Re: [Cooker] More laptop support stuff
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 !

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. -- Adrian Rodriguez University of Southern California Computer Science http://www-scf.usc.edu/~sergior

Re: [Cooker] Two questions
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 :))) thank you -andrey

Third, we need to fix it but each kernel area needs some sort of special knowledge I guess, and I'm not sure juan is super-expert for every possible drivers out there :). [...] The pcnet32 driver in kernel.org 2.4.21 final was semi-broken, as it works for some, and not for others... It got fixed in one of the 2.4.22-pre updates, but I don't recall wich... An easy solution is grab the pcnet32 from the latest pre, and merge it into current mdk kernel... It's a funny thing about 2 network cards, one is the pcnet32, and the other is via-rhine... They get broken every once in a while or have a lot of trouble, often due to poor hw implementation, or because of that the code for them is not in good shape due to different reasons... :-( I know... I have had them both... Now I only have a pcnet32, wich isn't that great under hevy load... Regards Thomas

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.

Quoting \Andrey Borzenkov\ [EMAIL PROTECTED]: -Original Message- Quoting Andrey Borzenkov [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I do not know if it specific in 2.6 or just newer ALSA - but now (in 2.6) no /proc/asound/dev is created. It does not matter for devfs case because it stil creates /dev/snd/... as before. But for non-devfs case initscript assumes that no ALSA should be loaded if /proc/asound/dev does not exist. Even worse - for 2.4 script wipes out /dev/snd and links it to /proc/asound/dev, thus leaving bogus links when we boot 2.6. So even fixing script and manually creating /dev/snd/* filew will last until next time 2.4 is booted. I have no idea how to solve it; anyone with better ALSA knowledge out there? actually just found this ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/alsa/2.4-patches/ and i'll try to merge it in 2.4. you might want to make a forward port of ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/alsa/2.4-patches/alsa-zx-proc-devs.dif.gz adding device files on procfs, which was removed from the recent ALSA release why would you need that? The original problem is incompatiblility between old (2.4 kernel) and new (2.6 kernel) ALSA. If you include new ALSA in 2.4, incompatibility goes away and problem is solved. just intermediate solution until alsa-0.9.6 is merged in the 2.4 kernel, for the long run this is really BAD BAD STUPID idea (sorry) svetljo

Re: [Cooker] More laptop support stuff
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. Owen On Tuesday 05 Aug 2003 7:49 pm, Adrian Rodriguez wrote: Hi.

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.

[Cooker] [Bug 4522] [drakxtools] New: hpoj install fails to start
http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=4522 Product: drakxtools Component: printerdrake Summary: hpoj install fails to start Product: drakxtools Version: 9.2-0.27mdk Platform: PC OS/Version: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: printerdrake AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 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). -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

[Cooker] [Bug 4509] [rpmdrake] New: bad signature popup needs scrollable display
http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=4509 Product: rpmdrake Component: program Summary: bad signature popup needs scrollable display Product: rpmdrake Version: 2.1-30mdk Platform: PC OS/Version: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: program AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 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. -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

As in Mandrake 9.1, in an HP Omnibook XE3 with a Intel 830M video card, X crashes the machine when logging out to terminal. 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: http://groups.google.pt/groups?q=Mandrake+omnibook+xe3+9.1hl=pt-PTlr=ie=UTF- 8oe=UTF-8selm=32ee77b6.0303280308.6fc5cb44%40posting.google.comrnum=4 ) but 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.

Most other categories generate mail to either specific developers or product categories within Mandrake (e.g. [EMAIL PROTECTED]). I assumed that this was intentional (because of the probably high proportion of user-error incidents in this category), but someone on the Cooker ML advised entering a bug report for it.
