[Cooker] VMWare /usr/src/linux/include for 9.1
Hello All, I've asked this on two other lists, but as I am in desperate need (must get it working tonight) I'll ask here too. I'm trying to install VMWare into 9.1 and am having trouble finding the correct directory. Where is the directory for the header files?

If the user did not know this, and gets a different name as hostname to what was assigned to them, then we have the hostname lookup problem again.

We are talking pre configuration out of the box. brand new not aware of the world not 5 hours after and everything is set up. But you are complaining about the wrong issue. The hostname should *not* be set to localhost.localdomain. If it has not been configured by the user it should be localhost. Hardcoding is the wrong approach, since it *will* result in it breaking again some time. What needs to be done is that if `hostname` does not resolve, then 127.0.0.1 `hostname` should be added to /etc/hosts This would solve it in all possible cases (but could take a few seconds to test). But what happens if the user changes their hostname? Should the entry be removed? Criminy if I didn't know how to set the systems up I wouldn't have known what the problem is. How hard is it to understand that all that is needed is the default config of /etc/hosts to be 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost Because that is wrong.

Hi! Seeing a lot of people with problems with the above, I wonder if there is any documentation. There should be a documantation what all the apps are doing and how they are thought to do things and what are the future goals. Further I don't see 3 apps for the same thing, there should be one app draknetwork, that should be aware of all this and the goals of that tool should be well defined and also how the would be reached. This needs to be discussed and then be implemented. I see this is not something for the upcoming release but should be kept in mind for future releases. Things I see what are needed: - documentation (too many questions about how all this should work) - a common dialup framework (the needs of a lot of dial up users are pretty much the same, the common use of that should be taken in account. Starting a dialup-connection only as root is not acceptable. Maybe SuSE and kinternet can give an idea how it should be done). - a discussion about the needs and how to integrate them all. I may have not enough insight in all this but maybe I'm in parts right with what I said. -- Regards Steffen counter.li.org : #296567. machine: 181800 vdr-box : 87 Please dont CC me, since if I have replied I'll watch the tread.

[Cooker] APM suspend on desktop Athlon
Hi, I've been trying to get APM working on my desktop machine (an Athlon 600 with Via KX133 chipset, EPoX 7KXA motherboard) with the RC1 kernel. The last time I remember this worked properly was around kernel 2.4.7. With the tweaking to the wakeup events and APM settings I've done, I've only managed to reach two situations: 1) machine suspends but wakes up again immedeately 2) machine suspends but never wakes up again until manual reset neither of which is desirable behaviour ;). Does anybody know if there are 'right' settings to get this to work or is it the kernels' fault? regards, -- Reinout van SchouwenArtificial Intelligence student email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]mobile phone: +31-6-44360778 GPG public key http://www.cs.vu.nl/~reinout/reinout.asc MandrakeClub member

If the user did not know this, and gets a different name as hostname to what was assigned to them, then we have the hostname lookup problem again.

I have all updates applied. I also have supermount and scsi-emulation enabled. I have two CD drives (hdc and hdd). The ejection problem is with /dev/cdrom1 (/dev/hdd). Here are the steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Put a CD in the drive and close the tray by pressing the CD eject button (the hardware button present on the drive). 2. Press the eject button and the CD is ejected normally 3. Close the CD tray again. 4. Run a command to read /dev/cdrom1 as: cat /dev/cdrom1 5. a) Now press the CD eject button. Nothing happens. b) If I use eject /dev/cdrom1, the CD is ejected fine. 6. a) If I skip step 5b and run ls /mnt/cdrom2 (/dev/cdrom1 is mounted on /mnt/cdrom2), then the CD files are listed just fine. b) After step 6a, if I press the CD eject button, it ejects normally. This strange behavior is 100% reproducible. It seems that every time the cat command is used, it prevents a manual hardware ejection of the CD. After cat, using another read command (like ls) that reads from the device, sets things right. Further investigation revealed that if I manually umount /mnt/cdrom2 then this problem disappears. If I manually re-mount /mnt/cdrom2, the problem reappears. Obviously, supermount is not handling it correctly since it is related to mounting. No error messages in dmesg or /var/log/* can be found that explains this odd behavior.

I do know that /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 did not have an entry for DHCP_HOSTNAME until I ran drakconnect post-install. Perhaps this is because it never ran during install because I did a network install. But if drakconnect did not run during install because the network was already configured, that means the installer is not configuring the network properly when network.img is used. That is the case, and needs to be fixed ... when doing network installs, we actually do reset DHCP_HOSTNAME (or on 9.0 we ran drakconnect again) post-install. The installer should really give an option to reset configuration at the end IMHO ... assigned by dhcp, then dns entries get added (DDNS). If the user did not know this, and gets a different name as hostname to what was assigned to them, then we have the hostname lookup problem again. Well, I would think that an admin on a corporate network that has dhcp set up is not going to want to fight with this, they would accept the default. What about the people on home network's that are the one's that will really care about this. Joe User, who really wants to name his computer after a famous jazz musician. How can you accomodate both sets of users? tmdns should really handle this case AFAIK. Otherwise some test with $ host `hostname` |(test for good answer) || echo -e 127.0.0.1\t\t `hostname` /etc/hosts in initscripts. Here is what I am going to do to help the situation. I can't do it today, but I should have time to do about 5 installs this weekend using various scenarios of dhcp, non-dhcp, network vs. cd install. I will update Cooker tonight and create a set of install CD's (hopefully Warly has fixed the kernel selection issue) and do various network and cd installs and document my findings. Cool. But maybe also we need to have a summary of the desired behaviour? Fred? Florin? Otherwise we don't know what to file bugs for ... I know time is of the essence at this pint (I meant point, maybe that is my subconscious rising to the surface ;-) ), and it would be nice to see this fixed/understood before rc2, but this is the best I can do given the rest of my schedule.

Re: [Cooker] Status of multimedia kernel?
Well, while talking to the Linux Audio User's Group, my idea was that everything they want in a specialized audio distro, we could easily have with a little work. But it's not turning out to be so easy. Mainly this includes: 1. low-latency, preemptable, capabilities kernel 2. jackd with capabilities 3. ardour 4. lots of cool sound toys So far we've had problems with 1, 2, and 3. The kernel was graciously made by Danny, and I can easily make an SMP version, but we can't seem to get it into contribs, and we have no commitment that it will be the same version as that in main at release time. It would help if we had a little cooperation from MDK team on this. As for jackd with capabilities, I had to make it a compile-time option. This is fine for experienced users, but a pain otherwise. I wish there was an easier way. Also, I've almost finished ardour, only to learn that 'the author' doesn't want binary copies distributed, because he's afraid users will pester him and/or us about bugs/limitations which he already know about. He does however allow gentoo to have an emerge script from CVS. So either we disrespect his wishes (and they are only wishes; there's no clause in the GPL saying source-code only distribution), or I will adapt my SRPM to do a CVS checkout. Probably go with latter option. No want to step on any toes if possible. I expected to tell people, Hey we've got an easy to use, fully capable distro that will do all the cool audio stuff you want out-of-the-box. Just: urpmi jack ardour kernel-multimedia.

Re: [Cooker] Cannot change volume in any multimedia programs (snd-emu10k1)
From Kmix I can use the following sliders to adjust the volume: Wave, Emu10k1 PCM only changes the volume on the left speaker. All other sliders (including master/base/treble) don't do anything at all. Ok, do I get it correctly that 'wave' is adjusting the volume of both speakers? In that case you can use /proc/asound/card0/oss_mixer to bind OSS PCM to Wave something like this: echo 'PCM Wave 0' /proc/asound/card0/oss_mixer should enable volume control in OSS emulation. For bass/treble you did unmute tone-control? I'm not sure bass/treble works on digital speakers though, because alsa still uses AC97 and not the digital mixer AFAIK (hope this changes soon and all will be solved). d. So i wanted to try the oss driver and tried emu10k1 and afterwards audigy and couldn't get any sound with them at all. So now I am back with Alsa but can't adjust the volume from within the applications. I think for that indeed you need to use emu10k1-tools. d.

Well, either we need

mserver should work out-the-box.

mserver just uses if{up,down} ppp0 by default, which drakconnect does
configure.
I know how I can do that ;) I don't even use drakconnect since on cli
it is

[Cooker] [Bug 2527] [nautilus] No text preview in Nautilus icons
http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2527 --- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-02-28 13:50 --- Sorry about that -- I just now zapped my config, and the text previews showed up. I'd thought they'd work just nby keeping my packages updated to Cooker. There is still one thing: I have Local Files Only selected, but previews show up for files on my mounted SMB server. The Nautilus help doesn't have enough detail, so I'm not sure how it defines local vs. remote. But normally, I'd assumed local meant only mounted filesystems on my hard drive/CD-ROM/diskette. --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. --- Reminder: --- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: UNCONFIRMED creation_date: description: Preferences set to show text in icons Local Files Only or Always.

Re: [Cooker] Status of multimedia kernel?
On Fri, 2003-02-28 at 10:50, Buchan Milne wrote: As for jackd with capabilities, I had to make it a compile-time option. Why? Does it need the mutli-media kernel, or is there some other issue? It's the same, except in the capabilities version, there is an extra script, jackstart, which has to be suid root. I think it's pretty harmless without the capabilities kernel, but I'm not an expert. WITH the capabilities kernel, it is decidedly unsafe. How about building it parallel, so that a build of the srpm builds it once without capabilities, once with, and have the two packages obsolete each other etc so that you can swap between them with: # urpmi jackit or # urpmi jackit-capabilities That would be great if jack was in contribs. But since it's in main, I don't think they want any suid scripts at all. Not sure about that though. Also, I've almost finished ardour, only to learn that 'the author' doesn't want binary copies distributed, because he's afraid users will pester him and/or us about bugs/limitations which he already know about. If he does not want users to use his software, he should not make it available. Users should be aware that the first place they file bugs is with their distro. Many people are 'respecting' his unpublished wishes (Planet CCRMA, debian), and others aren't (connetiva has an rpm), and some get around it (gentoo). But that is ridiculous. What if you *happen* to get a totally wasted copy from cvs? It is better to have a binary package that is known to at least run. You're preaching to the choir here Buchan. :-) 1)See if we can campaing Mandrakesoft to assist getting Danny's kernel into contrib 2)build 2 versions of jackit in the srpm 3)Ignore the ardour author's wishes, but offer to handle bug reports from Mandrake users (by directing them to bugzilla), and provide binaries. This I really like. The only real problem is having a suid script in main. Maybe we can have jackit in main and jackit-capabilities in contribs? I know it's messy though.

Re: [Cooker] Status of multimedia kernel?
I have been building ardour rpms for Mandrake quite a while now and i have not seen one question on ardour devellop or user mailinglists about bugs in my the rpms. Actually i decided to start building Mandrake 9.0 ardour rpms when i saw that over 50% of the messages in ardour devel was about how to build ardour. Since i started to announce new rpm version this kind of entries has dropped down to something like 25%. I really think that you should build ardour rpms for it but you must update them frequently. And of make it clear that it is a program thats in canstant development. I have had only positive response on the rpms i have published on my site. The only thing thats missing is the low-latency kernel. /thac
