Hi all,

More and more people I talk to about Mandrake are interested in trying 
it out. Now, I'd like them to be able to try it out without having to 
install 220MB of updates once it's installed (they're all mainly on 
dial-up).
Would it be possible to re-package the ISO with the updates included 
and/or point me towards instructions to tell me how to make the new 
ISO (with included updates) myself?? I have a broadband connection and 
wouldn't mind doing it.

Cheers,

 PD. Yep, whoeved decided at LG that reusing for UPLOAD_FIRMAWARE

 SO it turns out to be a firmware bug after all that.  I really hope you
 guys  don't take the heat for this in the court of public opinion.

bg /. posted a really badly researched post on this (with a bad title too),
bg but it seems public opinion is that hardware shouldn't be vulnerable.

bg It wouldn't hurt though to have an official position sent to /., I think
bg they should reasonably update the summary to indicate that this is a
bg hardware issue that would also affect other users, and hopefully push the
bg availability of updates and how to use them.

Ok, official stance (will sent to slashdot):

It is not related with linux specially, it can happens in Windows
also.  It is more, you can search and find that people are also having
problems in windows.

Problem: sending a FLUSH_COMMAND to an LG drive kills it.

Expected output: Ignore the command/return one error.  FLUSH_COMMAND
support is not required.

Real Problem:  not having implemented this command is ok, but reusing
it for anything else is against the specs.  It appears that LG decided
to reuse this command for modifying the firmware.

Hope this helps, Juan.

There is no offical pdf support in ggv anymore, so why should one configure it
as a pdf viewer? OK, you still can view pdf files with ggv, but it can be
removed in a future version of ggv. If gpdf cannot print, this is another bug.

Actually this is very bad thing to do. You should use at least 3 servers

OK, I understand.

However, the fact that gpdf cannot print is not a bug but a missing feature.
There is no printing support in gpdf, and this is very problematic for a pdf
viewer...
Thus, I think that it was too early to push ggv in favor of gpdf.
For next version of mandrake, gpdf will probably be ready but it is not yet.

Anyway, it is not so important and will be fix in next mandrake.
I change thus the resolution as won't fix.

[Cooker] ADSL + postfix default config = open relay?

2003-10-27 Thread Bruno Prior
My ISP has just pointed out to me that I was running an open relay, 
which is highly embarrassing. I have been running postfix without 
causing a problem until I switched to an ADSL connection. The notes in 
postfix/main.cf seem to make it pretty clear what the problem is: my 
ISP's subnet had been added as a trusted subnet, as ADSL counts as a 
dialup connection, which meant that anyone on their network could relay 
through my mail server.

Obviously, the fault is principally mine, for not being more careful 
when I set ADSL up - the information is all there if you look for it. 
But I was wondering how many people would look for it. Because, if you 
setup ADSL using drakconnect, you wouldn't have a clue you needed to 
edit main.cf to prevent this. Would it be a good idea to either enhance 
drakconnect to make this change automatically (if you could figure out a 
sensible way to deduce the appropriate list of trusted clients), or at 
least flag up a warning, to stop other people making this mistake?

Well, updates always work better if your urpmi sources have hdlists
(which are in base/) ...

 Anyway mandrakesecure.net imply that I need this key

 so ...

Or the one on the base of the CD, but they are no longer imported
automatically the way they were before (at install time), since:
1)rpm now uses it's own keystore, and not root's gpg keyring as in the
past, so gpg can no longer import the keys.
2)urpmi now manages keys per-source, so if people do things the expected
way (ie not remove files from their mirrors), everything works.

The mandrakesecure.net documentation does need to relect this though.

I just find it a bit unfortunate that you criticise everything first,
complaining that things are broken, before checking your own setup.

Re: [Cooker] ADSL + postfix default config = open relay?

2003-10-27 Thread Buchan Milne
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Bruno Prior wrote:
 My ISP has just pointed out to me that I was running an open relay,
 which is highly embarrassing. I have been running postfix without
 causing a problem until I switched to an ADSL connection. The notes in
 postfix/main.cf seem to make it pretty clear what the problem is: my
 ISP's subnet had been added as a trusted subnet, as ADSL counts as a
 dialup connection, which meant that anyone on their network could relay
 through my mail server.

But, who added that?

 Obviously, the fault is principally mine, for not being more careful
 when I set ADSL up - the information is all there if you look for it.
 But I was wondering how many people would look for it. Because, if you
 setup ADSL using drakconnect, you wouldn't have a clue you needed to
 edit main.cf to prevent this.

drakconnect doesn't touch main.cf

 Would it be a good idea to either enhance
 drakconnect to make this change automatically (if you could figure out a
 sensible way to deduce the appropriate list of trusted clients), or at
 least flag up a warning, to stop other people making this mistake?

By default, the important postfix settings are:

$ cp /etc/postfix/main.cf.rpmnew /tmp/main.cf
$ /usr/sbin/postconf -c /tmp mynetworks inet_interfaces relay_domains
mydestination
mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8
inet_interfaces = localhost
relay_domains = $mydestination
mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain

So, by default you shouldn't even be able to get a connection to postfix
unless you have manually changed mynetworks, or used some tool which
does so. drakconnect can't take responsibility for every single possible
configuration that may depend on it's settings.

Ideally we need a configuration tool which can find such issues, but
it's not drakconnect, and it needs to be very user friendly (and not do
things automatically). But I don't think this is your problem.

Maybe if you can try and find out what had changed any of the important
settings, we can take a look, but I don't see how either the default
postfix config or drakconnect are responsible.

Buchan

 jos == Jos  [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:

Hi

jos Yes, it is a firmware bug, and yes, the LG drives are responsible for this. 
jos But, it is Mandrakes own fault that this happens. 

Yes.  And we are also the cause of all the evil things in the world.

jos If you take beta / heavy modified kernels instead of kernels that
jos have been tested by the entire linux community, you can expect
jos things like these to happen.

yes?  And guess what.  When one new feature is talked about being
integrated into upstream kernel, one of the best ways of backing it is
that it has been included during quite time in distributions, and that
it don't show problems there.

jos True, strange that this bug was able to tunnel trough all RCs,
jos but this once again proves that it's better to use the entire
jos linux community as testers instead of a few beta testers,
jos i.e. use only stock kernels.

That is good if the functionality of stock kernel is ok for you.
Examples:

- you only use sound for playing some MP3 OSS is ok for you.  If you
  want to do anything interesting with sound, you need ALSA.

- you have a server that is 100km away, you want lm_sensors to read
  the temperatures remotely and detect when fans die.

- you are a company, and you need IPSEC, information as clear text is
  not good enough for you.

- You uses a firewall and thinks that being able to handle IRC
  protocols is a need (until not so far away iptables on kernel
  upstream was not able to tunnel IRC).

- You have new hardware that without ACPI don't works correctly (there
  are hardware like that, specially laptops, and each time more).
  Real ACPI has only been integrated in kernel in 2.4.22.

- You have a nice broadcom network card.  bcm5700 and bcm4400 are a
  lot of times the only drivers supporting your card.

- You think that waiting a lot each time that you start high-IO
  operations is not an option (Andrea VM patches  low latency ones).

- You think that having a CD-RW being able to do more things that only
  copy CD's is a good idea (packet writing).

- and so on, and so on, ...

Notice that mayority of the people don't need all the patches in
Mandrake, they only need 2-3 or 4.  The problem is to have a kernel
that fits lots of people.

jos Mandrake is not a linux distribution known for stability.

This is a bad statement.  If you explain me _why_ you told that, I can
try to fix it.  but with only that sentence, I can't, sorry :(

jos  let's please take 
jos stability as top priority for Mandrake 10.0. This way Mandrake will get the 
jos good name that belongs to such a cool distribution.

Godd goal, I agree with it.  And I do my best to do it.

Hi

marcel While reading slashdot, I found this comment interesting (yes, that does
marcel happen on slashdot :-) )
marcel http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=83579cid=7310813
marcel Why is Linux trying to send a flush cache command to a CD-ROM drive in the
marcel first place? That's a stupid thing to do. The ATAPI FLUSH CACHE command tells
marcel the device to flush its write cache to the media. A CD-ROM has no write cache,
marcel and can't write to any media. Of course, it's even more stupid for a drive to
marcel self-destruct when it gets a flush cache command...

marcel Is this maybe 2 bugs working together? Using FLUSH_CACHE where it shouldn't,
marcel and have the cdrom reading that as UPLOAD_FIRMWARE

Yes. there are two bugs here:

- One, sending FLUSH_CACHE to a CD-ROM drive.  CD-ROM drive decides:
  * do nothing (i.e. it don't have a cache, nothing to do).
  * return an error (Are you stupid, I don't have write capability).
  * return an unimplemented/unknown command

Any of the three returns is ok.  The reason of sending a FLUSH_CACHE
for a CDROM is that way, we can share the CD-ROM and CD-RW code for
packet writing.

- Now the big problem:
*  ATAPI spec states that one CDROM not implementing FLUSH_CACHE
  command is ok, but using that command to do anything else is not
  allowed.

- Problem 2:
  Having any kind of modify firmware command that don't test that the
  payload of the command is a firmware by checksum/signature/etc is
  just the more stupid thing that you can do in hardware world.

[Cooker] [Bug 6231] [GConf] gnucash crashes with new gconf

2003-10-27 Thread [le.berred]
http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6231





--- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2003-10-27 15:15 ---
I was using gnome.

I can access gnucash from KDE (more exactly, I can access gnucash from another
account under kde).

I did not have time to do much testing yesterday night.

On my office MDK9.2 box, updated as well, I do not have that problem (using gnome).
(But I do not use gnucash on it, it is just in the menu to show the application
to friends).

I will check the above procedure tonight.

libGConf2_4-devel-2.4.0.1-2mdk.i586

gnucash no longer starts, it complains that gtkhtml cannot connect to gconfd.
One maybe has to open a report to trigger this? My gnucash opens some reports
upon start.

After downgrading to previous (9.2) GConf stuff and relogin, gnucash works again.



[Cooker] [Bug 6220] [urpmi] New: missing RPMs after updating FTP media

2003-10-27 Thread [fpons]
http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6220

   Summary: missing RPMs after updating FTP media
   Product: urpmi
   Version: 4.4-37mdk
  Platform: Other
OS/Version: All
  Severity: normal
  Priority: P2
 Component: program
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


After installing Cooker (FTP install), and being Installation and Contrib sources 
enabled, 
many packages are available, like Mozilla or OpenOffice. 
But many times, after updating (urpmi.update -a), many many many packages simply 
disappear and aren't unavailable to install, either in text mode urpmi mozilla or 
via the 
graphical Install Software app. And of course, that software isn't installed. 
So I must to remove all media, clean the cache and re-add all media to become the 
software available again. 
 
Thanx!

--- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2003-10-27 16:00 ---
This is problably a problem related to bug 6013, can you test urpmi.update

[Cooker] Kernel and Samba

Hi,

My Samba box stalls after some usage, mapped drives disappear and users
can't write or read from drives. The stalls happen randomly. I'm running

Samba bug? Does anyone know a fix for it? I checked the memory from BIOS,
they didn't report any errors.

I don't think the Cooker mailing list or Bugzilla are the right places to be

Also, I really don't think I need schooling on how to send email.

 *NO*! It seems that normal kernel is even stronger than BOOT

 Please wait for the update kernel, or your drive will be damaged.

BIOS memory check is (mostly) useless. Use memtest86 or similar.

Also, your kernel seems a bit behind, I think current on 9.0 is
2.4.19-32mdk (though I don't think this should make that much difference).

 It appears that DVD's use a different Firmware code than CD's

Then I don't know why my drive died. Maybe it was pure luck, that it

I doubt it's Norman case, but I had the same problem with 9.0 kernel 
coupled with the nvidia driver.

[Cooker] [Bug 5814] [drakxtools] Usbvnet_rfmd is not detected and not configurable

2003-10-27 Thread [djennings]
http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=5814





--- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2003-10-27 19:03 ---
I think there are 3 different issues here.

1/ drakconnect does not show the status of any USB wireless device.
I have a Belkin F5D6050 which is working perfectly using the at76c503a driver 
and comes up as wlan0 but is not detected by drakconnect.

2/ The atmelwlandriver (usbvnet_rfmd) being loaded by the OPs SMC2662-AW device 
requires a configuration programme called lvnet (or xvnet) to set it up. These 
files are not in the distro. Nor is the config file /root/.vnetrc

3/ The atmelwlandriver and the at76c503a support some of the same devices. When 
the device is plugged in hotplug loads both drivers but atmelwlandriver wins, 
but the device does not work because there is no way to set it up.
As a workaround I delete the folder /lib/modules/2.4.
22-18mdk/kernel/3rdparty/atmelwlan and then 'depmod -a' This allows the 
at76c503a driver to load. The at76c503a driver is a lot easier to configure 
because it can be set up by iwconfig and a 
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-wlan0 file

I plug in my USB SMC2662-AW. Modules usbvnet_rfmd load properly, iwconfig
recognises the wireless device as eth1.
I start Drakconnect, eth1 does not exist (not shown up in the list).
I run the wizard, eth1 is not detected. I choose it manually then carry on. I am
not asked to configure eth1.
Hope this can be fixed since it makes the device unusable (for a newbie)

Well, maybe Cooker Main is not *supposed* to be open, but...

My urpmi choices look like this (not all active at one time):

Cooker_M
Cooker_C
Plf_C
thacs92
local_dir
main
contrib
updates
plf
texstar91
thacs91


I have gotten more new files each day in Cooker_M (main) than any other
source.  I likely depends on the mirror.  NONE of the USA mirrors work that
I can find.

Since the Easy URPMI site has many 9.2 sites listed (but not all
reliable!) I have found that if a cooker update causes me a problem, I can
delete that rpm and dependencies and then get the standard 9.2 version with
urpmi by enable/disabling selected sources.

Only the docs, localization, and most importantly the .lang files.

The lib would be of no use without it as there would be no way for it to

Main is still frozen so no need to expect an 'official' pkg till it
reopens.

If you select the italian language in the installation, the Mandrake first 
time wizard cannot be completed (without tricks). There are two distinct 
problems:  
 
1) in one of the last dialogs, some radio buttons are not visible and the 
window cannot be resized in order to make them visible.  
 
2) even if you manage to select an invisible radio button via the arrow keys, 
then when you try to click continue, your mouse click is ignored.  (You CAN 
click it with the space bar, but that's beyond the knowledge of ordinary 
users). 
 
I have personally seen one Windows user dropping Mandrake because he was 
incapable of completing the first time wizard, so I thought to let you know.

[Cooker] Re: Kernel and Samba

2003-10-27 Thread Norman Zhang
Hi,

 My Samba box stalls after some usage, mapped drives disappear and
 users can't write or read from drives. The stalls happen randomly.
 I'm running 2.4.19-16mdksmp and Samba 2.2.7a-9.2mdk. May I ask is
 this a kernel bug or Samba bug? Does anyone know a fix for it? I
 checked the memory from BIOS, they didn't report any errors.

 BIOS memory check is (mostly) useless. Use memtest86 or similar.

Sure I will test it with memtest86 and report back. I have been running
LM9.0 with Samba on this box for 3/4 year now. The problem only arose in the
last 2 months by random. I swapped brand new Crucial Micron ECC DDR266
SDRAM, but the problem still presists. BTW, the BIOS memory check is quite
extensive (Intel claims to scan it block by block). It takes about 1 to 2
minutes for it to scan the memory. Not sure how this compares to memtest86.
I guess I will wait after hours before I can run a memtest86.

 This seems to point quite strongly to either hardware (most likely
 memory) or kernel (xfs driver or md driver, it seems you are running
 software raid?) If the kernel has problems with a filesystem, there's
 nothing much samba can do about it ...

I'm using software RAID. Do you know if there are recent updates to the
Mandrake kernel that may fix bugs in XFS and md drivers? Funny thing is that
only Samba dies. SSH and others still work.

   Summary: Disk IO problem on freshly installed 9.2
   Product: kernel

  Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
  Severity: critical
  Priority: P1
 Component: default
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Computer Asus P4C800 Deluxe, P4 2.8GHz, 1Gb memory, normal IDE and SATA Maxtor 
120Gb hard drives, NVIDIA FX display card (also old Matrox MGA PCI card tested)
- Installation goes well, with partition and package installation, both normal IDE and 
SATA IDE 
(not raid though) works similary i.e. no problems
- First start with either normal, smp, enterprise kernels goes ok, but then problem 
with file i/o 
starts
- first reboot = kernel dump last line says: Code: Bad EIP value
- before any reboot everything seems to go well until trying installation of updates 
packages, or 
sftp transfer, or any bigger file i/o results in I/O failure and/or directory 
corruption. This happens 
on ext3 and xfs root disks.
- kernel line has acpi=ht, but also acpi=off has been tested with no improvement.
- I haven't been able to test it with newer kernel, since I do not have installation 
media with newer 
kernel. I could try it if you make a boot disk available, this would probably require 
also kernel 
rpm update during the installation.
- Installation disks are Mandrake 9.2 First 3 of Powerpack from MandrakeClub

This report concerns GnuCash 1.8.6-2 and a totally updated cooker system.

IMPORTANT: please note that this bug also applies to the RELEASE version of 9.2!

I finally spent the time to upgrade my stable system to 9.2. However, I noticed
that gc would crash if I tried to add a report.

Testing on my cooker system, things worked fine. However, I did an update
through urpmi --auto-select. Lo and behold, GC started crashing in cooker too.

Unfortunately, due to a problem with gpm, the full list of packages updated
scrolled off the screen before I could copy them for this report. However, the
cause of the problem seems to be GConf or a related package. I thought it might
have been ORBit, but I didn't see it in the list of updates and I looked for it
(though I may be wrong).

My guess is that there was something in the latest fixes to correct crashes in
Evolution that have now caused major problems with GnuCash. I will reinstall 9.2
stable from scratch (since this will narrow down the possible problem package)
and see what packages are updated.

My vote is certainly on this bug after struggling with the issue on a couple of
systems.

It could also be useful to be able to just select the default device which would
become the alsa default and occupy the first dsp device(s).

Re: [Cooker] ADSL + postfix default config = open relay?

2003-10-27 Thread Bruno Prior
Buchan,

Maybe I got the wrong end of the stick, but I thought the relevant notes 
in main.cf were:

# TRUST AND RELAY CONTROL

# The mynetworks parameter specifies the list of trusted SMTP
# clients that have more privileges than strangers.
#
# In particular, trusted SMTP clients are allowed to relay mail
# through Postfix.  See the smtpd_recipient_restrictions parameter
# in file sample-smtpd.cf.
#
# You can specify the list of trusted network addresses by hand
# or you can let Postfix do it for you (which is the default).
#
# By default (mynetworks_style = subnet), Postfix trusts SMTP
# clients in the same IP subnetworks as the local machine.
# On Linux, this does works correctly only with interfaces specified
# with the ifconfig command.
#
# Specify mynetworks_style = class when Postfix should trust SMTP
# clients in the same IP class A/B/C networks as the local machine.
# Don't do this with a dialup site - it would cause Postfix to trust
# your entire provider's network.  Instead, specify an explicit
# mynetworks list by hand, as described below.
I took it that this was what was happening: postfix was adding the 
subnet that my ADSL IP address was on to the list of trusted hosts. Both 
mynetworks_style and mynetworks were commented out, as per (my) default 
postfix configuration. So the default values would be mynetworks_style = 
subnet and mynetworks = the various subnets that the local machine is 
in. This appears to be confirmed by the fact that specifying 
mynetworks = 192.168.1.0/24, 127.0.0.0/8, my.fixed.IP.address/32 seems 
to have stopped this happening.

 my
ISP's subnet had been added as a trusted subnet, as ADSL counts as a
dialup connection, which meant that anyone on their network could relay
through my mail server.
But, who added that?
As above, I didn't change anything in main.cf. The act of configuring 
ADSL added the ppp0 device, and postfix looks at this information 
(provided by ifconfig) and deduces the local subnets. So adding the ADSL 
connection appears to have turned postfix into an open relay without 
changing anything in postfix's configuration.

drakconnect doesn't touch main.cf
Agreed. But if it doesn't, and postfix is behaving the way the notes in 
main.cf describe, then setting up the ADSL connection via drakconnect 
turns an existing default postfix configuration into an open relay 
(open is probably too strong a word, as it is not open generally, but 
just to anyone on the ISP's subnet, but that's still quite a lot of 
spammers, by the looks of things).

By default, the important postfix settings are:

$ cp /etc/postfix/main.cf.rpmnew /tmp/main.cf
$ /usr/sbin/postconf -c /tmp mynetworks inet_interfaces relay_domains
mydestination
mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8
inet_interfaces = localhost
relay_domains = $mydestination
mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain
Maybe my main.cf is out-of-date, then, but it definitely does not have 
mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8 as the default. To quote the notes embedded 
in the file again:

# You can specify the list of trusted network addresses by hand
# or you can let Postfix do it for you (which is the default).
And this does make more sense, to allow for the mail server to serve 
more than just the local machine, if you have a small local network. It 
just turns out to be risky if you setup ADSL.

So, by default you shouldn't even be able to get a connection to postfix
unless you have manually changed mynetworks, or used some tool which
does so. drakconnect can't take responsibility for every single possible
configuration that may depend on it's settings.
Again, agreed, if that is your default configuration for postfix. 
Admittedly, I did an upgrade from 9.1 to 9.2RC2, rather than a fresh 
install, but I just checked the main.cf.rpmnew that was created when I 
upgraded, and it also has the settings I describe above, rather than the 
ones you describe. Weird, huh?

Ideally we need a configuration tool which can find such issues, but
it's not drakconnect, and it needs to be very user friendly (and not do
things automatically). But I don't think this is your problem.
I agree that it may be too difficult for a program to deduce the 
appropriate settings automatically. But a warning in drakconnect at the 
end of the ADSL configuration process might be sensible, if there are 
more people than me out there with my version of the default postfix 
configuration file.

Maybe if you can try and find out what had changed any of the important
settings, we can take a look, but I don't see how either the default
postfix config or drakconnect are responsible.
As I say, mynetworks_style and mynetworks were commented out, which is 
as I have always understood their default state to be. Maybe the default 
has changed and I have an old default configuration, but that doesn't 
explain the matching rpmnew file. Could it be that some other part of 
the installation configuration process modifies main.cf and that this 
step got missed out on my machine?

Currently installing the Nvidia or ATI 3D-accelerated non-free drivers from
Mandrake packages involves using urpmi to get the packages in place and then
launching Xfdrake and reselecting the current driver.

It would make things vastly more clear if the nvidia/fglrx drivers had a
separate entry, clearly labeled as the non-free 3D-accelerated driver, that you
would need to manually choose from the list in Xfdrake. Right now the whole
process of running Xfdrake after the package installation just seems a bit
fuzzy and many users end up editing XF86Config by hand.

[Cooker] [Bug 6244] [harddrake] New: [RFE] support for installing separate 3rd party modules to the system

2003-10-27 Thread [antti.salminen]
http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6244

   Summary: [RFE] support for installing separate 3rd party modules
to the system
   Product: harddrake
   Version: 9.2-9mdk
  Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
  Severity: normal
  Priority: P2
 Component: harddrake
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


The possibility to add separate binary (or even source?) modules to the system
and let Drakconf/Harddrake know about them would be useful. I believe SuSe does
something like this with Yast2 although I have not tried using the feature.

An example:

I was installing 9.2 for a friend and his ethernet card (3c940 handled by the
3c2000 module) was not available in the default install so I had to compile the
module, place it by hand into the kernel module directory, run depmod and make
sure it would get loaded. After this I attempted lauching DrakConnect to
configure the LAN settings but it would not let me go past the device selection
screen because it had no knowledge of the ethernet driver I had just installed.

If Mandrake would let me select a new kernel module to install, figure out (by
asking or whatever) the type of hardware it is supposed to be used with and let
me configure a device using it, this would've been very easy (sans the actual
compilation).

In response to comment 3 (fc):

Following the instructions doesn't fix it. I can confirm that GConf2 alone will
cause the problem (at least, under Gnome) as CGonf (v1) has a bad signature on
the mirror I use and so I decided against installing it.

Here are reproduceable test cases:

- open a file
- add a report (eg the expense piechart)
- coredump

or

- open a file that already had an associated report (eg created before doing an
update)
- coredump

I can confirm this error on load under KDE began with the latest updates to 9.2.
If I manually start gconfd-1 (gconfd-2 is already in the process table),
however, gnucash will load.

gnucash no longer starts, it complains that gtkhtml cannot connect to gconfd.
One maybe has to open a report to trigger this? My gnucash opens some reports
upon start.

After downgrading to previous (9.2) GConf stuff and relogin, gnucash works again.

[Cooker] Fwd: [plug] Mandrake Bug announce warning rant ahead

Subject: [plug] Mandrake Bug announce warning rant ahead
Date: Tue, 28 Oct 2003 09:58
From: Scott Middleton DESPAMMED

rant
I am pissed off..
Has anyone seen an official announcement to the Mandrake users that
using their latest and greatest will completely stuff their CDROM?
I don't care that it is not their fault. I don't care that Suse has the
same problem nor do i care if they have found a fix. I was told because
i subscribe to PLUG. I am on the announcements list at Mandrake but it
is usually 2 weeks behind. Maybe i will receive an official notice in
two weeks!

I meet people everyday who run Mandrake but are not on any Mailing
 List. They are not activists, they just don't want to pay for software
 and they don't want to steal it either. How are they supposed to know
 when it is not even on the Mandrake Club front page?

I think this is a very important piece of information that should be
well publicised by them at least in an effort to have some credibility.
This just seems typical of M$ worrying about bottom line rather than
 the users of the product. I expect a  big blazon across their homepage
 saying Please be aware that Mandrake 9.2 can destroy your CDROM. Or
 at least; some official notice.

I suppose what really pisses me off is i have now lost one of my major
Linux selling points. Linux is good because it doesn't hide its
 faults, it acknowledges them and then fixes it.

I didn't lose any CDROMs only because i didn't (fortunately) upgrade
 all the machines that are running Mandrake. My home machine luckily
 doesn't have LG CDROM and is working wonderfully. So for me it wasn't
 the cost of membership + 1 or more CDROMs but for many others it was.

Even worse for Mandrake it only affects the financial contributors. The
people who are starting to make Mandrake profitable, this really can't
be good business decision for them. I can live with bugs and mistakes
but i can't live with irresponsible behaviour and not informing users
 is plainly irresponsible. I will have to reconsider being a financial
 member next year.

Maybe i am overreacting about people having to buy a new CDROM, forget
the warranty, who wants to wait weeks/months for a replacement one. I
 am just a bit disappointed in Mandrake and their lack of urgency in
 informing the public.

[Cooker] 9.2 problems with Dell Laptop c640

2003-10-27 Thread Jaimon Jose
Hi,
I have few of hardware related problems with a dell latitude c640
1. I use a TEAC CD224E DVD drive with this.  I can see that drive is
properly recognized while booting.  But I don't have a /dev/dvd
created.  ( dmesg is attached.)

2. I do have a PCTEL 2304WT v.92 modem.  I can't see 9.2 recognizing
this as valid modem.  I'm trying to set it up as per
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/pctel-linux/.  This appears to be little
old.  Is this correct?

3. As reported earlier, I have disabled ACPI due to system lock up.  I
can't suspend the system now which was possible with Mandrake 9.1.  If
anybody is interested in helping me debugging the problem, I can provide
sufficient information.  

thanks in advance,
--jaimon

I was all set to reply to this mail with You're full of it, the 
distro hasn't even shipped yet and it was all over 
Mandrakeclub, but

It wasn't.

Turns out the only reason I know about this is because I 
subscribed to cooker in preparation for submitting my own RPM's 
to contrib.  I would have eventually seen the article on 
slashdot or the register about it, but by then I would have 
tried to install it on a client's machine that had been 
earmarked for Mandrake 9.2 and which, indeed, had an LG CD-ROM 
drive in it.

What worries me more is that this was discovered after 9.2 had 
gone gold and presumably been stamped on aluminum and boxed 
for sending out to retail stores and replacing CD's (or 
worse yet, orchestrating a recall) will cost money that Mandrake 
couldn't need more right now.  Worse still would be if this got 
into the channel and someone with an axe to grind decided to sue 
Mandrake for knowingly selling something that would destroy 
equipment, however cheap the equipment may be... in some 
jurisdictions this would probably be legal no matter what the 
EULA or the GPL says.

I wish I could be a little more constructive here, but all I can 
come up with is do better next time, guys.  Not that I want 
there to be a next time as far as blowing up out-of-spec 
Korean drives goes, but I certainly hope to see Mandrake 10.0 
sometime next year.

--- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2003-10-28 04:07 ---
I'm using Mandrake 9.2 with KDE and Mozilla of the 9.2. I have this problem
everytime if I do this:
- Open a konqueror in virtual desktop 1
- Open a Mozilla in virtual desktop 3
- In mozilla, go here: http://www.bluetack.co.uk/convert.html
- type something in the output field
- select konqueror 
- select Mozilla and then try to write in the output field.

If the problem doesn't happen, try select konqueror / write in mozilla several
times.
For me, using this site make the problem always reproductible. Hope I can help...

[Cooker] [Bug 6000] [X11R6-contrib] Hardware acceleration with 3DFX Voodoo 4/5 broken

I can confirm this.

I have a Voodoo5 PCI.  Under 9.1, it works fine.  Under 9.2, everything _seems_
like it should work, but glxinfo reports direct rendering: No, and opengl
performance suggest that DRI isn't loaded at all.

I'll be happy to provide whatever other info you need.

Regards,

Dave

[Cooker] [Bug 6247] [Installation] New: MS-Windows autorun exe problems

2003-10-27 Thread [mej]
http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6247

   Summary: MS-Windows autorun exe problems
   Product: Installation
   Version: 1.829
  Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
  Severity: normal
  Priority: P2
 Component: Installation
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


The MS-Windows autorun executable as provided with the Mandrake Linux 9.2
Download Edition suffers from two glaring problems:

1)  The title bar shows Mandrake Linux 9.1 amd
2)  There are two different versions of the MS-Windows autorun executable on the
CD.  The first, is the one pointed to by the autorun.inf file:

[autorun]
open=dosutils\autorun.exe
icon=dosutils\autorun.ico

This copy of autorun.exe has the file date of 10-Mar-2003.

The second, is the one in the root directory of the CD with the date of
10-Sep-2003.  It has the correct background for the 9.2 distribution, although
the title bar indicated 9.1.

There is only one copy of the autorun.ico file, and it is in the dosutils directory.

Note that this bug is entered here in Installation/Installation since there
appears to be no location for the MS-Windows autorun program.
