[Cooker] Mozilla-1.5-0.92mdk Stability
I mentioned in an earlier thread that I was having problems with the Mozilla-1.5-0.92mdk placed in the MandrakeClub archive, in particular, that pressing the Mail icon on the Browser Status Bar (down at the bottom left-hand corner) quite often resulted in an unceremonious closedown of all Mozilla windows. This bug had been *very* noticeable with Chip Cuccio's first offering of Mozilla-1.5 on his NORLUG archive (I can't speak for the second), was sporadically present with Buchan Milne / Fred Crozat's MandrakeClub RPM and was absent (as far as I can tell) from Scott Bolander's XFT-enabled tarball. About:buildconfig shows all the variants to have really quite different compiler and configuration switches and, as a non-Mozzy guru, it's a little difficult for me to pin down whether this is an error/feature in Mozilla or its build environment. A first local rebuild on a clean MDK 9.2 with current updates produced identical behaviour. So far, so good! However, in looking for likely clues in Buchan's configuration, my eye was caught by the pthread stuff: the presence of -pthread in the compiler option list, and presence of --without-system-nspr and absence of --with-pthreads in the configure arguments. Hmmm ... thinks ... popped the --with-pthreads into the spec file ... set the rebuild going ... went to bed. Today (OK, OK, it's not the fastest of Athlons), the bunch of RPMS were waiting for me, a quick rpm -Fvh and bingo - it now seems stable. Could you give the addition a whirl next time you rebuild (for mandrakeclub or cooker). Perhaps the list can comment if the bad bits pop up elsewhere! On a minor issue, I did notice that the mozilla-irc rpm doesn't put a Mozilla Chat item in the menu. Is this deliberate? Many thanks good people! David

Many people asked questions both after the lecture and throughout the rest of the day. It seems that there is a definite desire for people to be able to easily make their own specialized live CD's by themselves. That's the whole point of mklivecd. I have made 3 different live CDs, none of which would be useful to a wide audience (one is only useful internally for running simulations on machines that *have* to run only Windows during work hours, but can be booted off the liveCD after hours to have a crude computing cluster for some proprietary 1d CFD software), but which really provide real-world functionality. I have put up the slides from the presentation, but they do not depict WHAT I said, only an outline of the topic matter. http://groundstate.ca/freechem-pres.pdf You can now remove your con #3 local printing is tricky, since this seems to be fixed in cvs (except for some issue with the GNOME menus being in /var/lib AND HAVING SPACES IN THE [EMAIL PROTECTED]). In my test, all you need to do is run printerdrake, and it should auto-detect any local printer and work without any intervention. NVIDIA support is apparently also there, we're looking at some bootsplash progress support, and I'm fighting with getting ide-scsi working correctly (which seems a bit tricky ...). One of the coolest ideas I got was from a guy who suggested that USB memory cards be used as the /home directory. This is a brilliant idea... as you could walk around with the liveCD, and your USB memory card, and you would essentially have your desktop in your pocket, that would run on almost any workstation anywhere, with your /home/.hidden files and everything. It would be cool if the liveCD startup script would automatically mount the USB memory card as /home if it was inserted before boot time, but as /mnt/usbram (or similar) if inserted after bootup. There is initial support for this in CVS, but since I misplaced my USB flash disk about a week ago I haven't been able to test it. I would personally like an encrpyted filesystem, and a tool to prepare such a filesystem. On the CD we use for simulation, I just have it set up for our LDAP server (I should test with _ldap._tcp SRV records to make it more generic), and have autofs starting at boot, and now any user can log into it and get their home directory via automounted NFS (with one extra step before creating the image - but direct mount support in autofs would remove the need for this). I'm planning on finishing freechem 1.0 (possibly to be renamed), and distributing it through the authors of the chemistry applications themselves. Then I plan on making an audio production liveCD, but I'm waiting for cooker to re-open first, so I can update jack, alsa-tools, and a few other things.

No problem, I accept full responsibility for them, but David is the only
one reporting issues with the package (only other compaints were due to
people installing 3rd-party plugins on their own and getting some things
wrong).
However, I made no changes to any configuration options (I just backed
out the patches that were integrated upstream and updated ipc for
enigmail), so you may still want to take note of the issue. I have
attached a diff to your latest mozilla spec file in case it is useful to
you.
However, I haven't really been able to reproduce this problem myself. I
did get a crash once, but that was when testing this, and it happened
about the 15th time I opened the mail window. I tried it another two
times, and got to 20 openings of the mail window using the icon before I
stopped.
So, I will take a look at this, but I don't think it's that serious.
David, do you get the same problem when you use CTRL-2 or
Window-MailNewsgroups ?
BTW, on my cooker box (which has been running 1.5-0.92mdk for a week), I
start mozilla with the mail component first, and usually use the
keyboard shortcuts for the window I want to open, instead of the icons.
But it has been extremely stable (only one crash and that was testing
the mail icon).
I have been running 1.5-0.91mdk on my 9.1 box at home for almost 2 weeks
now, also with no problems.

Buchan

I have assumed your interest as your name features extremely prominently (as apparent maintainer) in the rpm changelog. I appear to have strayed (by accident) into some internal Mandrake politics.

This would need some rpm changes, so that a package built on 9.2 would have an epoch of 92 and one build on 10.0 would have epoch 100. But this would be a problem with packages that already has an epoch, as you can use only integer numbers for the epoch tag. The problem of your naming is that you have to change it by hand.

I have been able to build a few isos on my own but I'm not really satisfied. I suppose that my main problem is that I don't understand conf files enough. I dont use the conf files at all. I grab the cooker at the time when it it is frozen for final pressing of the cd's. If you watch warly will tell you when the branch. then I copy the i586 tree myself. I add whatever i want onto my cd's from contribs, plf, the club, texstar, updates, misc, and my own custom made rpm's. I then run makecd with just the path to my i586 directory like so: i586/misc/MakeCD --isodir iso -a i586 this leaves me with all my cd's in iso which will be right next to the i586 dir. Now during the build whack the output. If anything is failing that you are unsure about either rebuild the package and fix it or if you dont care about that package then leave it alone. To get my cooker tree I use fmirror. I know I have seen many here talk about rsync but it simply does not interest me and fmirror more or less does the same thing. I use fmirror to weed out the packages I dont want like others do with rsync so I dont have to worry about even wasting my bandwidth on packages I won't usually use. If I ever need them they are just a download away. When I get done (it may take a few runs with makecd to get everything the way you want ) I have nice shiny new iso's. When you get it just the way you want then goto Mandrake/base and edit rpmsrate so that you get a higher chance of getting the rpm's installed during autoinstall that you want. For instance I add a few kde themes in there and audacity to the sound apps. Then I add bibletime to the kde apps. After this step then make one last set of cd's and burn them and you are set. Now whenever you need a new set of cd's jsut add the latest updates and anything else you want and run makecd again. One word to note here this will give you cd's that call themselves cooker download edition but it will package any rpm's you have included untill they are all packaged or rejected. In my case it was 5 cd's. With all of contribs, international, emacs and all the games that are normaly in main and without srpms you will get 9 cd's. -- -~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~- Brook Humphrey Mobile PC Medic, 420 1st, Cheney, WA 99004, 509-235-9107 http://www.webmedic.net, [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Holiness unto the Lord -~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-

It seems it is possible to build postfix with dynamic support for mysql/postgres/ldap, see the patch Debian uses: http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/p/postfix/postfix_2.0.16-2.diff.gz (or newer I guess).

Many thanks - I'll try feeding a subset of those into rpmrc. Sometimes I do wonder how many days of optimising rebuild == an adm64. Still, that route will have other problems in tow. Sigh ... My regular usage is to have 1 or 2 mozilla windows open with maybe 10 or 15 tabs per window. This I have running for possibly weeks. With the mandrake builds I get maybe 3 or 4 days max. That sounds like you're dispensing with xft and/or using Mozilla's own binaries. Fortunately (like OO.o) installation is very easy :-). yes I am and I tell you what I miss xft very much. Jaggy mozilla is no fun. I have also been playing with the custom builds of thunderbird and firebird from mozillazine. These are done by others in the community. They run very nice.

It seems that the bugzilla voting is broken :-(( It eventually took it for me..

So, I clicked the link to view the bug, clicked login, (opened up my file of username/password combos, verified my username and copied my pass to the clipboard,) entered my info and logged in, entered the bug number in the search box and clicked search, found the vote for this bug link and clicked it, entered my login info AGAIN and clicked, got the vote summary page and made the appropriate change, clicked submit, entered my login info AGAIN and submitted, got the error, backed up, entered my login info yet AGAIN!!! and submitted, THIS time it worked, displaying the vote summary with the vote for the new bug shown. The problem, I'm edu-guessing, is some interaction between my normally no-cookies (Konqueror) browser option, tho I have it set to take them from qa for bug reporting purposes, privoxy, which I have set to change cookies to session cookies, but that should only mean I have to log in once each session, NOT once per action as it seems I have to do, and the qa/bugzilla software/site. I have the same problem with the gnome bugzilla (which I use for reporting PAN bugs since I run its betas) as well, and had it b4 I started using privoxy, so it would seem to be a bugzilla/konqueror interaction problem. Cookies work fine at other sites, like my bank, for instance, supporting the bugzilla/konqueror interaction theory. It may be something to do with domain globalization issues re the cookie, with Konqueror rejecting requests for it from the global domain when it was the specific qa domain that set the cookie, or requests from the specific domain when it was set by the global, or some such, is my best guess.

Product: rpm-build Version: 4.2-20mdk Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: rpm-build AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This also applies to the current rpm version (4.2-21mdk), which isn't in the list.

BH I dont use the conf files at all. It looks like simplicity is the best way : BH then I copy the i586 tree myself. I add whatever i want onto my cd's from BH contribs, plf, the club, texstar, updates, misc, and my own custom made BH rpm's. I then run makecd with just the path to my i586 directory like so: BH i586/misc/MakeCD --isodir iso -a i586 I have just run a build process so hopefully everything will be ok. One thing : I have copied the contents of the first 3 cd to /home/test and replaced all the obsolete packages with the updated ones. it was a painful process to delete all of the old stuff so is the build script smart enough to leave out the old ones if someone just copies the updates over to RPMS dir ?

My trusty old TEAC 40x is the best out there :))) btw how come I have only 1,3 gigs of iso ? Download edition is about 2 gigs large. I used all of the rpm from first 3 cds. Who did build the original download isos anyway ? It would be nice if mandrake released an official howto on this subject. One last thing. Do you think that this would be possible : The perfect solution for me would be if i could build isos which are as close as the original but with all of the fixes and updates applied and the first iso with size of 700mb so I could fit in kernel-sorce on it. This way i would avoid all the hassle with original isos and when i give them to somebody they will get a perfect ml 9.2. Later on i could build 4th iso with packages that I need which are not in the main.

Re: [Cooker] Problems with 2.4.22-21mdk
JA Since upgrading to 2.4.22-21mdk from stock 9.2 kernel I have had cyrus-imapd JA stop multiple times, and require a database recovery before it would accept JA new mail. This was working fine for months on end with 9.1, and the JA 2.4.22.10mdk kernel with no problems. Are there any errors in the logs ? JA Anyone seen similar issues, or have any possible ideas what could be causing JA this? Maybe this has nothing to do with kernel, most probably the problem is with some other updated package. I had a similar issue a while ago with 8.2 but it turned out to be a problem with a bad memory.

Download edition is about 2 gigs large. I'm not sure here. if you got everything it will include them as long as there are no issues. I used all of the rpm from first 3 cds. Who did build the original download isos anyway ? It would be nice if mandrake released an official howto on this subject. One last thing. Do you think that this would be possible : The perfect solution for me would be if i could build isos which are as close as the original but with all of the fixes and updates applied and the first iso with size of 700mb so I could fit in kernel-sorce on it. This way i would avoid all the hassle with original isos and when i give them to somebody they will get a perfect ml 9.2. Later on i could build 4th iso with packages that I need which are not in the main. I think warly has been been playing with this some but makecd as of now I dont think will do this unless warly has changed things around in it. -- -~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~- Brook Humphrey Mobile PC Medic, 420 1st, Cheney, WA 99004, 509-235-9107 http://www.webmedic.net, [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Holiness unto the Lord -~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-~`'~-
[Cooker] Problems booting with ext3 for root partition
Hi, I have been following the cooker development on and off for some years now, and have not had any problems with the root partition as ext3 until around half a year ago. The boot message displayed is: EXT2-fs warning (device ide0(3,65)): ext2_read_super: mounting ext3 filesystem as ext2 This happens with e.g. kernels 2.4.18,2.4.20 and 2.4.22. Also, with an initrd RAM disk no kernels boot at all, the boot halt with a kernel panic, so I have to use the noinitrd option. The master boot record is located on another physical disk (/dev/hda), and I'm using lilo as boot loader. Checking the state with tune2fs -l /deb/hdb1 after boot shows that the filesystem state is not clean. However, booting from a CD and mounting the root partition either as ext3 or ext2, all is OK, the filesystem state is OK. I did even remove all journal file information, checked the partition, created a new journal file (and even tried the features filetype, sparse_super), rechecked again, but same result as before :( What's going on here?

It seems you're a bit ahead of the rest of us ... by about a day ... oops, sorry, it should be fixed now :) I should sleep a bit now ... -- Olivier Blin
[Cooker] test9.4mdk with ext3 as module
My mistake, it's a bug in kernel packaging. No depmod is done in %install, so mkinitrd find the first time an empty modules.desc file and can't guess ext3 depends on jbd ... It's finally fixed now, you can grab the test9.4mdk packages here: http://compil.mandrake.org/~blino/kernel-2.6/ If nothing wrong is reported about the package till Wednesday, it will go right in contrib. Next step is to add -mm1 patchset. -- Olivier Blin
Re[2]: [Cooker] Any idea about new 9.2 isos and Austin some questions.
BH I'm not sure here. if you got everything it will include them as long as there BH are no issues. I will run it again and log the output to a file. Maybe some useful clue will come up. Btw I changed 9.2.conf in the misc/doc/ dir. I have a feeling that it is being used by default ? BH I think warly has been been playing with this some but makecd as of now I dont BH think will do this unless warly has changed things around in it. If I can find the changelog i will let you know.
