Hi, I'm completely new to the *nix scene, been using windows for 8 years, but recently decided to try Mandrake 9.1. So, I've installed it onto my old machine (specs to follow), but I have trouble getting onto the net. I dont know ANYTHING about how to configure it on a linux OS
linux system specs:
416mhz Celeron
320mb ram
nVidia TNT2 32mb
ENSONIQ PCI sound
DEC DE-500 NIC
main rig specs:
xp 2000+
Gigabyte GA-7VAXP
256mb ddr266
ATI Radeon 9000 PRO 128mb
using built-in sound card (AC'97)
using built-in NIC (Realtek 8139)
winxp pro SP1
internet:
3.1mbps/180kbps cable (static IP, but it changes about once a month)
Belkin router
Also, I've been wondering if I could share files between my main rig (winxp) and my linux rig?
P.S.
I go to another forum called Quake3World (I need 5 more posts in order to post URLs laff) so feel free to visit me there
