Hi ! I have installed 9.2 PP d/L on a friends machine and got some massive problems. He is now running 9.1 again, but i thought it might be worth to share experiences.
a) totem crashed immediatly but was standard app for playing mp3's. I don't know why it crashed, does it run stable for anyone ? b) multiple lun: After adding the dvd-reader to ide-scsi, the machine got 7 readers and 7 burners = scd0 - scd13. According to him "options scsi_mod scsi_man_luns=1" in etc/modules.conf didn't helped. The reader is a toshiba, the burner a teac 512eb. c) acpi/powersaving: after a while w/o working on that machine suspend of the machine kicked in. Moving the mouse or pressing some keys didn't get it back, trying to reset didn't work either, trying the powerswitch, didn't work, unplug the power cord didn't work. Only resetting the board completly brought it back till the next suspend. In lilo.conf is acpi=ht (what does this mean ?). Its a MSI kt266 board with Athlon TB 1333. d) k3b 0.9 crashed immediatly (maybe because of the lot drives ?) 0.10.99 aka cvs started but hung on burning and took the Xserver with it. e) sound: He has an soundblaster soundcard. The default OSS driver didn't work really good (crappy sound) , switching it to alsa did help a lot here Hmmm i would cover this experiment as failed :( .... 9.1 works flawless for him compared to this. The LG issue i haven't mentiones, we changed the drive for testing and later updating. Steffen
