well how about just create symlinks to the new names.. that way things can go on as they are for now, and slowly as the packages are enhanced in future, they can be recreated with the new names, and the symlinks can be swaped to the old names.. or just do that, go with the newer naming scheme, and make symlinks for the old names.. just to smooth over the transition.. and the docs need not be changed instantly. but it is a pain, remembering the number of different names for different tools is a huge hassle. and the dumb use of caps and smalls doesn't help either why use MandrakeUpdate when the norm is to assume mandrakeupdate (I don't expect mixed case on system tools and I doubt many others do either.

Well in the past NFS on loopback was not supported by the kernel,

Even if it weren't NFS on loopback -- say someone's got their cdroms
mounted and shared out -- or if they simply copied the contents of
their cdroms to day /mnt/mandrake/8.2/disc{1,2} and shared that out in
order to do a network install perhaps (although I've just copied
everything in RPMS2/ to RPMS/ before to do this). I can imagine using
this functionality quite a bit actually.

Re: [Cooker] Latest Cooker (Beta2) Install report
Aparently after a fresh install the machine had a problem with hostname. I simply put a hostname and a bogus domainname. When I added the local machines' hostname to /etc/hosts file with IP address - then squid starts with no problem. Squid trys to use gethostname() and fails for some reason - everything is fine now. May be a fluke - but it happend with both my notebook and one of my desktops. I will try again with the latest Cooker and report if it fails.

[Cooker] Ooops with DC390 Scsi Controller on latest 2.4.17.18mdk kernel
Hi! I can no longer boot with the current kernel (self-compiled) as it oopses on startup. I can't post the oops as it is not fully visible on screen and I can't scroll back after the crash. The oops happens after the SCSI host-adapter is recognised (tcmscim, type: DC390). I also found out that without initrd image this oops does not occur. Exchanging the tcmscsim module with AM53C974 removed this problem (this driver works apparently better for my host-adapter.) With tcmscsim the host-adapter is recognised as Tekram DC390/AM53C974 (Actually a DawiControl DC2974 bootable Fast SCSI Controller), with the other driver it is recognised as AM53/79C974 PCscsi. lspcidrake lists it as tmscsim : Advanced Micro Devices [AMD]|53c974 [PCscsi] [STORAGE_SCSI] while lspci lists it as 00:0a.0 SCSI storage controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] 53c974 [PCscsi] (rev 10). Please change the default driver for this host-adapter to AM53C974 or else I get a crash/ooops after the next 8.2 (beta) install :( Regards, Reinhard -- Software-Engineer, Developer for Embedded Devices Project: Pertergrin, a role playing game system GnuPG Public Key available on request msg55679/pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

I played around with it a little more. The distorted background happens Only if you are using kdm. It Does Not happen if you are using gdm. Repeat..it Does not happen if you use gdm. To me this says that the problem Is Not dri with the r128 but with kdm. I have a feeling that even if dri is disabled the kdm login screen as current still will not display properly with the r128.

[Cooker] Installation on Laptops
All, I am new to this newsgroup, so I apologise if you already know about the issues mentioned below. I am sharing my experiences with Mandrake 8.2 Beta 2 in the hope that it may become easier to install on laptops in the future... Sony PCG-Z600NE --- This machine has a PCMCIA CD-ROM drive with 128MB RAM and USB floppy. Booting with ide2=0x180,0x386 succeeds in loading the installation GUI and all goes well until it comes to selecting packages. It can't find the rpmlist -but from the error message this is not immediately obvious. Repeating the attempt in text mode reveals that it can't find the pcmcia drivers. So how does it succeed in loading the GUI installer in the first place? Why are the pcmcia drivers not detected/included? Having to resort to a disk install, I copy the contents of the two disks onto one of the FAT partitions, each disk under a different directory. Thank GOD the USB floppy works! Unfortunately, the disk install wants all files under one directory, so I have to re-boot into windows again, and manually merge the two directories. Why can't the installer ask for the location of the second directory? It manages this OK with CDs. Anyway, this time it manages to install the packages. Unfortunately, the machine hangs during the network configuration stage. Having re-booted, I then go into maintenance mode and have to configure X (NeoMagic NM2380 MagicMedia 256XL) and the networking manually (pain). Also, it appears that none of the GUI tools set NETWORKING=yes in /etc/sysconfig/network so one has much fun trying to work out what's wrong with it all. Setting up a new user -why can I no longer select the user id from userdrake? This is definitely a retrograde step. I need to have my user ids vaguely in step with other systems so that I can occasionally do a NFS mount (without the hassle and boot delays incurred using NIS). Back to the command-line then. Having set up my X preferences (Gnome and Enlightenment), I can't get the sound to work. The mixer works fine (turn the mike gain up and you get acoustic feedback), but no audio output from Gnome/Enlightnment/xmms. The chip is a Yamaha YMF744B [DS-12]. I'm still working on this -any ideas? Clevo 2700C -- This is an unusual beast with the SiS 630 Chipset, 128MB RAM, but with a built-in CD and floppy. This install, at first, seems much easier. It installs straight away -until it comes to setting up X. The Mandrake installer prompts you to use XFree86-3.3.6 with or without an accelerated driver. Glad that it has detected the SiS chip and being brave, I choose the accelerated option and promptly get a solarising screen followed by a sure hang. Oh dear, re-boot. Again in maintenance mode, I manage (eventually) to tweak things so that X starts in some recognisable form but the screen shimmers and will not switch back to text mode, so you're stuck in X. Much hair-loss later, I find an example XFree86-4.x configuration on the SiS web site. I delete the silly resolutions from the file and Bingo! XFree86-4.2 works without the shimmering and returns back to the console. The only problem I have with it is that xosview appears in the wrong colours -anyone have any ideas as to why? All other applications so far seem OK. Again, I can't get the sound working (SiS 7018). Guys, this has to get better. Edward Tandi. _ Do You Yahoo!?

[Cooker] Bad hdlist.cz on Sunsite?
I think there might be a problem with the hdlist on ftp.Sunsite Using rpmdrake to update to XFree86-2.4-6 neither XFree-server or XFree-xfs are listed as available for update nor are even shown if display all is selected. They are also not pulled in as requires so the installation fails because of failed depends. I manually dled the 2 rpms and copied to ../urpmi/rpms and installed -Uvh but there has to be something wrong somewhere. Charles

[Cooker] X Install in beta2
Hi, cookers. I have tried to install beta2 on a laptop. It has a SiS630, that works fine under XFree-4.2, but the installer only lets me to choose X-3.3.6 or X-3.3.6-with-experimental-3D-acceleration. X-4.2 is not offered anywhere. Could you include 4.2 in the possible options ? How does the installer guess that 4.2 are no good for my card ? BTW, the options spreading horizontally went out of the laptop screen. From just a GUI point of view, it would be much better a list like that of keyboard selection, with entries for 4.2, 3.3.6, and 3.3.6-3D (defaulting to 4.2, of course :)). TIA.

Unless there is a REAL need to specify the required version of these packages. I'm wondering what the effect of this is going to be. I'd prefer to put versioning only if it's REALLY required (it really can't be built with another version, etc). Otherwise things are going to get overly complicated and harder to maintain when time passes. On the other hand, if you put a version requirement on the libglade-devel and gdk-pixbuf-devel won't that then garantee that you have the correct version of gtk+-devel and gnome-libs-devel installed (because they get pulled in)? We could possibly also add version requirements on the other packages that are installed due to these BuildRequires: ghostscript-fonts freetype libstdc++2.10 libpng3 libnetpbm9 libjpeg62 libxml2 freetype2 libtiff3 netpbm libgimpprint1 liblcms1 XFree86-libs libMagick5 XFree86-xfs chkfontpath urw-fonts VFlib2 ghostscript ImageMagick libxpm4 flex gcc-cpp kernel-headers glibc-devel make libbinutils2 binutils gcc libtiff3-devel libnetpbm9-devel XFree86-devel libORBit0 ORBit zlib1-devel libpng3-devel libungif4 libungif4-devel libaudiofile0 db1 imlib libimlib1 libglib1.2-devel libgtk+1.2 libgtk+1.2-devel libjpeg62-devel libgdk-pixbuf2 gdk-pixbuf-loaders libgdk-pixbuf-xlib2 esound libesound0 libgnome32 gnome-libs libgdk-pixbuf-gnomecanvas1 libgdk-pixbuf2-devel libxml libglade0 db1-devel libgnomeprint15 libaudiofile0-devel libesound0-devel libglade-gnome0 libxml-devel libbonobo2 indent libORBit0-devel gnome-print libimlib1-devel libgnome32-devel oaf liboaf0 libglade-bonobo0 libGConf1 libgda0 GConf libgnome-db0 libglade-gnome-db0 libglade0-devel libscrollkeeper0 scrollkeeper But wouldn't that be a bit too much? (anybody any comment on this)? Should a package have no BuildRequires/Requires and just rely on the library names? See above.
