I don't know of any way to do it bash, either. But, if you know
that Perl is installed (via other dependencies, or whatever),
you could run a little Perl script from bash to tell you which
endian is in use. E.g.,
endian=`perl -e 'if (unpack("V", pack "L", 0x1234) == 0x1234) {print
"l";}else{print "b";}'`
will assign either 'l' or 'b' to $endian.

[Cooker] Undefined Symbol in latest libfontconfig1 crashes KDEINIT
Undefined Symbol in latest libfontconfig1 (2.2.1-6) crashes KDEINIT Tried submitting this to Bugzilla, but would not take it, so here it is: Trying to start KDE with the latest packages, XFree starts and a dialog box pops up on the top left corner stating: Could not start kdeinit After pressing Okay, crashes back to console. Three errors show, and they are all related to: libfonfig.so.1 Stating in part: Undefined Symbol: FT_Get_BDF_Property Recently upgraded system from pre 9.1.

[Cooker] [Bug 1562] [kernel-2.4.21-0.pre7.0.2mdk] gdb doesn't seem to work
http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1562
--- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-25-08 12:02 ---
2.4.21-0.25mdk works for me on a machine which displayed the bug before.
Many thanks I no longer need to use an old kernel.
Machine is an IBM T23 with 900HMz PIII (376MB RAM, 1GB swap) and Mandrake
9.1 + 2.4.21-0.25mdk installed. All partitions are XFS.

As the poster of bug 1562 I don't understand how it ever got
closed. Development systems using gdb under Mandrake 9.1
with XFS file systems still only seem to work if a non 9.1
kernel is used (see bug 4000).
Please reopen this bug!

Negative. The script does it's probing, and spits back information, but
does not send the serveraid into it's death spin. Any other suggestions?
This certainly seems like a show stopper to me.

Upgraded my system to 9.1RC2, still can't run gdb.
Should have said that my system is an IBM T23 laptop with a 900MHz
P3 (376MB RAM, 1GB swap) so it doesn't look like it's dependent on
the CPU type to me.

[Cooker] samba-server-2.2.7-1mdk is good stuff!
I had a problem after installing samba-server-2.2.6-4.1mdk where Windows would/could not update our users roming profile. When they logged in they would get a message about "Your local profile is newer than blah, blah, blah" and their desktops would always be the same since I installed 2.2.6-4.1mdk. Installing 2.2.7-1mdk fixed this. Thanks everyone for the wonderful software. Bill Shirley PS. Yep, I'm a member of the club.
RE: [Cooker] MDK 8.2, 1024 MB RAM
I would suggest running memtest86 (test #5). I have purchased PC133 memory twice that fails test #5. Memory not up to spec causes all kinds of strange errors. I have been running 8.2, and now 9.0 for some time on kernel large memory support. No problems (other that a weak power supply causing spontaneous reboots - replaced with 400W).

RE: [Cooker] BUG: chkconfig true is false
Thanks for your reply. It really clears things up. > In shell scripts, 0 is true, 1 (or any other non-zero) is false, > allowing for error codes. > How counter intuitive!! I have had beginning C programming, (so I'm an expert now :-) and false is zero and true is anything not false. It's a crazy world we live in. So: [root@elmo cron.hourly]# chkconfig innd on [root@elmo cron.hourly]# ! /sbin/chkconfig innd || echo "Running nntpsend"; echo $? Running nntpsend 0 [root@elmo cron.hourly]# chkconfig innd off [root@elmo cron.hourly]# ! /sbin/chkconfig innd || echo "Running nntpsend"; echo $? 0 works correctly. And if I change the two scripts in /etc/cron.hourly: [root@elmo cron.hourly]# cat /etc/cron.hourly/inn-cron-nntpsend #!/bin/sh ! /sbin/chkconfig innd || su - news -c /usr/bin/nntpsend [root@elmo cron.hourly]# cat /etc/cron.hourly/inn-cron-rnews #!/bin/sh ! /sbin/chkconfig innd || /usr/bin/rnews -U then I should get a return code of zero no matter whether innd is turned on or off and thus no email from cron. Who should make this change? Bill Shirley
[Cooker] BUG: chkconfig true is false
I am getting an email from cron every hour when /etc/cron.hourly/inn-cron-nntpsend runs. I found an bug in chkconfig: [root@elmo cron.hourly]# chkconfig --list innd innd0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off [root@elmo cron.hourly]# chkconfig innd; echo $? 1 If I read the man page correctly, this should give a zero return code because innd is not included in this run level (which is 3). And then: [root@elmo cron.hourly]# chkconfig innd on [root@elmo cron.hourly]# chkconfig --list innd innd0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on4:on5:on6:off [root@elmo cron.hourly]# chkconfig innd; echo $? 0 should return a 1. It is REVERSED. This causes: [root@elmo cron.hourly]# chkconfig --list innd innd0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off [root@elmo cron.hourly]# cat /etc/cron.hourly/inn-cron-nntpsend #!/bin/sh /sbin/chkconfig innd && su - news -c /usr/bin/nntpsend to run the nntpsend command even though innd is turned off. Now the second problem. bash appears to be not using the return code of the last command in a && situation: [root@elmo cron.hourly]# chkconfig --list innd innd0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off [root@elmo cron.hourly]# /sbin/chkconfig innd && su - news -c /usr/bin/nntpsend; echo $? 1 [root@elmo cron.hourly]# su - news -c /usr/bin/nntpsend; echo $? 0 The man page reads: The control operators && and || denote AND lists and OR lists, respec- tively. An AND list has the form command1 && command2 command2 is executed if, and only if, command1 returns an exit status of zero. An OR list has the form command1 || command2 command2 is executed if and only if command1 returns a non-zero exit status. The return status of AND and OR lists is the exit status of the last command executed in the list. To sum it all up: when /etc/cron.hourly/inn-cron-nntpsend runs, I get an email saying: run-parts: /etc/cron.hourly/inn-cron-nntpsend exited with return code 1 because chkconfig gives a reversed result and runs the nntpsend command. bash is using the return code from the chkconfig command (1) instead of the nntpsend command (0) and cron is reporting it. How do we fix chkconfig and bash? Bill Shirley

[Cooker] RC3 - SCSI scanner and IDE tape problems
I am running rc3 as an upgrade from a clean install of rc2. The system looks great, these are some problems I am having. 1. Scanner not configuring. It is a Microtek Scanmaker X6EL, detected as a 636. It is detected fine. excerpt from dmesg: ... VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem).

This doesn't work now in either rc2 or 3. No scsi device was created. ide-tape seems to work, I can use the mt command to get status. Let me know if I can provide further information. Thanks, Bill
RE: [Cooker] Postfix + SASL problem
I created /usr/lib/sasl/smtpd.conf when I set up Postfix + SASL on my LM 8.2 system accourding to how-to's. I think it should be in the postfix installation as well as /etc/pam.d/smtp. It will not hurt anyone who is not using SASL auth. [root@elmo postfix]# ls -l /usr/lib/sasl/smtpd.conf -rw-r--r--1 root root 71 Sep 19 11:26 /usr/lib/sasl/smtpd.conf [root@elmo postfix]# cat /usr/lib/sasl/smtpd.conf #pwcheck_method: saslauthd pwcheck_method: pam #pwcheck_method: sasldb [root@elmo postfix]# ls -l /etc/pam.d/smtp -rw-r--r--1 root root 152 Sep 17 22:06 /etc/pam.d/smtp [root@elmo postfix]# cat /etc/pam.d/smtp #%PAM-1.0 auth required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth accountrequired /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth After looking how I have smtpd.conf setup, I appears that I am NOT using saslauthd and therefore my "ln -s" was useless. My smtpd.conf says to use pam. I've tried so many combinations. I had thought I tried this and it failed. Maybe I forgot to do a "postfix reload" or maybe I didn't have the smtp file in /etc/pam.d . Any way, I am happy that I got it working and will get glad when someone figures out how to get smtpd to auth through saslauthd. Until then I'll have to leave: [root@elmo shorewall]# ls -l /etc/shadow -r--r-1 root postfix 1888 Sep 11 14:52 /etc/shadow so smtpd can access shadow.

Ah, success. saslauthd puts it's socket (file called "mux" in /var/lib/sasl and sasl client tries to connect in /var/state/saslauthd directory, which does not exists.

RE: [Cooker] Postfix + SASL problem
Just an update. I ran across an idea from a forum on the net and put garbage in smtpd.conf and postfix/smtpd complains. That says smtpd is reading the file and permissions are ok. SASL apparently doesn't use what's there. I've tried it with pwcheck_method: pam, pwcheck_method: saslauthd, and pwcheck_method: sasldb. I still get: "SASL LOGIN authentication failed". I copied an /etc/pam.d/smtp file from a friend's 8.1/8.2 system I helped set up, mine was removed when I upgraded, and no joy. I started saslauthd -pam -T -d (debug mode) and it gave no messages. (There is no documentaion on saslauthd switches. :-( My conclusion is that whoever packaged the postfix? rpm knows enough about what changed to remove /etc/pam.d/smtp and rename /usr/lib/smtpd.conf to smtpd.conf.rpmsave. Why do this? I think it's supposed to authenticate through saslauthd now, but it doesn't for some reason. Anyone have any clues? Bill Shirley PS.

[Cooker] Linuxconf + devfsd bug
For a long time now, when exiting linuxconf, it states that some of my services on my system are not running (saslauthd, httpd) when if fact they are running and doing a: service httpd status reports them as running. I don't know why. However, on one of two systems I have running 9.0 rc2 linuxconf says: "Missing configuration file /etc/devsfsd.config for service devfsd". The file is actually /etc/devfsd.conf. Where can I fix this? TIA, Bill Shirley

I have spent all day googling to find out WHAT CHANGED to break smtpd + SASL. I spent quite a few nervous hours when I could not boot my system. It seems the developers of LILO decided that if you specify a software raid device (boot=/dev/md0) that they should NOT write to the MBR like they did in the previous versions. You have to add: raid-extra-boot="/dev/hda,/dev/hdc" to write to the MBR. AH, I feel better now. But truly, thanks for all the hard work you guys put in to make things easier for us.

Re: [Cooker] If ns4 removed, a link needs to be created to mozilla
Does anyone have any more information on this - search of mozdev and google doesnt turn up anything interesting. The mozilla "prefs.js" which has a version string gets overwrittem when the browser starts.

Re: [Cooker] If ns4 removed, a link needs to be created to mozilla
Bad move removing Netscape. I keep tripping over websites (especially banking!) that wont accept other than netscape 4.7/8 or ie. In some, even the menu script in the web page tests for netscape ver 4.?, refusing galeon (reports itself as ver 5) and mozilla. Wish galeon had the ability of konquerer to report whatever version you want, but then konquerer has other incompatibilities and wont display the pages for other reasons (flaky java support?)

Re: [Cooker] laptop config rpm?
Love the idea. Having one of these beasts and just getting the knowledge to set it up has been a long haul - but worth it in the long run! Too late for 8.2, but in the next release would allow Mandrake to "take over" the laptop Linux market! - no competition in sight, a perfect niche!

Re: [Cooker] 8.2 beta4. bug Mdk Update.

And I would dare say that a good portion of the newbies coming over from windows feel the same way.

[Cooker] gurpmi and deps location
Is it possible to *simply* make gurpmi look first in the directory that you may be in, for deps for a given file you are trying to install. In other words, I don't want to have to go into rpmdrake to setup my directory locations for gurpmi to have to find deps that are right there in the directory I'm already in. For example: I wanted to install gpr. I changed directory into my RPMS directory. I typed in gurpmi gpr* and it came back that it needed to satisfy some deps, ok to install? After clicking OK, it started to download the deps from the Cooker site I previously had set up in rpmdrake for updates. This was stupid because the deps were already right there in that directory. It would have been simple if gurpmi would have simply looked in the default directory that I had started it from first. Or, it could bring up a dialog box asking if the deps are already located on your system (if it didn't find them in the default directory that you are in), and if yes, ask where they are located (and then remember that location to look in if it doesn't find them in the default directory that you are in when you run gurpmi again for another install), and if no, ask if you want to download them. --Bill

Yes, it would be very nice to have in 8.2! I personally don't need it with DSL, but I have customers that could really use it.

[Cooker] Splashscreen, Invalid Video Mode, & S3 ViRGE (generic) ViRGE/DX or /GX
After Installing kernel-2.4.18-2, it set the video mode in lilo.conf to: vga=788, or x600 in 16 bits (FrameBuffer only) in MCC bootconf. I use a PCI S3 ViRGE (generic) ViRGE/DX or /GX video card, and while trying to boot with the above command line for video, it starts to boot then says something like: Invalid video mode, press 'Enter' to see the different modes available, or type in 'scan'.

[Cooker] MdkInst - Ext3 Mounting
Another problem I have found with MdkInst, is that it finds and mounts my Ext3 partitions as Ext2. This can be a real problem since there can be times that mdkinst locks up, or can't complete for some reason, or won't unmount properly, or some other reason, so leaves these partitions in a problem state. -Bill
[Cooker] MdkInst - Mount Failed
A couple of bugs I reported in Mandrake Forum on Jan 27th, and at least the top one is still broken: If you want to do an upgrade with mdkinst, either normal or packages installed only, and you have had the HD partition mounted in your running install (fstab) that has your /Mandrake/RPMS directory in it, mdkinst gives an error: 'An error occurred. Mount failed: Device or resource busy', and you can't go any further. You can't even Exit properly, it just keeps bringing back this error dialog (actually the installer will eventually crash if you keep clicking on Exit). You have to go back and *edit out* the HD partition in fstab that these install files are on, then rerun mdkinst, and then it will work correctly. In other words, it looks like mdkinst is trying to mount this partition twice. Once at the beginning of the install when you are telling it what HD partition the packages are on, and second when it gets to the diskdrake area during the install. mdkinst locks up if you try to format the swap partition in diskdrake. (This may be fixed-- haven't test this bug in a while) -Bill

Re: [Cooker] How to make XFdrake better in 30 seconds.
Maybe add some additional buttons Pixel. I believe every dialog should have a *Back* button and a *Next* or *Skip* button anyway. There are **many** times that we can't move around and get to the selection we want to get to directly. So we also need to be able to go to ANY selection, at any time, directly by clicking on the left panel as well. This would GREAT help in this area of the installer.

Re: [Cooker] NS4 gone?
My vote it to have NS4 back into the main release also. It is the only browser that just _works_ in many situations.

Re: [Cooker] Mandrake Debian?
Sorry Tim, but I agree with Jason. Remember Tim, that the LSB has chosen RPM, and so has Mandrake, so deal with it. :) Also, I don't really think that Jason was talking about releasing the distro as statlinked, only the add-on apps that can be downloaded. When I download an app, I really appreciate an RPM, and even better, I would appreciate a statlinked RPM at least be available that would save me a big headache when there is a dep problem. I download, install, it already has all it's own libraries that are right there in it's ver own directory that the install made, and I run!!! YEEES! I don't have to care about which version or distro of Linux I downloaded it for, because it doesn't care either!! It just runs! Have you ever downloaded, untared, and ran a Mozilla nightly? Everything right there in it's own directory. Click on Mozilla, and it just runs. Statlinks work the same way. Yes I compile my own apps as well (I've been running Linux 7+ yrs), but heck, statlinked RPMs would be much easier, and like Jason, I don't care about HD space, or the extra RAM that is used. Statlinked RPMs being available (as well as source) would go a long way in making life a whole lot more like a Windows install for those coming from that mode of thinking on how to install an app. Then once they get better, at least the source is still available. There are, I think, tens of thousands of people coming over from Windows daily worldwide (or at least testing Linux); we need to make life as easy as possible for them to come over, and install and run their favorite app. Statlinks would be a big part of that help. -Bill === Timothy R.

[Cooker] Peter Ruskins Country Code App
Many of us were asking ourselves and him what app he used to come up with this answer: [19:33 peter@penguin:~]$ country ro Country2 letter 3 letter Number --- Romaniaro rom 642 Well after some searching, I finally found this app on Freashmeat: http://freshmeat.net/projects/countrycodes/ It simply uses a makefile, and then drops this little binary into /usr/local/bin: iso3166 Rename it to country, and you have it.

Re: [Cooker] via-rhine broken in latest kernels
Juan thanks for the effort, but I had given up and bought a new network
card, and now I don't have a problem, as it uses differen't drivers.
A couple of other people told me I didn't have a problem, so apparently I
didn't have a problem.
Anyway, you say it's fixed, I believe you. :)

[Cooker] Suggestion: Mandrake Naming Layout Change
I suggest that each of the Mandrake tools have a small change in their naming layout for the directory listing, and for other reasons. The way it is right now, each of the tools are laid out in their name just a little different, which makes it hard to easily spot a Mandrake Tool. And sometimes one may not even know a certain tool is available for a given purpose. This is especially true since not all Mandrake tools are being installed in the Mandrake Control Center, which is something else I can't really figure out. All Mandrake tools should be in the Mandrake Control Center, IMHO. An example of the different ways the Mandrake tools are named: some have drak, others drake, others mdk in their name. And sometimes these pieces will be in the front of the name, others at the end. I suggest they all start with mdk, then the name, such as: transfugdrake would be: mdktransfuge drakconf would be: mdkconf, or maybe: mdkctrlcntr drakfirsttime would be: mdkfirsttime We already have: mdkonline And so on... I believe this would make a whole lot more since to all of us, but especially to the newcomers to Mandrake. This would also follow the three character mdk in the last part of the name, which ties all the Mandrake stuff together nicely. Any other thoughts on this?
[Cooker] Gave up on via-rhine drivers :(
Well I finally gave up on via-rhine drivers working again (unresolved symbols), even though I reported them here 2 times. This was a D-Link (DFE-530TX) network card for my DSL connection, and ran on via-rhine drivers. None of the latest kernels would get fixed. I had to keep going back to 2.4.13-12 to get the good drivers. :( Kudzu even found that D-Link card when it was installed and configured it (and it is now unconfigured by Kudzu), and the latest card I just purchased also (which Kudzu beautifully configured), which was fondly enough, advertised as *Linux compatible*. This allowed eth0 to load immediately at system startup, with no other intervention. I just hope that the via-rhine situation gets resolved before release for the next person that needs them. -Bill
Re: [Cooker] I cannot believe!!! Is it Windows or Linux?
I agree with you George-- Msec is definitely one of the tools that could use a frontend, just like we have one for rsync (DrakSync). I say again too these Drak tools should all be in the 'Mandrake *Control* Center', where we can *Control* all aspects of our Mandrake system. Maybe another heading? 'Other Drak Tools' ? === George Mitchell wrote: > Msec is a nice tool.

Re: [Cooker] Tar or BZip the mdkinst directory
If rsync is fast for you good. :) Some of us just want to download the whole thing. Why not have it both ways. The directory for rsync, and the file for a full download. -Bill === Borsenkow Andrej wrote: >>I suggest that on Cooker that we Tar or Bzip the mdkinst directory >> >into > >>a single file, and drop it into the Mandrake directory.

[Cooker] Tar or BZip the mdkinst directory
I suggest that on Cooker that we Tar or Bzip the mdkinst directory into a single file, and drop it into the Mandrake directory. This would speed downloading this directory of files considerably. Even on DSL, this download right now is so very slow with a gillion files and subdirectories. But if this was one file, it would be much faster with either modem or broadband. Once downloaded, a quick untar to the Mandrake directory, and boom, we're in business. Would this single file concept also work for the distro as well?? I don't know, as it would require a temp directory on the HD somewhere. Regardless, at least for Cooker, this would be a great help. -Bill
