Hi
I installed most of the packages from MandrakeFreq using the Software
Manager (except KDE 2.2 alpha).
The good news are:
- kernel 2.4.5-5mdksmp fixed my pbm with my Promise Ultra100 TX2
basically I can now access the dma mode for my 2 drives using
this card, and that makes a difference!
hdparm -t /dev/hde reports 38.10 MB/sec for my UDMA100 drive
hdparm -t /dev/hdg reports 22.38 MB/sec for my UDMA66 drive
Both entries were giving around 1.70 MB/sec with LM 8.0 2.4.3
(no comment)
- XFree86 4.1.0 seems ok so far, even with my binary NVidia
driver 1.0-1251
- Nautilus, Galeon, Evolution seem to be working fine as well.
The bad news:
- I can't use "iptables" anymore...
#iptables -L gives:
iptables v1.2.2: can't initialize iptables table 'filter': Module
is wrong version
Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded
note: I had the pbm after upgrading to the kernel-smp from
MandrakeFreq, I then downloaded iptables-1.2.2 from cooker
but same pbm
Is it possible that the iptable_filter module in net/ipv4/netfilter
is misbehaving?
Also I recompiled my own kernel from 2.4.5-5mdk source and same
pbm.
Any idea?
Conclusion: Thanks Mandrake for the update (it really fixes a big pbm
on my system) but I now need iptables to work :)
Pls reply to my email address, I'm only suscribed to "expert".
Cheers,
Fred
