Jerry,
Be sure to find the sound mixer and turn the volume up, it comes default at 'off'.
Ya, I made sure of the volume before I tested the sound. In fact, when I ran the Control Center sound option I had to turn the volume up to hear the sound EVEN though the volume slider in the CC sound option was at 95 percent, so the two are not sharing information.
Please check how FDISK detects your Iomega Zip drive; a few of us who have removable media drives are getting erroronious output from FDISK, which prevents mounting.
I've run into that before with my Zip100. It depends how you access your drive: sda or sda4. For vfat disks it sda4 but I have used ext2 on sda and got almost all of the drive, not just 96MB. JLK
I have ADSL here on a w98 pc and proxy to my SuSE machines; I had to do it this way to please the ADSL provider.
Isn't that aggravating! Why should they care how one end of a TCP/IP connect looks like. They should just take care of their end. JLK
Best of luck ...........................Pete VC

I put the beast togehter and gave YaST2 the first (and only, so far) shot at installing SuSE 7.1 It couldn't detect the z52 printer, but I have the dirver rpm, so I'll install it later. It detected the soundblaster, which was a peripheral card, BUT also the onboard sound chip system, so sound didn't work. I deleted the first sound driver and the test button gave the startup music (That 18 watt woofer really gives a thump!), but when I put a music CD in the drive no sound would come out. I checked that the audio wire from the CD to the sound blaster was connected. And, I haven't got the Zip250 running yet. Also, I have yet to connect the NIC to my wifes machine, which is connected to the ADSL and will be my only way out to the internet.
The fun begins! :) JLK
