@cebu_tux: what distro(s) na imo natestingan sa P2 nga ok ang performance sa computer?

With P2 pcs... maingon lang gyud nako nga ayaw gamit og heavy weight window managers like Gnome and KDE. Better off with Xfce and other light weight window managers... Also current OpenOffice will be too sluggish. Mas better ang other Office packages... Daghan man lightweight Office packages.

[cebu_tux]

Pwede na siguro thin clients na lang para sa P2 unya sa server na lang ang heavy load para mas barato... But this is kung sa network enviro

@rhacieboy: Using 2005. But powerpack 2006 hapit na. Oh and by the way SuSE 10 is already final not alpha. But hulat ko sa pro cuz lahi ra gyud ang pro

hinay man mo browse sa network ang mandriva 2006 bai. this is just based on my observation. medyo dugay mo load compared sa mandrake 10.1 nga ako pod natestingan. Ang OpenOffice, hinay gyud lagi ni mo load sa? Layo ra gyud sila sa MS Office. Hapit na pod mahuman ako Suse 10. Naa pa diay professional version umaabot aning mandriva?

wew... salamat sa makadaghan....
one more question: i`m having trouble intalling my nvidia gforce 4 mx, the installer says cant find compliant kernel. what does ti mean? tnx in advance

Which installer? That of the NVIDIA?

Generally, you have to recompile the driver to work with your kernel. You need the NVIDIA installer AND the Linux kernel source code. If you're using CentOS, the RPM packages required are kernel and kernel-sourcecode. Both of these must be installed first. The NVIDIA installer will attempt to recompile a driver for your kernel.

Take note that every time you install a new kernel, you must update the kernel-sourcecode package and recompile the NVIDIA driver.

I've been doing this for the past -1/2 now. A small hassle, but it's not too bad.

After uninstalation of linux, I formatted my disk in FAT32 format and restore the ghost image of my previous windows OS. I wonder why the GRUB loader is still on my start-up. Pls tell me how to remove this GRUB loader in the start-up. The windows cannot load because of this GRUB loader in the start-up. thanks!

Peace! Simplest way is to boot from a windows rescue disk and type fdisk/mbr.

God bless!
