[expert] trainging spamassassin from outlook2000
Hi guys.. on my work machine I have to use lookout2000... for learning purposes, I started storing spam in an outlook directory... on my linux box, I created "spam" and "ham" mailboxes now in outlook, I can open a spam message and go to: "Actions=>resend message" and have outlook email the spam with all the correct headers to the ham mailbox on the server so it can be learned by bayes in spamassasin... I have 3000 spam messages collected that I'd like to use for training bayes filters.. but sending by hand is wayyy to time consuming.. Anyone know of a way I can "mass resend" all the mail in my spam directory on outlook to the spam account on the server? regards Franki Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

[expert] medion tv card
I have a slight annoyance with my tv card. Now I don't just expect it to work with Mandrake, so I'm not complaining really ;) However during the install procedure for 9.0 all the 9.1 betas, and now 9.1 final my tv card is recognised as being a tv card. There is even an option to select it as being a Medion 4055 card. However when I boot into Mandrake, I have no tv card set up. Also trying to set one up tells me I have none. I am curious if the two procedures to find a tv card are different (if so why?) and also, if perhaps there is anything I can do to get the tv card working.

[expert] installation/upgrade problem
Hi, I just tried to upgrade my laptop to 9.1 and it crashes while loading the second stage. It is not a problem of the cd because: a) the same cd upgraded another pc without a problem and b) I got the same problem on a second identical portable. The model is Acer Travelmate 634LC. I tried several combination while booting: loading the alt1 kernel (2.2.19.something) I was able to go forward, but . I got xfs filesystems and the alt1 kernel does not support it. The one thing I have not (yet) tried is the updatemodules. alberto -- --- Alberto Gianoli - INFN - Sez.

[expert] 9.0-->9.1 - successful experience ... and also a minor question
1. I love Mandrake, and as such I was probably among the first to order (as I learned from this list - better directly from mandrakestore) the 9.1 package, BUT - anxious like everyone here - decided and obtained also the downloadable ISOs ... and ran from work back home to play with them ... 2. Here I am - at home - with one of my PCs that I really can take apart and play with any time - running a previous DVD install of Mandrake (the workstation DVD that came with my previously 9.0 server purchase). I chose to upgrade to 9.1 using the fresh CDs - put them in - run the upgrade option - BINGO! First hand experience with 9.1 upgrade: everything ran as smooth as it can get, and everything I can see right now came back up fine. Will check all details later, of course. So ... so far - thus - as an American I can only say (once again, this time about software;>): VIVE LA FRANCE!!! ;) 3. So - still having some time in hands (before the wife figures out the lights in my office, and walks in and "reboots" me, or "installs son in my lap, to clean his backplane") I decided to install some programs that I didn't have before (just for testing purposes), based on the newly/refreshed updated configuration sites for urpmi, from the good old trusted http://plf.zarb.org/~nanardon/index.php (this time for 9.1, of course, having previously removed the 9.0 entries). And here comes my question: whatever packages I choose to download, whether downloadable from an "unsupported" (plf or cooker) site, or installable from the new 9.1 CDs, I am being asked for the CDs of 9.1 (understandably), after which I am being asked for the 9.0 DVD. Is this normal? (of course I could remove the 9.0 DVD from the urpmi config, but I thought of leaving it there for now ... just a feeling about this being an upgrade ...) All in all - great product, once again! I like it even better now ... even if I am still running my favorite iceWM ... I will probably "bite" on the 3.1 KDE sometimes in the weekend, and expect even more pleasant surprises (at least from what I've been reading here).

Hi, I've just installed 9.1 here, which seems to have a different version of PostgreSQL than 9.0... It's 7.3 now...

Hi I've had some major problems with my Savage card after installation on an IBM thinkpad T23. It could display any graphics at all - however I was able to move my mouse and see some weird graphic. I solved it by getting the drivers directly from Tim Roberts homepage: http://www.probo.com/timr/savage40.html Take the newest driver. It contains tree precompiled files.

This is most likely being caused if you have any contrib rpms installed. They will not have been updated since none are included in the 9.1 ISOs. Add a 9.1 contrib source and run: urpmi --auto-select. I would also remove the 9.0 dvd from the source list and verify that all other existing sources are either for 9.1 or current cooker.

Re: [expert] trainging spamassassin from outlook2000
How about trying to export to another format first? I haven't tried this, but have found a few links for conversion from outlook to eudora and mbox format. I think eudora uses something like (the same?) mbox format. In my early dual-booting days (seems so long ago now... :) I even had my kmail mailboxes symlinked to my eudora mail boxes on my win9x partition... it sort of "worked" except for the DOS/*unix CR/LF differences. Once you have it in mbox format I presume it should be possible to use scripts of some kind to do things automatically. Too much of a kludge, perhaps?

[expert] 9.1 and 2.5.xx kernel questions
Are we going to be able to get a 2.5.xx kernel compiled with Mandrake 9.1? I gave up trying to compile a 2.5 kernel on 9.0, as apparently too many needed items were missing and/or unavailable (not to mention I'm not exactly an expert at this stuff). I figured with the newer glibc and gcc it may be possible, but what else is needed? I guess an upgraded module-init-tools according to what I've read, but will a new version exist OK on 9.1, and what about automake and autoconfig- do we need newer versions of those too? Has anybody done it yet? Basically, I'm ready to compile anything needed from source, but before when I've tried this, I always ran into drastic versions of dependency hell- to such an extent I was forced to give up. I managed to get 2.4.20 with the ck preemptive kernel patch to work fine on 9.0, but can't find a ck or rml preemptive patch for 2.4.21 as yet, so I thought 2.5.65 might be worth a try, as it is already preemptive. In my case, the preemptive kernel gave a noticable performance boost. Any advice is much appreciated. Thanks, Robert Crawford Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

I have not tried building this for Mandrake 9.1 yet. If Mandrake has backported the nptl thread library into the kernel and glibc like Redhat 9.0 does, then it is not going to work. The nptl threads from the 2.5.x kernel use segment registers that the nVIDIA driver's opengl code uses. The collision is double-plus ungood. If it is a similar issue (and like I said, I don't know if Mandrake has done this in 9.1) then you will have a problem. I will be ordering my copy of 9.1 after payday.

I've just installed ML 9.1 (and will be joining the club as soon as I've got 60 bucks free :), which installs Apache 2 by default. I don't mind using it (I think :), but I've got a question regarding configuring ssl for it. With Apache 1.3, it was fairly straight forward to configuring your own site certificiate with the stuff that appeared in the configuration directories. However, none of those directories or files seem to be present in Apache 2. At least, not in the places I'm looking for them. :-) So, does anyone know how to go about generating your own site certificate for use with Apache 2? As much detail as possible would be helpful. :-) Thanks in advance for any help. --Dave -- David Guntner GEnie: Just say NO! http://www.akaMail.com/pgpkey/davidg or key server for PGP Public key Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Whether I have DESKTOP=KDE, DESKMANAGER=KDM, or both in the /etc/sysconfig/desktop file, the system goes directly into KDE. That was not the original configuration, but I've installed Mandrake 7.2, then 8.1, 8.2, and 9.0 maintaining the same home partition. In one of those installs I must have chosen a different option, or there is some crud in my home directory that made the change. (I did have something like that happen with Mozilla.) Anyway, I don't plan to pursue this any further. I've put "kdm" in rc.local so I can log in from an X terminal. If others have the same trouble, maybe there is a bug in kde -- maybe very few people ever try using Mandrake 9.0 as an application server. regards, Randy Kramer Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

[expert] Mandrake 9.1 installation: the best of the best!!
I have installed 9.1 in two computers (one of them a laptop) and the experience has been the best I have ever had. A) Pentium III 800, 256Mb Ram, Nvidia Geforce4 Ti4200, Avermedia Tv, dvd, cdrw, scanner epson Perfection 1200U (usb), printer epson stylus 760 (usb), printer hp laserjet 4L parallel, creative 128b sound card, cable-modem 128 kb/s, Logitech wireless mouse. Ip masquering to conect the laptop (eth0 and eth1 presents). Results: everythin instaled (even the scanner). Applications runing faster than under 9.0. Fonts fantastic!, OpenOffice looks great with antialising even on the menu text! B) Toshiba Satellite 4090XCDT, 191Mb Ram, Cyber 9525 video card, sound card maestro 2, eth0 pcmcia. Results: everything installed but not the included windomed (detected but, of course, not module). Video card well installed, but screen as one Toshiba p&p and not full screen avalaible (changed by one generic SVGA and full screen now runing ant 1024x728 16bpi). Internet installed, cups remote printers accesible. Great the video driver, for the first time in this laptop I can play Clanbomber without givin a white screen, moreover: I can run xine and watch video cds and avi films without problems (this never happened before!, thanks XFree86 4.3! :-)). Fonts wonderfulls! great appareance under gnome and under kde. More applications run faster than under 9.0. Just acpi I don't know if it is possible activate in this laptop; also I had some problems with supermount after a bad lecture of a cdrw, but after restart I haven't had any problem. Conclusions: How could I wait until today to install 9.1 in the laptop?; I have several classes to give using the laptop and presentations wit OpenOffice and I was afraid about the results, so this afternoon, after finishing my last clase, I started the installation. Is, without doubt, the best linux distributions avalaible!! Note for windows user: every time a new windows release appears, you need a best computer to run it; every time a Mandrake release appears, your old computer run faster and better; I was thinking about a new laptop to watch vcd and avi movies, but now I don't need a new one.

[expert] Product Question
Hello All: I've been a very happy 8.2 user for a long time. Now that 9.1 is out I'm considering upgrading a machine. Just a couple questions: 1) Does 9.1 have an easy DVD playback solution? I.e., do either the installation CDs come with all appropriate RPMS (including libdvdcss, dvdread, etc) or are Mandrake specific packages availalble online? 2) If there a way to purchase the the $39 version without shipping? In other words, charge my credit card but point me to a priority access server for downloading the ISOs? Thanks Kwan Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Mandrake 9.1 doesn't always seems to display fonts correctly. Often times fonts will overlap vertically or horizontally. Highlighting the text in question will fix the problems though.

There is also a PLF ISO (the 9.1 PLF ISO is in beta now) to ease installation of PLF packages. The ISO has the Mandrake installer built in and if you boot from it during the original install, it adds PLF as one of the package groups during install.

I did succeed with the 2.4.20 + patches, and I have rebuilt the 2.4.21-pre4 srpm for athlon-xp, and that worked too. If I'm not careful, I might wind up knowing almost what I'm doing here!

[expert] 9.1 says "No DISK drive!"
Installing 9.1 from an hd.img floppy immediately says "No DISK drive!" My two hard disks are primaries on hde and hdg. They have to be because they are ATA100 or above and IDE0 and IDE1 only support ATA66 and below. Many motherboards operate this way. 9.0 installed and runs perfectly on this configuration. The strong implication is that nobody in Mandrake development or QA uses ATA100 or up disk drives - true? Once more, another release showstopper reported by Ron.

Re: [expert] 9.1 and 2.5.xx kernel questions
I found both the multimedia 2.4.21 rpms and srpm in the regular ibiblio contribs mirror. Does anyone know if those indeed have the preemptive patch, or is there a different version in the Club? Also, what exactly is the difference between the multimedia and stock versions? Also found a "mosix" version, whatever that is.

Re: [expert] 9.1 and 2.5.xx kernel questions
Thanks, Todd. I guess I must have missed something when trying to do 2.5 kernels on 9.0- it's back to the drawing board for me, now that I know it can be done. BTW, did you like the results of running a 2.5 kernel on 9.0? In other words, was it worth the trouble in terms of performance vs. any problems?

[expert] No sound in 9.1?
I've done a clean install of 9.1 on the machine which used to run 9.0. In 9.0, I had sound. In 9.1, only silence. No hardware has changed, so I'm kind-of hard pressed to figure out why I can't get any sound out of 9.1. Anyone run into anything like this, and if so, how did you solve it?
