Hey there guys, here's a question from a newly. Just bought a brand new Seagate 17.2 gig hard drive and installed Suse Linux 6.3 on a 486 computer, took me like about 12 hours to do a straight installation of all packages. Worth the wait I tell you all. first question When I boot to Linux as user root, and start my x server I see all the available programs installed on the system, but on some instances I see where I have for instance a program folder called applixware and when I go into it I see all the programs in there but they don't open at all, and this seem to happen with allot of other programs as well. can someone in the list please tell me what I may have been overlooking second question I sniffed around in my system and went ahead to configure my system to boot to a graphical mode instead of ansci, and now I can't get it to boot to ansci now that I'm ready to. I have some literature here with me and I read them and try to make as much sense of them as I can. I was reading "Suse Linux unleashed" and I cant find anything in it that would have told me what to do. can someone direct me to a config file that I can edit or to tell me what possible solutions there are. Third question How can I change user root's username. Fourth question I have installed a 32mb of ram on the 486 system and I now need to increase my swap file system since I carelessly took all the defaults during the installation. How can I increase this swap filesystem without damaging the whole of hda3's system. thnx guys for all your help cause I know you all will help a poor little newbie out ********************************************************************** This e-mail and any attachment contains information which is private and confidential and is intended for the addressee only.
