[Cooker] Networking in 8.1
I haven't setup a local network in Linux since 7.2, but I sure don't remember it being this hard. I can ping each computer from the other,.. cannot connect to it, mount it, get samba ot nfs to do it for me either. I can even get ifconfig and route to see it. Is there something similar to the iptables problem that Guillaume Cottenceau mentioned for the internet sharing? This really needs to be setup easier. I set it up in Windows no problem, plus there is plenty of good info on the net for it. Seems like there are quite a few ways in Linux, but can't get it to work. I remember using swat to setup samba last time and mounted the other computer. Come to think of it, the other computer had Windows on it at that time and has Linux now. Not sure if that matters, it should be able to mount it. Any one else having any troubles with a local network? Not sure what I am doing wrong. Dave

[Cooker] 8.1 final bug: howto submit?
There are no provisions for submitting a bug against 8.1 final, only all the betas and the RC1 on https://qa.mandrakesoft.com/ Bug is: The URL associated with the Mandrake tutorial menu option when you put CD1 into a Windows PC, has an extra "tutorial/" in the URL URL is:file///D|/tutorial/tutorial/index.html URL should be: file///D|/tutorial/index.html
Re: [Cooker] wine,win4lin,plex
This should be pretty easy to do, I would think. I had trouble with the cooker wine package today, so I grabbed Codeweaver's preview 4 rpm. Their setup program looks pretty strait foward - there aren't a whole lot of "secrets" there. Since most of the setup stuff for wine has to do with paths and drives, shouldn't be too hard. As wine becomes a usable package, might be something for the 8.2 distro? Ran a bunch of stuff with wine tonight - was pleasantly suprised at how many things ran under it. Still quirky in spots, but definitely usable. Vinny Blue Lizard wrote: > > Here's an idea... > What about wine (something tells me win4lin is on the commercial cds) > setup step in drakx?

I have started installation using hd.img burned to a floppy and at about one third of the package copying to hard disk, the installer could not continue, failing to install all following packages. Looking at the console log (one of the virtual terminals), I found that the second cd was not found. At the beginning I told the installer where to find the first iso cd image. As the installer does not ask for the others, I thought they would be found automatically at the same place the first one was found. Apparently the installer could not find the second and third iso cd images. Any clues on how to proceed in this case? I do not understand the "or if you ..." phrase. Dos rc1 mean release candidate number one? Do you mean booting from the second cd in order to do an iso image install? If yes, it is not feasible to me, as I do not have the discs, only the images stored in a hard disk. > Please note that this thread belongs on the 'newbie' or 'expert' list, > 'cooker' is for development related discussion only (not that there > isn't a fair amount of OT ;P). Yes, I should know about this. But being for years on the cooker list alone, seeing the evolution of Mandrake Linux, but not yet using it (I was waiting the correct moment to jump from RHL), it does not come to me subscribing to the other Mandrake lists. I will do it now, and follow them. Thanks. Romildo -- Prof. José Romildo Malaquias <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Departamento de Computação - Universidade Federal de Ouro Preto Brasil
