To maintain equal spacing between the vertical wires, the aperture grill has two (one on displays 14 inches or smaller) horizontal damper wires, which hold the vertical wires in place.

Re: [Cooker] Some wishes for Mandrake 10.0...
Le Vendredi 24 Octobre 2003 05:31, BOUTELIER Sébastien a écrit : Hello ! I have some wishes for the Mandrake 10.0... First of all, is it possible to include in the Mandrake Controle Center a module for Bittorrent ? This module ask the user where to save the files, his login and password of mandrake club and that's all, the download start. This module can verify the presence of a proxy or a firewall, configure shorewall and give some advices to the user. I think the newbies will be happy with this ! No more FAQ or problem of python dependencies... You could use this system to download Beta or RC when we are in Beta or RC period. Good idea, but is this necessary ? From Mandrake Club, the link https://www.mandrakeclub.com/torrent.php?f_=x.torrent calls Bittorrent. Bittorrent-shadowsclient is very nice and should replace the old version. Some features should be include: - a link to http://torrent.mandrakesoft.com:6969/ - an indication about the overall requested download bandwith and the available upload bandwith. - a message or a vu-meter to show the balance between upload and download. When download is over, ask for don't stop upload. My fourth wish is perhaps a detail but is it possible to have an option to synchronize the time with a NTP regularly in the date and time module of MCC ? (in fact use a ntp command with cron or at internet connection). Never call a ntp server with cron! This is the best way to overload a ntp server if several people do that. Instead, use ntpd which is provided to call the server when needed and does the best drift compensation for local clocks. The first aim of ntpd is to make your time accurate, which is absolutely necessary to become a server... if needed. PS: Raaah ! I speak english like Babelfish ! I so!

For curiosity I opened them again like mentioned there and I'm getting normal speeds 0k down and normal 20k up. I'm trying to say it makes more difference who you share with rather than all this other garbage. If there are others sharing nicely you get good downloads if they limit their upload to really small amounts and dont leave the torrent open when it's done then you get bad speeds. But really this is to say thank you to those who shared. BY the way when that happens with the same network settings on my firewall I get about 20k down and 20k up. It's the people that make the difference. I use bittorrent-shadowsclient-5.8.4-1mdk.noarch.rpm which allows to see the torrents working. (Advanced). Perhaps can you see my PC : 82.65.11.65 (now).

Le Dimanche 19 Octobre 2003 04:26, Brook Humphrey a écrit : Ok I need to say this. I always get really cruddy torrent speed and everybody says punch a hole in you firewall which I have not and will not do. Torrent works fine on my end without messing with the firewall. However i always get speeds of like 6k and below for about the first week. Now after a few days I'm getting it at like 50k a second and will have the last 50% downloaded in just about 6 hours. That is compared to about 4 or 5 days to get the first 50%. I have not changed any config options at all. The outgoing I have not caped and it has been consistent around 8k or so for the last week even though i was not really getting anything in at all. Thanks to all of you leaving your torrents turned on. I had the same problem with a decreasing dowloload speed rate. To solve it, open your firewall ! Why ? I'll try to explain. First, use download/bittorrent-shadowsclient-5.8.4-1mdk.noarch.rpm from http://rpms.mandrakeclub.com/rpms/MandrakeClub/test/9.1/i586/BByName.html It replace the old bitttorrent and shows the torrent with a click on Advanced. Don't hesitate to use it. When starting a download, bittorrent opens ~20 links which can upload or download few k/s (often 2 or 4ks). The sum of them can reach your maximum bandwith. Each link uses a different port. If you open the window Advanced, you can see in the third column LocalRemote that all the links are L like local. This is because they was initiated locally. The firewall (or shorewall) accepts links of any port initiated locally. Few time later, the column shows L and R links. The R links are Remote links, initiated from outside. If the firewall is not opened for ports 6881..6999, never appears. With hours, the number of L decreases and number of R increases. Now, only upload works at 13k/s (download is finished for 48h) and I have 38 peers : 34 R and 4 L. If you don't open your firewall, you can understand why the DL rate is low! How-to open the port ?

I have carefully read the comments and limited upload at 11KiB/s. IMHO, BitTorrent must be improved and tuned to allow a better repartition of the bandwith.

Re: [Cooker] [Mandrake 10] Ideas for RpmDrake [long]
Le Mercredi 8 Octobre 2003 09:18, Vedran Ljubovic a écrit : I mostly agree wtih your ideas. - Packages have cryptic names kde-konqueror-3.1.3-1mdk.i586.rpm That's just scary. A typical Windows user would never install anything having a name like that. - Descriptions are too technical That's true. This is _now_ the main difficulty for newcomers and the newbies. These last days, I have shown to 4 women (40-50 years old) how to install Mandrake and how to use it. They were not together. They understand everything including partitioning. Diskdrake is very good. But they had a great problem with the packages. They don't understand what is the use of each package and are not able to do a choice. The idea can be achieved with a status, ie: - A: programs shown in menus - B: plugins for these programs - C: programs in command line - D: libraries Then a newbie can select A only to avoid boring informations. Combining this with the the Menu and Rpm-Groups architecture (multimedia, gamesfun, network) it would give a better feeling to newcomers. I suggest also another class called usage : Recommended, Alternative, Why not, Deprecated. Writing better descriptions is not too hard, I for one volunteer to do that, but even with the finest worded descriptions users can still be at a loss about what exactly does each package do. That's why most beginner-oriented shareware CDs feature screenshots of programs they carry. Yes your idea is very good and ergonomic. As GC said, There would take very much diskspace, especially screenshots! To avoid this, it could be useful to create a database hosted by Mandrake: Main table Name: generic name of the software (primary key) class : program, plugin... usage : Recommended, Common, Deprecated. description : default description in english Localization table Name: generic name of the software (Foreign key) langage : fr, en, ... description : the description of the package author : author of the description date: automatic. The latest will be shown. link-home : home page of the project (ex: http://fr.openoffice.org/) screenshot : localized screenshot (name or URL of the file) Groups table Name: generic name of the software (Foreign key) group : Rpm-Group (a software can belongs to several groups) This is only a draft. I can participate to a full implementation of a database. Then it would be easy to export a localized description of each package if it exists. I suggest to use the club and contributors (people having an account) to fill the localized texts and screenshots. This database should be the first in the world and give the leadership to Mandrake because people want to be helped in their own language to find the software they need. But the most important issue is: - I don't want to install packages, I want to install programs Yes, at the beginning, but when needs are increasing, they have to have a look to the packages. My proposal with classes allows to suit with the needs. My proposition Here are some screenshots: http://members.smartnet.ba/vedran/mdkarp/screen1.png - I would like to use such a tool ! My proposition of a database don't breaks RpmDrake, it is only a complement and is along with your ideas. IMHO, it is a good way for a smooth evolution. RpmDrake can show the localized description if it exists without breaking it. Thank you for reading this enormous mail :) I'm not very good at English so sometimes it takes me more words to articulate my point. Anyway I hope there are some useful ideas here.

As GC said, There would take very much diskspace, especially screenshots! To avoid this, it could be useful to create a database hosted by Mandrake: several problems : 1°/ db loads form mdk 2°/ need an internet connection we'd better use a local lighweight db like sqlite ( http://www.sqlite.org/ , http://www.sqlite.org/faq.html ). The first time rpmdrake is launched or when a hdlist is modified, rpmdrake rebuild the database and then do everything after on this database. The difficulty is to sync urpmi/rpmdrake DB with rpm DB ( but you could think about the fact that when an rpm is inserted or deleted from rpm DB, rpm automatically update rpmdrake DB accordingly ). To my mind this could resolve our speed problems with hdlist computations at rpmdrake start and when performing queries. I could hope that sqlite may be far faster. I agree, sqlite is a good idea to replace hdlist. But I was talking of a another database, hosted by Mandrake, with true foreign keys, grants, rollback Like posgresql with integrity constraints. The sqlite database could be an extraction of the main database and this extraction could be included in the distro (like the localized man or howto). Query of the Mandrake database could be allowed to to Club members only. I like evolution instead of revolution. I don't know how is made the rpm database. I suggest to improve this management step by step. The first goal is to get a localization of the rpm. But to avoid to modify the rpms, this could be a separate database in a first step. I spoke at Metz with Martin Michlmayer (Debian project). They have the same problem. I dream of a common localization... why not ? Another idea is that a software can belong to several groups. The groups are defined in only one tree. This is not enough. It is possible to make other trees according to the job: Infography, webmaster, professional sound and music, secretary, and so on. In each profession, certian programs are very useful or not. My database structure can allow people (from club) to maintain a level of pertinence (ie 0..10) for each program in each group. For example OpenOffice would be scored 10 for a secretary and 2 for a webmaster. I worked during 23 years with databases (10 with Oracle), I wish to use my knowledge to help Mandrake. I don't forget that the aim is to help newcomers, to spare time and money to Mandrake and help the Libre Software. -- Pierre Jarillon - http://pjarillon.free.fr/ Vice-président de l'ABUL : http://abul.org/

The documentation is in file:/usr/share/doc/ntp-4.1.1/index.htm Use ntpd! Some people think that it is intended only to make a server. That's wrong! ntpd keeps the time from an atomic clock or from GPS or from another time server of higher level. ntpd calculates the drift of the clocks (software and hardware) and setup the drift compensations. ntp queries the higher level clock only when its is necessary, never at a fixed hour to avoid the crazy solution of ntpdate in /etc/cron.daily which makes the servers overloaded everyday! When ntpd is setup, the clock looks accurate and the computer can be used as a time server. But the first job of ntpd is to keep an accurate time.

That's what I did when some time ago I switched from Windoze and still gave a chance to revert easily, and it worked flawlessly being very Windoze friendly (I did not revert though, I've kept moving forward). - So I expected Mandrake 9.2 to cohabit with Mandrake 9.1 and easily revert, which proved more difficult than expected but worked in the end. My diagnosis is that drakboot makes the assumption that another Linux is in /boot and that taking into account another partition is not well managed hence this is more a request for enhancement than bug report). It could simplify life for the noobie (avoiding manual steps ). At first I pointed at lilo (see previous bug report http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=4829), now I think it's more an enhancement of drakboot to exploit lilo features to the best : provide a simple strategy to detect previous versions of Linux, in the same way it detects windoze. Enhancement Proposal : - detection of another partition with Linux - configure lilo correctly, either way : . identify the mount point (e.g. /mnt/linux-0) and configure lilo to take it into account (may require to copy files - as I had to do - to local partition /boot...) . obtain previous configuration and adapt/check it (as partition naming may have changed in between, as was the case for me) The point is to use the latest install to take into account previous ones (of course there are other possibilities), as I tend to expect the latest release not to break anything (it lowers immediately my confidence in it). What do you think of it ?

[Cooker] ALSA fix
Perhaps is it useful ? I just receive from [Alsa-user] It is a problem with Mdk 9.1 but Mdk 9.2 is not very different. [Alsa-user] ALSA Fix!!! I finally got it right! Ok I am running Mandrake 9.1 on a Sony PCG-V505BX. My original modules.conf was this: probeall scsi_hostadapter usb-storage ide-scsi probeall usb-interface usb-ohci ehci-hcd alias eth0 e100 alias sound-slot-0 i810_audio alias char-major-10-250 sonypi options sonypi minor=250 So I thought Hey I have a Sony Desktop with the same distro that has ASLA working on a i810 chipset.

This may fix other distros too! Hope this helps the rest of you too. ;) One more thing. Run it for a bit. For some reason it does not work with all apps right away.

[Cooker] [Bug 5913] [harddrake] can read partition table with Microsoft Fdisk program after LM install
http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=5913 --- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-22-09 22:51 --- I already encountered this problem and I solved it with a workaround. I'll try to explain with my poor english. Windows don't like a fat32 made by Mandrake. That's true. With windows 95 or 98, you can boot on the CD and make an install. Everything seems good but the first reboot said that the disk is corrupted. I discover this in february 2000 when I wanted to left a partition for windows in my new PC. Since this date, I have not any Windows at home ;-) The partition was left empty. Two years later, when I gave the computer to my daughter, she needed windows and I found the same problem. After several tries, I succeed. I found again the same problem a week ago. When installing Linux, create the window partion an format it with fat32 to make an entry in fstab and lilo. If you want install windows after Linux, delete the Windows partition (C:\) with diskdrake ! Then, Windows found an empty disk and format the free room. The windows install is then correct, the linux partitions are ignored and not erased. Last step, boot with rescue disk and run lilo to restore the multiboot. In case of windowsXP, NTFS is used and fstab must be updated. This is an old problem: at least 3.5 years old. IMHO, if this bug is too difficult, ignore it and write a workaround in good english. A warning can be shown by diskdrake in case of an empty windows partition at the beginning of the disk. -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. --- Reminder: --- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: ASSIGNED creation_date: description: I installed Linux Mandrake 9.2 rc2.

To reduce the amount of time needed and spent to make packages. being able to install the same package on the 2 distros ? Why not ? This is a good aim. I don't know the debian policy, but i know that our binary are not fully working on debian, and that mandrake naming scheme is different from the debian ones, so, dependancy will be unsatisfied. This is for LSB... And a long job... So, maybe you think of something which can produce the files neeeded to produce a package for each distro, which would be quite interesting, but, not so useful, IMHO. This was my idea. Your opinion is interesting. -- Pierre Jarillon - http://pjarillon.free.fr/ Vice-président de l'ABUL : http://abul.org/
