a few Q's for a linux beginner I have recently began using Fedora 6 on my laptop and on one of my pc's at home because I'm so tired of windows and want to expand my knowledge. Because this is new territory for me, I'm having issues. I have had two problems I don't know how to solve.
One is that I was trying to install vmware for my laptop and after I did, I went to the terminal and tried to configure the program. I got an error and was instructed to reinstall it. I tried to reinstall but I keep getting the same message of a missing file. I wanted to know how to completely remove vmware so that I can try again.
The next question is for my pc. After I finished installing and updating everything, for some reason I am having problems booting correctly. I guess with linux you have two or three different kernels to utilize, but the main kernel it normally loads won't boot. It seems to freeze in the very beginning. If I use the alternate one, I can get in just fine. Is there something that I can do to repair the other kernel? Am I even correct in saying that that is the Kernel?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. |
