------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-22-09 21:23 ------- Depends on a package and compatibility with a package should not be equivalent. I have no problem with it working with a mouse, just a big problem for it to depend on a package I don't need. As I said, it works fine in SuSE 8.1 with no gpm running or even installed. In RedHat 9, I did 'chkconfig --level 2 gpm off' and rebooted to runlevel 2. Mc still works fine there, so I doubt gpm has anything material to do with this bug. FWIW, mc-4.5.46-1mdk in Mandrake 7.1 works fine too. In comment 25 I said I installed gpm. That put it in /etc/rc.d/init.d, which NAICT means the lack of improvement after installing gpm meant no improvment with gpm running. -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: UNCONFIRMED creation_date: description: mc startup has actually been fubar since at least 9.0, possibly before that, but I can't remember. I haven't stopwatched it, but if started immediately upon 1st login after boot, it must be taking at least one minute, a seeming eternity, both in 9.1 and 9.2rc1. Upon entering mc at shell prompt, the screen is blanked, cursor goes to bottom left, and nothing happens for a while. Eventually, some liblow error messages quickly scroll up the screen too fast to read, and mc becomes ready to use. Hardware is rather old, P200 for rc1, with 128 MB RAM & PCI graphics card, but immaterially better on K6/2-500 with 256 MB RAM and same graphics adapter for 9.1, and on a P3-450 with 768 MB RAM and G450 graphics adapter..
