting is against the RFC's" thread, and just get back to the real purpose of this mailinglist - HELPING EACH OTHER !! Jon

That is good. Participate in this list and put aside your anger. By the way, are you a Dane? If so, I know good Norwegian jokes to cheer you up with. As my son would say, "Be cool , be happy". :))))

Hi That is excactly what the purpose of this should be. And as I said before, this is perhaps the best list in the whole world, so we should all be very proud of ourselves! Jaska.

Its a very good list, I confess too. I have been very glad being here all the time. I'll give as much help that I can, but I'm not sa experienced, but will try to avoid basic questions. Unfortunately since most of my questions are really basci related -- Med venlig hilsen - Best regards - vy73 de OZ4KK.

No HTML mail? I don't want to remember. The past didn't use to be funny. a. Jonathan Nichols escreveu:

Hey, some might consider those the "Good ol' days" of email. No HTML mail, no spam, no chain letters. Just useful information... usually. :-)
