hi, I've been keeping up to date with cooker over the past three weeks or so on two different machine and there is a problem I'm having that I cannot figure out how to fix. I have an Athlon XP1700+, 256Mb ram, 3Dfx Voodoo 3 3000 video card (AGP) and everything works fine except for anything that changes the video mode. X works for normal desktop kde stuff, but if I ctrl-alt- + or - to change resolutions the entire X session with die and I'll be back at KDM. Also, once this happens I'm unable to switch to any other virtual terminal. If I do I get a frozen portion of the KDM screen and the system will hard lock.
I've had this problem before, but I can't remember what fixed it. I do have DRI enabled, and I've verified that I have the newest packages installed. The only other annoyance I have with 8.2 is an issue with rpmdrake: when downloading packages the grpmi dialog does not update the fetching: progress bar. Only by starting rpmdrake from a command line and watching as it selects each package do I knwo it's doing anything. It will update the current package on the dialog, but I think the dialog should show the progress of the file download. It used to... also I think that the little bouncing progress bar the pops up when you update the package selection should also be more informative, like showing the progress of the hdlist.cz file as it downloads it. At 13+ megs, even on a cable modem it takes a few minutes... Just me .03 worth. thanks, Scott
