[Cooker] Comments on 8.2RC1

2002-03-14 Thread Justin Young
Mmm... Great job on the installer. I liked the fact that I was able to set-up NTP during the install. (Hear that, Sun?) I'm just curious why the printer selection (even for an upgrade) defaults to a remote CUPS server... Minor issue: During login via x/kdm as root, the system complains that

[Cooker] KDE still busted in beta3

2002-02-25 Thread Justin Young
It seems as if the installer created a permissions problem. I created a brand new user. When I tried to login as this new user under KDE (using kdm), I still got the same message about being unable to start the DCOPs server. Of course, as root all was well. Again, this was an upgrade from

I upgraded a MDK 8.2-Beta1 config to Beta3 this morning on my homemade Celeron (TNT1) system. The install went flawlessly. (Kudos to the Mandrake team!) However, when I tried to login as myself (*NOT root*) via kdm, I got the following weird IPC error There was an error setting up

Do the same thing you would for Solaris and every other Linux distribution but RedHat. Add gnome-session (/usr/bin/gnome-session if you're a purist) to your .xinitrc file. At Tue, 08 May 2001 22:58:40 +0200, you wrote I installed MDK 7.2 fine on my machiine but it boots up in KDE while I would

I've got it running (beta 3) w/ an ATI Radeon 32 DDR card (OEM from Dell). I'll let you know how well it runs Tux and UT. However, I do experience some rather nasty lock-ups with X whenever I run Mozilla-0.8.1. I foolishly am running in run-level 5 so even cntrl-alt-backspace doesn't quite

Ack. I just upgraded my work machine from 7.2 to 8.0 beta. Everything looks good (my Radeon card is finally supported!), but there's no networking. I can ping the eth0 address and the loopback. The tulip driver is loaded, etc. The light's on on the switch. I've been a sysadmin for 7 years.

You're kidding, right? You want me to take a highly stable (except for NFS) filesystem like ReiserFS and chunk it for Linux XFS? No enterprise is going to be happier with XFS vs. Reiser for now. As an enterprise user, I can tell you that I'm waiting for VeritasFS. I'd like a journaling

OMS is *NOT* ready to be included in a Linux distribution. It works for porn if you mute the sound. That's about it. The audio doesn't yet synch w/ the video. Once LinDVD is ready, it'll likely start shipping w/ DVD-ROM drives. (It won't be free so Mandrake won't include it w/ the d/l

I didn't see it in 7.0. Before I do this install (buying one of those $139/$239 Celerons at Fry's for the test), is kirc included? (Yes, I know I should've done the install before posting. But, it's Wednesday, and I'm using my dumb question of the week allotment.) Thanks.

Dude, you are mistaken. A V1(Blech!) has no 2D support. It's a 3D (quite slow nowadays, too) only solution. A V2 has no 2D support either. You could use it for Glide (ha!) support. However, you're not going to use it in a 2D dual-head capacity. Your Ultra TNT2 will blow either one of these
