What is your recommendation then for those who never use KDE 
or gnome for that matter.Installs with necessary printer programs
drivers etc has not always been intuitive and at times would involve searching
down the log lists of rpms to find various missing elements to actually
enable proper printing...I have always had good luck with the results of your 
hard work but am now a little confused as to what to do/look for and 
suggest to others installing Mandrake without KDE/Gnome yet wanting full
printing and GIMP functionality. !!??

[Cooker] Install XFce by default

2002-02-10 Thread William Bouterse

I  would like to second Peter Ruskin's call for more respect shown for XFce 

Bsides being amazingly stable and full of useful surprises in it's own right, native 
KDE and Gnome apps run faster on XFce on my machines and are very stable.
On older machines with less ram the differences are even more remarkable !!

How about the latest rpm for LM 8.2 instead of the older one now
buried DEEP in the basement of package choices.

Very stable release 3.8.14c has been out for awhile now

[Cooker] SiS - ymfpci still broken ?

2002-02-09 Thread William Bouterse

Anyone have sound working yet with this chip?
Has been broken for some time
Will it be broken for 8.2?

My cooker (a week or two old with some updates) is sound-dead and it has been a 
confirmed bug for some time..

.Confirm ymf740 and SiS 7018 do not work in 8.2.  SiS also does not work in 8.1, 
at least not on ECS boards with SiS 730/735 chipsets.  This is amazing 
because SiS is the most linux-friendly of the chipset makers, and their 
driver for the sound has been in since 2.3.40  The ymf740 is on an SiS 530 
Chipset and works fine except on the prototype 8.2.

It takes 3 days or more to download ISO's as well as 
extended battery power and generator fuel (being off-grid) 
so would like to know before I try again!?

Last time it worked for me was 8.0freq

[Cooker] XFce for LM 8.2b faulty

2002-02-09 Thread William Bouterse

Being an XFce user for my main productivity work for several years
and being a Linux Mandrake user/advocate/tester often presents unnessary hiccups...
First of all the mindboggling hunt to actually find the package buried
about as far down as a package can go without ceasing to exist

Olivers fantastic WM is also usually slightly mangled in its default 
Mandrake packaging.. For instance in 8.2b switchin a user from the default
KDE to XFce sees a cannot create file permission problem which can
be rectified by 'xfce_setup' however the average user would not know this.

The KDM login problems seem to have finally sorted themselves out 
for the most part, thankfully.

Is there a reason you are not able to get
latest rpm directly from xfce into the 8.2 cooker?
There is an excellant xfce-3.8.14c-1 out right now...

Also I've heard rumours, that though Oliver lives 800kms away in Toulouse he would be 
glad to discuss the problems over a bottle of Cabernet at the local bistro with a 
Mandrakesoft staff member if one was in the area !!:)

 I am wanting to deliver a Mandrake 8.2 Linux based laptop system to an

[Cooker] devfs=nomount

2002-01-14 Thread William Bouterse

cooker20011224

I have finally tracked down an ellusive scsi-scanner prob
previous posts re:xsane,scsi-scanner/CDRW  etc

The oft mentioned;
 append= devfs=nomount
in /etc/lilo.conf seems to have done it!!!

cdrecord --scanbus ..finds it
sane-find-scannerfinds it
xsane finds it and brings up the dialog...
gimp linked to xsane works fine.
The CDRW


Of course this is Not LM 8.1 but cooker20011224!

It worked with LM 8.0freq+updates/extras
Disappeared with fresh cooker install

Hope this makes sense to someone? Would be nice to
have it functional without append before final 8.2 !?
Am considering having newusers do test installs when
LM 8.2 is released, on this  machine

[Cooker] module-sg not loading

2002-01-09 Thread William Bouterse

cooker20011224
It appears  that the sg module is not being loaded 
at bootup and probably effects LM 8,1 according to recent posts on
the expert-list.
See the subject: Xsaane-cooker20011224 
for a background on my  search for a
solution to the problem of a previously working scsi scanner
and CDRW not being activated eventhough thry were acknowledged
on boot up and in /proc/scsi/scsi
This happened after installing cooker200112124 from a working 
LM 8.0freq +extras

#modprobe sg

...did the trick for me so a simple solution to several hours
during several days worth of effort... My scsi scanner,CDRW now work...
I  put it in /etc/rc.d/rc.local for now but this is
not an acceptable long-term solution I would think.?
...Another not-new Mandrake user actually had to 'mknod'
as the /dev/sg#s were missing . 

I sincerely hope LM 8.2 will not have this !!!???

Xsane was working from my previous LM 8.1x install

I installed cooker 20011224 with generally good results.
however this is one glaring change I would like to remedy ASAP


My ancient but reliable scsi-scanner IS recognized
xsane is linked with gimp fine.

Trying xsane from terminal or gimp giets VERY long search
for scsi devices and then gives no devices available
This used to be a few second process if a device was not attached,
 now 5 minutes !!! Of course this time the device IS attached and recognized as a 
scanner at boot..

This is xsane-0.82-1mdk
sane-backends-1.0.6-2mdk
sane-frontends-1.0.6.1mdk

/proc/scsi/scsi shows my scanner ...

Don't know if this is a cooker issue but

[Cooker] A SmartMedia Reader Anyone

After no luck so far with my Sandik sddr55 ImageMate,
(see previous postings i.e. ImageMate) and no luck with

I have spent 150 $ on two readers without success.

I have researched through lunux usb smartmedia...etc

I have clenched my jaw, muttered curses, gotten bleary eyed staring
at howtos, log files etc.

DOES ANYONE HAVE A WORKING USB READER FOR SMARTMEDIA

 Which one (model or USB vendor/product; class would be interesting as

YES I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW THIS AS WELL 

The SDDR33 seem to have better luck but not the SDDR55 though 
the Sandisk website say they BOTH are supported in the 2.4x kernel


 
  It is detected, but 
  I have to do a 'modprobe sd_mod' if I boot without the media in the 
  drive. 
Okay I did that again just in case.
 
 See suggestion to add
 
 above usb-storage sd_mod
 
 to /etc/modules.conf. It may be below as well, does not matter in this 
 case.

okay I added 
alias usb-storage sd_mod
to /etc/modules.conf

though as you mentioned in my earlier sandisk postings 
it is NOT being acknowledged by my system as being loaded
 
  I have a 'storage=yes' in /etc/sysconfig/usb.

okay I went ahead and did that
  
 
 
 Should not be needed actually ... as long as it is supported variant.

So I am still getting the usual;

#mount /mnt/smartmedia

[Cooker] sandisk ImageMate

2001-10-25 Thread William Bouterse

I recently purchased a SanDisk ImageMate for SmartMedia
due to their providing drivers for the linux community.

I am using;
kernel 2.4.12-3mdk
LM 8.x +extries
The sandisk drivers appear to be already compiled into the kernel
their directions are plug it in, it should work

I even read Brian's input re SanDisk in a recent cooker posting.

However, after a week of reading, browsing, configuring, 
including the Sandisk howto ...no luck

[Cooker] ImageMagick failed deps?

2000-07-30 Thread william bouterse

This may have already been addressed?

[root@home bill]# rpm -Uvh  ImageMagick*
error: failed dependencies:
libbz2.so.1 is needed by ImageMagick-5.2.2-4mdk
libdps.so.1 is needed by ImageMagick-5.2.2-4mdk
libdpstk.so.1 is needed by ImageMagick-5.2.2-4mdk
ImageMagick = 5.2.0 is needed by perl-Magick-5.2.0-4mdk

Checking on 
[root@home bill]# rpm -Uvh dpsftplib-0.1.6-2mdk.i586.rpm 
dpsftplib-devel-0.1.6-2mdk.i586.rpm
package dpsftplib-0.1.6-2mdk is already installed
package dpsftplib-devel-0.1.6-2mdk is already installed

Obviously I am missing something and will readily admit 
my ignorance if I could be pointed in the right direction?

I went ahead and did the --nodeps routine (which installed)
but wondered what was going on here?

 You have only already installed the dpsftplib package, the version you
 try to install is the same version installed  on your system.

Excuse my inability to get my point across. Better put could
have me saying the packages that ImageMagic were said to
need I thought were in the dpsftplib-rpm which I had installed?
If not what packages were the error messages referring to?
i.e.ImageMagick-5.2.2-4mdk
 libdps.so.1 is needed by
ImageMagick-5.2.2-4mdk
 libdpstk.so.1 is needed by
ImageMagick-5.2.2-4mdk
 
  I went ahead and did the --nodeps routine (which installed)
  but wondered what was going on here?
 
 man rpm ?
The 'nodeps' question was ment to refer to the over-all missing deps
problem I was having rather than 'nodeps" itself but I certainly 
appreciate such a civil response to such an elementary sounding
question.  remember the time not so long ago that a "what is nodeps" 
would have seen multiple,"RTFM you idiot" responses :)
Are you-all mellowing or something.? I find it very professional!!!

Don't know.  But seems like dpsftp* needs to be
rebuilt too.

 ImageMagick = 5.2.0 is needed by
perl-Magick-5.2.0-4mdk

Looks like this needs to be rebuilt.

So does this apply to something I "user/alpha/beta-testor"
should do or is this a Mandrake issue?

I have been off the List for several months getting relocated
to a more rural area of Alaska and am not sure if the procedure
has changed any? Now with slow dial-up access I can only 
download a few cooker rpms at a time, try them out and report 
back to "The List" . Is this acceptable practice?
I am using hybrid L-M 7.0/7.1/Cooker.

Thanks
