It appears to have loaded the network card module (pcnet32) and

A more generic fix may be:
%{?__cputoolize: %{__cputoolize}}

Otherwise the build fails on 9.1 and -- I assume but have no way of
testing -- prior versions. So far this has cropped in in
arts-1.1.3-2mdk.src.rpm and kdelibs-3.1.3-3mdk.src.rpm

 Backward compatibility has never been an issue for mdk package.

Depends on the packages. Samba still builds all the way down to 8.0
(tested), and I took a patch from someone who still built on 7.2. Luca
keeps cyrus-imapd building down to at least 8.2.

 The advantage
 is that it helps keeping spec files clears. And I doubt just changing
this
 macro call would be enough anyway.

KDE packages all built on 9.1 before this, and possibly earlier versions
too.

Anyway, I think with latest rpm, these additions can be removed, since
%configure now calls __cputoolize:

Re: [Cooker] More laptop support stuff

2003-08-06 Thread OS
 Have you tried to update the BIOSes on those guys? ACPI is the replacement
 for APM. 
BIOS updates don't appear very common for `older' laptops. After all they 
would much rather you bought a new one. The last BIOS update for my Inspiron 
7000 was about 2 years ago. I modded the processor, RAM and hard disc but 
with no input or support from Dell who basically don't care about systems 
this old.

 APM, as I understand it, will be phased out if favor of ACPI in
 future kernels and releases. 
I sincerely hope no for just the reason described above. I have been waiting a 
long time for suspend / resume to work correctly on this model under Linux so 
I hope it is kept as an option for some time to come !

  Subject: [Cooker] More laptop support stuff
 
 
  Hi.  I've been using mandrake on laptops for a while now but
  every release
  there's always something i have to research online before i
  get it to work...
 
  Case 1:  My Dell Inspiron 4000.
  I've only been using mandrake on this guy since 9.1 came out.
   I went through
  the install and in the end i looked at the lilo config dialog
  and everything
  looked ok.  So i started the laptop and i didn't get any
  battery readings :(
  so ACPI wasn't working for this laptop.  I don't know if its
  a hardware
  issue??  So i uninstalled ACPI and modified the lilo config
  and next time the
  computer was turned on i had battery readings with APM.  So
  I'm happy with
  that but someone new to linux would never know how to do
  this.  I'm still
  downloading cooker isos so i will test to see if things have
  changed but
  just in case someone else has an inspiron 4000, have you guys tested?
  Another thing that my girlfriend complained about was how
  there were so many
  games installed but alot of them weren't playable.  She
  wanted to play tux
  racer and it was just really slow.  I don't know if there's just now
  acceleration for the detected video card or the config is messed up.
  The detected card was:
  Description: Rage Mobility M3 AGP 2x
  Module:  Card: ATI Rage 128 Mobility
  That's it for the issues on this laptop.
 
  Case 2: Dell inspiron 8100
  I've been using mandrake on this guy since 8.2.  After 8.2
  everything was
  ok except battery meters again.  Using ACPI never did
  anything.  I kept check
  my logs and it kept saying something like trying to allocate
  0 bytes...
  for acpid.  So i gave up on that and tried apm... i managed to get it
  somewhat working.  I was able to press Fn+F3 and go to the
  BIOS screen that
  reads the batteries but when i hit escape to come back to X
  the clock was
  wrong.  everything else on that laptop works great including
  the radeon 7500.
  My girlfriend is very new to Linux and when the laptop is
  connected to the
  powercord she is very happy with it.  She likes KDE alot more
  than her WinXP.
  The only thing that bothers her is that when she takes it to
  work or class and
  its running on battery she can't tell how much time she has left.
  I've done research on this problem and I can't figure it out.
   Does anyone
  know what the problem is?  I think this issue really needs to
  get cleared up
  because a battery meter is very important.  I have a friend
  with the same
  laptop and he just gave up... sad... but I can't blame him
  because he's
  always on the run... so he swaps batteries in and out... but
  9.1 that he had
  on there never worked.

One aspect (creating a partition of type A0 - IBM THinkpad hibernation -

hibernation partition needs something like lphdisk or tphdisk. lphdisk
needs a Thinkpad hibernation partition which is a primary which does not
overlap with an extended (so I haven't managed to test it), and tphdisk

Thanks! I will test ASAP.

Since most of this discussion was around post install for laptops, maybe a
laptop config wizard post install or a Drak tool for laptops? Another slick
thing to have would be modules and mappings for Multimedia keys and sound
buttons. Could the tool take care of that as well? I know there are a ton of
different little projects and modules and whatnot but would some one be
interested in taking this up?

I would for the HP/Omnibook side of things... With a little handholding...

Re: [Cooker] Two questions

2003-08-06 Thread Andrey Borzenkov

first of all have you installed cooker version or compiled from
sources?

 module-init-tools was installed already.

if you *installed* current module-init-tools (as opposed to
updating it) /etc/modprobe.conf is generated automatically.

Otherwise I suggest removing module-init-tools, removing (or backing
up /etc/modprobe.conf) and installing it again. Simply
running generate-modprobe.conf produces overwhelming number of
entries most of which are provided as default.

 I didn't know about the generate-modprobe.conf command - but I ran it,
 it seemed to do something - and the I rebooted.  Still there is no
 pcnet32 module to load.

by default it just spits output to stdout so it is not of much use.
Would you mind showing /etc/modprobe.conf?

Module seems to exist but I have no idea if it even compiles.
Try CONFIG_PCNET32 (surprise :) If it compiles and works, tell
Olivier to include it in its package.


 Has anybody written a how-to for getting the kernel-2.6 to run
 properly in Mandrake?  I'm not afraid to read is I could find
 something specific to Mandrake (or Cooker)

Theoretically there should not be any need for such how to because you
just install kernel 2.6 package and run it. To make it possible much more user 
feedback is needed. Ideally this feedback should provide slightly more information 
than I tried it and it does not work :)))

 What causes this?

 I've seen this as well.  It's OK the first time (after the firsttime
 wizard), but on subsequent logins it not only hangs around but covers
 anything else on the screen.

 I had a similar problem with post-9.1 2.2 GNOME (circa May 18) where
 logging in and out of different userids would eventually cause a hang
 when you requested logout.  Well, not a true hang, but the logout
 dialog box would take about 5 minutes to come up.

 In both cases, the blockage seems to break if you initiate enough
 other GNOME-related activity.  In the older logout case, opening a GNOME
 terminal would trigger it.  I haven't noticed a pattern in the new case.

 It's like something is holding a lock and then decides to release it, or
 maybe a socket listener isn't listening closely enough...

This may be daft (and unrelated) but I see this with the KDE spash screen when 
its restoring a session. I find that simply clicking on it makes if go 
away...

I had similar problems on another thread, and the suggestion was to use
--allow-nodeps --allow-force
I had to respond to some scary prompts, but urpmi urpmi eventually 
installed the latest urpmi.

BTW, I'm happy to see that as of yesterday an hd.img install with all

package install errors.  So I can revert to testing installed systems 
and have less dependence on incrementally upgraded systems.




Re: [Cooker] More laptop support stuff

2003-08-06 Thread OS
Hello,

I have a Dell Inspiron 7000 with an aging ATI Rage Mobility Pro. As far as I 
know the stock XFree does not support 3D accelleration for the ATI Mobility 
range. However those nice people over at RetinalBurn 
(http://www.retinalburn.net/linux/dri_xv.html) are working on this and it can 
be used on a binary XFree and a binary kernel proividing the source is 
available to build it kernel module. The hope is to integrate this into the 
kernel and XFree but heaven only knows when this might occur. I use it and it 
is superb. Any one with an older Rage / Rage Pro / Rage 128 / Rage Mobility 
could do worse than investigate if their card is supported. 

By the way, only with the release of kernel-2.4.21 has suspend and standby 
worked at all on my Dell (still no good on my Acer :-(  ). The 7000 is too 
old for ACPI but APM works brilliantly now.

The battery meter works fine on the 7000, but again I can't use ACPI.

 Hi.  I've been using mandrake on laptops for a while now but every release
 there's always something i have to research online before i get it to
 work...

 Case 1:  My Dell Inspiron 4000.
 I've only been using mandrake on this guy since 9.1 came out.  I went
 through the install and in the end i looked at the lilo config dialog and
 everything looked ok.  So i started the laptop and i didn't get any battery
 readings :( so ACPI wasn't working for this laptop.  I don't know if its a
 hardware issue??  So i uninstalled ACPI and modified the lilo config and
 next time the computer was turned on i had battery readings with APM.  So
 I'm happy with that but someone new to linux would never know how to do
 this.  I'm still downloading cooker isos so i will test to see if things
 have changed but just in case someone else has an inspiron 4000, have
 you guys tested? Another thing that my girlfriend complained about was how
 there were so many games installed but alot of them weren't playable.  She
 wanted to play tux racer and it was just really slow.  I don't know if
 there's just now acceleration for the detected video card or the config is
 messed up. The detected card was:
 Description: Rage Mobility M3 AGP 2x
 Module:  Card: ATI Rage 128 Mobility
 That's it for the issues on this laptop.

 Case 2: Dell inspiron 8100
 I've been using mandrake on this guy since 8.2.  After 8.2 everything was
 ok except battery meters again.  Using ACPI never did anything.  I kept
 check my logs and it kept saying something like trying to allocate 0
 bytes... for acpid.  So i gave up on that and tried apm... i managed to
 get it somewhat working.  I was able to press Fn+F3 and go to the BIOS
 screen that reads the batteries but when i hit escape to come back to X the
 clock was wrong.  everything else on that laptop works great including the
 radeon 7500. My girlfriend is very new to Linux and when the laptop is
 connected to the powercord she is very happy with it.  She likes KDE alot
 more than her WinXP. The only thing that bothers her is that when she takes
 it to work or class and its running on battery she can't tell how much time
 she has left.
 I've done research on this problem and I can't figure it out.  Does anyone
 know what the problem is?  I think this issue really needs to get cleared
 up because a battery meter is very important.  I have a friend with the
 same laptop and he just gave up... sad... but I can't blame him because
 he's always on the run... so he swaps batteries in and out... but 9.1 that
 he had on there never worked.

 manually type in dhclient from a root console for it to get an IP

This should be filled against gimp and not against gnome2.

The problems lies within the menu commad used for gimp, gimp-remote -n -f, which 
does not work for launching gimp from a menu but only when used for launching 
gimp to 'Open file with'.

In today's cooker, an expert install which includes configuring an HP MF3330
hpoj printer completes without error.  However, when you boot the system, the
hpoj daemon fails during initialization with the error

/etc/init.d/hpoj setup needs to be run as root

If you do this, you get the error

The following devices are using an obsolete configuration file format.  Use
./hpoj setup to delete and re-probe them

You can continue, and it appears to probe/install the printer correctly. 
However, an attempt to print a test page shows the printer as not started.

It seems that if setup needs to be run, it should be run by the install.  Also,
if the message is to be believed, printerdrake is creating an obsolete config
file during the install.

This may be related to bug 4521 (can't install printer-utils).

This is most apparent due to the current signature conflict in all cooker packages.

If many packages have bad signatures, the popup which displays them and asks if
you want to continue has its yes/no buttons pushed off of the bottom of the
screen.  The popup window itself cannot be resized, so you can't get to them.

The package list should be shown in a scrollable textarea to avoid this problem.

It is a documented bug ( http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2741 ), it 
is reported several times in the web and newsgroups (example:

no one seems to care.

When of 9.1, i even spent 17 euros in a paid incident for nothing. 
No one solved this mistery.

So, in Mandrake 9.2 it seems that me and all the folks owning this video card 
will have to stick with this bug, right ?

Please, don't make me retun to SuSE where there is no such problem.

After the first login for a user, the GNOME splashscreen in today's cooker does
not close, and covers anything behind it on the screen.

If you open a GNOME terminal window, the splashscreen closes.

The last icon to appear on the splashscreen is the MDK Galaxy one, but as I
unchecked the checkbox during the first login, I don't know whether it would
have already displayed or not.
