[Cooker] 8.2 install - RPMS2
I have done an hd.img install of 8.2 which lacked the symbolic link from the RPMS directory to the contrib directory, the link being called RPMS2. The install proceeded well, except at the end libmetakit, gnome-guile, flightgear, kwintv, openuniverse, sylpheed, etc were reported as "An error occurred...". These are all located in the contrib directory. So I created the missing link and reran the install, choosing "update packages only". _None_ of the aforementioned packages were installed!!! What did I do wrong? How does one get the missing packages installed? -- Ron. [au]

[Cooker] USB mouse problems
Hi there, I've problems with my Microsoft (yeah i know, but it rocks in CS) IntelliExplorer 3.0 USB mouse. First during installation the mouse works, but then after choosing USB wheel mouse and install shows my USB ports it stops responding. A quick look at kernel output console shows this message looping: usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout After finishing install with little help from keyboard, mouse works fine in X and KDE. But then sometimes while starting MCC, it stops working, and again quick look at the kernel logs shows the same mess. as above. Restart and everything works just fine. Any ideas? Known problem?

[Cooker] [Scandrake / Mdk 8.2 Final] UMAX2000P trouble/solution
Hi. Got a (exotic?) Umax 2000 _Parallel port_ but supported by SANE. Trouble with scan configuration tool: 1/ "Scandrake" writes "port /dev/usb/scanner" instead of "port 0x378" in /etc/sane.d/umax-pp.conf 2/ It's better to uncomment everything excepted umax_pp in /etc/sane.d/dll.conf 3/ the dynamic library libsane-umax_pp.so.1.0.7 does NOT work (at least with my scanner); for those who have Mdk 8.1 sane-backends, you can take libsane-umax_pp.so.1.0.5, copy it in /usr/lib/sane and: $$ln -s libsane-umax_pp.so.1.0.5 libsane-umax_pp.so.1 It WORKS François Le Clainche

[Cooker] Problem during install of 8.2
Hello, I came accross the following problem doing an "Update" intstall of 8.2 : Install had reached the "Load Bootloader" phase. I was asked where to put the boot loader and I selected MBR. A dialog appeared stating installation of the boot loader had failed due to a syntax "on or after line 28" in lilo.conf. (Running "lilo -v" on the same file produces no error output and correctly ammends the boot stuff) I was then offered a dialog offering me "Modify", "Add" and "Done". On selection of "Done" the dialog informing me that the installation of the boot loader had failed due to a syntax "on or after line 28" in lilo.conf reappeared and I was sent back to the dialog asking me where to put the boot loader (MBR or 1st Sector). And that was as far as the update could go ! I could basically only go around the same loop. No available option would either allow me to skip this step (understandable ?) or to edit the contents of lilo.conf (as I was doing an Update maybe this would be acceptable ?) Using the buttons down the left hand side and using F11 to effectively do an ntsysv I was basically able to complete a lot of the Upgrade, but I kept being taken back to the dialog asking me where to put the boot loader. All I could do was and reboot. Since I don't know what is wrong with lilo.conf it is a bit tricky to fix, but then if it is okay for "lilo -v" what is upsetting the installer ? Owen

Used urpmi nodeps to update all other pkgs to current, that is as current as Sunet. 2 rpms did produce errors/unexpected messages during installation docbook-dtd31-sgml ## Failed to remove entry from /etc/sgml/sgml-docbook-3.1.cat gcc-doc ## /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.49052: line 3: syntax error near unexpected token `;' /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.49052: line 3: `; # FIXME: that semi-colon should not be needed, nor the blank line' error: execution of %preun scriptlet from gcc-doc-2.96-0.76mdk failed, exit status 2 Remainder of pkgs installed without incidence. On reboot of system no problems were encountered, Nvidia drivers loaded and E started and runs as normal. Apps still requiring librpm-3.0.3.so, such as rpmdrake, will not run but this was as expected. Charles

[Cooker] 8.2 - cannot change Sawfish appearance
Just installed 8.2, running Gnome with Sawfish theme. I cannot change the appearance to any of the HeliX-Sweetpills. They appear in the list but nothing happens when I select them and click OK. It worked in beta 4. Are these appearances in some RPM that I perhaps didn't install?
[Cooker] Todays impressions on 8.2 Try 2
ok i repost this e-mail since the first one didn't seem to reach the e-mail list --- I just tried to install the download version on a system containing the following. Microstar K7TTurbo2 Socket A Motherboard (Microstar) Duron 1200 Mhz CPU 13 GB Western Digital Harddrive 48 X CDRom 128 MB PC-133. Now to my conclution. 1.Installation too less then 20 Minutes. Then boot into KDE (from pressing the powerswitch, bios detection Mandrake loader 7 second countdown till KDE is up and running fully loaded. 1 Minute and 40 seconds. This is not bad at all. 2.After installation i plugged in a test USB to Ethernet adapter manufactured by AMDtek, ran the "connect to the internet" program, The program found the USB to Ethernet adapter and configured it to work correctly. I really did doubt it would work. But it does. Great work. 3.Openoffice is still alittle slow to open, 35-40 seconds first time (since it has to load the configuration software), 15-17 seconds after that (after a cold boot). But i guess i can't complain, its still awhole lot faster then on my old k62-300. 4.Sound works out of the box. Great. So far i'm impressed. Keep up the good work. /MattB

Try compiling both x11 target and linux-fb target seperately, and compare their gtk+-2.0.pc and gdk-2.0.pc. For gtk+ 1.3.1x package, the x11 copy of gtk+-2.0.pc overwrites the one from linux-fb target, that means any program linked against gtk+ would be unconditionally linked against libX11 as well.

Quite a harsh comparision, but as the translator of DrakX I have to agree. The translations by themselves are not _so_ bad, but because there are a lot of untranslated strings and because they have just been written in the editor string by string as fast as possible without ever actually testing them or reading them again.. Ok, you got the point. Even I haven't been using the Finnish translations, because of they were not ready for the daily usage. What comes to translating this kind of projects it takes really long time for one or two people to translate even the Mandrake's own applications. By this far I have used over 100 hours of my time just to make rough translations for the few applications which come from MandrakeSoft only. Correcting the translations takes about the same time, so if I don't get any help, the next version won't probably have usable translations either. > after the install you run the risk of being faced with a > non-English KDE and other horrors (not that I use KDE). By your statements I suppose that you would use English anyway, were the translations perfect Finnish or not. I would also, because the official Finnish computer terminology sounds odd when you first hear it. But then, someone has to test the translations.. Regards, Matias Griese, Finnish translation team

Cooker binutils has already be changed, glibc to 2.2.5 too, so using current cooker packages OVER 8.2 probably could give further weird results. IMHO better to recompile those package .src.rpm under plain 8.2 and see if they'll giving the same problems in the case it's that you want to test under 8.2. Otherwise also other cooker libraries should be upgraded. Bye. Giuseppe.

In the next days, you should hear about another way to get StarOffice from Mandrake (final and full version). Wait & see Mandrake's PR.

Only yesterday I saw it fail for a G400/Nokia 447Pro combo, which rendered too large fonts (stretched bitmaps *shudder*) in KDM/KDE. And I've seen several cases where DrakX and XFdrake only offer 640x480 and 800x600 for modern (<3 years) hardware. I've written about that before. Ironically, the best results we've had have been with our computers that use a BNC connection, because that forces DrakX and XFdrake to skip DDC. How do other OSs deal with failing DDC? Is there a chance to detect when DDC is failing and prompt the user as a fall-back? Regards, Mattias

You can mount --bind /dev /lib/dev-mirror and then /dev contents ill be available as /lib/dev-mirror even if /dev has been mounted over.

You can set up that manually like this: -- Salvador Arroyo Fdez Dexxa STV602 patch dexxa webcam STV0602-AA Agilent QDCS 1005 ID: 870 from cvs module hdcs.c function hdcs_init change: line 96: STV_ISO_SIZE, 0x034f to STV_ISO_SIZE, 0x0284 line 115: HDCS_INTEGRATE, 0x9 to HDCS_INTEGRATE, 0x7e add about line 138: if (usb_quickcam_set1(dev, 0x1446, 0x01) < 0) goto error; compile an then run as per normal ./quickcam.sh xawtv -c /dev/video0 -geometry 320x240 STV602 sensor patch submitted by Salvador requires testing Using the cvs version which can be dowloaded from the online cvs without checking in all components have to be dowloaded --- 2) or you can sync with the CVS doing: Anonymous CVS Access This project's SourceForge CVS repository can be checked out through anonymous (pserver) CVS with the following instruction set. The module you wish to check out must be specified as the modulename. When prompted for a password for anonymous, simply press the Enter key. $cvs -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/qce-ga login $cvs -z3 -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/qce-ga co quickcam Updates from within the module's directory do not need the -d parameter. (from sourceforge) Then, $make $./quickcam.sh The module is loaded (insmoded) along with the necessary videodev and this time /dev/video* is created (not as before with the 2.4.18-6mdk mod_quickcam). Enjoy :P marc

Network installs will be hanging anyway for a long time because mirrors are so busy. There is no way to override the MTU for the network install from the install side. This is the first time we have encountered a firewall like that, but great thanks for the analysis. Good Job! Civileme
