RE: [OT] [Cooker] Re: Outlook
Why is it after this lovely post, there are many emails from a few select posters that I can't read. It's not like I chose to use Outlook, and as a Linux user, I know Outlook sucks. If I choose to view this mailing list at work, I have no choice, Outlook is the only Mail client I can here. SO PRETTY PLEASE KNOCK OFF THE "FRIENDLY EXPLOITS". THEY HAVE NO PLACE IN THIS MAILING LIST. If you want to annoy someone with this join a Microsoft mailing list ;) In case you're wondering I'm now getting the current error message when expanding mail with a red flag next to the message: Can't open this item. A follow up flag must be 100 characters or less. -Original Message- From: Tom Massey [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, October 12, 2000 11:53 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [OT] [Cooker] Re: Outlook Matthew Brealey wrote: rant agreed with but deleted for the sake of brevity People who hate Outlook as much as you might find this page interesting.

RE: [Cooker] About a good editor for Java .......
You could use Vim/Gvim. Available on most platforms. Tons of syntax highlighting options. Can also set file format to dos or Unix which takes care of the CR/LF issue. -Original Message- From: Meir Faraj [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, October 05, 2000 2:20 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Cooker] About a good editor for java ... Hi I wana know if there is any of thee editor that have color for java and could write end of line by default as CR/LF . it will be simpliere for me than use always as I work with programer that work under the dark side os (Micro$oft windarka os) ;-) I've saw Xemacs have cool colors but(I doesn't found this option on it)
[Cooker] Cable Internet Access fails under Static setup.
I mirrored the latest cooker from rpmfind.net this morning (sorry I don't know the version) and my cable internet connection doesn't work. 'ifconfig' reports the existance of eth0, but a ping of www.yahoo.com returns no results. This works under 7.1 and the earlier 7.2 beta. Due to limited space on my machine, my recent use of Linux follows this pattern: * Install stable version * Mirror latest cooker * Install cooker * Scream * Install stable version * repeat.
RE: [Cooker] Divide by Zero in Latest Cooker
I reran the install with the same results: Version: Linux_Mandrake Cooker-i586 2924 23:17 Ctrl-Alt-F3 revealed the following: * running: insmod_2 /dev/tty5 -f /tmp/tulip.o * adding: alias eth0 to tulip * writing host information to /mnt/etc/hosts * warning: Illegal division by zero at /usr/bin/perl-install/netconnect.pm line 705 -Original Message- From: Pixel [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, September 25, 2000 11:36 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Cooker] Divide by Zero in Latest Cooker "Koloseike, Jason" [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: * I finished mirroring cooker from rpmfind.net/linux/MandrakeCooker/cooker/cooker last night at approx 7:20pm EST. * Started a harddrive install * Specified a connection to the internet using Cable (using the tulip driver) * Input the static information (that worked with beta1) * Selected done, and the Installer choked with a "divide by zero" error. can you give at which line it failed?

[Cooker] Divide by Zero in Latest Cooker
* I finished mirroring cooker from rpmfind.net/linux/MandrakeCooker/cooker/cooker last night at approx 7:20pm EST. * Started a harddrive install * Specified a connection to the internet using Cable (using the tulip driver) * Input the static information (that worked with beta1) * Selected done, and the Installer choked with a "divide by zero" error. * Forced my way through the rest of the install (kept going back to network config) * Booted up cooker, configured the network. * ifconfig made it appear that the connection was working, but a ping to www.yahoo.com just sat there
RE: [Cooker] Divide by Zero in Latest Cooker
I'll check tonight when I get home.

[Cooker] 7.2 beta 2 Installation bug
Attempting to perform a hard drive installation (custom install). * Install everything on existing linux partition (hda2 2Gb) * Installing from hda3 (/beta/i586) * Informed Disk Drake that hda2 would be mounted at '/' * Left hda3 alone since it was the source for the installation * Instructed the installation procedure to format hda2 * Selected the packages to install (everything, but databases) * Installer came back indicating the install size would be about 1600 Mb * Installer also indicated that I only had 800Mb free on the 2Gb partition. It had completely ignored the fact that I had instructed the installer to wipe hda2 prior to installation.
