Yeye man you want the kind awuf wey redhat give you gnome and KDE 2gether on the same os . Kubuntu is based on KDE alone, for you 2 get gnome you'll have 2 install Ubuntu or better still you install gnome (Ubuntu) and download and install latest KDE at kde-look.org. if you get any cool site for KDE enhancement do let me know brotherman. Hey iron lady (Fisayo) where you hide all these while, men see as she just sound refreshed, describe d place 4 me make me sef go gbadun my life.Thanks 4 d stuffs girl. cheerio

Hey everybody where is Fisayo i command you by thunder and fire come out of your hiding place   . Fisayo where you @.

If it were 2 be error message by the browser it will still be good at least i'll know am on the right track. Xp keeps asking for the driver which i fed the companion cd into d cd rom it said my driver was loaded and i was happy for 2 ask for the driver every time i connect d phone 2 d system which if i tried repeating d above step it gave me some kind of rubbish error i search for the modem manually from d device manager but all was just a nightmare. Thanks brotherman further assistance will be appreciated.

Am not just using the internet service even before Vmobile started dishing out internet service thats what my phone uses and it was configured at Vshop at Ikeja and all my post in this nairaland is done wit my phone. I tried configuring it but thing did not just go my way so i'll like an advance explanation on how to in about it.

Too bad how 2 of u Adewale & Fisayo turn me a Ogree or monster. You know its like after reading linux myth my thinking change on how people condem something. Adewale if  have wronged you in anyway am truely sorry please (omode l'on se mi). I am a learner like all of us not in anyway a don as Fisayo puts it, by the way see Fisayo who is talkin i read all your post and was tripped. Hmm, you're such a geek. I need 2 learn from u, so when is the tutorial gonna commence       seriously now am planning 2 dump redhat but i need 2 know 2 compile softwares i.e software installation both open source and non open source any suggestions will be highly welcomed and after i will install suse so that u always help me out of my problems. Adewale, Brotherman please i need all the procedure you use in configuring your phone with your system maybe that will help me cause i do all posting and surfing with my phone alone. Post the configuration steps both in linux and windows my phone is Sagem mys-7 thanks Adewale & once again am sorry to have talked that way. Cheerio.

Chxta whats up pal. Thanks for the site and your concern bout helping your fellow brother thanks man.The problem with main board driver is with my cd rewritter which i bought new early last year is starting 2 Bleep up have been able 2 solve that. But the problem with linux still persist that is how 2 compile a downloaded program like Mplayer, AMORAK or realplayer in linux. I can across some stuffs like ./ configure make make install. The distro is red hat ver. 9 any help i will appreciate. All those that have use red hat or have a red hat base distro come 2 my rescue am fed up of windows.

hi, pal been busy all there while. Concerning the wazobia why not go 2 www.distrowatch.com and see if you'll be able 2 do something or in to the news section of that linux site and click on the foreign newspaper that link takes you 2 a site where you'll have the option of downloading the live cd. will check out the link 4 u later. cheerio

Lazy windows user just because u did not understand how linux rendered your phone so that is why you conclude linux may never catch up windows. I use a windows mobile 2003se smartphone,  windows xp does not even have a native driver 4 it as a usb device not 2 talk of detecting my modem plus windows mediaplayer does not see it, you know copy to device option.You call vactive wap a dial up? So stop criticising am a windows power user and have used linux for quite a while now. Have worked with 98 upward both as an engineer and desktop publisher and knows their limitations. Stop criticising linux.     

Please nairalander need some lifeline on installation issues on windows xp and linux. I just reformatted my hard drive and after all basic installation i wanted 2 load d sound and vga driver and nero but it freezes, hang and shut down explorer until i eject d cd or do all kind of rubbish and my rewritter make a cracking noise any time i tried running these softwares and all other software works  except nero and mainboard driver and all these had worked 4 bou
t 2 years.The board name is mecury with via samual c3 processor 800 mhz. Please how do i install AMORAK OR real player in linux redhat ver 9 one popular @ otigba please i intend 2 download one of these 2 to a flash drive because d only thing i use windows 4 is for mp3 which i can't do wit my linux please as there 2 player support video & mp3 please how do i go bout d only installation urgent solution
needed please earthlings.

You know am a new convert of linux and have been using it from 2004 redhat linux that is very common @ otigba verson 9 shrike. have learn alot from chxa, neotiny, niggy etc but chxa even has a topic about ubuntu which i ordered some CD which is yet to arrived anyway but non of you is ever talking about our own WAZOBIA LINUX why? is the live cd not available or what. I wanted 2 download it then but non of d cafe in sango has cd writter & i mail them 2 send it that last year that i'll pay 4 the postal service but heard nothin 4ron them & i saw its is enlisted at Distrowatch and i think if its not relevant they would not have put it there. www.wazobialinux.com. All the pros feed me back and let me know d latest bout the os.

its so funny who some of u guys are still thinkin it shows that most are not engineer. now back 2 d issue of win 98 i dont know how you guys are using yours thats making it 2 crash so easily i've gotten mine 4 like 2 years now with heavy use & havin 2 change my power supply (pack) thrice i have never 4 once formatted os re-installed my os. win xp is easy 2 troubleshoot & install  4 a layman just boot from ur cd & repair but in win 98 even if u boot from start up disk u still need 2 enter some command line.  prone 2 series of problem like lost IO.SYS, misplaced mbr etc. may not see sound, VGA etc in some systems and if u use 2000 & xp reverse is d case is not even plug and play os eg flash drive most manufacturers dont even include d flash installation cd. ms no longer provide support for win 9x  

its so funny how most of u guys love awuf well the laptop in question cannot be used alone as in it need some sort of mesh network positioned into the space & its not some type that u can just pop a cd rom into & start doin stuffs. Its a gadget or some sort of miniature of laptop not capable of any real job. I read it sometimes ago that those coming 2 west africa will run Wazobia  Linux you know its an open source thing. So don't be this-illusioned. go 2 otigba wit dat amount add little money u'll bring home correct p3 pc. cheerio

well dondele i dont know what software failure gat 2 fm wit hardware u're just arguing IBM thinkpad is just d best and plus their one button rapid rescue in case of data loss, superb battery life of about 5.5 hours in some model just 2 mention but a few.
