[Cooker] ctrl+alt+backspace shuts PC down.

2002-10-09 Thread Joseph Davidson

I recently installed 9.0 on a friends PC.  After reconfiguring the mouse
(to enable the wheel),  I needed to restart X.  When I pressed
ctrl+alt+backspace,  the system immediatly turned off.

I am not sure what the exact specs are on the PC, but I believe it is a
P4 2Ghz, 512mb ram, and an nvidia based graphics card with the default
driver. (not the 3d accelerated driver from nvidia. )

[Cooker] OpenOffice.org Writer does not print bold fonts properly.

2002-09-23 Thread Joseph Davidson

I attempted to print a simple document with some bold fonts.  The bold
fonts printed out the same as the other fonts that did not have bold
settings.  Printing the file using Kword work properly. 

I am currently running RC3. 
My printer is an HP Deskjet 710C using CUPS.

Changing the icon also doesn't get reflected.  I found that I need to

[Cooker] Accessing removable media in KDE

2002-09-11 Thread Joseph Davidson

When I attempt to access my cdrom or internal zip when there is no media
in the drive (by clicking on the icon on the KDE desktop), I get a
dialog box that says that I do not have access rights to /mnt/cdrom (or
/mnt/zip or /mnt/cdrom2).

The message is incorrect and misleading and should state that the there
is no disk in the drive(if that is possible.)

Placing a disk in the drive and clicking on the icon works as expected.

I've seen this problem too, and it has been reported on this mailing
list.  However, since it doesn't seem to cause any problems, it probably
will not get fixed before release.  

It would be nice to get this fixed someone new to Linux may not be too
impressed when they see that error when they boot their system.  This
message really stands out since all normal messages are suppressed.

Changing auto to iso9660 does make an improvement.  "ls /mnt/cdrom" only
probes the cdrom once (takes about 5 seconds).  rpmdrake also loads much
faster...but still feels it needs to probe 3 times (once per cd I
guess).

[Cooker] Kivio broken?

Is it just me, or is Kivio missing the ability to draw lines or connect

Also, the Kivio handbook appears to be missing.  (Help->Kivio Handbook

I am seeing the same thing. I have an Advansys SCSI adapter and
IDEA-SCSI devices (ATAPI ZIP and ATAPI CD-Burner)  In the past I have
gotten rid of this message by removing the line "scsi_hostadapter" from
my /etc/modules.  My system has worked fine without the line.

9.0 has the same kernel as what I had previously.  However, I didn't run
into the problem before because I had removed the CRROM sources from

[Cooker] A "ls /mnt/cdrom" takes forever

2002-07-23 Thread Joseph Davidson



After installing 9.0beta1, performing a "ls /mnt/cdrom" without a disk
in the cdrom takes a long time (about a minute) to fail.  I first
noticed this with rpmdrake, which takes several minutes to start while
it checks for a disk in the cdrom.  Placing a CDROM in the drive
prevents this problem.  The drive is a CD-RW  CRX120E (Sony) which is
treated as an IDE-SCSI device.

[Cooker] KDE 3.01 Feedback...

2002-06-10 Thread Joseph Davidson

So far my experience with KDE 3.01 has been very good.  I have been
running it for several weeks, and I have found it very stable, with the
exception of a few problems: (mostly kdevelop related)

kdevelop needs kdbg?  I made a single line change to the .spec file to
remove the requirement and rebuilt.  It seems to work fine without it.  

Where is the developer documentation for kdelibs?  kdelibs-devel-2.2.2
contained all the documentation for the libs, it doesn't seem to be
there any more.  

"kdevelop --setup" looks for "designer" not designer-qt3.  Therefore, it
doesn't think that qt3 designer exists. (an strace indicated this)

the messages window in kdevelop doesn't seem to like the output from gcc
as it doesn't recognize newlines.

Konqueror doesn't seem to handle http://www.pricewatch.com very well. It
starts to show the whole page, but as soon as it loads, it changes and
just shows the "System Memory Links" page. 
mozilla-1.0-0.rc2.2mdk displays the website without problems


Here are the packages I currently have installed.

[Cooker] msec_find causes kernel Oops

2002-05-31 Thread Joseph Davidson

I keep getting a Oops from Kernel 2.4.18-16mdk whenever msec_find runs
(~4am daily).  It occurs in scan_dir_for_removable() in
linux/fs/devfs/base.c.I believe it has has something to do with my atapi
zip being configured as an ide-scsi.  

I have a standard 2.4.18+supermount kernel that has not shown this
problem.  

This has already been reported as it has been occurring since the 8.2
release.

Re: [Cooker] Kernel problem in devfs

2002-04-13 Thread Joseph Davidson

I am seeing this same exact problem.  I have an IDE ZIP that is
supermounted, and about once a day (when msec_find runs), I get an Oops
in scan_dir_for_removeable().  I placed some code in the function that
prints out dir->name.  It appears the Oops occurs when attempting to
access /dev/host1/bus0/target0/lun0,  which is my zip drive.  

I have since patched a stock kernel (2.4.18) with supermount,  and this
has worked flawlessly for over a week.

I have been seeing a similar thing, I get an Oops at 4:04am every day. 
I think it may be related to /dev/sdb which is an ATAPI ZIP 100. At

[Cooker] Oops with ppp over serial?

2002-03-11 Thread Joseph Davidson

I have an Agenda VR3 that I am connecting to and exporting the display
to my PC (8.2 beta 4 just installed - Kernel is 2.4.18-2mdk).  This will
work fine for a while, but when I open Konqueror, or let Evolution check
mail.  Occasionally,  I will get strange lock ups, and my PC has even
spontaniously restarted several times.  In my /var/log/messages I find
several Oops's. (see below).

Normally, when I am NOT connected to the VR3,  the system has been
extremely stable.  

This problem was also present using beta 3.  

In order to connect to the VR3,  I use the following command: 

/usr/sbin/pppd /dev/ttyS1 10.1.1.1:10.1.1.2 noauth nodetach debug 115200
local 

My main Internet connection is through an Intel EtherExpress PRO/100+, 
which is configured for DHCP, and is connect to a LinkSys DSL router.  

The output from dmesg is also listed below.

Let me know if you need further info.

-Joe

[Cooker] Beta 4 install

2002-03-08 Thread Joseph Davidson

The beta 4 install went almost perfectly, however when I got to the end
of the setup it was claiming it could not find a soundcard.  However, 
when I restarted my PC,  the correct Alsa drivers were loaded and sound
worked. I have an es1370.  

On the subject of alsa drivers,  I have noticed that the sound in Return
to Castle Wolfenstien single player occasionally skips during the
animations, and doesn't seem to work at all during the intro.  Switching
to the OSS drivers for my sound card cleared this up.  (I also disable
arts before starting the game)

I have also noticed that /usr/bin/artswrapper is not installed suid,  so
arts complains it can't run with real-time priority.  Is this
intentional?  














Re: [Cooker] qt designer in beta 2?

2002-02-14 Thread Joseph Davidson

I installed qt2-designer 2.3.1-24mdk from cooker, however, kdevelop
2.0.2-7mdk expects qt-designer to be named "designer", and not
designer-qt2. A simple symlink fixes this, but shouldn't qt designer be
installed with this name (or at least a symlink?), or should kdevelop
look for qt2-designer?

[Cooker] Beta 2 Report....

2002-02-10 Thread Joseph Davidson

For the most part installing worked flawlessly,  however, I have a few
issues.

1)  Is there a reson that kdeutils and kdevelop rely on efax? 
Attempting to delselect efax during the install told me that both
kdeutils and kdevelop would also be unselected.

2) The first time I booted, my home directory could not be mounted. 
(/boot mounted at /dev/hdb1, / mounted at /dev/hdb2, and /home mounted
at /dev/hdb6)
Upon further investigation, I found that the partition table had become
corrupt.  fdisk printed this warning:

"Invalid flag 0x of partition table 5 will b corrected by w(rite)."

During the install, I did not create or destroy an partitions, just
changed the format of /dev/hdb2 to reiserfs, and /dev/hdb6 to xfs. (both
were ext3 prior to that). 

3) My USB mouse stops working in X after a resume.  I have found that
switching to virtual terminal, and then switching back to X fixes the
mouse.  I have since enabled the CHANGEVT="7" in the /etc/sysconfig/apmd
file and this seems to work.
