I have found the same thing with Simplified Chinese, and in 9.1 it was pretty much broken.

And so far I didn't get any of the metalic sounds like with Mandrake version of ALSA. For the last couple of days I'm using ALSA CVS drivers and didn't get any metalic sound so far. So it looks like there is some problem in Mandrake packages :( I'll continue testing with CVS version and listen carefully if I get any problem.

[Cooker] Promise TX2000
I was wondering if anyone is working on getting Mdk to install on these guys?

Re: [Cooker] [Bug 5465] [gcompris] New: Additional package is chosen during install
Yes you can do that. gcompris uses plugins so you can create a package
with the chess board that contains:
%{prefix}/share/gcompris/boards/boardicons/chess*
%{prefix}/share/gcompris/boards/chess*.xml
%{prefix}/share/gcompris/boars/chess/*
%{prefix}/lib/gcompris/libchess*
And put a dependancy to gnuchess on this package instead of gcompris.
gcompris will not complain nor display the chess board icon if the
package is not there.

Based on past experience, 9.2 will be released on schedule on 20th of September even when it doesn't install for some people who have reported serious issues for their particular hardware. I suppose this is a company's way of making compromises :-( > I'm wondering because the end of the month is only 2+ weeks away and > only 3 of the bugs I reported have been fixed (some major showstoppers > have not and no-one seems to be wanting more info).

Probably there will be lots of "security" updates and bugfixes announced in the first 2-3 months after the release of 9.2. Which is probably better than not providing them at all ;-) Anyway, I share your concerns, but they are/will be ignored completely by the Mandrake development process. Despite this, positive reviews of mandrake keep coming and customers seem to be satisfied (in general, AFAIK). If you cannot stand this way of working, use Red Hat, Suse, or even Debian. They have slightly less bleeding edge releases ;-) Cheers Simon PS, if I sound cynical, I am! But Mandrake still rules the desktop for me. I've learnt to live with all the cuts and bruises Mandrake's products cause me, but look at all my cool scars!

Well, it we wait until everyone's hardware is supported, the whole distribution is likely to be 3 months behind everyone else's. Some hardware issues can be fixed post-release (as Thomas proved). If you really want to have your hardware supported, and no-one has managed to yet, jump in, test patches, report the results, maybe Thomas will be able to merge a patch you report as working, and then push it upstream. > I suppose this is a company's > way of making compromises :-( Not only the company.

Wow, 3 bugs in about 4000 in this release cycle! Maybe: 1)Your bug report didn't indicate the seriousness 2)Wasn't easy enough to reproduce (hardware problems are always difficult) 3)Duplicates. Some bug reports get missed, and since you haven't provided your bug numbers, it's impossible for anyone to review them. > Furthermore, >>everybody knows that OpenOffice 1.1 is only 2-3 weeks away, it would be >>a real shame to ship 9.2 with 1.1RCx and then get users to download >>100Mb+ of software to get the final version (I can't see any major >>corporation willing to do that - out of the box is very important) > > > openoffice 1.1 will be in 9.2, whether it's rc3/rc4 or final depends on how > soon they are released. BTW, apparently RC4 will be identical to final unless a major bug is found in the next few days. 1.1 final should be out next week. Gwenole would not have had time to build RC4 for the 9.2RC2 ISO, which is why it had RC3 with about 6 patches from IZ.

Wow, thanks for the confidence in those people who maintain software in the distro but aren't employed by Mandrakesoft. This *is* the development process, and many people (including those at Mandrakesoft) share some of your concerns. > Despite this, positive reviews of mandrake > keep coming and customers seem to be satisfied (in general, AFAIK). If you > cannot stand this way of working, use Red Hat, Suse, or even Debian. They > have slightly less bleeding edge releases ;-) Right. RH9 with a broken glibc (couldn't handle large numbers of groups, was only fixed about 2 months after their release), RH8 was changing between cvs snapshots of glibc2.3 and patched glibc2.2 throughout their beta series, samba-3 only in RH's current beta (Mandrake 9.2 will default to 2.2.x but have 3 available). Of course, Debian users can choose between samba-2.2.3a (ancient, missing many features and bugfixes) and samba-3.0.0beta at present (a few Debian users on our LUG had problems due to Debian including samba3 way too early). > PS, if I sound cynical, I am!

Well, the situation is like this: 1) In my first message about that I specified clearly that my internal network was using 10.0.0.0/8 and the interface parameters was givenby DHCP. 2) I'm not dissing lisa without reason, if a program ( that is installed by default, BTW) start fast sweep-pinging and filling the default arp table that has only 1024 entryes by default ( that means every network with a mask less then /22 is exposed) conducting to basicly cutting the network access to that machine. it has SERIOUS problems IMHO. 3) Now on a practical side, either lisa will have to allow the temporary arp entryes some time to expire by reducing the stroke of ping sweep or it has to check the arp table and if is filled over a certain percent to postpone the next burst of pings.

OK, but this should not have bearing on a router device (such as a Linksys), since such a device should not be configured (except under exceptional circumstances) for anything larger than /24. It should also not die if a machine inside it's network pings all the hosts on the network (otherwise it is already vulnerable to a DOS, and would be killed by something like blaster as well ...). > 3) Now on a practical side, either lisa will have to allow the > temporary arp entryes some time to expire by reducing the stroke of ping > sweep or it has to check the arp table and if is filled over a certain > percent to postpone the next burst of pings. It seems lisa does not respect some of the settings the documentation claims it supports (such as MaxPingsAtOnce). But I will adjust the script to not use pings by default anymore (it seems to work well enough now - much better than on 9.1 - using only nmblookup, but users will not see machines that run only ssh or ftp and not an SMB server). To the original poster, if you have lisa installed, you can see if lisa has any effect by running 'service lisa stop' twice, and then unplugging and replugging the router. If it occurs again (without rebooting the Mandrake box), then it's not lisa.

[Cooker] Final in Septembre???
Hi all, Quick question for all of you guys: will Mandrakesoft release 9.2 even if it is not ready??? i.e. is Mandrakesoft desperate to get a version out before the end of Septembre or is there any chance for a RC3 ?? i.e. does management or development rule Mandrakesoft??? I'm wondering because the end of the month is only 2+ weeks away and only 3 of the bugs I reported have been fixed (some major showstoppers have not and no-one seems to be wanting more info). Furthermore, everybody knows that OpenOffice 1.1 is only 2-3 weeks away, it would be a real shame to ship 9.2 with 1.1RCx and then get users to download 100Mb+ of software to get the final version (I can't see any major corporation willing to do that - out of the box is very important) Cheers, Emmanuel

So before I reply specifically to some points, I want to explicitly say THANK YOU to all who contribute to Mandrake and Linux in advance, since that is something that I imply by using Mandrake (although you couldn't have known that from my face, which you didn't see ;-) On Thu, Sep 11, 2003 at 01:23:35PM +0200, Buchan Milne wrote: > Simon Oosthoek wrote: > > > > Based on past experience, 9.2 will be released on schedule on 20th of > > September even when it doesn't install for some people who have reported > > serious issues for their particular hardware. > > Well, it we wait until everyone's hardware is supported, the whole > distribution is likely to be 3 months behind everyone else's.

I would prefer a longer freeze period, but I'm not the release manager.

Ok, that didn't come out right, I'm sorry! I think I meant that a vague statement of a user that something "doesn't work" is not enough to stop a release. But I probably thought it obvious and forgot to mention it... > > PS, if I sound cynical, I am! > > And some of your statements seem unfounded ... well, maybe I forgot to qualify them, but the cynical bit comes from the difference in priority for me versus the Mandrake development process. > > But Mandrake still rules the desktop for me. > > I've learnt to live with all the cuts and bruises Mandrake's products > cause > > me, but look at all my cool scars! > > I get fewer scars on Mandrake that the other distros I have run in > production ... and I get features most other distros don't even know about. I only have a few Debian systems, all the other machines I manage are Mandrake 9.1 or Solaris. At work I setup a system with Linux servers (Mandrake/Debian) and Mandrake 9.1 desktops (about 16!) and a few Windows clients. The only real problems I have are with Printing (unstable with CUPS and Linux clients) and with Evolution, due to gconf's lock problems over NFS. Lately I noticed some problems with /var partitions filling up with logfiles, because they filled faster than logrotate rotates. Overal, Mandrake suites me, mostly because of the packaging with urpmi. Hopefully, this puts my earlier e-mail into perspective... I'm only trying to help! Cheers Simon

It is the same for other programs also. There is the same problem with Konsole, Konqueror, Licq, etc. The same phenomenon happens with user root also. I've checked in XFree logs and i saw nothing particular. In what logfile should i check about timeouts. I'm willing to send it to you if necessary. I wonder if the problem is not connected to networks problem. I've a Freebox (ADSL modem used in France by the Free ISP) and when it is broken (which happens quite often sadly), everything also becomes sluggish and seems to wait something until there is a timeout.

Re: [Cooker] Final in Septembre???
I agree with you but I find it so frustrating that such a good distro misses being a great distro on every releases. I have tried Redhat and Debian but for some reason I always come back to Mandrake. To be fair, I don't hink that Mandrake is bleeding edge anymore (i.e. compare MDK9.1 and RH9, very few differences) at least not as much as it used to be in the old days (when Mandrakesoft was run like a proper Linux company (i.e. release software when it's ready)). Let's not forget that MDK was forked from RH to create a viable desktop distro but if you look at the desktop improvements between 9 and 9.2, they are only "minor" (i.e. they have not achieve anything that other distros haven't). I do hope that 10 will be the best ever.

Based on past experience, 9.2 will be released on schedule on 20th of September even when it doesn't install for some people who have reported serious issues for their particular hardware. I suppose this is a company's way of making compromises :-( I'm wondering because the end of the month is only 2+ weeks away and only 3 of the bugs I reported have been fixed (some major showstoppers have not and no-one seems to be wanting more info). Furthermore, everybody knows that OpenOffice 1.1 is only 2-3 weeks away, it would be a real shame to ship 9.2 with 1.1RCx and then get users to download 100Mb+ of software to get the final version (I can't see any major corporation willing to do that - out of the box is very important) openoffice 1.1 will be in 9.2, whether it's rc3/rc4 or final depends on how soon they are released. Probably there will be lots of "security" updates and bugfixes announced in the first 2-3 months after the release of 9.2. Which is probably better than not providing them at all ;-) Anyway, I share your concerns, but they are/will be ignored completely by the Mandrake development process. Despite this, positive reviews of mandrake keep coming and customers seem to be satisfied (in general, AFAIK). If you cannot stand this way of working, use Red Hat, Suse, or even Debian. They have slightly less bleeding edge releases ;-) Cheers Simon PS, if I sound cynical, I am! But Mandrake still rules the desktop for me. I've learnt to live with all the cuts and bruises Mandrake's products cause me, but look at all my cool scars!

This is still happening in 9.2-RC2 Also, When installing entirely in Chinese, my locale was all zh_CN When installing in English as the primary language, and with Chinese (Both traditional and simplified), as well as Japanese and Korean support, my locale was all en_US.UTF-8 After using localedrake to change my locale to simplified chinese (china), everything came out in zh_CN.UTF-8 chinput works, thanks to your (modified) fix.

[Cooker] RC2 no updates for testing
I installed RC2, and tried the new updated packages option at the end of the installation. It did not ask me anything, and just went on to "mission completed"... I think there may be 2 problems here: one is that there is no test for whethere there ae updates, and second that there possibly is nothing that we can test on, no test packages to see if this works. I have earlier written that I think it wuld be good if normal users already at installation time would be able to set up updating, and thus it is important that it works. It did not work in some instances in mdk 9.1 (read: I never got it to work...) I would like if there was at least a dummy package for upgrading, maybe just a new version indicating that the installation has done this . best regards Keld

Without doing something complicated, a lot of bugs are found in this release. I know that fixing bugs is irratting specially when you can't reproduce them well, but we are releasing a 9.2 version, not a 10.0 -> this should be stable as rock. Nowadays, comparing distributions is noted with : new packages availables, and no bugs found. the first is ok. Let's take another week more to debug.
