Anyone here have ut2003 installed? I need some help installing it. It will ask for the cd to be mounted so i unmount and then mount the drive again and that will seem to fix the problem but the installer will just sit there and do nothing. If i disable supermount the cd rom will lock up and then nothing will see it and i cant even eject the cd

I have looked all over the net for help. All of the fixes i found just indicated to disable supermount but that still doesnt fix my problem. Anyone have any idea whats going on???

Im on mandrake 9.2 btw

Try this before you start the installer
export SETUP_CDROM=/mnt/cdrom

the installer looks at some odd place for the cdrom by default (/cdrom I think) if you add this line (if that is where your cdrom is) it should mount and unount the disks for you

i installed the ati drivers. They also tainted my kernel, what ever that is...:confused:

It's just a warning that you installled a kernel module that isn't under the GPL. It's not a problem, really. Now you should just change your XF86Config to reflect the new driver. I don't know what the details of the ATI drivers are, but when installing my NVIDIA drivers I had to change 'nv' to 'nvidia' in the video device section.

I think that running fglrxconfig will allow you to configure the ATI drivers. But make a backup copy of /etc/X11/XF86Config and /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 first, because fglrxconfig overwrites them IIRC.

I really wish I knew about this. I was having so much difficulties installing the drivers yesterday that I had to re-install my OS because no KDE popped out. Heck not even sax2 was working.

I have no luck installing ATI's driver at all.
