[Cooker] PPP conection....
I have posted previously about the ppp conection problem I beleave, a long long time ago before 7.0 was released .. the problem presisted in 7.0 and sitll prosists in cooker, the problem being is that on boot up it displays starting ppp conection, and then says failed after it is diled and connected, it is connected and the conection works, so it is cosmetic, but i would like to see the bootup with out seeing the big red failed? any chance we can fix this problem?? also I'm not sure about now, but as of a week ago after installing cooker, i installed ppp from the drakconf during the install, first there was no option to make it start on boot, wich needs to be there in the install scripts, secound the conection would not work till i went it linuxconf and edited the configuration, in linuxconf the name of the conection was in where it says pap login, and there was no password set even though in /etc/ppp/pap-secrects it was set corectly, after setting the pap username and password, it changed the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ppp0 so that the configuration name was set to the login name instead of what the confiuartion name was, but it now connects and functions normaly, what's going on here? -DarkWlf

[Cooker] cooker install as of Sat apr 05 7:45 am
I reinstalled this morning and much to my dismay i am having a dissiing amount of problems. problem one. no sound!! , sndconfig is now defunct? and missing from the cooker distrib. lorthar/kudzu dose NOT detect my AWE 64 .. sndconfig detected the card perfect and installed the modules correctly. problem two, /usr/bin/esd* needs to be chmod a+x in order for a lot of the gnome sounds and enlightement sounds to function correctly as a normal user. this is not a new problem , but a persistant one , as soon as I log in I must imidetly chmod a+x /usr/bin/esd* problem three during the install after deslecting a lot of the "groups" (expert install/server) no matter how many i desslect it still clamins that the install will take 2047 megs and complains that it will attempt to contiue but not all the packages will be able to installed due to disk space limitations.. once in the package selction , everything goes fine.. problem four , I must reiderate that we need to replace qt 2.0.1 with qt 2.1 , as licq is the only program we use that requires qt 2. (besides kde 2 (wich needs 2.1 as well) and there is just no reson to contuie to use the 2.01 since it causes some serious and minor bugs to apear in licq ! problem five apon bootup , i have no X, gdm attempts to start, and then imiedtly shuts down over and over again, after getting the machine into runlevel 3, i started X manuly and descovered that X is deniing gdm access to the display 0.0 invalid magic cookie... cookies! hehe. but non the less it has rendered gdm unsusalbe, and I am unable to get to function no matter how much i play with the X/gdm/xdm configuration problems, asl i noticed that on starting gnome-session manualy I get the following error msg's wolvesden.dhs.org:/tmp/.ICE-unix/14428,tcp/darkangel.wolvesden.dhs.org:1067 Gnome-Message: gnome_execute_async_with_env_fds: returning -1 /bin/sh: /usr/bin/esd: Permission denied Xlib: extension "XFree86-Misc" missing on display ":0.0".

Note the Xlib erros. i get something to that affect i do beleave also when starting gdm only it is to do with the securitiy or something like that. problem five on boot up i recieved and error msg about the httpd server starting with ssl, no such file or directory ssl.so or something to that affect, I installed the ssl mods (acroding to the instalation anyway. so there is a prolly a configuration problem when doing the /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf problem six using linuxconf now , when you exit and ask it to display changes it has to do , it crashes and brings up the gnome crash dialog box, (simply aplying changes dose not crash it) the installation was as I stated before done under expert, (hd.img) server instalation, packages were installed using package selection screen, with auto deps unchecked (so it would display the information about what it was installing.. btw I love that new option!!) securtity level normal(medium?) was chosen, using X 4 server that comes with the distrib, no modifiactions except for custom XFree86config-4 file, though it was haveing problems before this was used. X was set to start at boot, though it is now running in level 3 , to get around the gdm problem.. I will attempt to install kdm now and get back to you on wherether or not that functions. (no kde programs are currently installed except for kdesu (for the mandrake dekstop options.. hey guys why don't we use gsu for the gnome desktop instead?? ) -DarkWlf

If this doesn't solve your problem, try moving to 2.3.42, which is now out.

I do not know if My last msg got through as I never saw a copy of it here.. but here goes again.. I'm trying to figure out how to fix the mounting of smb drives at boot.. when they are mounted at boot they act very strangly, I have the lines in My /etc/fstab. And when the system boots the system says "mounting smb filesystems" most times that works but.. I have 2 or more mount points for each smb mount point. and sometimes one mount point will fail, and sometimes it will work fine. but most times it is the first with one of hte moint points not being mounting and I have to unmount and remount the drives.. also... I have ntoiced that when installing a large file with rpm off of one of the smb mount points it somehow barfs that particular mount point. after installing the rpm (only using regular rpm, dose not happen when using kpackage, rpmdrake, gnorpm etc.) all files on the mount point "dissapere" very anoying..

I have one of those in my system interesting lol So untill someone get's aga working corectly I am screwed. lol;) You do know not to use the mem hack with the agpgart right (that one got me..) Yes agpgart uses "DMA=AGP" while mem hack is "DMA=memaddress" as soon as I update the system I will try again.. oh. btw is there agpgart part for the new 2.2.14 kernel?? -DarkWlf
[Cooker] New enlightenment update
after installing the new enlightemnet that recently became avail on the cooker mirrors I have noticed a dramtic increase in memory usage. from around 30-50 megs to up to 100 megs now. Any ideas? (I am speaking of X's mem usage.) -DarkWlf

So I do not see what else it could be. I updated it restarted Enlightenment , and X shot right up to 99 megs. I shut down the server and restarted and it calmed down a bit but not much. its at 60 megs now so maybe it was just a system glitch. I'l keep an eye on it.

I put together a dual Celeron 466 with a G400 yesterday, and within hald an hour I had the driver complied, GART set up (using the old gart module), and I was timedemoing Quake 3 at 35 fps (640x480, 16-bit, all the pretty options on). This stuff is amazing! Now I can't wait for multitexturing and an SMP build of Quake 3! Also, is anyone working on 32-bit Z-buffers? Even 24-bit would be fine, it's just that I'm doing some work that really suffers on a 16-bit z-buffer. Thanks Leigh ___ glx-dev mailing list - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.openprojects.net/mailman/listinfo/glx-dev I have a question what distrib / compiler version/ kernel version did you use to compile the old gart? I can not get it to compile at all -DarkWlf *nods* that is what I am getting with the 2.2.13 kernel that comes with cooker. (have yet to try the new 2.2.14) ok so it is a bug with Mandrake's patches to the kernel.. wounder what is the problem.

Is it possible to get an archive of the cooker changelog list? -DarkWlf
[Cooker] text mode installs

(for the more daring, try ``linux stdio'' :) lol I love to be daring , just about finshied updating everything and going to try and do the install again. hopefully everyting goes well;) -crossing fingers-

The problem is if you ask to install kernelcfg. It requires kernel and both hackkernel and kernel-2.2.13 provides it. And the nasty code takes the first :( Ok that makes sence. i must do something about it, but i don't know what yet :( (the same problem exists with postfixsendmail too) I have noticed that as well ended up just configuring postfix and leaving sendmail out this time around. there is also a conflict with the conf.modules and ppp when you have both 2.2.13 and the 2.3.21 kernels install. OH almost forgot the latest installs for the grahpical install complain about the aha152x module being compiled for the wrong kernel. :)

BOOT10 and BOOT 5 I think I am not positve so don't quote me on it! I'l have to reboot and try the setup and see for sure. I ended up just compiling the 2.3x kernel (not for the faint of heart!) with scsi support. but I think boot5 is the the kernel on the boot disk

Windows, low medium high paranoid sugestion put descriptions in the install so the user knows what the different options do
[Cooker] compssList
Ok first question compssList is the only file that I need to update right? Secound question what do the numbers mean?

Pixel wrote: "Lord And Master;)" [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Ok first question compssList is the only file that I need to update right? if you want your rpm to be visible, put it in compss Secound question what do the numbers mean? some kind of mark between 0 and 99 used to select X Megabytes eg: for 250Mb in normal, it selects the higher marked packages plus their dependencies until 250Mb is reached. So I do not have to put the package in compssList only compss?
