RE: [Cooker] rpmdrake auto-select

The thing is that, all those packages are needed to do.. just what it
says.. To satisfy dependencies. Without them the program might not
work properly.

If I choose a pacakge in rpmdrake that needs others to be installed,
up comes a window,
To satisfy dependencies, the following packages(s) also need
to be installed.
[long list]

(OK)


Sometimes I don't want to install all those other packages.

Please can you have a (don't install) button too, that doesn't
add the packages and doesn't add the one you selected?

But running rfbdrake from the commandline it runs fine and doesn't terminate after a 
few seconds.

If anyone has anything I could try, any trace to make, let me know.

I'm also attaching a strace for the specific pid when running rfbdrake from the menu.
Maybe it helps a bit.

Would it not be better if rpmdrake
would see.. ok.. this package is bad
but the others aren't and give the user
a choise to still install the other packages that
is not part of any dependencies for kdebase if any.
Just think if downloading the 60MB kdebase and then
the package right after it is bad.
Its not allways it keeps it in the cache.

Then you have to start all over again.

I noticed that when one of the selected (for install) packages is bad or
unreadable,
rpmdrake often draws the conclusion that all of the packages are bad.
I think it is because it does an rpm2header on all the files, and if it gets
an error
it adds all these files to the not_installed_list.

RE: [Cooker] rpmdrake bug

2002-07-29 Thread Tech At Mathco Dot Com

True, its allways possible to go back there and install
the packages manually. I think even urpmi is very limited
on what you can and can't do.

urpmi --auto-select

does a very good update, but it has the same limitations
as what rpmdrake does, due to rpmdrake uses urpmi.

Maybe its a limitation in urpmi or maybe rpmdrake can
keep a extra database of good downloaded rpms that
has the right dependencie.

[Cooker] KDE losing menues

2002-07-16 Thread Tech At Mathco Dot Com

I noticed that every once in awhile KDE 3.x in cooker seem to lose
some menu entry's and sometimes whole catagories. Also when this
happens the buttons on the bottom give error messages about missing
links. Then after a minute or two they work again. Almost like
KDE have to rebuild all the links and menu entry's.

Is this a bug in KDE or might it be something with
my system that I should check.

Also since I started trying cooker again my 24x10x40 Sony CDR/W
is not detected as a CD R/W anymore, I'm not sure if i have
append=hdc=ide-scsi in my lilo configuration. I'm sure this
is the case.

that's fatal indeed, I think you should just trust in Mandrake and go
ahead without checking. I mean, this is cooker, you will install it on a
spare partition, won't you? The worst thing that can happen is that you
get some depslist mismatch. So what, rsync your mirror and try again.

I got rsync working ok, trying to rsync the cooker
directory from sunet right now. But my problem is,
it keeps timing out on large files (i have dsl),

Right now i have to ftp the large files, just imagine the

ok i repost this e-mail since the first one didn't seem to reach the e-mail
list

I just tried to install the download version on a system containing the
following.

Microstar K7TTurbo2 Socket A Motherboard (Microstar)
Duron 1200 Mhz CPU
13 GB Western Digital Harddrive
48 X CDRom
128 MB PC-133.

Now to my conclution.

1.Installation too less then 20 Minutes. Then boot into KDE (from
pressing the powerswitch, bios detection
   Mandrake loader 7 second countdown till KDE is up and running fully
loaded. 1 Minute and 40 seconds.
   This is not bad at all.

2.After installation i plugged in a test USB to Ethernet adapter
manufactured by AMDtek,
   ran the connect to the internet program, The program found the USB
to Ethernet adapter
   and configured it to work correctly. I really did doubt it would
work. But it does. Great work.

3.Openoffice is still alittle slow to open, 35-40 seconds first time
(since it has to load the configuration software),
   15-17 seconds after that (after a cold boot). But i guess i can't
complain, its still awhole lot faster then on my
   old k62-300.

4.Sound works out of the box. Great.

So far i'm impressed.

Keep up the good work.

[Cooker] 8.2 Comments

2002-03-21 Thread Tech At Mathco Dot Com

I have tested Cooker for awhile now and I downloaded the release 8.2 ISO's
and they went in without any problems. I kind of find it a bit sluggish at
times
but then again what do you expect with a K62-300 and 256 MB ram.
I'm really satisfied with the product and I will bring it into my shop to
resell it
as soon as its avilable in boxed format.

The only _minor_ glitch that I found was when installing it on a system that
has onboard Built-in AC97 Digital Audio (by VT82C686B)
(Epox 8KTA3+Pro board). The sound would come out kind of low and I
would get like (sounds funny) *puff* sounds out of my speakers.
Well thats the best I can explain the sound. Maybe it could be some kind of
static or the sounddriver sends out some kind of signal every so often.

I didn't try the Release version on a board like this, maybe the gotten
better with
the newer kernel.

Also when installing a Realtek 10/100 network card in the PCI slot next to
the
AGP card seem to slow the system down when running Linux . Probobly cause
they both use the same IRQ. I guess its something to do with the IRQ sharing
(Windows doesn't have this problem with sharing IRQ's).

 I actually get the impression that windows will install on systems with

 I've seen at least 2 systems where Linux won't install, like it's probing
 hardware and finds a problem, but windows installs just fine.
 So far, this is just a theory, but I know windows can do strange things as
 far as recognizing hardware, and then when it misidentifies it, it uses it
as
 something else.



Yes thats true, Windows can do alot of strange things.

 Yes they are but you really shouldn't be using these files.  They
 probably won't be there much longer.  You should use the files in the
 Mandrake/iso tree not Mandrake-iso/i586/ tree (which is where you are
 seeing the rc1 files).

[Cooker] Evolution problem printing Calandar Appointments

2002-02-21 Thread Tech At Mathco Dot Com

It seems to be a problem with the fonts spacing when printing
from Calandar Appointments from Evolution 1.0.2.

What happens is. everything comes out fine except the
From and to time

for example Fri 02/22/2002 01:30 pm to Fri 02/22/2002 03:30pm

It seems this font is either too big or the spacing is not big enough
and the letters get printed into eachother. The preview looks
just fine. So my question is.. Is this a known problem with
Evolution? It doesn't do this anywhere else.

My printer is HP Deskjet 970c and i use cups driver with gimp support.
I also tried the recommended HP driver, but with the same result.

Anything i can try?

There is just one thing in the smb configuration tool

[Cooker] Depslist.ordered mismatch against hdlist files

2002-02-15 Thread tech at mathco dot com

I decided to make a clean install of cooker today.
I have my own mirror of Mandrake-devel from Sunet
mirrored with rsync and before doing a install i
made sure i had the latest version of everything
doing 'rsync -av --delete ftp.sunet.se::Mandrake-devel/cooker/i586
/home/cooker'

I did the install with the network.img file and it
starts up fine. But after choising the partitions
i get a error 'depslist.ordered mismatch against hdlist files'
then it throws me back to the partition editor.
Clicking 'Done' again brings up a screwed up program selector
with only 2 choises and hardly no text at all.

I guess this ahs to do with the problem with the desplist and hdlist
files.

I also deleted the base directory and downloaded it sgain but still
get the same problem.

First of all its comming along nicely.

So now for the bug reports.

1.  Mandrake Control Center allways puts itself on top. Every
program started after it will be loaded in the background,
and the Control Center covers it.

2.  There is no way to move the control center, since it doesn't
appear that the window itself have any move functions.

3   In Embedded mode, Everything under Hardware loads properly
except XFDrake. All that shows is a gray window.
Under MountPoints, All icons are black questions marks and none
of the programs will start.
Under System, Fonts won't load and console loads but is off
focus so typing in the window won't work. Even clicking the
mouse in the console window won't work. Also the icon for Logs
is a black question mark.

 This is not right Meaning, libsmb is telling you the right message.
 
 From the spec file:
 %attr(4775,root,root) %{prefix}/bin/smbmount
 %attr(4775,root,root) %{prefix}/bin/smbumount
 
 Which is, well, wrong : )
 smbmount and smbumount are simply front-ends to mount and umount (those
 need to be setuid root).
 
 So err s/4755/755 on that...

 had been somehow damaged, but in the preparation of this message, I tried to 
 burn a CD again, and it actually worked.
 
 I recently downloaded 8.2beta1 for testing.
 
 Following installation, my system froze during the boot process when 
 supermount began accessing my drives.
 
 I am using a Toshiba Satellite 3005/S303 which has a modular bay in which I 
 can have either the DVD/CDRW combo drive installed or the Floppy drive. 
 Naturally, I booted with the DVD/CDRW installed.
 
 There needs to either be a workaround to prevent supermount from locking up 
 if the floppy drive is not actually present or an errata to indicate that 
 supermount needs to boot with the floppy drive installed.
 
 Has anyone else met the same situation? or similar?

[Cooker] DrakConf 0.90-4mdk problem

2002-02-01 Thread Tech At Mathco Dot Com

Testing drakconf 0.90-4mdk i found it to do the following.

It starts up fine but doesn't have any kind of border oround
it.

When clicking on any of the icons it starts the programs behind the
main window. The icons on Mount Points are big black question marks.

On SAMBA mount point it would be a good idea to be able to insert
a username and password for who you wish to login as. Also some
servers like a NT PDC won't let you see the shares unless you
provide a username and password.
Also i did notice with smbmount if you mount a file system as root a
normal user might have problem writing to the directory.

Yes, by adding --delete to your rsync command. It will remove the older
files
and make sure that your directory matches exactly with the remote server's

dir structure it could wipe out your entire directory.

[Cooker] Experience with rpmdrake

2002-01-18 Thread Tech At Mathco Dot Com

First of all i would like to extend a great thanks
for the developers that created rpmdrake. Its a great
tool and I'm using it right now to update my system
to the latest cooker.

Now to some suggestions of improving the program.

1. During the file download maybe show a little moving bar
and maybe a text that shows what file is being downloaded
so you don't have to wonder If the download server
died on you.

2. When pressing cancel during file download doesn't kill
the process properly nore does it close the file transfer window,
and it still leaving the wget instruction running.

3. Maybe having a shorter timeout on wget (i know on my system
the servers soemtimes stop responding and it leaves rpmdrake
and wget hanging for hours and won't quit for nothing except
with manual kill).

Well that is just some requests. Keep up the good work.

Thanks

 goes beyond sound chip configuration itself.

 Matt,
 
 My experience is that harddrake is hosed up and will not configure
 this popular chipset.  The problem with sndconfig is that it hasn't
 been updated to work with the 2.4 kernel.  So here's the scoop.  Try
 editing /etc/modules.conf with a plain old text editor like kedit. 
 Add the following line:
 
 alias sound-slot-0 cs4232
 
 Then reboot.  This should enable your sound chip.  The line for the
 OPL3 is:
 
 alias midi opl3
 
 But so far I have not been able to get midi to work.  I'm convinced
 there is a kernel problem with OPL3.
 
 I have'nt tried mpu-401 external midi.   Adding:
 
 mpu-401
 
 to /etc/modules with the text editor should get that started.
 
 The 2.4 kernel makes things easy, no more dealing with IRQs and I/Os
 and such.  But there are still kernel bugs and config tool problems.
 
 Someone will likely suggest using ALSA rather than OSS with something
 like 'alias sound-slot-0 sound-card-cs4232' and 'alias midi
 sound-opl3'. That's fine.  But don't expect OPL3 to work.  My
 experience has been that It is hosed up under alsa also.

[Cooker] New Abiword from Cooker still crashes

2002-01-17 Thread Tech At Mathco Dot Com

Even after updating to the new abiword on the cooker updates it still
crashes with incompatible libpng.

Anyone knows what I could try to get it working?
Shouldn't Abiword have a dependency to a libpng-1.0.12 package and require
it to be installed sincd its compiled against it?

  abiword works fine on my system. I upgraded my libpng, libpng-devel and
  recompiled the necessary original src.rpm (libgdk-pixbuf2, libgtk etc.)
  from Mandrake 8.1. Though I find it strange that it requires libpng.so.2,
  these messages do not appear on my system. They appear for some kde

Re: [Cooker] Crystal 4235 soundcard problem

2002-01-17 Thread Tech At Mathco Dot Com

It seems like its working now, I upgraded to the latest devfs and it
seems to have fixed the problem. But the volume is kind of low since
there is no Master Volume control in the mixer function on the cs4232
module. But now i can get my sndconfig to pick it up and i can hear
linus and the midi configuration works.

Thanks for all the help.

 Matt,
 
 My experience is that harddrake is hosed up and will not configure this 
 popular chipset.  The problem with sndconfig is that it hasn't been 
 updated to work with the 2.4 kernel.  So here's the scoop.  Try editing 
 /etc/modules.conf with a plain old text editor like kedit.  Add the 
 following line:
 
 alias sound-slot-0 cs4232
 
 Then reboot.  This should enable your sound chip.  The line for the OPL3 is:
 
 alias midi opl3
 
 But so far I have not been able to get midi to work.  I'm convinced 
 there is a kernel problem with OPL3.
 
 I have'nt tried mpu-401 external midi.   Adding:
 
 mpu-401
 
 to /etc/modules with the text editor should get that started.
 
 The 2.4 kernel makes things easy, no more dealing with IRQs and I/Os and 
 such.  But there are still kernel bugs and config tool problems.
 
 Someone will likely suggest using ALSA rather than OSS with something 
 like 'alias sound-slot-0 sound-card-cs4232' and 'alias midi sound-opl3'. 
  That's fine.  But don't expect OPL3 to work.  My experience has been 
 that It is hosed up under alsa also.

[Cooker] kdebase 1:2.2.2-19mdk = HELP WHERE ARE MY ICONS.

2002-01-12 Thread Tech At Mathco Dot Com

Well the subject says it all.
I upgraded the kdebase and kdebase-devel 2.2.2-19mdk
and it appears to be broken. It removed all my iconimages (the linkx are
still there) on the kicker bar and the menu.If moving the arrow over any
of the icons on the desktop resulting in the background goes blue and
all the icon images disappears from the desktop leaving only the words.

Also on the kdm login screen the mandrake star is gone now and none
of the little faces shows anymore *sniff sniff* i want my mouse face
back LOL.

Any ideas what i could try?

Thanks

I know you can put them in your .bashrc but its only

yes they sure are there. I tried to post the directory listing

Maybe someone from Mandrake can check this one out.

While that is a workaround, that shouldn't be the Mandrake response to the
problem.  Shouldn't devfsd save these links if they are created once?  Then
there should be an RPM which creates them initially, and devfsd needs to be
configured to save them.
