Aren't we supposed to be testing the Mandrake stuff :-) If Mandrake's KDE 2.1 depends on 'Mandrake's menu and menudrake' and this isn't working isn't there a problem ? Having rpm -e --nodeps menu and menudrake and then reinstalling kdebase-2.1-0.20010102.1mdk the problem is still there. Even using KDE's kmenuedit doesn't work.

[Cooker] PCMCIA problems
Hello, I have a Future Domain PCMCIA SCSI 1 card. This card worked fine with the kernel-pcmcia-cs 2.2.18 kernel, but not with the 2.4 kernel. On inserting the card the following is output : scsi: Usage: fdomain=,[,] scsi: Bad LILO/INSMOD parameters? scsi: Cannot locate chip at port base 0x0 scsi: Bad LILO/INSMOD parameters? Try to free nonexistant resource <0140 - 014F> With the 2.2.18 kernel the card was reported as using port base 0x140 and IRQ 9. So far all I've managed to achieve by editing the /etc/pcmcia/config file is to disable the PCMCIA services all together !!! Please could anyone tell me what I should be doing to get this card working ? Thanks, Owen

[Cooker] 2nd ISO image
Why is the 2nd ISO image larger than any CDs? I used the 72beta_mkcd.sh to create the ISOs and the first one is 648MB but the second one is 749MB!!

[Cooker] Kernel 2.4, reiserfs and RAID?
Hello! I remember reading somewhere that reiserfs doesn't play along very well in a software RAID0 set. Does this still hold true for Kernel 2.4? PS: This is a resend.

[Cooker] Install on a AcerNote Light
Hello! I've got an AcerNote Light notebook. This notebook does only have a parallel port cd-rom and no network card. Is there a way I can install Cooker onto it? How about a parallel port / serial port null-modem? Would this work? Does anyone have an idea about how to do this?

Mine works as: daemon --check xfs xfs -droppriv -port -1 -daemon Would it be nicer to do the xfs -droppriv to run xfs as user xfs ? -- J.A.
