What do you mean by LAN Browser??? What exactly are you looking towards?

You can mount your hdd using

#mount -t filesystem-type -o rw /dev/hdX /your-mount-point

Your InputDevice section seems to be alright...did you try and restart X?

Tux.

The mouse thing didnt work like thateither :(

detpenguin 05-01-2005 11:53 PM

if you have 2 harddrives...the second drive would be /dev/hdb

depending on what is on the other hdd, you'll need to know what the filesystem is, such as FAT32 or NTFS or a linux system....

this is my mouse info...

# Identifier and driver

Identifier "Mouse1"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Buttons" "5"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"

did you restart X after editing it? and are you editing it as root?

Eugney 05-01-2005 11:57 PM

yes both but maybe its because im useing ps/2 ima try to use IMPS/2

Eugney 05-02-2005 12:01 AM

I changed it to imps/2 and now it works :D now one more question anyone knopw how i can change my root password

and to format HdC1

detpenguin 05-02-2005 12:05 AM

change your root password by loggin in as root and at the prompt typing passwd, and that will walk you through changing it...

you can format hdc1 using cfdisk...open a terminal as root, type:

cfdisk /dev/hdc


*edit

the command to change the password is "passwd"
