Try to recompile the src.rpm, but before change the
optimization flags to mcpu and march=pentium (or i586)
instead of mcpu/march=pentiumpro, this usually did the 
trick for me on K6/2. This has to be done in 
/usr/lib/rpm/macros or similar 
(grep mcpu/march /usr/src/rpm/* :-).
(This might work in your own ~/.rpmrc as well, but I have
not tested it.)

Please define "old install of openoffice" (e.g. version-release). I am
afraid I am still not good at mind reading. There are problems when 
updating from OOo from 8.2 to the one from 9.0 with localized contents.

Well, it appears that the binary has something special with it because
it gives me an error "Illegal instruction."  This is on a K6/2 500 box,
so it's possible that it's an AMD issue.  I'm attempting to test it on a

Know that too.  I'm just saying one shouldn't have to
remove nisplus when all you have is nis.  In case
you're interested in the reason I need different maps
on the Linux machines, it's because the NIS maps say
to use cachefs for /home, which only works on the
Solaris workstations.  The Linux kernel people have
considered implementing it in the past, but never did

This is standard behavior. (NIS on Solaris and other Unix's do this)

This way one can have a nis server export an auto.master file so one 
doesn't have to modify every client machine on the network when a change 
to the auto.master file happens.

If your nis server does not export an auto.master file then you won't 
have a problem. If it does, but you need a different auto.master file 
for your autofs on linux, then remove nis and nisplus from 
nsswitch.conf. Autofs will still work with nis/nisplus/yp maps but it 
will not autoload the auto.master from your nis server.

This should not be changed, then nis on linux would be further different 
from other unix's.

[Cooker] OpenOffice install problems after RC2 upgrade

2002-09-17 Thread Dan Clayton

I hope this is just a problem with my local system but after testing RC2
for three days I found something that may be a fairly major problem for
users. I did an expert upgrade and had no real problems and I am amazed
it finds most of my hardware and things just work.

I had open office on my system before and it worked fine. I tried to
install the version from RC2 and it couldn't copy many of the files
into /usr/lib/openoffice. I tried as root, my regular user and my dummy
user and they all failed to copy needed files into /usr/lib/openoffice/share.
I uninstalled and will try again. Are the OpenOffice rpms working for
most people? My old install of openoffice is still working ok and it is
in my home directory as a user install.

I never had any problems with gnome1 or gnome2. That's why I didn't 
think of trying this...

Also KDE usually has problems for me on a single head, so I never 
bothered with trying to fix KDE. (no one uses it in my userbase so I 
don't really test it)

I guess gnomecc had a problem... a user just told me that the program 
never worked for him till I changed the font server settings. (Sometimes 
I don't know of bugs till they are fixed... quiet userbase)

Curious. That works fine for me with GTK1 and fails like you say in GTK2.
Perhaps with this info somebody can get the real problem. Here is a 'patch'.

I think the crux engine (or perhaps gdk_pixbuf??) is doing funny things
when vsize to put the pixmap is lesser than heigth of pixmap, or something
like that.

Anyways, I have found a workaroud. Problem looks like default
GtkScrollbar::min_slider_length is too small in GTK2. So if you just add
this on /usr/share/themes/Crux/gtk-2.0/gtkrc, you get a min size equal to GTK1:

style "default"
{
  GtkWidget::interior_focus = 0
  GtkWidget::focus_padding = 0
  GtkWidegt::focus_line_width = 3

  GtkRange::slider_width = 11
  GtkRange::stepper_size = 11
  GtkRange::trough_border = 2
+  GtkScrollbar::min_slider_length = 24  <

  GtkScale::slider_length = 16
  GtkCheckButton::indicator_size = 10
  GtkCheckButton::indicator_spacing = 3

(don't trust the rest of values, I've been playing. But marked one does the
trick)

That works for GTK2, do no know how to do it for gtk1.

Hope this helps.

I recall another instance where this exact step fixed the problems but I
can't recall the details about it.  I do not think it involved dual
head, but I could be wrong because I've slept (a little ) since then.
In this case, Mozilla was a red herring as the problem all along was

[Cooker] Linuxconf + devfsd bug

2002-09-17 Thread Bill Shirley

For a long time now, when exiting linuxconf, it states that some of my
services on my system
are not running (saslauthd, httpd) when if fact they are running and
doing a:
service httpd status
reports them as running.  I don't know why.

However, on one of two systems I have running 9.0 rc2 linuxconf says:
"Missing configuration file /etc/devsfsd.config for service devfsd".
The file is actually
/etc/devfsd.conf.  Where can I fix this?

TIA,
Bill Shirley





[Cooker] Postfix + SASL

2002-09-17 Thread Bill Shirley

After upgrading to 9.0 rc2 rpms,

[root@elmo cyrus-sasl-1.5.27]# rpm -qa | grep postfix

barkley.lan.shirleyfamily.net[192.168.4.4]: SASL LOGIN authen
tication failed

As best I can tell, the smtpd.conf file is no longer expected in
/usr/lib/sasl and upon rpm install noticed that it was renamed
to smtpd.conf.rpmsave but was not replaced with anything.  In
what directory should it be?

First, let me thank all those involved in putting together the rpms and
the great Mandrake distribution. And now:

  Why in blazes did the location of smtpd.conf move, if in fact
that is my problem.  I know that the SSL certificate for ipop3sd.pem
moved to /etc/ssl/imap.  However, I just looked at the docs that came
with the rpm to find out where to move it and fix pop3s.  Would it be
possible to include a README.rpm or README.rpm.watchout file in the
docs directory giving me a clue as to what I need to do.  I have spent
all day googling to find out WHAT CHANGED to break smtpd + SASL.

I spent quite a few nervous hours when I could not boot my system.  It
seems the developers of LILO decided that if you specify a software
raid device (boot=/dev/md0) that they should NOT write to the MBR like
they did in the previous versions.  You have to add:
raid-extra-boot="/dev/hda,/dev/hdc" to write to the MBR.


AH, I feel better now.  But truly, thanks for all the hard work you guys
put in to make things easier for us.

Thanks in advance,

Bill Shirley

Repeating what the other guy said, you are using a non-Mandrake webmin.
Remove it and install Mandrake's webmin rpm and your problem will go

[Cooker] BUG in KBabel...

2002-09-17 Thread Thomas Backlund

Hi,

I have a problem with KBabel translator...
The system is:
MDK 9.0 RC2 with the latest cooker updates.
Installed language support: English, Finnish, Swedish.

Finnish set as default language.
The system and the ispell translator accepts and uses the 
ISO-8859-15 charset, but in the settings for KBabel:

Asetukset->Tallenna->Koodaus (Settings->Save-> Encoding)

there existr only two choices:
- ISO-8859-1
- UTF-8

So where is ISO-8859-15?

Any ideas?
or am I missing something?

It seems to have worked in version 0.9.5, since in the headers of the
old packages that I'm correcting / Translating are:

"Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-15\n"
"Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit\n"
"X-Generator: KBabel 0.9.5\n"

Again, I'm too sleepy to read...your webmin is *not* a mdk webmin,
it's either a RH webmin or from somewhere else...that *is* your

 seanbyrne : 17/09 01:55 : Incident created I have a 
problem with certain CDs in all the beta - RC2 versions of 
Mandrake 9.0. When the system is running in KDE desktop (or 
terminal with ALT-CTRL-F1) with either a root user or 
restricted user, it can be brought down by simply inserting a 
Packet (UDF) CD-RW or a Video CD. When I insert either a UDF 
packet written CD or Video CD, and try accessing the CD, it 
will attempt to access the CD for about 20 seconds and 
shortly afterwards, the system will lock up including the 
mouse. Even pressing ALT-CTRL-F1 (to bring up the terminal) 
does nothing. I have not seen this happen in any previous 
version Mandrake even though it does not support packet 
written CDs. Windows ME, 2000 and XP on my PC have no 
problems with either packet written CDs or Video CDs and I've 
never seen the system lockup before by simply inserting a CD! 
I tried rebooting and accidently crashed the PC at a

[Cooker] mplayer doesn't return from full screen.

Does anyone know why after going to full screen with -fs or just the f key,
mplayer will not return from full screen?  Pressing the f key seems like it
tries, but doesn't actually succeed.

I compiled the latest mplayer following the directions in the files.  This
occurs on both my laptop (sony vaio with ati rage mobility video) and my
desktop (dual amd with geforce 2 mx video, using nvidia drivers).

I don't know whether this is a cooker issue or not, as i've not had a chance

As best I can tell, the smtpd.conf file is no longer expected in
/usr/lib/sasl and upon rpm
install noticed that it was rename to smtpd.conf.rpmsave.  In what
directory should it be?

First, let me thank all those involved in putting together the rpms and
the great Mandrake
distribution. And now:

  Why in blazes did the location of smtpd.conf move, if in fact
that is my problem.
I know that the SSL certificate for ipop3sd.pem move to /etc/ssl/imap.
However, I just looked
at the docs that came with the rpm to find out where to move it and fix
pop3s.  Would it be
possible to include a README.rpm or README.rpm.gottcha file in the docs
directory
for each package.  I have spent all day trying to find out WHAT CHANGED
to break pop3s.


AH, I feel better now.  But truly, thanks for all the hard work you guys
put in to make things
easier for us.

Thanks in advance,

Are you by any chance using AA fonts under KDE? Some nvidia cards lockup due
to overclocking, which the nvidia drivers do. Try this in your XF86Config-4, under  '  
Driver  "nvidia" ' add:

Option "NoRenderAccel" "1"

Re: [Cooker] autoconf tricked?

Looks similar as when you try to compile kde with automake 1.6 (instead of 
1.4).
I thought kde was at fault, but since Laurent seems to ignore my mails, 
maybe it is the script.

[Cooker] Microsoft Wireless Intellimouse support

2002-09-17 Thread Philip Zorawski



Hey, I own a Wirless Intellimouse and everytime I 
try to use it with mandrake 8.2 it develops some kind of positioning error were 
it mistakes the back and forward buttons (in the web browser) for actual pointer 
direction buttons. The mouse works perfectly fine during the installation and it 
notices the mouse but as soon as X starts up the mouse craps out. I just want to 
know if the development team is aware of this and is this an impending problem 
in 9.0?


[Cooker] Butt-ugly emacs color scheme

2002-09-17 Thread Tobias Ringstrom

Hello!

Please get rid of the default emacs color scheme in Mandrake 9.0rc2.  
It's hideous, does not resemble any other application, and it's hard to
get rid of since it's both in the files /etc/X11/Xresources and
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults/Emacs (from emacs-X11-21.2-12mdk). RedHat
had the same color scheme a long time ago, but they have dropped it.

And they say that's there no arguing taste...  ;-)

Re: [Cooker] PS2 mouse problem during install

I only use PS/2 mouse and have this problem.

Why disable? It works fine if you make sure to move only the scroll and
button until the lights on the image show the correct motions. Then it is
safe to move around with mouse and if it doesn't just use keyboard to hit
cancel button (tabbing to button still works) and re-setup the mouse from
the list of available types again. When you are done just test again and
repeat until you have the right setup for you. Sure using the keyboard is a
pain but it's only a couple of minutes while you setup you mouse.

P.S. The Drakeconf mouse utility has the same issue as they are the same
setup scripts. So even if they remove from install you still have to deal
with it after you are in the desktop!

Cheers,
David

Re: [Cooker] PS2 mouse problem during install

2002-09-17 Thread David Dreggors

Actually, I have found that when the Emulate 3rd button option is set in
XFree86Config-4 that this is when my mouse stops responding properly the way
you mention! I have to delete that line and either add or verify the line
ZAxisMapping 4 5 is present. Mandrake does have a known issue with this
problem but last I heard it was only when "FIRST" setting the mouse up and
then only with a Genius Netscroll Mouse. I just scroll the wheel a while and
hit the wheel button until the lights on the image of the mouse (in test
screen) light up correectly, then all is OK to MOVE the mouse around. Never
click OK until the mouse is responding properly. Sometimes I may have to
even use the keyboard to CANCEL which brings me back to the Choose Mouse
screen and I use keyboard to re-choose my mouse (Generic wheel mouse works
best for me). Then I check again with the test screen and all should work on
the second time around.

Cheers,

David

[Cooker] autofs + NIS problem

2002-09-17 Thread David Walser

Problem:
Even if you don't have nis in the automount: line in
/etc/nsswitch.conf, automount uses NIS.

Reason:
in /etc/init.d/autofs function getrawmounts() on line
121 you see:
nis*|yp)

which doesn't distinguish between nis and nisplus
(script is probably being lazy, because later when it
does the ypcat, it doesn't make a difference).  I'm
not sure what you could do to tell whether you're
connected to NIS or NIS+, but if there's something,
the script should do that and be smarter about what it
does.

Since you (Juan) probably didn't write this script, if
you want me to report this somewhere else, just let me know.

Nope, that fixed it.  Thanks Quel!!!

Now...!  Could the description in /etc/init.d/portmap
that says "The portmap server must be running on
machines which act as servers for protocols which make
use of the RPC mechanism" be fixed?  If you're an NIS

Re: [Cooker] Minor visual glitches in "Mandrake" gtk2 theme

2002-09-17 Thread Adam Williamson

Another couple:

1. If I drag a scrollbar in a GTK1 app, the scrollbar background (with
the little darker grey "groove" gets wiped and replaced with a sold,
smooth grey block. If I then move the cursor out of the window and back
in (making the app non-active then active again), the background is
redrawn.

2. Again in GTK1, the Mandrake theme isn't very good at doing very small
blocks in scrollbars (what's the little block that represents your
position in the page actually CALLED, anyway?) - in my Cooker mailing
list email folder, the block is tiny because the list is so long, and it
looks ugly - it looks sort of like the groove you get in the centre of
the block when it's long enough to be displayed normally, only rotated
90 degrees. Not very nice. 

I'm attaching a screenshot displaying the second issue (look at the
scrollbar of the article list pane, on the top-right). Apologies to 56k
modem users. Can't use a screenshot to demonstrate the first issue,
since the scrollbar background gets redrawn when the window goes
inactive, and taking a screenshot makes it go inactive :)

[Cooker] mplayer doesn't return from full screen.

Does anyone know why after going to full screen with -fs or just the f key,
mplayer will not return from full screen?  Pressing the f key seems like it
tries, but doesn't actually succeed.

I compiled the latest mplayer following the directions in the files.  This
occurs on both my laptop (sony vaio with ati rage mobility video) and my
desktop (dual amd with geforce 2 mx video, using nvidia drivers).

I don't know whether this is a cooker issue or not, as i've not had a chance
to try it on different versions of linux.

Confirmed; I had assumed this was an artefact of my (feeble) i815
onboard video! This looks ugly, particularly when a relatively small
scrollbar (relative to the size of the list) is moved in a number of
small steps :(

Interestingly, if you move focus away from the window then back again
and click in the box which has the scrollbar, the 'groove' is redrawn.

I'd guess the slider (that's what it's called) is a bitmap which is
progressively made smaller and smaller as the number of items in the
list gets larger and larger. So, if you have a slider with some sort of
non-regular appearance, its appearance is very difficult to control when
there are "lots" of items in the list.

That said, the appearance of the "very small" slider is strange as it
seems to have vertical graphics inside. There are no vertical graphics -
just horizontal ones - when the slider is "bigger".

(Doubtless some genius will eventually come up with SVG sliders which
can be scaled or otherwise manipulated :)

2002-09-17 Thread Stéphane Teletchéa

End of the terminal : (rxvt for example)
1 do a ls
2 resize (make bigger width)
3 hit return to hit the bottom.
4 try to ls a long file (something longer than the width of the terminal) and 
move back in the ls ; the line scrolls up instead of going to the next line 
!!!

This was present in 8.2, and still in 9.0rc2 ?
Is it known yet ?
I think rxvt is a light xterm and that's why it is used instead of xterm, but 
it is buggy !!!
A very annoying bug.

some cards are known to be bugged when XFree runs along with
bootsplash (e.g. framebuffer mode), so it's simply disabled.

If you press Alt-SysReq-S, then Alt-SysReq-U, then Alt-SysReq-B, does it
(in order) sync, then unmount, then reboot the machine?

That will stress the journal a litle less :).  If the kernel is halted
though, then it will not work.

Re: [Cooker] Samba problems with RC2

Then maybe this is a wizards-lib-samba bug?

Just please try this first, and see what happens:

# urpme samba-common
(removes samba totally)
# urpmi samba-server
(reinstalls it, so we get a good default configuration)
# service smb start
# smbpasswd -a 

Then you machine should be in workgroup 'MDKGROUP' and have it's 
hostname as it's netbios name. If you connect to it from a windows 
machine (assuming you use the same  in windows and linux), you 
should be able to see your home directory and a virtual PDF-generating 
printer (install a generic postscript driver on windows machines to get 
it to make you a PDF).

Now, reboot, and see if you can still do that.

If you can't, then maybe there's a problem with samba. If you can, the 
bug is elsewhere.

You should at least try and start samba as follows:

# service smb start

If that fails, check your logs. It is usually best to run 'tail -f 
/var/log/syslog' in one terminal while you do things like 'service smb 
restart'. If there's nothing there, please run 'testparm', and report 
any errors it lists. Please don't send me the whole output, rather send 
me the smb.conf file.

If this works, hten maybe there is a bug with the samba wizard. I would 
suggest first backing up your working smb.conf, then running the wizard, 
verifying that it doesn't work, then mail off the two smb.conf's to the 
maintainer of the wizards, you can cc me.

I think not. I just installed samba-server and webmin on a brand new 
installation, and webmin worked exactly right out the box, without 
telling it anything about smb.conf.

I have:
webmin-0.990-6mdk
samba-common-2.2.6-1.0.pre2.2mdk
samba-server-2.2.6-1.0.pre2.2mdk
samba-client-2.2.6-1.0.pre2.2mdk

I installed rc2 last week at a school as their primary domain 
controller, and it's working just fine (we rebooted the server a few 
times to test that everything works over reboots), so I am quite sure 
this is not a samba issue.

There are one or two issues with samba, but this is not one of them ... 
and they will all be resolved before final.

[Cooker] Minor pb, harddrake black screen

2002-09-17 Thread Quel Qun

Hi,
At boot time in no quiet mode, harddrake (I think this is this
service) blacks out the screen, then the "service [OK]" lines resume.
Using a suitable font, I could previously see on my screen the
whole boot process, now I have to pay attention to what happens
because the begining is wiped out by that not so good looking
black screen.
Not a life threatening issue, but it would be nice to fix this.

Not until mod_perl and mod_php are stable enough. There are many issues
right now, such as PHP pages remaining in browser cache, Apache-ASP,
HTML-Embperl, Apache-SSI and Akxit not working. 

Thse are serious issues since PHP is used by 38% of websites and
mod_perl by 36%. 

I think these issues will be fixed in the following months, until then,
Apache 2.0 will remain in the Contribs.

I answered your message asking a question:
Do you have portmap service enabled?
# chkconfig --list portmap should show it on.
If you look at the time tags, you will see that the network is
started at 08:45:14, and ypbind one second later.
The fact that they show up in a different order in the syslog is
a minor issue (buffering I would guess), but is not the cause of
your problem.
ypbind works fine here.
One more thing I remember, check that NISDOMAIN is set in
/etc/sysconfig/network. It is surely set since you can start the
service later on.
Good luck,

[Cooker] 9.0 RC2 Orinoco Gold card setup (Possible bug)

2002-09-17 Thread Mike Ortiz

Hello all,

I am new to the list and have just installed 9.0 RC2 on my Sony Vaio 
PCG-SR17 notebook.  It works well, however there seems to be a problem with 
wireless setup in the control center.  When I insert the card (Orinoco Gold 
Card), it lights up fine and is detected properly.  Here is the problem:

I click on "Network and Internet" in control center and select "connection." 
  When I run the wizard, I select "orinoco_plx" as the driver as it is the 
closest to my hardware.  Control center then complains about the selected 
driver not being correct.  (Which I totally expected.)  Then, it asks if I 
want to continue and give it some optional params.  I say "no" and am 
presented with a config screen showing fields for the IP address and such 
along with wireless config options (WIRELESS_FREQ, etc...).  I complete the 
setup here and save or "finish" the setup.

The issue is that the wireless information is not committed to the config 
files.  If I manually edit /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 and 
enter the wireless info manually and restart the network, it works.  The 
file does however have in it the IP information, bootproto, etc... that I 
entered in control center.

Here is what my /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 file looked like 
when control center was finished with it:

DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=static
IPADDR=192.168.0.6
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
NETWORK=192.168.0.0
BROADCAST=192.168.0.255
ONBOOT=yes

I added the following to the end to make it work:

TYPE=Wireless
CHANNEL=11
KEY=s:mykey
ESSID=mywirelesslan
MODE=Ad-Hoc
RATE=auto

I'm not sure if I did something wrong or if there is a legitimate bug.  I 
can provide more information if you need it, just specify what it is you 
need.

I apologize for the footer and any wierd formatting hotmail does to this

[Cooker] Minor visual glitches in "Mandrake" gtk2 theme

2002-09-17 Thread Alastair Scott

This theme slipped in very quietly: it looks good and does an excellent
job of reducing the visual differences between the KDE 3.0.3 and Gnome
2.0.1 default desktops ;)

I note a few minor glitches with gtk2 applications:

i. In toolbars, the arrows denoting drop-down menus (such as those in
the Nautilus toolbar) don't have a gradient background.

ii. Similarly, the backgrounds of logos (such as the Nautilus 'pebble'
at the right of the toolbar) don't have a gradient background.

iii. The border of the drop-down list with input focus, and of the
button with input focus, seems ragged and clipped to 0 or 1 pixel wide
at best, unlike the border of radio buttons and checkboxes which is 3
pixels wide and very clearly visible; see the various Nautilus
preference dialogs for a variety of examples. 

With gtk applications, such as Evolution, the border is consistently
wide.

And one more with both gtk and gtk2 applications:

iv. The marking of greyed out menu items by a 3D effect isn't obvious
enough and there's very little difference between disabled and enabled
items;

v. Menus don't take on the gradient background (but is that deliberate?)

When i go into mcc/server configuration/samba i am told that samba is not 
installed (this happens EVERY time) and to click 'ok' to install. I then have 
to setup samba services, workgroup and banner - that is what i mean by 
reinitialising! Before doing this, i cannot use linneighborhood or komba2 to 
browse my local network.

I did a fresh install of webmin and the smb.conf was pointing to 
/etc/smb.conf, not etc/samba/smb.conf. Webmin is fine!

[Cooker] 9.0 RC2 and ISA PNP/module problem

2002-09-17 Thread Eli Venter


I installed RC2 on an old pentium 100. text mode install was a bit buggy, but 
it worked. Problem is my ethernet card doesn't work. isapnp finds the card 
and says it's a SMC EZ 1660. I had redhat 7.2 on this machine before and it 
was working fine. ne module io=0x240 irq=12. On RC2 the module just doesn't 
want to load. Any ideas?

Everything else seems ok, my S3 868 video card was detect fine and turning on 
autologin avoids the problem with X starting that many people have had. Seems 
like a nice release, if I can get my network up.

thanks

-Eli

error reading information on service samba: No such file or directory

-> I just wanted to say that 'chkconfig --add samba' and 'chkconfig --add

Yup.

The service is called 'smb' after 'Server Message Block', the protocol 
used by samba and Windows Networking. The same way there is Apache which 
provides the 'httpd' service.

Maybe you should just do Start->Configuration->Mandrake Control 
Center->System->Services. Then you can't get it wrong. Check the little 
check box next to 'On boot', and then click the 'start' button.

Re: [Cooker] ypbind fails on boot

2002-09-17 Thread David Walser

Has anyone looked into this?  I did a bit...looking at
messages after booting, I see:

Sep 17 08:45:15 mccarthy ypbind: ypbind startup
succeeded
Sep 17 08:45:15 mccarthy ypbind[977]: Unable to
register (YPBINDPROG, YPBINDVERS

then later:

Sep 17 08:45:07 mccarthy network: Bringing up loopback
interface:  succeeded 
Sep 17 08:45:07 mccarthy ifup: Determining IP

and:

Sep 17 08:45:13 mccarthy ifup:  done. 
Sep 17 08:45:14 mccarthy network: Bringing up

I think you get the idea.  rc5.d shows an S10network,
and an S17ypbind, but from the log, it looks like
ypbind is getting started before network.  Possible
initscripts problem?

Looking into it further, it *appears* that running
concurrently with rc.sysinit are some of the startup
scripts in rc5.d, like usb, gpm, and ypbind, but
network is going later than all of these.

Ok, this was probably related to the buggy 2.4 kernel with C3
detected as a i686, right?

Other than that, if you have the contrib during install, the
install will install a 2.2 kernel, select "linux-2.2" in the boot
menu and it should work (but linux-2.2 is not the default
choice).

I've tested that, both with 2.4 and 2.2 it boots after a
network.img-2.2.19 install.

[Cooker] Horizontal frequency is too high on shutdown in 9.0 RC2

I have boot set up to 800x600 and it looks 
good and pretty. My monitor detected correctly 
(30Khz-70Khz FH) and the same behaviour is 
observed when I select custom monitor and specify
these parameters.

However, on shutdown/restart, frequency is way
above 70Khz.

How do I change that? It's critical as it can
damage my monitor.

I know, that I can change vga=normal in lilo.conf,
but I don't want to.

Please help!!!
