Re: [Cooker] How to upgrade from 9.1 to cooker?
Ainsi parlait Nicholas Brown : Is this the correct way to upgrade from using 9.1 to using cooker? (are other steps needed etc?)

You won't know for sure until you try it. You may have to resolve some dependencies by hand. AFAIC, had no such troubles :-) BTW, given a try yesterday to various kernel available (enterprise, mm, tmb 2.6) and the box boots on each :-) Always used enterprise to enjoy my Gb ram but, on a first try, couldn't have audigy driver running :( So, I'm actually using 2.4.22-10mm with wich my Audigy Platinum works out of the box with audigy driver (nice dvd experience with xine, xmms works with libao output - not with alsa, alsaplayer reads CDs w/o troubles, but alsamixer crashes complaining with snd_ctl_open failed for default: no such file or directory and have no sound with grip) . The only thing is that, with mm, I'm stuck to 896 Mb Ram ! Not that I need the rest every days, but from my point of view, a _MultiMedia_ dedicated kernel (the one you're supposed to run to make video, audio, 3D... stuff isn't it ?) should definitely support one or two gigz Ram !? Or maybe the smp multimedia kernel does and I can run it on my single cpu box ? Finally, IIUC, lufs support is included in mm kernel... but I can't find the liblufs(-devel) and lufs-tools any more nor documentation on how to use the module. Could so enlighten me a little please ? Still have lufs-0.9.5-1mdk.src.rpm, liblufs(-devel)-0.9.5-1mdk.i586.rpm and lufs-tools-0.9.5-1mdk.i586.rpm here, can I drop them ? Any help would be nice 'cause I'd realy like to play with sshfs (don't even tell me about nfs ! this *thing* just sux !) before having to acces my job server remotely... This is (once again) going to be a great release, softs are getting more and more mature, the distro makes life with a penguin always easier (much than with a dog ! LOL - see the hurricane @ http://bookmax.free.fr) Many thanks to yall Mandrakerz (devz, contribz, etc...), keep on running ! :-))) BESTS Tarax -- Future Is Free, Fight Against Bill Friends Linux User # 274160 Linux Boxes #157052, 157053, 157054 MandrakeClub Member

So yes, it will support 1GB and you can still run it on up box (default enterprise is smp as well). It might be logical if I had changed the name, but it is already so long... ofcourse, alsamixer crashes if you do not use an alsa driver. if it's an audigy1 perhaps it works with snd-emu10k1? d.
