Thank You, that it was and now I could install module-init-tools too. And see if it makes any difrence about 2.6 modules :) Cheers Stronne
Re: [Cooker] kernel-tmb-2.4.22-0.5.1tmb_mdk
Now... I didn't enable multiple scsi luns since I was told you should be able to override it with lilo/grub on append line "max_scsi_luns=..." or as an option in /etc/modules.conf options scsi_mod max_scsi_luns=... Now, please tell me does it work for you ... If not... I'll have to reconsider switching it on by default... Could you explain that a wee bit better. I'm generally not that good at that kind of stuff (hence why I asked if you could pop it on as default) But if you tell me what to do I'd be more than happy to try. Mike

Couple of wireless networking suggestions. on the Orinoco driver, what do you think about adding a patch for the monitor mode so it works with kismet, and airsnort out of the box. patch is available here: http://airsnort.shmoo.com/orinocoinfo.html (thou it seems to be down at the moment...) Also the drivers for the Cisco/Aironet 4500/4800/340/350 series cards can be updated to 1.54 through the cvs version at http://airo-linux.sourceforge.net/ this allows monitor mode for the cisco cards (I just got a 352). Cisco has a version 2.0 available at their site, it is under the MPL. I believe it adds some cisco specific features but doesn't include the wireless-ext support seen in the sourcforge driver. keep up the good work on your kernels.

Some of them are updated by other scripts and programs. Other are deprecated and are replaced by ??? Can you put a little comment in these config files such as : # used by ... # updated by ... # deprecated : use instead ... (ex: /etc/networks) People who use Debian, Slackware, LFS... are lost when they see a Mandrake because they fight against MCC. IMHO, few comments can improve the comprehension of Mdk's architecture. With Mdk 9.1, I found a bug in adsl connection due to this file with imbedded blanks making an error in /etc/ppp/pppoe.conf . The file is /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0\ \(using\ module\ bcm4400\) NB: No problem with the same card as eth1 -> ifcfg-eth1 It was difficult to understand the problem starting from init.

If I can't get it work better with the club and with Mandrake I have less motivation in helping Mandrake by joining the club. You want users tu help Mandrake existe and develop ?

Now we need: someone in charge to change it ;) Further: Is $6 allways used ? ipparam string Provides an extra parameter to the ip-up and ip-down scripts. If this option is given, the string supplied is given as the 6th parameter to those scripts. Would it be good to obsolete ip-up.local and use ip-up.d/somescripts instead ? pro: - it is more clear what it does, instead /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/if-up.d - it is sure that it gets executed, not depending on ipparam contra: - /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/if-up.d has the same purpose, if it is working allways Steffen

Re: [Cooker] weird slowdowns with Cooker today
I am not sure if this is relevant for your case. I assembled a PC based on the MSI-6570 K7N2 Delta (Nforce2) MB with an Athlon XP (Barton) CPU. The first I noticed was that it would now and then freeze during e2fsck on large file systems. I did an extensive memory test without finding any faults, so the situation was unclear. Then I stumbled across a description of how to lower the CPU temperature by enabling the powersaving mode of the AMD Athlon/Duron processors. I found the Linux program athcool at http://members.jcom.home.ne.jp/jacobi/linux/softwares.html The following statement caught my attention: WARNING: Depending your motherboard and/or hardware components, enabling Athlon powersaving mode sometimes causes that (1) noisy sound playback (2) slowdown harddisk performance (3) system hangup or instable Evidently I was having (3) without having enabled powersaving. BUT: it turned out that the powersaving bit was turned on from the very start, presumably by the bios. After having turned off the powersaving bit by athcool I have NEVER had any single case of instability. I have had a few hangups during the boot-up procedure before powersaving was turned on. I did post a report on this problem on the MSI forum, but I have had absolutely ZERO response.

According pppd man :
The addresses supplied by the peer (if any) are passed to the
/etc/ppp/ip-up script in the environment variables DNS1 and DNS2.
So why not use DNS1 and DNS2 variables as my original proposal does ?

But why keep the "# ppp temp entry" lines ?
Why not use if(!/.*# ppp temp entry.*/) print $0} and remove the

Yep. I just wanted to say that you are not right that it doesn't work currently. After digging trough the script I agree that it is solved suboptimal.

Are there cases there a dynamic DNS don't want to be used ? which ? From what
I have read on the net, if the option usepeerdns is used the variable
USEPEERDNS is set, so this could be used, am I right ?

Well I guess it isn't need anymore, since your point it should be allways

Hmm I don't think that you are right. What you are talking of is the following
from /etc/ppp/ip-down:
awk '{if(!/nameserver .* # ppp temp entry.*/) print $0}' > /etc/resolv.conf
That means that all lines "nameserver ... # ppp temp entry" are
deleted. The rule is not applied to a line there only "# ppp temp entry" is
in. That means the DNS are written in /etc/resolv.conf if # ppp temp entry is
in /etc/resolv.conf

Try writing a line
# ppp temp entry
in /etc/resolv.conf . Then ip-up should write the dynamic nameserver in
/etc/resolv.conf

Well I must admit that under 9.1 I doesn't get written the temporary DNS to
/etc/resolv.conf . But under 9.2b1 it is working as explained above.
If you wish I can fully pots ip-up /ip-down and explain what I think what
happens.

Well nothing to discuss here. pppd running as root != pppd running by root The only way to dial up for user is to use peer scripts and having pppd setuid root. This way pppd can be started by user, since pppd call is not a priviliged option. :) Steffen

What I mean is the following (man pppd): As indicated above, some security-sensitive options are privileged, which means that they may not be used by an ordinary non-privileged user running a setuid-root pppd, either on the command line, in the user's ~/.ppprc file, or in an options file read using the file option. Privileged options may be used in /etc/ppp/options file or in an options file read using the call option. If pppd is being run by the root user, privileged options can be used without restriction. If pppd is setuid root it has access as if it is root, but it is not run as if root has started it. Steffen

Hmmm Your complain is that for modem use only kppp works ? If drakconnect sets this entry normally in /etc/resolv.conf and doesn't do that for modem since it is supposed to work with kppp it is sure a bug.

I would also add something to replace if-up.local
[ -x /etc/ppp/ip-up.local ] && /etc/ppp/ip-up.local "$@"
replaced by
if [ -d /etc/ppp/ifup-ppp.d -a -x /usr/bin/run-parts ];
then
/usr/bin/run-parts --arg "$@" /etc/ppp/ipup.d/
fi
then just drop a script to call /etc/ppp/ipup.local in
/etc/ppp/ipup-ppp.d, for backward compatibility.
the same applis for ipdown.local .
This would also mean we can remove the piece of code to flush sendmail
queue, and put it in a separate script, to be cleaner.
the second problem i see is that each file dropped in
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup.d/, are not executed with pppd.
to give a small example ( and the only one i see ), wshaperx does not
work out of the box, on a adsl connection.
it seems that this line :
[ -f /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-${LOGDEVICE} ] &&
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-post ifcfg-${LOGDEVICE}
never call ifup-post, because $LOGDEVICE is always unset.
at least for adsl and RTC connection. I know that it also handle ppp
connection for Isdn and maybe for tunnel, so this line is maybe for
this kind of connection.
removing this line and dropping a script in /etc/ppp/ipup.d/ could be a
solution.
I think this solution can be more flexible than the current one.
did i forget someting ?
is it possible to replace the script in the current package ?

Well, today I managed to get my Radeon 9xxx working w/ Mandrake 9.2 beta 2! Now, when I say "working" , I mean with high performance OpenGL support using the FireGL drivers. The issue has long been ATi not releasing drivers for Xfree86 4.3.0, but Schneider Digital has Xfree86 4.3.0 drivers: http://www.schneider-digital.de/html/download_ati.html For most people these drivers work great, unless ... you have a KT400 chipset. With the KT400 chipset, you'll continually get errors when X starts up stating "unable to determine aperture size". Anyways, after some digging around on google, I found this site: http://nifelheim.dyndns.org/~cocidius/ This site contains a patch for that ATi driver, and it works quite well as long as you follow the simple steps closely. Summary of files I used: GLX1_LINUX_X4.3.ZIP (this extracts into an RPM,and a README) fglrx-glc22-4.2.0-2.5.1.i586-kt400agp3.patch My hardware: Athlon XP 1800+ 512 MB DDR PC333 ATI Radeon 9500 ECS L7VTA mainboard (KT400 chipset) I'm off to benchmark UT2K3 now. :-) -- Nicholas Bolibruch - afxgrin Public Key - http://www.afxgrin.com/my_key.txt signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

Requiring the user has shell access. Denis was prohibited from doing anything that would require shell access. Of course, maybe someone else at Mandrakesoft could have contributed to solving the problem in a more comprehensive way (including CVS etc), but maybe first they can start by making CVS for commercial packages spec files accessible to some people. > That it is also later checked by distriblint ? distriblint didn't exist then, and anyone who mirrors all the club suorces is free to run dstriblint, if they are prepared for retaliation from packagers who get enough spam as it is ...

[Cooker] Interesting GNOME-vs-KDE UI comment
http://newsforge.com/article.pl?sid=03/08/13/1424212 Siemens found KDE to be more "Windows-like" than Gnome, but that lead to problems when non-technical users expected a more Windows-like experience. Gnome, particularly Ximian's version, was "different enough" to set user expectations that the experience would be less like Windows, which led to fewer adoption problems. /ME wonders if a "make this desktop look seriously different" wizard ought to be dropped into the pipeline.

[Cooker] Cooker installation report (not good)
Hi 1) Installing with Grub on a dedicated /boot partition does not work (cannot boot) Installing with Lilo (graphical) on the same dedicated /boot works perfectly fine 2) Supermount is sloo. plus every ~5s it feels the need to access the floppy drive... also only root has access to the floppy... I wish supermount was dropped from the distro. It's never been working properly on any machines I've installed Mandrake (and this goes back several distro releases). Anyway that's always the 1st thing I get rid of after installing Mandrake... 3) Missing KDE programs (eg Konsole) 4) From the MDK login manager, I cannot reboot... only halt the machine I'm not gonna start again with the login manager and it has been discussed before I believe but why not use a properly themed GDM or KDM?!?! 5) In KDE, starting Kate for the 1st time shows only a small window and the "show terminal" is ticked by default. Why? It's an editor. 6) Mandrake from lilo prompt to MDK login manager (110 seconds) from MDK login manager to KDE (fully logged) ( 20 seconds) Gentoo from Grub prompt to GDM login manager ( 63 seconds) from GDM login manager to KDE (fully logged) ( 16 seconds) Measured on the same box (dual P3 733MHz, 512Mb Ram, HDs with similar perf according to hdparm) 7) Trying to format my USB HD (6Gb) using: "mkfs.vfat -v -c -F 32 /dev/sda" I get: Aug 16 11:04:50 wallaby kernel: MSDOS FS: Using codepage 850 Aug 16 11:04:50 wallaby kernel: MSDOS FS: IO charset iso8859-15 Aug 16 11:04:50 wallaby kernel: FAT: bogus logical sector size 41488 Aug 16 11:04:50 wallaby kernel: VFS: Can't find a valid FAT filesystem on dev 08:01.

The problem is that the person who uploaded them (fafane) seems to not actually test installation via urpmi.

The reason I asked was because Stefan did see his nForce2 system drop out of dma under heavy load, and it newer recovered correctly, the problem with that is that I'm not able to reproduce the bug, so I wondered if you had the same problem.. Now on with the questions... Do you use acpi=on or acpi=off? Have you tried noapic? Does your m/b have any other integrated nic? is it supported, and if so does it behave the same way? Thomas

Not practical. Besides, I use GNOME. Can you check and see if the problem is linked directly to network transfers, as it seems to be for me ATM?

So far the only advice on lkml was to disable all framebuffer drivers except one you are actually using. I have CONFIG_FB=y CONFIG_FB_VESA=y CONFIG_VIDEO_SELECT=y and run framebuffer just fine.

At the very least please generate it using TESTING_MODPROBE_CONF=/etc/modules.conf generate-modprobe,conf >> /etc/modprobe.conf and recreate initrd. If you get current modul-init-tools from http://supermount-ng.sf.net/mdk-25/ you can skip TESTING_MODPROBE_CONF - it does the right thing. Now I would be _very_ intersted to know why it did not create modprobe.conf. Have you updated or installed module-init-tools? It is going to be a problem. So what people think if I change spec from if new install generate modprobe conf to if modprobe.conf is empty generate modprobe.conf ??? It seems that current case more prblems than it helps ...
[Cooker] 2.6.0-0.test3.1mdk-1-1mdk.i586 trouble
Hi,
I have few troubles with
kernel-2.6.0-0.test3.1mdk-1-1mdk.i586.rpm
It doesn't reconize my network card
and maybe because of that I have no
entries in netstat -rn
Not even localhost?
When I load it manually with modprobe
I can see it in # lsmod but when I try
/etc/init.d/network start or restart and
/etc/init.d/internet start or restart
Still doesn't work?
I have done that # generate-modprobe.conf >
/etc/modprobe.conf
It looks like:
cat /etc/modprobe.conf
alias eth0 8139too
alias sound-slot-0 via82cxxx_audio
alias ieee1394-controller ohci1394
install snd-via82xx /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd-via82xx && {
/sbin/modprobe snd-pcm-oss; /bin/true; }
install usb-interface /sbin/modprobe usb-uhci; /bin/true
remove snd-via82xx { /sbin/modprobe -r snd-pcm-oss; };
Does this /etc/rc.local bother 2.6?
I have in /etc/rc.local few lines for 2.4
touch /var/lock/subsys/local
/sbin/modprobe ac
/sbin/modprobe battery
/sbin/modprobe button
/sbin/modprobe evdev
Then some trouble with my mice also, when I boot
it reconize my mice well in ps/aux which is diffrent
than with 2.4 kernel but after I reboot both of my mice
are gone?
First mouse is this:
i8042.c: Detected active multiplexing controller, rev 1.1.
serio: i8042 AUX0 port at 0x60,0x64 irq 12
serio: i8042 AUX1 port at 0x60,0x64 irq 12

serio: i8042 AUX3 port at 0x60,0x64 irq 12
This is what it says about sound cards:
Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 0.9.4 (Mon Jun 09
12:01:18 2003 UTC). ALSA device list:
No soundcards found.
There is a soundcard but nevermind about that I hate noise :)
Second mouse is here:
hid 1-1:0: usb_device_probe - got id
input: USB HID v1.10 Mouse [Logitech USB-PS/2 Optical Mouse] on
usb-:00:11.2-1 hub 1-0:0: port 2, status 100, change 3, 12 Mb/s
hub 1-0:0: port 2 enable change, status 100
hub 3-0:0: port 1, status 100, change 3, 12 Mb/s
hub 3-0:0: port 2, status 100, change 3, 12 Mb/s
Both disappear when I reboot?
Otherwise this kernel-2.6.0-0.test3.1mdk-1-1mdk.i586.rpm
works like a dream, many great new features
like devfs. Also first time I saw full acpi tables and they were
great :)
I try to compile one myself but it refused to make initrd.img
with # make install or /sbin/initrd
despite of mkinitrd-3.4.43-7mdk?
Any help would greatly apreciated :)
Cheers
