 does anyone here got a rage128 or 3dfx?
 
 is it working properly with the latest XFree86-SVGA-3.3.6 or are you using the
 XFree86-Rage128 / XFree86-3dfx package?
 
 got one here and it works quite nicely... the purpose is to remove the unneeded(?)
 XFree86-Rage128 / XFree86-3dfx packages.

I have a new 3dfx Voodo3 3000 and it works well with SVGA-3.3.6 -
except that at shutdown, just before poweroff should happen, it goes
into a loop putting textlines on the display and must be stopped by a
4 second hold-down of the power button, ie power off.  The linux part
of the shutdown is all done, so there are no problems coming up
again.It really looks bad, though.

[Cooker] order of ypbind and autofs starting in rc.d

2000-04-01 Thread Stefan van der Eijk

Hi,

I'm having some issues with autofs lately on my just installed cooker
system. I've noticed that autofs is allowed to start befor ypbind. This
leaves autofs without automount maps.

[stefan@stefan rc.d]$ find | grep autofs
./init.d/autofs
./rc0.d/K85autofs
./rc1.d/K85autofs
./rc2.d/K85autofs
./rc3.d/S15autofs
./rc4.d/S15autofs
./rc5.d/S15autofs
./rc6.d/K85autofs

[stefan@stefan rc.d]$ find | grep bind
./init.d/ypbind
./rc0.d/K83ypbind
./rc1.d/K83ypbind
./rc2.d/K83ypbind
./rc3.d/S17ypbind
./rc4.d/S17ypbind
./rc5.d/S17ypbind
./rc6.d/K83ypbind

Could things be organised so that ypbind is started b4 autofs?

Thanks,

Stefan van der Eijk

[Cooker] MDK701 won't do graphical install with S3TRIO.

2000-04-01 Thread Direct Neural Interface

Hello,

I don't know if this is the right adress for this report.
But anyway,

The graphical install of Mandrake 7.0-1 (this isn't the Cooker, I know,
but maybe this isn't fixed yet in the Cooker) doesn't work on my
computer.
When, after initialising the cdrom, it goes to second stage install,
it says:

in second stage install
_X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno=111
_X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno=111
Gtk-WARNING**: cannot open display :0 at /usr/bin/perl-install/my-gtk.pm
line 139
install exited abnormally

Seems my graphics card don't get detected, it is an S3TRIO 64V2.
Never had problems with it in Redhat 5.2, 6.0 and Mandrake 6.0.
So I did a newt install.

Xconfigurator doesn't work good either, when trying to test X it says
"There is a problem with your X-server"
However, it does write the XF86config file and X does work ater using
the tool.

Processor: AMD K6 II
Sblive soundcard
ISA 56k modem
Gainward 5VPA Motherboard (VIA Chipset)

Any clues as to why this won't work ?

[Cooker] Man pages in XFree86-4.0-5mdk

[Cooker] FYI: Secure kernel install

2000-04-01 Thread Russell \Elik\ Rademacher

Hello.

Have anyone noticed that if you are using the Secure Kernel version, you
cannot go beyond 56 IP addresses on one network card?  Not sure if this is
the feature or not, but I was able to cram up to 200 IP addresses on one
network card, but not with 7.02 Secure Kernel version.

Anyone have simliar problems with this?

it should be fixed. Could you test with cooker to verify it?




[Cooker] Installation woes

2000-04-01 Thread David Walluck

I just installed 7.0-1, which I know has some installation problems. I had
some problems with X, and lilo, but I got it to install. Howver, when I go
to boot, it hung on "Creating /mnt/disk" so I rebooted, and it hung right
after mounting root (/dev/hda5). I gave it a good 5 minutes to do
something, but it won't. Any ideas?

Also, the lilo with the lba patch seems to not work on some drives (old
BIOSes that don't support LBA) and you get error 0x10. Why isn't the lba
patch fqalling back to Normal if that fails?
