As it turns out, I did have gnome2 installed, but ldconfig wasn't looking at
/opt/gnome2/lib, where the needed file resided. I did ldconfig
/opt/gnome2/lib and gdm is working fine now.
However, now I have the problem that when I choose the GNOME2 session in gdm,
it brings up IceWM instead.
I just upgraded to Mandrake 9.0.
Gdm used to work just fine, but now it doesn't want to start on boot. Kdm
does work. When I try to run gdm (as root) from the command line I get the
error message:
# gdm -nodaemon
/usr/bin/gdm-binary: error while loading shared libraries: libgnome-2.0.so.0:
Hmm... this command returns nothing. That must be a bad thing. :)
I tried messing around with ldconfig, because it has solved problems for me
before, but I don't understand it well enough to use it as it probably should
be used.
ldconfig -p | grep libgnome returns the following, FWIW:
I have a handy piece of script that I put in the .bash_profile of my
Solaris account so that whenever I log in using SSH, my DISPLAY variable
is automatically set to the IP I'm SSH-ing from:
if [ $SSH_CLIENT != ]; then
export DISPLAY=`echo $SSH_CLIENT | cut -d -f1`:0

This code is
Well, shucks. :)

Hi all,
I mostly use my Linux system remotely via XDMCP. Does anyone know about
ways to play sound remotely over the network? I've heard of the
Network Audio System. Are there others? Has anyone been able to get
one to work? (FWIW, I've got Mandrake 8.2 and I mostly use Gnome.)
Thanks,
Did you do a make mrproper before starting the whole compilation?
I've gotten similar errors in the past and that has solved them. (Note:
I believe this will wipe out any existing /usr/src/linux/.config you
have. But as you're loading a file from elsewhere, this shouldn't be a
concern.)

Thanks for posting this!
Whenever I mounted a Samba share after installing 8.2 (with the 2.4.18
kernel), an ls of the share directory would hang, and then ls anywhere
would hang. I was never able to kill the processes, and eventually I
would have to reboot. This patch solved the problem!

I have a laptop that runs the netfs service on boot in order to mount a
remote Samba filesystem. However, being a laptop, it's not always
connected to the network.
Can I make it so that if netfs fails to find the Samba server on boot,
it will attempt to connect repeatedly -- say, every 5
I just updated an 8.2-RC1 machine to the 8.2 official release, and I'm
seeing the problem again myself. My .config, for anyone interested, is
attached.

I did the update:

This happened to me when I tried to compile a 2.4.18 Mandrake kernel on
Mandrake 8.1 a little while back. I had downloaded and installed the
kernel-source and kernel-headers RPMs from cooker (I think they were
version 2.4.18-something and 2.4.17-something, respectively, at the
time). I was
