[Cooker] spacing in gnome-terminal

2002-12-10 Thread Adrian Custer
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

2002-03-11 Thread Adrian Custer

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.

Do I have to recompile the kernel? Thanks for any tips,

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.
