Can anyone advice me on the following problems: 1. When using X Window I was unable to use CD-ROM drive and Floppy drive. I tried to auto mount them by clicking on CDROM and Floppy icons, but I got an error message, and saying that it had to be done manually (I have to show a path?) Also, I could not get the internet to work (I have dialup connection) 2. How should I install my CR-ROM drive, Floppy drive, printer and scanner? Which application should I use to install them? 3. Can someone let me know where should I go in X Window and which drivers use to each of them. Please let me know in step by step instructions My computer specifications are as follows: - Pentium II 266, - Asus P2B Motherboard - 64 MB 00 MHz SDRAM DIMM (Single Stick) - Microsoft IntelliMouse - Mitsumi 1.44MB 3.5" Floppy Drive - Maxtor DiamondMax 6.8GB (model 90680D4) - Sony 32x IDE CD-ROM Drive (model CDU701) - ATI Expert @ Work, 8MB AGP (01)0072741940210 (21)06826 01771 - Creative Ensoniq Audio PCI Sound Card (9817) Assy no; 01 Rev: C - US Robotics 56k v.90 Fax/Modem with Voice (Sporster) (21ME23B85N97 66174900) - HP 1100 laserjet - HP scanjet 4200C I will appreciate any help peter
