RE: PowerBook G3 (FireWire, 2000) Gnome, Sound, and Samba. 8.2 Beta2

2002-04-09 Thread Art Napor




 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.

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,

The gnome-control-center on your site seems to be older than the version included with 
8.2b2 (1.4.0
vs. 1.5.11). Will it work just as well?
