  I wrote this because chances are Aurora be installed by default in

 But you can deselect it during a upgrade/install

 Now that touched a raw nerve!!  I usually install cooker in expert mode and 
 choose flat list view to deselect Aurora (so I can see it).  But then when 
 the installer freaks after some packages are installed and it sends me back 
 to package selection - Aurora is selected again - that's bloody devious.

 Aurora is fast becoming a bad word.  What the Aurora is going on?

Unfortunately Egil has gone back to his studies and does not weems to take
care anymore af Aurora, at least for the moment, so I am the unlucky guys who
take it as maintainer.

However, I'll try to fix most of the annoying stuff, so if you could enumerate
all the Bad Things Aurora is doing, feel free, I'll see what I can do.

Re: [Cooker] sawfish-1.0-3mdk

I have the same (i think) problem since using sawfish 0.99 (th right
button menu over the titlebardoes not pop up anymore, so I am not able
to fiy Windows sizes etc.), but this does not happen when I am logged in
as root. Also I can't use the sawfish-parts in the control-center
anymore (this also only happens as a normal user).

tried to delete my .gtkrc, all .gnome* and.sawfish directory, allready
created a dummy user nothing worked, looks like a problem with wrong
permissions, but I couldn't figure out what the problem exactlyis

  Quite some time now I can't access sawfish's menu (middle mouse button on

 Well, works here.  I'm also using 1.0-3mdk.  But, are you sure that
 middle click on root window is bound to anything?  Have a look at the

Re: [Cooker] manually link config and System.map in 2.4.8-18

I think I might have a handle on it... I line item
checked my lilo and the wrong initrd was associated
with vmlinuz. I don't know when that happened though,
maybe the first busted kernel upgrade where I lost the
groups and everything else.
We shall see with the next update

  Possibly could be the fact there is a initrd and

 to
  an older kernel. Should I delete initrd? 
 
  yes, please.
 I did, still have same problem with 18. This problem
 has only surfaced in the last few updates. It was
 working fine for awhile. I do have other initrd's
 from
 backup kernels (in case something goes wrong) but
 those are like initrd-2.4.3-27mdk. Some are linked

 copies I keep in backup directories, but it should
 not
 really affect the script... it had not in the past.

[Cooker] glibc-2.2.4-2mdk--memcpy reads from destination.

2001-09-04 Thread Daniel Kobras

Moi!

I'm one of the upstream developers of the audio editor glame. We've
received bug reports from a Mandrake user indicating segfaults in
code that looks completely sane and works fine on other distributions.
Now, we believe we've tracked it down to the libc Mandrake uses,
specifically the version of memcpy:

Dump of assembler code for function memcpy:
0x888e0 memcpy:   push   %edi
0x888e1 memcpy+1: push   %esi
0x888e2 memcpy+2: mov0xc(%esp,1),%edi
0x888e6 memcpy+6: mov0x10(%esp,1),%esi
0x888ea memcpy+10:mov0x14(%esp,1),%ecx

src is in esi, dest in edi. ecx contains the length.

0x888ee memcpy+14:mov%edi,%eax
0x888f0 memcpy+16:cld
0x888f1 memcpy+17:cmp$0x20,%ecx
0x888f4 memcpy+20:jbe0x8894c memcpy+108
0x888f6 memcpy+22:neg%eax
0x888f8 memcpy+24:and$0x3,%eax
0x888fb memcpy+27:sub%eax,%ecx
0x888fd memcpy+29:xchg   %eax,%ecx
0x888fe memcpy+30:repz movsb %ds:(%esi),%es:(%edi)
0x88900 memcpy+32:mov%eax,%ecx
0x88902 memcpy+34:sub$0x20,%ecx
0x88905 memcpy+37:js 0x88945 memcpy+101
0x88907 memcpy+39:mov(%edi),%eax
0x88909 memcpy+41:mov0x1c(%edi),%edx

memcpy+39 is where our user hits the segfaults. Indeed these two mov
instructions look bogus. They read from the destination address, which
will obviously bomb out if you memcpy to a region that's mmap()ed
PROT_WRITE-only (as glame does quite often).

0x8890c memcpy+44:sub$0x20,%ecx
0x8890f memcpy+47:mov(%esi),%eax
0x88911 memcpy+49:mov0x4(%esi),%edx

Here the results of the reads above are discarded. If there are side-effects
that might qualify as valid optimisations, I fail to see them. To me, it
looks much more like a bug in Mandrake's libc.

0x88914 memcpy+52:mov%eax,(%edi)
0x88916 memcpy+54:mov%edx,0x4(%edi)
0x88919 memcpy+57:mov0x8(%esi),%eax
0x8891c memcpy+60:mov0xc(%esi),%edx
0x8891f memcpy+63:mov%eax,0x8(%edi)
0x88922 memcpy+66:mov%edx,0xc(%edi)
0x88925 memcpy+69:mov0x10(%esi),%eax
0x88928 memcpy+72:mov0x14(%esi),%edx
0x8892b memcpy+75:mov%eax,0x10(%edi)

[Cooker] how I got xfce to work again....

2001-09-04 Thread SI Reasoning

The newer gtk updates had broken xfce and those who
used xfce found that gtk apps no longer ran. Here is a
quick and easy hack to get it running again.

I renamed ~/.gtkrc to ~/.gtkrc-xfce

I edited the following files in /usr/X11R6/bin and
replaced .gtkrc with .gtkrc-xfce:
xfce_setup
xfce_remove
xfce_update

I am not sure what will happen if you did not change
your working ~/.gtkrc to ~/.gtkrc-xfce but this should
at least be a start to getting this running properly again.

 Wow, the most outstanding thing is that this piece of code haven't changed

 by drepper

Of course usually nobody will notice that, as gcc will use
__builtin_memcpy, if compiled with -O or up. The question is, is it
legal for memcpy to read from the destination? In fact, if copying is
unaligned, architectures like Alpha may need to do a read-modify-write
cycle on the destination? (where of course protection flag problems
cannot arise, as these are page aligned).

Good.

 all the Bad Things Aurora is doing, feel free, I'll see what I can do.
 

1. no support for IntelliMouse (of type imps/2) at least in WsLib
versions. Setting mouse type to ps/2 activates it in Aurora but then gpm
goes mad.

2. No support for l10n. Currently most mesages of initscripts are
translated but Aurora is using iso8859-1 font that makes it hard to read
Russian messages. Aurora is supposed to use English messages in this
case but this does not work (I do not know if it is initscripts or
aurora bug). Of course, making it to fallback to English does really
make aurora more useful. Those users who understand English (I mean,
non-native English of course) probably switch aurora off anyway; and
those who would like aurora may have problems with English (experts vs.
newbie).

3. old update bug - link for aurora monitor is removed when updating

4. of course, issue with interactive programs on startup (notably

dosemu-1.0.1/src/tools/periph/hdinfo.c:

make[2]: Cambiando a directorio

It might be a bug in gcc: While compiling it overwrites hdinfo.c (its size is 
zero after this error message).

[root@potatil SPECS]# rpm -qa | grep gcc

I'm using Mandrake 8.0, and I get the same error when compiling the original

¿any clues?

It is not ugly : it is called internationalization. grin

What is criticizable is the Welcome to Linux-Mandrake in lilo screen, 
which is untranslated. Sorry for english people out there, but why 
should it be spelled in english??

 Or isn't that a part of Aurora ?

No. I think it's related to the framebuffer video.

 Okay. *excited* Are you saying that there is an opensource 3d driver for
 the NVIDIA videocards? I've just installed a NVIDIA TNT2 Vanta card, and

Yes there is, with XFree-3.3, but it has really nothing to do with a
production level one. It just sucks ass, but this time because of
performance et al.

 while I like the 3D acceleration, I'm sick of it occasionally taking out
 my xserver. I improved things a while back by upgrading from KDE2.1 to
 KDE2.2, and again by upgrading the glibc's. (I'm running a hybrid
 LM8.0/Cooker system - with buggy packages in 8.0 replaced by more up-to
 date packages from Cooker.) The biggest gripe I have with the NVIDIA
 drivers is that they don't seem to build against the post 8.0 kernels.
 *sighs* Maybe it's time I upgraded from X4.0.3 to X4.1?

I'm using a 3dfx-3 card, I occasionally play Quake3 and I never have any
X-server abort.

[Cooker] (?) dependencies displayer

2001-09-04 Thread Grégoire Colbert

Hello.

I've searched the web but found nothing : is there somewhere a tool to 
draw a flow chart of RPM dependencies on an installed system? Something 
that would display dependencies with RPM as nodes and dependencies as 
arrows, like:

---
   Package xy-gui
---
|
   \|/
|
---
   Package xy-core
---
|
   \|/
|
---
   Package wz-lib
---
   |
   ...

Well you get the idea, it would really help to see useless, missing or 
redundant dependencies. Ideally, it would create a PostScript file which 
would remind of Freeciv's Technology Tree Chart Maker (see 
http://www.freeciv.org/download.phtml) so it could be printed easily and 
would be quite nice to look at.

Has anyone such a tool?

Okay, so not worth it then.

  while I like the 3D acceleration, I'm sick of it occasionally taking out
  my xserver. I improved things a while back by upgrading from KDE2.1 to
  KDE2.2, and again by upgrading the glibc's. (I'm running a hybrid
  LM8.0/Cooker system - with buggy packages in 8.0 replaced by more up-to
  date packages from Cooker.) The biggest gripe I have with the NVIDIA
  drivers is that they don't seem to build against the post 8.0 kernels.
  *sighs* Maybe it's time I upgraded from X4.0.3 to X4.1?
 
 I'm using a 3dfx-3 card, I occasionally play Quake3 and I never have any
 X-server abort.

Mine's more of a x-server hang, where I can't get either keyboard or
mouse to respond. It usually happens at 100% cpu utilisation. (I.e. in
the middle of a game.) Then I have to *shudder* cold-boot. *sighs*

Re: [Cooker] (?) dependencies displayer

2001-09-04 Thread Guillaume Rousse

Ainsi parlait Grégoire Colbert :
 Hello.

 I've searched the web but found nothing : is there somewhere a tool to
 draw a flow chart of RPM dependencies on an installed system? Something
 that would display dependencies with RPM as nodes and dependencies as
 arrows, like:
[..]
 Well you get the idea, it would really help to see useless, missing or
 redundant dependencies. Ideally, it would create a PostScript file which
 would remind of Freeciv's Technology Tree Chart Maker (see
 http://www.freeciv.org/download.phtml) so it could be printed easily and
 would be quite nice to look at.

 Has anyone such a tool?
Altough not graphical, i imagine upmi already has the logic to explore 
dependancies graph. Maybe it could be possible to use its output for this...

[Cooker] supermount

2001-09-04 Thread David Durham

Hi... I installed the newest kernel to day, 2.4.8-18, because I wanted
to try supermount.

Well, it installed fine and I did a `supermount -i enable` (as root) and
rebooted.

I stuck a data cd in and typed `ls /mnt/cdrom` (as root) and didn't see
anything...  Then I did a `modprobe supermount` because it wasn't listed
in `lsmod` (what, again, do I need to do to make it always load
supermount?).  Still nothing.

Is the format for /etc/fstab still to same?

My line for /mnt/cdrom:

/mnt/cdrom  /mnt/cdrom  supermount
fs=iso9660,dev=/dev/cdrom,ro,nosuid,noauto,nodev,exec 0 0

I can manually mount the cdrom, `mount /mnt/cdrom` and it works fine

Any ideas?  I'm just hoping I didn't miss a thread about it...

Thanks,
Davy

 no. It is the list of packages that do not exist on installation media.
 I have no idea where they come from and why installer thinks they may

 WMRack does not exist. Package is named wmrack. Kdelibs-sound-devel does
 not exist for a long time. Etc etc.

these come from rpmsrate which is not quite uptodate.

The problem was that the system NEEDED to mount it ro and should have

[Cooker] rpmdrake problems

2001-09-04 Thread Frederik Himpe

Hi,

with rpmdrake-1.3-85mdk I have this problems:
- I got this source defined:
ftp://ftp.surfnet.nl/pub/os/Linux/distr/Mandrake/Mandrake-devel/cooker/i586/Mandrake/RPMS
When I try to install some packages via the updates only flat list, it
says on the console: Couldn't resolve proxy. I had a proxyserver
configured for HTTP (not for FTP), but the problem also happens also
when I uncheck the HTTP-proxy.
- When the installation of the packages failed, the packages I selected
for installation, are still selected. But the selected list on the
right hand upper part in rpmdrake is empty. Beneath the list, it says
correctly 1 packages, 664113 bytes.

[Cooker] 2.4.8-18 - Install report

Mandrake Linux Cooker-i586 20010904 17:32

When attempting to do an install with Zip drive I got to diskdrake, which 
reminded me that any steps further was on my own risk. Fine shit.

Install without Zip drive, was beatiful.
Added gpm in service, got it up from boot.

From report.bug:

Verify the floppy matches actual install medium. (aka your floppy is
up2date)

 
 Hmm I thought that the floppies matches the install medium?
 
 I picked the network.img from the ftp.uninett.no site and set the instalation 
 to pick the files from there via ftp, shouldn't these files match the floppy 
 from the very same file hierarchy?
 

FTP install from cooker mirrors is not a wise thing. Mirrors are 
constantly updated, so you may get some files from old version and some 
files from new one. You almost certainly get hdlist/actual RPMs mismatch.

[Cooker] DiskDrake?

2001-09-04 Thread Jason Dyer



Has anyone been working on DiskDrake? I've 
tried to install beta 2 on two different machines and couldn't get either one 
past the partitioning phase. 

My desktop has a H/W raid (two IDE drives), so I 
expected some weirdness, but I was able to get MDK8.0 running from a third IDE 
drive. Under 8.1, DiskDrake shows 3 drives w/ nothing on any of them (one 
should be the standalone drive w/ MDK8.0 and a Fat32 partition.)

On mynotebook, I get the message "DiskDrake 
failed to read correctly the partition table. Continue at your own risk!" 
(and then it won't let me continue.) Under Alt-F3, it seems to be 
complaining that I have more than one extended partition 
(/usr/bin/perl-install/partition_table.pm line 457.) This setup worked 
fine under MDK8.0 (or perhaps the 8.0 install created the second primary 
partition...)

Also, is there an archive of this mailing list that 
I can look at before I go asking questions that have already been 
answered?

[Cooker] Install program suggestion

2001-09-04 Thread Ricardo Niederberger Cabral

When the Mandrake install program prompts for the next CD to be 
inserted, the dialog defaults to the CANCEL button instead of defaulting 
to the OK button. It's this way since 8.0 I guess. (I noticed how bad 
that can be when I pressed the enter key without looking and suddenly 
the CD2 was skipped...)

Re: [Cooker] Pan newsreader segfaults

2001-09-04 Thread Stephen Magill

I found the problem.  The get_host_name() function in util.c only
returns the first portion of the hostname.  That is, mine is
Mjmh3.net.utulsa.edu, and it just returns Mjmh3.  Adding
net.utulsa.edu to my list of domains to search allows the app to
start.  Alternatively, editing the source to replace:

ptr = strtok (hostname, .);

with

ptr = hostname;

fixes things.  Is the current behavior appropriate?  Should I take this
to the Pan mailing list?  (also, I'd still like to know how to set up a
debug build if anyone knows)

On Tuesday 04 September 2001 11:44 am, David Durham escribió:
 I've seen that problem when using a CDRW (and I think the session
 wasn't closed)

 The problem was that the system NEEDED to mount it ro and should have
 detected that... Perhaps specifying 'ro' on the fstab line would work
 for ya...

Thanks, I should'a thought of that myself. Yes, adding 'ro' did 
make supermount functional, but only in a console. Accessing from 
Konqueror still locks me up jelly tight.  Strangely enough, I only 
added 'ro' to my cdrom, my (Plextor) burner works with supermount 
(console only) without 'ro'. Also, I checked, and mtab does match fstab.

/mnt/cdrom /mnt/cdrom supermount fs=iso9660,ro,dev=/dev/cdrom 0 0
/mnt/cdrom2 /mnt/cdrom2 supermount fs=iso9660,dev=/dev/cdrom2 0 0

  It might be a KDE issue, particularly in my case as I'm using 
Texstar's objprelink'd i686 KDE 2.2 rpm's.  I'd rather do without 
supermount than those ;) They make KDE2.2 wicked quick ;

   Hi... I installed the newest kernel to day, 2.4.8-18, because I
   wanted to try supermount.
   Well, it installed fine and I did a `supermount -i enable` (as root)
   and rebooted.
   I stuck a data cd in and typed `ls /mnt/cdrom` (as root) and didn't
   see anything...  Then I did a `modprobe supermount` because it wasn't
   listed in `lsmod` (what, again, do I need to do to make it always
   load supermount?).  Still nothing.
   Is the format for /etc/fstab still to same?
   My line for /mnt/cdrom:
   /mnt/cdrom  /mnt/cdrom  supermount
   fs=iso9660,dev=/dev/cdrom,ro,nosuid,noauto,nodev,exec 0 0
   I can manually mount the cdrom, `mount /mnt/cdrom` and it works fine
   Any ideas?  I'm just hoping I didn't miss a thread about it...
 
 I did just the same as you, but with the addition of trimming my
  fstab line from fs=iso9660,dev=/dev/cdrom,ro,nosuid,noauto,nodev,exec 0
  0, to just   fs=iso9660,dev=/dev/cdrom 0 0   That appeared to get
  supermount working, but when I tried to access a CD in Konqueror, the
  system locked up jelly tight. Had to reboot to get it back. Same thing
  happened trying again in a terminal.
 
 Evidently Texstar's had a little better luck

I got the message supermount not supported by kernel during install,
and the module was removed and fstab rewritten at that stage. Before 8.1
beta, it was so bad that I edited supermount out of my fstab.

Oh thanks Anna - it's not something I've done then :o)  I have it on 8.0 
installed without KDE, then I installed KDE2.2 from tarballs into /opt/kde.

 - Update from KDE_2_2_BRANCH

I had noticed before a very annoying point when I was trying to set up 
kdevelop : it was unable to find the KDE documentation, and I didn't know 
where it was.
How can I do it ?
Furthermore concerning this :

[will@bastard will]$ echo $KDEDIR

[will@bastard will]$

Maybe we could set this environment variable ?
