[Cooker] sawmill-0.26-1mdk.i586.rpm is broken!

Re: [Cooker] XFree86 still a bit strange

2000-04-19 Thread Guillaume Cottenceau


 Start something like morph 3D from Mesa-demos. It will run at top speed
 for about 10 seconds, then it will slow to a crawl.
 
 Now move the mouse around, anywhere on the screen will do. Morph 3D will
 run at full speed again as long as the mouse is moving. Stop moving the
 mouse at it will slow to a crawl again !
 
 It appears that all Mesa 3D demos, 3D screensavers etc. all slow to a
 crawl after about 10 seconds

I tried it on a Mandrake 7.0 heavily cookerized, Riva128, no problem.

On Cooker, S3-Trio / SVGA server, no problem.


Mesa-3.1-11mdk, tried the menu entries Multimedia/Graphics.


I think this may come from your X server.. What is it ?

Short answer: you can't. Pure numerals are reserved for UIDs.

If you really want such user names, then preceed them with an
underscore, for example - ie _04135

Also note that user names are limited to 8 chars.

  Hi!
 
  I have found out that I am not able to install Mandrake 7.0 on machine

  try to probe PCI...but I HAVE to probe because of SCSI disk...
 
 that was the pci probe. Seems like that's not the pci that freezes your box, but
 the insmod of the module :(
Hi!

I have play around a little and the found out the following:

The problem is IN THE "insmod_ /tmp/initio.o"

I have tried to start installation and the manually extracted module to
/tmp and tried to manually
load it with insmod_ initio.o, SUPRISE SUPRISE: Controler is detected,
BUT THEN insmod just WON'T EXIT!
It freezes!! Other consoles run along but insmod freezes...

Since I know this controler works just GREAT normally I tried and loaded
same module with "insmod -f" under
my running kernel. Everything worked OK! Even if module I used was
compiled for the "installation" kernel

I think the problem must be in some option in the installation kernel.
Is the PROBE ALL LUN'S on (scsi)?? I think this caused problems when I
turned it on in the kernel somewhere in the past...

Bye, Alen

[Cooker] Fresh install

I know the dhcp server since everyone uses it. I also know the net card module works

 Hi everybody,
 
 I just come from a friend who installed Mandrake 7.02 on his machine.
 He made a full install (all packages). Everytime he tried to use gv
 to look to a ps-file he got an error, "x11alpha" unknown device.
 
 First I did'nt find the error until I realized the full install had 
 placed:
 
  * ghostscript-PrintOnly
  * ghostscript-X
  * ghostscript-Both
 
 on his hard-disk and the gs symlink was set to /usr/bin/gs-pr.

Ok this has been fixed for the last ghostscript upload to cooker.

The best ghostscript-XXX is now chosen.

[Cooker] attempt to install latest failed

Using the network install right after the second stage install I get a
signal 9 and then the install stops. 

on terminal 3 it says 

symlink /tmp/stage2 failed

there doesn't appear to be any other errors.


Also is there some kind of minimum ram requirements. The machine that
I'm trying to install to only has 24 megs of ram.

You'd better download locally (on an ext2 partition) and do a hd install.
