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. /MattB -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Liam Quin Sent: Thursday, August 15, 2002 3:41 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Cooker] rpmdrake auto-select 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?

RE: [Cooker] rpmdrake bug
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.

[Cooker] KDE losing menues
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.

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. /MattB
[Cooker] 8.2 Comments
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.

[Cooker] Evolution problem printing Calandar Appointments
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? /MattB

The application is comming along really nice I must say. There is just one thing in the smb configuration tool that I would like to have added.

This is a suggestion and i wish it to be added to the features list. Thanks /MattB
[Cooker] Depslist.ordered mismatch against hdlist files
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. /MattB

[Cooker] Comment about latest Drakx
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.

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.

[Cooker] DrakConf 0.90-4mdk problem
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. /Matt

[Cooker] Experience with rpmdrake
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 MattB

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.

All apps still use the older device files anyway or are compatible to the old way. This way you won't have to rebuild the links everytime. Devfsd delivers more greave than it's worth.

[Cooker] CD Rom Mount Problem
It appears when using rpmdrake it keeps mouting the cdrom drive multiple times, which causes a problem when irpmdrake asks for a specific cd. - Captured from Console - [mat@teche cdrom]$ mount /dev/hda5 on / type reiserfs (rw,notail) none on /proc type proc (rw) devfs on /dev type devfs (rw) none on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,mode=0620) none on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw) /mnt/cdrom on /mnt/cdrom type supermount (ro,dev=/dev/scd0,fs=iso9660,--,iocharset=iso8859-1) /mnt/floppy on /mnt/floppy type supermount (rw,sync,dev=/dev/fd0,fs=vfat,--,iocharset=iso8859-1,umask=0,codepage=850) /dev/hda1 on /mnt/windows type ntfs (rw,iocharset=iso8859-1) /mnt/cdrom on /mnt/cdrom type supermount (ro,dev=/dev/scd0,fs=iso9660,--,iocharset=iso8859-1) /mnt/cdrom on /mnt/cdrom type supermount (ro,dev=/dev/scd0,fs=iso9660,--,iocharset=iso8859-1) /mnt/cdrom on /mnt/cdrom type supermount (ro,dev=/dev/scd0,fs=iso9660,--,iocharset=iso8859-1) /mnt/cdrom on /mnt/cdrom type supermount (ro,dev=/dev/scd0,fs=iso9660,--,iocharset=iso8859-1) /mnt/cdrom on /mnt/cdrom type supermount (ro,dev=/dev/scd0,fs=iso9660,--,iocharset=iso8859-1) /mnt/cdrom on /mnt/cdrom type supermount (ro,dev=/dev/scd0,fs=iso9660,--,iocharset=iso8859-1) /mnt/cdrom on /mnt/cdrom type supermount (ro,dev=/dev/scd0,fs=iso9660,--,iocharset=iso8859-1) /mnt/cdrom on /mnt/cdrom type supermount (ro,dev=/dev/scd0,fs=iso9660,--,iocharset=iso8859-1) /mnt/cdrom on /mnt/cdrom type supermount (ro,dev=/dev/scd0,fs=iso9660,--,iocharset=iso8859-1) /mnt/cdrom on /mnt/cdrom type supermount (ro,dev=/dev/scd0,fs=iso9660,--,iocharset=iso8859-1) /mnt/cdrom on /mnt/cdrom type supermount (ro,dev=/dev/scd0,fs=iso9660,--,iocharset=iso8859-1) /mnt/cdrom on /mnt/cdrom type supermount (ro,dev=/dev/scd0,fs=iso9660,--,iocharset=iso8859-1) /mnt/cdrom on /mnt/cdrom type supermount (ro,dev=/dev/scd0,fs=iso9660,--,iocharset=iso8859-1) /mnt/cdrom on /mnt/cdrom type supermount (ro,dev=/dev/scd0,fs=iso9660,--,iocharset=iso8859-1) /mnt/cdrom on /mnt/cdrom type supermount (ro,dev=/dev/scd0,fs=iso9660,--,iocharset=iso8859-1) /mnt/cdrom on /mnt/cdrom type supermount (ro,dev=/dev/scd0,fs=iso9660,--,iocharset=iso8859-1) [mat@teche cdrom]$ /MattB
