Re: [Cooker] 2.4 kernel

[Cooker] Modprobe error?
Using the cooker 2.4.1-8mdk kernel, I noticed the following message in boot up but everything seems to be working. I tried rebuilding the initrd image. What is this, I can't find a solution on the web (or is it an issue with the 2.4.1 kernel RPM build?) kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k scsi_hostadapter, errno = 2

I just verified, when booting from kernel 2.2.17 this message does not come up but everything else is the same in that area... - Original Message - From: "Don Awalt" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, February 11, 2001 11:55 AM Subject: [Cooker] Modprobe error?

[Cooker] Problems with 2.4.1-8mdk
I am trying to get the 2.4.1-8mdk smp kernel installed on a 2.2.17 Mandrake 7.2 system with all the current rpms'd updated (the 2.4.1 kernel would be the only cooker addition). I rpm -ivh the headers, source, and docs. I then did rpm -ivh on the kernel-utils. When I rpm -ivh the kernel-smp, I get dependency error on kdeaddutils. So I download that from cooker and tried to -ivh and -Uvh the kdeaddutils and there is a ton of dependency errors (libXft, libXrender, libfreetype,libmng, libstdc++, libc. Is there something simple I am missing, I didn't think I had to upgrade a bunch of cooker stuff to try the rpm kernel, but it's not clear to me what the dependencies are...
Re: [Cooker] Fatal problem in Setting up network - no room to enter FQDN !
Type linuxconf at command line prompt, click networking button on Config tab, click Host name and IP network devices button on Client tasks tab, and on the Host Name tab you see one text box, Host name + domain. Length of text box is not long enough (just verified problem exists in beta 3). - Original Message - From: "Guillaume Cottenceau" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, September 23, 2000 12:36 PM Subject: Re: [Cooker] Fatal problem in Setting up network - no room to enter FQDN !

[Cooker] Fatal problem in Setting up network - no room to enter FQDN !
I just installed Beta 2, and I noticed that when I am configuring my host + domain name, it no longer fits! host is 6 characters then a dot FQDN is 26 characters (.y.zz..com) so the total is 33 characters! Name is so longer as it is a subnet on a public cable modem network. This is a change since Mandrake 7.1, I cannot configure any PC on the network! Using DrakConf, network configuration...

RE: [Cooker] Recognizing memory
There's a drak lilo/grub boot utility that, if you select the linux boot entry, it will let you add an append line like mem=512M (Sorry I don't have specific names I am not at my Linux box and I forget the names). It's on the desktop when Mandrake comes up. Check out the bootdisk HOWTO like at http://www.ssc.com/mirrors/LDP/HOWTO/Bootdisk-HOWTO.html#toc7, to read more about the append and mem=. That should help you too.. __ Don Awalt Chairman and CEO RDA Custom Software Solutions that Mean Business (410) 561-9028 x227 FAX: (410) 561-9031 mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.rdacustomsoftware.com -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, June 02, 2000 7:54 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: re: [Cooker] Recognizing memory PS - What append line did add and where??

[Cooker] Intellimouse
I just installed the latest 5/23 beta build, and I found that while the MS Intellimouse is a valid entry for my mouse (I have it, but it was not recognized automatically), selecting it makes my mouse go whacko - mouse flies all over the screen and it's not useable any more.
