Hello to everybody.
I started working with linux at version 0.97 (the old SLS relase and MCC
release).
Now things are getting a litle more easy and rich but I have a few problem
I would like to solve.
I am running slink 2.1r3 with a 2.2.14 kernel and I have a
486DX4 with a Trident TGUI9440AGI 1Mb memory and an old VGA monitor
(monochrome TARGA TM1410).
1) While in W95 I can run 640x480 in XFree3.3.2.3
I must run 640x400 otherwise a part of the screen goes out the monitor
I tried vidtune but no way. With 640x400 it uses a dotclock of 25.18.
I include the starting message with mode 640x400
2) I tried to replace exim with qmail but I could not configure the
MTA because when unpacked it complains about the host name which is
not fully qualified. How could install it for a machine with no
permanent link but which connect to a ISP ? I installed also ucsp
and serial mail.
3) When I switched from 2.0.36 my ide CDROM was changed from 36X to 24X
and I do not understand why.
Thank you very much
