[Cooker] XFree86 4.0
I installed XFree86 from the 4.0-2 rpm's from Cooker. It runs ok if I put the font paths in XFree86Config. If I only put a fontpath of "unix/:-1" it fails to connect to xfs. Has anyone else seen this?

Re: [Cooker] Helix-Code Gnome
Hey! The dependency problems are no big deal... Things still work. What's more painful is the bugs relating to the desktop icons and launchers. I found downgrading to the original Mandrake 7.0 gmc fixes lots of problems with helix gnome. In other words, don't use helix code's gmc, use gnome's original... cheers! Patrick Michael Gallagher wrote: Hi, Has anyone had any luck with installing Helix-Code Gnome on Madrake 7.0? I gave it a try, downloading the packages and then installing, but had some problems. A couple dependency problems and that I couldn't correct, libguile.so.4 and libbfd-2.91.0.24.so. When I finished the install and tried Gnome I had a run of problems. Most noticibly that the icons on the desktop were all screwed up. I no longer had harddrive icons, just folder short cuts, as with all the Mandrake icons. Is there anyway to keep the icons? I figure that they're lost when upgrading Gnome, but is there anyway to prevent this? I'm hoping that if I go through and solve the dependencies I'll be all set. I also noticed that I couldn't add any clocks to the panel. If I did, the panel would lock up. Again I'm wondering if the dependencies are causing this. I found the files that I think I needed afterwards when I was reinstalling Gnome from the orginal Mandrake files. I was just curious if anyone else had given it a try. Thanks. ~Mike

[Cooker] The definitive proof of, and test for, the Mandrake 7.0 mkisofs bug
Ok, for all you skeptics out there . . . or just developers who need a test case . . . check out http://hammer.prohosting.com/~babbleon There there's a link to my "mkisofs test program," a .tgz file that contains a test program that tests to see if your verison of mkisofs is correct or not. The Linux-Mandrake .rpm, including the latest from cooker, flunks the test, but the .tgz file from the actual mkisofs home page passes, even though they are both verion 1.12. This test contains a modified version of the test case I've mentioned before, munged so that nobody can (I hope) get to the information inside (which happens to be copyrighted, thus the issue of getting to the contents), along with a perl script that automates the process of creating the file system and then accessing it with the loopback device and comparing to the original file. You must have perl installed and loopback device in the kernel, but these are usually present in Mandrake distributions so this shouldn't be a problem. Hopefully this will this problem to get fixed soon in the cooker distribution. It will also help you see if you have the problem; if you do, you need to do something about it or you may have data corruption in those backup disks you are making! -- I am "Brian, the man from babble-on" (Brian T.

[Cooker] Re: [expert] Question on process / how things get into Mandrake
I'm afraid that I don't ever seem to make myself clear . . . What I'm really trying to ask is . . . How can I find out whether a given issue has been addressed in the cooker / future Mandrake distribution, or not? Questions like "is the mkisofs package still causing data corruption?" are easily answered: I just download the latest "cooker" mkisofs package and test it. (I did, and it's not fixed, but I just posted about that with every programmer's favorite thing, a reproducable, self-verifying test case.) But questions like "is the installation program still incorrectly limiting you to filling only 50% of the partition, even when /usr is on a seperate partition?" are not possible to answer emperically like this unless you have significant resources (a throwaway test computer and a fast connection) that I don't happen to have handy. I have this long list of installation issues; I sent them to civilme in individual mail and he was kind enough to answer some of them but I'd like some means other than bothering kind individuals to answer questions of what is and isn't addressed already in the upcoming edition. And I'm still a bit confused about how information and fixes flow from the expert list to the cooker list to the cooker RPMs to the official Mandrake distribution. I'll be happy to RTFM if somebody will just point me to TFM. I figure there's surely some database of fixes applied already that I could just search through? Or am I completely confused about the process that would be involved here? On Sat, 18 Mar 2000, you wrote: | - Original Message - | From: Brian T.

comment out lines 1326 and 1327
it will make refference to server down
you must have the latest cvs for these lines to corespond.
you want to comment out the two lines that I have marked with the ---

At least 90% of Mandrake customers suffer from this Qt 2.02 (or 2.1, for the cvs) + Licq Qt plugin issue. If someone starts this project u described above , I'm pretty sure it will increase the popularity of mdk distro. hacklicq+date would be nice , thus it's constantly in development and many important features and bugfixes (like this AOL trick on Licq clients) , even *unstable*, are only avaiable in the cvs snapshots. And sorry for the terrible english :) just let Me know if the srpms will be accepted this time and what the offical versioning should be and i will be happy to post and matain the hacklicq , I would be able to do prolly a nightly build or something to that affect if needed. -John

It just sucks to have to download a whole source RPM (thinking of the kernel here) just to see what the spec file is going to do when it's possible that the binary RPM will be just what I want. Can we have the spec files in their own directory for easy retrieval? You can already access them by the CVS server of cooker. The module is SPECS/package or contrib-SPECS/package. Each module contains the spec file and the patches. Almost cool!! When I check out "SPECS" (into local directory Mandrake-SPECS) I get not only spec files but (sometimes large) patches for the package as well. The command I am using is: cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/cvs/cooker co -d Mandrake-SPECS SPECS So it would still be nice to have a browsable directory (or cvs module) with *just* spec files in it. I want for instance just the kernel spec file. How do I know what to check out to get just the spec file? A web interface to the CVS repository is in preparation. Stay tuned. You can now browse the CVS repositories (Cooker and Lothar) from http://www.linux-mandrake.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi The spec files are in the SPECS or contrib-SPECS modules. -- Fred - May the source be with you
Re: [Cooker] suggsetion for bash
"geoffrey lee" [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: bash 2.04 stable is out. since bash is now on 21mdk...i was wondering if when it's updated to 2.04 from 2.03, would it be better if it's 0.1mdk? if bash-2.04 is the stable why not 1mdk ?
