there is an incompatibility between the reiserfs in 2.2 and 2.4, IIRC.
this is really odd. rpmdrake has suddenly developed amnesia about
my install cdroms. i look at the list of packages available, and
select one. i click on 'install/remove'. it tells me to insert

hmmm, rpmdrake wanted libcurl.so.2, which i installed, but it
seems grpmi wanted libcurl.so.1. a quick 'ln -s' and rpmdrake
is chugging along...
Okay, so I went and downloaded libcurl2-7.7.3-1mdk and installed it.
rpmdrake came up fine. I told it to update the list and it started
printing out messages in my terminal window (since i launched it

Maybe I'm missing something? I've done a couple of installs of 7.2 and it
doesn't seem to automatically handle daylight savings time. I don't recall
seeing anything (even in expert mode install) pertaining to this. It was
really annoying, since everytime I rebooted, any initial file activit

I just want to reemphasize that I wasn't intending to flame anyone. But my
point remains. When linux was a totally ad-hoc thing, there was an excuse
for this kind of thing. Now, with companies like mandrake building and
shipping distros, I sometimes wonder if there is even a pretense at qual

I have to say I see Sean's POV (although he may have stated the case a
little strongly). I do Sw maintenance for a living, and in my business, if
something worked in Rev X, and doesn't work in Rev X+1, that is a
bug. Specifically, a regression, since someone broke code/functionality

Has anyone noticed duplicate cron jobs being run? It doesn't happen all
the time, so it may not have been noticed by me until I installed mrtg
(which runs a root cron job every 5 minutes). At first, I thought it was a
bug with mrtg, since the error email complained that the mrtg lockfile

I couldn't get squid_redirect to work for me. Half the pages I went to,
nothing displayed. After a bit, nothing at all would work, and I saw
messages in the logfile about "too many queued redirector processes". Did
I miss something that needed changing?
