[Cooker] 9.1 kernel 2.4.21-0.13mdk and USB Flash Drives

Ok so this is an older kernel...

When I boot my system and plug in my usb drive, it works.

When I remove it and reinsert it I get the following in /var/log/messages:

Nov 12 16:28:37 mwatts kernel: hub.c: new USB device 00:1f.2-1.4, assigned 
address 9
Nov 12 16:28:41 mwatts /etc/hotplug/usb.agent: Setup usb-storage for USB 
product ed1/6680/100
Nov 12 16:28:41 mwatts /etc/hotplug/usb.agent: Module setup usb-storage for

Nov 12 16:28:41 mwatts /etc/hotplug/usb/usb-storage: scsimon allready loaded

Nothing else happens now - I dont get the usual scsi device detection, and I 
certainly don't get a /mnt/removable appear.

I tried upgrading to the latest 9.1 errata kernel, but this makes the problem 
even worse - insmod hangs trying to load usb-storage module as part of the 
hotplug scripts.

Aside from upgrading to 9.2, which it not a suitable option in current 
circumstances, is there a fix for this? Everything worked just fine in 9.0...

Cheers,

Mark.

 Let's go for a summary of the problems:
 
 * The urpmi urpmi step worked well. After that I had to stop the urpmi
 --auto-select because it was scrolling a bazillion of error messages regarding
 /var/lib/rpm/PubKeys. Had to remove the file and manually rpm --import the
 keys

Problably a problem of specific extension of rpm 4.2 versus 4.0.4 used in 9.1, a
missing rpm --rebuilddb could be the cause ? Anyway, a urpmi.update -a could be
much nicer after, except if urpmi database is already up-to-date ?

 * There was some conflict with files with some updated packages. Removed the
 offending packages and urpmi --auto-select worked well.

A commend line --skip pkg1,pkg2,...,pkgN can be used in such case, it is
depending on the humor of the moment.

 * It couldn't update libavifile0.7 libaviplayavcodec (and dependent packages)
 due to dependencies. I think this is a problem caused by urpmi batching, since
 when I manually issued an urpmi libavifile0.7 libaviplayavcodec it could
 upgrade both flawlessly. Maybe this problem will be more noticeable on the other
 machine since it has many more packages installed.

If you could have saved bug report of urpmi for that... in order to see what is
the cause.

...
 gettext-0.11.5-2mdk, kdeutils-3.1-9mdk, screem-0.6.0-1mdk
 
 in 9.2:
 
 gettext-0.11.5-7mdk, kdeutils-3.1.3-20mdk, screem-0.6.2-4mdk
 
 Add to the list automake, but that's because of the naming (I had automake1.6
 while 9.2 has automake1.7).

Again, it is domage you didn't issue an --bug of urpmi, it is always nice when
something seems to be bad.

 * The last issue is that by rebooting (I didn't upgrade the kernel) I had a dead
 machine: it couldn't find the initrd so it couldn't mount the root directory
 (since it's xfs). Hopefully one of the older kernels I had could boot, ran lilo
 from it and the machine went back to life. I don't understand what happened
 here, really. The other machine has a much more convoluted lilo setup, so I fear
 it won't be as easy to recover.

lilo was problably updated, and lilo upgrade should call lilo by itself.

 Well, I'm impressed by how well the procedure worked. Sure, there were some
 hurdles and the modification in libraries versions wasn't earth shattering (I
 wonder if everything would work as well with a major glibc update) but still
 it's much better that what was available before. Oh, btw, I was using the
 machine (logged in in X) during the whole process. That's incredible. Kudos to
 mandrake developers and contributors.

Yes, but there was still some problems.

Thanks,
François.

Should I use it for every invocation or just for the final urpmi

[Cooker] 9.1 - 9.2 issues with urpmi

2003-11-01 Thread Luca Olivetti
[since it seems that sympa doesn't like CCs, I'll send two separate 
copies of this message to cooker and expert]

I had some minor and some not so minor issues upgrading from 9.1 to 9.2 
on a test machine (my company laptop) using the method outlined by Buchan at
http://www.pclinuxonline.com/modules.php?name=Newsfile=articlesid=7018

If someone feels I should add this information to some wiki page please 
tell me where (no, I won't find the location by myself, sorry, I find 
wikis difficult to use and never find the information I'm looking for).

Since most of the issues are with urpmi I hope this report is useful to 
correct them (this is why I'm posting this to cooker). Next week I'll 
try the update on my main machine (and hopefully put the test machine on 
cooker), so if you find this report missing or incomplete plese tell me 
what should I do to give more useful details.

I added a couple of steps of my own to Buchan's method: I took a list of 
all the packages before the update (rpm -qa | sort |  rpms.mdk91) and 
after (rpm -qa | sort |  rpms.mdk92). Using these lists I could see 
which packages weren't updated by urpmi --auto-select (comm -1 -2 
rpms.mdk91 rpms.mdk92). More on this later.

Also, instead of using ftp/http urpmi sources, I used local sources (a 
local 9.2 tree dowloaded with rsync, both main and contribs) plus an ftp 
source for plf. No updates source at the moment (I'll save that for 
later, I'll see if the updates are included in the 9.2 tree for the new 
iso and I'll rsync the tree. Either that or download the updates so I 
can use them for both machines. No lg cdroms here ;-).

I had an operator error: the hdlist for plf was old, so urpmi couldn't 
find some packages. Obviously this isn't an urpmi problem but a pebkac 
one ;-)  (but the error message, or the translation, was misleading 
since it told me that all packages could be downloaded).

Let's go for a summary of the problems:

* The urpmi urpmi step worked well. After that I had to stop the 
urpmi --auto-select because it was scrolling a bazillion of error 
messages regarding /var/lib/rpm/PubKeys. Had to remove the file and 
manually rpm --import the keys

* There was some conflict with files with some updated packages. Removed 
the offending packages and urpmi --auto-select worked well.

packages) due to dependencies. I think this is a problem caused by urpmi 
batching, since when I manually issued an urpmi libavifile0.7 
libaviplayavcodec it could upgrade both flawlessly. Maybe this problem 
will be more noticeable on the other machine since it has many more 
packages installed.

* I had to urpmi all kde packages that weren't updated due to the 
package split. Not an urpmi problem and not a big deal since I really 
like the split (so I don't have to install things I don't need) but I'm 
reporting it since the info could be useful to somebody that didn't 
follow the issue on the various mailing lists. For the curious what I 
did was:

  urpmi kdebase-konsole
  urpmi kdebase-kate
  urpmi kdepim-knotes
  urpmi kdepim-korganizer
  urpmi kdenetwork-knewsticker
* Had a problem with cyrus-imapd databases. Don't know if it's because I 
screwed up with this machine (after all it's a test machine) or because 
during an upgrade a db_upgrade should be done. Since the databases were 
for duplicate delivery and tls sessions (thank God I used skiplist for 
the useful ones) I just removed them. I'll see what happens with the 
other machine where my real mail is (I'll keep my fingers crossed) (note 
that this problem has nothing to do with urpmi).

* Then I compared packages before and after the upgrade

comm -1 -2 rpms-mdk91 rpms-mdk92  not_upgraded

(to get a list of packages that weren't upgraded)

( for i in `not_upgraded` ; do urpmq --sources $i ; done ) 21 | 
grep 'cap paquet'  orphaned

(to exclude packages that remained the same in 9.1 and 9.2, note 
that 'cap paquet' is the localized string for 'no package' )

looking at the packages in orphaned I found mostly obsolete libs that 
I subsequently removed (in fact this step was useful to perform a kind 
of spring cleaning) but there were some packages that urpmi 
--auto-select failed to upgrade:

gettext
kdeutils
screem
urpmi gettext, urpmi kdeutils, urpmi screem solved that but I'm puzzled 
that urpmi --auto-select didn't find the newer versions by itself.
The versions in 9.1 were:

   gettext-0.11.5-2mdk, kdeutils-3.1-9mdk, screem-0.6.0-1mdk

in 9.2:

   gettext-0.11.5-7mdk, kdeutils-3.1.3-20mdk, screem-0.6.2-4mdk

Add to the list automake, but that's because of the naming (I had

This is still an issue, at least at carroll.  I don't know if it was 
just overlooked the first time I reported (3/26) or is considered not 
important enough, so I will report one more time in case the former. 
For a fresh rsync of carroll contrib/, attempts to install gdal, at 
least, will fail as the hdlist is wrong, shown below.  It can be solved 
locally with genhdlist and, perhaps, by some similar effort, on the 
public mirror(s).

  During the install, I did the adsl setup at the 'summary' stage. 
I selected dynamic ip. When the zeroconf screen came up I entered 
nothing and just clicked the 'next' button.  I've run the installer

I know =static seems ass backwards, but even with 9.0 and every time I

Hi I just installed 9.1 on a laptop and I have to say its
the best mandrake distro ever.  congratulations and thank you to everyone
at mandrake for working hard on this release... its great.

i have some problems:

1. acpi doesn't want to read the battery status... even in 9.0 with apm
   it could not read battery status so it always says its at 0% or -1%
   this is a dell inspiron 8100 laptop... does anyone have a solution for
   this?

2. i tried to configure a scanner in DrakConf ... scanjet 4470C but it
says that this scanner is not supported by current version of mandrake...
does that mean there is no driver yet?... should i just wait until one is
out?

3. i have a D-Link AirPlus wireless pcmcia card ... it recognized it...
but there is no module availabe for it.. .smae thing?... no driver yet?

4. i have a buslink usb2.0 pcmcia card.. and a HD attached to it... it
came up recognized /dev/sda ... but when i tried mounting it..
it gave me something like: cannot mount... bad superblock...or wrong fs
type...or too many mounted filesystems.  I'm not sure how ti fix this
because i've been trying since 9.0 and it gives me that same error.

5. XFree86 now has randr with 4.3... so how do i change the resolution on
the fly with mandrake?  i tried using randr and it changed the resolution
but the screen didn't properly resize.

any help would be great thanx.

congrats again mandrake

[Cooker] 9.1 fresh install

2003-03-28 Thread Tom Brinkman
   Tho I've been current cooker all along (and consequently already  
at 9.1 final), I did a fresh install today. Fortunately I saved 
copies of pertinent adsl/eth0 related configs and a backup of my 
/home/tom directory, among other stuff.

   All'n all I was pleasantly surprised with the fresh install 
(regular, or what use to be 'recommended'). Great job, better than 
ever. Everything worked, just a coupl'a niggles and a potential real 
pisser off'r.

o   I again had to 'urpme alsa-utils' to prevent aplay from suckin on 
the cpu (100%), and enable sound. Same thing happened after the 
recent 'upgrade' with 9.1 final CD's. Onboard AC97,  snd-via82xx 
: VIA Technologies|VT82C686 [Apollo Super AC97/Audio]. And I had to 
run 'aumix' to move the sliders off -0-.  Then Kmix was functional, 
sound was fully restored.

o   Tho eth0 worked, it spent _many_ seconds during boot being 
enabled, finally claiming an address after tryin it several times.  
This was soon fixed by moving in the saved copy  of 
/etc/sysconfig/network- scripts/ifcfg-eth0

The only difference between the '9.1 fresh install' file and the 
saved ifcfg-eth0 file was one line.  BOOTPROTO=static  from the saved 
file works, eth0 is just a split second pause during bootup. 
BOOTPROTO=dhcp, from the 'fresh' install caused the long wait and 
search. Connection is adsl, dynamic IP, auto DNS. (dsl line - ATU-R, 
'often referred to as a modem' - pci NIC 'D-Link TX538')

o   Now for the pisser.  I had previously done an upgrade with the d/l 
9.1 CD's, mainly to look at the installer. Everything was fine, no 
problems. I like the new simplicity, look'n feel, and ease.  Very 
fortunately it's my habit to regularly backup my user dir (/tom) to a 
storage partition, which I did just before I began todays fresh 
install.

During the install I was presented with the options to format 
partitions other than the preselected '/'. I also chose /boot, to 
clean out a bunch of obsolete kernels. I was careful to make sure 
that none of the (many) partitions including /home, were _not_ 
selected.

Still, on first boot, my 'old' /home/tom was wiped out, replaced 
by the beginning default one. Easily fixed by overwriting with the 
saved /tom dir. Could'a been a disaster tho.

 Yes, the system in UTF8 is more buggy than with default encoding.

Yeah. I am still waiting for ISOs of final to test some features, but I
think we need to start getting more publicity for some of the cool
features we know about.

Austin's Audio Workstation Howto has been pubished
(http://www.desktoplinux.com/articles/AT8018846552.html), and it would
be cool to try and keep up a steady stream of articles in various places
that inform users of the best ways to take advantage of all the cool
features in 9.1.

We have a samba-ldap article coming up soon, and I may try and improve
some documentation for client-side samba use (tweakhound's howto is
outdated and just plain wrong in some places, no-one should even
consider using swat!).

I hope Vince gets around to updating the ldap article at
Mandrakesecure.net, since I should also make sure he covers using ldap
slaves on laptops for disconnected auth ...

Oden, could you provide some details on getting the most out of

Notice that all of the files are dated yesterday.  Seems like when the
instructions for copying the ISO contents were sent out to the mirrors,
they were not sent with switches to preserve timestamps.  Other mirrors
are similar.  This makes rsync want to fetch all of the files even
though I have them already, just because the dates are different.

Yet, interestingly...

but sadly, that server does not seem to have rsync enabled any more.
Maybe they have just disabled it for the 9.1 frenzy.

Is there anything Mandrake can do to get the mirrors to correct the
timestamps so that they reflect the ISO images (and all of our Cooker
mirrors)?

We actually do use nss_ldap and pam_smb (and pam_ldap) so that even if

 Sorry, I'm no writer..., and writing this kind of stuff in english would be

 J-M is a good writer and I'm convinced it will be a nice article.

 The thing I think one _should_ mention in such an article is the unique
 cooperation between (end)users/contributers like you and me and the
 hardcore coders of MandrakeSoft. The mutual respect and all that.

[Cooker] 9.1/contrib synthesis.hdlist2.cz out-of-sync

2003-03-26 Thread Rolf Pedersen
I mirrored the contrib/RPMS last night from ftp://ftp.sunet.se and first 
noticed that the synthesis.hdlist contains newer versions than some of 
the files in the RPMS directory, seemingly those that changed around 
3/18, when trying to urpmi hddtemp:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] RPMS]# ls | grep hddtemp
hddtemp-0.3-0.beta4.1mdk.i586.rpm
[EMAIL PROTECTED] RPMS]# zcat synthesis.hdlist2.cz | grep hddtemp
[..]
@[EMAIL PROTECTED] 0.3-0.beta4.2mdk]
whereas, in the hdlist from ftp://sunsite.uio.no:

@[EMAIL PROTECTED] 0.3-0.beta4.1mdk]

Another example, the same at both ftp mirrors:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] RPMS]# ls | grep gdal
gdal-1.1.8-1mdk.i586.rpm
gdal-python-1.1.8-1mdk.i586.rpm
libgdal0-1.1.8-1mdk.i586.rpm
libgdal0-devel-1.1.8-1mdk.i586.rpm
[EMAIL PROTECTED] RPMS]# zcat synthesis.se.hdlist2.cz | grep gdal | grep 
@provides
@[EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]@libgdal0[== 1.1.8-2mdk]
@[EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] 1.1.8-2mdk]
@[EMAIL PROTECTED] 1.1.8-2mdk]
@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@gdal-python[== 1.1.8-2mdk]

It's difficult to check on any of the mirrors, right now but, in case 
there is a glitch at the Mandrake mirror...

Yes, the system in UTF8 is more buggy than with default encoding.

FYI you're using UTF8 either:

- if you select Use Unicode by default in the language
  selection step of the install

- if you selected to support several languages in the language
  selection step of the install, and these languages use
  different encodings

- you selected a language in GDM (AFAIK, it's a bug in GDM) - if
  you use GDM, always select default language (or whatever it's
  called), and if you want to use another language, run
  localedrake (as a user, it will change the language for that
  user; as root, it will change the language for everyone)

 up but fixed again when logging out/in/switching teminals. I don't know how 
 this could be or how to fix it or how to debug it further.

Creox is a real-time sound processor. You can plug your electric guitar
or any other musical instrument directly to the PC's sound card and start
experimenting with various sound effects. Creox has a nice user-friendly
GUI, a preset support, a low-latency DSP engine and each effect parameter
can be altered on the fly. 

As the creox is a JACK application, the output sound can be routed to the
other JACK aware applications as well as the audio input can be taken as
the output from the other JACK client.

 Check your Cooker mirror whether it already caught up kernel
 2.4.21-0.13mdk. This is the fixed one. The Cooker on our compilation
 cluster is exactly 9.1 now, including this kernel. So update as soon as
 you r mirror gets the new kernel.

ok, i guess I need to get the habits of having hole disclosed after the fix, 
but, this is great.

Good work for the 9.1

 How about using mc to extract the kernel from the correct kernel rpm

You will have to force the install. 

And what about other elements of the system bearing date March 18, 2003 
that might also not have changed numbers.

My guess is that the only safe way would be to re-install the frpm the 
original disks and then set up your mirror again and then update.

Or wait for the final set of iso images to arrive then do a new install.

It appears to be a new kernel but rebuilt with the same number because the 
byte count is different from the one I manually downloaded last week and the 
new on on the cooker mirrors.  hmmm.

And the Only rational and safe manner in which to install the 'new' -13
kernel is to boot to an old kernel
rpm -e kernel-source kernel-doc kernel-2.4.21.0.13mdk-1-1mdk
and then install the 'new' -13 kernel pkgs.

How is the DrakX going to handle this if the user has the 'old' -13
kernel and the user is running the 9.1 installation as an upgrade?

 And the Only rational and safe manner in which to install the 'new'
 -13 kernel is to boot to an old kernel
 rpm -e kernel-source kernel-doc kernel-2.4.21.0.13mdk-1-1mdk
 and then install the 'new' -13 kernel pkgs.

 How is the DrakX going to handle this if the user has the 'old' -13
 kernel and the user is running the 9.1 installation as an upgrade?

Reinstall the iso disks then upgrade?

I would do rpm -ivh --force, but it probably won't make any substantial 
difference. You could also probably rename the existing kernel binary and do 
a rpm -F and rpm would replace the missing kernel.

Great!

I tryed to update cooker yesterday but I had lots of problem and errors in the 
cds created, probably due to the last update packages. I can't wait to see 
the isos on the mirrors.

Anyway, there has been a great experience help testing this distribution; for 
the first time I used cooker in the last moment (lather than RC2). So I know 
9.1 is a great distribution. 

I hope Mandrake will survive to this financial problems and we will have the 
oportunity to following testing future releases.

Congratulations and thanks for the experience!

[Cooker] 9.1 comming?

2003-03-14 Thread Francisco Alcaraz Ariza
I have removed the last bug I had for 9.1  (^_^)

I think 9.1 is ready to come.

I will be a great distributions, the Mandrake team has 
worked very well, draktools look pretty well and now seems 
that all are runing (even my digital camera has been 
instaled throughout a line in the fstab about usb-storage 
media).

I hope Mandrake could survive to its finnancial problems, 
there has been a great activity the last month (new 
releases, a book, ..

Anyway, I have the cooker from last mondey with some updates 
packages, so it is practically the real 9.1, but I am still 
nervous waiting for it.

(^_^) Happy for Mandrake 9.1, :-( sad because it seems that 
sooner millions of irakies will probably be fighted by the 
war.

Bad times for the freedom are coming, aren't they?

AFAIK, some irritating KDE bugs are still open:

- - double-click in detailed mode in Konqueror is still broken (ie
single-click)
- - kio_smb is broken (mostly doesn't browse into a share at all, when it
does, not very well).

I also don't know if the install team managed to get the hostname set
when the installer brings the network up at the end of installation, so
winbind is actually useful out-the-box.

When I installed it I could select skip lilo conf with rc2 and then start

related to the language you used to install.

I'm not using cooker but from other messages and bugzilla I see a 
potential problem here: cyrus-sasl.
cyrus sasl v2 and all its plugins are included (and that's good since 
sasl v1 has been deprecated) but then not all packages that use sasl 
have been updated to use sasl v2, so sasl v1 libraries are also provided 
for these packages (libsasl7-1.5.27-6mdk.i586) but no plugin. Also, the 
main cyrus-sasl v2 package obviously doesn't provide the programs to 
manipulate the sasldb of sasl v1 (they're preserved from cyrus-sasl v1 
in case of an upgrade, but they won't be there for a new install).

Cool.

But would it be possible to update rrdtool? I sent this to the maintainers 
list but got no feedback:


rrdtool-1.0.4x won't build on Cooker because of some strangeness in the latest 
libpng package, it builds fine on ML9.0 though. I updated the rrdtool package 
from v1.0.40 to v1.0.41 because there were some apache2 related fixes in the 
cgi, maybe jmdault or lenny can make this compile on cooker, and also squeeze 
it into the main cooker repository?

Here's my changelog:

Would you get rid of libopenssl0-0.9.6h-2mdk ?
Is there any way in you build cluster to check for things like that ?
For example, latest balsa-2.0.8 was built again against old ssl, even
