Re: [Cooker] beta3 bugs (fail to detect nic during install)

2000-09-25 Thread michael nazaroff

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

Can you please select "Help--Report Bug" from kde media player and send a 
bug report in please? This way it gets fast to the right people.

The dragging and dropping may be solved in the latest kde version (actually 
my next set of rpm's).

first during install it mentioned that there was no network card detected(or

during install it mentioned that it could not start networking because there 
was no ethernet card working but when I went back and tried to setup local

sure if it is though trying to compile kdevelop 1.2 and it cannot find 
qvaluelist.h in /usr/include is this supposed to be there or not?

I can confirm this same problem.  When I installed beta 3 on each of my 2

"No ethernet network adapter is currently configured on your system.   Please
run the hardware configuration tool."

still had to do "ifup eth0" to kick dhcp after linuxconf finished the setup and

Well, a post in html doesn't help matters.  Many people on this list cannot
read it on their mail clients.  Some people have filters to throw it away.  For
example, I found your mail in my trash bin, purely by accident.

XFree86 3.3.6 should work with your intel 810.  Please realize that the 810 is
not very good hardware and has presented problems for all linux distros. 
XFree86 version 4 is still an experimentally supported thing in this version,
and bug reports for 3.3.6 will receive attention while 4.0 will probably
receive attention in future distributions.  I strongly recommend use of 3.3.6
until 4.0 matures a bit more.

You could try SuSE or Debian.  I doubt if you will find the results much
better.  The 810 is a problematic chipset, and you may know that intel has
recalled the 820 boards altogether and that RESPONSIBLE resellers offer memory
specifically certified for the 810 because quite a lot of the SDRAM DIMM memory
out there will not work with the 810.  I built a few 810 Chipset computers,
installed windows 98 for my customers, and gave them a warranty that covered
ONLY windows use, for a bargain price--my cost, just to get rid of them. I
also warned my customers about the deficiencies and shortcomings of the
technology employed in those computers. I won't be building any more of them.

What you are using is a Beta version  Which means that your bug report was
seen and will be given attention before the final release.  Sending an
acknowledgement for bugs is not always done  It would be wasteful of
bandwidth. 

Actually your English is understandable and you have no need to apologize for
it.  Your expectations of the distribution seem to be quite a bit more advanced
along the "bleeding edge" than the distribution is.

So, try 3.3.6 for XFree86 and most of your problems should disappear.  The
partitioning errors I have seen myself and come from duplicate mount names more
frequently than anything else, though a more graceful way of handling that
error is desirable.  It is important to assure that each partition has its
own mount point (except for swap partitions).
