Install ATI DVD Drivers

For the Radeon All-in-Wonder 9000



  1. Start at the ATI
    Drivers
    and Downloads page
    .

  2. Read ATI
    Software Download and Installation Instructions

  3. Download href="http://ati.com/support/drivers/winxp/radeonwdm-xp.html?type=xp&prodType=graphic&prod=productsXPdriver&submit.x=13&submit.y=5&submit=GO%21">CATALYST
    Windows XP 3.10 - Driver Download

  4. Download new software for the href="http://ati.com/support/drivers/winxp/radeonopt-xp.html?type=xp&prodType=mm&prod=aiwWINXPdriver&submit.x=14&submit.y=6">Radeon
    All-In-Wonder 9000 on Windows XP
    .



Optional


Install for Windows XP:


NFS on Casper

Ran redhat-config-nfs from ssh command line.


For reference, check out the Linux
NFS-HOWTO
on The
Linux Documentation Project website
.



On Casper, the file server, we added to /etc/exports the following
line:


/home/net/               192.168.1.1/255.255.255.0(rw,sync)

Note: we used redhat-config-nfs to do this.


Then, on the Linux client, we added the following line to /etc/fstab:




192.168.1.23:/home/net /home/casper nfs rsize=8192,wsize=8192,nosuid,soft 0 0

But, I can't write files with my "neilj" login. I created a new
login and made sure the user ID matched on both machines.

Mozilla Plug-ins for Linux

Mozilla Plug-ins for Linux


Use Help > About Plug-ins
to open about:plugins


Click on http://plugindoc.mozdev.org/
or go to Linux directly.


Where is your plugin directory? First, start Mozilla. Then, in a
terminal, enter:


$ ps aux | grep moz
$ cd </path/to/mozilla-bin>
$ ls plugins


Important: if you don't see
a plugins directory, you have two choices:



  1. Install the plugins in ~/.mozilla/plugins

  2. Root creates a new plugins directory in the same directory as
    mozilla-bin, and installs plugins there.
