I seem to have a conflict that causes Mdk to perform poorly. No version
I've tried to date runs well. This includes 6.0, boxed 6.1 PowerPack-which
wouldn't install the first disk, and 7.0-2. Needless to say I am as
frustrated as the kind folks who are privately trying to help me.
Symptoms: The fontserver crashes in Gnome when I try to select a font from
the pull down menu. I see many warnings and error messages about the
screensaver Atlantis in Gnome. The GUI Netscape and Xterm will not open
once an internet connection has been established. During boot ? is force
checked. 0.1% is "non contiguous." Gnome help file warning error "NULL"
The monitor was never been correctly identified but once configured does
not seem to cause any problems.
Hardware:
Tyan S1590s/VIA chipset AT motherboard; K2-500 CPU; 160 P-100 RAM.
2-Western Digital Caviar drives; 1-Seagate harddrive. All 5400 spin speed.
Hi-Val CD-ROM; generic floppy.
Sound Blaster AWE16.
Aopen S3Virge PCI or Diamond S3Trio AGP. PCI in use currently.
Digiview HR 70+ 17" multisync capable.
Deere brand 250watt AT power supply.
Setup:
hda1: 3.2GB WD /boot(LILO)19MG
Winblows 98 (bad block in G partition.
hdb1: 8.4 WD /swap & Mdk
hdb3: .850 Seagate Winblows
Distro: Mdk7.0-2.
Monitor 800x600 and 100dpi font
Installed: Openssh, Openssl mdk-rpm
Window Manager: Gnome / Enlightenment.
What is the answer and is there a solution? Do I have a timing or hardware
conflict or a combination?
Thanks for the help,
Pj
