[Cooker] file missing in gcompris
hi, as I couldn't manage to enter it in the bug database, I say it here : there is a file missing in gcompris as of Mdk 8.1. It makes it crash when you launch the game beside paratrooper. Thanks José /\ | José Jorge [EMAIL PROTECTED]| | TEKLYNX International http://www.teklynx.com | \/

Re: [Cooker] i486 optimized?
The market is even NULL sized. But what seems important to me is to keep avaliable Mdk 5.3 (the last i386 compiled version), which could be usefull for shools trying to install X terminals.

I have a SOYO 5EMM MATX machine with an AMD K6-2 450 processor that
has a longstanding power down problem. I know that this is kernel
related because power down works fine with the standard 2.4.5-5 kernel
that was distributed with the first 8.0 Freq release. I now have the
standard 2.4.8-26 kernel (Cooker current) installed and power down fails

As you are to start using rsync on a wget mirror, you have better add the option --size-only. If your connection is bad and you feel that sometimes the transfer is interrupted, then it is wise to keep the partially transfered files by adding the option --partial.

I've been using reiserfs almost exclusively since 7.2 on all my machines. The only partition that I don't use it for is /var because I run qmail on all my machines and there was an issue with qmail and reiserfs in the past (no idea if it's fixed, but /var being ext2 is a matter of habit now). Anyways, I've had a number of power outtages despite having UPS's with the systems all of a sudden going down. I may have lost the odd file occassionally, but certainly never an entire partition. Considering this is on about 5 machines all showing the same thing, I'm a little hesitant to think it's reiserfs *alone*. Maybe there is something with the files on /var that causes this problem (again, maybe if I had reiserfs /var partitions I would have experienced the same thing, I don't know). I do know that I have never lost more than a handful of files and I've got many reiserfs partitions across various systems. Same here. I did loose two partitions on completetly different hard drives but tracked it down to hard drive controler failure. The only thing I can say about the failure is that the ext2 partitions survived it but reiser didn't However I run reiser on almost everything and this is the first time I've had a problem.
