[Cooker] PATCH: 2.4.20-2mdk: fix slow supermount on IDE devices
Danny, one more for your collection :) Should be the really last problem known to me. It fixes ridiculously slow read from IDE devices in some cases. The reason was as usual very simple and is not supermount bug. File read-ahead code never explicitly unplugs device queue after submitting requests. Supermount checks for media change on every operation (except read/write) and query_disk_change blocked until queue was unplugged, i.e. tq_disk was run. This happened either on next non-readahead IO request (not neccessarily for the same device, it explains why supermount appeared to work normally during high disk IO activity) or during next kupdated run that by default happens every 5 seconds. This gives you those 4-5 second delays for every file. The worst case was read-ahead of many files immediately followed by close. In this case every close blocked for several seconds. And this is exactly what happens when you run rpm - it scans all package headers and waits several seconds between each file :) The fix is to ensure that device IO is enabled before we are going to sleep waiting for request. It should not break anything as far as I can tell, SCSI layer does the same (so SCSI devices should not suffer from this problem at all). Arguably this should happen in file read-ahead code and comments there even suggest that it was intended but I do not feel myself confident enough to touch the very heart of IO subsystem. cheers -andrey 2.4.20-2mdk.slow-supermount-on-IDE.patch Description: Binary data
[Cooker] PATCH: 2.4.20-2mdk: fix file_readahead for ide-cd and ide-floppy
The file_readahead setting in ide-cd and ide-floppy obviously assumed read-ahead values are kept as bytes. This made them totally useless. This patch unifies file_readahead with ide-disk making values be stored correctly as pages and displayed as KB. This also changes breada setting to match ide-disk as well (is it really used at all? It appears the only place where it is referenced is reiserfs). cheers -andrey 2.4.20-2mdk.file_readahead-ide-cd-ide-floppy.patch Description: Binary data

Re: [Cooker] Prepare for the onslaught.
Anyway, how does debian handle this mess? (I'm asking because debian users usually brag about how they only need to install once) Right, this, and how it is easy to type apt-get install foobar ;-) First, since Debian has more expert users than Mandrake, they are able to handle the problem, and they give good bug reports, with precise description, patch and so on. I don't say that people are not competent, but, there is more developer ( ~ 900 packagers ) than here. Mandrake cannot do much about this. The secund is that each default configuration option is in the configuration files. For exemple, with /etc/ssh/sshd_config , instead of putting #PasswordAuthentication yes, because this is the default, they put PasswordAuthentication yes ( notice the # is not here ). This way, they don't need to touch to the config file. If a new package change the default option, it still will have the same config, and so, still behave the same. There should be a lot of similars rules and some other magic, and all of them are on the website, and I think that Mandrake should do the same ( a QA chart, with very precise guideline for packaging . Maybe a wiki ? ). Last idea, a /etc in CVS ? With a drakconf module to restore configuration ? Mick

Well, the options are: (1) DSA and ElGamal (default) (2) DSA (sign only) (4) ElGamal (sign and encrypt) (5) RSA (sign only) So I chose 1 anyways. gnupg then asked me for the desired keylength. 1024 is the default, so I hit return. gnupg then asked me how long the key should be valid. 0 (key does not expire) is the default, so I hit return. - enter your Firstname+Name+email address @linux-mandrake.com (for example: if your name is John Smith and your email address is [EMAIL PROTECTED], then enter: John Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED]) Hmm, I don't have an @linux-mandrake.com email address.

But critical process information is either split between the Mandrake RPM HOWTO, web pages, the club-volunteers FAQ, and occasional messages on the cooker list, or it's a little out of date. Any chance that we could update the Mandrake RPM HOWTO and move the RPM signing information into a chapter of the HOWTO?

Re: [Cooker] Latest XFree86 w/Radeon and hardware accellerationrebootssystem.
Well I have a Radeon 7000 that works with neither 8.2 or 9.0 unless accelleration is somehow disabled. It works flawlessly with Red Hat 8.0 though. There is simply some problem lurking in Mandrake that trashes these early Radeon cards. I originally suspected it was in the glx libraries but I have lately been hearing that it was a kernel 'drm' module. All I really know is that it fails badly, even when accelleration is not in use.

Maybe things changed since then but i am not sure of the safeness of this code for all network cards. Well, someone's got to try it, so we might as well try and collect the evidence, and if it works for a significant number (specifically laptop cards) then it may be worth spending more effort on.

mails he reads (or at least replies to). And sometimes this leads to patches
being forgotten/not applied.
I think he knows the andreys patches fix it and guess he will eventually apply
them. It is only frustrating that he doesn't reply, so you are left in
eternal doubt on whether to keep harrassing him with mails or just wait and
pray.
Or alternatively, you can try to cc (read: annoy) other mdk people who tend to

[Cooker] Mdk9.1b1 as update on 9.0
Hello all, As the title states, I updated an old 9.0 partition with 9.1b1. Overall the impression is good running it. All the hardware works as it did before and even supermount works OK. I had to enable supermount on the command line though to get it to work. Is it disabled by default? What I did find puzzling is that I could log in as root but not as any of the existing users..the passwords weren't accepted. After 'changing' them back to what they were in userdrake solved that. What I do find very irritating is that when you're in MCC and you click on something there's no indication whatsoever something's happening. It's a fairly trying experience especially for the impatient. For first time users it could be disaster i.e. shove them back to other distribs or OS's. Another thing: I personally don't like the default desktop it has too much of an XP look to it. OK so tastes differ but there should be more eye-candy there IMHO. HarM

Hi.
I have tampered some more with php. If for some reason a installed module is
faulty, we get the error below in %install. The fix plus some other fixes are
applied to this mail. I have rebuilt all php stuff on my ML9.0 WS at home and
it seems to work ok (except php-recode?), the packages can be found here:

Also please do try this funny script (with php-cpdf):

I would love to work with somebody to get this fixed, but I am stuck with a 56K modem and getting the ISOs is a major hassle. If somebody can get me a copy of the ISO (I am in California), I am willing to do my best. I have plenty of removable hard drives so loading it would not be a problem. - George Buchan Milne wrote: On Sun, 12 Jan 2003, George Mitchell wrote: Well I have a Radeon 7000 that works with neither 8.2 or 9.0 unless accelleration is somehow disabled. It works flawlessly with Red Hat 8.0 though. There is simply some problem lurking in Mandrake that trashes these early Radeon cards. I originally suspected it was in the glx libraries but I have lately been hearing that it was a kernel 'drm' module. All I really know is that it fails badly, even when accelleration is not in use. Are you planning on testing 9.1 beta on it? I don't have too much time available, and would appreciate it if someone took this up and ensured that at least there are valid bugzilla entries for cards that failed on 8.2 and 9.0 before we hit RCs, then I can spend time doing other stuff (packaging etc).

[Cooker] 9.1 Beta 1.
On the assumption that the 9.1 beta 1 iso was created from the current cooker, I tried to install that cooker as expert, without any joy, as you will see. 1. The first thing I noticed was that it complained about all the RPMs for languages other than English were missing. That is because our mandrake downloader (see sig) deliberately does not download them. The important question for Mandrakr is why on earth the installer has been altered to now require language RPMs that are not relevant to the user's language choice? It never did before. Kindly remove this 'feature' from the installer ASAP. For English users the affected RPMs are: ispell locales (all except -en) fonts-ttf-gb2312 -big5 -japanese -korean -greek -thai -armenian -tseii OpenOffice.org-l10-ca -fr XFree86-Cryllic-fonts fonts-hebrew-elmar howto-html-de -fr mandrake-doc-fr -it -de -es -zh koffice-I18n=de -fr kde-I18n-de -fr linuxconf-lang-de -fr man-pages-de -cs -hu -fr -pl -ja -ru -id -ko -es tapei-fonts rxvt-CJK 2.

Re: [Cooker] VIA VT8233 AC97 controller soundcard is not working in MDK9.1 beta1Confirmed BUG
Hi, After editing manually the /etc/mdoules.conf i can get sound working. I'd like to confirm that this is a bug in MDK9.1 beta1. The entry snd-via82xx is the correct entry. But Mandrake tools(not sure which tool!!)makes this entry as snd-via8233. Once i manually change this sound works. In addition to myself the following people have confirmed the bug in /etc/modules.conf. Linux Autrement [EMAIL PROTECTED] Marcel Pol [EMAIL PROTECTED] I think that this is caused by changes in the alsa driver mdoule name. During MDK9.0, this worked because at that time Alsa had seperate modules for snd-via8233 and snd-via82xx. I request someone from Mandrakesoft to confirm that this bug is noted, and is fixed or something like that. I cannot submit tobugzilla as i'm still getting the message bugzilla is broken. Thanks to everyone for testing this and confirming this problem in /etc/module entry. Cheers., Prabu PS:Yes modprobe snd-via82xx worked. Thanks. I'm listening to sound in xmms now.

[Cooker] Installation - swap partition now a requirement
Hello, I decided to do a clean install of 9.1b1 and have discovered that a swap partition is now a requirement even if you do an expert install. Could the installer be made to ignore the presence of a swap partition during an expert installation as it was before? I'd hate to have the installer push me off mandrake linux :P -Elliott

Yea, don't think i've ever used swap on a 1GB ram system. Basically, I try to avoid using swap at all costs. I even hate how the kernel uses up the remaining about of ram on this laptop that has 512MB ram and uses it as cache.
