[Cooker] KDevelop editor wierdness

With the latest KDevelop from cooker (2.1 beta), I've been having an odd 
problem in the editor. I believe this is because KDevelop tries to continue 
comments when you press enter like in vim. If I type "for(i = 0; i < 5; i++)" 
and press enter, the next line will begin with "fo".. this would probably 
work better if the first line was a comment starting with //.

ditto. don't think it's really worth the effort either since

ah. but no XFS filesystem still! lol. thanx for the tip tho. i'll go

i did finish the install via 12x cdrom, but it took a couple of hours

I *upgraded* on my firewall/router which has 48MB and the upgrade left
the machine in a "half upgraded" state.  Packages from CD #2 (ssh
server for instance) were not upgraded and I was not made aware of it.
Only that sshd did not like the ssl lib installed did I even notice

Re: [Cooker] mdk terminal server/thin clients (was:DrakX -- installer bugs)

2002-04-01 Thread SI Reasoning

The only reason I can think that a user with less than 42 meg ram would 
install mandrake would be as a thin client. If that is the case, could the 
installer not be shrunk enough to do the bare necessary for a thin client.

To my mind the needs would be:
To recognize and install for the hardware
networking
X
rdesktop/citrix client /rfbdrake/vnc

a nice touch would be to boot to a menu with the choice to use local X 
server/vnc, or use rdesktop/citrix to a windows terminal server, these items 
could be defined during install, including other such things as local font 
servers, nas servers and installation of nas, etc.

I think Mandrake would make an excellent X terminal server for desktops, why 
not take the extra step to make building thin clients easier using Mandrake's 
excellent installer I can see a mdk enhancement of ltsp mixed with mosix 
clustering for the server.

[Cooker] Kdevelop and htdig are broken.

2002-04-01 Thread Nicholas Brown

My previous mail to got no response.

It looks like the fix for KDE bug #34152 has not been applied to Mandrake. 
(kdelibs-devel) and thus using kdoc in kdevelop is broken.

And using the documentation creation facility in kdevelop using htdig (either 
in the options->kdevelopsetup menu or in intaial setup dialog) has been 
broken in mandrake for as long as I can remember. compalains about not being 
able to create the index. try it and see.

To fix this the kdev_htdig rpm needs create/include the directory 
/usr/share/apps/kdevelop/htdig/db/

These two kde packages need updating.

This allows the creation of the search indexes.
I not sure if it allows the searching to work for projects, (Shift F2 in 
kdevelop still does not work for me) but it is a step closer. It probably 
needs to be looked at closer.

Doing my bit to try and help,
thanks,
Nick

Yes, the installer somewhat requires more memory than what a
"minimal" system can have to run a (console only) Mandrake
distro. It sucks but I think we can't change that so easily. And
normally a text install should be possible with 32MB of memory

It's not enough, when calling the "mount" command I need to
specify the filesystem type, adding the module is not enough,
modifying the program is also needed.

Yes, this is a known limitation. I don't try to detect the
floppies, I just assume you're using /dev/fd0; I think the use
for more precision is not worthe the effort and the supplementary
bytes.

Use the second cdrom, it boots on "isolinux" which contains all

On my working 8.1 install, it has something like irq11 & io 0x140(?) but
the aha152x bios (on card bios) states to use irq9!

while doing the 8.2 install, i tried explicitly with irq9 (and the above
io port settings) to no avail.

This card does work in 8.2 with isapnp.conf:
  (IO 0 (SIZE 32) (BASE 0x0340) (CHECK))
#   IRQ 11.
# High true, edge sensitive interrupt
  (INT 0 (IRQ 11 (MODE +E)))
(note: while the s/w bios on the aha152x specifies irq 9)

I believe that this is an individual issue with the cdrom.img (floppy). 
It's an off & on issue as if, as soon as someone fixes one issue with
the cdrom.img, it causes another issue. sort of like a tedder-todder

I believe that this is an individual issue with the cdrom.img (floppy). 
It's an off & on issue as if, as soon as someone fixes one issue with
the cdrom.img, it causes another issue. sort of like a tedder-todder
effect.

Some cooker version installs worked since 7.2 and some haven't. i
believe I was able to install 8.0, but not 8.1 with a cdrom.img. (just
guessing here).

2002-04-01 Thread Paulo Henrique Baptista de Oliveira


Hi all,

Where I to get them?
TIA,Paulo Henrique.

I perfecly know what cooker is and I'm able to use it! Looking at the
way answer you probably just boot cooker, update cooker, shutdown
cooker. What a very pleasant and helpful guy you are!

I'm realy pleased to have meet someone who knows what the futur will be
and is thus conviced every gnome program will be ported to Gnome2 in the
next developpement cycle of the Mandrake distro. Mandrake is certainly
the reference distro used by the Gnome Fundation for their planning!

Cheers,

[Cooker] libxml2 offered twice.

2002-04-01 Thread Han

Hi,

It really looked weird when I got the chance to download two different
versions of libxml2.

To satisfy dependencies, the following packages are going to be
installed (13 MB):
libxml2-2.4.19-3mdk.i586 libxml2-devel-2.4.18-1mdk.i586
libxml2-python-2.4.18-1mdk.i586 libxml2-devel-2.4.19-3mdk.i586
libxml2-utils-2.4.19-3mdk.i586 libxml2-python-2.4.19-3mdk.i586
libxml2-utils-2.4.18-1mdk.i586 libxml2-2.4.18-1mdk.i586
Is it OK? (Y/n) 



Groetjes, Han.

This card has a number of jumpers that must match...  mine is setup for
0x340,9 too and the jumpers are like this (looking at the card with the
ISA connector down; jumper=1, none=0): J5: 01001100
J6: 1110
J8/J9: 00010001
I have 4 HD, 2 tapes and a scanner on this card...
