Configuring your screen resolution or video card driver has nothing to do with the login screen. Or why not putting kcontrol into the hardware section ? In a way, it's something about graphic interface, so related Xfree, so related to video driver so we can conclude this is about hardwarethat does not seems intuitive to me.

Re: [Cooker] DrakConf -- Software Management -- Software Source broken ?
On Sunday 02 February 2003 09:06 pm, OS scribbled in crayon on a yellow legal pad: I am probably doing this all wrong ! In order to add a urpmi repository, it must provide a hdlist. That is done with tools related to genhdlist. The process is not well documented as far as I know. I cd to the directory containing the files and # genhdlist `pwd` And then add it to the media list. You _should_ be able to do it with urpmi.addmedia using the -f option, like: # urpmi.addmedia -f repository name file://path to your local files but I always get an error like: Can't use string (MyRPM) as a HASH ref while strict refs in use at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/urpm.pm line 914.

Re: [Cooker] drakconf-themes missing file, and some suggestion for rpmdrake
So it is actally a PLF RPM, not really maintained, contact the maintainer and author, http://damz.net (IIRC). There was no mention of the authors in the summarry. But, if you click on get new themes, you have the website. Sorry, I should have look earlier. I think that is is important to have theme for mcc, since people would not have to learn 2 types of icons. Of course, I may confuse them, if the same configuration icons is at 2 place. But, far less than having two icon foir the same concept. Btw, another problem is I can't see from where urpmi is downloading file. I didn't found the option to show the media used for urpmi and co.

Re: [Cooker] DrakConf cups autoinstall feature
Well then I clearly disagree. I just happened to be clicking around. There is no printer attached to this machine and I don't feel the need for it to print. I was just investigating the tool. If I can't investigate it because part of the tool is not installed, I'd rather be told that than have it just presume that it knows what's best for me. Tres Microsoft, I say. What if I was just bad with the mouse and meant to hit the item above or below printing and just lucked out and accidentally clicked it instead? Shouldn't I at least get a dialog asking me if I really want something new installed on my machine? I mean, if the answer is indeed yes, I will only ever be asked the question once, so it's not like it's a really big inconvenience to confirm that choice. And what if I'm on a dialup connection. The cups drivers are several megabytes in size. Is it right for it to just take off and start downloading files without a hello and how are you? I'd rather it ask me and make sure I'm ready to do that before it goes tying up my phone line for several hours. No, I stand by my statement.

Re: [Cooker] DrakConf -Hardware -Display
The default monitor selection has the correct settings but I wanted to choose my monitor, correct name. Selected the monitor and tried to test it. Well the resolution was wrong so I choose NO. From there I got a blank screen and could not do anything. Not switch to a console window. I could write a whole essay about weird XFdrake moments. I don't know where to start. The one about clicking cancel to be able to choose monitor, or the one where selecting video card cancels your previous monitor selection, or when you're done doing an expert configuration and accidently click OK after returning to the main screen makes the configuration start all over, or the black testing screen. I could go on. Is Mandrake aware of the oddities in XFdrake? Is a major overhaul planned? It's a crucial application to make Linux-Mandrake user friendly, but in its current state it doesn't add to the friendlyness, unfortunately. I know little about how XFdrake looks under the hood, but perhaps a complete rewrite is the solution? Maybe even as module compatible with KDE's Control Center. *wishing* :) Matt

It is called DrakConf on desktop but Mandrake Control Center in menu. Confusing. will be fixed 2. Boot Config does not reflect reality w.r.t. Aurora. I have Traditional style monitor but Boot Config shows me "NewStyle Categorizing Monitor" checked with picture of "NewStyle Monitor". May be, this is because I made links manually - but that's due to the broken installation of Aurora :-) 3. HardDrake still does not recognize my 3COM 3CP2977 hardware PCI modem!!! 4. Autodetection in networ configuration wizard does not work, probably due to the 3. 5. Still no CHAP authentication. But it looks co-o-ol! :-) thanx. I'll try to fix everything -- dam's

Re: [Cooker] DrakConf glitches
Vincent Meyer [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Hello, Launching DrakConf from a terminal comes up with two errors: Use of unitialized value in subroutine entry at /usr/X11R6/bin/DrakConf.real line 200, VERS line 1 the other is: Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) at /usr/X11R6/bin/DrakConf.real line 490, VERS line 1. no idea what this means, but hope it helps. Launching it from the regular menu in KDE it crashes, launched from the terminal window it seems to run OK, except for the errors it's complaining about. What version do you have ?

Re: [Cooker] DrakConf, password dialog - different look'n'feel
[EMAIL PROTECTED] (Andrej Borsenkow) writes: Some plugins use kde_su (I think) while others obviously use there own widgets to request root passord. These are drakfloppy harddrake userdrake drakfont all others use KDE dialog. KDE dialog differs much from what is used by DrakConf itself and all other pligins so I guess it is more appropriate. I personally like KDE style (I always disliked Gtk look'n'feel) but converting all plugins to KDE wodgets is porbably out of question (is there perl-qt or even perl-kde?) It's kdesu. Run DrakConf with sudo, the next release will ask you for the root passwd only one time at the beginning. -- dam's

Nearly right. Actually perl-base was 5.700-1mdk, while perl was 5.600-20mdk. 5.700-1mdk is only in contrib - I don't remember installing it but I suppose I must have - prior to upgrading cooker - perhaps I installed something from contrib that depended upon it?? So I removed 5.700-1mdk and installed 5.600-20mdk.
