Why?  They're not going to scan for a version before trying to exploit. 
 They're just going to hammer every DNS server they can find.  I've 
said it before a million times but, let's make it a million and one:  
Security through obscurity is no security at all.

Anyways, bind8 is only in 7.2 and SNF7.2... 8.0+ install bind9 by 
default.  I'm actually impressed that bind9 isn't affected by any of 
this, but it sure makes it easy to support.  Why are you still using 
bind8 (I'm assuming you're not using a 7.2 box since this is on cooker).

Actually, the real question, is why are you still using bind at all?  
ISC screwed the pooch on this one big time...  I wouldn't touch bind 
after this mess with a 10 foot pole.

Re: [Cooker] new rpm and unpackaged files

[Gwenole Beauchesne]

Hi,


But this is not possible because building failed now. I want just
confirmation about the better way to build without including this files.


I retranslate my reply. ;-)

make install shall not install %doc files. That's all. So, either you 
remove those files from $RPM_BUILD_ROOT, either you teach make install 
to not install files that you will %doc in filelist.

Bye,
Gwenole.

ntfs is ready on read only, i use it on a daily basis, no problem.
I even get it to write one day ( by mistake, just delete some useless 
directories ).
Of courses, there is a lot of versions.

But all we need ( i think ) :
1 ) to get the register ( easy, these file are well known , system.dat, and 
user.dat )
2 ) to read it ( difficult part ), and to get the information on a simple 
format.
3 ) To found the useful info. Not to difficult, if we only do some apps.
I mean, it should not be to difficult to extract the info for a internet 
connection, no ? Just take a look at some keys, and get the info. This 
heavily rely on the step 2.
And, as we all know someone who have a windows version, we can get a lot of 
system to test, just grab the files.

But, I think there should be a problem with the fact there is different user, 
whith different configuration, which should be maped to other user on the 
system. Or, some information may be stored encrypted ?

The project should be resurrected, but, i do not have the skills.
But, if someone want windows config files, i can help.

Yes , but, there is commercial alternatives under Linux.
Varicad, which seems to be a complete and good replacement for autocad.

3D studio max, and the others, there should be something, if ILM use Linux, 
this means there is software.

Oh, i'm sorry, I didn't reread my mail, i ve said that you can't do flash 
without paying.
And, in fact, it is not true, you can use ming.

But, flash is very graphic ( didn't say easy ), and i'm pretty sure that a 
good software can do much more than it. I mean, some thing such a scripting, 
plugins, and so on.

Now there is SVG, this type of tools should appear, no ?

SVG norm is very interesting, I hope it will make flash disappear ;)
Maybe in 3 years ?

And, to be honest, most web site do not use Flash.
Web site of web designers, movies, and that's all.
I don't say that it is bad, but it is badly used...

So, the lack of support of flash is not really a problem, and Macromedia is 
offering a plug in ( not a very good one, but it could be worst ).

Some people will always have something to say on Linux, and say that a 
firewall is useless,but  be very happy to have ICF ( Windows XP firewall ).
And say that now, they don't need to switch to linux.
If they pay for crossweavers plugins and for hancom office, they will have a 
better os with almost everything they need.

Re: [Cooker] Mandrake Made Easy: a modest suggestion for Windowsusers[linux , what sucks ?]

hmm, the lack of graphics problem isn't news to me. ~g~ sure there are a 
lot of graphics apps, but only the gimp is of the same quality as most 
windows based graphics apps.

pointing out that there are roughly an equal number of people using 
linux ( all distros ) and macs to these non linux software companies may 
get them to port, but nothing else will.

reading the configuration files from windows at install of LM isn't as 
simple as it sounds.. with the weirdness in the different windows 
versions. and the xp ntfs that isn't read by linux yet.

Jason,
add Autodesk, Discreet, Mcneel & Associates, Maxon, actually all 
graphics app companies for windows graphics, to your list of arrogant 
windows only companies. ( Autocad, 3D Studio Max & Combustion, 
Rhinoceros Nurbs Modelling, Cinema 4D, the respective apps of the 
companies listed )

ease of installing post market apps is something windows is good for, 
but with most linux apps even the graphical front end to urpmi works 
fine. if linux was only as capable as windows, then it could fit onto 
one cd and there wouldn't be multiple cds involved in installing apps.

at this time windows user will go out from windows and come to linux ...

Yeah I noticed that, but does KDE know what compiler
flags it's compiled with and changed the default
kdebug configuration?  I think this is a seperate
issue.  Also, I think Mandrake's KDE packages, even in
stable releases, have generally been this verbose.

Mandrake's rpm now checks for files that are installed in the %install
section but are not included in the %files section.  Rather than just
warning you about this.  rpm just flat out fails to build.  Frankly I
think this is an idiotic change.  But I'm really not in the mood to
start the argument about it.  

You can add:
%define _unpackaged_files_terminate_build 0
to your spec file to disable this check.

perl_sitelib was removed when they switched to perl_vendorlib.  Might be
nice to add it in but I think part of the point is to get packagers to
use vendor instead of the site tree.

We know all this, but there's nothing to be done about it. Get American

I retranslate my question:

%make install install this files on $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/usr/share/doc, but better 
place is in %doc (wich have %version-%release), before latest update of rpm, 
all files in /usr/share/doc was not list in %files section, but we had %doc 
doc/*. But this is not possible because building failed now. I want just 
confirmation about the better way to build without including this files.

Bye, thanks for this quick answer ;)

Hi,


How do you deal with this type of files, all are packaged under %doc, 
but
rpm-build failed: (actually I `rm` it in spec)

rm it from where? Under $RPM_BUILD_ROOT? Then that's normal, %doc file 
is not meant to have file "installed" under $RPM_BUILD_ROOT.

So, if you have in your build dir, saysNEWS, simply %doc NEWS, don't 
install it. This behavior hasn't changed.

very good answer 
windows user you have to call and  ask company to port programs to linux or

you will got all windows user with this , really ?

oh yes  , I forgot windows user have a lot of interress to spend time in
supporting linux 

it's just what suck with linux , you want something contribute it !!!
what ?
the windows user MUST be a programmer to use linux ?
or make a call and wait 
(it's what  windows user will understand from youre answers)

really , your serious ?
As I said the only alternative I see is wine going to v1.0 and working...
it really seams to take a while before this to hapen

and for company porting theire apps forget it ...
Linux seems not give them any gains...

I know I speak for windows user  what do not want to use command line at all
and
that do not know what is plf (why ask him to know that plf exist , it is not
mentionned officially ...)
contrib 
it's hard for a windows user it's just the problem ...
tell me that rpmdrake is searching also @ contrib + plf I will told you it's
ok witch is not the case
and not documented in easy help , windows user are user that did not want to

dvd ... or playing a game  etc
windows user understang get this install execute next next next finish .
it works .
it's more simple
go to plsf tape urpmi.admedia
missing package (what?)
Aille you've to add also contrib change 2 time install cd's etc...
it's too many thing to do for a windows user ...

It's simply sucks for him...

even if you say there is remplacement on windows, they will say it sucks.
Everybody use winzip, and it sucks.
I have seen freeware which were far better (more formats, and so on ).
But everybody still use winzip.


On other thing , you can use flash without paying 350 euros to Macromedia, I 
mean, if you are honest.
But most people are not honest.
Sad but true.
They will use windows, just because everybody do that.
They use winzip, because everybody use it.
Of course a cracked version, but they don't mind, they are not alone.
We can't do a thing for them.

What we can do, is to make our families, our friends, some people who don't 
use a computer, who don't mind typing their text on word or in abiword.

Forget it.
I think that Wine will never be ready, or at least never for the last version 
of windows.
We need to have native software .

  you use urpmi.addmedia to add a contrib and plf source to your
  system, then do "urpmi whateverpackage" and let it deal with the
  dependancies. I don't see the difficulty in that. (Yes, you can do
  it with rpmdrake too...just don't ask me how).

  You pay for that software? if so, call the company you buy it from
  and ask them to port. Outside of that...nothing mandrake, the cooker
  people or any linux people can do about it.

Re: [Cooker] Compiling XFree86 from CVS, building a rpm, failsafe boot

It was devfs, I tried to initialize dri, and I guess with no devfs the 
/dev/dri entry was missing:

drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0
drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device)

and that saved me from crashing.

Turns out that the /lib/modules/2.4.19-16mdk/kernel/drivers/char/drm/ 
stuff is part of the kernel rpm, although it is built as part of 
XFree86.   This makes uncoupling X upgrade from kernel version harder, 
at least if drm is used.

Wanting to turn on dri, I compiled the kernel drm modules in XFree86, 
and installed those by hand.   Now I still don't have it working for 
some reason, it still fails with:

(==) RADEON(0): Write-combining range (0xe000,0x400)
(WW) RADEON(0): Cannot read colourmap from VGA.  Will restore with 
default
drmOpenDevice: minor is 0
drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0
drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device)
drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device)
drmOpenDevice: Open failed
drmOpenDevice: minor is 0
drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0
drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device)
drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device)
drmOpenDevice: Open failed
[drm] failed to load kernel module "radeon"
(II) RADEON(0): [drm] drmOpen failed
(EE) RADEON(0): [dri] DRIScreenInit failed.  Disabling DRI.

But now I can at least boot with devfs=mount.
So I don't have 3d acceleration, but everything in 2d seems OK.

Another small problem I have, is that after reboot going to kdm, the 
keyboard is dead, or dies after about 10 keystrokes.   Selecting from 
the KDM menu Restart-X with the mouse cures this - afterwards the 
keyboard works fine without any problems.

Btw. is it so that dri is imported/merged to XFree86 sources on regular 
intervals?  Would I be better of going directly to DRI CVS and building 
from there?

Now it seems I'm rather close at having a working Mandrake 9.0 XFree86 
rpm that groks ATI clones.  Any hints appreciated on what are the 
missing peaces in getting the 3D and the keyboard fully working are 
appreciated.

There was no mention of the authors in the summarry.
But, if you click on get new themes, you have the website.
Sorry, I should have look earlier.


I think that is is important to have theme for mcc, since people would not 
have to "learn" 2 types of icons.
Of course, I may confuse them, if the same configuration icons is at 2 place.
But, far less than having two icon foir the same concept.

I did not read the man page well, i was thinking, for some stupid reason, it 
was the same a --src of urpmi.

Re: [Cooker] Mandrake Made Easy: a modest suggestion for Windowsusers[linux , what sucks ?]

[Jason Greenwood]

I agree 100%. I work in an office that does primarily web design and hosting.
There are Mac Titanium G4's (running OSX) and PC's running Windows. This
is because about 90% of the work is done in Dreamweaver, Freehand, Flash
etc. Until there are viable OSS options (or a Linux port by Adobe and Macromedia,
two of the most arrogant software companies in the world) this is how it
will stay. I myself run ML because I don't use any graphic design software
but if I did, I'd be stuck. At home I dual boot for this very reason...Sad
but true.

[Cooker] kde 3.1 rc3 - ksmserver does not restart kwin on the second desktop - showstopper ?

[Pascal Cavy]

I waited the rc3 to post this bug, still present in rc3.

I have a Maxtrox G550 - so 2 heads with 2 physical screens
I run on latest cooker.
XFree86 is NOT in xinerama mode
I use service dm with kdm as desktopmanager.

The problem: kwin does not start on one head (no window decoration, 
control...) I have to start a second kwin on the second display to be able to 
work.

Here are the steps to reproduce the problem

1. create a fresh unix user (to get rid of kde config migration problems)
2. start service dm
3. at the kdm screen login into kde on the fresh user
4. start one konsole per desktop
AT FIRST START KWIN is started OK on both desktops
5. logout of kde requesting to change to another user
6. redo step 3
   KWIN is now not started on one of the 2 Desktops...
 
here is my .ksmserverrc after the problem:

either the session are not properly saved for both screens concerning kwin or 
kwin should manage both screens ... i don't know.

I will agree hear, they are whining bad enough at having to learn a new word 
prosessor with more features than thier wp8 annyway.  waaa the icons have 
different colors I am lost...
I have obtained libwpd and am working on compiling it on my system and 
integrating it into OO, I will probably also give abiword a try to see jsut 
how well it does.  We are trying to standardize our office suite on OO or SO, 
due to thier being avaliable for a wider variety of operating systems, and 
the free avaliability of OO means our documents are portable to customers 
outside of our office without requiring them to go out and pirate or purchase 
a $400 office suite, like MS or Corel, rather they can simply download OO.  
We have a minidisk buisness card, and on it we include OO for our customers 
convienience.

Thanks for the advice all, I lookforward to in time the improvement of 
Mandrake, and associated apps and thier ability to import and convert WP 
documents into a more open and standard format.

  Seems like the script (troels) was interrupted between the renameing
  of the package and dlding the new one. So...I'm about to kill my

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought nothing was to be built with GCC
2.96 any more but Mozilla (and Galeon etc), which need it for plugin

[Cooker] drakconf-themes missing file, and some suggestion for rpmdrake

[Michael Scherer]

I use drakconf-themes-9.0-6.2mdkplf

drakconf-themes install 2 theme, but kde theme nor gnome theme works.
And crash mcc

It seem that at least one file is missing : 
resolution-mdk.png

In fact, all these file are missing

./resolution-mdk.png
./tv-mdk.png
./webdav-mdk.png
./drakperm-mdk.png
./backup-mdk.png
./web-mdk.png
./postfix-mdk.png
./ftp-mdk.png
./news-mdk.png

I think that mcc should use the default icon if it can't found it in the 
themes directory.


Btw, another problem is I can't see from where urpmi is downloading file.
I didn't found the option to show the media used for urpmi and co.
I know that I can force to use some media, but when i search, let's say gimp, 
I don't know if it come from cooker, or from a mirror, or from a CD.
On mdk8.2, rpmdrake showed the sources, but, it does no more.

I think that rpmdrake should have two modes :
a simple, the same as now in mdk9, and a experienced one, with information 
such as files in the packages, dependencies, changelog and so on.

A simple menu option to switch should be enough.

But now, it is fairly robust : in the betas processes, as my hardware wasn't 
well recognized, i did a minimal install (65Mo), and i could get up to the 
graphical boot after some urpmi (like urpmi gnome, urpmi X, and things like 
this.) like if i had done a normal install.

Actually, I think a whole dist upgrade was not so much "working"
before the 9.0 version of urpmi, or at least partially broken,
that's why.

the problem is with environment variables transmitted or not by

DISPLAY and XAUTHORITY.

i've fixed console-helper because it didn't preserve those

[Cooker] KDE 3.1 RC3 - "Info Center" menu item

[Robert Fox]

I reported this in RC1 - I'm not sure this is a Mandrake specific
problem or a KDE problem.

Since I started using 3.1 (betas and RCs) I have a menu item which says
"Info Center" on the KDE menu.  When I click on it - nothing happens.

It appears to be trying to find an app called "kinfocenter" which
doesn't appear to be on the system or in the RPMS.

Any feedback would be appreciated.

This is another outdated one...for whoever maintains it, 1.4.1 (for
GNOME 1) and 2.0.3 (for GNOME 2) are current versions.

(before someone jumps in with smart comments, I don't have time or

[Cooker] stops at boot

[Per Øyvind Karlsen]

I just updated a machine at work against cooker today and ran into a 
problem when I rebooted, it stopped when it came to 'init', don't know 
what happened,
the machine responded to sysrq and it was able to read from the disk 
etc. so I suspect there must've been something else than hardware troubles.
I tried to booting with init=/bin/sh and it seemed to work fine and then 
I continued with /etc/rc.sysinit and no problems there either,
but it could'nt open /dev/initctl, don't know if it's related though, 
but I had to start every service manually etc.

This might also just be this stupid compaq presario 5676(I _TRULY_ hate 
it), as it had other weird problems before, but then it has usually just 
totally freezed.

[Cooker] stat problem on xfs partition

[Götz Waschk]

Hi,

recently I get more and more problems with my /home xfs partition. du
gives me wrong values for some files. This isn't a problem most of the

[root@abgrund lib]# ls -l libgsteditor.a

If I umount /home and mount it again, the file is OK. xfs_check
doesn't give me errors. I'm not sure, but I guess this started with
kernel-2.4.19-19mdk.

i changed in cooker from 5.8 no thread to 5.8 multi-thread without
adding all the needed dependencies. upgrading from 8.2 to 9.0 or to
cooker should be no pb.

[Cooker] perl dependencies

[Michal 'hramrach' Suchanek]

There was some change in packaging perl
(I think the -4mdk was before change, I have -14mdk, no logs as
urpmi was broken by the change), and this is not recorded in
dependencies of packages that use libperl or perl modules (perl-URPM, 
httpd-perl, vim, etc). The change is incompatible in both ways.

Upgrading httpd-perl and urpmi made them unusable, after perl upgrade
vim was unusable. Upgrading everything at once should be fine.

you can use the custom options and enter the right ports by hand ... if

[Cooker] draksound won't load a new driver for a second soundcard - ML9.0

[Andreas Weiss]

as i couldn't turn off my broken onboard soundchip in BIOS i had to add 
a new second soundcard. harddrake recognised it at once with the right 
driver, but sounddrake didn't show me the new sounddriver for 
configuration. so i had to add it by hand in the /etc/modules.conf like:
...
alias sound-slot-0 snd-emu10k1
above snd-emu10k1 snd-pcm-oss
...

and only after that draksound presented me the drivers for both 
soundcards for configuration.

regards,
andreas

[Cooker] rpmdrake won't work on exported X display's

[Per Øyvind Karlsen]

[hawkeye@mainframe hawkeye]$ sudo rpmdrake
This program cannot be run in console mode.

or when just launching 'rpmdrake' the gtk dialog which asks for root 
password shows up, then it'll bitch again when typed the password...
it worked just fine moments ago with the old 8.2 rpmdrake

Re: [Cooker] ALSA and kernel src.rpm...

Has anyone tried to do this integration labour for alsa-driver-0.9.0rc5?
I tried like Thierry said, but I obtain plenty of errors in "make
modules" stage.

The update does not work. The only way I can get it to work is bij doing a su -c mcc, 
or sudo mcc, or kdesu -c mcc.
