Unfortunately, according to my not yet emptied trash folder, one Jason 
Greenwood is apparently the most prolific HTML poster on the list since the 
my last update.  Some of his seem to be HTML, some not.

I too filter HTML to the trash.  It's a great way to kill most of the spam.  I 
do scan the subject lines b4 closing KMail, tho, and auto-deleting them, just 
to be sure I'm not going to be deleting anything important.

Mine work fine on a 13000 messages mbox. For Cooker and with Kmail

But I had some problem when sorting message, since I am always low on disk

Ok you got me curious so I counted up most my emails it could be off by maybe 
as much as 200 or 300 but  I doubt it is that far off.

Anyway I have somewere around 233,000 emails and yes you read that correctly. 
For me they are obviously in kmail. I think Jean Michael can beat this 
however.

Re: [Cooker] Wow - picture too!

2002-01-20 Thread Robert Fox

Stumbled across it actually - if memory serves me correctly, a simple
Alt-F3 (or F4) does the trick - or was that Ctrl-F4?

I was messing around with the Ctrl-Alt-F1 to F5 keys during install and
found it somehow.

It may be nice if someone out there could tell us the exact key combo
. . . Maybe after I try my next install (today maybe) I can give you a
more direct answer.

There may be other hidden goodies in the install routine . . and it's
possible that Mandrake likes to keep them undocumented because they
don't want this mail-list to be flooded with screenshot attachments . .
.

Just a hunch.

Good luck!

the best way for reporting errors is to send the /root/report.bug (when you
managed to finish the install), or the /tmp/ddebug.log during the install (the
bug command can help (type it on console 2))

as for your Net::FTP: Timeout error, it's a known bug that is fixed in next
DrakX upload (#1.625)

I second that. This mostly applies to fixed-width fonts ... just try to
access FTP over a HTTP proxy and resulted text is hardly readable on

 Wow! The new LILO is beautiful. Congrats!

 Now when I got your attention. I made a fresh install of today's cooker and
 there are a couple of problems in KDE.

 o The fonts. Some of the fonts are simply unreadable. Are they bitmap
 fonts? I made a screenshot of Konqueror and KWrite. See below.

 o Graphics glitches. I have the i810 chipset and XFree86 4.0.2 was
 installed. Take a look at the screenshot again, see the vertical lines in
 borders and scrollbars?

This appears in i810 chipsets driven in accelerated graphics mode under KDE.  
Perhaps it is a feature of the images to let you know you have true 
acceleration.  Option "noaccel" eliminates it and the muddy appearance of 
Konsole windows when you move other window borders across their screens.

I repeat, this is a feature that appears only when THREE conditions coincide.

i810 chipset

KDE

full acceleration under X

remove any one and you do not see the feature.

Civileme

BTW this feature is also present in rudimentary form (muddy Konsole) in KDE 
2.0 and 2.0.1.  It works better in the betas and seems to have reached its 
peak performance in KDE 2.1.  It also works well under both 8.0 and cooker 
installs and 7.2 installs.
