[Cooker] New MySQL and proftpd

2002-10-15 Thread Quel Qun

MySQL source is available here:

http://www.mysql.com/downloads/download.php?file=Downloads/MySQL-3.23/mysql-3.23.53.tar.gz

The rpm builds with the current spec file minus the 3rd patch.

Hi all,

i can confirm this misbehavior on 3 different machines. This even 
happens when installing software from cd. Suddenly the files can no

[Cooker] KPresenter/OpenOffice print setting conflict

2002-10-15 Thread Barry Rountree

This is also on Mandrake Expert as incident #35156, but since it's much closer 
to a bug report than a question, I thought I'd cc it here.

1) Description: Printer settings in KPresenter are carried over to [Open|Star] 
Office.

2) How to reproduce: 

Open a multi-page text file with [Star|Open]Office Writer. Print it out. Works 
perfectly. 

Using KPresenter, open an arbitrary *.ppt file. 
File->Print-> 
a) Correct printer selected, 
b) Print Filtering NOT toggled 
c) System and Advanced options are all set to default 
d) Verify we're using CUPS e) Click "Properties", select "US Letter" for page 
size and "4" pages per sheet. 
d) Click save. Click ok. 
e) Click cancel to get back to the original *ppt. 

***extra bonus buglet: Going back to print properties shows that "4" pages per 
sheet is still there, but page size has reverted to "A4".*** 

Switch back to [Open|Star] Office Writer, print the document again. 

OOOPS! It applies the settings from KPresenter. 

Also note that Writer doesn't have a selection (that I noticed) for changing 
number of pages per sheet. 

Sooo... what did I miss?

System is 9.0 with all updates, pretty much everything installed except the 
server stuff.  Printing has been working well overall.

Thanks,

[Cooker] Of cups and Kamppeters...

2002-10-15 Thread Richard Tango-Lowy

My LM9.0 SMP server locked up hard this evening, and I couldn't get it
to boot and stay up.

Booting into single-user and (after some research) doing "df -i" showed
650K out of 650K inodes in use. I tracked them down to
/var/spool/cups/tmp. There were many, many, gs_* files there. (I wrote a
script to remove them and it's been at it for several hours. Release 80K
so far).

I found many instances of the following in the logs:

Oct 14 12:21:48 neuron ptal-mlcd: ERROR at ExMgr.cpp:2469,
dev=, pid=1271,
e=2 Couldn't find device: llioOpenOne failed!

This error appears when cups is running but the officejet is turned off
or unplugged. I'm guessing the inodes problem and the cups error are
related. Thoughts?

Hi,

Since the wine shipped with 8.2 didn't work for me, I was very happy
some time several months ago when I pulled one from cooker,
wine-20020411-2mdk, that worked just fine. Now I could get rid of my
8.1 cd's.

Imagine my surprise when I got around to testing wine in 9.0 and found
that it doesn't work at all. Again, I can't even run notepad. I tried
deleting my wine config file and updating from the default, but
nothing helps. I've gone back to the wine-20020411-2mdk package I had
from before and it works fine under 9.0.

Am I the only one having trouble with the 9.0 wine package?

Sometimes they are in the initrd, sometimes not, but the mount still 
fails. I have reported this on the list before, I don't know what other 
details I can offer that would be of help.

One of two things happens:

1.) The installkernel script complains that it can't find the xfs 
modules and exits, even though what it should really do is try to build 
the initrd anyway.

2.) The initrd is built with the correct xfs modules, and the initrd is 
correctly added to lilo.conf (although, sometimes not, and I have to add 
by hand).

3.) Upon boot, mounting the root FS still fails.

There seems to be several bugs in the installkernel script, but I'm 
still surprised that I have been able to fix this problem manually.

As long as you're running cooker, I don't think it's off-topic.

Anyway, to answer your real question.  I've been running cooker on an
IBM T23 for 4 months now without a hitch.  Sound, video, dvd, etc. all
work perfectly (initial install with 8.2, then made the switch to
cooker).  I haven't "installed" 9.0, so I don't know if there are any
glitches with that.

Don't have that card, but what driver are you using? You need prism2_cs
or orinoco_cs for 128-bit WEP, nothing else will work. With Orinoco, use
iwconfig to set the key, or add a line like this to
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethX:

WIRELESS_ENC_KEY=""

A fairly recent (though not current) set of wlan-ng drivers is actually
included in 9.0. The support software, though, isn't. Someone has
packaged the necessary utils and posted the location to this list
before. Search the archives. Then you need to do a bit of fiddling
around to make everything work, since the wlan-ng drivers use wlanX
while everything else uses ethX.

That is incorrect.  It does work on ext3 and has worked since beta 1.
The problem is that it doesn't work quite the way you think it does.  A
regular user cannot view his own quota usage.  This is due to a shift in
kernel theory, the shift being to move "policy" out of the kernel and
into userland.  The kernel only supports enforcement of that policy
and not manipulation of that policy.

Quota is not supported for Reiserfs though.  A few versions back it was
supported, but that was a patch added by Mandrake which is no longer
being applied.

I think it's the /etc/resolv.conf problem. If I remember well wwwoffle doesn't 
reread the resolv.conf file when it change. kppp modify the resolv.conf file 
with your provider's DNS when you connect to internet. So if you start 
wwwoffle before kppp, wwwoffle doesn't know your provider's DNS. To resolv 
the problem you can write your provider's DNS to your /etc/resolv.conf file. 
I think the problem is described somewhere in the wwwoffle doc.

Agreed, I too have put XFS as the root partition and the mandrake

Yep it's all great now including WEP128 :)
Now it's time to setup IPSEC, so more fun in sight ;)

AFAIK, there is a database abstraction layer in qt3. I guess it is linked 
against mysql and postgresql libraries. So it is quite normal qt3 requires 
mysql and postgresql libraries while qt3-devel requires mysql and postgresql 
devel package. What is curious however is that more than just library and 
devel package are required, so maybe there is something to do at mysql and 
postgresql package level.

Anyway, real solution would be to split qt3 package if possible, to put the 
qt3 database abstraction layer in a distinct package if possible (i've heard 
it was a plugin)

Laurent, do you don have the same constraints for qt3 as for kde packages, 
meaning they have to support other distributions as well ? And would you 
consider such a spec patch ?

No, but you can rebuild them with your own kernel-BOOT to have them

I just had time to test wwwoffle a bit and it seems to work
fine except one old problem for dialing in. If I just dialed
I have to restart wwwoffled or else it won't fetch anything.
It seems it tries to connect to some server and if it does
not find it, it'll never try again or (more probably) it
checks the network interfaces only on startup
If have a permanently eth0 network interface and a
ppp0 network interface which I start on demand using kppp.

I second OpenLDAP to be included in drakconf. I never got any luck w/ 
OpenLDAP until lately by using SME (used to be e-smith) distribution. 
When you add a new user in SME, it's automatically added to LDAP server.

I haven't tried userdrake extensively so I can't comment if it works 
flawlessly the same but I do wish there will be a LDAP configuration in 
drakconf.  I did read the how-to on mandrakesecure.net but got some 
errors (don't remember what the error was) and it's rather a lengthy 
how-to IMHO.

i would prefer, that mandrake would first make possible, that all 
configuration that can be taken at installation time would also be possible 
in mandrake control center.

in suse linux 8.0 for example, you can enable/disable ldap authentication from 
their yast tool at any time. in mandrake this is only possible during 
installation. on a running system, you have to do it manually...

[Cooker] MDK 9.0: userdrake does not save settings

2002-10-15 Thread Spiderboy

hi all

when using userdrake to manage users in a ldap directory, you first have to 
specify the ldap server, it's base dn and so on. then, you would enable the 
checkbox "edit accounts on a ldap directory" in menu settings - preferences.

with this checkbox enabled and quitting userdrake it does not save all of the 
settings made.

starting from a console i could see the following message:

** Error **: cannot unlock the user lib??
aborting...

when leaving the checkbox disabled and quitting, everything goes fine and the 
settings are saved (except that on the next userdrake session, you have to 
remember to enable the "edit accounts on a ldap directory" so that you can 
manage your ldap dir.)

[Cooker] MDK 9.0: ldap authentication and userdrake

2002-10-15 Thread Spiderboy

hi all

i am using userdrake to add users and groups to a ldap directory. userdrake 
creates objects of type "GroupOfUniqueNames" to store group membership. there 
it writes the distinguished names (dn) of the users belonging to the group 
into the attribute "uniqueMember". but such a user is never recognized by the 
system as a groupmember of the specific group. i tested this with the "id" 
command.

manually adding the user id's into the attribute "memberUid" resolves this 
problem. it seems that only this attribute is checked during logon to 
recognize group membership.

there should be one of the following to fix this isue:

either
change userdrake in a way, that it also writes "memberUid" not only 
"uniqueMember"
or
fix the authentication process (i don't know... is it nss_ldap?) so that it 
recognizes group membership stored as dn's in "uniqueMember" attribute.

...i would prefer a combination of both ;)

[Cooker] Wrong deps for libgtk+-x11-2.0_0-devel?

2002-10-15 Thread Quel Qun

Hi,

Trying to install libgtk+-x11-2.0_0-devel:

$ rpmU libgtk+-x11-2.0_0-devel-2.0.6-8mdk.i586.rpm 
error: failed dependencies:
libgdk_pixbuf2.0_0-devel = 2.0.6 is needed by
libgtk+-x11-2.0_0-devel-2.0.6-8mdk
libatk1.0-devel >= 1.0.1 is needed by
libgtk+-x11-2.0_0-devel-2.0.6-8mdk
libpango1.0-devel >= 1.0.1 is needed by
libgtk+-x11-2.0_0-devel-2.0.6-8mdk

The problem is that urpmf cannot find these last two deps.
$ urpmf libatk1.0-devel
$ urpmf libpango1.0-devel
$

Shouldn't the requires be libatk1.0_0-devel and
libpango1.0_0-devel, just like it requires libgdk_pixbuf2.0_0-devel?

The same problem happens for
libgdk_pixbuf2.0_0-devel-2.0.6-8mdk.i586.rpm. It requires
libglib2.0-devel, but urpmf cannot find it. It would find
libglib2.0_0-devel though.

I am not sure if this is the dependency system or urpmf's fault,
but something is not consistent here. 

PS: urpmi finds everything automatically.

Not sure why there aren't any messages newer than the 10th (there are 
on the expert list), but I fixed the dated list, so the October page 
will show up as soon as a new message arrives.  For some reason my

[Cooker] phplot/gd not rendering images under apache2 "undefined function: imagecreate"

2002-10-15 Thread Eli Stair

Hi all.  I've got an issue when using the most current Cooker packages for Apache
apache2-2.0.43-1mdk,apache2-mod_php-2.0.43_4.2.3-1mdk. GD - php-gd-4.2.3-1mdk, 
and PHPlot - phplot-4.4.6-1mdk.  Verified gd is loaded and supporting PNG and JPG
with phpinfo.

With gd.so loaded and the phplot dirs copied under /var/www/html/phplot, 
phplot/examples/format_chart.php works fine, so php is OK. phplot/doc/quick_start.php
loads and says it is working, but displays no image, but when continuing testing, 
examples/test_setup.php has output as following, and displays no image.

Test to see if GIF graphs work
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: imagecreate() in /var/www/html/phplot/\
examples/test_setup.php on line 27

Recommendations for pursuing this?  

Cheers,

/eli




Re: [Cooker] VIA EPIA 800 C3 processor - Walmart issue?

2002-10-15 Thread George Mitchell

Excuse me for dragging this issue around one more time, but isn't 
Walmart selling VIA C3 machines with Mandrake preinstalled?  If so, were 
these machines introduced with 9.0 or 8.2?  If they were introduced with 
8.2 and buyers attempt to upgrade to 9.0 this could become a real pain 
for Mandrake.  I would be a very unhappy customer if I bought a Mandrake 
based machine and then had problems reinstalling Mandrake on it.  Has 
anyone checked this out?

[Cooker] Font size in K logon manager screen sometimes wrong at startup

2002-10-15 Thread Eric Fernandez

I have a problem since mandrake 8.0 with KDM. When the login screen 
appears, sometimes the font is smaller than it should really be. I have 
to restart X, sometimes several times, before obtaining the correct font 
size. And if I logon in KDE with these smaller fonts, all the KDE 
desktop has smaller fonts too. I use Verdana 12pts with antialiasing as 
the general font.
I don't know how to diagnose that bug, since it is not reproducible...

No software in main or in contrib is restricted. See the recent article 
on Mandrakeforum on urpmi, I posted instructions on how to setup urpmi 
for contirb there.

And even RPMS requested on the Mandrake Club are free (as long as the 
original source is free enough, and after they've been through testing). 
See the unsupported/MandrakeCLUB section of the Mandrake-devel mirrors.

There is a new version out, but I didn't manage to get it to actually 
keep soffice running (which is the whole point), so I was waiting for final.

The fact that our cooker mirror hasn't synced since before 9.0 final is 
also making it a bit more difficult ...

RC2 is in contribs (9.0 and cooker), I will give RC3 a shot now ...


To find if a package has ever been in the distro, use:
http://cvs.mandrakesoft.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/contrib-SPECS/%{name}
http://cvs.mandrakesoft.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/SPECS/%{name}

to check CVS. I have a mozilla bookmark which is setup with a keyword of 
specs and a url like this:
http://cvs.mandrakesoft.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/SPECS/%s

and one with keyword contrib-specs like this
http://cvs.mandrakesoft.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/contrib-SPECS/%s/

So, I just type: "contrib-specs oooqs" to search for a package in

I don't think I can do it with Ben's rpmmon-type web interface. Ben, 
would it be possible to set it up so I can do:

http://ben.reser.org/mandrake/rpmmon/rpmmon.cgi?package=oooqs so I can 
make a new bookmark called rpmmon with a url of
http://ben.reser.org/mandrake/rpmmon/rpmmon.cgi?package=%s ?

Yes sir.

Just to make sure I send an accurate report first,
correct any errors.

It's a bug report on arts, and it says that arts is
linking libmad0 (an mp3 library) and there's no

Good question.  On 9.0, having not modified anything,
my path is:

/usr//bin:/bin:/usr/bin::/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/games:/home/walser/bin

So, the problems are:
1) /usr/bin appears twice
2) /usr//bin has two slashes (haven't people reported
this to be a problem?)
3) /bin is after first instance of /usr/bin in PATH

Fix would be just get rid of whatever's putting that
/usr//bin there.  Also, with the specific problem
Charles is having, it sounds like /usr/bin/su is a
symlink to somewhere that doesn't exist.

Anyway, I don't think that null should be in the path
either (/usr/bin::/usr/local/bin), as that means
current directory (security problem!).

So where are all of these problems coming from?  I
just checked, and it's /usr/share/config/kdm/kdmrc,
where I see:

UserPath=/usr//bin:/bin:/usr/bin::/usr/local/bin

I don't know how that got like that or why it's like
that, but it's not good :o)

You don't need a different version of pcmcis-cs -- the prism2_cs
driver from wlan-ng is included in the Mandrake kernel packages as of
9.0. You do need the configuration utilities from wlan-ng, which are
not included. I have packaged them here:

http://users.erols.com/peromsik/prism2-utils-0.1.14-1mdk.i586.rpm
http://users.erols.com/peromsik/prism2-utils-0.1.14-1mdk.src.rpm

[The second is the source RPM, included as a subtle hint to the cooker
developers-- you don't need it.] 

To use the driver with PCMCIA cards:
(1) install prism2-utils
(2) edit /etc/pcmcia/wlan-ng.opts with your network settings,
(3) make sure you have an /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-wlan0
(probably you already have ifcfg-eth0 to use as a guide).
(4) Then, "service pcmcia restart" and you should be in business.

By the way, plx-based PCI cards work too, with a similar procedure:
(1) install prism2-utils,
(2) edit /etc/wlan.conf with your network settings,
(3) make sure you have an /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-wlan0
(probably you already have ifcfg-eth0 to use as a guide).
(4) add one line to /etc/modules.conf:
"alias wlan0 prism2_plx"(4) "chkconfig --add wlan".
(5) start the driver. The easiest way would be to reboot, but you
could instead make sure any other driver (like orinoco_plx) is unloaded
first, and then run "service wlan start; service network restart".

[Cooker] emacs-w3, emacs-url, other 9.0 issues

2002-10-15 Thread Aaron Peromsik


Hi,

So I finally got 9.0 installed on a couple machines. In general I love
it, but there are the usual handful of issues. Do the developers
prefer that I list them all in one email, or one-by-one? Just wanted
to clarify that point because I have noticed different people here
choosing different formats.

I'll start with one issue meanwhile: it was around RC3 when I noticed
that secure IMAP didn't work with Gnus enymore. Yesterday I finally
tracked it down: secure IMAP requires ssl.el, which is part of the
emacs-w3 package. It seems that emacs-w3 and emacs-url were included
in RPMS4 of the 8.2 DL edition, but got dropped from 9.0 with the rest
of contribs. Probably these two packages should move to main?
Meanwhile I have installed the ones from 8.2 and I'm back in business
email-wise. (Of course mozilla always worked but I find gnus more
convenient for wading through cooker mail.)

Have fun,

Because mysql and postgresql haven't been packaged
correctly, so to get the -devel stuff for those that
it (qt-devel) needs, it needs the base packages too.

Chris, my pentium mmx @ 200 mhz has no problems with 8.2, but I can't 
get it to run 9
and this is with an ide cdrom, not a cdrw.
always hangs on second stage.
nice to know you got it working, maybe I'll switch cdroms around and try
