It appears it isn't the CPU or the filesystem. I'm ReiserFS on / (which
contains /boot) and a AMD CPU.
Just to summarize my setup again:
2.0GHz Athlon-XP
512MB PC3000 RAM (dual channel)
MSI K7N2 Nforce2
120GB Maxtor 7200/2MB
/ reiserfs 8GB /dev/hda1
/export reiserfs 100GB /dev/hda6
The half-assed way MS is doing it is a hack. What you probably really want
is true snapshots which are done at the FS level. Check out NetApp for an
example...snapshots are VERY handy and VERY fast way to save yourself from
having to go to tape. (ie. 1sec to snapshot a 0.5TB filesystem) The
I can verify this behaviour (panic on boot) on:
K7N2
NForce2
512MB
120GB Maxtor

I actually hope there is a fix fairly soon, I just accidentially removed my
running kernel due to the versioning mix up of April/May. Anyone have the
previous kernel .rpm laying around?

I've tried a couple of times to build a kernel from the latest kernel-
sources with the defconfig file in arch/i386 and it craps out in the
ambassador.c file in the atm section. Is the defconfig not the .config that
the packaged RPM is made with? If not, where is the RPM .config file? If
so,

If your rpm database is buggy, this should fix. Else, you have
really double entries in your database.

I just did a a urpmi --update --auto-select on my system and it seemed to
work fine, when finished I found I had a TON of duplicate RPMS. I have the
new one and the original RPM. Here is an example:
kdepim-3.1.1-5mdk
kdepim-3.1.2-3mdk
rpm-4.2-7mdk
rpm-build-4.2-1mdk
rpm-build-4.2-7mdk
Hoping someone will confirm or deny that nforce drivers do not compile under
cooker, making nforce 2 (specifically MSI K7N2) unusable unless you are
using an old kernel (2.4.19-16 from 9.0) and nvnet drivers compiled on 9.0
compiler.
I'll document and bug this if nobody responds shortly, just
the concequences so I had a working
nvnet/nvaudio on .19-16 around for failsafe. (audio not actually working,
but not my real concern...no net is fatal, no audio is annoying)

Greetings,
I have a Sony z505lsk which I have cooker over a 9.0 install and I have a
problem with the post 2.4.19 kernels. Each time I try to boot one of them
my machine gets just past the 'mounting root read/write' and simply turns
itself off. This was the case with 2.4.20-??? from cooker

As Arnd reports, it appears that you can either have AA'ed font or
_old_style_ fonts under QT 2.3.
Further, it would appear that when using AA'ed fonts you need to define them
with a XftConfig file or you will only get _FIXED_.
