Re: [Cooker] weird process

2001-01-10 Thread Michael Neumann

 I have a process running on my Cooker machine that starts running as
 soon as I log into Gnome and continuously uses about 40% of the CPU even
 if I do nothing.  The process is kapm-idled and it is process id 3.  I
 can't find a binary anywhere on the system with this name. Can anyone
 tell me what this is and how I can kill it? It seems to have started
 since I upgraded to kernel 2.4.

It seems it is a powersaving feature of the kernel. Its active if
APM support is compiled in (i never do compile in APM support, so
its just a guess :-)).

This is an excerpt from /usr/src/linux/Documentation/Configure.help:

Enable APM at boot time
CONFIG_APM_DO_ENABLE
  Enable APM features at boot time. From page 36 of the APM BIOS
  specification: "When disabled, the APM BIOS does not automatically
  power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
  State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
  This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
  feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
  should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
  will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
  this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
  support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
  this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba
  T400CDT. This is off by default since most machines do fine without
  this feature.

Do CPU IDLE calls
CONFIG_APM_CPU_IDLE
  Enable calls to APM CPU Idle/CPU Busy inside the kernel's idle loop.
  On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as
  a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
  are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
  333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or
  whenever the CPU becomes idle. (On machines with more than one CPU,
  this option does nothing.)

[Cooker] 2.4 kernel won't mount reiserfs

2001-01-10 Thread Andre . Anneck

Hi there,

It has been a while since I worked my way through tailoring the kernel to my
own needs,
mainly because I didnt need to since I am using Mandrake ;). Anyways, I
patched the 2.4
kernel with the latest reiserfs patch for 2.4, compiled the kernel with
reiserfs. (not as a module)
And trying to boot it stops saying 
"VFS: could not mount root on 03:09"

Yes I did "lilo" and yes I did update the lilo to be the latest version
(some previous one had problems mouting reiserfs).

My /boot is still ext2fs, but all other devices are reiserfs formated.

The I tried to make a boot-image with "mkinitrd", was easy.. but... now I am
getting the hang after
"Loading reiserfs module.
 ELF: not enough memory to execute...bla"

I have been browsing the cooker, and some online sources for my specific
problem. But most
informations are only concerned with mounting /boot partitions (which
works).

Any ideas?

Take care,

Andre

 Cooker is now 3 CDs, I must update the rpmlist to reflect the correct

Does that mean we might see a DVD Rom version when it goes to market?  (I
think Suse does this now).  It would be a lot easier not to have to switch
between 3 disks during an install.

Just a thought.

 You can upgrade via rpm. I have done several times. But you also need to
 upgrade your glibc, no way out. So:
 - get and install from cooker: glibc22, glibc22-devel, nscd, ldconfig
 db1, db2, db3, and install all at the same time with rpm -U *.rpm.
 This way you will not see any dependency problems.
 - get popt, rpm and install them.
 - do a 'rpm --rebuilddb'
 

I try this, but the pb. is that the new rpm is in version 4 which is not
readable by rpm version 3. So how can i start ? is glibc, db*, rpm and
all are available in rpm version 3 ?

NO, your problem is a _very poor_ overclock. Running HDD's on a PCI

even be able to run at all with anything but IBM, or Quantum HDD's.
Either set the FSB to 100 to get a 100/3 pci, or no higher than 75

 unclearly attempting to talk about?).

My point is that you shouldn't choose to mount the windows partions at all, 
that way you don't give the installer the chance to format them.

[Cooker] duplicate ethernet

2001-01-10 Thread Pierre Fortin

This issue probably belongs here as a heads up for kernel 2.4.0...

Running LM7.2 with kernel 2.4.0 gives the problem outlined below.  Rebooting
with a stock LM7.2 gives the proper setup for my 2 ethernets...

Usually I post my bug reports to bugzilla; but this is not yet a Mandrake bug
unless someone can reproduce it within cooker.  Let me know if I should bugzilla
it anyway...

Regards,
Pierre

Hello there,

you seem to have a prb with the HTML-Mason package.
Do you really use Mason components for your web developpement ?

if this is not the case you should uninstall the Mason package.

also what version are you using ?

I've installed a brand new cooker and I don't seem to have these prb here...

Re: [Cooker] Cooker Install Failure

Johan,

 My point is that you shouldn't choose to mount the windows partions at all, 
 that way you don't give the installer the chance to format them.

Your point remains totally lost on me.  The sentence above makes no
sense, sorry!

You seem to this writer to probably have some basic miscomprehension
of what mounting is.  I hope it clears up.  Mounting is an operating
system software function, not a hardware function.

Re: [Cooker] Cooker Install Failure

2001-01-10 Thread Vincent Meyer

Yes, but in my case my computer is dual-boot, and most of my old data
is on that windows partition.  Previous versions would recognise the
windows partition, and default to a mount point of /mnt/windows.  The
current installer will bomb with that, but is fine if the mount point 
is left blank - so that the partition is ignored.  It would be nice
if the windows partition CAN be mounted - just not formatted.

[Cooker] all_rsync.pl perl download script has been updated

2001-01-10 Thread Ron Stodden

My all_rsync.pl perl download script has been updated to include the
new 'unsupported' directory and provide selective RPM upnaming by
tree.   

The three necessary files can be downloaded from:

http://members.optushome.com.au/ronst/

When you read the readme.html, remember to subscribe at the end to
the net mind service if you have not done so already.  This is a bot
that will automatically email you whenever this readme.html changes.

This all_rsync.pl perl script is set by default to download for you
all the changes in the Mandrake binaries for contrib, cooker, 7.2,
unsupported, and iso.   By default it is set to use MandrakeSoft's
primary mirror in Norway.
