Re: [Cooker] Proper rsync syntax for Cooker downloads

2001-08-27 Thread Jose_Jorge


 No, it will download it all again, because wget is a defective
 downloader in that it does not preserve file dates - rsync therefore
 determines the server file to be a new version.

Never speak so quick : wget is somewhat old, so there is much chances you
are the defect!

For me, wget -m keeps the file dates, even under w2k...

It's all in the subject. I got the message:
No such pseudo-hash field LVMname at /usr/bin/install/partition_table.pm at

Will it be fixed before beta2?

Sorry for long delay, most should be fixed.

If using a ramdisk, everything should be fine including changing the mount point
for the partition used to install (was locked to /mnt/hd).

But if not using a ramdisk (this is your case as having only 32MB of ram), the
installation partition cannot be unmounted and should be /mnt/hd, furthermore,
urpmi is not installed currently.

Re: [Cooker] Kernel 2.4.8-12mdk Questions...

2001-08-27 Thread Fabrice FACORAT

Le Lundi 27 Août 2001 02:58, vous avez écrit :

Very amazing.
Does your /etc/modules.conf correctly configured ?
For me there's 2 methods :
+ install with rpm but keep the old kernel :
]# rpm -ivh --force kernel-headers-2.4.8-12mdk.i586.rpm
]# rpm -ivh kernel-source-2.4.8-12mdk.i586.rpm
]# rpm -ivh kernel-2.4.8-12mdk.i586.rpm
]# /usr/share/loader/make-initrd 2.4.8-12mdk

after I modify /etc/lilo.conf or /boot/grub/menu.lst :
+ /etc/lilo.conf : 
I had this :
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.8-12mdk
label=linux-248-12mdk
root=/dev/sdb6
initrd=/boot/initrd.img-2.4.8-12mdk
append= hdc=ide-scsi devfs=mount
read-only
For the previuos kernel, I replace the symlinks (vmlinuz , initrd.img ) by 
their realnames ( vmlinuz-2.4.x-ymdk, initrd.img-2.4.x-ymdk ). It's because 
of the fact that the symlinks point now to the new kernel.
If you upgrade from a Mandrake 8.0, x = 3 and y = 20
+ /boot/grub/menu.lst :
I had this :
title linux-248-12mdk
kernel (hd2,0)/vmlinuz-2.4.8-12mdk root=/dev/sdb6 hdc=ide-scsi 
devfs=mount
initrd (hd2,0)/initrd-2.4.8-12mdk.img
Same manipulation for the names.
If you want to erase a version of the kernel , for exemple the kernel 
2.4.u-vmdk :
rpm -e --nodeps kernel-source-2.4.u-vmdk
rpm -e --nodeps kernel-headers-2.4.u-vmdk
rpm -e --nodeps kernel-2.4.u-vmdk

devfs=mount : to activate devfs, optionnal if you don't want to test it
hdc=ide-scsi : to emulate my IDE CD writer in a SCSI CD writer

+install with rpm but overwrite the old kernel :
]# rpm -Uvh --force kernel-headers-2.4.8-12mdk.i586.rpm
]# rpm -Uvh kernel-source-2.4.8-12mdk.i586.rpm
]# rpm -Uvh kernel-2.4.8-12mdk.i586.rpm
or
]# urpmi kernel-source
]# urpmi kernel

after just to be sure :
]# /usr/share/loader/make-initrd 2.4.8-12mdk

Normaly the boot loader has been updated and the symlinks point to the new 
kernel, but If you want you can make the same manipulation concerning the 
fact to replace the symlinks names by the right names, etc ...
this options is less secure as if you have a pb with this kernel 
You'd better have in this case a vanilla kernel compiled by you.
 Hi Guys,

 I tried the new kernel today, however I must have done something wrong. I
 installed the new kernel, the system booted fine, however it did not load
 the modules for the hardware. When you download the RPM is it not supposed
 to read your current kernel config so you don't have to load any modules
 manually? If not, is there a guide which states what you're supposed to do
 when updating the Mandrake kernel via the RPM system?

 Thanks,
 Nelson Bartley

[Cooker] Install Images

2001-08-27 Thread Digital Wokan

Okay, the guy with the camera is now on subject choice probation. 
It'd be really cool to see pics of the developers during the install,
though probably not during breakfast anymore.  Having the developers
with their names overlayed show up during the install might help
end-users identify more with the people who bring them such a fine
distro.  (I recommend at least business casual for those pics, guys.  I
know ties suck.)

Of course, the really bright side of this is that Cooker is once again
installable after yesterday's little depslist.ordered bouts.  (Probably
the mirror being slow, but I'd still like to know how to fix that at my
end.)

I've just read an announcement about a new version of the vma merging patch.

Does it need further tests ?
A mozilla speed improvement is something very interesting. And I think that
others apps are concerned.

I do apologise, but I have an other question :
I notice that RH provide several kernel version optimise for i386, i486, 
i586, i686, athlon, etc ...
So my question is : do you think that it may be easily implement by the 
Mandrake team ? 
and last but not least, do you think it may de useful/interesting ?
To much work after to debug the kernel ? (pb that appear only for a precise 
optimisation of the kernel )
and really the last one, if it's done, do you think it is possible to 
automaticaly install the right kernel version during the install (athlon for 
athlon, 686 por PIII/PIV, etc ...) ? ( maybe Pixel will have to modify DrakX

But maybe this would be a nice option for the commercial CD,

It was styles problem. I like marble style and always used it. At some

well). I removed kstylerc and everything is well again.

Is it known problem?

 It started to happen two - three weeks ago. Kicker does not start with
 KDE. If I wait a minute and manually start it - everyhing is O.K.
 
 I hoped, new clean install would fix. It is even worse. Now kicker
 *NEVER* starts (only the very first time I start KDE, or if I rmove
.kde
 directory).

Re: [Cooker] Proper rsync syntax for Cooker downloads

2001-08-27 Thread guran

Hi

rsync has the following option that was originally asked for:

 --size-only
  Normally rsync will skip any files that are already
  the same length and have the same time-stamp.  With
  the  --size-only  option  files  will be skipped if
  they have the same size, regardless  of  timestamp.
  This  is  useful  when  starting to use rsync after
  using another mirroring system which may  not  pre­
  serve timestamps exactly.

[Cooker] dump problems

2001-08-27 Thread Eugenio Diaz

I have been having this problem with dump for several months now, and I was
hoping for it to fix itself with newer versions, but so far it hasn't so I am
posting it again.

I have a backup script that uses dump to backup my filesystems. I was using it
fine, until several months ago, when it stopped working. The problem is that
while dumping, several dump threads (childs of a dump thread in unix_select) go
into pause, and then the whole thing hangs.

Here is the output of ps axfwww:

 rsync has the following option that was originally asked for:

You have to install libarts2-devel (hope I remembered it right) before
building this. The libao package is missing this dependency.

[Cooker] Locales-it-2.3.1.2-4mdk breaks several programs (again)

2001-08-27 Thread Paolo Pedroni

I'm sending this again since it did not get through the first time (I
couldn't find it in the mail archive).

Hi, I just installed glibc-2.2.4-2mdk with locales-it-2.3.1.2-4mdk, and
now several programs malfunction. For example several kde programs
(rpmdrake [ver. 1.3-52.1mdk], the kde control center, the kde panel
[both ver. 2.1.1-13mdk], to name a few) have lost (in whole or in part)
their internationalization and now are in english.
On the other hand 'man' (ver. 1.5i2-3mdk), every time it has to display
some error message, shows the following message: Failed to open the
message catalog man on the path NLSPATH=none, but NLSPATH is set to
the (usual?) value of '/usr/share/locale/%l/%N'.
Each time 'perl' (ver 5.600-30mdk), starts, it gives the following
(long) error message:
perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
LANGUAGE = it_IT:it,
LC_ALL = (unset),
LC_MESSAGES = it_IT,
LC_TIME = it_IT,
LC_NUMERIC = it_IT,
LC_CTYPE = it_IT,
LC_MONETARY = it_IT,
LC_COLLATE = it_IT,
LANG = it
are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale (C).
My interpretation of these facts is that (quoted from the glibc 2.2.4
release notes)
 The internal locale format has been changed (again, new in 2.2.4).
 All locale information has to be regenerated with localedef.  Simply
run
 
 make localedata/install-locales
 
 to install all the files.  This might take a while and using the -j
 option on SMP systems.  If you are upgrading a live system with glibc
 2.1 or before you will end up with two sets of the locale data in two
 different places (the old data in /usr/share/locale, the new code in
 /usr/lib/locale).  Keep the old data around until all statically
 linked applications which use locales are recompiled.  Then remove the
 files LC_CTYPE, LC_COLLATE, LC_NUMERIC, LC_MONETARY, LC_TIME, and
 SYS_LC_MESSAGES in all subdirectories below /usr/share/locale.

but it appears that locales-??-2.3.1.2-4mdk already has these new files
in the old location, which breaks applications written with the old
locales in mind.

I even tried to download the most recent setup, initscripts and bash
rpms, but they didn't help.

My questions are:
1) Am I right or am I completely out of directions?
2) Is there any way around this problem (maybe a new build of locales-??
with both old and new locales in different directories) ?

Thanks for the attention and the patience.

old packages.  rsync its easy and clean to use.

I only use wget for downloading complete web sites.
so I guess each one of them has its own advantages and dis-advantages.

Until someone who know what they're doing responds, try two colons (::)

there is a logical reason but I don't remember what it is (has to do
