Re: [Cooker] Supermount in MDK 9.0

I've been trying to find info on the Track network card id option you get during install without success. If such an option exist, how can it be activated? If anyone knows, please tell me too :) Well, It seems the Track network card id is an elusive option to say the least and I do not think it actually works at all! Can any good cook out there prove me wrong? Luckily, since the config pbms I had with my wireless network card have been fixed it sort of fixed this pbm as well. Basically, I now have eth1 for my 3Com ethernet (wired) PCMCIA card and wlan0 (instead of eth2) for my SMC 2632W wireless PCMCIA card. Thanks to the wlan-ng utilities I installed, when I insert the 3Com card it uses eth1 and when I insert the SMC card it picks up wlan0 (and it all works whatever the order I insert the cards). The only ennoyance is that it's always the old default route which is kept so you may still have to ifdown ethx then ifup ethy to get the default route you want (example, when you are using your wired network and want to switch to your wireless network, the default route will still use your wired ethx... not good) (or you can hack the /etc/sysconfig/network to do something else for the default route). That's an area that needs improvement to make it seamless to insert/remove PCMCIA network cards without the need to drop down to the console and apply some magic :) 2) I've got a SMC 2632W Wireless card which works fine without encryption. Activating 128bits WEP is a no-go. Has anybody had success using WEP with this card? 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=key As a hex string with no spacing. 3) What is the status for wlan-ng (prism2 stuff) and LM9.0? Can wlan-ng be installed alongside LM9.0 and a normal distribution of pcmcia-cs? 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. Yep Aaron posted a message with the location of the prims2 utilities he packaged himself. I tried it and it all worked fine incl. WEP128. I also replied on both cooker and expert lists. Here are the location of the RPMs again (note: in mozilla I have the plugin rpnp.so which takes care of RealPlayer Plugin Metafile (*.rpm) and I couldn't download those rpm files...) 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 /Fred

[Cooker] Wireless and MDK 9 (repeat post)
I'm using a Netgear MA301 with MA401 on a desktop (that is the card with a PCMCIA-PCI adapter). With beta 4 everything worked perfectly (autodetected and working). Since RC3 (I skipped RC1 and RC2) though, it doesn't work anymore (except during installation where the card is detected, the network is brought up, traffic is generated to check for updates, etc.). After installation, nothing works anymore.

At work, you plug your laptop on its station, that has a additional network card, that we call card_work. You start your laptop, and the card_work is interfaced to eth0, and card_home to eth1. The pb is that the ifcfg-eth0 reflects the config of card_home, and is linked to card_work. Solution : have a program called after the cards has been interfaced, and before the network has been started. It will check the module and the mach address of the interfaces (ethx). And it will swap the configuration so that they reflect the correct interfaces. To do that, you have to add the module and the mach address in the ifcfg-ethx files. That what the option does.

[Cooker] Problem with Xchat?
I am running Mandrake 9.0 with Xchat (1.8.9). I have it both on my Dell Latitude desktop and my home computer (Athlon XP 1800+) Neither box is running cooker, so I am ready for the flames about which list to use, but I am looking for someone that can possibly duplicate the error. Who better than the people that make my OS of choice? =) Anyway... when running xchat (under Gnome 2) if I open an gnome-terminal, su -, and do an rpm -Uhv or a urpmi --auto, xchat core dumps. It has done it on both platforms. If anyone can duplicate this, or if I can provide the core file to anyone, please let me know, I will take it off list. Thanks, Patrick

Re: [Cooker] KPresenter/OpenOffice print setting conflict
Till Kamppeter wrote: It IS possible: The printing dialog of KDE saves the printer option settings in the ~/.lpoptions file, which is the general file to save personal printing options for CUPS. It is also used by xpp and by the command line frontends lp and lpr from CUPS. As OpenOffice.org calls the lpr command to print, option settings done with kprinter (the KDE dialog), xpp, or lpoptions (command line tool of CUPS) are also used here, as long as OpenOffice.org does not give contradicting options into the PostScript it sends. And this only happens if you choose the name of your printer queue in the printing dialog of OpenOffice.org (the name WITHOUT ...) and set options with the Properties button. But not that this only works for printer-specific options as the Properties dialog lists. To change your personal default for n-up printing (4 pages per sheet) you need to use kprinter, xpp, or lpoptions. My .lproptions for my HP970Cxi only contains: Default hp_dup orientation-requested=6 Is that why I have to continuously tell it for every printing application invocation that I wish to use: A4 paper not Letter, kprinter -stdin not lpr(great long string), no collate reverse output not collate don't reverse?

as well. This happens *very* sporadically tho, but I've noticed that
upgrading packages does seem to trigger it, although I don't know why.
I've got transparent backgrounds in gnome-terminal, and I thought that
might have been the cause, but it still happens with the standard
background as well.
I haven't had an opportunity to dig into it further, but I do find it
really frustrating as I don't want to use any other terminals (now that
I've gotten spoiled with the tabbed terminals, I don't want to go back

I'm having a problem with the cursor keys, however, in two programs specifically (though the problem may be more global than that -- I haven't run that many applications yet). The cursor keys don't move the cell selector in Gnumeric, they move the whole sheet (as if I'd clicked on the scrollbars). In Maple 8, which was working fine under 8.2, I don't know about the betas, the cursor keys do nothing at all.. everything else works fine. This is true of all combinations of shift-alt-and-control with the cursor keys and is also true if I use the numerical keypad. Does anyone have any ideas?! Take care, Onsi

Re: [Cooker] Gnomba does not mount shares properly in 9.0
I am overwhelmed by the response :-| . I have looked at the source and there have been very few changes (1 in fact) to this open-source project in the last year and a half. It might be worth bringing it up to date. I have found the (increadibly simple) solution to this problem: For those who might encounter the same difficulty, you need to tick the Using Samba 2.0.6 or greater setting in the options-preferences-advanced-options panel.

[Cooker] Install partition manager hoses Highpoint Raid array
During the beta cycle I was surprised to find Highpoint 370 raid support in the kernel. So instead of using the open source driver I tried the hptraid module. I installed to a plain disk first, then inserted the modules ataraid and hptraid. What it gave me was /dev/ataraid/disc0/part1 from what I could tell in the kernel docs, it should have been /dev/ataraid/d0p1. No biggie. Then I rebooted on the installation cd, chose expert and inserted the ataraid and hptraid modules. The disk partitioning app (diskdrake?) found /dev/ataraid/d0 I made the three partitions (on raid0 array). Upon reboot the Hpt bios reports the raid array is broken and the partition table is wiped out. The raid array has to be deleted and recreated. So I used the open source driver and made partitions and copied the sytem over, then made a custom initrd and got /,swap, and /home on the raid array. /boot and lilo are on hda. I took the 9.0 final release and decided to try an upgrade. Again I chose expert, installed ataraid and hptraid modules. Came to the disk app and again I had /dev/ataraid/d0. The partitions were already there so I just told it ext3 and mount points thinking the partition table isnt going to be touched. But when I tried to continue it said writing partition table to disk. All I needed was to format / so it would be clean. I exited and rebooted and sure enough the raid array was broken again. Is the mount point or type written to the partition table? Jack

[Cooker] MDK 9.0: Use of nss_ldap causes /usr not to unmount
hi all the reboot and halt scripts stop when trying to unmount the /usr partition. the script is terminated and the system does not reboot or halt properly. very nasty... a fuser -vm /usr command at this point shows the following: USERPID ACCESS COMMAND /usr root8471 m. S01REBOOT this means, that a shared library is in use by the rc script itself. i discovered, that the use of nss_ldap is the reason for this. tell the system in /etc/nsswitch.conf to use ldap and this phenomenon happens. i also discovered that when the whole filesystem is in one partition, it does NOT happen. it only happens when /usr is on a separate partition (usually on servers). doing a ldd /lib/libnss_ldap-2.2.5.so shows the following: libldap.so.2 = /usr/lib/libldap.so.2 (0x40024000) liblber.so.2 = /usr/lib/liblber.so.2 (0x40055000) libsasl.so.7 = /usr/lib/libsasl.so.7 (0x40061000) libkrb4.so.2 = /usr/lib/libkrb4.so.2 (0x4006f000) libkrb5.so.3 = /usr/lib/libkrb5.so.3 (0x40084000) libk5crypto.so.3 = /usr/lib/libk5crypto.so.3 (0x400e6000) libcom_err.so.3 = /usr/lib/libcom_err.so.3 (0x400f7000) libssl.so.0 = /usr/lib/libssl.so.0 (0x400fb000) libcrypto.so.0 = /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0 (0x4012c000) libdb-3.3.so = /lib/libdb-3.3.so (0x401f6000) libdl.so.2 = /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x40295000) libnsl.so.1 = /lib/libnsl.so.1 (0x40298000) libresolv.so.2 = /lib/libresolv.so.2 (0x402ac000) libc.so.6 = /lib/i686/libc.so.6 (0x402bd000) libcrypt.so.1 = /lib/libcrypt.so.1 (0x403dd000) libpam.so.0 = /lib/libpam.so.0 (0x4040b000) libdes425.so.3 = /usr/lib/libdes425.so.3 (0x40413000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 = /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x8000) as you can see there are several libraries loaded by lib_nssldap that reside on /usr/lib. copying these to /lib resolves the problem. many of the postings here regard desktop programs in mandrake linux. i understand, that this is important to mandrake. but wouldn't it be nice to play an important role in the server market? this is not the only issue when using ldap with mandrake (see my other postings on this list). i hope, mandrake will fix these bugs as soon as possible. these problems were not difficult to find (why did nobody at mandrake test this? i think the beta tests are no good for such features because most of the freaks out there only test their video players etc.) ldap is important when trying to replace windows servers with linux/samba and manage user accounts. try to improve quality please... thank you spiderboy

I've got a Compaq Armada 700 that was a breeze to install. ONE thing to avoid. SiS chipsets.

Re: [Cooker] Laptop recommendations?
I have a Compaq Presario 1200, it's name is HELL, and for good reason. That's what installing was on this thing. Once I got the thing to actually install though, it works great. I can reinstall on here quite easily now as a matter of fact just by turning off auto dectection (for some reason, it still detects everything, it just dosen't hang up doing so anymore.) But all of that aside, I'd reccomend NOT purchasing one for linux use. From what I've seen of Dell's machines, they seem to work pretty good for Linux use. I know my boss uses one as his main computer, and it works like a champ. On Wednesday 16 October 2002 10:14 pm, James Sparenberg wrote: I've got a Compaq Armada 700 that was a breeze to install.

[Cooker] anonymous proftpd
I had an ugly time trying to do an anonymous ftp install of cooker to a cooker box.

Sony Vaio FXA49. After I accidently dumped a quart of iced coffee into the keyboard, Sony said Sure, no problem!, mailed me a priority overnight shipping box, and had it back to me (hard drive contents intact) a week later. With that kind of customer service, I'll put with many, many glitches (and there haven't been many). Barry

Re: [Cooker] Laptop recommendations?
depends on the model of dell. I have an inspiron and do have a couple of problems with it. minor, like the missing save to ram file their proprietary bios looks for ( unless you have their windows still on the system you lose this file ) and no support from dell for the inspiron in canada. ~g~ but as far as linux on it, runs great. if you want to lose windows on a dell you will need to save a significant amount of hd space for a partition for the save to disk function from bios to work. the partition wants roughly 25% of the hard drive, at the beginning of the drive. if you remove any partition it will grow and eat that space by default. a dell thing.
