[EMAIL PROTECTED] changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEEDINFO |NEW ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-03-17 21:30 ------- Hi, I may have made a mistake. First I tried to install exactly as instructed but received a message that some files were missing. There was no request though to put any CD in. I then tried it all over again by trying to install the files separately. I was instructed that one file needed to be deleted to which I agreed with "Y" it then proceeded but still a file was missing. trying another single file it now is requesting one of the files I am trying to install. I subsequently tried the entire install again, still files are missing. Here is a copy of the console: [EMAIL PROTECTED] dietmar]$ su - Password: [EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# ls *.rpm ls: *.rpm: No such file or directory [EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# cd /tmp [EMAIL PROTECTED] tmp]# ls *.rpm drakconf-9.1-11mdk.i586.rpm harddrake-9.1-26mdk.i586.rpm drakxtools-9.1-26mdk.i586.rpm harddrake-ui-9.1-26mdk.i586.rpm drakxtools-newt-9.1-26mdk.i586.rpm [EMAIL PROTECTED] tmp]# urpmi drakxtools-9.1*.rpm The following packages have to be removed for others to be upgraded: drakconf-9.1-5mdk (due to unsatisfied harddrake-ui >= 9.1-5mdk) harddrake-ui-9.1-12mdk (due to unsatisfied drakxtools == 9.1-12mdk) do you agree ?

It is the first time i am entering a bugzilla report, so please bear with me. I may also be doing something wrong, simply because i am new to the software. Even if that is so, the software needs to be further simplified to prevent those problems. I have been trying 9.1rc2 recently and really like what I see. All the most important periperals were recognized automatically. There is one big problem for me though: There does not seem to be a clear way to install a network printer at the beginning. I am using a Xerox (sometimes called Tektronix) Phaser 860 directly on the ethernet. The OS did recognize my HP 45T on the parallel port correctly. Later I did try to install the Phaser via printerdrake. Every time the system automatically looks for attached printers and finds the HP 45T and also installs again. In the meantime - kept trying - I have 6 installations of the HP 45T printer but still no phaser. The system only appears to be looking for parallel and possibly USB printers but leaves the network printers out. Once it has found the printer it autoimatically goes back to the icon of printerdrake, there is no pssibility to choose to install ot to discard. Does anybody have an answer, the new distro seems so nice and I am keen on using it but cannot without the printer solution. Please let me know, if you need further info. Dietmar
