  I have not seen this before.  Is it being done by the mailing list

 Sounds like the mailing list is either being piped through demime.  It's
 a sweet program that does exactly what you perceived from the above

It sounds perfect for mailing lists.  Can we have some, pretty please? g

 Ken, very often, problems of that kind were due to aRts server and ALSA
 drivers. Strangely, I have it working with my SBLive Player, and some other
 people have trouble with it. You may want to kill it, or to remove it at
 startup (with KDE control). Try killing it to see if you have sound.
 BTW, 9.1 RC2 is now very outdated (probably 99% of packages have been
 already updated. If you want to try, I recommend you to install it and then
 to update to the latest cooker, or to download the arborescence (won(t take
 much more time than updating the whole distro).

I don't know how relevant this is, but in case it helps -

My Audigy card worked with 9.0 out-of-the-box.  The front panel didn't.

Following your post, I ran lsmod and found that emu-10k-1 wasn't loaded.  A 
mod called audigy was, though.  I then ran modprobe emu10*, and it loaded 
emu10k1-gp.

I am listening to a cd as I work, and have noticed no difference since I 
loaded that module.  I have always listened using xmms.

[expert] cups changes SERVERNAME

2003-03-17 Thread W. Kasberg
When (re)starting cups it changes the servername witk the message:
--
WARNING: Inserted ServerName 172.16.150.1 in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf
 (to make broadcasting of printer queue info working correctly)
---
the 172.16.150.1 ist the NAT for my VMware3.2. I think the servername should 
be 10.0.0.10.
The problem is:
If I am connected to Internet via DSL I cannot print (kprinter does not 
find/show any printer).
After shutting down DSL I can print normally.
My /etc/hosts shows:
10.0.0.10   localhost.localdomain localhost
127.0.0.1   localhost.localdomain localhost

What could be the reason?

Any hint ist appreciated.

 I got my fuji finepix connected to the machine today, and I have a few 
 lingering questions:
 
 1. I modprobed a series of drivers to get it all running: usbserial, 
 usb-ohci, and the like, set /etc/sysconf/usb to look to get my mouse, 
 visor and mass storage devices. I may have forgotten one from when I 
 did it, forgive me for my errors. Its up and working now, and I am 
 wondering about the modprobes I did. 
 
 Will I have to insert them in modules.conf to have them re inserted on 
 the next boot?

edit /etc/sysconfig/usb

 
 2. I figured out that hotplug is putting the camera on /dev/sda1, and 
 I am wanting to supermount that to ~/camera, so I inserted this line 
 in /etc/fstab: 
 none /home/robbo/camera supermount 
 dev=/dev/sda1,fs=auto,--,iocharset=iso8859-1,sync,codepage=850,
 umask=0 0 0
 
 It basically clones what is done for the floppy and CDROM, but I 
 really don't know anymore, other than it not working. What else do I 
 need to do to get it running?
 

what's it mounting as in /mnt? /mnt/camera or /mnt/removable? Hotplug
goes through about twenty scripts (exaggeration, but it's a lot) to
decide what to do and where to do it. Search the archives for Oct 19-21,
conversation between me and bascule, subject includes /mnt/removable.

 3. I am also interested in seeing an icon for the camera appear in 
 Removable media how do I go about that in KDE?
 

i don't know.

Have you tried right-clicking inside the Removable Media directory to create a 
new 'hard disk'?  I would think this would work.  I have such an icon running 
'automount', not supermount, for my LS120 drive.  Set up owner, group and 
permissions as you want it.  My device entry is /dev/sda, so you just find 
the appropriate /dev entry for the camera.  It should work

RE: automatic upgrades via install + drakautoinst WAS: [expert] Mandrake's Golden Opportunity

2003-03-17 Thread Mark Stewart
Hi David,


  The drakautoinst method I'm imagining would avoid all the
 issues and (most
  of the) complications involved with using urpmi (or apt-get or similiar
  program) to upgrade an installation. In terms of package
 management the

 I've been trying that method more or less with success for many
 different dist upgrades. The idea is to pop in a new distro CD (I
 first tried it with Red Hat, despite warnings), cd to the new RPMS
 directory, and then do 'rpm -Uvh *'. Grabs everything off of the CD
 that you already have and upgrades it. That's the way it's intended to
 work, but it doesn't always work that way.


The difference, however, is that my scheme doesn't run an upgrade on your
current setup. It runs the *installer* and does a _fresh install_. It's goal
is to leave you with a completely new install with roughly the same
complement of software that you had installed before you started. There may
well be omissions due to a package changing its name in the newer release
but the tool would log that fact and allow you to handle it afterwards. Such
a tool could let you do a dry run before running the actual install that
would build the map of equivalent   packages and let you resolve the
conflicts or omissions ahead of time.

If you stick with the package groups that Mandrake defines (Development,
Databases, etc.) and never add software after you install then you're
already halfway there since the packages that comprise those groups tend not
to change radically from one release to another (not that I've noticed
anyway).

Certainly there are lots of details that I'm overlooking. Simple ideas are
rarely as simple in practice but I think it's worth Mandrake thinking about.

 Thanks. I guess src.rpm is not needed as it contains source for compiling.

No,... you only need the src.rpm if you plan on rebuilding it.

Re: [expert] cups changes SERVERNAME

 When (re)starting cups it changes the servername witk the message:
 --
 WARNING: Inserted ServerName 172.16.150.1 in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf

 ---
 the 172.16.150.1 ist the NAT for my VMware3.2. I think the servername should 
 be 10.0.0.10.
 The problem is:
 If I am connected to Internet via DSL I cannot print (kprinter does not 
 find/show any printer).
 After shutting down DSL I can print normally.
 My /etc/hosts shows:
 10.0.0.10   localhost.localdomain localhost
 127.0.0.1   localhost.localdomain localhost
 
 What could be the reason?

Well, you definitely shouldn't have the 10.0.0.10 line as above - the
127.0.0.1 line is correct, and should be the only localhost line, AFAIK.
I would suggest something on the order of:

127.0.0.1   localhost.localdomain localhost
10.0.0.10   nickname.you.made.up nickname

And then set the box's hostname in /etc/sysconfig/networking thusly:

HOSTNAME=nickname.you.made.up
DOMAINNAME=you.made.up

If need be, you could also add a line:

DHCP_HOSTNAME=whatever.your.isp.calls.your.system

if your dhcp-client/dhcpcd requests (to your ISP) bomb without it ... if
you don't use dhcp for connecting to DSL, this bit doesn't apply to you.

Then execute at a root prompt:

service network restart
service cups restart

This will probably sort out cups; let us know if it does. You can also
set the hostname explicitly in the /etc/cups/cupsd.conf file, as the
error indicates, but you should fix /etc/hosts anyway, as cups is not
all that may choke (to one extent or another) on the current setup.

[expert] Anyone using vcr on mdk9?

2003-03-17 Thread J. Grant
Hi,

I was tempted by the lure of a digital video recorder.

I found this http://www.geocities.com/slothmud/VCR-HOWTO-3.html
It seems great, my tv card is working fine with xawtv, so i checked vcr 
out.  However, there are so many deps, I cant even get the avifile src 
on this site to build, (seems automake files are corrupted).  main 
avifile.sf.net does not build either, until i install some other libs 
etc. Fianlly failed with

make[3]: *** No rule to make target `pci_db2c.awk', needed by 
`pci_dev_ids.c'.  Stop.

http://www.stack.nl/~brama/vcr/index.html?page=download

I downloaded the avifile rpms from plf, but they need even more
Has anyone used vcr with mdk9 ? Are there any rpms floating around?
Seems even the extra rpms I installed are now out of date too:

win32-codecs-1.0-1plf
xine-win32-0.9.13-8plf
Has anyone got it to build from scratch ?

Cheers

JG
