The Kprinter problem of not saving the Properties is fixed. good job!
The XSane app not running is fixed... good job!
The Kprinter working with XSane now at least runs, but comes up with
this dialog box:
Heading: Printer error - kprinter
Message: Can't print from STDIN: use

Just thought you should know that after a system restart, running
cdrecord -scanbus the first time always gives an error. Run it again
and it's fine.
Below are the two times running it:

Have tried to compile several apps, and while running configure, it
crashes on Qt.
Fully freshened to latest Cooker, and latest qt libs of course:

The error it gives is:

Mike--- I suggest you burn another CD, as it looks like that one has a

the top one is still broken:

Maybe add some additional buttons Pixel. I believe every dialog should
have a *Back* button and a *Next* or *Skip* button anyway. There are

Juan thanks for the effort, but I had given up and bought a new network
card, and now I don't have a problem, as it uses differen't drivers.
A couple of other people told me I didn't have a problem, so apparently I
didn't have a problem.
Anyway, you say it's fixed, I believe you. :)

I think cooker is broken--- emails don't seem to be getting through---
I suggest that each of the Mandrake tools have a small change in their
naming layout for the directory listing, and for other reasons.
The way it is right now, each of the tools are laid out in their name
just a little different, which makes it hard to easily spot a Mandrake
Tool. And

Meir--- it looks like you are missing a third digit number after the

Mine is dev-0,0,0 as you can see, three digits.
I suggest you run cdrecord -scanbus to see what those three digits

I agree with you George-- Msec is definitely one of the tools that
could use a frontend, just like we have one for rsync (DrakSync).
I say again too these Drak tools should all be in the 'Mandrake

I suggest that on Cooker that we Tar or Bzip the mdkinst directory into
a single file, and drop it into the Mandrake directory. This would
speed downloading this directory of files considerably. Even on DSL,
this download right now is so very slow with a gillion files and
subdirectories.
