RE: PowerBook G3 (FireWire, 2000) Gnome, Sound, and Samba. 8.2 Beta2
A few Things I've noticed since I've installed mandrake on my powerbook. Gnome: Application bonibo-moniker-archiver Segfaults when gnome is starting just before nautilus begins. (I'm left with the red root backround similar to KDE's.) (if I try and access it through the gnome control panel same thing happens.) Known, see the updated control panel and xscreensaver on my web-space. http://people.mandrakesoft.com/~sbenedict update xscreensaver (rpm -Uvh) possibly uninstall gnome-pilot, gnome-control-center, gnome-control-center-plus (rpm -e) clean out /usr/share/control-center (first rpm -qif /usr/share/control-center, to make sure it's not owned by anything, then rm -fr /usr/share/control-center) install the new gnome-control-center (rpm -i) Sound: While a sound card was detected during the installation, at bootup it loads the sound module (dmasound_pmac), and there is a slight tick I can hear through the speakers at the point when it loads. When gnome loads Application /usr/bin/sound-properties-control Segfaults, and Crashes. Same problem as above. (if I start in KDE I get the error SNDCTL_DSP_SETMFT Failed -Invalid Argument, the sound server will continue to use the null output device.) Switch artsd to 8 bit sound. Samba: At Startup Both SMB, and NMB services fail. Missing libattr1. Should be on the mirrors. Stew Benedict -- MandrakeSoft PPC FAQ: http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/demos/PPC/FAQ/ When I try changing artsd to 8 bit sound artsd -bits 8 nothing seems to happen, am I doing something wrong? Everything else works great, airport, x, etc it's almost perfect. Thanks again, ~ Art Napor

Will it work just as well?
