Boot to init 3 and then use startx or Xtart.
Now when you log out of X you will be dropped back to init 3.
I have run into the same situation and though it does happen with other
cards it is more problematic with ATI.
For some reason if you boot to init 5 and then logout, shutting down dm
fails and thus the black screen and apparent lock-up.
Bypassing dm eliminates the problem.

For an upgrade installation the nv driver is used and IIRC XF86conf-4 so reflects that But Load 'glx' is not removed from the module section and it is this which causes X to fail. Since the nvidia drivers are only supplied through either the club or in the powerpack and are in no form supported by Mandrake but offered only because of user request it should be the users responsibility to make any adjust which are necessitated by the usage of said drivers.

Hi Clive, There is a workaround posted in the bugzilla entry [Bug 1471]. It solved the problem for me. The bug is very long, so below I have included the snippet with the work- around: --- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-02-23 20:24 --- While a bugfix is made, there is a way to manually correct this bug.

Are you using fixed or dynamic IP? As happens I do know what causes the problem on my system. /etc/resolv.conf is an empty file If edited and 'nameserver 192.168.0.1' is added Net access works. The same is accomplished by installing and running dhcpcd. To me the benefit of using dhcpcd is that I only need 1 pkg not the 4 installed by Network set-up/drakconnect.

It makes no difference. All are still installed on my machine, but none other than dhcpcd is needed. I can remove the others and still access the Net and test drakconnect with each release of drakxtools to see if any fix has been applied. But irregardless of what other pkgs it installs as long as I have dhcpcd installed and running I can access the Net. Drakconnect does not work with this type set-up, I stated so in my orig post and in previous as well as bugzilla reports, testing is the Only reason I would run it again.

[Cooker] RC2 and Networking
Same problem exist in RC2 as in RC1 and all Betas Home LAN 6 systems, 5 connecting to internet though gateway system via dhcp with each system needing a static IP. During clean RC installation/Networking, either automatic or if manually configured during Summary, all hardware component are detected and properly configured and the pkgs dhcp-common, dhcp-client, and tmdns are installed. The problem is that this Does Not properly set-up this type system. Once the new install is booted even though everything appears in order and drakconnect even tells you that your network is properly configured No Internet connection is possible. /etc/sysconfig/network NETWORK=yes /etc/host 127.0.0.1localhost You can start editing files galore if you aren't a Newbie, and even have a clue as to what files to even look for, or if you are a Newbie and this your first taste of Linux you could and might just say fuck-it and boot back to Windows where everything works. The solution is really quite simple. For this type of network connection you do not need dhcp-common. You do not need dhcp-client. You do not need tmdns. You Need dhcpd. Once installed you need only run # dhcpcd -d the system will be assigned a static IP address, in my case it is 192.168.0.6 for machine #6 on the chain. On subsequent boots dhcpcd will be auto started during boot. /etc/sysconfig/network and /etc/host will not be changed but a new config file will be present /etc/dhcpc/dhcpcd-eth0.info [EMAIL PROTECTED] charles]$ cat /etc/dhcpc/dhcpcd-eth0.info IPADDR=192.168.0.6 NETMASK=255.255.255.0 NETWORK=192.168.0.0 BROADCAST=192.168.0.255 GATEWAY=192.168.0.1 DNS=192.168.0.1 DHCPSID=192.168.0.1 DHCPGIADDR=0.0.0.0 DHCPSIADDR=192.168.0.1 DHCPCHADDR=00:50:2C:01:64:87 DHCPSHADDR=00:04:5A:5E:A0:85 DHCPSNAME='ICS ' LEASETIME=86400 RENEWALTIME=43200 REBINDTIME=75600 INTERFACE='eth0' CLASSID='Linux 2.4.21-0.11mdk i686' CLIENTID=00:50:2C:01:64:87 If the network configuration, this also applies to the stand alone drakconnect, is not going to be fixed to resolve this issue could there not at the least be an errata posted that addresses it.

[Cooker] Freeze or not to freeze
I thought we were in a version freeze except in the case of bug-fixes.
Yet today we have new versions of vte, links, and bluefish.
Are there special circumstances which apply to the above named pkgs?
I know the %changelog say "new release" but is not going from
bluefish-0.8-2mdk to bluefish-0.9-1mdk considered a version change?
I am not objecting to these upgrades being included just trying to
discern why it is allowable for them but not for others such as
xfce-3.8.18

eroaster-2.1.0-6mdk is no longer a viable rpm. Due to gnome-python and pygtk2 current rpm can no longer be installed and existing installation will give either python or bonobo errors. Current src will rebuild and install but program will give bonobo error. the eroaster 2.2.0 snapshot available from ftp://eclipt.uni-klu.ac.at/pub/projects/eroaster/snapshots/ will build, install, launch and most importantly work. The BuildRequires need to be changed to include new gnome-python and pygtk2 and exclude the old. Requires needs to include gnome-python-bonobo and to exclude the old.

[Cooker] RC1 and dhcp problems SOLVED!!!
My system are networked and all connect to the net via DHCP through a
windows box, short story but don't ask.
All systems on my home LAN, but 1 use, Linskys' nics and tulip driver.
The system I use to test the betas and today the RC1 has, with each,
been unable to connect to the Internet.
eth0 loads at boot and drakconnect gives no error during configuration
but if I use mcc and choose connect, am told connection failed and to
check my configuration using mcc, thats a lot of help.
I checked /etc/host files, changed host names, IP address, used
linuxconf and Nothing worked.
It finally dawned on me this afternoon, while beating on RC1 what the
problem is.
At installation during network set-up, or even afterwards using
drakconnect, if connection type LAN DHCP is selected then dhcp-client
and dhcp-server are installed, which is totally WRONG.
dhcpcd should be installed
^
Once I removed dhcp-server and client and manually installed dhcpcd and
started the daemon I was quickly and effortlessly connect to the
Net.
This resolution may also apply to the bug reports in regard to dhcp and
D-Link cards.

I have 2 original Radeons, not some of the cheap ass crap they trying to pass off as such now, and since 7.2 other than the short period of time recently when drm was not in the kernel pkg I have had no performance problem from either card. I also have 2 nvidia cards, a g2 and a g3 and i use the bi drivers, which can be fun sometimes when the kernel is updated almost daily, finally moved the g3 to a 9.0 system. $ for $ and feature for feature the most stable and dependable cards I have are the ATI Xpert2000 with rage 128, and again the orig 128 not the 128 Pro that they are using now. The only way I see Nvidia considering open sourcing there drivers for linux would be for the PC gaming industry to make a Serious entry into the linux market.

I think we should sync with the official spec and then add any working patches.

Also, I notice that someone > on down is claiming to still have the problem with an Athlon. > Nopentium on an Athlon? mem=nopentium is not a 'magic bullet' that will fix all video problems in linux. It only works to address a memory paging error that can occur on AMD systems using AGP. What this paging error can cause are completely random X lock-ups. This problem is not limited to systems with ATI cards but can occur with Any AGP vid card using hw 3d accel. I use this append on all my systems some with ATI cards and others with nvidia. If the X server will not initiate successfully with dri enabled Then This Is Not a Problem That men=nopentium Will Have Any Effect Upon. It is a problem between the 7500 and the drm module. Though this module is included in the latest mdk kernels it is written and provided by Gatos Not by mandrakesoft. I personally like ATI. I have 2 radeons and 3 Xpert2000 (rage128) but the radeon7500 is a problematic card and, again, in my opinion a crappy card that was marketed to compete in the GeForce2 pricerange at the expense of the quality of the chip-set used.
