[expert] Firewall and Proxy
Starting with Mandrake 7.0 I've now reached Mandrake 8.1 by updating. I'm very pleased with this version: Everything works fine: X with hardware acceleration, tv, parallel port scanner, cups, vmware etc. But there remains one problem: My second pc (pentium 133 mhz with MDK-8.0) uses the proxy wwwoffle, which runs on the 1st pc to connect to the internet. This works fine when I stop the firewall which I set up with DrakConf. But of course I want to use the firewall, because all tests say that it is very effective. How can I open port 8080 just for my 2nd pc? Many thanks for any hints Uli Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

It works. glibc-2.2.3-2mdk seems to be buggy. Uli Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://.mandrakestore.com
[expert] locale and Mandrake Freq 3
Since I have updated to LM 8.0 Freq 3 I have problems with locale: /etc/sysconfig/i18n looks like this: SYSFONT=lat0-sun16 LC_MONETARY=de_DE LC_CTYPE=de_DE LANGUAGE=de_DE:de LC_TIME=de_DE LC_NUMERIC=de_DE LC_COLLATE=de_DE LC_MESSAGES=de_DE LANG=de SYSFONTACM=iso15 But when I start e.g. g++, I get the message perl: warning: Setting locale failed. perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings: LANGUAGE = "de_DE:de", LC_ALL = (unset), LC_MESSAGES = "de_DE", LC_TIME = "de_DE", LC_NUMERIC = "de_DE", LC_CTYPE = "de_DE", LC_MONETARY = "de_DE", LC_COLLATE = "de_DE", LANG = "de" are supported and installed on your system. perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C"). And it´s not only this message, but all menus are in English instead of German. With Mandrake 8.0 Freq 2 there were no problems. Is there any bug in glibc-2.2.3-2mdk? I have read some similar reports in the mail lists, but there was no satisfying answer. And another question: How can I set locale? Is it really by editing /etc/sysconfig/i18n?

[expert] Re: antialiasing / nautilus
I'm very pleased with Mandrake 8.0. I have one fresh installation with very good hardware detection on a 133-MHz pentium. On a 600 MHz pentium I've upgraded MDK 7.0 - cooker - MDK 7.2 - cooker - MDK 8.0. Mandrake 8.0 is without any doubt the best linux I ever had (I started with DLD-5.4). Until now I found two problems: 1. when I activate antialiasing KDE doesn't start correctly: with startx I get: (II) R128(0): Acceleration enabled ... (II) Keyboard "Keyboard1" handled by legacy driver (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Mouse1" (type: MOUSE) kdeinit: Shutting down running client. - It looks like dcopserver is already running. If you are sure that it is not already running, remove /home/uli/.DCOPserver_siemens_:0 and start dcopserver again. - KDE Daemon (kded) already running. Error while initializing the sound driver: device /dev/dsp can't be opened (Device or resource busy) KCrash: crashing crashRecursionCounter = 2 KCrash: Application Name = kmixctrl path = QSocketNotifier: Multiple socket notifiers for same socket 6 and type read KCrash: crashing crashRecursionCounter = 2 KCrash: Application Name = kwin path = KCrash: crashing crashRecursionCounter = 2 KCrash: Application Name = kdesktop path = ERROR: KUniqueApplication: DCOP communication error!
