Dropped back to 2.4.21-0.25mdk and it works fine, additionally sound now works.

Visor module is loaded automatically at boot. It's enabled in /etc/sysconfig/usb. But, I have unloaded and reloaded with the cradle connected and nothing.

Re: [Cooker] too many kernels installed
urpmi now has kernell listed in /etc/urpmi/inst.lst this causes new kernels to be installed, not upgraded, so the list of installed kernels keeps growing. Also, if you are manually removing multiply listed packages you must use the rpm switch --allmatches.

Okay I did that again just in case. See suggestion to add above usb-storage sd_mod to /etc/modules.conf. It may be below as well, does not matter in this case. okay I added alias usb-storage sd_mod to /etc/modules.conf though as you mentioned in my earlier sandisk postings it is NOT being acknowledged by my system as being loaded I have a 'storage=yes' in /etc/sysconfig/usb. okay I went ahead and did that Should not be needed actually ... as long as it is supported variant. -andrej So I am still getting the usual; #mount /mnt/smartmedia mount: /dev/sda1: unknown device Ah Well maybe I will eventually hear from the sandisk folks !!!???

[Cooker] Kudzu messing up XF86Config-4 on mouse detection
I have been taking my laptop from home (logitech USB wheel mouse) to the office (built-in ps/2 mouse) and having kudzu handle detection and configuration for months. Without any problem. With a recent upgrade: kudzu-0.99.14-1mdk XFree86-4.1.0-10mdk kudzu now leaves /dev/mouse linked to mouse (back to itself). It also leaves an incomplete definition of Mouse2 in XF86Config-4: Section InputDevice Identifier Mouse2 Option Protocol Option Device /dev/ EndSection

I still have the SRPMS sitting around. Maybe grousse wants to help me on this, and then we can upload them to /incoming. I think the GSM audio codec also needs to be removed, but I'm currently not aware of how to do this. I tried to compile MPlayer a few days ago, and it complains about gcc-2.96 : Checking version of gcc ... 2.96, bad Please downgrade(upgrade) gcc compiler to gcc-2.95.2+ or gcc-3.0+ version I'm very interested if you can compile it.

Are they really different packages or has somebody just dropped a hyphen? Is this package naming or a shortcoming in RPM?

[Cooker] Samba upgrade breaks smbmount to older server?

Re: [Cooker] why does kapm-idled spin the cpu so often?
Yes, yes, we've heard this before. It is not a satisfactory answer, clearly the "idle" loop in kapm-idled could use a nice sleep(15) or something!! Chmouel Boudjnah wrote: SI Reasoning [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: There are good stretches of the day where my CPU spins at around 50% or more and the process spinning is kapm-idled. This is not a problem in 7.2. --=-=-= http://www.tux.org/lkml/#s14-1: 1.Why is kapmd using so much CPU time? (REG) Don't worry, it's not stealing valuable CPU time from other processes. It's just consuming idle cycles (normally charged to the idle task, which is displayed differently in top). Normally, when your system is idle, the system idle task is run, and this is shown as idle time (i.e. the "unused" CPU time is not charged to a specific process). With APM (Advanced Power Management), a special idle task (kapmd) is required so that greater power saving techniques can be enabled. So now, the "unused" CPU time is charged to the kapmd task instead. --=-=-= --=-=-= http://olstrans.sourceforge.net/release/OLS2000-apm/OLS2000-apm.html: In 2.2 and before, we basically had a hook into the idle loop, so that if we had APM enabled, we would just tell the BIOS that we're idle. In 2.3, Linus thought it would be a good idea if we had a separate power management idle loop, so (he) we invented the kernel APM daemon and I started getting bug reports about this process that was using all our time, called kapmd. And if you sat there just running top on a 2.3 kernel, the top process, if you're not doing anything else, will be kapmd and it will be using like 85% or 90% or 95% of your CPU time. These people were worried because it was idle: why is it using all of the time? Well actually, it's just that the time is getting accounted to that process. It's not doing anything, it's the idle loop.

I'm sorry, but I just can't buy that. Those of you on desktops
may not be able to tell, but if you're on a laptop the fan spins
up when something is chewing the CPU cycles. This happens when
something slips into an infinite loop (like netscape!) or when
compiling (fair enough). But a daemon in a wait, or blocking
on a select should never do this.

By what instrument are you measuring it? I know of one that will show you
99.9% CPU usage simultaneously on up to five processes! "Wow," said my
compatriates, "when can I have an SMP test machine?"
And I see also the frequent report of "kapm-idled sucking up my CPU cycles"
The truth is, SOME process is always waiting for an event or taking up CPU
time. Just until now the truth-in-reporting law has never been strictly
enforced. When you see an idle process hogging your CPU, look at its "nice"
number. If that is in the range of positive 16 to positive 20, it means you
are letting your computer run without you, and whatever process is
broadcasting a short message over the net or checking for a PIO event on a
very low priority is being given all that idel time to do it. Cups does
broadcast its presence if you have a queue on your own machine, even if you
have no network except 127.0.0.1. If you leave the machine on overnight,
what ELSE is going to take up time besides updatedb and makewhatis?
