I will need assistance with the packet-writing support.

[Cooker] setting up nfs export installs a new kernel!
On a machine freshly installed with beta4 (hadn't gotten around to cooker updates yet) I was playing luser and just clicking stuff in mcc seeing what I could break. I went into NFS shares and it started to install nfs-utils (not surprising since I only selected workstation packages during the install). But very surprisingly, it installed a new kernel! Heh, it's bad enough that mcc progs install rpms without confirming (I know I'm not alone in feeling this way), but it's really bad when it installs kernels.

[Cooker] gtk tabs not clearing
Using libgtk+1.2-1.2.10-25mdk. Has anyone else noticed that gtk apps that use tabs (multi-gnome-terminal and galeon are the only two I know of) don't clear away a tab that you've closed? It's merely failing to redraw that section of the screen. If you shade/unshade or momentarily cover it with another window (or anything triggers an X redraw), it will be correct again. This is a recent bug, I don't think it was present in beta3. It's present in beta4 through current cooker.

Or perhaps editing the bastille config file and setting things the way you want? As long as we're just debugging this beta OS humor me and just disable the firewalling see if that does what you want Then maybe provide the list with your findings, suggest some changes, etc But please leave the rants at the door thx On Sat, Mar 02, 2002 at 10:15:29PM +, richard bown alleged: Hi all I 've had to go back to 81 Whatever you have done with security is a disaster Telneting in to the public interface, ie the one connected to the internet,,impossible no matter what, and rules are loaded to iptables, all thats eeen is martin errors in the syslog I use xinetd for port redirection to another machine behind the firewall this did exactly the samemartian errors, and heres the worst bit afetr running for 10 hrs , all attempts to send mail and receive mail got connection refused errors, smtp, pop3,imap all the same, checked with the isp, 1 hr on the phone not at their end loaded 81 and mail again QED I dont know who is responsibe for the mandrake security MSEC and whatever, I suspect gated is being used, but nothing showed on a ps ax Whoever should realise that not every one want a system which can only work one way I need to be able to telnet, ssh from anywhere in the world This is absolutely USELESS to me if I can only use it from home Xinetd redirection works well under 81, so does bastille-firewall the same config scripts were used on 82, so again where is the backawrd or even in this case forward compatability Ok the 3d side is good, none of the problems with the later kernels on 81 In its currrent state 82b3 is a TOY not a working system, and as for comments like add to hostsallow on the remote machineshould'nt need to, it was fully functional before 82b3 you guys are so paranoid over security, this time you've gone far too far MSEC level 99 is not required I logged into a machine in the States, Seattle, and tried telneting to all the ports that are redirectedmartian errors tried port 22 ssh,,,martian errors it did manage to return a ping I also saw tcpdump being turned on and off with ipv4 errors If any one wants something on the networking side tested no problem If the ipip tunnels had'nt functioned, 82 would have been off in 1/2 hr interfaces that are labelled as internal fuctioned, as did lo external interfaces would not function Flushing iptables had no effect system in use 700MHzduron , 512M ram 10GB hd, kernels 2417-19mdk 2418-2mdk In its current state 82 could not be released as it cant be used as a server shame it looked good on the install, apart from the freeze when trying a live update, If a table of bug levels I'd put this one on Egyptian level BR Richard

(yet another reason...) root logins are hard to account from looking at logs. If you *only* su to root, then you always get a clear bob su'd to root message. This becames more important in larger shops where lots of people may have the root password.

[Cooker] boot messages, md-personality-2
I'm not sure append=quiet ... for the default kernel is a good idea. When I boot, all I get to see is a few harmless kernel error messages: request_module[md-personality-2]: Root fs not mounted and 2 stray [OK] that just appear by themselves. Under that framebuffer, everything is working normally. But I have to admit, I was really freaked out when that message was *all* I saw =P It would be better to have *no* output messages then to show *only* the error messages. It's easy enough to have another lilo entry that works normally.

[Cooker] beta3 install notes
MDK 8.2beta3 == total ownage! Great work everyone! I spent several hours yesterday trying to get dri working on my new Dell (Radeon VE) after installing redhat 7.2. After compiling a new kernel, new xfree86, new drm and ati (from gatos), it still didn't work. Gatos and ati's drm seem to be really disorganized. After installing beta3, dri worked out of the box, all hardware was perfectly detected and configured. I'm now happily playing Chromium within 30 seconds of completing the installation :) A few minor notes: During the installtion, I was mucking around with the disk setup and noticed that if you failed to format a partition, you get a mount failed error message that doesn't help very much. It would be nice if the error message, at least, listed which filesystem(s) failed to mount. On the Package Selection page, Scientific Workstation doesn't have a popup description. Also, the popup decriptions need a border or a contrasting color background. During the package installation, the Internet and Messaging page has text that overlaps the icon at the top, kinda awkward looking. Same with the Games page, and the MandrakeCampus page. Some awkward English during the package installation pages: 09-MDKcampus.pl: and most of all free way?, sounds odd to me, but I can't think of a concise way to say it better. 12-MDKstore.pl: available on our e-store, did anyone else cringe when they saw the buzzword-complient term: e-store? 13-Nvert.pl To access to more commercial informations, please contact us on the following toll free:, is just wrong. How about, For information on our commercial services, please contact us at the following toll free number: Also, at least in the US, the 1 is seperated from the area code like 1-877-MDKCORP or (877)-MDKCORP. I prefer the first form. Want to get to know the Open Source community. Be a Part? Set root password, if the passwords don't match, the cursor should return to the first password box. The Summary page looks awkward with 5 rows (mouse, keyboard, timezone, printer, and sound card), but only the first 4 have buttons to change those settings. Sound card is floating around looking really weird. It leaves the user wondering if it should be a button. Pretty insignificant stuff so far. Again, great work! PS: I just had the error, sendmail: fatal: No maildrop directory maildrop: No such file or directory when trying to send this email. I had to manually run 'postfix check'. Any chance this could be done automatically? Perhaps the postfix init script should handle this.
[Cooker] can't disable face browser in kdm
My machine is part of a large NIS domain with over 60,000 users. KDM actually handles all of those face icons surprisingly well. It only takes an extra 20 seconds or so to get the login window. However, I'd really like disable that feature. I can disable it in the KDE Control Center, and I see the changes made to /usr/share/config/kdm/kdmrc. But somehow that feature keeps getting reenabled when I reboot. Perhaps there's a particular package I can uninstall? Until this is fixed, I'll just stick with runlevel 3 (this is actually the first time I've bothered with runlevel 5)

[Cooker] gconfd-1 won't start
I've yet to get GNOME to work in 8.2. The gnome desktop starts up without
