Need help with my "boot proccess"(FC5), AcerTravelMate4602WLMifreezes

Mon Apr 10 11:59:30 UTC 2006

Hi!!
First of all I want to say thanks to you Craig for help.
And everyone else's help will bee gratefully accepted!!! ^_^
I've all the things as you told me. But there is some little "spikes" that 
are still left.
1) My FC5 boot perfectly, with "OK" word at all lines.
2) I still have the "PCI: Cannot allocate resourse region 7 of bridge 
0000:00:1c.0" lines out there on my screen, I don't know what does it mean 
but I really want to discover.
3) as for "tail /var/log/messages" when I've entered this command the answer 
I got, was "the folder not found"... any ideas why is it so, and how can I 
view my logs at rescue mode if I don't have this folder?
4) When I logged on to my KDE, firstly I tried to set up some internet 
gateway trough my PC computer. It was easy... but when Itried to enter 
"ifconfig eth0" command it said that command was not found. So here is my 
question:"How do I enable commands?"
5) Finnaly, I asking for some referense about the programs which can let me 
to see the shared folders between two PC's, in windows<--->linux scheme and 
linux<-->linux one. Now I have win XP installed on my PC computer and linux 
at laptop. so what do need to use with this kind of sceme? I tried samba but 
as I couldn't actually understand what this program is suit for? I just want 
to see some shared files of linux machine at win XP and inside out.

Thnx again for helping!!!! :))))

Ivan.
