This is old problem with glibc-2.2.5 and only Mandrake reply to this

question why do you need to set this variable. The only solution I found 
to this problem is
downgrade the glibc to 2.2.4 version.

[Cooker] Saving passwords

Hi once again, 


I seem to be on a roll.  Has anyone else noticed that neither mozilla

[Cooker] Mandrake 9.0 beta 1 install report

2002-07-18 Thread David Walser

First, to explain the subject, the NFS install which
works now (yay!) says 9.0 beta1.  The network boot
image and HTTP install still say 8.2

When both NFS and HTTP start second stage install they
say VERSION file missing, even though
mdkinst/usr/share/VERSION is in place.

The NFS installation can not install contrib packages,
like the HTTP used to do.  HTTP has improved a bit,
it's now hit and miss on contrib packages.  The 16
misses I had came from the libapr0 and apache2 SRPMS. 
When these fail, virtual console 3 says "refusing
medium 2."

The first few stages of the installation seem faster
in the HTTP than NFS.

If you click no on a failed package and go back to
selection (or go back to it later any way for that
matter) it doesn't quite remember your package
selection right.  It can forget some things you had
selected, and select things you didn't have selected
(examples: bc, grub, sudo).

Using network boot image, when you get to configure
networking it says it can keep what you've already
configured.  If you don't click yes or no, but click
an earlier installation stage instead, when you get to
network config again, it will have forgotten that.

The choose packages step freezes the installation if
it finds no packages to install (say everything you
had selected is installed and there aren't newer
versions available).

On the busybox command line, rpm doesn't recognize the
--provides or --requires options (but does recognize
--whatrequires and --whatprovides).  Also, neither
reboot or shutdown work.

I was wondering why when you get to the package
selection step does it rebuild your rpm database (in
upgrade).  It takes a long time.

This upgrade enabled services I had disabled (I was of
course able to fix that in the services step). 
Yesterday's didn't do this.

In upgrading, it forgets your bootloader options
(CLEAN_TMP, lba).

In trying to test the X this time around, the error
message I got looked like xfs wasn't working.

[Cooker] MakeCD Problem

2002-07-18 Thread Kurt

Hi all,

I am new to this list and to using cooker, so please forgive if I don't
follow established procedures in posting my problem.

I just used wget -rm to download the Dresden cooker mirror. I have also
run wget a second time to make sure everything was up to date. I have
been using the README.MakeCD instructions in the misc directory.

When I attempt to create ISOs using MakeCD I keep getting and error
regarding access to libperl.so that I just can't get past.

Here is a copy of my command and the result:

[root@franklin /]#
/xtra/cooker/ftp.vat.tu-dresden.de/pub/Mandrake-devel/cooker/i586/misc/MakeCD -t 
/xtra/iso/ -a /xtra/cooker/ftp.vat.tu-dresden.de/pub/Mandrake-devel/cooker/i586/

/xtra/cooker/ftp.vat.tu-dresden.de/pub/Mandrake-devel/cooker/i586//Mandrake/mdkinst/usr/bin/perl:
 error while loading shared libraries: libperl.so: cannot open shared object file: No 
such file or directory
[root@franklin /]# 

I made slight edit to this for clarity, I have separated  the command
from its resulting message. When the command is run it does not put a
space or linefeed between the command and resulting message. In the
terminal window the end of the command "/i586/" butts together with the
start of the resulting message "/xtra/" 

The reason I make note of this is that in the resulting message
"i586//Mandrake" stands out as a possible cause for the problem.

I have experimented in leaving off the trailing / in the the command.
But I always get the same No such file or directory error.

Any aid will be appreciated.

Thanks,
Kurt

Hmm. Tried this. rpm -V just doesn't seem to *do* much on either of my

letters to indicate errors), but I get no output at all...am I missing
something? Just running 'rpm -V perl'. If I do something absurd like

Re: [Cooker] portmap: user rpc not found, reverting to user bin

2002-07-18 Thread Brandon Long

I got the same. also this was causing my console login right after boot to be 
unresponsive until the portmapper timed out and reverted to the bin user. I 
just turned the service off because I don't use it much except for that one 
day, to make it work the rpc user just needs to be added.

[Cooker] sendmail-8.12.1-6mdk newaliases hanging issue

2002-07-18 Thread Peter R. Wood

Greetings,

I have noticed a few others on this list reporting an issue where the
sendmail daemon hangs when starting up from the initscript. It hangs while
trying to run newaliases.  I believe the following is the root of the
problem:

# here is what the user will want to execute:
# /usr/bin/newaliases. It is a symlink, as it should be,
# to /etc/alternatives/mta-newaliases
#
lrwxrwxrwx1 root root   32 Jul 18 14:52
/usr/bin/newaliases -> /etc/alternatives/mta-newaliases*

# ok, now here is /etc/alternatives/mta-newaliases,
# pointing to /usr/bin/newaliases.sendmail. This is good too.
#
lrwxrwxrwx1 root root   28 Jul 18 14:52
/etc/alternatives/mta-newaliases -> /usr/bin/newaliases.sendmail*

# herein lies the problem: /usr/bin/newaliases.sendmail is a
# symlink to /usr/sbin/sendmail.sendmail
#
lrwxrwxrwx1 root root   25 Jul 18 14:52
/usr/bin/newaliases.sendmail -> ../sbin/sendmail.sendmail*

There is not actually a /usr/sbin/newaliases.sendmail binary - just a
symlink back to sendmail! Which is why it hangs, it's trying to run
sendmail with no arguments, which just waits for user input, and besides
that, it's not even the write program.

Querying the package file seems to say that the
/usr/sbin/newaliases.sendmail is included:

$ rpm -qpl /var/cache/urpmi/rpms/sendmail-8.12.1-6mdk.ppc.rpm | grep newalias
/usr/bin/newaliases.sendmail <-- there it is!

However, it looks like perhaps during postprocessing, the binary gets
overwritten with a symlink back to sendmail.sendmail?

Thoughts?

Peter

[Cooker] BUG : hdparm does not set dma with chipset intel 82845 845 rev04

2002-07-18 Thread E . Fernandez

I have a laptop with a chipset Intel 82845 845 (Brookdale) rev 04. If I try to   
activate the DMA with hdparm -d1 /dev/hda, I get the error message :   
HDIO_SET_DMA failed.
Apparently it occurs because of a bios mismapping (see 
http://www.van-dijk.net/linuxkernel/200222/1021.html), the mandrake 8.2 boots 
with the same error message than reported in this thread : PCI: Device 00:1f.1 
not available because of resource collision. This occurs only with Mandrake 
8.2 and RedHat 7.3. There is no problem to activate DMA on this laptop with 
the Slackware 8.1 distribution, which installs the same 2.4.18 kernel. So I 
guess there is a patch for that issue.
This is a very bad limitation : with mandrake my hard drive works at 5Mo/s,   
with Slackware, it works at 18Mo/s. 
This problem occurs also with cooker.

[Cooker] automount of usb-storage device

2002-07-18 Thread jerome villette

Hi all,

Dont you think that an automount of any usb-storage device with
automagically link on the desktop (like /dev/video stuff) could be useful.
I bought such wonderful device recently (64Mo usb drive ~ 70Euro) and I did
the automount stuff by just copying the cdrom line in fstab and replacing
the /dev/hd* with /dev/sda1 which is on my config the usb flash drive. It is
working well.

On package selection, there is simplified code now which have been uploaded some

Well, yeah, that would do it, but I would rather have the
kernel/lilo/BIOS all agree on where things are.  It may not be an
issue to day, but sweeping this one under the carpet may become an
issue some day down the road.

Right.  But who knows why one day, how the disagreement between the
kernel and the BIOS might bite me.

I think I am more concerned about the second error than the first.

Since you have to be root in the first place to modify sshd_config, to
useradd, to vi shadow, then you're already root, and why would it be
necessary to deliberately then make a remote hole? The only use I could
see is a scripted trojan or worm.

I guess that you are talking about transfugdrake.

It is in stand by right now, as Christian, the official
maintainer, must first work on draksec.

[Cooker] install without X not possible

2002-07-18 Thread Goetz Waschk

Hi,

I've encountered this problem when trying to do a server install of
Cooker by upgrading an 8.2 installation:

urpmi --auto-select fetched XFree86 and the GUI versions of the setup
tools, all for one dependancy:

[root@conwar12 root]# rpm -e chkfontpath XFree86-xfs XFree86-75dpi-fonts-4.2.0-16mdk 
XFree86-100dpi-fonts-4.2.0-16mdk drakxtools-1.1.8-5mdk harddrake-ui-1.1.8-5mdk
error: removing these packages would break dependencies:
kudzu is needed by dynamic-0.5-2mdk

kudzu has been obsoleted by harddrake-ui, so the dynamic scripts
require a full X installation. Could this be fixed please?

CU

Re: [Cooker] Still no NFS install?

I don't know about right at this moment in cooker, but we did a cooker NFS 
install monday morning from my laptop's cooker mirror to another.

I deleted the /etc/webmin directory and then did
rpm -U --force webmin-0.990-1mdk.noarch.rpm

Now it works just fine
