[Cooker] How to report (Am I missing something?)
During the 9.0 Cooker cycle, I reported my bugs directly to the Cooker list and most of them got fixed. For 9.1, I reported them to Bugzilla--which seemed the right thing to do--and every one of them was completely ignored. This is frustrating. Am I missing something here? Please, what is the currently-accepted way to report bugs in Cooker?

[Cooker] Of cups and Kamppeters...
My LM9.0 SMP server locked up hard this evening, and I couldn't get it to boot and stay up. Booting into single-user and (after some research) doing "df -i" showed 650K out of 650K inodes in use. I tracked them down to /var/spool/cups/tmp. There were many, many, gs_* files there. (I wrote a script to remove them and it's been at it for several hours. Release 80K so far). I found many instances of the following in the logs: Oct 14 12:21:48 neuron ptal-mlcd: ERROR at ExMgr.cpp:2469, dev=, pid=1271, e=2 Couldn't find device: llioOpenOne failed!

Re: [Cooker] 9.0 BETA - Bug report / Bugs report - Stale NFS filehandle
I'm having the same problem. I have a CD that gives the Stale NFS file handle error when I try to access it (it mounts and unmounts ok). It works fine on my 8.2 machine.

[Cooker] 9.0b1 Install Comments
Installing on an IBM Thinkpad A22p that was running 8.2. The install went smoothly with the following caveats: 1. On the "Services Started at Boot" screen, the apmd info pages spells "battery" as "batery." 2. My Nautilus doesn't display HTML. Should nautilus-gtkhtml or nautilus-mozilla have gotten installed? (They didn't). 3. There isn't an RPM for gkrellm-plugins, as there was in 8.2. I d/l'ed and installed it from rpmfind, but it should be included. 4. My HP Officejet D135 printer was detected, but won't print. In /var/log/messages I see "lpadmin: add-printer failed: client-error-not-possible." The jobs appear to be processed properly, but nothing actually goes to the printer. The installer also detected my scanner and gave me a message saying I can scan by typing "scanimage -d hp:mic:usb:officejet_d_series". When I try it, nothing happens.

Re: [Cooker] Galeon-1.2.5 crashing like mad on forms
I've been having the same problem. I heard going to galeon 1.2.5-2 and mozilla 1.0.0-9 fixes the problem, but I compiled and installed the RPM sources and still get the crashes.
