I think your keyboard is misconfigured and don't send Alt when pressing

 Indeed, at the same time you have :

 - gnome icons themes
 - XFree cursors

In case you didn't knew, GNOME and KDE are now starting to use a common
specification to share icons
(http://www.freedesktop.org/Standards/icon-theme-spec). But since
everything is not done yet, there are problems. And doing symlinks will
not help the situation. I think you should read the spec and fill bugs on

[Cooker] Sony Clié, Palm, Handspring, PalmOS users, please read

2003-11-14 Thread Frederic Crozat
Folks,

I'm trying to fix bug #3381, which is a problem with some Palm/Clié/other
PalmOS PDA which requires using /dev/usb/tts/0 instead of /dev/usb/tts/1

Currently, I only know of 3 problematic models :
-Sony Clié N770C/E (Vendor=054c ProdID=0060)
-Palm m130 (Vendor=0830 ProdID=0050)
-Sony Clié 320 (Vendor=054c, ProdID unknown)

So, if you have another PDA which requires this kind of changes, please,
post it here, with Vendor and ProdID (check /proc/bus/usb/devices after
pressing hotsync)

If you have a PalmOS PDA which does NOT requires this but which is not
correctly described in /usr/share/doc/pilot-link-0.11.8/README.usb (it
doesn't have USBx info, it is missing for the list, etc..), please, post
here too.

I'd like to get the pilot-link up to date to be sure /dev/pilot is always
symlinked to the correct usb serial devices.

If you have a Palm Tungsten T3, I know they don't work yet but I plan to
fix that as soon as I receive mine :)) (probably next week, replacing my
Clié N770C/E).

Thanks for your cooperation :)

Mozilla WON'T be libified until Mozilla folks released GRE (Gecko Runtime

[Cooker] GNOME 2.5/2.6 and cooker

2003-11-06 Thread Frederic Crozat
Hi folks,

since cooker is re-opened again, I'd like to ask all people who have
upload permissions to main cooker to NOT upload any GNOME 2.5/2.6 packages.

Unfortunately, it seems GNOME 2.6 release schedule will collide with next
distro release (this one is not yet final) so I won't be able to push
GNOME 2.6 for Mdk 10.0. Since there is no easy way to handle two seperate
branches of packages in cooker (and NO, I don't want to see foobar2.6
named packages in contrib, I keep 2.4.x packages in cooker. (Trust me, I'm
not very happy about that :(

I haven't yet decided if I'll push GTK+ 2.4 in cooker, but ATM, I won't
push 2.3.0 since it is not yet stable and I don't see any new release of
software using it..

I might work on a separate GNOME 2.6 repository on people.mandrakesoft.com
(or klama) with Götz help but it is not yet sure..

 I think lm_sensors is behaving bad on this machine, since when

 (normally it modifies the speed according to the temperature, and
 will run 1/4 or 1/3 of speed most of the time), and it said it
 detected an ISA bridge to the BIOS, which is strange for a recent

There is a similar problem (fan at fullspeed) with Shuttle SN45G, because
lmsensors is writing all available bits on sensors registers when it

 Considering that cooker is frozen and jabber is in main, I've packaged

No, it is not completely broken :

your default background file is not present (mandrake_theme/mandrake_desk
broken stuff) in /usr/share/mdk/backgrounds/default.png (it should be a

 Here are two patches for bash completion.
 
 The first one provides those mighty improvments for urpmi (and friends) 
 completion:
  - ligthning-fast package completion using latest urpmi pre-generated package 
 lists
  - avoid querying database when word to complete is clearly a file
  - up-to-date option list
  - some minor forgotten completion fixed
 
 The second one fixes some problems with service completion, such as trying to 
 complete past the 3rd word, or completing to non-service files as 
 /etc/init.d/function.
 
 Please test, and if no serious bug is found, i'll happily commit those patches 
 to bash-completion package.

BTW, could you fix bash-completion so :

gendiff foobar-x.y | bzip2 -c  [TAB] will allow TAB to use ANY (or at

Yeah, I saw that but I don't think it is related to /dev/rtc.. tvtime is

 I humbly think that's not good.

 Just as a side note, in Windows XP, only solution to do a real
 check of the disk is to open a Command Prompt (that's how it's
 called, and it's installed by default) and to use chkdsk from
 there. Just to show that even users of XP (the easy OS) need
 sometimes to do things in Command Prompt - and we even encourage
 them to do a chkdsk from there before installing Mandrake.

 Now, there is another reason, maybe even more important: Linux
 is, as Windows, still too complicated for most users, who tend to
 ask their friends for support when they have a request. And these
 friends will surely often ask them to open a console or a
 terminal and launch whatever command from there. Hitting
 Ctrl-Alt-F1 is more complicated (and won't work if they want to
 launch an XFree app). Thus, a terminal program should be
 installed and easily accessible from the Menu, in my humble
 opinion (even if one is accessible from MCC, because if the
 friend is a Debian fan he won't know that).
 
 ?
 
 I don't understand why people want always install a terminal. Most of users 
 don't need it. If you need one, simply choose Consoles tools category when 
 you can choose which packages should be installed. And if you need one 
 after installation, simply launch rpmdrake and install a terminal.
 
 I can understand that most of people using Cooker need a terminal. But you 
 also need to understand that we don't develop a product only for Cooker 
 users. Most of our users simply don't need a terminal.

Then we should move Terminal menu entry from main menu to a subsection
(Applications is probably the best choice).

Moreover, for people not using GNOME/KDE default install (ie without
gnome-terminal/konsole installed), rxvt won't appear in menu, even if it
is available.. I think it is wrong, since our menu used to display all

 'advanced' users (who can distinguish between galeon, epiphany, mozilla
 etc), can select their own favorite browser, or tweak the alternative to
 manual mode instead. Anyway, which would be better? Epiphany? Galeon?

Please, read previous bug report about that..

I don't think we should change to Epiphany now.. Galeon has been Mdk GNOME
default browser for a looong time and I don't want to change it now..

Maybe for Mdk 10.0

 Fred, probably my previous mail didn't reach you; can this package be
 moved to contrib instead? If there is need to render HTML in nautilus,
 there's already epiphany and galeon, which both have a nautilus view;
 and nautilus-gtkhtml has stopped development for more than a year.
 Can this count as an obsolete software which has a better substitute?

Epiphany doesn't have a nautilus view, only galeon does..

Anyway, you are right, I'll move it..

Well, before -2mdk, Evo code for loading icons was broken.. I've grabbed
latest CVS code which now uses standard GNOME code to do so.. But then, of

 +The  sign for inch is still missing. This is the same bug as #116772.

 gnome-print in Cooker is libgnomeprintui2-2_0-2.2.1.3-1mdk.
 And I can't get gpdf to display pdflatex files correctly...

Of course, adding your bug report number to your mail would have been
helpful..

Anyway, libgnomeprint in cooker is the most recent release available
(gnome-2-2 branch) and code hasn't changed at all in CVS, comparent to
the release we use.

  Hi,
  rpm gave me a message about libgtkhtml-3.0_2-devel-3.0.8-1mdk
  conflicting with the previous package. I had to manually remove the
  previous devel package and IIRC the previous libgal-devel that was
  depending on it.
=20
 libgal2.0_5-devel conflicts with libgal2.0_3-devel.. There is nothing
 wrong with it..
 Hmm,
 The pb was with libgtkhtml-dev.
 I had the previous devel package installed and had no way to install the
 new one.
 I had to manually remove the old one. Something is wrong here, or me or
 the packaging ;)

Nothing has changed in the packaging..

Of course, with an error message, it would have been easier to track..

 hi
 I just upgraded my gnome-panel package to the latest cooker package, and
 not it wont autohide anymore. If I tell it to expand in the options,
 then it autohides fine - else it does nothing. 
 does anyone else have this problem. 

Works here..

 Also! the icons for log out and lock Screen are still missing (icons
 with red cross is showing). 

Which icon theme are you using ? If it is not GNOME or Galaxy, switch
to GNOME, it should fix the problem.

 Hia folks,
 
 any chance in getting the 2.4.22  (Well the patches from  2.4.22-pre10-ac1)

 Would be quite nice to not having to repatch  Build the kernel everytime I'm 
 using a new one :) Also - if the CLE266 Chipset support could also be 
 integrated into X - or at least having a package that adds support for it 
 would be really great :)

Give us some time.. Alan only got updated drivers from VIA one or two
weeks ago and they are not yet fully merged in XFree86/DRI/kernel..

But there is hope : I have now an EPIA system at home so I can test
easily..

 I don't like seeing all the user's names on the

 of users this could be cumbersome.

Add DISPLAYMANAGER=gdm in /etc/sysconfig/desktop.

gdm integrates without any problem with KDE. The only missing stuff is
shutdown when logging out, which requires kdm running (which is is stupid,
IMO, we have PAM to check if we need authorization..)

 According to fcrozat, this is supposed to be fixed.  See bug 3584.

Bug 3584 was another kind of bug : gdm wasn't see the system was shutting

Yes, I saw that yesterday on my test system (it is not related to gdm)..
I'll investigate monday.

You can fill a bug against gnome-session so I won't forget about it..

 THANKS!, Theme capplet works again, but...
 there are still missing icons ;)
 - with Gorilla: Network Proxy, Sound
 - with Wasp: Sound

I only support official icon theme ie GNOME one.. Complain to
packages/maintainers of other icon sets, not me :)

 And a new small look'n'feel problem. If you open the nautilus view of
 gnomecc,
 and switch themes, there are some items that do not have any icon,
 for many themes:
 - Multimedia keys: no theme has icon for this
 - Sound: no theme but the *Contrast* and Wasp ones has icon
 - Network Proxy: Gorilla, ScallableGorilla have no icon
 - Advanced/Login Photo: no theme has icon, and it does not show in the menu
 
 And a final note: some of the *Contrast* themes do not have a B/W icon for
 some
 applications, but that is a minor problem.
 
 Do not know if it is a Gnome problem (the icons are missing in the original
 tarballs), but I think this is important. If icons are missing, it gives the
 impression of an unfinished product...

You are using non official icon theme, don't complain about lack of
consistency !!
