Software Manager Problem
Hello, on a fresh 8.2 bluebird install again, Software Manager doesn't work properly either. Selecting packages, checking dependencies all goes by nicely. It also prompts for the CDROM correctly. But then it says, for example: Fetching glibc-devel-. but the progress bar doesn't show any progress, and after a while it says: Unfortunately, some packages were not installed due to some errors. None of my filesystems are more than 50% full. Any ideas? Best wishes, Tobias ------- Tobias Giesen, Composer Developer of TGTools www.tobiasgiesen.de www.tgtools.com ---
8.2 PPC installation bug
Hello, I think I observed this on i586 once too: My partitions are /, /usr, and /usr/share. These are on different hard disks. The Mandrake installer doesn't show the correct total free space (it only shows the space of hard disk 1). Thus, I cannot install all the packages I want. There should be a way to override Mandrake's free-space check. Best wishes, Tobias ------- Tobias Giesen, Composer Developer of TGTools www.tobiasgiesen.de www.tgtools.com ---
KPackage problem
Hello, 8.2 on a Yosemite, fresh install: Trying to use the Package Manager KPackage, I have the following problem: it doesn't show a list of available packages. It only shows Installed, Updated (none), Empty (none), and All=Installed. Clicking on Reload doesn't make a difference. How do I select new packages? Thanks.

RE: Keyboard problem etc.
Hello, thanks very much, I received your replies today! Best wishes, Tobias
Keyboard problem
Hello, I installed 8.2 twice and this problem, too, was identical on both installations: After booting right into the X login, the keyboard's keys are all confused, for example: pressing 2 produces an f pressing q produces a y pressing TAB produces an r So typing in my password is _really_ difficult, but I figured it out. Within the desktop environment, I have to manually specify my desired keyboard layout each time. Any ideas?
