Q. I have HP 2133 with SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 10. I need help connecting to wireless internet. I have tried everything. I've clicked everything that say "Network" but when I attempt to browse the web, I am still not connected. Can someone help me?
A. iwconfig is the package that u need im not sure which package manager Suse uses u may prosper from determining what chipset ur mobo is using on the wireless NIC, usually either broadcom or intel, and u should visit the Suse site wiki and search for supported wireless cards, the drivers may be built in or u may be able to retrieve with package manager,,u may or may not be able to use ur wireless card,, u should be able to as linux includes drivers for many devices, u may even be able to use ndiswrapper to use a windows driver and inf file to use the device,, all depends on the card and if the drivers are available to u, for most normal cards they are there, u would use iwconfig like ifconfig to configure the wireless interface and query for info,, there are other apps in repos for browsing wireless networks etc, u usually need to edit a network conf file or rc.conf file to allow the interface to come up at boot with the proper config, this can be done once and last til the system dies on redhat it's /etc/sysconfig/networkscripts i've seen like /etc/network/network.conf i think on Ubuntu which is debian based,,, not sure for Suse though, probably very similar, when u make the changes to the conf files u can just restart networking /etc/init.d/network restart from the command u can test connectivity by pinging outward to the internet like google.com or yahoo.com if u receive a response ur online,,,
Is there a Windows XP equivalent of the Linux Desktop Workspaces ?
Q. In Linux desktops, there is a notion of multiple workspaces. These workspaces reduce the cluttering of active applications. In Windows, often too many applications are shown in the start bar that it gets too confusing to identify which application is which.
For example, one may open several Word document. On the start bar, the user could only see a lot of active Word application running. Therefore, there is no quick way of getting to the right instance of Word quickly. Segregating the intances into different workspaces would help as in Linux.

A. I know the kind of thing you mean, I remember that from using UNIX at Uni. Anyway, there's no way to do that with XP 'out of the box' but there's a Powertoy written by MS themselves called "Virtual Desktop Manager" that gives you up to four virtual dekstops. I haven't tried it myself but it's free and worth a shot.
How to download Redhat Linux Enterprise Desktop free?
Q. Please tell me how to and from where to download Redhat Linux Enterprise Desktop for free. As it is an open source software, the source code has to be available. I heard they are giving the rpm packages of the source. If yes, how do I download it and how do I compile it? What's the difference if I purchase Redhat or compile it from source? Help PLzzz.
A. Unlike most Linux distros. Red Hat itself does not come free of charge
