Hi,
Have just done a clean install of beta4, and then updated all packages to
reflect the local cooker mirror.
I have come across some problems that did not occur with beta 3.
1. The first one involves supermount and my scsi burner.
If I insert a cd in the burner, and try to cd /mnt/cdrom3 I get the error:
bash: cd: cdrom3: Input/output error
This problem was not present in beta3 - the burner worked perfectly.
2. Monumental problems with locales/languages and fonts.
When I start kde control panel| personalisation| country and languages the
defaults are set to: country: united kingdom (gb)
language: default (c)
charset: iso8859-15
I then change the country setting to Australia, and it automatically changes
the langauge to English en en_GB and the charset remains at 8859-15.
I click apply, close down control centre, start control centre again and all
my changes are gone - its reverted back to the defaults.
Same happens if I click apply and logout and then in. All settings gone.
Additionally, if I change any settings in the numbers, money, time and dates
tabs, then the country, language and charset settings revert back to the
defaults.
3. Font problems
When kde started up for the first time it was using the helvitica font as the
general font, but a really huge size.
When I go to change the general font, I click on choose and get a drop down
box with a list of lots and lots of fonts, including the adobe fonts, and a
couple called mdk-xxx
I chose the font adobe-helvitica 11 point, clicked ok and then clicked apply
in control panel.
BANG.. all the fonts are suddently changed to something completely different
(AD MONO and Adventure I think). If I try to change them back, then the list
of fonts has reduced to few very, all the adobe and mdk-xxx fonts are gone.
I have left the AA setting to on.
Hope this is useful to someone, please ask for more info if needed!!!!
