Subject: [Cooker] Several Problems


Downloaded every cooker RPMs through mirror yesterday (August 1).
Installation from the hard disk went fine but during boot up and shutdown i
get this error message (aroud 50+ lines of them).

awk: cmd. line:1: warning: escape sequence `\.' treated as plain `.'

I did notice that there is a "ddebug.log" under the /root diectory and
among the text are these warnings:

* warning: Modification of a read-only value attempted at
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/MDK/Common/Globals.pm line 28.

But it does boot up fine despite all these warnings. Everything seems to
work fine except for the Software Manager: Attempts at installing
additional RPMs resulted in failure. Everytime it is invoked it cranks up
and goes through the motion as if it is installing and gives the message
"everything already installed" "Congratulations .. blah ..blah". A check
though would reveal that nothing really was installed.

BTW i installed both Gnome and KDE and chose gui log-in. Unlike in LM 8.0
though Gnome is not included anymore as a choice in the gui log-in menu.
What do i do to add a Gnome session among the choices?

cheers,
