[Cooker] evolution and gpg
Using evolution-0,10-1 and gnupg1.0.5-1, evolution only runs a signed message through gpg if it's pgp/mime. It doesn't run it through gpg if the message is cleartext signed. So, things like, say, Mandrake security announcements sent to bugtraq, which are sent cleartext, not pgp/mime, evolution doesn't touch them. Has anyone else seen this? (It's probably an evolution thing, not a gpg thing, but I included both version numbers just in case). Eaon

Re: [Cooker] Mandrake PPC
It's targeted for New-World machines, which only have a CD or hard-drive as a boot device. For a minimal boot CD you'll need the yaboot.conf that should be at the base of the directory, and the boot directory. The stage1 installer then gives options for all the various install types. Perhaps I should make a tools directory with an x86 version of mkhybrid for those of you starting the process from Intel. You need this older version, as the current version makes read-only hybrids and the mkINSTALLCD script is unable to bless the boot folder. Be aware, we do not have a non-destructive partition splitter for PPC, like on Intel. You will need to prep your hard drive beforehand, leaving whatever space you want to dedicate for Linux as Apple_Free. I have a doc that goes over this, which I should drop into the download area too.

Re: [Cooker] evolution and gpg
So sprach Eaon am Sun, May 20, 2001 at 01:13:18AM -0600:
Using evolution-0,10-1 and gnupg1.0.5-1, evolution only runs a signed
message through gpg if it's pgp/mime. It doesn't run it through gpg if
the message is cleartext signed. So, things like, say, Mandrake
security announcements sent to bugtraq, which are sent cleartext, not
pgp/mime, evolution doesn't touch them. Has anyone else seen this?
(It's probably an evolution thing, not a gpg thing, but I included both
version numbers just in case).
Uhm, dunno how your setup is, but if you're running your own mta at home and
have evolution check your spoolfile ínstead of your providers POP3/IMAP box,
you might want to check out this procmail recipe. It checks if this is a
PGP'd message and changes the header entries to pgp/mime if it's a cleartext
(text/plain) message.

Re: [Cooker] winmodem? 8.0?
USR makes a very nice PCI voice/fax modem that works with Linux; you need to do some fiddling with the serial ports to make it work (see the Modem-HOWTO) but otherwise it works fine. The key is to get the hardware modem which retails for about $120 and not the software modem that retails for about half that amount. As for the Lucent WinModem, I use this on an Acer 330T with Linux 2.4 and while it has some serious lock problems (when it crashes, you must remove the battery to reboot) these only occur if _you_ terminate pppd instead of allowing the closed connection to terminate pppd. (that's my theory anyway). The current version linked to the linmodems page is better, but still has this problem; as a precaution, unless the modem disconnects because the ISP hung-up or did not connect, I always do a hard reboot between calls. -- Gary Lawrence Murphy [EMAIL PROTECTED]: office voice/fax: 01 519 4222723 T(C)Inc Business Innovations through Open Source http://www.teledyn.com KernelWiki Community Linux Docs: http://kernelbook.sourceforge.net/wiki

Actually I'm connecting to my isp's pop and smtp servers using evolution

I'm actually commenting on it because in evolution-0.9 it worked for

Software modems are just raw DSP chips; the software must do all of the signal processing to understand dialtones, produce dialing tones and modulate/demodulate the carrier frequency. This is a non-trivial program. The only modem support for Linux (outside of the linmodems) is for those modems based (sometimes loosely) on the old Hayes AT command set. -- Gary Lawrence Murphy [EMAIL PROTECTED]: office voice/fax: 01 519 4222723 T(C)Inc Business Innovations through Open Source http://www.teledyn.com KernelWiki Community Linux Docs: http://kernelbook.sourceforge.net/wiki
Re: [Cooker] winmodem? 8.0?
I have an Intel modem in a shoe-box(came with the pc) and the drivers for that one are for 2.2.17ish. Not 2.4. and what i understand it doesn't work with it As bad as that may sound. Listen to this I have a bunch of 3-com 3c450 pci 10/100 ethernet cards, very nice cards too. In the Mandrake box, work flawlessly. I throw one in this machine.. Win2k Pro, no drivers. Ok, I load up the cd, no win2k drivers. same on the website. Back to my 3c509 hehe ALT.2600.WAREZ AWARD : ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO US!!!
Re: [Cooker] winmodem? 8.0?
I have that USR PCI voice/fax/modem iin my system. It works great. With the 2.2.x Kernel series, I had to run setserial on it to associate the hardware parameters to the device special file, but with 2.4.x, it just works auto-magickally. The only thing that threw me was the fact that it gets called /dev/ttyS4, but now Mandrake finds it, and I don't even have to worry about that. As for using an external modem, what about folks (like me) who have other stuff to do with their serial ports (exempli gratis: Palm cradle and UPS?) -Charles Thus spake Hoyt, on Sunday 20 May 2001 15:05.

The key is to get the hardware modem which retails for about $120 and not the software modem that retails for about half that amount. If you are going to spend that amount of money on a modem, purchase an external serial-port modem. They _all_ work with Linux. As a bonus, you free up a slot in your PC.

I think what he was talking about was... instead of going public with an ipo, have mandrake be a user/developer owned company with the ability to buy into the company that you are also putting effort into. --- Alexander Skwar [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: So sprach John J.

[Cooker] mkcds scripts broken?
Greetings!, I've used this to make the iso images before, so I don't know what the scoop is, but it isn't working now. I'm certain that all of the files mentioned in the error message are in my rsync target path, so I wonder, is this a problem with my mirror, or is there something genuinely broken? I can install from the Tree using the hd.img, but I like to make a backup copy of the Tree from time to time, in case something bad happens... 8^) Here's the output: # ./mkcds /rpm/COOKER-MIRROR /store /rpm/COOKER-MIRROR/Mandrake/mdkinst/usr/bin/perl: error while loading shared libraries: /rpm/COOKER-MIRROR/Mandrake/mdkinst/lib/libc.so.6: symbol _dl_debug_files, version GLIBC_2.2 not defined in file ld-linux.so.2 with link time reference

Can you substantiate this claim? Of course there is support. Not for every soft modem, but for some like PCTel and Lucent. You should look at www. linmo . oops. I see below that you say . . . If there was support in any prior version of Linux, we wouldn't have linmodems.org desperately trying to reverse-engineer the beasts. The Modem-HOWTO also concurs that software modems are not supported under Linux except for those drivers listed at linmodems.org. So the driver support mentioned at linmodems.org is not . . . _any_ support for soft modems in Linux.? That's odd. I don't understand your claim to have never found _any_ support if you know about linmodems.org. Given that there _is_ support, I would not take that as a ringing endorsement to rush out and buy a supported soft modem. These drivers are only useful if you have a modem you can't easily and cheaply replace (like a built-in modem in a laptop). Some people just don't have the money to buy a better modem and must use what they have; it's great that the Linux community is working toward support for this hardware (and WinPrinters, too) to support these people. You're not still using kernel version 0.99 are you? 8) Hoyt

[Cooker] Install problems in 8.0 (LBA prob?)
I tried installing 8.0 on a friend's 800Mhz Thunderbird box and ran into some problems with diskdrake. The first install attempt seemed to go well, I set up the partitions within driskdrake, but I got the dreaded LI on reboot. Several attempts to reinstall lilo gave the same results. I tried changing bootloaders to GRUB and got GRUB on the screen and no more. Looking at the partion tables with another utility (Rannish Partition Manager) showed a fairly scrambled partition table, though I was able to boot from floppy if the floppy had a kernel on it. Pre-generating the partition table with Rannish, diskdrake gave errors about being unable to read the partition table. I aborted the install at that point. It is interesting to note that the Luser was insistent on placing the Linux partitions in the last 4G of a 46G device, and so the boot loaders would have needed to operate in LBA mode. The diskdrake error is of more concern, however, as the text installer actually presented a proposed partition table and wanted to format the whole drive. -- Anton GrahamGPG ID: 0x18F78541 [EMAIL PROTECTED] RSA key available upon request I got everybody to pay up front...then I blew up their planet.
