Couple Questions
I just Installed Slackware 10, and have a few problems:
When I choose to open "home" it opens in Konquer, I am using Gnome. I have no audio at all. How do I get my scroll wheel on my mouse to work, and Can I install the drivers for my video card on linux like I do in windows, I want to get a 1 step higher resolution, I have 1024x768 Thanks |

I am using a wireless microsoft mouse, the sounds working, the video card is raedon 7500, and why would gnome use konquerer at all?

I'm guessing Gnome would default to Konqueror if you didn't install Nautilus in the package selection during setup (if it's an option in Slack setup which I would have to assume it is).
Slackware10 has switched to XOrg (from Xfree86) as it's X server. From a console, run xorgconfig as root, this should enable you to define your mouse properly and hopefully fix your video driver and resolution issue (assuming your monitor actually supports higher resolutions). |
