Re: [Cooker] Panoramix: Keyboard / language selection
The reason why I use a QWERTY keyboard is because I learned myself to touch type on a commodore 64. In all the companies I have seen already PC's had AZERTY keyboards. Now I work in a training center and not even 1 percent of the Flemish people comes and asks for a QWERTY keyboard, whereas the Dutch always ask for an other keyboard. So there are companies where QWERTY is used, but they are very few. Of course there are individuals like me who prefer QWERTY as well, but you can't say they are a majority.

Sorry for taking this long - didn't have much time to look into anything
lately.
The way it looks, it's not a bug, it's a feature. Preprocessing got more
intelligent.
linux/if.h gets struct sockaddr stuff from linux/socket.h, which does
something about struct sockaddr only
#if defined(__KERNEL__) || !defined(__GLIBC__) || (__GLIBC__ < 2)
which is not the case.
Any application including is broken anyway (portability);
unless it's VERY system-specific stuff, it should include
instead.

[Cooker] Boot Images
There is a problem with the standard boot images which needs to be resolved. boot.img, bootnet.img, and (probably) pcmcia.img. These are kernel 2.2.10 images which bork the insmod processes during the install. For instance, my tries fail whenever I try to install lilo, create a boot disk, or install networking. The solution as M. Priilot has suggested would be to make a new set of boot images based on 2.2.11. Thanks All! Mike C.

Re: [Cooker] Guile dependencies
With pleasure Pablo,
% rpm -q guile
guile-1.3.2a-1mdk
% strace guile > & AAA
% grep ice-9/boot-9 AAA | grep 1.3.2
stat("/usr/share/guile/1.3.2/ice-9/boot-9.scm", 0x7894) = -1 ENOENT (No
such file or directory)
stat("/usr/share/guile/1.3.2/ice-9/boot-9.scm.scm", 0x7894) = -1 ENOENT
(No such file or directory)
Indeed,
% ls /usr/share/guile/
1.3.2a/ site/ slib@
Hope you get what you need,
Not an emergency (at least for me). I linked /usr/lib/libguile.so.4 to
libguile.so.5.0.0 and it seems to be Ok.

[Cooker] Testers for PPA needed
Kaixo ! Deos some of you have a HP710/720/820/1000 printer ? Yes, those Windows-only printers made by Hewlett Packard. I made an rpm of 'ppa' from Tim Norman and the necessary changes to rhs-printfilters and printtool to enable choosing the printer from the list in printtool, and having the print filters properly call pbm2ppa. Now as I haven't such a printer I can't test it... Quality shouldn't be very good; but that is an improvement from the "nothing at all" that prevailed before. -- Ki ça vos våye bén, Pablo Saratxaga http://www.ping.be/~pin19314/ PGP Key available, key ID: 0x8F0E4975
RE: [Cooker] Neomagic Video Issues?
Hello, Now that I am back in town I has started testing more. Here is the situation. I have a Dell XPI 133CD with a Neomagic 2093 Rev2 (NeoMagic 128 ZV). During Phase 2 install of Cooker, I get a Fatal Server Error: No valid modes found. There is no defined dot-clock matching mode "640x480". I have a full operational version of Mandrake 6.0 running on this same system. I have copied the /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XF86Config file and rgb.txt from my operation version to the ../cooker/Mandrake/mdkinst/usr/X11R6/lib/X11 dir with still no luck.

[Cooker] Is Mandrake 6.1b Cooker and how to install?
I am doing this completely from StarOffice and Linux. First time off the NT machine for mail! Hope it works! Yesterday, on the Boston miror, I found a directory, 6.1b. Is this cooker? How do I install this? How do I update my existing Mandrake system with all of the dependecies? For instance, I boot directly into KDE so how would I update the KDE stuff? The X stuff? I am foreced to download all these files one by one through Netscape and FTP. Any help greatly appreciated!
[Cooker] Kernel source dependencies
Hello all, A small thought the kernel-source package dependencies. After a custom install, I wanted to recompile a kernel.

[Cooker] Suggestion regarding RPM packaging
I just ran 'rpm -Va' on a vanilla Mandrake 6 installation. It's rather a mess. For example: - There are a stack of missing ncurses libraries which the RPM thinks should exist. - There appears to be a missing symlink in /usr/lib (libhistory.so.4.0 -> libhistory.so.4). This is part of readline. Plus many other errors. I suggest that before Cooker goes out the door someone should look at all this stuff - there could be some important things which are missing.

If the device in /etc/fstab is '/dev/fd[0-9]*' then a nice floppy icon is used; for all others there is the standard 'block device icon'; not very beautiful nor meaningful. What are the standard names in /mnt on a mandrake ? Maybe I can patch a little gmc so it uses the zip-drive icon when the mount point is /mnt/zip, for example. BTW, the script for KDE should be chandes also imho, and not search for 'vfat' but rather search for 'noauto' in options; indeed, there is no real need to have an icon for the windows partition on the hard drive if it is mounted at boot time; and miss an icon to mount ext2 ZIP drives... There isn't either much sense to add an icon to mount/unmount a drive if the user doesn't have the right to do it. Searching for 'user' in the /etc/fstab would be the best imho: the user can do it, and they are likely to be removable ones (as non removable ones are generally mounted at boot time and not unmounted until shutdown) -- Ki ça vos våye bén, Pablo Saratxaga http://www.ping.be/~pin19314/ PGP Key available, key ID: 0x8F0E4975

If it's not a Usenet group then it makes life hell for those who live behind firewalls. For example, Linuxworld.com have a news server for their discussion forums and they get many, many requests to provide a web gateway so firewalled people can get at them. Ditto news.mozilla.org.
