Re: [Cooker] cvs.mandrakesoft.com
Greg, Don't you think there are lots of things rare about Mandrake downloadas: 1) No 9.1 avalaibles after a week with the distribution closed. 2) Cooker impossible to create goods isos 3) Now cvs.mandrakesoft.com down. I wonder if those problems are related? El Domingo, 23 de Marzo de 2003 16:32, Greg Meyer escribió: Anybody else notice that cvs.mandrakesoft.com is down?

Re: [Cooker] Re: Re: When??
Warkly I am according with Greg, at least a message about what the problems are and the date of isos avalaiblity ought to be done as a deference to the mandrake users. Also if there are problems, preorder offers to members club shouldn't have be done immediately!. I preordered one but now I am wondering if the release will see the light anytime :-( Moreover, I ordered the mandrake guide book on february 28th and still it hasn't arrived to me. It seems the delivery of mandrake products is still working as it was before: awfull. Haven't you changed the delivery department? I think those things are damaging seriously Mandrake, specially the silence, and some potential users could be reluctant to use it. AFAIK it is in the hand of the marcom dep now and should be OK for next week. -- Francisco Alcaraz Ariza Departamento de Biología Vegetal Universidad de Murcia E-30100 Murcia España (Spain)

[Cooker] When the isos will be avalaible?
I had a recent cooker as a second system in my hard driver, but the cooker downloaded yesterday gave me lots of problem (the installation were looking for an old kernel file and some more not found packages; probably due that the scripts were still not updated). Now I am runing 9.0, but I need 9.1 to make good looking pf files using LaTeX files (the pdf fonts looks ugly when I compile a file, but under 9.1 there were very good!). At the moment I haven't seen a final 9.1 in any mirror, neither the mirrors starting to download the isos. So, will be the isos avalaibles soon or must I install the old cooker runing I had?

You can do the same in 9.0. Just add \usepackage{times} into the preamble
of you document and that should allow nice PDFs.

Re: [Cooker] Re: War
Of course, Guy!, Certenly the brother of Jorge Bus, gobernator of Florida, said when came to Spain two weeks ago that he was very glad to visit the Spanish Republic This must be a genetic problem of the Bus family, how doesn't remember that G. Bus didn't know the name of the President of Russia in a interview during the electoral campaign? Well, the fact is that in Spanish we say Presidente del Gobierno or just Presidente, so I did a direct translation to English. Probably Minister-President is most accurate in English. Anyway, I would like to say two thing: 1) I don't think that American people that would buy Mandrake won't buy it now, because all the American not Windows user were antipatriotic before. If you are a good American, you must use windows, musn't you? 2) In any case, I hate the war. My father was a soldier in the second Spanish Republic. I had to take an English boat to survive in Algeria. 9 years separated from my mother. I had to fight in the Second World War agains Dutchland in the desert of Algeria. After that we have to leave Algeria because the Independece War of that country. We weren't so happy during our two years in France (we were Spanish in fact). And after that, again in Spain, we weren't so happy because the authorities didn't like a Republican and his family. But we were lucky, in other wars there are lot of people dead and that need to leave of their home and country. Definitively NOT TO THE WAR.

[Cooker] Today cooker: cable conection, shorewall and ip masquering
I have installed the cooker from this morning to analyse if cable conection, shorewall and ipmasquering are runing from a fresh installation. Is difficult to put the results in any bug, I think is better show how they are related. I hope Florin could read this. Those are the results (eth1 conected to cable modem, eth0 for ip masquering conecting my laptop) 1) Net installation fine, tmdns installed. 2) Installing shorewall crashes net, looking in /etc/shorewall/interfaces appear: net ppp+ detect loc eth0 detect loc eth1 detect I had to erase the line for net ppp+ and change the last one putting: net eth1 detect. After service shorewall restart I had bot: shorewall and internet runign :-) 3) Ip masquering: from mandrake control center or from drakgw gives me problems: caching-nameserver not installed. Looking for the problem, it arises for conflicts between bind (needed) for caching-nameserver and tmdns. I unistaled tmdns, and then ip masquering was configurated using mandrake control center. But again not internet. Looking again /etc/shorewall/interfaces there were duplicated entries for eth0 and eth1, I erased those not needed leaving: net eth1 detect masq eth0 detect Also I had to close the dhcpd service (it gave me fault in the start of the computer, probably due to not find tmdns). Now I have internet, shorewall and ipmasquering runing. Francisco Alcaraz Murcia (Spain)

[Cooker] Samba share files in a linux box
Dear folks, I am trying to run samba in my linux-box conected to a laptop runing windows98 I have reached the conexion and from the linux box I can see, copy and delete files and directories of the laptop runing windows98. On the othe hand, I have activated IP-masquering, so I can use my cable modem conexion to internet (the cable modem is conected to the linux box) from the laptop runing windows98 ^_^ Bud also I would like share some directories of the linux box with my laptop, and also the printers. I think is just a question of and account and the password; in fact from the laptop I can see the linux box, but when I try to conect I need a password. Probably I need to create an account in the linux-box with permissions for use some directories and the printers. BDW the printers are using cups. What are the changes to do in smb.conf to enable those possibilities. Thanks a lot for your kind attention, yours sincerely -- Francisco Alcaraz Murcia (Spain)

Harddrake detect a Realtek Semiconducor RT8139 (B/C) Cardbus Fast Ethernet mod: rtl8139 lsmod: pcmcia-core 41920 0 [ds i82365] lspci -vvv gives me: pcilib: Cannot open /proc/bus/pci/15/00.0 lspci: Unable to read 64 bytes of configuration space The problem is that the 15 directory doen't exist, you can find /proc/bus/pci/00 and inside the files: 00.0 02.0 02.1..0c.0 A grave sound shows that the card is not well recognized I don't know if this could help you to find what the problem is.

[Cooker] Beta 3 Aurora and Xcdroast problems
Hello folks, I am having some problems with Aurora and Xcdroast under beta 2 and I would like to show you and look for help: Aurora: In my Spanish installation the text appear with gaps corresponding accents letters (, , , , ). De defect is the new fashions Aurora, but I prefer the old one or the gMonitor. Both are avalaible at DrakConf--boot, but if I do any of the changes the start became as text mode :-( just the new standar fashions runs. Xcdroast: I can copy cds without problems. Problems to create cds; masterizing an image runs well; this image could be burned if I start again MDK 7.2, but in beta 2 of 8.0 when I try to burn the previously created image, xcdroast crashes with a "Segment violation" message if I run it from a konsole. In fact, I have two warnings when the program start: "No set-uid bit on /usr/bin/mkisofs" "No set-uid bit on /usr/bin/readcd" Any ideas? or could be beta bugs? Thanks for your atention, Francisco Alcaraz Murcia (Spain)
