Excuse my absence, I've been real busy of late (for about a month) and haven't had time to check up on the list often or provide solutions. I am back (sort of, I have to still get my internet back up soon ...that will be Oct 1) I plan on downloading the latest mandrake distribution and testing LimeWire with this to find any problems and provide solutions. I wish I wasn't so "blind" right now but I am currently over my best friend's house and he is a die hard M$ user (though he denies it) and I sit here helpless without any real OS before me at this moment. Suffering, I endure so that I may revisit one of my favorite forums and provide solutions where ever possible. I must remain strong because when Oct 1 come, I will be busily upgrading all my systems and reconfiguring them so that I can best develop with a "super" multi-booted system with Windows XP (There is work to be done here and support that isn't yet provided by linux), mandrake 9.0, mandrake cooker, gentoo, crux, and linuxfromscratch (cvs). I currently only have it presently multi-booted with everything except crux and gentoo. I wonder if I should share a tutorial on how to do this or is this common knowledge or in a manual somewhere?
