[Cooker] spacing in gnome-terminal
Hello everyone, in the update to the gnome 2.1.x libraries, gnome-terminal acquired an increased inter-line spacing so the area taken by a terminal set for 80x24 is now greatly increased. I imagine this is due to changes in the transition from zvt to vte (or vice-versa). Since this spacing is not due to font selection, it's not under user control. Is this mandrake, gnome or my setup? thanks, adrian
[Cooker] IDE CD recorder problem in 8.2betas
Hey everyone, I'm trying to get an ide cdrecorder working. The model is currently recognized as the main cdrom. Harddrake says: Vendor: Unknown Model: AOPEN CD-RW CRW2440 Device: /dev/hdb Bus Type: ATAPI/IDE I realize that I need to use ide-scsi. When I do a insmod ide-scsi, the module is inserted correctly. However, cdrecord gives: [root@tsetse soft]# cdrecord -scanbus Cdrecord 1.11a15 (i586-mandrake-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2001 Jörg Schilling cdrecord: No such file or directory. Cannot open '/dev/pg*'. Cannot open SCSI driver. cdrecord: For possible targets try 'cdrecord -scanbus'. Make sure you are root. [root@tsetse soft]# What is the /dev/pg*? what package would it be in? I've tried appending various flags to the kernel as suggested in the howto's but that did not help.

Re: [Cooker] Sound problems in 8.2betas
Hey everyone, I have the identical problem with beta2. I was hoping some fix would be posted. I've read everything I could on sound issues but don't understand how to proceed. Things look all right but xmms doesn't play any sound. To get rid of devfs, I have to rebuild the kernel? is a kernel without devfs unable to do certain things? Here's what I could figure you might want. Hardware is a home buit box: AMD K6-II 550Mhz ATX ASUS P5A motherboard AOpen sound card ymfpci chip.
