 How can I view FAT32 partition from LINUX?
 Where I can change screen resolution and refresh freg.?
 It seems to me that the LINUX work to slow , is there some way to
speed up LINUX?

Sto se tice rezolucije klikni na sistem settings/display ili tako
nesto u glavnom meniju. Ja imam C-Media 8738 i za nju je imao drajver
ali za modem (imam isti ko tvoj) nema tako da javi mi molim te ako
nadjes drajver za modem. Linux bi trebalo da cita sa FAT32 particije
bez problema, ja za sada koristim particion magic za prebacivanje
dokumenata sa ntfs na linux particiju dok ne napravim nesto. Plasim se
da brljam sa particijama zbog boot loadera.
Molim te mi reci ako nadjes drajver za jebeni lucent :)

By mounting the partition. It will go something like this:

mount -t vfat /dev/hda1 /mnt/win

Your vfat fs will then exist under /mnt/win.

Just typing this verbatim you are unlikely to meet with success.
It assumes /mnt/win exists ('mkdir /mnt/win' if it doesn't) and
that /dev/hda1 is your vfat partition. You can edit /etc/fstab
once you've got it nailed to mount automatically at boot.

1. RH 8: System Settings=>Display. OR
2. Edit /etc/X11/XF86Config (being new, I don't recommend this)

By overclocking the CPU ;)

Read the RH documentation and try to set up the devices before assuming
you need to download modules.  If not...

Read associated howtos at http://www.tldp.org.  This site is your friend.
If these devices weren't recognized at boot adding support can be a
non-trivial task, but it all begins with reading the manuals.

Much fine documentation comes with your linux product.

Ako nadjem nesto javicu ti.
 Hvala ti na ovim uputstvima , ako mi nesto bude nejasno pitacu te preko mejla.
 
 
 

1. Red Hat 7.1 - Installing Red Hat packages after Red Hat is already installed.

How can I install packages that I forgot to install with the Red Hat
7.1 installation?

Here's my problem:
Various pieces of Red Hat keep saying that I am missing a file and
that it needs to be installed with a certain package (namely most of
the Kontrol Panel).  But I have been unsuccessful at finding where
this is done.  I am still a newbie with Linux, but I would assume that
there should be an "Add/Remove Programs" equivalent with Linux.

Please help!

2. sendmail config problems?
