Re: [Cooker] Re: nvidia driver messes up console mode (framebuffer?)

2003-10-16 Thread Serge Plüss
So far every NVIDIA driver release has worked fine for me, including playing 
Neverwinter Nights and Unreal Tournament 2003. No X Lockups, no reboots, no 
console screwups (with or without framebuffer).

Currently runing 4496 with GeForce2 MX 400 on a Athlon 1.4 Thunderbird and
Linux version 2.4.22-10mdk on latest cooker.  This Machine is usually 
continuously running for 5 days and shut down for the weekends.

Card:NVIDIA GeForce2 DDR (generic): nVidia Corporation|NV11 Geforce2 MX/MX 400 
[DISPLAY_VGA] (vendor:10de device:0110 subv:10b0 subd:0001)

Serge

P.S. The only console screwups I get with Mandrake 9.1/9.2/cooker is running 
it under VMWare (all 4.0.x versions) after quitting X. Both with the Mandrake 
included VMWare driver or the native application one.

 Grrr,  NVidia cards are just making my life miserable.  I have almost
 the same hardware that one of the Bug reporters and things work well
 for me.

 I need to try to found a pattern somewher.  Until now it appears that:

 - drivers 4363 works for a lot of people.
 - drivers 4496 fails for several people (they work for me).

 Can people please mail me the output of lspcidrake -v and telling me
 what versions work/don't work for you?

 I have found that machines fail with PIII, PIV and athlons, both with
 NVidia IGP and normal cards.

 Only pattern found until now are that the following cards fail:

 - GForce MX
 - Gforce2 MX
 - IGP (Gforce4 MX)
 - standalone GForce4 MX

 At least the:
 - GForce3 Ti500 work (guess what is the card that I have)


 Current theory is that:

 New driver with cards older than GForce3 fail.  GForce4 MX if I
 remember correctly is just a GForce2 core on steroids.


 Later, Juan learning too much about NVidia graphics cards.




Re: [Cooker] 9.2 - disaster already?

2003-10-16 Thread Serge Plüss
Fresh 9.2 install on a fresh harddrive. Everything went smooth and the machine 
rebooted and worked fine.
Started Mandrake update and it downloaded/installed a couple of files 
successfully.
After reboot almost the whole menu tree is empty and all application launcher 
items on the Kicker panel dissapeared.
Ran update-menus and that brought back most (if not all) menu entries, but it 
didn't bring back any of the kicker application shortcuts. 
Had to start adding them manually again. Now I am almost afraid after reading 
some similar comments to install any new software or updates.

Yes, but due to their long lasting presence in the stores plus the media 
attention they have build themselves enough name recognition to probably be 
able to pull this off.
If you go on the street here and you ask people they will have heard of 
RedHat and probably even seen the box in the stores. Two IT directors I 
know tried Linux because they saw the boxes at Fry's and bought a pack. 
What was it? Both went for Redhat and one additionally bought a copy of 
Xandros.
If you ask the same people about Mandrake, most of the times they have 
never heard that name.
Like Austin said, people here are impulse buyer when they see it in the 
store and if Mandrake wants to be a bigger player in the US it needs that 
presence to build up their name recognition.
I understand that the immediate payoff for Mandrake is less but in the 
longterm it will just be beneficial. Even SUSE as a German company realized 
that and managed to get themselves known here thanks mostly to the boxed 
sets, not even providing a free ISO to download.
Also for the enterprise, deals such as the ones between Oracle and Redhat 
and Suse are necessary to build credibility as a serious platform.

In my opinion that is something that Mandrake needs to put more effort

know of quite a few people that just pick up a box at any of these

Re: [Cooker] urpmi.update and curl issue seen too.

2003-07-30 Thread Serge Plüss
Hi

just a quick question as the curl issues are getting resolved with urpmi:

In order to use curl from my machine to the depository machine I have to use 
the curl -P option.
Is there a way to tell urpmi to pass that option to curl (as -P is already 
used in urpmi for another option)?

Thanks

Re: [Cooker] curl problems with urpmi - follow-up question

2003-07-24 Thread Serge Pluess
Hi

I thought I would try some of those tests you suggested. First of all  
the Directory with the updated cooker files on the ftp server is :
/home/spluess/Mandrake-devel
So I tried the following curl command:

[Serge-Pluesss-Computer:~] root# curl -k --location-trusted -R -f  
--stderr - -z harddrake-9.2-0.21mdk.i586.rpm -O  
ftp://spluess:[EMAIL PROTECTED]//home/spluess/Mandrake-devel/cooker/i586/ 
Mandrake/RPMS/harddrake-9.2-0.21mdk.i586.rpm

This is the result of that command:

curl: (9) Couldn't cd to home

So then I tried it without the double //:

[Serge-Pluesss-Computer:~] root# curl -k --location-trusted -R -f  
--stderr - -z harddrake-9.2-0.21mdk.i586.rpm -O  
ftp://spluess:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/home/spluess/Mandrake-devel/cooker/i586/ 
Mandrake/RPMS/harddrake-9.2-0.21mdk.i586.rpm

Same result:

curl: (9) Couldn't cd to home

then I thought I might try not to specify the /home/spluess part as the  
Mandrake-devel folder is under the user accounts home directory:

[Serge-Pluesss-Computer:~] root# curl -k --location-trusted -R -f  
--stderr - -z harddrake-9.2-0.21mdk.i586.rpm -O  
ftp://spluess:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/Mandrake-devel/cooker/i586/Mandrake/RPMS/ 
harddrake-9.2-0.21mdk.i586.rpm

That command just hangs. Same also for double // between dbdev and  
Mandrake-devel

Then I tried adding --disable-epsv, same results as above

curl -l ftp://spluess:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ also just hangs

so then I tried to add -P and I got the file listing from my home dir  
with the -l command

Next try was the transfer command above with the -P option and this  
time it worked, but only without the /home/spluess part in the ftp path:

[Serge-Pluesss-Computer:~] root# curl -k --location-trusted -P -R -f  
--stderr - -z harddrake-9.2-0.21mdk.i586.rpm -O  
ftp://spluess:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/Mandrake-devel/cooker/i586/Mandrake/RPMS/ 
harddrake-9.2-0.21mdk.i586.rpm

and here is the output

But to come back to the actual urpmi I think like you said that curl  
has a problem when the path is specified from the / directory (such as  
/home/spluess) whereas wget doesn't seem to have that same problem as  
it works just fine with urpmi:

Since the beginning of the year with cooker updates daily curl has never 
functioned for urpmi. Always had to use wget, so you're not alone.

[Cooker] Resend: Unbootable System since latest cooker updates

2003-07-15 Thread Serge Pluess
Sent this orignally on friday but it never made it through:

Hi

Current cooker system booted fine this morning.
then did my usual morning urpmi --auto-select ...  update of my 
cooker system and now I can't get it to boot regularly anymore. Lot's 
of error messages scrolling by and then the system just hangs. Just 
rebooted into failsafe mode and looking at the messages file.

[Cooker] Re: Resend: Unbootable System since latest cooker updates

2003-07-15 Thread Serge Pluess
Hi again

I just want to report that after the newest urpmi --auto-select of 
this morning the system boots up normally again. Thank you.

Thought I would list here a couple of the error/warning messages that 
appear in the /var/log/messages file. Not sure what (if any) impact 
they have, but here they are for your information:

Jul 15 06:44:00 athlon-sp kernel: Looking for splash picture 
found (800x600, 25593 bytes, v1).
Jul 15 06:44:00 athlon-sp kernel: bootsplash: Using deprecated v1

Jul 15 06:44:00 athlon-sp kernel: bootsplash: Find the latest version 
at ftp.suse.com/pub/people/stepan/bootsplash/

This one has crept his way back. I know it was gone a while ago 
(Using Alsa with SB Live) Will search for that one in the 
archives/google :

There should be something out by the end of this week...

The reason for dropping ntfs driver temporarily is because
the version used (2.1.1a)  didn't build with latest gcc,
but it's fixed  in 2.1.4a that will be merged into the kernel...

[Cooker] perl(this) is needed

2003-07-02 Thread Serge Plüss
Hi

for the last week and a half I have not been able to update my cooker 
installation. The error message I am getting is the following one:

Installation failed:
  perl(this) is needed by MySQL-bench-4.0.13-2mdk

Anyway I can get passed this?

Probably not related to the above I have now noticed much more information 
being displayed when running urpmi and saw the following lines early in the 
process:

The following packages have to be removed for others to be upgraded:

gimp-extras-1.2.0-5mdk.noarch  (due to missing gimp)
gimpprint-4.2.5-18mdk.i586   (due to missing gimp)
xsane-gimp-0.90-3mdk.i586 (due to missing gimp)

Was just wondering why that says (due to missing gimp) as gimp is installed 
and is version 1.2.3-21mdk?

Thanks in advance

[Cooker] Still issues adjusting volume with SBlive and digital speakers

2003-03-28 Thread Serge Plüss
Hi

I am still having problems adjusting volume for my SBlive soundcard with 
Boston Accoustic Digital speakers (2 speakers) from applications.

I can 'temporarily' fix it for xmms by doing the following (suggested 
earlier):

echo 'PCM Wave 0' ? /proc/asound/card0/oss_mixer

On reboot I have to do this again (or add it to some startup script).

Now I can change the volume in xmms. But I still can't adjust the volume in 
apps like xine, aviplay, etc. Sliding the volume control in any of these apps 
just doesn't do anything.

This is with using alsa as the soundsystem. Is there any way to get the sound 
with the SBLive so that all apps can adjust the volume? 
This is fresh installed from cooker late January and since updated everyday 
for latest files.

Tried with alsa that comes with mdk which is now at 0.9.0rc8 (and also 
downloaded the 0.9.1). Kernel is at 2.4.21-0.13mdk
and the following rpm's are installed as well:
alsa-utils-0.9.0-0.8rc7mdk
libalsa-data-0.9.0-0.14rc7mdk
libalsa2-0.9.0-0.14rc7mdk
alsamixergui-0.9.0-0.6rc1_2mdk

Thanks for any help

Have you tried moving away your old KDE configuration (~/.kde and 
~/Desktop) and letting a fresh one be created?




While a bugfix is made, there is a way to manually correct this bug. You
have to copy the files kfmclient.desktop, kfmclient_dir.desktop, 
kfmclient_html.desktop and kfmclient_war.desktop from
/usr/share/applnk/System/ to your ~/.kde/share/applnk-mdk/ directory. This
will fix the annoying dialog pop-up.
this is an old email sent in thi ml

I did try with a fresh created user like I mentioned earlier this week and 
it still happens.
I will try the copy of those files. So every time I create a new user I 
will have to manually copy those files to the new users .kde directory? 
Hope this is not the case with the boxed released version of 9.1

Thanks

[Cooker] KMail preview pane font problem

2003-03-14 Thread Serge Plüss
Hi
I noticed this since about a week now in the latest cookers. Kmail is using 
the sans font for the folder list ad the message list but it shows a 
different mostly unreadable font for the preview pane. 
So I went to the kmail settings and under the Appearance icon I checked Use 
custom fonts. Message body was set to sans and in the box at the bottom it 
shows sans correctly but the preview and the full message window still use 
that other font. So I select Arial for the font and it shows the preview pane 
and full message correctly with that Arial font.
But if I re-select Sans, again it shows it correctly in the box at the bottom 
but the preview pane and full message window show that other font again.
I checked in a couple of other applications and all of them render the Sans 
font correctly.
I attached a screenshot that shows that situation.

Any idea?

Serge

[Cooker] Mozilla printing crash

Hi

not sure if this is a mozilla issue but that is where I noticed it.
We have an HP8550GN  Network printer that I have cooker installed as a 
Jetdirect printer through cups. Printing works fine from all apps.

But if for some reason someone turns the printer off and I try to print a page 
from mozilla, mozilla just completely crashes and exists all instances.

[Cooker] still alsa sound and KDEInit problems

2003-03-06 Thread Serge Plüss
Hi

Still with the latest cooker sound on SB Live is awfully choppy. I had read 
that some of the latest alsa is supposed to fix this but as of 
kernel-2.4.21.0.12mdk-1-1mdk it is still reporting using alsa 0.9.0RC6 

and the removable media icon or any directory I create on the desktop still 
causes the KDEInit could not launch 'kfmclient' to appear (For a long time 
that this has been happening).

Thank you

Thanks.  I updated to this, but /proc/cpufreq is still not there.  
Could there be some kind of boot option I'm missing?  I checked for 
any relavent modules, but didn't find any.

FYI: I was reading http://www.brodo.de/cpufreq/interface.html and it 
mentioned that CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_PROC_INTF might need turned on.  
However, this wouldn't explain why some people have gotten it to work.

What kind of hardware do you have?

Are there any other laptop users that out there that can comment? 
I have a Titanium 1Ghz (november 02 version)...

The 12 inch seems to be very different from  mine, sure Apple have to 
change the motherboard to fit in the smaller case,
and also to support the DDR...

Hope for u that the upgrade won't be long

If you do a:

as root you will probably see it actually running at a lower speed.  From
what I've read, all recent Apple laptops start up at reduced speed.

U are right, this a power manegement feature... to save the batterie

And u can alse use the same frequency in Macos X when u set the reduce

But i not sure if the apple profiler will tell u the real speed.

[Cooker] libmyodbc-2.0.50.39 wrong symlinks and error in OpenOffice to access Datasources

2003-02-27 Thread Serge Plüss
Hi

just installed libmyodbc-2.0.50.39 and it installed an invalid symlink:

1830301 lrwxrwxrwx1 root root   68 Feb 27 14:25 
/usr/lib/libmyodbc-2.50.39.so - 
../../home/warly/rpm/tmp/MyODBC-2.50.39-root//usr/lib/libmyodbc.so.2

I installed this in order to be able to try to access the 'Organize' button 
for ODBC datasources under the Data Source URL in Openoffice which always 
gives me the following error:

Could not load the program library libodbc.so.1 or it is corrupted. The ODBC 
data source configuration is not available.

I checked and libodbc.so.1 is a symlink in /usr/lib to libodbc.so.1.0.0

The only similar mentioning of this I found was when the libodc.so.1 was in 
/usr/local/lib that it needed to be moved into /usr/lib

This is on cooker with all the latest updates.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Re: [Cooker] Cannot change volume in any multimedia programs (snd-emu10k1)

 We really need some configuring for the alsa mixer, but I do not have the
 time to do it before 9.1.
 Also, I do not own digital speakers, so I'm not sure which mixer setting
 you should use. Can you try 'wave surround' in kmix to see if it helps?

 d.

Well, like I said earlier. I do get sound out of the digital speakers with the 
alsa driver (also as others have noted with a lot of cracklings).
What I can't do is adjust the volume from the volume sliders in multimedia 
applications such as xmms, aviplay, xine.
I can move those volume sliders from 100% to 0% and nothing changes.

From Kmix I can use the following sliders to adjust the volume:
Wave, Emu10k1 PCM only changes the volume on the left speaker. All other 
sliders (including master/base/treble) don't do anything at all.

So i wanted to try the oss driver and tried emu10k1 and afterwards audigy and 
couldn't get any sound with them at all. So now I am back with Alsa but can't 
adjust the volume from within the applications.

Thanks

[Cooker] Cannot change volume in any multimedia programs (snd-emu10k1)

2003-02-26 Thread Serge Plüss
Hi

today I came accross this issue which I hadn't noticed as I am usually using 
the volume knob on the speakers to adjust the volume.
I use a SBLive and have digital Boston Accoustic speakers hooked up to it.
Alsa starts up successfully at boot and I get sound in all programs.
But when I go to adjust the volume in any of the programs nothing happen. 
Sounds stays at whatever volume it is set. I tried with xmms, aviplay, 
mplayer, xine, kaboodle, kscd, etc.
So I started to look at the mixers. Am running in 1600x1200 resolution and the 
only mixer I found first was kmix and that came up going way over the whole 
width of the screen. But nothing I would change in there would do anything at 
all. So I read that I should try Alsamixer which wasn't installed. So I 
installed it and when launched I was presented with 63 entries. The top 
recognized my soundcard as Soundblaster Live! with Cirrus Logic CS4297A rev 4 
chipset.
But no matter which slider I was trying to change it would not affect the 
volume nor bass nor treble. 
Next I tried Arts control tool and that one too is not showing any activity 
and changing the slider doesn't do anything.
Same with aumix.

So I figured let's try another sound system.
Currently I was using the snd-emu10k1 which I guess is the alsa. then I tried 
the audigy and the emu10k1. After changing to either of those I got no sound 
at all. No matter what I tried. So finally I chose snd-emu10k1 and now I have 
sound again, but also can't adjust any volume anywhere.
This is what the sound configuration tool put in modules.conf:
above snd-emu10k1 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-slot-0 snd-emu10k1

and this is what I get when I do a lsmod:

so to which version do I need to update kdebase for this to work? The

   I was not able to start any of the programs until the bad font was

   Like Serge, I found it didnt' matter which fonts I moved around.
   Frederic Crozat spent some timelooking at this too.  I found that
   it depends on the *order* in which fc-cache is run...
  
   If you run fc-cache in /usr/X11R6/lib/fonts so it descends
   recursively, the result is useless, programs don't run.
  
   If you make a change, e.g. moving a font or directory, things run.
   E.g. I did, mv drakfonts .., to move a whole directory away.
  
   If you then move the directory back, and do
   cd drakfont
   fc-cache -f -v `pwd`
   then everything runs, with all the fonts yuo had before.
 
 Well, I'm not able to fix the problem when regenerating cache using
  this method :((
 
   Furthermore, the cache file generated in the drakfont directory
   is identical!  Only the tiemstamp is different.
 
 In fact, there is two differents ways to generate cache in fontconfig
  code (ar), one is used when using fc-cache, the other when starting
  a program linked with fontconfig (and when cache is not coherent..)

  Hi there
 
  yup, it is definitely not a bad font and the above method didn't help
  either. What I found though is that the drakfont/ttf directory has 234
  fonts in it. I have to move like more than half of them out and then all
  the programs work fine. It doesn't matter which fonts they are.

 I'm not so sure of that.. If you don't want to test all those fonts
 yourself, could you send me a private mail with an URL for downloading a
 tarball of this font directory so I can test ?

Was wondering if anything had happened with this as with cooker current of 
today I am still experiencing the same issue and am starting to wonder if 
this is going to go over into the released 9.1.

Thanks for any update

[Cooker] RC1 issues thoughts

2003-02-18 Thread Serge Plüss


Hi

just installed RC1 on a Dell Dimension 4550.

Configuring printers during installation doesn't show/discover the 
jetdirect printers on the local network. Have to install and configure them 
manually. 9.0 discovered them correctly.

Choosing reboot from KDE causes a drop to the console login prompt instead 
of rebooting.
Login in at that moment and typing reboot shuts the pc down instead of 
rebooting. Both of these behavior are new since RC1. Didn't happen with 
Beta 2/1

Clicking on Printer Configuration in the Mandrake control center just 
causes the icon to flash, but printerdrake is not being started. Starting 
it from command line works. This has been since beta2 at least.

Samba Configuration under Configuration-Network has blank buttons (for 
example for Save, Reset, etc) that you need to guess what they are under 
all/most configuration screens

OpenOffice doesn't have the Help files installed. Shouldn't that be part of 
a default OpenOffice installation instead of having to go install it 
manually later?

Konsole's default font looks pretty bad on this default 1280x1024 
resolution as it takes almost the full width of the screen. Courier 10 
Pitch looks already better. Not sure what it used to be on 9.0 and 8.2 but 
those looked better.

This is a dedicated test machine without any other OS installed on it and 
the default fonts look awful on this machine. I will start to 
modify/install other fonts but out of the box the system looks just bad., 
especially the fonts on the desktop and in the konqueror filemanager and 
startmenu which are the first things a new user is likely to see.

Konqueror LAN Browser just list lan://localhost/  if I type in 
lan://mydomain/ I get an error message saying The lisa daemon does not 
appear to be running but it shows up with a ps ax:

1696  ?S   0:00 /usr/bin/lisa -c /etc/lisarc

I had already changed samba to the same workgroup name as the windows 
network and was able to use Linneighborhood to browse the domain
Gnomba also immediately browsed the local domain/workgroup correctly.

I watched my co-worker trying to get browsing to work in the konqueror file 
manager give up after spending half a day. He installed a couple of other 
distros and some of them are capable of browsing the local subnet or local 
full network out of the box without reconfiguring anything, just launch the 
konqueror file manager, click on LAN Browsing and it showed all the hosts 
on the local network.
Wonder what it would take for Mandrake Linux to get that going as well out 
of the box.

Three people I showed the default desktop to, asked where the icon for the 
webbrowser is. I show them the shortcut down on the panel, but they all 
said they want it on the desktop. They said that that icon on the desktop 
should launch the default webbrowser if that is possible (so either Mozilla 
/ Konqueror / Netscape / or which other browser was selected as the 
'default' browser).
They mentioned similar thoughts for the Default E-Mail program as it seem 
those are the main apps together with wordprocessing and playing mp3s that 
they would be using most of the time.

Mandrake-Galaxy has 'only' text entries and next to them the text 
image.  Those users I mentioned above also said that the four icons for 
MandrakeClub / Discover custom services /  Buy new software / Get 
Support would be enough if they would be in the Galaxy screen and in the 
menu system but not as an icon on the desktop.

Thank you for a great distro

No OpenOffice.Org-help RPM files weren't included in RC1 ISOs because
of lack of space.

Thank you for the clarification. So now that RC1 is back to 3 CD's and lack

[Cooker] urpmi --auto-select fails on apache

2003-02-18 Thread Serge Pluess
Hi

for the last week or so I haven't been able to update my current cooker 
system. I am getting the following failure:

Installation failed:
   apache-modules = 1.3.27-6mdk is needed by apache-1.3.27-6mdk

I checked in the mirror and all the 1.3.27 rpm are 5mdk except for the main 
file apache-1.3.27-6mdk

Can I just force the installation or do I need to wait for all the other 
1.3.27 rpm's are updated to 6mdk?

Thanks

You could also try your 9.0 built version on the cooker machine and

[Cooker] aviplay mms error messages

2003-02-03 Thread Serge Plüss
Hi

I am using aviplay to open a .ASF file which points to a mms:// location.

The first time I launch aviplay I can click on open, change the filetype, 
select the .asf file and it launches the station properly.

Now if I quit and relaunch aviplay I immediately get an error box stating:

'The protocol 'mms' is not supported

clicking ok brings up the same error message another 3 times and then aviplay 
launches and immediately brings up the Open video file(s) dialog box. When I 
change the file type to .ASF... I immediately get another one of those same 
errors.
I click ok, then select the .asf file and the station starts to play properly.

If I delete the folder .avm from my home dir then aviplay starts properly. But 
after that it has re-created the .avm folder and the default file has a 
reference to the mms url last opened.

This is on current full cooker installation. I downloaded and compiled aviplay 
from source on a 9.0 box and it doesn't behave that way. I never get that 
error message.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions/help/comments.

 libqt3-3.1.1-5mdk provides the /usr/lib/qt3/lib directory and it installs a
 symbolic link for libeditor.so  pointing to libeditor.so.1.0.0
 But libeditor.so.1.0.0 is not part of the rpm.

 I removed the rpms and reinstalled them and it does the same thing.

Re: [Cooker] No fonts found

2003-01-16 Thread Serge Plss
Well, here is my interesting discovery.
I moved all the A* fonts out of /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/drakfont/ttf to a 
safe location and boom, I was able to launch mozilla, menudrake and drakconf. 
So I thought I was lucky and just one of these fonts was broken.
Then I started to move one font after another back in and each time I was able 
to launch those programs.
But if I reboot, boom, programs won't start anymore.
So I move all the A* fonts out of that dir, launched those programs and then 
rebooted. After the reboot I couldn't launch any of these programs again with 
the error message about no fonts found.
After playing a little more with it I came to the conclusion that it doesn't 
matter which fonts I move around.
After a reboot I need to su to root, move a group of fonts (such as A* or a* 
or B* or any one of them), launch one of the above programs, then quit that 
program, move the moved fonts back and voila, until the next reboot I can use 
all the programs with all those fonts.

luck.
So I wonder now if the only solution to this 'problem' (as only a few people 
have reported it) is a total clean install of the system or if there is 
another way to 'solve' this?

I had reported this problem as well before as first I had just seen that 
mozilla wouldn't start (no errors output but strace kinda indicated that it 
was exciting in the font part) but then other applications (like drakconf, 
etc) would give me the same error about No fonts. All this started with 
the updates on Monday December 30th.
This was/is on a full cooker that was installed from scratch early to mid 
december and just being updated every other day with urpmi --auto-select 
-auto  No special tinkering with any settings. Just using Mozilla to 
browse and KMail to check email and listening to mp3's.

One contributor suggested a workaround to at least be able to use the apps 
in question by :

declare -x GDK_USE_XFT=0

But this doesn't really solve the problem but at least you can use the apps.

[Cooker] Mozilla, drakconf and other programs fail to launch..

2003-01-06 Thread Serge Plüss
Hi

I reported earlier that after the urpmi update on Monday December 30th mozilla 
would fail to launch.
This had been a clean Cooker 9.1 install from early december and mozilla and 
drakconf had been working properly.

After doing to the urpmi --auto-select --auto ... on that monday morning 
mozilla would not launch anylonger. Not having able to resolve the issue I 
would just run the urpmi every morning and see if it would work again, 
uninstalled and reinstalled mozilla, removed the .mozilla directories, etc. 
So far no luck. 
Then today I tried to launch drakconf and it also failed to launch. But it 
gave me the following error message:
-
drakconf --verbose
No fonts found; this probably means that the fontconfig
library is not correctly configured. You may need to
edit the fonts.conf configuration file. More information
about fontconfig can be found in the fontconfig(3) manual
page and on http://fontconfig.org
-
Now, since the original install of the fresh cooker and doing the urpmi's 
every morning I had not touched anything about the fontconfigs. Now obviously 
something that got updated on that december 30th must have caused this to 
brake.
I checked the file /etc/fonts/fonts.config and the paths that are in there 
exist and have fonts in them. Also tried running fc-cache and no luck.
Would love to be able to find out what it is and how this can be fixed without 
reinstalling the whole cooker from scratch.
Here is the listing of packages that got updated that day. I read something 
that the latest XFree was doing something with Xft2 stuff but haven't been 
able to make sense of it for my current issue.

Thanks in advance for any information or tips

Serge

[Cooker] Mozilla on the latest cooker still not launching

2003-01-03 Thread Serge Plüss
Hi

well, now that the mirrors have started to work again I was hoping that doing 
all the latest updates would get mozilla to go again but no luck.

This is a full cooker installation and the latest mozilla was working properly 
until doing a urpmi --auto-select --auto -v on December 30th.

Sent a message to that and had some replies from others having the same issue.

mozilla is not giving any error messages, just doesn't launch. I tried to 
delete the .mozilla dir but no help, even though it recreates the dir when 
trying to launch it.

If there is any other steps I can take to give you more useful information 
please let me know.
As mozilla rpm's hadn't been touched with those urpmi I wonder what other 
packages could have 'broken' it.

Serge

[Cooker] Mozilla won't start since last urpmi --auto-select --auto ....

2002-12-31 Thread Serge Plüss
Hi there

Since the last urpmi --auto-select --auto -v for the latest cooker mozilla 
(whose packages didn't change with that last update) won't start anylonger.
These are the mozilla packages (not changed in that update):
mozilla-1.3-0.alpha.1mdk
mozilla-mail-1.3-0.alpha.1mdk
mozilla-irc-1.3-0.alpha.1mdk

The file /usr/lib/gconfd-2 has a file date of Aug 26, so I doubt it was 
updated in this latest run.

So far the only messages I can see when trying to start mozilla (after 
emptying the messages log and also the user.log) are:

Dec 31 06:48:22 athlon-sp gconfd (spluess-2246): starting (version 1.2.1), pid 
2246 user 'spluess'
Dec 31 06:48:22 athlon-sp gconfd (spluess-2246): Resolved address

position 0
Dec 31 06:48:22 athlon-sp gconfd (spluess-2246): Resolved address 
xml:readwrite:/home/spluess/.gconf to a writable config source at position

Dec 31 06:48:22 athlon-sp gconfd (spluess-2246): Resolved address 
xml:readonly:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults to a read-only config source at 
position 2
Dec 31 06:50:22 athlon-sp gconfd (spluess-2246): GConf server is not in use, 
shutting down.
Dec 31 06:50:22 athlon-sp gconfd (spluess-2246): Exiting
Dec 31 06:50:22 athlon-sp gconfd (spluess-2246): CORBA_ORB_destroy: ORB still 
has 2 refs.
Dec 31 06:50:22 athlon-sp gconfd (spluess-2246): ORB: a total of 7 refs to 4 
ORB objects were leaked

Mozilla itself is not giving any error messages. Just never launches. I tried 
deleting the .mozilla folder. Same result. Then I tried deleting the .gconfd 
folder (as this was the only thing showing up in the log). Still same result, 
except it adds another line to the above output:

Dec 31 06:55:30 athlon-sp gconfd (spluess-2246): Unable to open saved state 
file '/home/spluess/.gconfd/saved_state': No such file or directory

Any other things I can look for or try to get it back up running or get more 
information for what might have cause this break in the last cooker update?

Thanks in advance for your suggestions

Serge

 FYI to all you people who mirror cooker's contribs.
 Someone moved contribs.  It used to be in contrib/RPMS and i586

 to the i586 dir.

 It would have been nice if someone at Mandrake had let us know *BEFORE*

ftp.sunet.se  still has both RPMS and i586 as folders:

Re: [Cooker] Re: [CHRPM] kdelibs-3.1-0.beta2.11mdk

2002-10-31 Thread Serge Pluess
After just installing the latest cooker yesterday morning I wonder why 
the Mouse KDE Control Module has Single-Click to open file and folders 
selected, yet I have to double click on icons/folders/treeviews/...
I understand that the clicking on the treeview and not getting the display on 
the right is a bug that hopefully gets fixed but shouldn't the Single/Double 
click at least follow the settings from the control panel?

P.S. How do I get Single Click (as I like the single click) back in the 
meanwhile, if not through the control panel?

Thanks

[Cooker] Background in KDE on Cooker from 10/29

2002-10-29 Thread Serge Pluess
Hi

just installed a fresh cooker from 10/29 and tried to change the
background for KDE.
I right mouse click on the desktop, click on Configure Desktop
and click on Background.

Then under Images I see the default entry:
/usr/share/mdk/backgrounds/default.png

If I add an or multiple image they show up in that list. But if
I click Apply and then OK nothing happen. If I go back to that
same Control Module again the lines that I had added are gone.

If I remove the default.png line and add another one again 
nothing happens. The background doesn't change to the newly
selected graphic.

So I tried to manually change the line in:
/home/user/.kde/share/config/kdesktoprc
under [Desktop0]
WallpaperList=.

And still when I launch X and KDE the background is still 
showing the default.png one.

[Cooker] Mdk 9.0 Recompiling Kernel for Athlon

2002-10-27 Thread Serge Pluess
Hi there

today I thought I would look into recompiling the kernel.
First thing I wanted to try is to just change the processor
type to Athlon (Got a 1Ghz Athlon Thunderbird).

Did the make dep
then make bzImage
then make modules
then make modules_install
then make install

Now I rebooted and bang. Big kernel panic's. I have
a / partition with ReiserFS and a swap partition.

the error message was on the reiserfs module not
finding something with mmx. Even the old kernel
wouldn't boot anymore. 
Was able to boot from the floppy though.
Compiled ReiserFS into the kernel, not as module.
This time it booted further but lot's of modules failed with
messages about various things mmx not found.
Like the following one:
modprobe: unresolved symbol _mmx_memcpy

So right now I am recompiling the kernel and setting the cpu type to i586

[Cooker] 3Com USB Camera causes X to freeze on startup with MDK 9.0

2002-10-07 Thread Serge Pluess

Hi there

I installed 9.0 from scratch on a ABit Mobo 
with a 1Ghz Athlon, 512Mb Ram and a
Geforce2 Ti Graphics card.
On the USB ports I have a 3com USB PC Camera
which is basically a Vicam cam. Under XP I use
the Vicam driver due to the fact that 3com stopped
supporting the cam.

Install went pretty smooth just as all the beta's
and rc's, including the X configuration test.

Now when I went to start X the system froze with
a black screen. Not even Ctrl-Alt-Backspace would
bring it back. So resetting is the only solution at that
point.
One thing I noticed is that during startup of the system
the green LED on the Cam comes on and stays on.
Under windows the led only comes on when the cam
is actually in use.

If I unplug the cam X will start just fine and dandy.

Here is the output from dmesg which shows some
error for the vicam driver.

[Cooker] MDK 9.0 Drakfont just hanging

2002-10-06 Thread Serge Pluess

Hi

installed 9.0 final and drakconf just hangs when trying
to install the windows fonts that are on the C drive which
is a Fat32 partition.
No matter which approach I am trying it hangs and if
I do a ps ax command I see the line:

3124 ?D  0:01 /usr/bin/perl /usr/sbin/drakfont --embedded 35652050

and all I see in /var/log/messages is:

Oct  6 20:37:00 thunder drakfont[3124]: ### Program is starting ###

Thank you

Re: [Cooker] RC2 vs Radeon 7500

Well RC2 has corrected my problems with my Mobile
Radeon 7500 on my Dell Inspiron 8100. So it's strange
you would still have problems.

[Cooker] Mdk 9.0 all beta's/rc's 3Com USB PC Camera causing X to lock up

2002-09-10 Thread Serge Plüss

Hi

gone through the whole install with RC2 successfully including testing of 
the X configuration.
After reboot if I want to launch into X the system locks up.

I have a 3Com USB PC Camera connected to the system (identifies it as 
vicam) and when I launch X I see the light on the camera come on.
If I unplug the Camera X starts properly.

[Cooker] RC2 Install + Drive Icons

2002-09-09 Thread Serge Plüss

Hi

just installed RC2 and noticed that it didn't place icons for the floppy 
nor the two cdrom drives on the desktop.

It did it on the same machine for all the beta's and rc1. Is this intentional?

Also noticed that during installation when it asked which version of X to 
install the left button said 4.2.0 . Will that stay that way or will it be 
named 4.2.1?

[Cooker] RC1 install problem between CD1 and CD2

2002-09-05 Thread Serge Plüss

Hi

just tried a fresh install of RC1 on a generic Athlon System. Did the 
expert install with a / and a swap partition and selected a lot of packages.
The system started to copy files. Then it ejected the first CD and asked 
for the second one. When I insert the second CD it keeps on being ejected 
and I am asked to place the 2nd CD in the drive.
I noticed that the the box is saying it is trying to copy Gnome 2 Help Browser

After searching a little bit I found out that yelp.xxx is located in the 
Mandrake/RPMS folder on the first CD.
The second CD only has a Mandrake/RPMS2 folder and that one includes 721 
objects.

So now I am not sure if it is trying to install yelp or if it is not 
finding whatever next file it is trying to install.

Thanks for any information

Re: [Cooker] 9.0 RC1 : Dell Inspiron 8100 + ATI Radeon Mobile 7500 X config problems

Hi Jason. 

I tried what you suggested, renaming the theatre_drv.o
file. At first try it generated an error, saying
module theater couldn't be found, but I tried again
and now it seems like X works.

But I still think that Mandrake should try to
recompile all the DRI file by taking them from the DRI
project (http://dri.sourceforge.net) and not those
included in XFree which seem to have problems.

Regards,
  Serge Huber.

[Cooker] 9.0 RC1 : Dell Inspiron 8100 + ATI Radeon Mobile 7500 X config problems

2002-09-03 Thread Serge Huber


Hi, 

I just wanted to report serious trouble after testing
Linux Mandrake 9.0 Release Candidate 1 on my laptop.

Here is shortly the configuration : 

Dell Inspiron 8100
ATI Radeon 7500 64MB
UXGA LCD 15 1600x1200
512MB RAM
PIII 1.2Ghz
IDE 30GB

Basically, all goes well during the install until I
get to the X configuration. Then I select for the
graphic card : 

ATI Radeon

and for the display : 

Dell 1600X

I then say I want to test the configuration, and not
only does the screen go black, but it never returns to
the configuration. All I could do was CTRL+ALT+DEL.

I had already had this problem with Mandrake 8.2 and
was hoping to seeing it fixed. I suppose you must have
been unaware of it as it is still here. I did manage
to fix it under 8.2 by downloading the DRI project
source and recompiling it and installing for my
computer. Maybe this would be a good idea to do this
for 9.0 RC 2 ? 

If you need more details, please let me know.

Best regards,
  Serge Huber.

[Cooker] Beta3 and SnapScan1212u

2002-08-20 Thread Serge Plüss

Hi

after clean install of Beta3 I use the Mandrake Control Center to try to
configure the Agfa SnapScan 1212u. It says it detects it and asks me if I
want it to be configured and I say yes. An icon is placed on my desktop for a
link for Xsane to /dev/usb/scanner0
I then copied the Snapscan1212U_2bin file to /usr/local/etc and edited the
/etc/sane.d/snapscan.conf file to point to that file.
In the same file I also changed the device to be /dev/usb/scanner0 and I then
used the agfafirm script to load the bin file onto the scanner.

But if I try to use the link created by the Control Center I get an error
that there is no such device.

I then used sane-find-scanner and it properly finds and identifies the
scanner.

By looking further I noticed that the /etc/sane.d/dll.conf file only had one
line in it with the word
###
net

I added snapscan to that file and voila I was able to scan.

Shouldn't the Control Center Scanner utility add that line when it says it
configures that scanner and that it is ready to use?

Thanks

installed beta 2 and forgot to unplug the 3com USB Camera. Install went

The camera also had the led on (as being active) after the system came up.

Now if I tried to launch X with startx I would get a black screen and the

If I unplug the Camera X comes up fine.

Just tried to install 9.0 Beta 2 a couple of times without success.

The mobo is an Abit KT7A (With the highpoint raid controller). For this 
test no Harddrives attached to the raid controller.
One IBM 80Gb Harddrive attached to the primary IDE controller. One 
Panasonic DVD and one Lite-On CD Recorder attached to the secondary IDE 
controller.

Chose the Expert install and went successfully through the whole install 
with one reiserfs partition for / and a swap partition.

After successful install upon booting I get the following error:

Unknown bridge resource 0: assuming transparent

I get the same message if I try fail-safe mode.

Installing 8.2 on the same partitions with all the same configuration works

Also tried Suse 8.0 and it installed fine on those same partitions.

[Cooker] 8.2 RC1 install and cooker updates

2002-03-15 Thread Serge Pluess

Installed 8.2 RC1. Overall great experience. I tried to go through the 
mailing list and through other archive/google searches and managed a few 
things that I couldn't figure out completely. I apologize ff it has come up 
before and it has slipped passed me.

The only thing I noticed from the regular install has to do with the 
network settings.

The install asks for the following settings for the network:

Hostname:
DNS Server:
Gateway:

I put in the FQDN with the hostname, so  machinename.mydomain.com

After the install is through I can't ping any machine on mydomain.com. So I 
check the various configuration files and find the following:

resolv.conf has the following entries:

   search localdomain

   nameserver xxx.yyy.zzz.qqq

Then I look at the file /etc/sysconfig/network and see that the HOSTNAME is 
set to
machinename.mydomain.com but the DOMAINNAME is set to localdomain.

At this stage I can't ping hostnames on my network without the full domainname.

So I add the line domain mydomain.com to resolv.conf  and now I can ping 
hostnames without the domain. I also change the DOMAINNAME line in 
/etc/sysconfig/network to reflect mydomain.com.

I checked on a Redhat 7.2 machine and saw that resolv.conf doesn't have the 
domain line in it and the network file doesn't have the DOMAINNAME line but 
I can ping hostnames on my domain without the full domainname.

Not sure where else to look for this.

The next thing I noticed is when I do updates with the current cooker is 
that it updates bootsplash among other things (version is 1.3.9-1mdk). Now 
with the new one installed the graphical screen disappears and only the 
Mandrake logo shows up under the kernel version. Then I get a black screen 
with the white text for the few init lines. On shutdown I get a black 
screen with a blue bar going accross the bottom.

So I uninstalled the update and then reinstalled the one that came with RC1 
(1.3.8-1mdk) and still the same result. Can't get it back to the graphical 
way of just after the RC1 install.
Also reran lilo and also tried to recreate a new initrd.

This happened also when I did a bootsplash upgrade with Beta 4.

Next install is the emu10k1-tools-0.9.4-1mdk as I have a SB Live 5.1 with 
Digital Boston Speakers.
The rpm installs the needed files like /usr/bin/emu-config , 
/usr/bin/emu10k1-ctl (why was this one renamed from the original package??) 
and /etc/emu.conf where I set the Digital Speaker option to Yes.

If I run the command /usr/bin/emu-config -d manually then everything works 
fine. The documentation then says to add the following lines to the 
/etc/modules.conf :
post-install emu10k1 /usr/bin/emu10k1-ctl

That doesn't work. Only got it to work by adding the following line instead:
post-install emu10k1 /usr/bin/emu-config -d

But that circumvents the use of the options file in /etc

And last but not least :-)  I have a Geforce 2MX 400 and I downloaded the 
newest drivers from NVIDIA (source files for GLX and kernel).
Both compile and install go smooth and X starts properly and all 3D apps 
work great.
But if I reboot I can't start X unless I do a insmod NVdriver manually as 
root first.

The line it puts into modules.conf is:
alias /dev/nvidia/* NVdriver

I tried to change that to :
alias char-major-195 NVdriver

but it still doesn't get loaded at boot time. The only way so far I found 
is to do the manual insmod NVdriver after every boot. (I know that these 
are proprietary drivers and this might not be the right place to discuss 
issues with them, but still thought I would at least mention this).

Ok, I think that's it so far. Am looking forward to the released version 
and see if the above issues will be gone or maybe there are some simple 
fixes for them.

Thank you

[Cooker] Beta 4 and resolv.conf issues

2002-03-07 Thread Serge Pluess

Hi

Just installed Beta 4 as a clean install in Expert mode.

One thing I noticed throughout all the Beta's so far is that when
you are asked for the network information you are asked for
hostname (where I enter my FQDN machine.mydomain.com), 
ip address etc but the resolv.conf doesn't reflect the domainname
in the search domain entries.

The only entry there is  search localdomain . This is also the
name that is listed in /etc/sysconfig/network in the DOMAINNAME
line, even though the HOSTNAME shows the FQDN

So usually (Beta 1 - 3) all I need to do is to change the resolv.conf
to search mydomain.com and I am rolling.

Not so in Beta4. I cannot ping machine as I get unknown host.
If I do a nslookup it successfully resolves machine to machine.mydomain.com

also if I type in the command host I get the FQDN machine.mydomain.com

I even started to try changing the lookup orders in host.conf and
nsswitch.conf but still no success.

On startup everything loads with no failure, dmesg shows no errors and I just 
did an update 
to packages from cooker as of this morning and still no go.

Thank you

Serge

P.S. BTW if you do a network install with the network.img image
  instead of the CD's then it asks during the network configuration if
  you want to retain the information entered during the booting of the
  floppy and then it actually puts that information into the resolv.conf
  But in this instance with Beta4 still a nogo to just use the machine name
  without the domain part for any commands like ping, etc.

Ok, I did the command you asked for and am attaching the output to this
email. When I directed the output to the text file I got two lines that
reported as errors:

 booh, that's not the install that busy the cd :'-(
 i'm adding yet again more verbose logs.
 
 maybe you can have a look anyway:
 
 ls -l /proc/*/fd/*
 
 should do.

[Cooker] SBLive and Digital Speakers

2002-02-08 Thread Serge Pluess

Hi

I have a Soundblaster live 5.1 with Boston Accoustic Digital speakers 
connected to it.

Mandrake 8.1 and the 8.2b come with a working SBLive driver but not with the 
emu tools necessary to configure the Soundcard for digital output.

Would be a nice inclusion to the distro. Maybe at one point it will also be a 
'checkable' option in the one of the various Mixers or other 
gui-configurations available.

Serge
