[Cooker] arts sound server and via ac 97
I have a VIA ac'97 chipset on my motherboard (soltek 67kv+) and I had alsa manually installed on 7.1 and sound worked fine. Since 7.2beta/cooker the sound only works with the arts sound server off, and not all saved sounds in the kde settings work when they're supposed to. If I turn on the arts sound server the sound comes out all choppy. I'm still using 2.2.16-9mdk until you make a final choice on 2.2.17, so I don't have the new version of alsa - is it just this or a problem with the arts sound server and alsa on via ac 97? _ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.

[Cooker] sound problem
On my 2nd machine, I have a Acer FX-3D sound card (module ad1816). The card is pnp and hardrake was unable to configure it. I had to configure manually with pnpdump, isapnp before it could work. I'm not sure whether this configuration is supposed to be manual or not, but I vaguely recall not having to do any of this with mandrake 7.1. In any case, this was with harddrake-0.9.3-3mdk and kernel-smp-2.2.17-11mdk (all the package exactly as the were on the beta 3 iso) on an smp machine. -- Jean Meloche [EMAIL PROTECTED] e-gold # 133947

[Cooker] joystick support
I have tried setting up the modules for my joystick. To get it configured for a generic 4-axis, 4-button stick I did: rmmod es1370 insmod es1370 joystick=1 modprobe joystick modprobe joy-analog Everything setup without error messages. Next I tried to test and calibrate it but could not find any programs in 7.2beta3 which supports this. Are there any? I then downloaded joystick-1.2.15.tgz from www.suse.cz/development/joystick and compiled jscal and jstest (since the modules are already included in cooker). This worked but they are only comsole/text based programs :-( I then found ftp://fox.mit.edu/pub/xsw/libjsw1.3.0.tgz which was an excellent Xwindow based calibration and test program (and its GPL!). If no other joystick cal program is currently supplied, can this one (or something better anyone?) be included with 7.2? I would consider trying my hand at building an RPM for it if there is interest in including with 7.2. Cheers, Rob

I have tried ulysse beta 3 and i would like to report some problems : - minor bugs : - kcontrol center does not run from the icon on the KDE panel. The shortcuts adds a "%c" to the command kcontrol that is invalid. - when using a zip drive, the mount point /mnt/zip is incorrectly /mnt.zip in the shortcut of the icon added on desktop -the k menu editor does not work at all, as the KDE media player enqueue - more important bug : - i am using an ide cd writer and a usb zip250 drive. They both are correctly recognized and configured. Both are scsi emulated, but they are given the same ID. When i want to use the writer, i need to disconnect the zip drive. If the usb drive is connected, a cdrecord --scanbus command gives only the usb drive connected on SCSI ID 0,0,0 and the writer does not appear. - kpackage looks very promising, but it is very unstable, i have a crash every time i want to list the files of a package Overall, it looks very promising, bravo for the wheel mouse configuration.

[Cooker] Beta 3 - hostname with cablemodem
Hi, I am not a newbie but I am far from an expert though - I asked several days ago how I could setup my computer's hostname to be the one provided by my ISP during DHCP client wakeup. I dunno how dhcpcd works and where to set my hostname given by the remote dhcp server. The point is that during and after the init, the hostname sticks to "default" which is ugly/stupid. Writing manually into /etc/hosts is stupid too ... I would/could do "nslookup" and parse its output but as I said above I don't know where/when to do it in the initscript files. PLEASE, IS ANYBODY LISTENING (reading) ??? P.S. : Maybe it is only an issue which will be corrected on the final product just like the previous versions. If it is the case, then I say I am curious to know how it works - I just can't resist to learn Linux ok ? :-) Thanks Serge Lussier

Re: [Cooker] boot catalog for creating ISOs from cooker
Subject: [Cooker] boot catalog for creating ISOs from cooker Some time ago Troels Liebe Bentsen posted some scripts here to create ISO images from a cooker mirror. In there he calls mkisofs -c images/boot.cat, but in the current cooker there's no images/boot.cat. The boot cat is created by mkisofs, any existing boot.cat will get overwritten, so you don't need there to be an existing one. It is only made for bootable CD disks; I don't know exactly how it is used, but I guess it is just a list of files that to load on bootup. Steven

Now, I cannot, no matter what even boot windows 98. Not from CD, floppy or hard disk. Has *anyone* seen anything like this? I am running an Athlon K7 800 on a KT133 Motherboard I had a similar-sounding problem (Duron 650, MSI 6330 MoBo/KT133 Chipset); fixed by resetting my bios changes back to factory default settings. I think in my case it was because I have an LS120, but no floppy, and it was trying to boot from floppy. I'm not sure how an OS install could have affected your bios settings though ...

RE: [Cooker] Beta 3 - hostname with cablemodem -- Problem with Hostname Field!
Umm If you do the install the RIGHT way, there's definitely an opportunity to type in your hostname...My chance came when you get the network setup window and go to setup local LAN... I did this first and then used the connect to Cable modem section as it's the only way this seemed to work as the modules for my NICs only seem to get installed when I do the LAN setup first.. What type of install are you doing? I know you have the option in BETA 3 using Expert.. Anyone out there had any success with @home DHCP servers and BETA 3? I have not been able to connect to an @home DHCP server since LM 7.0 and I'd certainly love to..Extra points to anyone who does it using DHCP and not by specifying static, and has a LAN. Please pass along how to do the setup :) (ie. Should I be using PUMP, DHCP, DHCP Client, etc.) Also, at several points, LM requests a fully qualified hostname. Well guys, this field doesn't accept enough characters to take my fully qualified hostname. My host name is -#.#.ON.WAVE.HOME.COM This has only fit once, and I belief it was in NetConf. Do I need a fully qualified hostname for DHCP? Is the reason it hasn't worked yet because I can't get that whole hostname into the HOSTNAME field? Please let me know!

Re: [Cooker] Curious Issue with Beta and win98 (maybe)
You may have damaged your main boot record on the hard drive. Try using a Windows 98 boot ( or Windows 98 emergency disk) that has FDISK on it. Try the command FDISK/MBR. By using the / MBR switch, it will replace the startup code of the beginning for the MBR(it will overwrite the Linux info).The Windows Partition info will be left in tact. After it replaces the startup code it will return you to the DOS prompt, just reboot.You can then try a fresh install of Linux. Before you start FDISK, check your CMOS to ensure that A: drive is in the boot order and selected. i.e.. boot order A:,C:, CD: etc.. Note: The /MBR switch is an undocumented feature of FDISK. Use it at your own risk. Bob Lawrence NS. Canada.

Re: [Cooker] beta3 bugs (fail to detect nic during install)
Thats good that someone else has the same problem with there nic card, hehe thought I was doing something wrong or maybe just going crazy! But everything was the same for my system. What going on with Kde Media Player enqueue I clicked on a mp3 file and it tried starting but never does and then suddenly everything under kde starts being really sluggish have to log out and back in to make it so the mouse pointer runs without skipping. Another thing I was playing around with was dragging and droping which has some serious problems again under kde problems with lag? Is this Mandrake specific or something for them kde developers are working on? I can confirm this same problem. When I installed beta 3 on each of my 2 computers and selected cable modem, the installer gives the message: "No ethernet network adapter is currently configured on your system. Please run the hardware configuration tool." But as soon as I run linuxconf, it finds the device and sets up the drivers. I still had to do "ifup eth0" to kick dhcp after linuxconf finished the setup and exited. The 2 nics I use are PCI NE2000 clone (rtl8129?) and a 3COM 3c900 (3c95x). Also, another issue during the install. After the network install fails, it goes to the Time Zone setup. Once this is complete is returns to the network setup, fails again after repeating the inputs for the same nic, then again goes into the Time Zone setup. This repeats endlessly untill I choose 'Disable network". Then it skips over the printer setup! Cheers, Rob _ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.

[Cooker] Misc Comments/Probs
7.2b3 on an AMD machine that had no probs on 7.1: 1. Attempt to install additional rpm's failed because installer only looked to an "RPMS2" directory on CD when there was only "RPM" directory. Manual RPM install was OK so this was just annoying. 2. KDE seizes up frequently. Can still move mouse and click on things, but nothing will run and I get an error like "Can't open " on some things. Can't tell if this is a KDE2 or a 7.2b3 problem. This was problem on at least two boxes. 3. CUPS failed on install. This was wiered because on my other two boxes, I had no such problem. 4. I was not queried to install 2.4 kernel, and instead 2.2.17 was installed. Why no query for 2.4? 5. One box had new graphical boot sequence, the other two didn't and I could not identify any reason for the difference. Perhaps a good early screen in the install should ask in plain language what options a user wants like: Use graphical startup __ Use Kernel 2.4 __ Use X Windows 4.__ __ etc... 6. Not for me but for newbie users, the install routine is still relatively daunting. Shouldn't goal with such a good install be to allow total newbie to go through process, including disk partitioning, without ever saying "huh?" For the most part the current install succeeds in this, but I still think some more text during the install would help. 7. Lilo and grub, are both necessary? They are both ugly, can't a graphical boot OS chooser be implemented? 8. One box had great installer graphics, the other two had degraded graphics quality (i.e. the text at the top of the installer was blocky). All had at least 8MB graphics boards that are fully supported in linux. Is this a "known issue"? Later _ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.

[Cooker] Television Cards
Hi there, I was wondering about television card support. I saw it mentioned in the setup program, but nothing is mentioned about which actual cards are supported. Does anyone have a list of supported TV cards, so I can have a rather cheap excuse to go out and buy one ("Of course I need it, sweetheart, I'm helping some people test something very important.").

Does anyone have a list of supported TV cards, so I can have a rather cheap excuse to go out and buy one ("Of course I need it, sweetheart, I'm helping some people test something very important."). I'm sure you'll find a complete list of supported cards (see kernel docs), but if I remember well, cards based on BT848, BT849, BT878 and BT879 chipsets are supported. I own a Pinnacle studio PC TV rave, which is cheap and worked OK. I could not make it work for a long time though, because bttv support is broken in 2.2.17 kernel series (until -12mdk at least).
[Cooker] [Sparc] Problems with 7.1b
I'm new to the list, but i did a scan of the archives and didn't see anything on this. (* funny, they're not listed on the mailing list page, but a little reg-ex matching.. ) I've got an Ultra-2 Enterprise, 300Mhz Sparc with 1Gb of Ram, onboard HME and Sun QFE. Two questions: 1: I'm able to install (unlike 7.0, which wouldn't boot) and get the system running, however trying to initialize the HME or QFE interfaces causes a kernel panic. I'll include the text of that panic at the bottom of the message. 2: I tried to then upgrade my kernel (by booting back into solaris, thank goodness for dual-boot) and downloaded 2.2.17, rebooted back into linux, and tried to compile. For whatever reason, the Makefiles seem to be configured for cross-compiling as a default. Trying to remove the '-m64 -mcpu=ultrasparc' lines from the AFLAGS and CFLAGS gets me a little further, but when the compiler passes things over to the assembler, i get an Architecture mismatch on "movcc" (requires v9|v9a; requested arch is sparclite) adding -Wa,-Av9a to the CC line gets me a little further, but I'm having lots of warnings, and it finally bombs out with a arch mismatch trying to link the object files. as sparc:v8plus input is not compatible with sparc:v9 output.. This doesn't seem right.. Has anybody been able to compile the kernel under sparc/linux? am i possibly missing any packages from the default developer install? output from dmseg, and ksymoops: --- PROMLIB: Sun IEEE Boot Prom 3.11.2 1997/12/05 10:25 Linux version 2.2.16-5mdksecure ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc driver version 2.7.2 snapshot 970621 executing gcc version 2.7.2) #1 SMP Fri Jun 16 15:10:36 CEST 2000 ARCH: SUN4U Ethernet address: 08:00:20:82:46:7a Found CPU 0 (node=f00661ac,mid=0) Found 1 CPU prom device tree node(s).

[Cooker] can anybody in US burn me a set of CD's?
Hello all. Sorry to be a pest. Spent the last three days downloading the Beta 3 ISO - only to find that somewhere along the line the file got corrupted and the image is no good. Before trying to download for ANOTHER 3 days, and chance I could bribe someone on the Cooker list into burning me the two disks? would be happy to pay a reasonable fee to cover postage, disk, time, etc. Thanks, Vincent Meyer

[Cooker] Some bug reports for Beta 3
- ISDN is absolutely not working with my card. It's an AVM Fritz plug 'n play. Problems: - Harddrake doesn't recognize the card (Type is 27) - After setting Type, IRQ and IOPORT in /etc/isdn/profile/card/mycard manually, I tried to start /etc/rc.d/init.d/isdn4linux, which fails: It says, that the hisax module cannot be loaded. Now I noticed that isapnp.o was not loaded: modprobe isapnp (no errors) - Cat /proc/isapnp reports that the isdn-card is inactive Now more ideas. Just this: It worked by doing manually in LM 7.1. - I still notice that KPPP is shown on the Desktop. This is irrelevant for users of ISDN, etc. - I think that the ppp-rpm is required for doing ISDN (because of missing pap-secrets) - Sound is not working. The card (AWE32) is found, but when testing it reports errors (OPL/3 is busy or so). Also I do not hear anything, even if I don't get any errors. - LILO is loaded with option "hdd=ide-scsi". This is okay, since this device is a cd-burner. But the problem is that the ide-scsi module is not loaded automatically. After doing it manually everything works fine. - gcombust has no menu entry - gtoaster seems to be very outdated (I miss some buttons...) I also noticed that mp3info is needed for calculating track length. Why not a rpm-dependency so that mp3info must be installed to use gtoaster ? - I have a link on the kicker panel to "Mandrake Doc". But when I try to open this, KDE says that the file "/usr/share/applnk/Documentation/Mandrake Doc.desktop" does not exist. - I cannot start kcontrol. Clicking on it brings absolutely nothing. - I did an expert install and chose groups "KDE", "Multimedia" and "Games" and individual package choosing. I notice that GNOME-Audio is chosen, even if no GNOME is selected. Is there a dependency-problem ??? - DrakNet: When I want to set up an ISDN connection, I have to choose a provider. I would like to have a group "local" for every country which contains nationwide numbers... - After my installation, drakxservices show the entry for xinetd twice. Any idea why ??? - My printer (HP Deskjet 510) can be installed, but the test page is much too large. So I say "no" to the question and choose another driver. I took "HP Deskjet Series Cups 1.1" which worked well. - Harddrake lists my BT878 card twice. See the output of lspcidrake: --- Intel Corporation|440BX/ZX - 82443BX/ZX Host bridge (unknown ignore) Intel Corporation|440BX/ZX - 82443BX/ZX AGP bridge (unknown ignore) Intel Corporation|82371AB PIIX4 ISA (unknown unknown) Intel Corporation|82371AB PIIX4 IDE (STORAGE_IDE unknown) Intel Corporation|82371AB PIIX4 USB (SERIAL_USB usb-uhci) Intel Corporation|82371AB PIIX4 ACPI (unknown unknown) Brooktree Corporation|Bt878 (MULTIMEDIA_VIDEO bttv) Brooktree Corporation|Bt878 (MULTIMEDIA_OTHER bttv) Realtek|RTL-8029(AS) (NETWORK_ETHERNET ne2k-pci) Matrox|MGA G100 [Productiva] AGP (DISPLAY_VGA Card:Matrox Productiva G100 4MB) --- Thanks Michael

Re: [Cooker] Curious Issue with Beta and win98 (maybe)
The problem is that not even a win98 boot disk will work. win 98 just does not boot at all. [EMAIL PROTECTED] said: You may have damaged your main boot record on the hard drive. Try using a Windows 98 boot ( or Windows 98 emergency disk) that has FDISK on it. Try the command FDISK/MBR. By using the / MBR switch, it will replace the startup code of the beginning for the MBR(it will overwrite the Linux info).The Windows Partition info will be left in tact. After it replaces the startup code it will return you to the DOS prompt, just reboot.You can then try a fresh install of Linux. Before you start FDISK, check your CMOS to ensure that A: drive is in the boot order and selected. i.e.. boot order A:,C:, CD: etc.. Note: The /MBR switch is an undocumented feature of FDISK. -- +++ Allen Bolderoff [EMAIL PROTECTED] CTPC - Caffeine - get it here: http://www.coffee-tea-pots-cups.com/ +++ GPG fingerprint = CBB0 8626 702C 3D01 B5AD A54A DC2C 93B7 3E4B 6472 +++
[Cooker] Mandrake 7.1 UK, Linux magazine this month- S3 Trio graphics card bugs and Netscape crash
Hello people, Thought I might mention that the X server for this graphics card (the S3 Trio3D/2X) requires you to manually set the sw_cursor option to avoid having a big white square instead of the cursor (by editing the XF86config file) Is this something you could 'know' automatically? Because most Mandrake users wouldn't think to look through the XF86config and find the comment that tells you to set this option... Furthermore, it seems that the newest Netscape is still allergic to the typing of large comments into these textbox widgets (as in HTML text boxes) and ld-linux.so eventually manages to crash X-windows (as other users have suggested in the past). The only way to stop your computer from crashing totally is to notice the moment the mouse goes sluggish and killall -9 ld-linux.so.whatever it's called... this is probably an evil and unacceptable bug.

[Cooker] Kde2 + some minor bugs
1. Changing default icon on panel - Error: The desktop entry file has no type=...Entry. We've had this before. Chris knows what it's all about. 2. Right click on any text file - choose Open with - Text editor. It opens two kedit windows - one empty, and one with chosen text file. 3. Menuedit doesn't work. You can't launch it. 4. Kpackage (again :). When you open it, you get this error message: File not found:/root/Package Manager. Now, kpackage can load *rpm files, but still not install any.

[Cooker] Laptop distribution
Whilst I'm thinking about it, what about putting the /usr/doc and similar 'statics' on a CDrom and giving the CDrom along with a laptop distribution and a couple of scripts allowing you to mount this cd in place of your standard /usr/doc and similar folders? It saves a lot of space on your average distribution, and that gives you in essence an extra 600 megabytes of hard disk space to use. Admittedly this means you'll have a lot of documentation and static content that you might never have a use for, but hey, nothing's perfect. I found that this was the only way I could get a full-size distribution on one gigabyte of hard disk- relegate all non-essential information to existence on a CDrom. I don't see why you couldn't formalise this organisation on a future Mandrake distribution (but then I am as the two short planks, which is to say, dense) Em Tonkin
