Hi again!
Remeber the ol'
lsmod thing? It's part and parcel of the same package. They are all console commands, but you can put it in the file
/etc/modules. You'll need to be root in order to edit the file, and you only need to put the module name in there... one per line.
Don't be affraid of kernel compiling. It's honestly not as hard as it seems. The only thing you need to remember is to
read absolutely everything, regardless of whether you think you won't need it.
You installed EB? You'll probably find that it has been installed to somewhere like
/usr/bin/everybuddy (or /usr/local/bin/everybuddy). Since you installed it via RPM (did you use the RPM that came on the Mandy 9 CDs?), you might find it under Menu --> Networking --> Instant Messaging (sp?). If in doubt, you can always open a console and just type
everybuddy.
Having all daughter windows staying in the same place, eh? I think that the option you'll be looking for is something like 'display windows in same pane as parent'... or something. It'll be in the Gnome settings somewhere... I think
Keyboard shortcuts... any in particular? They're usually called 'bindings', so you might have some luck looking for that. Unless you're talking about when using a console, in which case... what do you mean?
WINE with Mandy 9... don't do it! I'm pretty sure that Mandy 9 does come with a WINE package, but if I were you, I'd not install that one, but instead go to
WineHQ and download the latest version, and follow the links to some very good documentation! Be warned, however, that unless you're seriously into tinkering, Wine won't load most of your software. If you're into games, then have a look around for WineX... and if you're into Office, then take a peek at Crossover (or just go for OpenOffice
).
And finally... Thymox takes a bow. Thank you for the appraisal, but don't sweat it. Community is what makes Linux what it is (if that makes sense). When I started I got plenty of help from
here, and the more I learned, the more I could help others. Apart from the whole symlinking your /home/src to /usr/src bit, most of it was in the Readme... if a little garbled. Again, thanks for the appraisal, though. Glad to have been of assistance.
HTH.
