Is it possible to setup a proxy server with my proxy account(ex. user=john password=qwerty)? I want to share my connection without other users needing my username and password. How do i setup a proxy server with this account? Thanks.

Removing FC 6

chris_pops
So I want to remove Fedora Core 6 and reinstall Windows XP Pro so that other people in my house can use it. The main issue here is that I can't seem to get rid of Grub, or I can't replace it with the Windows boot.

updating - what components best?

david54755
I'm about to update my old HP Pentium 900 with a new motherboard, graphics card, modem, and memory. I will be running Linux and XP (I do NOT want to to do Vista) probably Suse or Ubuntu. I would appreciate any advice about components that are most compatible.

x org problem

shazamtwix
hey guys, so this is pretty ridiculous. i sometimes have problems with alsa recognizing my sound card (integrated into the mobo), so i decided somehow that it was a good idea to uninstall the fedora 6's alsa drivers.

Kubuntu only prints @PJL commands

petelynch
I used KMenu> System Settings> Printers to set up my Brother hl1240 laser printer. I use the foomatic hl1250 (as recommended). I go through all the steps ok and it prints out what I thought was a test page during the setup wizard and I finish.

Display annoyance

bardoksan
OK, here's a really strange problem. I just installed a new Radeon X1650 Pro card, and it works fine except one little glitch. In linux (Mandriva 2007), my monitor displays this box that says input not recognized that floats around the desktop.

bloodpuppy
I'm thinking of increasing my swap partition, which is easy enough. but I've recently read up on how to also make a swap file. I was wondering; what are the pros and cons of using a swap file vs a swap partition?.
