Hi all,
The decreasing concentration of CH3-CH2-OH seem to have marvelous
effects :))) !!!
Stuff to report about this version:
Graphical install went without a hich, still no install details when
the button is pressed but no more showstopper bugs like in previous few
versions.
BIG BAD BUG: For the first time since Mandrake-7.2 the install program
failed to find my SMP board ( ASUS P3D, 2XP-III 850 ) and installed the
single processor kernel, problem easy corrected after install, but still
a BAD BUG.
After install:
BIG BAD BUG: Again after of long time of flawlessly working under
console my ordinary M$ wheel mouse become crazy in text consoles when X
is started, I had to stop gpm because it cuts and paste completly random
crap !!!
ANNOYNG BUGLET: When started first time and after converting profile
from Netscape, Mozilla dies leaving some spare mozilla-bin proceses,
once those are killed and mozilla restarted everyting is OK, strange !!!
OLD BUG: xchat still linked with the old python, cooker src.rpm is
unbuildable because one of the dependinces ask for libgr that seem to be
purged from MAndrake since 7.2 or so !!!
CAN WE JUST FIX THAT DAMNED BUG: Yup, DrakConf still borked, here is
the list of all missing png images, PLEASE SOMEBODY PAY ATTENTION:
missing png file drakfloppy-mdk.png
missing png file security-mdk_highlight.png
missing png file drakboot-mdk.png
missing png file XFdrake-mdk.png
missing png file harddrake-mdk.png
missing png file draknet-mdk.png
missing png file drakgw-mdk.png
missing png file draksec-mdk.png
missing png file firewall-mdk.png
missing png file service-mdk.png
missing png file drakfont-mdk.png

after putting all those by hand it finally dies completly with:

It seem that there is a LOT of work on this one :(((( and BTW what are
those wizards and why are they not put as dependinicies if they are
needed ????
GAME BUG: NetHack dies but this was previously reported by someone
else.
That's it, go to stress some other poor packages and anoy you with
LARGE and detailed bug reports ;).
