Re: [Cooker] Bad performance with supermount and usbstick
-Original Message- So, here are the results from my test. Exercise was to copy the kernel rpm from media to hd using dd. First with CD-ROM (Toshiba FireWire DVD-ROM): Direct mount: 2327 KB/sec 6%CPU Supermount:1321 KB/sec 9%CPU 43% performance regression Now with Lexar USB stick: Direct mount: 731 KB/sec 2%CPU Supermount:24 KB/sec 42%CPU 97% performance regression and cpu usage jumps up by 40 percent :-( Oh :( I think I know what happens but it will be pretty hard to fix at least while keeping all functionality. Slightly offtopic. Do you have problems with media change detection on USB stick? I had report (and verified) that when you unplug stick, change contents on otehr system and plug back again supermount does not detect media change and does not remount it. I.e. new contents or changed contents is not visible. This is because sd skips media change check unless device is removable. -andrey

Nope, that is working fine here. Other problem is when I connect two
different usb sticks one after the other. Plugging in the first one
creates /dev/{sda,sda1}. After removing it and plugging in another stick
/dev/{sdb,sdb1} are created and mount point is /mnt/removable2.
Doing a rmmod usb-storage before inserting the second stick fixes that.
But that's not a supermount issue as it also happens with direct mount.

Surely a buildrequires error would make it work, or not, for all installs, no? In my october 31st tests it occured with 9.2 and cooker both with the rpm provided in the distribution and those provided by florin. I'm using nss_ldap-207-2mdk here on a workstation and a laptop and I don't see the errors you describe with dbopen and getent. Just tried it on both and re-read your message, but I'm still confused. The telling test is ldd -r /lib/libnss_ldap-2.3.2.so|grep undefined If this is a buildrequires problem, and nss_ldap is broken, then shouldn't it be broken *everywhere*? Why would you get the dbopen errors and I don't? As Luca Berra explained, this is because symbol resolution is in lazy mode, and your ldap.conf file does not trigger the use of the dbopen call. Ohhh... wait a sec. Your cert7.db file is what is causing the problem? It probably triggers the problem, does not cause it :-) If yes, and it's verified that it works, then I'll build packages to put into updates. I don't use a db here and really have no clue how to make a db file to test this, so unless you can give me a quick test howto kinda thing, I have to rely on your testing results to put it through. Originally my cert7.db file was copied from ~/.netscape/cert7.db (probably created by netscape 4.78). Netscape 7 also used that file; it appears that now the latest mozilla uses a file cert8.db (~/.mozilla/user/xyhq33vs.slt/cert8.db), I haven't tried to use that yet. In my case cert7.db contains the certificate of the Certificate Authority that signed the LDAP server's certificate. This is used to allow ldaps (SSL) connections to the LDAP server.

Compiling with -DRFC2307BIS adds rfc2307bis support, which at the
moment just gets you support for groups with distinguished name
members (instead of login names). A posixGroup can thus have the
both memberUid and uniqueMember attributes.

which version of ldap are you speaking about?
207 should exibit the problem only if it finds an
uniqueMember in the cn=...,ou=Group,dc=...,dc=..
211 would exibit the problem immediatly (independent of sslpath)
triggering factor was the directive ldap_version 3 but Buchan
Milne's ldap.conf had that line as well as a nss_base_group directive

So I am still inclined to think that sslpath /etc/ssl/certs/cert7.db

It is not safe. Although opinions vary. I wouldn't enable it on a multi-user machine, but kernel-mm is not meant for such use. I think, but it is really Juan/Nicolas who should do it, that the names and functions of 2.6 kernels need a rethinking. Something along the lines of: kernel-desktop - up, 4GB - smp/686, 4 GB - smp/athlon, 4 GB I assume performance hit of 4 GB is not so bad. I am also wondering how bad it would be to use an smp for up machines. Anyone has benchmarks? kernel-server - up, 4 GB - smp/p3, 64 GB - smp/athlon, 64 GB Perhaps more? Security can be in kernel-server via LIDS so i think kernel-secure via grsec is obsolete (aside from that, many security minded people will not use 2.6 for at least I year yet). kernel-desktop can have all the preempt stuff and other things (setpcap?) you do not want to have on your server. d.

Use separate build tree approach and ship single kernel sources that point to different kernel build trees that are distributed as separate packages.

I personally do not like removing it (it gives extra safety); but if it the only option so far I would better turn it off and let people test kernel. - take approach 3. We need to teach users how to use 2.6 kbuild anyway, there is quite a bit of jump, so we may teach them how to use separate build tree at the same time. Option 4 looks the best long-term solution (and useful to others too). if you manage to convince kbuild maintainers to supply makefile part I promise to add compressed modules support to modpost. It is not as hard (on the verge of being trivial :) -andrey
Re: [Cooker] Re: [CHRPM] urpmi-4.4-42mdk
Ainsi parlait Andrey Borzenkov : Guillaume Rousse [EMAIL PROTECTED] 4.4-42mdk - added bash-completion - spec cleanup - bziped additional sources hey, if we start to ship completion functions with packages what about Zsh? Well, i don't know if situation is the same. bash is maintained independently from bash-completion project, wich is a collection of shell function for completing common unix command. So bash-completion is package separatly from bash itself first, from commands it provide completion to also. It often turns into versioning nightmare: see how different bash version are handled into bash-completion, for instance. My own point is that commands that are mandrake specific (urpmi, rpmmon, net-profile, etc...) are not supposed to be installed differently that from mandrake packages, so it is better to ship them this way, so as to solve this versioning issue first, than contribute them to distribution-independant bash-completion project. On the other hands, completion for other tools (lilo, freeciv, dsniff, to cite a few from my own) are better handled at bash-completion project itself, so as to be usable for other distributions also. In ideal world, they should even get managed by upstream developpers. How does that translate to zsh ? BTW, feel free to use the cached package list (/var/lib/urpmi/names.*) fpons implemented at my demand to speed up zsh completion also fro urpmi. -- Murphy's Law will go into effect at the beginning of an evaluation. -- Murphy's Laws of Teaching n18

The LM9.1 errata page has a link for LM9.0 errata. The LM9.0 errata page has a link for LM8.2 errata. The LM8.2 errata page has a link for LM8.1 errata. Whats the use of these hierarchical and cumbersome arrangement ? Why not have one http://www.mandrakelinux.com/en/errata.php3 page which will list these 5 current links: Mandrake 9.2 Errata http://www.mandrakelinux.com/en/92errata.php3 Mandrake 9.1 Errata http://www.mandrakelinux.com/en/91errata.php3 Mandrake 9.0 Errata http://www.mandrakelinux.com/en/90errata.php3 Mandrake 8.2 Errata http://www.mandrakelinux.com/en/82errata.php3 Mandrake 8.1 Errata http://www.mandrakelinux.com/en/81errata.php3 I am sure you realize that a badly organized and typo-ridden errata will only make things worse.
[Cooker] urpmi noarch source
Hi, Since cooker has been defrosted, perhaps this is the right moment to discuss putting the .noarch.rpm packages into a seperate (shared) location. This is already being done at PLF, see: ftp://ftp.easynet.fr/plf/mandrake/cooker With the recent upload of a number of rather large noarch.rpm packages: $ ls -Sl /mirrors/contrib/i586/ | less total 2927844 *-rw-rw-r--1 stefan build136673076 Nov 5 16:09 uqm-data-0.3-1mdk.noarch.rpm* *-rw-rw-r--1 stefan build122147932 Nov 5 16:09 vegastrike-data-0.4.1-1mdk.noarch.rpm* -rw-rw-r--1 stefan build77352529 Oct 28 19:46 flightgear-0.9.3-1mdk.i586.rpm *-rw-rw-r--1 stefan build67695745 Mar 11 2003 tetex-cmsuper-0.3.3-2mdk.noarch.rpm* -rw-rw-r--1 stefan build60821073 Feb 28 2003 ncbi-tools-6.1-1mdk.i586.rpm -rw-rw-r--1 stefan build56017805 Oct 28 01:00 freedroidRPG-0.9.9-1mdk.i586.rpm *-rw-rw-r--1 stefan build54203818 Nov 5 16:09 vegastrike-data-music-0.3.1-1mdk.noarch.rpm * it's becoming evident that a lot of bandwidth and space is being wasted on the mirrors. Of the (7) packages in contrib above 50Mb, 4 of them are noarch.rpm's. I'll bet a case of Grolsch that the other ones can also be split up into (large) noarch.rpm and (smaller) arch.rpm packages. How did PLF do it? How is it working there (comments please!)? Can this be implemented for cooker (and the 10.0 release)? regards, Stefan van der Eijk smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature

Sorry, we tried many configurations to no avail. :-( i.e. it still works. Among others things, tried with an xfs /boot, reiserfs /, ext3 /home, it works. Tried a 2 disks configuration: first disk with some ntfs garbage, /home in ext3, second disk with the / system et al. Unfortunately, they all worked. If you could please test -24mdk and report if you get some inconsistent partition table error message when initting disks, that would help. -24mdk still fails on reiserfs too. No error message about partition tables that I can see. -- Quel Qun [EMAIL PROTECTED]
