[Cooker] kernel-source-2.4.19-18mdk make bzImage fails while compiling smbfssupport.

Turned out /etc/alternatives items for lp* were still pointing to
lp*-lpd instead of the lp*-cups versions; manually fixing that and
restarting cups and smb fixed the problem.

[Cooker] SMB Printer is skewed

Has anyone seen a situation where smb gives garbage for the name
of the printer?  This is using the RPMs directly with cups and smb
and doing nothing to the default configuration (which looks fine
for my purposes), but what I get with smbclient from any remote
machine is

I can't find reference to "the remote ho" in any Samba docs.  The
relevement smb.conf lines appear to be correctly setting the printer
as a cups system, and I can print to that printer using the cups
service from a remote linux machine.

What's missing in the smb config?

[Cooker] Changing display mode

2002-11-03 Thread Alex Horvath




Hi All
 
I have a Supermac j900 running Mandrake 
8.2PPC.
 
I've got an ATI Xclaim VR (Rage II) and an Apple 
17" Monitor.
 
The current display mode is 800x600 (i think the 
refresh is 75).
 
I'd like to change the display mode to 1024x768 @75 
or 85, but I can't seem to do it. 
 
I figured out that X is using the 
/etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file for the configs, but if I add 1024x768 to the Screen 
section, X errors out with a signal 11.
 
I know that the monitor and card can do 1024x768@75 
because I use this on the MacOS.
 
I've tried the default 1024x768 settings, plus my 
own that I generated at http://xtiming.sourceforge.net
 
Thanks in advance!!!
AH tm.

Thanks Ben.  Works rather well.  This should be in the distro, not the 0.4.2

[Cooker] everybuddy-0.4.3-3.20021017.1mdk

There are a number of issues with the version currently in cooker and
shipped with 9.0. Many people have experienced lots of crashes with it.
Apparently the MSN module doesn't work because of a bug in the
everybuddy build with gcc3. The Yahoo module has bugs in it that can
cause the entire app to crash. Unfortunately even the currently
released version (0.4.3; cooker is still with 0.4.2) doesn't fix all of
these issues.

I've been running a CVS version for the past several weeks. It seems to
resolve most of the issues and is really rather stable. I've uploaded
it to incoming and put it on my site. It's available at:
http://mirror.brain.org/linux/breser/i586/cooker/RPMS/everybuddy-0.4.3-3.20021017.1mdk.i586.rpm

Please use the release number I used... it keeps it compatible with my
0.4.3 packages that a number of people are already using.

Same RPM is good for 9.0. I also have just the 0.4.3 release (not the
CVS version up). But that RPM certainly has the Yahoo crashiness in it
and the buggy MSN module.

Lenny, you're listed as the maintainer of the package... Considering
that you're rather busy with other things I'd be more than happy to take
on maintaining this package. I've been building my own RPMs of it
anyway just so I can get the fixes which doesn't seem to make their way
to cooker as fast as I would like.

At any rate here are the details on the package I uploaded:

Okay the module is there... it just won't load because it's missing a

This has been fixed in the CVS version of everybuddy.  I have a RPM of

2002-11-03 Thread Philip Webb

if it worked, Oooqs would provide an important front-end to Open Office.
however, neither the 0.9.5 in Contrib nor the 1.0 RPM on the Oooqs site
will work at all on my Mdk 9.0rc1 update from 8.2 (otherwise satisfactory).
i did get it to create an icon in the KDE tray,
which i then deleted with the intention of reordering the Kicker contents
& have not been able to recreate again, despite reinstalling the RPMs;
yes, i did delete the file in  .kde/share/config  .
there is an entry in the KDE menu under Office -> Accessories,
but it simply starts a process without any screen display:
in fact, several such processes can be running simultaneously,
if you try to start Oooqs more than once.  no problem using Open Office itself.

any suggestions?  or do we have to wait till the Oooqs folx get it right?

[Cooker] Mandrake 9.0, CUPS, PrinterDrake and HP DeskJet 400

2002-11-03 Thread Joe English


Just wanted to say that PrinterDrake *rocks*!
Getting printers to work on Unix has always been a
massive headache, but the Mandrake tools make this
messy, complicated job almost easy.

That said, I did run into one hitch :-)

The "recommended" CUPS driver for the HP DeskJet 400
is "GhostScript +hpijs-rss"; unfortunately this one
doesn't seem to work in Mandrake 9.0.  It uses the
/usr/lib/cups/filter/pstoraster filter, which in turn
calls 'gs ... -sDEVICE=cups ...'.  

But the version of GhostScript in Mandrake 9 (ghostscript-7.05-28.1mdk)
doesn't include the 'cups' driver.  (I think this is only
available in the ESP GhostScript distribution, not sure).

I finally got it to work by switching to 'expert' mode 
in printerdrake and selecting the 'GhostScript + pcl3' driver.

[Cooker] Problem of interaction between hotplug and the sound

2002-11-03 Thread Eric Piel

Hello,

I have a problem on my laptop that may affect a lot of other laptop
users now that ALSA is the default sound driver.

During the boot procedure just after the pcmcia module is loaded
hotplug is launched. I'm not sure why because there is not any
explicit command in the scripts but I assume it's automatic when the
pcmcia module is loaded.
Until now everything is fine: it tries to coldplug my pcmcia
network card and it succeeds.

The problem is that it also coldplug *all* my pci devices. This is a
bit weird because I allready have normal scripts to do load the
modules for those devices. The main problem is with alsa because when
the alsa script try to start alsa it detect it as already loaded and
directly stop without doing any post loading operations.
Therefore the mixer settings are not restored and I can't hear any
sound until I launch a mixer and set the volume by hand.
The problem may even be worth sometimes when hotplug try first to load
the oss module before the alsa module => no alsa sound available => no
sound in kde.

So what should I do? It seems stupid to put in blacklist all my pci
cards (even if it's what I've done so far). Should I consider the
coldpluging as the 'right way' to do load the module and try to port
all the clever things done in the rc scripts to hotplug?

[Cooker] Micro package manager

2002-11-03 Thread Luca Olivetti

Did you look at the uPM (micro package manager)
at http://u-os.org/upm.html ?
Interesting ideas. I'm not sure they can be incorporated into RPM, but 
some of them could be incorporated in the supporting tools (urpm*).
I particularly like the idea of triggers (no, they're not the rpm 
triggers) and the management of configuration files changes (some of it 
has been implemented in rpmdrake but in a less useful manner).
Other characteristics of the uPM system can be/have been accomplished 
with clever rpm macros. Take a look, you won't be disappointed.

I've had several times XMMS locking hard - and it's not full duplex. OTOH, 
artsd does use full duplex. I see absolutely no reason to run XMMS via artsd 
with artsdsp, for I've got SB Live! meaning 32 PCM channels mixed in 
hardware. And that is perfectly supported by ALSA. But who knows, it may be 
some interaction of XMMS and artsd with ALSA that does the lockup.

A lot. For example, when I log in in the text console, the system takes a lot 
of time to reboot or just stalls UNTIL I EXIT THE TEXT CONSOLE SESSION. I 
suspect that somewhere there are a lot of some .rpmnew's and that some old 
versions of initscripts just don't play good anymore with the recent version 
of the system - it has been continuously upgraded since Mandrake 6.0, 
including several hardware upgrades and transfers to newer discs.

Bleah. I've never seen anything that bad from a plugin. I wonder what else is 
wrong?

When Konqueror is already locked, there is no help to kill artsd. After I try 
to kill it, even 'ps' just stalls there, and there is even no possibility to 
reboot - the system just stalls waiting for some process to finish. Keyboard 
reacts and all that, but no advancement. But, when I stop artsd before I try 
to load the site, the plugins work. I'll try to play with artsd options -  
let's see what the reason may be. As I guess, artsd tries to lock /dev/dsp, 
and then nspluginviewer just stalls while waiting for /dev/dsp to be freed. 
But why the hell artsd  should behave like this in case of SB Live!? There is 
no reason to lock /dev/dsp as there are 32 channels. There is almost no 
reason for artsd even to exist in this case - as the sound channel mixing is 
done in HARDWARE.

[Cooker] fluxbox-0.1.12-4mdk

I added the remember patch.  Myself and a couple other people have been
running this patch for the last couple days without any problems.  It
adds support for fluxbox to remember various properties about a window
between sessions and to start apps in a Startup menu.  I also fixed a
missing prereq chkfontpath.

Lenny, ignore the fluxbox.spec I uploaded... the SRPM is in incoming
though.  

For those that want to play with this before it gets pulled into contrib
it's on my site as 3.1mdk:
http://mirror.brain.org/linux/breser/


Name: fluxbox  Relocations: /usr 
Version : 0.1.12Vendor: MandrakeSoft
Release : 4mdkBuild Date: Fri 01 Nov 2002
03:16:43 PM PST
Install date: Fri 01 Nov 2002 03:20:47 PM PST  Build Host:

Packager: Ben Reser 
URL : http://fluxbox.sourceforge.net
Summary : Fluxbox is a windowmanager that is based on Blackbox.
Description :

Fluxbox is yet another windowmanager for X.  It's based on the Blackbox
0.61.1
code. Fluxbox looks like blackbox and handles styles, colors, window
placement
and similar thing exactly like blackbox (100% theme/style
compatibility).  So
what's the difference between fluxbox and blackbox then?  The answer is:
LOTS!

Have a look at the homepage for more info ;)

* Fri Nov 01 2002 Ben Reser  0.1.12-4mdk
- Added remember patch
- Add prereq on chkfontpath to shut rpmlint up.

No, that doesn't help. It's  impossible to kill a process in uninterruptible 
sleep state. The process is waiting for some I/O that just never finishes. 
And I would give much to know which I/O it is waiting for and whether there 
is some way to remove this process altogether by some other means than 
'kill''.
