Hello again,
I have another problem (remember, I am a newbie!!!!!)
rpmdrake was trying to read the rpm packages from the cdrom (cdrom 1) that
at the moment I can use as reader (is a Yamaha CDRW and mandrake 7.2 just
can read cd when it is used with xcdroast)
I tryed yesterday to force rpmdrake to read from the cdrom2 (Hitachi DVD)
erasing the cdrom (1) lecture to find rpm packages from the preferences and
>from then it is impossible to open rpmdrake, that gives me an error (no
>packages avalaible or something similar).
>Is there any configuration file for rpmdrake?, I suppose that because if I
>uninstall and then reinstall rpmdrake the problem is not solved. And
>rpmdrake wasn't read from the Hitachi DVD, so I can not use the program to
>install more rpm packages.
>
>
>Thanks a lot for your attention
>Yours sincerely

>>Hello,
>>I have finally installed 7.2 on my computer; when I did the installation
>>using a booting disk I had a lot of problems with KDE2, but doing the
>>installation from the CD-ROM more of the problems have dissapeared.
>>Most of the problems, but not all; I have the next ones:
>>
>>a) under 7.1 my Yamaha CDR works fine, as CD-recorder and as CD-lecture;
>but
>>now it only works as CD-recorder, when I introduce a CD_ROM it is not
>>recognized (the KDE shows the icon closed). Unfortunately Rpmdrake just
>look
>>for the rpm packages in the Yamaha.
>>
>>b) My DVD Hitachi was recognized well, but not with xcdroast; I just can
>>copy CD using the Yamaha to read (in this case it works!!!!!) and write.
>>Under 7.1 the Hitachi worked fine 100%.
>>
>>c) The sound of the tv-card (Avermedia Capture 98) is not correctly
>>detected, so I can watch the tv with kvintv but not hear the sound. Under
>>7.1 worked fine.
>>
>>d) The KDE system control (the name it is not exactly that, but it is
>>equivalent to the System-Configuration package in windows) detects a lot
of
>>conflict of IRQ between netcard and soundcard, but I have not idea about
>how
>>to change this; I have made changes in the modules.conf file, for example
>>the soundcard IRQ under windows is 5, but in linux is 7 (I think this
could
>>be part of the problem), but if I put the change in modules.conf and
>restart
>>the sistem the irq is the same.
>>
>>e) My epson Stylus 760 works; the color print is fine, much better than in
>>7.1, but the margins are minimum (cup configuration) and I can find how to
>>modify them.
>>
>>Any help will be very appreciated, because 7.2 looks and seems to work
fine
>>for the rest of the hardware and software.
