[Cooker] Cooker Full Install - older packages

1999-09-30 Thread Mandrake Bugs

The apache package is 1.3.6, and the mod_perl package is 1.19 - both 
obsolete by their newer counterparts in Helios/6.1.

I might be confused here, but shouldn't cooker be 'the latest' version and
then some? It seems to still largely be based on 6.0, and then some, and
limping behind 6.1 in terms of some of the packages.



[Cooker] New rpm package

1999-09-30 Thread Olivier DUGEON - FT.CNET/BD/DAC/ARP

Hi,

I made some rpm package : a2ps, gthemes (Gnome themes) for mandrake.
Where can i put them?

For who's made rpm package this emacs mode is pretty good :
http://www.xemacs.org/~stigb/rpm-spec-mode.el

Mandrake Team can you put it in the distro?

Olivier

No problem, I just figured I would provide my impressions of the install.

Alright, I'll just revert back to 6.0, and wait until your merge is done.

 Just bear withs us ;)

I'll be writing up some more impressions and ideas in the meantime.

 Hhum, 4 billion are equal to 2^32 which are equal to 4,294,967,296.
 Most graphic cards with 8 megs ore more should do that.

 According to my (german) English-Dictionary should the english billion
 compared to the german "Milliarde" what is 1,000,000,000.

 Well, I don't understand the details behind that, but Xconfigurator
 shows an option for "32-Bit Colors" and many people think of it as
 4,294,967,296 colors (alias 4 billion colors) :-).

32-bit means 32 bits-per-pixel (bpp).  I would disagree that many people
think of it as 4 billion colors:  32 bpp includes three separate color
components, red, green, and blue, and possibly transparency (alpha) also.
So total colors is approximately '4 billion / 4' or '4 billion / 3',
depending on how the colormap is set up.

Regards,

Jeff

 well the problem is that 32bpp allow transparency which 24bpp does not allow.
 so even if visually 24bpp is the max number of colors in 32bpp you have *more*
 colors...

Some cards support three color components in 32bpp, giving
better-than-24-bpp resolution.

 Yep, some of the more facinating forms of 'loss in translation'

 billion = milliarde
 trillion = billiarde?

No, it's Billion :-
The idea is that in german you always switch between
{mi-,bi-,tri-,quadri-,...} "-llion" and "-lliarde".
In english you don't have the "-lliarde", so you progress much faster.

 How does the progression go in German?

 Never understood why salt (NaCL0

Shouldn't that be NaCl?

 is 'natrium' in the rest of the world, and

 'sodium' in English speaking countries (while the chemical sign is 'Na' -
 but I digress :-)

Well, the chemical sign "C" stands for "Kohlenstoff" (carbon) in german, and
"O" stands for "Sauerstoff" (Oxygenium). So this isn't exactly intuitive,
too. (The chemical symbols are from the latin words, so they are propably
most intuitive in italian?).

[Cooker] Is the Tekram dc-390u2w Supported?

1999-09-30 Thread Jake Johnson

I was wondering if the Mandrake 6.1 or cooker is
supporting the Tekram dc-390u2w card.  Really I was
hoping that someone was using it for reasurance
reasons.  It has the symbios chipset so I think it
will work but will autoprobe find it?  Please add some
insight to this if you know of anything about these
cards. 
Thanks in advance,

Re: [Cooker] Is the Tekram dc-390u2w Supported?

I am currently using this card with an IBM DRVS 10,000 RPM Ultra2 LVD SCSI
Drive - works great, but the current drivers do not support the 80 MB / sec
only 40 MB /sec - still good enough for my purposes.  The installation
should autodetect the controller and recognizes the NCR / Symbios Logic
chipset.  Hope this helps!!

[Cooker] kde2 and kdenlightenment

1999-09-30 Thread webmedic

Tried both of these. They are very interesting. I think I will
use kfm and enlightenment for a while it runs faster than kwm
and seems to be just as stable. Plus I get all the enlightenment
goodies. 

About kde2; it seems that it would be more stable than this. It
must run at least a little bit seeing as how there are
screen shots up on the kde website. When I tried it however the
panel segfaults at startup and most everything else won't even
run. It complains about missing png's and what not.

The kde interface in E is pretty good now.. But it is missig what I see as a
biggie.. it doesn't take into account that the panel should be reducing the
client area available to programs.. when they are maximized they are partly
under the panel wich is annoying to say the least.
