[Cooker] DrakX v1.422
I just tired to install cooker about 15 minutes ago and ran into a problem. I managed to get to partition which worked fine except failed when trying to mount the formated partitions. Failed with No such device at /usr/bin/peril-install/fs.pm line 218 I'm trying to install from my second drive off a reiserfs partition onto my first drive which is formated with ext2.

Seems libkonsolepart makes the console work - 'cause it doesn't since i loaded the update. Weird - Konqueror will NOT run of run from a shortcut - yet runs ok from the KDE "run" command in the start menu. Some things are fixed - like the right side scroll bar for pages longer than the window, which was broken in the last version that worked, however some pages still don't render correctly - for example http://www.sfnb.com. The Netscape version loads graphics and other stuff, which Konqueror doesn't. I reported this to the KDE bug list, and they almost immediately closed it out - said works fine there (?) Secure sockets has a problem (?) got a message "the process for the https:vault.sfnb.com protocol died unexpectedly" - works ok from Netscape. Any ideas or suggestions? Vincent Meyer I downloaded from same site yesterday to update kde. I checked that page you said konqueror would not loads but it works fine for me (http://www.sfnb.com). Any problems with any links not working in kicker is same problem I had here I just backed up all my bookmarks and other few other things in ~/.kde directory and deleted it and loged back in everything works fine after that seems as if some configuration files changed a little?, so updates won't read the format correctly?

Re: [Cooker] Unofficial KDE update rpm's - Updated
I really enjoy the updates provided by the Unofficial KDE rpm's. The feel speed wise seems to have stepped up for me, all around seems faster then before. Seems to me couple added cosmetic bugs (terminal does not work in transparent mode, screensavers are out, no support for netscape plugins = won't access them) seemed to be balanced what seems to be more stable konqueror(for me anyways) the icons all actually appear for me unlike before, My girlfriend thinks the zooming icons are great, (she like large easy to click on icons), In general like the look and feel is better then before, I think they should be released as a official update. :o) Naz _ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.

Re: [Cooker] beta3 bugs (fail to detect nic during install)
Thats good that someone else has the same problem with there nic card, hehe thought I was doing something wrong or maybe just going crazy! But everything was the same for my system. What going on with Kde Media Player enqueue I clicked on a mp3 file and it tried starting but never does and then suddenly everything under kde starts being really sluggish have to log out and back in to make it so the mouse pointer runs without skipping. Another thing I was playing around with was dragging and droping which has some serious problems again under kde problems with lag? Is this Mandrake specific or something for them kde developers are working on? I can confirm this same problem. When I installed beta 3 on each of my 2 computers and selected cable modem, the installer gives the message: "No ethernet network adapter is currently configured on your system. Please run the hardware configuration tool." But as soon as I run linuxconf, it finds the device and sets up the drivers. I still had to do "ifup eth0" to kick dhcp after linuxconf finished the setup and exited. The 2 nics I use are PCI NE2000 clone (rtl8129?) and a 3COM 3c900 (3c95x). Also, another issue during the install. After the network install fails, it goes to the Time Zone setup. Once this is complete is returns to the network setup, fails again after repeating the inputs for the same nic, then again goes into the Time Zone setup. This repeats endlessly untill I choose 'Disable network". Then it skips over the printer setup! Cheers, Rob _ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.

[Cooker] beta3 bugs
I have a couple problems with beta3 that I wanted to report to the developers. My mouse was usable but during the mouse detection part of the install it was not detected and I had to do that manually with no wheel support, my mouse is a Logitech m-s48. Another problem is with my nic card which was not detected during install which is a SMC-1211TX using kernel module rtl8139, and I have never been able to the Cable setup because it will not work with dhcp never have been able to make dhcp work with my cable modem, through @home. One last thing I noticed is that Linuxconf does not work in DrakConf and when LinuxConf is run from a command line says... Incompatible module /usr/lib/linuxconf/modules/pppoe.so.1.18.0 get a new or recompile it against a recent linuxconf-devel package Expext API revision 16, got 15 well thats it just figured I would tell whoever listens out there Michael M "NAZ"aroff _ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
