[Cooker] Unofficial KDE update rpm's - Updated
Hello, I have created a set of KDE 2.0 rpm's that include the latest KDE CVS fixes. These are un-official because they have not gone through testing and definatly have not gone through the regular release cycle. In other words, if it breaks don't blame Mandrake. If it works and looks better, and is an improvement send a nice note to my boss :-) You can find these RPM's at: ftp://nebsllc.com/pub/KDE_UPDATE also will be available at any ftp.kde.org mirror once they make it through the distribution. You will need to install libical (in the same directory) and pilot-link from your 7.2 CD's in order to install kdepim. If you choose to use them you do so at your own risk. Again, don't blame me if anything breaks! Please report all bugs to the kde team using Help -- Report Bugs from any KDE application. They are meant for a Mandrake 7.2 system. They will NOT run on the current cooker platform, but that's OK I updated those last night as well. If your menus and icons look messed up after installing these rpm's exit KDE, and as root run "update-menus" give it a few minutes and restart kde. To those of you "cooker's" that tested them - THANKS! I have updated kdegames and a few of the other packages as well - notice the x.1mdk on the version numbers. There was a whole bunch of Java fixes checked in yesterday and these include these fixes. You Java experts may want to look at them. -Chris

[Cooker] Success with NVidia feedback [ NVidia driver for Linux/XFree86 ]
Hello everybody, I know that's not the answer all we are waiting for [open-sourced Nvidia driver], but it's very good indication that it's possible to get answer from hardware vendor when you write letter to them (and resend it after one week later, CC: Marketing, Sales, as I did yesterday ;-). I still have no answer from ATI (as I mentioned, I have ATI Rage Mobility in my notebook), that's very bad indicator :- in short, NVidia driver -needs 2.4 kernel -doesn't support TV out -has SRPMs on the webpage (??, see below) -HDTV output will be available when TV Out is ready -has no DVD playback (utility), suggestion to use 3rd party utilities which are not ready yet I am rather surprised to hear that: "MPG compression is also a feature of the video editting cards, and isn't controlled by our video card" As far as I know ASUS cards (on NVidia chip) support Video-In, therefor can be classified as "video editing cards" Are there any owners of Happauge (i belive that's the spelling) video cards on list?

We do have SRPMs on the webpage that you can use though. The majority of the SRPM is allready precompiled but there are some parts that will be compiled on your system. As far as the features, currently the drivers do not support the TV out. TV in will be handled by your TV card. I would recomend a 2.4 test kernel for this as it supports the TV cards better. This support is provided by the linux kernel and is not through our video card drivers. If the linux support doesnt work for your tv card, you may want to check with the manufacturer of the tv card. Our drivers do work with the Video for Linux module though so you can use the capabilities provided by xfree 4.0.1. Currently there is no legal dvd software for linux. Intervideo and several companies are working on DVD software for linux, and that will work with our drivers when its released. The LinDVD software will provide full screen and windowed mode and will work with our drivers. MPG compression is also a feature of the video editting cards, and isn't controlled by our video card. I havent had any experience with this so Im not sure what support Linux has for it. I know the 2.4 kernel has some character devices in the kernel options itself for such a beast, but I have not tried them. HDTV output will be available pretty much the same time as the tv out. Unfortunately I dont have a time frame yet on those. Hopefully this answers most of your questions. If you have any more, please feel free to email us. As far as the video editting goes, I would recomend checking around and find out what the current 2.4 kernel supports as far as video editting cards goes. Im not even sure what software is available for linux currently to do that. Also check into xawtv. I use this for my tv card at home and work, and this has some good capture signals. This will allow hdtv in and tv in (depends on which module you buy.)

Re: [Cooker] kernel-2.4.0
First tests on 2.4.0-0.1 ACPI is broken. It does not compile Alsa has problems on the src.rpm. It fails some linkings to isapnp headers. On the other side, while compiling from kernel-source, Alsa has problems initializing the card. tvaudio.o module fails dependencies Compiled on gcc 2.96 + glibc 2.2. and a note. I think that having headers independently from the orginal tree is "bad idea" (TM). I have seen during the years several attempts to give a more beautiful view of the surrealistic links asmlinux. At least, on Slackware there were a few moves on that side. However it is enough to have a kernel with some "new features" to break everything down. Many people may not be aware of the situation and consequently fail miserably on compiling their programs. Sincerly I would strongly recomend not to do the move. Having duplicates of one and the same group of kernel headers can be of deadly consequences. Just imagine a small patch in a filesystem... Ektanoor

XF4 (and not XF3) ("xdpyinfo | grep Mandrake")
XFree86-glide-module
/sbin/lsmod | grep tdfx
It is unclear to me if Voodoo 4/5 are supported by Mandrake 7.2.
If this support was removed due to beta status of drivers, then the method
described on linux.3dfx.com should be used at "users own risks".
Else, what changed in 7.2 compared to 7.2b1 with this regard.
I have a Voodoo 5 and a fresh install of Mandrake 7.2 (SMP kernel).
The above elements are in place (XF4.01, module loaded, proper Glide) but
accelerated GL is not available.

[Cooker] Plex86 news
Has anyone noted these news on Plex's site?: " Plex86 now runs Windows95 on my Linux-Mandrake box, in full virtualization mode!!! That adds Windows95 to the plex86 project's previous list of guest operating systems which it can run: MSDOS, FreeDOS, and Linux".

You're quite right, Ron - I hadn't tried to change the page size - but then you don't have to. At the bottom of the Print dialog, in PostScript Options, select "Fit to Page" and it'll do just that - if your printer is A4 as mine is too, it prints A4 perfectly.

[Cooker] 7.2 on Dell Laptops - solutions to X problems
For information to the Mandrake team :-) The ATI Rage Mobility P graphics devices on the Dell Inspiron range of laptops seem to be upset by the X configuration generated by the installation process. Symptoms are: the system completely freezes (can't even be ping'd) when the screen is placed in the low power state. There seems to be two 100% effective workarounds: (1) Select Xfree 3.3.6 and not V4 (2) Select V4 and then manually edit the config file - comment out the "option DPMS" line. Also on these machines the framebuffer kernel does not seem to inter-operate with either XFree 3 or 4 properly. After leaving the Xconfiguration during the install process, the framebuffer display is completely unreadable - it looks like it wraps around on itself. This is also a problem if you choose to boot with Aurora - when you shut the machine down you get a hideous flashing screen, likewise if you try the virtual consoles. This is a problem which still needs a fix! Thanks to Vadim Plessky, Chmouel Boudjnah and Franco Silvestro for their helpful and useful suggestions. /Kevin -- Kevin J.

Re: [Cooker] 7.2 on Dell Laptops - solutions to X problems
I have MD 7.2 installed on an Inspirion 5000 with the ATI Rage Mobility P using XF 4. I have had no video problems at all. If fact, MD was one of the only dists.that I didn't have video problems with. The only problem I have run into is that I have a USB mouse attached and sometimes it seems to get locked up. Usually just unplugging it and plugging it back in will fix it, but once in a while I'll have to reboot. My notebook has the ATI with 4MB video RAM. I don't know if you have the 4MB or the upgraded 8MB video. That could be the difference.

[Cooker] mozilla-5.0.0-0.M18.4mdk
I spent several hours last night trying to rebuild this RPM on my 7.2 box (a P200). While compilation did complete (with numerous warnings) and an RPM was generated, subsequent installation of the RPM left me with a Mozilla that terminates instantly with a segfault. Interestingly, this condition repairs itself after being run once as root. Perhaps a warning in the package description that the binary must be run by root before it will function for others is in order? This segfault (in mozilla) also caused what appeared to be a crash in Galeon 0.8 (also recompiled on my box), so the difficulty must be somewhere in the parts of mozilla that Galeon uses. -- Anton GrahamGPG ID: 0x18F78541 [EMAIL PROTECTED] RSA key available upon request Clothes make the man.

[Cooker] KDE2 doesnt work in Swedish
I have prevously sent an email about kde and swedish but it seems to have been lost. I'll try again. I have been testing the latest 7.2 and found that if I install using swedish then Kde hardly works at all. The min, max and close buttons are missing from windows. Opening a terminal and several other programs causes segfaults. Installing in english works fine but if I try to change kde to swedish then the problems start again. The default fonts also look really bad after the change. Regards Kenneth
