Re: [Cooker] trying to upgrade from mandrake 8.1 to cooker destroyed lvm
That was it! Thanks! I also agree that there should be a console/log for rpmdrake. The logging should be a default and the console an option. --- pascal <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I had the same problem with PATH and X11R6. It is > msec related.

Re: [Cooker] trying to upgrade from mandrake 8.1 to cooker destroyed lvm
I had the same problem with PATH and X11R6. It is msec related. Look for *.rpmnew in /etc/profile.d and replace old files with rpmnew files. Always check *.rpmnew files when updating RPMS. RPM try to be conservative and does not replace user configuration files in general. But this can be a problem when new functionnalities are introduced or old ones modified. URPMI shows warning messages about files not beeing replaced BUT RPMDRAKE DOES NOT REPORT THEM WHICH IS A PITY :) RPMDRAKE SHOULD DISPLAY A WINDOW SHOWING CONSOLE OUTPUT OF INSTALLATION.

Re: [Cooker] trying to upgrade from mandrake 8.1 to cooker destroyed lvm
that worked... :-} the question is still what failed and how should it be fixed? I suspect it might be a msec issue... but I am at msec 1 and was at msec 3. I believe that 1 is pretty low security although I am not sure. The reason I suspect msec is that I noticed an area where it set the path to /usr/X11R6/bin in /etc/profile.d/msec.csh and msec.sh. --- jerry white <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > SI Reasoning wrote: > > > > For some reason /usr/X11R6/bin does not appear to > be > > in the path.

Re: [Cooker] trying to upgrade from mandrake 8.1 to cooker destroyed lvm
another bizarre clue. I cannot enter into kde from a user account from either the console (startx and every other command coming from /usr/X11R6/bin is not recognized unless you include the full pathand then it will kick out on the next executable called), or from init 5 logon (dcopserver errors). I have also tried connecting as a thin client to this server remotely with the same results. However, if I ssh into the computer remotely as a user, and then type startx, it will work properly and bring up X and kde properly ON THE SERVER (broken computer I have been speaking about) not the remote computer I actually typed the command on. This is just too strange for my brain Why would a remote connection have no problem with initializing startx or other files located within /usr/X11R6/bin as a user but the console on the actual server refuses? --- SI Reasoning <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > For some reason /usr/X11R6/bin does not appear to be > in the path.

Re: [Cooker] trying to upgrade from mandrake 8.1 to cooker destroyed lvm
For some reason /usr/X11R6/bin does not appear to be in the path. I even manually added it to /etc/rc.sysinit and rebooted but it had no effect. What would cause that. What package normally sets these things. I may be able to uninstall/re-install and resolve the problem. --- SI Reasoning <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > for some reason I can no longer access kde with > users. > I get the dcopserver error.

Re: [Cooker] trying to upgrade from mandrake 8.1 to cooker destroyed lvm
for some reason I can no longer access kde with users. I get the dcopserver error. It works fine with root. I even uninstalled kde and qt and reinstalled because of the png issue. Also, when I try to startx as user (works in root) I get the following message: [sczjd@sidereal sczjd]$ startx Authentication failed - cannot start X server. --- SI Reasoning <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I dumped mandrake's lvm and installed one from > http://www.comedia.it/bluca/lvm/ > This got lvm back up.

Re: [Cooker] trying to upgrade from mandrake 8.1 to cooker destroyed lvm
I dumped mandrake's lvm and installed one from http://www.comedia.it/bluca/lvm/ This got lvm back up.
