You need some configuration framework for this.

Re: [Cooker] pcmcia ide cd-rw drives and ide-scsi
Andrej, Thank you for clarifying the issue for me. I've never understood why this never worked. The machine I'm using doesn't have a real SCSI controller - just a pcmcia CD-RW and built-in DVD, both of which use ide-scsi, and a zip drive, which does that printer-port scsi thing. I HAVE done the modprobe -r ide-scsi / modprobe ide-scsi thing without any problem, with one drive using the internal ide controller and one using the pcmcia one, and it worked fine. I realize the right (tm) way to fix this is to fix the drivers, but how hard would it be to reload the ide-scsi driver as part of the card recognition ? It's extremely unlikely that a laptop is going to be using a scsi controller, or that a desktop machine or server is going to be using a pcmcia controller to run ide-scsi devices. Doesn't the ide-scsi driver look for what slots are open when it loads? Can the loading / unloading be put in the pcmcia ide startup script? I think I tried to do something along those lines once, but didn't get very far - even though doing this manually worked. (Means I don't program shell scripts worth shit, probably ) I'd be happy to test any code - have two different laptops and can try on both. (or if you really get bored and feel like doing all the re-writing - I can loan you the drive and controller) Regards, Vinny

Says v4l devices are 600 - but root isn't the only one who uses them. If I try using w3cam, for example, I get a message can't open /dev/video0 because of permissions. Look at /dev/video0, it's a symlink, but ls -l says that it has permissions of 666. If I follow the symlink to the device itself, it's permission is 600. If I change it to 666 or 777 then things work OK. On a system with low security settings, shouldn't these devices be available without having to change things? V.

I briefly looked into it at the problem is, ide-cs must interface with two subsystems - IDE and SCSI. While I know how to do it for IDE subsystem (I even suspect it is already handled correctly) I am at lost how to initiate rescan for SCSI subsystem. Note that you actually need possibly to rescan for both HA and devices on this HA. And it is not a hot plug case (that is more or less clear) because you do not know target ID/LUN in advance. Actually, ide-scsi driver is missing hot plug routines as well, but they do not seem to be used in current code anyway. I.e. it is not trivial task; it requires some kernel code rewrite and device to test code on. I would do it if I had any PCMCIA card and drive. Sorry :( -andrej

Any chance of doing something with the pcmcia code so that when a pcmcia ide controller is detected that it reloads the ide-scsi module?

[Cooker] Todays updates and Enlightenment
Following todays updates and a reboot I was very pleased to find that Enlightenment now is problem free and displays properly. This does leave me puzzled. I was under the impression that the display problem in Enlightenment were due to the fact that it had been built using libpng2. How is it then, since Enlightenment itself has still not been rebuilt, that the problem has been over come? Charles

I think it depends of the security level you choose during insatall/
in msec.
If you use a Networking level (which Alexander probably chose,
otherwise using Apache would not make so much sense IMHO)
the homedirs are chmoded 700 by default. Only when you use non
networked security levels, the got opened ...
It's silly but it was so for at least 7.2 and 8.0.

[Cooker] Upgrade of »setup« broke existing /etc/passwd and /etc/group!!!!! #2 - Group xfs missing!
As I said, setup broke /etc/group. It also removed the "xfs" group. Now I updated XFree86-xfs-4.1.0-22mdk.i586.rpm from XFree86-xfs-4.1.0-21mdk and got this error: XFree86-xfs Warnung: group xfs does not exist - using root ## Either the group xfs should be created by XFree86-xfs, or, if even such seldomly used qmail groups clutter the group file, it has to be provided by the setup package.

Thanks. BTW, this is on a mostly stock LM8.1, so it's a general timebomb and will likely need an update asap.
