If anyone has any idea why this driver would cause my system to hard lock, I would be very thankful for the input. I would like to use the alsa drivers because they appear to be designed with software suspend in mind (at least, that's the way it appears from parsing the suspend scripts). _ MSN 8 with e-mail virus protection service: 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/virus I just wanted to give an update on the status of this problem. Apparently, the driver is configured wrongly during installation by drakx. As I stated above, I instead installed the oss equivalent driver and was able to successfully get through the system install. If I go back later and change the driver back to the alsa driver using draksound, then the driver is reconfigured perfectly. Thus, I now have sound via alsa. So for me, this is no longer a problem; for new users, the drakx installer needs to be corrected so that this driver is correctly configured (it would be discouraging to Linux newbies if their system hardlocked on the first boot). _ Now I have one more quick update and a question: I have been able to get the alsa driver to successfully suspend and recover if I set the following flags in /etc/sysconfig/suspend: RESTORE_SOUND=yes SOUND_MODULES=sb uart401 sound soundcore maestro cs4281 If RESTORE_SOUND=no , then only the left sound channel recovers from a suspend (even then, this channel sounds like it has experienced an upward pitch shift). The only problem with setting RESTORE_SOUND=yes is that it causes the gnome Control Volume applet to die when I reenter xfree86. Since this is sorta annoying, I'd like to be able to just get rid of the applet and instead configure some laptop function keys to control my volume. Does anyone know how I would go about doing this? On my laptop the same system of volume control works as in the manual for me it's fn-f5 and then the left and right arrow keys. Have you tried to do it this way... IOW the way the manual says? _

It's not new with 9.1 though, all mandrake's kernels I used since 8.2 behave the same. It reboots correctly with the stock kernel. OTOH acpi seems to work fine (though I found no way yet to suspend, pmsuspend doesn't work). Try uncommenting the last line in /etc/sysconfig/suspend. This enables suspend to disk... On some of the laptops I've seen this works where suspend to RAM (the default) doesn't. (and this one was a Toshiba, the model escapes me.) Make sure you also put a line in lilo.conf in the append section that says resume=/dev/hdxx where xx is the letter and number of your swap partition, and rerun lilo. OH yeah... make sure swapsize ramsize James Another probable regression in this kernel is that the default sound driver suggested by lspcidrake (trident) doesn't work (it did with previous kernels) while the alsa one (snd-ali5451) is working fine. If you need the output of lspci or lspcidrake just tell me. Bye

[Cooker] ~/.cddb different handling Gnome vs KDE
is it possible to have user cddb handling unified over the two desktops? Grip will place entries in top dir whereas KDE puts them in genre dirs. So I have the same entry twice: one in top dir from grip and another one in $genre dir from KDE apps. The main reason for my asking is that I made a rpm for the new version of perl_CDDB_get for my dialup friends so that they can cache the checksums and can bulk-query a cddb server once they're on the net. This version I patched to default to dirs in user's home instead of global dirs. And there I have the problem that I don't know how the KDE apps sort entries into subdirs. So basically I would like KDE apps to skip the subdirs and place entries in top level ~/.cddb because that would make it much easier for CDDB_get (and me of course) - Mark

[Cooker] Emulators menu stuff esp VICE and XWine
could someone please move the VICE menu entries to a dedicated submenu.
I have added menu entries for wine stuff (in its own submenu) and would
like to suggest doing the same with all emulators that have more than
one menu entry. VICE is the only one besides Wine that I use so I can't
tell about the others.
I attach my suggestion for changes of vice spec.
About XWine, even though people might see XWine as only a
configuration frontend for wine, I think it is a proper app in its own
right and should be moved out of Configuration/Other into
Applications/Emulators.
thanks everybody

A summary of the bug fixes is given at the end of this document. Of particular note is that 2.0.45 addresses two security vulnerabilities, both affecting all platforms. Prior Apache 2.0 versions through 2.0.44 had a significant Denial of Service vulnerability that was identified and reported by David Endler [EMAIL PROTECTED], and fixed with this release. The specific details of this issue will be published by David Endler one week from this release, on April 8th [this is the correct, revised date].

During the install, if you hit F1, and then linux mem=880m, you can install using the normal installer. I believe this is the real solution to the problem many people have during installation. For the normal system boot, vag=normal is necessary, but works fine. Adrian Golumbovici (see 2324) isolated the problem on his system, and I can confirm that using mem=880m enables me to use the standard installer. I think this is a really important item to get into the errata for 9.1. I'm assuming the issue is 1G (actually 880M) or more of memory, which causes problems with the NVIDIA TI series of cards, and many high end ATI cards as well. I'm afraid we may be in danger of not connecting up several issues relating to the kernel used during installation and some particular hardware items. Paul Misner

[Cooker] NEW INSTALL IMAGES FOR MDK 9.1...
Sorry for the delays, but my DSL is broken, so I've been dooing most of my downloading over my GPRS phone... (thank god it's fixed montly fee ,-)... already over 70MB in just a couple of days) Here is a copy of what I have at: http://www.iki.fi/tmb/Cooker/ (with some added contents...) MDK Cooker Stuff by tmb Here's updated stuff to MDK 9.1: Here is the updated boot disk: http://www.iki.fi/tmb/Cooker/13mdkboot.img Here is the fix for standard kernel: http://www.iki.fi/tmb/Cooker/13mdkfix.img Here is the fix for enterprise kernel: http://www.iki.fi/tmb/Cooker/13mdkentfix.img (of couse I could have built a fix for every kernel, but I want them tested,and theese 2 kernels shoud give everyone a chance to try them out...) What do they try to fix? - the boot problem with Promise based IDE controllers, by setting CONFIG_PDC202XX_FORCE=Y - the VESA framebuffer problem that hangs systems with 1024 MB of RAM or more... (by adding the vesafb_vram_option patch that is listed below) Here's how to use them: Download them to your computer and write the images to floppy disks. (you'll need at least 2 of the files above, the boot, and the one depending on the kernel you wan't to update...) the command under Linux is: dd if= of=/dev/fd0 bs=512 Insert your MDK 9.1 CD and boot with your newly made boot disk and install as usual when you have installed the system, and the installer tells you to reboot,DONT!! Instead you need to do this: 1. Go to console (Ctrl-Alt-F2) 2. type: chroot /mnt (and press enter) 3. insert your floppy fix disk created above 4. type: mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy -t vfat (and press enter) 5. type: /mnt/floppy/Install (and press enter) 6. Wait until the prompt returns (you will see some file copying, ...) 7. type: umount /mnt/floppy (and press enter) 8. type: exit (and press enter) 9. Go back to installer (Ctrl-Alt-F7) 10 NOW you can reboot (don't forget to remove the floppy) What does it do? - it removes ONLY the files in /boot that are related to the kernel it fixes (vmlinuz,initrd,map,config,kernel) and replaces them with the fixed ones... - it removes /lib/modules/kernel_to_fix/kernel/drivers/ide/raid/* and replaces them with fixed ones - it removes /lib/modules/kernel_to_fix/modules.dep and recreates it with depmod using the replaced /boot/System.map... - it installs the kernel by the 'installkernel' command so it recreates the initrd and updates lilo/grub Does it work? - YES ... (atleast for me...) - I have tested this fix procedure almost 20 times, and none of the 3 systems I tested on has complained... If you have the vesa framebuffer problem: when you are booting from your disk made above, and get to the first install screen (were you have the option to press F1...) do this: 1. Press F1 2. type: linux video=vesa:vram:32 (and press enter) (the numer 32 means that you want to allocate 32MB for the framebuffer, and you can choose any size you want, specified in MB. A generic rule is to allocate the same amount as your graphic card has RAM, but it's your choice) 3. the installer continues, install as normal. 4. when you get to the summary screen, choose the bootloader configuration. 5. enter the line used above in the append field and accept the changes. 6. dont forget the fix procedure mentioned above. Other useful patches: (they are all diffed against kernel-source-2.4.21-0.13mdk, and only useful to those who knows how to apply patches to the kernel, and rebuild it) Disable local apic on presario 7xx series + some other: http://www.iki.fi/tmb/Cooker/dmi_scan_update.patch.bz2 (this one is the same as the one I sent earlier, and is included in the mm kernel) Firewire update to linux1394.org branch-2.4 revision 848: http://www.iki.fi/tmb/Cooker/ieee1394_rev848.patch.bz2 Buffer handling updates for every upcoming nic update: (taken from pre6) http://www.iki.fi/tmb/Cooker/net_skbuf_update.patch.bz2 Update via-thine to 1.1.16 to fix some bugs: http://www.iki.fi/tmb/Cooker/net_via_rhine_1.1.16_update.patch.bz2 Updates wireless stuff to orinoco 0.13.c to fix bugs: http://www.iki.fi/tmb/Cooker/orinoco_13c.patch.bz2 (the file hermes.conf should be copied to directory /etc/pcmcia (or better yet merged with pcmcia-cs package...)) updates pci.ids to 1.48 + *a lot* of nVidia ids: http://www.iki.fi/tmb/Cooker/pci.ids_1.48-tmb.patch.bz2 adds vesa framebuffer size option: http://www.iki.fi/tmb/Cooker/vesafb_vram_option.patch.bz2 Have Fun !! (and let me know if it works for you...) Thomas PS. If everything works out I'll have a new kernel by Sunday, wich has all the patches above, along with stuff like: - radeon framebuffer support (experimental) - nvidia framebuffer support (maybe...) - ide subsystem from pre5-ac3 with different patches (close to what the 2.4.21 will have, if I understand Marecelos message on the Kernel ML) - updated support for SK nics, including gigabit - reiserfs from pre6 with

So for me, this is no longer a problem; for new users, the drakx installer needs to be corrected so that this driver is correctly configured (it would be discouraging to Linux newbies if their system hardlocked on the first boot). _ Now I have one more quick update and a question: I have been able to get the alsa driver to successfully suspend and recover if I set the following flags in /etc/sysconfig/suspend: RESTORE_SOUND=yes SOUND_MODULES=sb uart401 sound soundcore maestro cs4281 If RESTORE_SOUND=no , then only the left sound channel recovers from a suspend (even then, this channel sounds like it has experienced an upward pitch shift). The only problem with setting RESTORE_SOUND=yes is that it causes the gnome Control Volume applet to die when I reenter xfree86. Since this is sorta annoying, I'd like to be able to just get rid of the applet and instead configure some laptop function keys to control my volume. Does anyone know how I would go about doing this? On my laptop the same system of volume control works as in the manual for me it's fn-f5 and then the left and right arrow keys. Have you tried to do it this way... IOW the way the manual says? _ That's how my system is supposed to work, but those buttons are not automatically configured under Linux. I saw some documentation about configuring the function keys when I was a Linux newbie, but I haven't been able to relocate it. _ Add photos to your e-mail with MSN 8.

Eventually ending up with a screen shot like this. http://www.gkmweb.com/images/9.1-KDE_vnc.jpg The desktop keeps flashing periodically. GNOME has a similar behavior in that it flashes, but the desktop seems to load. Occasionally after one of the flashes, an error message pops up a dialogue box that says KDesktop error. Sorry, i was not able to capture it. I thought maybe the Galaxy theme had something to do with it, so I switched KDE to the Keramik theme, and it still exhibited this behavior, although the the error message and the flashing stopped occurring when GNOME was running. So maybe it does belong to Galaxy, and that led me to post it here as a KDE-Galaxy bug. vnc logs have nothing interesting in them and the system logs are equally bare on this issue.

Are there others? * GTransferManager. The app works, but the applet seems to have disappeared? * Gnome Sidebar. Is this in a working state yet? * QuickRecord.

And since I hardly ever look into Config/Other I just concluded that it wasn't there at all. Like kgpg which I think belongs in apps/filetools where all the other encryption stuff is. Though I'd still prefer getting a separate apps/encryption menu+rpm_group. But that's for later. Wine now finally has its own - still very basic - configuration tool (winecfg). That was the reason why I started with giving it and the other tools menu entries. Right now I have entries apps/emu/wine Configurator, Explorer (meaning file manager), Notepad, Progman, Software_uninstall and Minesweeper. Winecfg itself doesn't seem to work, though. It apparently doesn't process the user's config correctly. A trace shows that the config is opened but winecfg's boxes are all empty. Anyway, it looks promising. Do you still build wine for club?

From computer point of vue there are only charset encodings. en_DK.UTF-8 uses UTF-8, so it can handle all letters needed by Danish language. However, as XFree86 doesn't know about en_DK.UTF-8, then it defaults the charset encoding to us-ascii, that is, 7nit and no accent at all. The keyboard still sends the codes of the accented letters when pressing the keys of the danbish keyboard, but as XFree86 decided it will work in 7bit us-ascii, it simply ignores everything the keyboard sends unless it is pure ascii. By adding a line: en_US.UTF-8/XLC_LOCALE: en_DK.UTF-8 You tell XFree86 that for locale en_DK.UTF-8 it has to look at the /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/locale/en_US.UTF-8/XLC_LOCALE file, the file exist (in fact it is used by almost all UTF-8 locales); that is, it is known by XFree86, and it will happily accept what the keyboard sends. --- 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: ASSIGNED creation_date: description: When i install Cooker, i choose Norwegian Keyboard layout. But later, when the settings are summarised, the setting appear to be some kind of English or US keyboard. I try to change to norwegian keyboard again, but my changes are always ignored. Workaround: After the installtaion, when the system is running, you can change keyboard layout in drakconf and then configure your X server again. And you have to pray to God that your root password is not corrupt. Curcomstances: I did an installation of current Cooker yesterday friday 7th, from ftp: //sunsite.uio.no/linux/Mandrake/Mandrake-devel/cooker/i586. The installation was done from scratch on two new PCs. I chose English Language and norwegian keyboard. The installation was done in text modus. The graphical modus did not work: A png file was not found, and in graphical modus, the installation program refused to install the packages.
[Cooker] [Bug 82] [PyQt] PyQt doesn't install
http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=82 --- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-04-04 23:01 --- Looks like a problem similar to the one noted here: http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/pyqt/faq.php Quoth: - I get errors about missing symbols related to Qt styles Some Linux distributions package Qt with some or all of the style classes implemented as plugins. However they don't always update Qt's qconfig.h to reflect this. So if, for example, the QWindowsStyle class has been implemented as a plugin then add the following line to your $QTDIR/include/qconfig.h file and re-build PyQt. #define QT_NO_STYLE_WINDOWS - Maybe SGI style wasn't redefined correctly? --- 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: ASSIGNED creation_date: description: Asks for sip8 and libsip8 but there is only sip9 and lipsip9.
