[expert] Artsd
Just wondering if anyone in the mandrake team is going to fix the artsd packages soon? Seems that a lot people are also having the same problem with the 2.1.2-2 artsd packages. Should I downgrade to 2.1.1-7 for now? Thanks :) On Friday 01 June 2001 07:06 pm, ninetysix wrote: I too have the same problem now after upgrading to the newest rpms using software manager.

If any one knows how to get arts-2.1.2-2 and libarts2.-2.1.2-2 to work, I'd like to know how you did it.
Re: [expert] arts constantly dies now after I updated
I too have the same problem now after upgrading to the newest rpms using software manager. When I launch artsd -l 0 and then open another terminal and just hit the backspace key to make that beep sound, it crashes artsd with this message.

[expert] xconsole
Does anyone have any hints or a config file to make xconsole work under X? I can't seem to get the right syntax to get it working. I always get Couldn't open console when I launch it with root. Thanks all. Ninetysix
[expert] Transparent panel menu
Anyone know how to get this transparent panel menu like on this screenshot @themes.org. It really looks cool :) http://www.themes.org/php/pic.phtml?src=shots/989550503.jpg
[expert] AntiAliasing with xfs?
Is xfs sufficient enough to hand antialiasing of TrueType fonts? Would entering each fontpath in XF86Config-4 including TTF fonts be better? Or using another font server such as xfstt be better for rendering TTF fonts? Anyone using AA, please let me know what your set-up is and if TTF fonts are displayed right. Thanks.
[expert] kdelibs 2.1.2
Anyone compile this yet? Mandrake rpms is not available yet from kde and I just want to know if anyone had sucessfully compiled the source.
[expert] Kernel config file
Does anyone have the .config file used by Mandrake or something similar that closely resembles their kernels? I tried to compile my own kernel and it came out to about 2MB compared to 700k-800k for mandrake kernels. I though I already disabled most of the stuff that I don't need but I guess not :) Really puzzles me how those 700k/800k kernels has so much drivers in it. Thanks.
[expert] Konqueror in 8.0
For those of you who didn't do a clean install of Mandrake 8, has anyone figured out why konqueror crashes with that signal 11 when previewing text/picture files? I heard that konqueror doesn't crash when you do a clean install but I really don't want to do this since I have a lot of extra stuff that I compiled and changed in my system. Would anyone in the mandrake team investigate on this? :) Thanks.
Re: [expert] Konqueror problem in 8
I downloaded the kernel 2.4.4 and it compiled just fine. I'm actually not the only one who are getting crashes with konqueror with the signal 11 error. Mostly those people who upgraded from a previous release (from 7.2 to me) has the same problem with konqueror. Hopefully a newer release of kde will fix this problem? On Saturday 28 April 2001 18:12, you wrote: ninetysix wrote: The application Konqueror (konqueror) crashed and caused the signal 11 (SIGSEGV). This is remarkably close to Sigal 11 when compiling. Can you try compiling the kernel? If you get sig11's when compiling, it inevitably points to bad hardware, usually RAM.
[expert] Konqueror problem in 8
Yes I do have the same problem with my system. It's an upgraded 7.2 to 8 install. Konqueror now crashes most of the time specially when viewing a text file with it. The application Konqueror (konqueror) crashed and caused the signal 11 (SIGSEGV). Does anyone have a fresh clean install of Mandrake 8 and is able to view text files with konqueror without crashing it? Ulyssis Has anyone else had process died unexpectedly often in mandrake 8? Im using beta 3 with th X and KDE packages upgraded to those that come with 8.0 -- Microsoft is not the answer, its the question. And the answer is no. www.badran.co.uk
