[Cooker] How to change new drakconf's fonts?

2003-01-07 Thread utuhiro
I think new drakconf uses TrueType fonts, but
they can't show non-alphabet words.
See these snapshots:
[drakconf without xft]
http://www.geocities.jp/knee2525/images/drakconf-xft-off.html
[drakconf with xft (add "export GDK_USE_XFT=1" to .bashrc)]
http://www.geocities.jp/knee2525/images/drakconf-xft-on.html

I can't read any japanese words, so I did #gnome-font-properties and
KDE Control Center>font config,  but they couldn't change drakconf's fonts.
I want to know how to change them.
Thanks.

Excellent!   I've got a couple of boxes that are not configured with

[Cooker] CUPS `raw' printer Q not really raw

2003-01-07 Thread Leon Brooks
If you print, say, some Espon-ish dotmatrix text with a few embedded 
`Condensed Enable/Disable' commands the MIME type of your file goes from 
ASCII-with-Escapes or PCL to `data' and CUPS throws it in the bin instead of 
printing it. By uncommenting two lines in the /etc/cups/mime.* and restarting 
CUPS, you get _really_ raw output.

It would be nice if there were some on-the-spot notice of this misbehaviour 
somewhere; CUPS (any recent version shipped with Cooker or 9.0) itself 
doesn't sem to have any. I can see why it is done (stops gonzos from printing 
program files, for example) but it was a bit of a bastard to debug, hardly 
mentioned on the Web anywhere.

Perhaps Mandrake could push a suggestion up to the maintainer that they also 
offer (at the user-sees-on-menu level) a `bleeding' mode which is `really, 
really' raw.

Cheers; Leon

This is normal.  This is the buildroot directory.  It's where RPM gets
the files to put into the package.

These lines are executed at install-time, not compile time.

ln -s is not causing the failure.  The failure is caused by said
symbolic link already existing.  Which is why Todd and I both had the
initial question: are you 100% sure your buildroot was empty?

Again leads me to believe that the symlink was leftover from that build.

They will get seen.  But it's always possible that nobody will have time

Do this:
# rm -fr /var/tmp/*root
# rm -fr /usr/src/RPM/BUILD/*
# rm -fr /usr/src/RPM/tmp/*
before you try to build anything, and you won't have any problems like
this.

Yes, absolutely sure. I hand cleaned /usr/src/RPM and /var/tmp

To build athlon-mp centric .rpm's here is my /etc/rpmrc file:

optflags: athlon -O3 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -march=athlon-mp -ffast-math 
-fno-strength-reduce
buildarchtranslate: athlon: athlon
buildarchtranslate: i686: athlon

It turns out to be necessary to build the compiler (at least gcc-3.2-4)
so that MPlyayer will  properly compile.  Otherwise you end up
with compiler errors on the embedded assembler w/in MPlayer.

I'm now starting the build I memtioned in the previous message.
Will see what happens in the morning.

Austin, be sure to read the (long, involved) message I just
wrote to Todd L. on cooker about this.

In fact (as I said in that message) the bug was originally tickled
when I built for the athlon-mp (modifed /etc/rpmrc file) but
I deleted that file on a second attempt to remove one variable
and the build still bombed out.

See that message for the two other differences between the
"good" and the "bad" system.

Now that I "fixed" the problem (see message on how) I will build again
tonight to see if the build goes through.

Problem is that I know nothing at all about "update-alternatives"
which seems to be the fundamental cause of the problem.
For some reason it is creating the error-causing link on one machine
and not in the other.

No it is getting created during the build.  I discovered, also,
that after the build bomb-out one finds in

/var/tmp/gcc-3.2.1-root/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i586-mandrake-linux-gnu/3.2.1/include/

a `root/' directory in which there is both a usr/ subdir and an etc/
subdir.  In the etc/ subdir there's an empty alternatives/ subdir.

They are also present in the BUILD/gcc-3.2.1/blah-blah diretory in /usr/src/RPM
and are created during build.  (Sorry I don't remember exactly the path.)

On my PIII laptop  the link I mentioned in the
first message and the above subdirs don't exist
and hence the bomb-out never occurs.

 :: 2) Does the link get made by some earlier invocation of
 :: update-alternatives?

I don't understand update-alternatives at all except from what little
I read in the man page.  In trying to trace the error I think I
found a possible source in the .spec file but I really don't
understand it enough to say for sure.

The lines I suspected of creating the alternative stuff
were:

%if %{build_java}
%post -n libgcj%{libjava_major}-devel
update-alternatives --install %{_includedir}/libgcj libgcj 
%{_includedir}/libgcj-%{version} %{gcj_alternative_priority}
%endif

in the .spec file.  But again I really don't understand what
"update-alternatives" does or why these lines would be triggered on one
machine and not other (but see differences between machines below).

 :: 3) Can you ascertain exactly where it gets created?

No.  I'm too ignorant of the process.  

 :: 4) Does it do the same thing if you do everything by hand?

Didn't try, but I seriously doublt it because the .spec file
contains the explicit `ln -s' commands that cause the failure.
And, as I said, I believe the offensive "alternatives" stuff is called
from the .spec file also.

I did discover two differences between the system on which it
builds and the one on which it does not.

The working system had a stock Mdk 9.0 installation of gcc-3.2-1mdk.i586.rpm.

The non-working system had a re-build of the cooker gcc-3.2 from
around Nov 25th. built for an athlon-mp. (This was necessary to
get MPlayer to compile).
It's rpm was gcc-3.2-4mdk.athlon.rpm

The second difference was that on the working system only

libgcj3-3.2-1mdk.i586.rpm
libgcj3-devel-3.2-1mdk.i586.rpm

were present.

On the non-working  system

libgcj3-3.2-4mdk.athlon.rpm
libgcj3-devel-3.2-4mdk.athlon.rpm
libgcj3-static-devel-3.2-4mdk.athlon.rpm

were present.

I did "solve" the problem by deleting the link and root/etc/ directories
deep down in the /usr/src/RPM/BUILD/gcc-3.2.1 (again, sorry
for not remembering exactly where)
and then issuing

rpm --short-circuit -bi gcc.spec

It then correctly did the "install" in /var/tmp/gcc-3.2.1-root
and built .rpm's.

The astute reader will now be wondering why, when I reported
the error the messages refer to `i586-mandrake-linux-gnu'
whereas the above installed .rpm's have "athlon" in their name
(so that the messages should have had `athlon-mandrake-linux-gnu'
in them.

It is because when I first started to get the error, in order
to simplify things, I got rid of my /etc/rpmrc which builds
for athlon-mp.  This did not get rid of the build bomb-out so
I reported errors relative to a vanilla i586 build (on my athlon) to
avoid someone saying "It must be your /etc/rpmrc file".

After I discovered how to make it work (with user intervention) I put
the /etc/rpmrc file back and re-built for athlon.

Ext2resize has some fancy Mandrake-specific adjustment that needs to be

First, I don't have a problem. I know how to find the correct missing
packages and upgrade.

Secondly, I think an attitude like this defeats the purpose of an open
source operating system. What I mean is this: yes, I agree it's too much
work trying to make sure all dependencies for previous versions are
correct (although I don't believe keeping track of dependencies from 9.0
to 9.1 cooker is too much). However, when such dependencies are actually
discovered, they should be fixed, not discarded with the excuse of this
being a beta distribution. I don't think it takes that much work to update
an RPM's dependencies. Otherwise there's no point having people out
there test the packages put in the cooker: you might as well close the
cooker list and do everything behind closed doors.

My beef wasn't with the fact that not every dependency is being tracked. I
know it takes time, money and resources to do that. I just don't like
attitudes that sort of defeat the purpose of having a Cooker distribution
and an associated mailing list available to the public.

[Cooker] ext2resize, aumix

2003-01-07 Thread Crispin Boylan
Hi

extresize is a little out of date, version in cooker is 1.1.14 - current 
is 1.1.17, it fixes a few bugs (probably good for a parition resizer?)

also aumix is 2.7 in cooker, 2.8 latest, 2.7 is over 2 years old, 2.8 
was released in november.

oh yeh and xchat latest is 1.8.11, current in cooker is 1.8.10

Re: [Cooker] Is this the place to post cooker bugs?

2003-01-07 Thread Austin Acton
Seems hard to believe that error.
If you're just doing
rpm -ba
it won't make ANY difference what processor you're using.  It will build
for i586 (unless you have altered the .rpmrc file).  In fact, from your
post, it looks like you were building i586-mandrake-linux-gnu.  So the
error shouldn't be caused by building on an athlon.  And if it works on
you other system, it makes me think that your dual athlon has a dirty
build environment or something.

However, I have a dual athlon and I will try to reproduce the problem
right now.

Can you isolate
1) Does the link already exist in some tarball (almost certaily no).
2) Does the link get made by some earlier invocation of
update-alternatives?
3) Can you ascertain exactly where it gets created?
4) Does it do the same thing if you do everything by hand?

[Cooker] Is this the place to post cooker bugs?

2003-01-07 Thread Dean S. Messing

I posted a (possible) cooker bug here yesterday.
The bug appears in the build process for gcc-3.2.1
on my athlon machine.

It's entitled:

[Cooker] Bug in gcc-3.2.1 .src.rpm build

and can be found here:

http://www.mandrakelinux.com/en/archives/cooker/2003-01/msg00286.php

I have seen no remarks, acknowledgement of receipt, questions, or
statements to effect that I'm an idiotic doofus and the "bug" is all
my fault.

Is anyone listing?  Did I commit some cooker social faux pax by posting
bugs here?


Dean


P.S. In another message I also asked about why I can't
digestify this list.  My mbox is getting swamped with individual
cooker message which I would dearly love to have in  digest form
but sympa tells me that "SET cooker DIGEST" is not an allowed commend
for this list.

Can anyone tell me why?

Thanks.

Starcraft installed fine, it was when I figured out how to launch
automagically in a seperate X with the proper resolution that caused an
end to any productive work.

I had half-life working fine quite a while ago, once I resolved a colour

there is two separate things.
one is order of entries in /etc/hosts file.

there is imho authoritative BSD man pages, where we can see:
cite from man 5 hosts:
 The hosts file contains information regarding the known hosts on the net-
 work.  For each host a single line should be present with the following
 information:

   Internet address
   official host name
   aliases

this is from FreeBSD man page.

similar we can see in NetBSD hosts man page:
  For each host a single line should be present with the following informa-
  tion:
address hostname [alias ...]
  These are:
address   Internet address
hostname  Official host name
alias Alias host name

and, off course in man pages which is included in mandrake:
For each host a single line should be present with the following information:

  IP_address canonical_hostname aliases

there is crystal clear how we wrote any /etc/hosts entries. but we will see, that
we don't know what is proper canonical (official) hostname for localhost.

> I haven't looked at the RFCs, but I suspect localhost.localdomain only
> came into existence with RH, and 'localdomain' is the correct FQDN for
> 127.0.0.1

yes, this is second thing, which is important in this issue. if i search in
rfc's right, there is no strictly defined, what is canonical name for
localhost. but we can inspired with RFC1912, where is described common
configuration errors related do DNS system. there are not one note that
localhost is cannonical name. i mean this line:
localhost.  IN  A   127.0.0.1

in this documment is no allusion about localdomain, and
localhost.localdomain hostnames, or domains..

if i can imagine what solution would be right, i mean that right record
for loopback address can be like this:
127.0.0.1   localhost
127.0.0.1   localhost.localdomain

i know, this is duplicity, but second entry is maybe needed for another
application for compatibility?? and it works with 'getent' right.

if we inspired with NetBSD, there is only first line, without
localdomain..

if developers can change hosts file, there is possible right time to add
IPV6 adress of loopback too:
::1 localhost

Yes.
1-3 pkgs will install and then it locks up.

I am doing a build now without the post script.
I'll run gst-register once after all pkgs are installed and report the

You are kidding, starcraft was one of the first game to be playable with wine.

I remember to be able to launch it 2 years ago ( not to play, need too much 
cpu power :(  ).
Ok, I always used with a real windows setup, but, there is no problem i  
think.
You have no excuse to be useful during work time instead of wasting time in

Not really bug report, Sly (I think) fixed swat. It went like this.
Defuault /etc/xinetd.d/swat had:

only_from = localhost

If it was enabled, and the user tried to go to http://localhost:901 on
the same machine, swat would not be accessible. Change hosts file to have
127.0.0.1   localhost

and it works, but Sly worked around by changing only_from to 127.0.0.1,
and hopefully the menu entry too.

It's not too important to me, since I don't like swat, but I don't think
it's limited to swat, as xinetd is doing it ?

When you do 'make install' in the kernel source tree, the scripts that
are called will generate an initrd to match the kernel you're
installing.  

'man mkinitrd' for info on how to do it manually.  

'grep initrd /sbin/installkernel' will lead you to
/usr/share/loader/make-initrd which has a little intelligence about what
it's doing.

It should work, but there is a difference between NDS-resolved and
hosts-resloved (google isn't in my hosts, but ranger.dnsalias.com is):
[bgmilne@bgmilne bgmilne]$ getent hosts localhost
127.0.0.1   localhost.localdomain localhost
[bgmilne@bgmilne bgmilne]$ grep localhost /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1   localhost.localdomain localhost
[bgmilne@bgmilne bgmilne]$ getent hosts www.google.com
216.239.33.100  www.google.com
[bgmilne@bgmilne bgmilne]$ getent hosts ranger
146.232.174.2   ranger.dnsalias.com ranger
[bgmilne@bgmilne bgmilne]$ grep ranger /etc/hosts
146.232.174.2   ranger.dnsalias.com ranger

But the question is what do the RFCs say? I think the FQDN for 127.0.0.1
was supposed to be localhost, nothing more, nothing less (but I could be
wrong ;-))

And xinetd ... which is really the bigger problem.

AFAIK, localhost.localdomain isn't required by any RFC (would have to
check), but localhost is. But, it's probably possible to ensure that (if
 not resolving localhost with the current default hosts file) that it
works with both by having this instead:

127.0.0.1   localhost
127.0.0.1   localhost.localdomain

Anyone know more definitively?

It depends.. if you're using heavy perl software, like Apache::ASP or
HTML::Embperl, or if you're using obscure external modules, you'll bang
your head.

If your usage is typical Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP, it will be a smooth
ride.

Would yo like to enlighten us how (or should we check the usual
suspects) so that we can also play instead of working ?

I was quiet because I was moving =) My new location is 200 km away from
here, and with the holidays and such, it was impossible to get a truck
to get my stuff, and it took forever to get my DSL access.

I have been also very busy with compiling Apache 1.3.27 with

Granted I can do that, but the point I'm trying to make is that this
unresolved dependency has nothing to do with any of the packages I am
updating. 

It just makes sense to me to only worry about things that affect the
action you are trying to perform. urpmi doing a 'system check' to make
sure the whole world is in order not only has this nasty side effect,
but it also probably slows urpmi down.

That's just the thing. It used to not care about unrelated dependencies.
But now it does and it says that it must uninstall SuperFoo in order to
continue. 

If I select Yes it allows my 'urpmi --auto-select' to continue and in
fact it *does not* actually uninstall SuperFoo. I started this thread 
because this indicates to me that in the future urpmi will uninstall it,
and that it doesn't currently uninstall it is merely a bug or an
uncompleted feature. 

urpmi seems to be becoming like apt. I tried out apt4rpm once for
giggles when I was running RH8 for a while. It wouldn't let me install
any software at all because I had this unresolved dependency that was
totally unrelated to anything I was installing (it was complaining about
the JDK even though nothing I installed used Java).

So apt4rpm was completely useless to me and was half the reason I
returned to Cooker.

[Cooker] localhost.localdomain in /etc/hosts is broken?

2003-01-07 Thread Buchan Milne
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

I have seen a number of errors that could be due to the bug (probably
inherited from RH) as described here.

The issue affects recent xinetd (specifically, swat, where we now
suggest the use of only_from=127.0.0.1 instead of only_from = localhost)
since resolving localhost does not work in recent versions of xinetd.

http://www.speechio.org/speechio.faq.html

This seems correct according to the hosts (5), as such :

127.0.0.1   localhost.localdomain   localhost
(as it is currently by default) is incorrect,

127.0.0.1   localhost
is correct, and
127.0.0.1   localhost   localhost.localdomain
is acceptable.

I haven't looked at the RFCs, but I suspect localhost.localdomain only
came into existence with RH, and 'localdomain' is the correct FQDN for
127.0.0.1

Can someone fix this (if my assessment is correct)?

Regards,
Buchan

You can use the same with rpmdrake.

For goodness sake, use rsync. rsync is everything that ftp always

Run rsync repeatedly untill nothing further is downloaded - at that

[Cooker] apple-keyboard XFree 4.2.99.3

2003-01-07 Thread Marco Rothley
Hello!

I have a (minor) problem with my keyboard since I installed the new XFree 
packages. I have a apple usb-keyboard. Some keys are missing on this keyboard 
so I used xmodmap to change the mapping. One big problem is that the keyboard 
doesn't have an AltGr (on german keyboards it's AltGr, I don't know if this 
is the same in other countries) key. But I need that key for many characters 
like '@' and '{', ... (on German keyboards '@' is AltGr + q, etc.). So I have 
the following in my Xmodmap:
keycode 116 = Mode_switch

That way I can use my right apple-key (keycode 116) as a AltGr key and have my 
Mode_switch again. But since the I have XFree 4.2.99 installed this doesn't 
work anymore. Some other mappings like the Delete-key is still working fine.
Is there a change in XFree so I can't use the Mode_switch anymore? Under 
Windows the AltGr key is simulated with pressing Ctrl and Alt simultaniously. 
But this isn't working on Linux.

My XFree packages are:

XFree86-doc-4.2.99.3-1.20021223.3mdk
XFree86-server-4.2.99.3-1.20021223.3mdk
XFree86-4.2.99.3-1.20021223.3mdk
XFree86-libs-4.2.99.3-1.20021223.3mdk
XFree86-compat-libs-4.1.0-2mdk
XFree86-devel-4.2.99.3-1.20021223.3mdk
XFree86-100dpi-fonts-4.2.99.3-1.20021223.3mdk

XFree86-Xnest-4.2.99.3-1.20021223.3mdk
XFree86-cyrillic-fonts-4.2.99.3-1.20021223.3mdk
XFree86-xfs-4.2.99.3-1.20021223.3mdk

Thanks for any hints/suggestions. I'm now using a standard PC-keyboard so the 
topic isn't very imported for me right now but I think that it could be a 
bigger problem for some others who won't to use Mode_switch.
I also heard about a different (newer) way to do those mappings without 
Xmodmap. How does that work? Any links to howTos?

Marco.

The fix is to install Apache 2 ;-)

ODEN: Yeah!

Do you have a reason not to install it?

In a couple of days from now, Apache 1.3 will be moved to the contribs,
and Apache 2.0 will go in Cooker, and after that in the 9.1 release.

Yeah, I almost did it, but I wasn't sure, since I'm used
to the Windows 2000/XP way wich needs a special
oemsetup.inf on the disk, to tell the system what to do...

Or like the 'patch' boot command wich need to find
patch.pl on the floppy root, so I didn't belive it could
be that simple...

Oh well, that just proves it again...

Linux is the future, but it's already here ;-) ...

[Cooker] [Bug 730] [XFree86] Savage driver does not work

--- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2003-01-07 16:45 ---
I've been running with Option "ForceInit" for the last few days. So far it seems
okay, except when xscreensaver kicks in for a while. It doesn't happen right
away though. I think the screen has to shut off for a while before it happens.

The screen corruption is basically the desktop magnified by 2, then highly
pixelated. So the center of my desktop is basically towards the bottom
right-hand corner of my screen.

Luckily, I can switch to another virtual terminal, then back to X and it will
fix itself. Sounds like things aren't getting fully re-initialized when the
screen wakes up.

The Savage driver will partially load, but the mouse becomes dreadfully slow and
GNOME cannot fully load (i.e. the panel never even shows up). It basically gets
to the point where it feels almost locked up. Sawfish doesn't get any further.
Window Maker will load but there are lots of screen artifacts and you can't even
see what you are typing in an xterm. Eventually it gets to that semi-locked up
state.

Switching to the 'vesa' driver is a temporary work-around.

We can't nuke Apache 1, because a lot of people depend on it. For
example, it's needed by Kylix from Borland, and the mod_perl support for
2.0 is really bad, so you can't run Apache::ASP or HTML-Embperl, which
some corporate clients are using.

But I agree that 2.0 should be in the main distro now.

I am finishing the last touches on a solution so that we can put both
1.3 and 2.0 in the main distrib, so that the two versions cohabit

Do you have a specific reason to stay with Apache 1.3?

The 1.3 series will move to the Contribs in a couple of days, and the
2.0 will be in Cooker, and in Mandrake 9.1.

[Cooker] Expert install and third-party kernel modules ...

2003-01-07 Thread Thomas Backlund
When installing Cooker using expert mode,
you get to a point where the installer ask you:
 
If you want to insert third-party kernel modules,
insert a Linux (ext2fs) formatted floppy

Does any info exist about how this disk should be 
made ...?

Can I just copy the *.o files I need to the floppy,
or should they be in a /lib/modules/ tree, or what...

Google and Cooker ML-archive didn't help, so...

The reason for this is that I have nforce2 based
board (ASUS A7N8X Deluxe) that has many parts
that is not recognized during installation... (network, chpset, ...)

I know that I can install the system first, and then use the
srpms from nvidia after that to get the support, but it would
be nice to have at install time...

MDK 9.0 Installed fine on the system, even if not every part was
recognized, but... (I haven't tested it much yet since I did the install
last night...)


As for Cooker, I'm installing it right now...

It works a bit better, meaning it print more pages at once, but still not 
everything at once.

Also tested on a mdk 8.2 with cups 1.1.10: same results.

Curiously, when looking at page.log, the 70 pages i want to print are present, 
as if the server successfully sent them and the printer silently dropped 
them. It has 8Mo memory only, while smallest setting in driver is 8-11. Maybe 
does the problem come from there ?

BTW, should not the original PPPD alway be preferred over foomatic-generated 
one (when available of course) ?

Run 16bit (works on my 600X running 9.0) instead of 24bit (which also
gave the same lines for me).

Btw, if you want to fax with the LTmodem, you need efax-0.9a, I have an
RPM for 9.0 and put one into incoming.

Is it worthwhile packaging tpctl and apmiser (which could be useful for
thinkpad owners).

And while I am at it, http://www.flyn.org/ChangeLog/ChangeLog.pam_mount

release (according to fm 0.5.9 was 15 Dec 2002, last Changelog entry was
13 Dec 2002). But I mailed the author yesterday and will take it up with
him ...

And fm also lists 0.5.9 as current ...

And I think 0.5.9 was actually current when I built it :-(.

Anyway, biggest reason to upgrade was it was on the rebuild list the bot
sent me ... I have some more that need to be rebuilt (but maybe wait for
 grass-5.0.1 which is out soon since it's a big package to upgrade twice
in a week), and will do 0.5.10 then.

Not really.
1/ Get the source rpm from the RPMS repository, not the src.rpm from SRPMS,

3/ Before make *config run make mrproper. but this might have been done
automatically.
   If you want to use the .config included, copy it temporarily elsewhere,

6/ There is no 6. 
Make install should have made an initrd image and updated your bootloader
(lilo, grub).

easier job for me.

historically, man-pages-fr had been "ldp translated pages" + "other
packages translated pages".

it was then splitted between the classic ldp package and a new project
that translate everything else.

i've merged them all back in man-pages-fr package so that it has the
same content as the plain old version.

Ok, I hope I will not hurt sensibility but urpmi doesn't care if
unrelated dependencies are unresolved. *BUT* urpmi when resolving
related dependencies (and related should be understanded in the very
large part) it may add unresolved dependencies.

 I actually like to think that urpmi getting old unresolved deps
 flagged is A Good Thing(tm). If you don't care for deps, don't use a
 package *manager*.



I must say I disagree here. He surely do care for deps and that --justdb
trick is just like installing a tarball on an rpm system.

Leaving the SuperFoo in the rpm database allows to keep track of the
installed files and remove them easily.

There should be a way to tell urpmi to ignore a certain list of rpm and
only deal with what it knows, i.e. what is in the hdlist.


Does putting the rpm name in /etc/urpmi/skip.list stop the attempted 
removal? It stops upgrading to packages (such as ignore apache2, I want 
to stick with apache thanks).

If not, perhaps a /etc/urpmi/noremove.list?
