This is changed when I ldconfig MDK-8.0, often resulting in errors since the compilation tries to use the headers from /usr/local/include with the lib from /usr/lib. The run-time is different from the compile-time! You are mixing both. I told you that standard system library search is always used first by the compiler/linker unless the user tells otherwise with extra -I (for includes) or -L (for libraries) flags. Then you have the run-time library search path which by default is also standard, thus in /lib or /usr/lib. But that's implicit, i.e. that doesn't appear in /etc/ld.so.conf. The order is indeed: LD_LIBRARY_PATH, candidates listed in the cache file /etc/ld.so.cache, then default for /lib and /usr/lib. If this is not the case please fill in a proper bug report for glibc. And programs should honour user defined paths before built-ins. Default behavior is system paths first, or user-defined paths *if* they tell so...

In addition, after using smp_affinity to make IRQ's route to both CPUs, mencoder performance didn't improve. For now, I'll see if I can get back the performance I need by recompiling from source here. However, it's still perturbing to see that by default IRQ's are not being routed to both processors when the APIC is enabled. Even if it's not the cause of this particular performance problem, it's still something that's changed for the worse. Perhaps we should open a bug just about that issue? Wes, I think that the Mplayer drop and APIC problem in smp kernel are separate problems. To answer your question, I agree with you, it would be better to open a new bug for the smp kernel to avoid confusion. Cheers Eric

Re: [Cooker] [Bug 3207] [MySQL-Max] New: conflict MySQL vsMySQL-Max only partially works

I am not certain, if this happens in an upgrade from ML 9.0, but you may want to check it out. In short, urpmi MySQL-Max [MySQL] only handles the conflict properly (i.e. suggesting uninstalling the MySQL package), after I upgraded to the newest MySQL package (MySQL-4.0.11a-4mdk). It looks that the installed RPM needs to have the conflict marker in order for it to be honored completely. This is only of interest for people who installed the -Max version of 3.23.x, which was supposed to have MySQL-Max installed alongside (more presicly: after) MySQL. From my observations (see below), I fear people having used MySQL-Max in this way, will run into the same conflict I had. But I am not sure about it and unfortunately don't have an v3.23 installation to test with. As this is a problem with the different packaging used before (also in ML9.0), it may be possible/probable that the problem will also happen for a full upgrade from 9.0 to 9.1, depending how similar the installer works to urpmi. With MySQL 4.0.11a-3mdk installed as this $ rpm -qa | grep -i mysql MySQL-client-4.0.11a-3mdk libmysql10-3.23.55-1mdk libmysql12-4.0.11a-3mdk MySQL-common-4.0.11a-3mdk MySQL-4.0.11a-3mdk php-mysql-4.3.0-2mdk I get the following: $ urpmi MySQL-Max MySQL To satisfy dependencies, the following packages are going to be installed (17 MB): MySQL-4.0.11a-4mdk.i586 MySQL-Max-4.0.11a-4mdk.i586 MySQL-common-4.0.11a-4mdk.i586 Is this OK?

As I said, the problem went away when I upgraded MySQL beforehand: Now I am asked that MySQL-Max resp. MySQL has to be removed in order to install the other packet. As I said, I am not sure how the installer will handle this, but I fear that it will try the equivalent of urpmi MySQL-Max MySQL. If you are sure that is no problem for a full install, feel free to close this bug as invalid, of course. Severity: minor, because only users of MySQL-Max are affected (and people seem to not install it that much). (And yes, I am aware that my environment is signicantly different from ML 9.0, but the package conflict should be the same. I would love if someone could test with the ML 9.0 packages.)

Re: [Cooker] URPMI in the spotlight, was: question on ftp sites
On Mon 10 Mar 2003 08:00, François Pons posted as excerpted below: This could be great indeed, any idea how to improve urpmi/rpmdrake is welcome as next version will be designed soon now. Something I've been wishing for.. If it's there, I haven't seen it in the man pages or documentation.. Some way to prioritize sources.. Thus, if my local mirror has the same thing as the sunet primary mirror, it wouldn't bother sunet, but would go for the local one, but would still be able to get the latest from sunet when there's a difference. A somewhat related request.. It doesn't LOOK like it's doing this now, but maybe it does.. If several sources are available for an item, according to the latest hdlst.cz, and one fails, try the others. I've had errors where it was gone from one, apparently the one urpmi tried first, but still available on another, only urpmi wouldn't fetch it from there. I either had to disable the first source, or go fetch it manually (which is how I knew it to be available on the second source anyway). Talking about disabling.. AFAIK, the only way to do that is thru the GUI interface. If there's a command line way to do it, I'd like to know it. I suppose I could create a script that renamed the files so urpmi skipped that, but I'd THINK there'd already be a way to do it, since the GUI can. Am I missing something? Also nice would be.. Some way to tell it if app.x.y.z doesn't exist, automatically try app.x.y.z-Amdk doesn't exist, try -(A+1)mdk instead. IOW, it would do the same thing that urpmi already does to figure out which of several versions is the newest, but if the hdlist.cz file was outdated, it would automatically try the next logical release stepping instead, as well as the usual output about needing to run .update. It's a bit arguable as to whether it should extend beyond the mdk release number, say, to the .z above, but at least the mdk releases are usually fairly limited in scope, so having at least that as an option would be helpful. (The idea is an option like --allow-force, for those that want it, not default behavior, for those that prefer a more conservative approach.) And, possibly all in the documentation department.. More info on parallel would be useful. For instance, I have just a single computer, but a 3Mbps d/l cable modem connection. It's frustrating sitting there watching an overloaded server attempt to service my urpmi.update -a, at a mere 100KB/sec, when the connection can do 3 times that, and when I know there are several other servers to be updated after that. Could I somehow use parallel to initiate a second session and .update a second server at the same time? If so, instructions would be nice. If not, that ability would be very nice in the next version. Something tells me that's why parallel is there, altho one gets the impression that was designed to work on physically separate hosts. The existing man documentation is pretty good on detail, but it doesn't seem to say much about parallel. I've only the rather sparse changelog mentions to go on. -- Duncan They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. -- Benjamin Franklin

Re: [Cooker] Kudos in order
Yeah, it looks great. It fixes a UI problem with the way colors were used on the add/subtract packages rpmdrakes, too. Saved me (and the maintainers) a LATER bug report. I believe that all the new icons (menus, mcc) and the Galaxy theme are the work of Everaldo Coelho (creator of KDE's Crystal theme) with Helene Durosini (credited designer in the mcc dialog box). See this article in OfB: http://www.ofb.biz/modules.php?name=Newsfile=articlesid=190 (note that Everaldo mentioned MDK 10, but I think he meant the next version, meaning 9.1). This brings up a question: will his name be added in mcc's credits dialog box? If indeed he contributed, this credit would be very nice to see. Overall the icons are wonderful. There's a more childlike quality to their color and form, while retaining a professional look. Their legibility is vastly improved.

It is quit important for a notebook and i think that this mandrake version was supposed to be a easier one for notebook : zeroconf, switchprofiles...and apci is one of the main new features, so can't there be a special kernel for the buggy bios ? PLEEEAASE !! I believe I'd have to second that since I have a Presario 700E notebook that has exactly this problem. Before now I've been having to use SuSE on it, but if I can use Mandrake with out difficulties, I'd prefer that. About compiling a kernel, getting the kernel-source rpm, editing the config file and using rpm --rebuild should be ok, shouldn't it ? While talking about the kernel, isn't there anymore the kernel-header package ?? That means we have to download all sources just to compil an new driver (NVIDIA for ex) ??? And isn't it possible to use noapic apci=on on boot instead of recompiling ?

This causes the machine to lock up on boot with the default kernel. It is possible to boot the default kernel with the switch acpi=off added at boot time, but then power management is not available. (So the fan will go 100% all the time, etc.). It is therefore necessary to recompile the kernel without APIC (yes: without APIC, and with ACPI (they conflict) and ACPI is what is necessary for power management) to get power management features. See the following for a detailed how-to for getting everything working: http://individual.utoronto.ca/noyes/projects/laptop/tuxtop.html I've seen the last -13mdk kernel says apic is disabled on more motherboard - going to update from RC2 to this last kernel and tell if that work. GREAT ! that is now working ! at least, i see the percentage of charge, if i'm on battery or not in kde !! Thanks to J. Quintela for this new update !!! Now, how to test suspend/hibernation etc modes ? it asks me for commands... thanks to all. Exactly what model presario do you have? Because in the latest kernel there is an exclude for local apic set on the following Presario: { local_apic_kills_bios, Compaq Pressario 711EA, { MATCH(DMI_SYS_VENDOR, Compaq), MATCH(DMI_PRODUCT_NAME, Presario 711EA 470030-327), MATCH(DMI_BOARD_VENDOR, Compaq), MATCH(DMI_BOARD_NAME, 0760h), NO_MATCH } }, So yours would have to be a 711EA, since mine (732US) does not work. (Don't be fooled by the Presario 700 listed just below the screen on the laptop)? Is there some way to find this out on linux (ie. without comparing the components on some online shop? dmiscan? but how?) Best, Sascha Noyes Right, my notebook IS a 711EA (french model with a 950Mhz Duron CPU, i believe). To know which model you have, just look at at the back of your notebook !!! Perhaps dmiscan does give the info, but it seems easier to look at the ref written on the product, doesn't it ? I don't want to make you cry, but now my notebook power down alone too, and get silent when he has no activity for some minutes...sorry, but i'm so happy i can't resist to tell it ;-))) Hope the problem will get solved for you too anyway :) I'll take a look at dmiscan tomorrow morning, now it's too late for my poor eyes. little stupid question : what is the problem with disabling apic support ? I've seen it's about time CPU synchro (orsomething like that) but what is the drawback of not enabling it ? And what is the link with acpi Of course, I always miss the most obvious things (bottom of laptop). Thomas, my laptop states (on the bottom forDMI_PRODUCT_NAME) Presario 732US 470033-480 Is this enough to go on or is DMI_BOARD_NAME also needed?

I remember compiling an mpc-plugin for xmms a while ago with -O2 -march=i586 and it sounded horrible. Removing the -march resolved the issue.

I am not certain, if this happens in an upgrade from ML 9.0, but you may want to check it out. In short, urpmi MySQL-Max [MySQL] only handles the conflict properly (i.e. suggesting uninstalling the MySQL package), after I upgraded to the newest MySQL package (MySQL-4.0.11a-4mdk). It looks that the installed RPM needs to have the conflict marker in order for it to be honored completely. This is only of interest for people who installed the -Max version of 3.23.x, which was supposed to have MySQL-Max installed alongside (more presicly: after) MySQL. From my observations (see below), I fear people having used MySQL-Max in this way, will run into the same conflict I had. But I am not sure about it and unfortunately don't have an v3.23 installation to test with. As this is a problem with the different packaging used before (also in ML9.0), it may be possible/probable that the problem will also happen for a full upgrade from 9.0 to 9.1, depending how similar the installer works to urpmi. With MySQL 4.0.11a-3mdk installed as this $ rpm -qa | grep -i mysql MySQL-client-4.0.11a-3mdk libmysql10-3.23.55-1mdk libmysql12-4.0.11a-3mdk MySQL-common-4.0.11a-3mdk MySQL-4.0.11a-3mdk php-mysql-4.3.0-2mdk I get the following: $ urpmi MySQL-Max MySQL To satisfy dependencies, the following packages are going to be installed (17 MB): MySQL-4.0.11a-4mdk.i586 MySQL-Max-4.0.11a-4mdk.i586 MySQL-common-4.0.11a-4mdk.i586 Is this OK?

As I said, the problem went away when I upgraded MySQL beforehand: Now I am asked that MySQL-Max resp. MySQL has to be removed in order to install the other packet. As I said, I am not sure how the installer will handle this, but I fear that it will try the equivalent of urpmi MySQL-Max MySQL. If you are sure that is no problem for a full install, feel free to close this bug as invalid, of course. Severity: minor, because only users of MySQL-Max are affected (and people seem to not install it that much).

Sorry, but I think pound is a bad choice, seeing as some keyboards have this funny L-shaped character where you americans put this funny S with a vertical line through it ... that would be a Pound sign. Hash is less ambigous. Which is why I would refer to #! as hash-bang ;-).

Since US residents don't have the Livre (pound Sterling) as currency, it's perfectly normal for them to say pound for the symbol. Ambiguity is in the eye of the beholder; I'm sure you'd get a blank stare the first time you talked to a non-techie in the US about the hash key. Personally, I like some of the variations in the Register articles. Variety is the spice of life.

Re: [Cooker] URPMI in the spotlight, was: question on ftp sites
Duncan [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: On Mon 10 Mar 2003 08:00, François Pons posted as excerpted below: This could be great indeed, any idea how to improve urpmi/rpmdrake is welcome as next version will be designed soon now. Something I've been wishing for.. If it's there, I haven't seen it in the man pages or documentation.. Some way to prioritize sources.. Thus, if my local mirror has the same thing as the sunet primary mirror, it wouldn't bother sunet, but would go for the local one, but would still be able to get the latest from sunet when there's a difference. The sources are taken in order. In 9.2 the sources editor will have the feature of graphically changing order. Now, you may do so by changing order of `/etc/urpmi/urpmi.cfg'. A somewhat related request.. It doesn't LOOK like it's doing this now, but maybe it does.. If several sources are available for an item, according to the latest hdlst.cz, and one fails, try the others. I've had errors where it was gone from one, apparently the one urpmi tried first, but still available on another, only urpmi wouldn't fetch it from there. I either had to disable the first source, or go fetch it manually (which is how I knew it to be available on the second source anyway). I think this is available (or soon will be) with urpmi. But this is gonna be hard for rpmdrake since the installer/downloader is grpmi, which doesn't know anything about dependencies (it only installs/downloads). Some way to tell it if app.x.y.z doesn't exist, automatically try app.x.y.z-Amdk doesn't exist, try -(A+1)mdk instead. IOW, it would do the same thing that urpmi already does to figure out which of several versions is the newest, but if the hdlist.cz file was outdated, it would automatically try the next logical release stepping instead, as well as the usual output about needing to run .update. It's a bit arguable as to whether it should extend beyond the mdk release number, say, to the .z above, but at least the mdk releases are usually fairly limited in scope, so having at least that as an option would be helpful. (The idea is an option like --allow-force, for those that want it, not default behavior, for those that prefer a more conservative approach.) This wouldn't be safe since a new release may have different dependencies. -- Guillaume Cottenceau - http://people.mandrakesoft.com/~gc/

With GIMP 1.2.3, I opened a new file, chose the text tool, and the CONGA font. I then added text to the GIMP Text Tool preview box. Within the preview box, the typed text appears correctly using some even point sizes. Using some odd point sizes (9, 11 and 13), the text is illegible. After entering the text to the GIMP Image Box, the text is now distorted, and is different from the text in the preview box. The same result occurs using the Conga font with StarOffice 5.2, except, when choosing point sizes 6,7,9 with the Conga font. Choosing font sizes 8, 10, 11, 12 14, 16, 18, and all larger sizes within StarOffice 5.2 using the Conga font produces illegible results. However, if I print the document from StarOffice, using the illegible Conga font, the resulting printed document contains the words initially typed. Here is a sample.

[Cooker] [Bug 3207] [MySQL-Max] conflict MySQL vs MySQL-Max only partially works
http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=3207 --- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-03-12 11:48 --- Funny, I wondered if I should consider that an urpmi problem. Anyhow the versions I am using: $ rpm -q urpmi perl-URPM rpmtools urpmi-4.2-30mdk perl-URPM-0.81-12mdk rpmtools-4.5-9mdk Let me know, if you need anything else. --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. --- Reminder: --- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: RESOLVED creation_date: description: I just had some problem installing MySQL-Max due to the new conflict to MySQL 4.0.11. I am not certain, if this happens in an upgrade from ML 9.0, but you may want to check it out. In short, urpmi MySQL-Max [MySQL] only handles the conflict properly (i.e. suggesting uninstalling the MySQL package), after I upgraded to the newest MySQL package (MySQL-4.0.11a-4mdk). It looks that the installed RPM needs to have the conflict marker in order for it to be honored completely. This is only of interest for people who installed the -Max version of 3.23.x, which was supposed to have MySQL-Max installed alongside (more presicly: after) MySQL. From my observations (see below), I fear people having used MySQL-Max in this way, will run into the same conflict I had. But I am not sure about it and unfortunately don't have an v3.23 installation to test with. As this is a problem with the different packaging used before (also in ML9.0), it may be possible/probable that the problem will also happen for a full upgrade from 9.0 to 9.1, depending how similar the installer works to urpmi. With MySQL 4.0.11a-3mdk installed as this $ rpm -qa | grep -i mysql MySQL-client-4.0.11a-3mdk libmysql10-3.23.55-1mdk libmysql12-4.0.11a-3mdk MySQL-common-4.0.11a-3mdk MySQL-4.0.11a-3mdk php-mysql-4.3.0-2mdk I get the following: $ urpmi MySQL-Max MySQL To satisfy dependencies, the following packages are going to be installed (17 MB): MySQL-4.0.11a-4mdk.i586 MySQL-Max-4.0.11a-4mdk.i586 MySQL-common-4.0.11a-4mdk.i586 Is this OK?

As I said, the problem went away when I upgraded MySQL beforehand: Now I am asked that MySQL-Max resp. MySQL has to be removed in order to install the other packet. As I said, I am not sure how the installer will handle this, but I fear that it will try the equivalent of urpmi MySQL-Max MySQL. If you are sure that is no problem for a full install, feel free to close this bug as invalid, of course. Severity: minor, because only users of MySQL-Max are affected (and people seem to not install it that much). (And yes, I am aware that my environment is signicantly different from ML 9.0, but the package conflict should be the same. I would love if someone could test with the ML 9.0 packages.)

Whatever the technical term whenever i use logdrake cpu usage goes from around 15 to 99-100 %. The first time it happened i'd selected logdrake from mcc, checked the syslog box and the show only for selected day box (which was today) and then hit search. IMMEDIATELY cpu usage went up to 100% and the only thing I could do was move the mouse sporadically. during this sporadic mouse movement i had click on the menu's K icon and had move the gkrellm window to somewhere else. After about 5 minutes (yeah I waited that long) The search in logdrake finished, the gkrellm window AND the kicker died. The logdrake window must have died too (as opposed to finishing) because no results were given, it just went back to the System tab of MCC. This was done in embedded mode. Oh yeah I also had a konqueror window open as well. Then I tried to reproduce this: i restarted kicker and gkrellm using the Alt+F2 run dialog. clicked on logdrake again in mcc chose the same seettings (syslog and show only for selected day boxes) and then hit search again. Same thing happened but this time it was worse. Around the five minute mark all signs of activity stopped and I couldn't move the mouse for about thirty seconds, then i could move the mouse again. I decided to let it go further and see if it would stop (segfault?) like it did the last time. No such luck. It kept going for another five minutes (total of ten) eating up cpu usage and I decided to restart X. That in and of itself was an ordeal. It took forever (probably a minute) for the Nvidia logo to pop-up and then kdm was STILL trying to restart. So then I did Ctrl+Alt+F1 and went to the console (which looked weird too, it was like a tiled wallpaper across the top with a black screen below) and di a Ctrl+Alt+Del to reboot. If you try to reproduce this be prepared. Oh yeah this was an on upgrade to my regular system (9.0 -- 9.1 RC2+cooker updates) Specs: athlon xp 2000+ ecs mobo gf 4 ti4200-8x 256 mb sdram p.s. this is a dupe of Bug#: 2161 but I couldn't confirm or change severity and crap like that so I made this one wis way better description.

[Cooker] [Bug 3159] [ld.so1] Built in paths precede /etc/ld.so.conf
http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=3159 --- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-03-12 12:01 --- I'm sorry if I'm being annoying or not getting the point but AFAIK: During run-time the program should check LD_LIBRARY_PATH, /etc/ld.so.cache and default libs. 'ldconfig' is used to update the cache using LD_LIBRARY_PATH, /etc/ld.so.conf and default libs as the search order. 'ldconfig -p' shows what's in the cache and in what order the libraries are referenced, so if /usr/lib/libmylib.so comes before /usr/local/lib/libmylib.so the former is used at runtime. When I run 'ldconfig -p | grep libfreetype' I get (in order) libfreetype.so (libc6) = /usr/lib/libfreetype.so.6 libfreetype.so (libc6) = /usr/local/lib/libfreetype.so.6 and 'ldd /opt/xfce4_cvs26feb/bin/xfwm4 | grep freetype' gives libfreetype.so.6 = /usr/lib/libfreetype.so.6 So even though my ld.so.conf has /usr/local/lib first ldconfig and the linker ignores it and chooses the default lib instead. I think that's a bug and if you think it's glibc's fault please tell me and I'll start bugging (pun intended) those guys. Oh, and I think the compiler (or autoconf or whatever) should adhere to the same standards, but perhaps that's another issue.

[Cooker] [Bug 2829] [tmdns] 9.1RC2: DNS for .local and tmdns
http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2829 --- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-03-12 12:05 --- Finally got your patch installed. A few minor things as well as some on the addition files in the SRPM would need to be changed in order for it to work after an RPM install. Unfortunately, changing to .localdomain is probably not a good idea. Further research on this, http://www.ietf.org/proceedings/00dec/I-D/draft-ietf-dnsext- mdns-00.txt, shows that .local is the proposed extension for Multicast (notice how M$ is on the list here - most likely explains the Active Directory setups). It would probably be best NOT to install tmdns during installation as a default. For business users, most would already have nameservers so this could be a potential problem. For home users, this service may be useful in a small home network, but it would be easier for them to just install the additional service rather than for a business trying to maintain a large number of machines having to deal with this issue on a much larger scale. Just my 2 cents --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. --- Reminder: --- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: NEW creation_date: description: I'm very late on this report, but I've been trying to get it fixed to no avail. I have two boxes, one running 9.0, the other 9.1RC2. Both get an IP address allocated via DHCP and both are on the same network. However, for the 9.1 box it cannot seem to resolve hostnames correctly, forcing you to specify IP addresses in your applications. (Resolving doesn't seem to be working correctly) In both the machines, /etc/resolv.conf looks as follows. (Automagically configured from DHCP) /etc/resolv.conf: nameserver 10.1.1.16 nameserver 10.1.1.10 search af.didata.local Now on the 9.0 box I do a ping (ping terminal.af.didata.local) to a Windows terminal server and it works correctly: [EMAIL PROTECTED] jaco]$ ping terminal.af.didata.local PING terminal.af.didata.local (10.1.0.240) from 10.1.35.66 : 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from terminal.af.didata.local (10.1.0.240): icmp_seq=1 ttl=125 time=0.360 ms ... [EMAIL PROTECTED] jaco]$ From the 9.1 box I get the following: [EMAIL PROTECTED] jaco]$ ping terminal.af.didata.local ping: unknown host terminal.af.didata.local [EMAIL PROTECTED] jaco]$ Ok, but networking is up and running: [EMAIL PROTECTED] jaco]$ ping 10.1.0.240 PING terminal.af.didata.local (10.1.0.240) from 10.1.35.66 : 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 10.1.0.240: icmp_seq=1 ttl=125 time=0.374 ms ... [EMAIL PROTECTED] jaco]$ In other news, doing a ping terminal on the 9.0 box works, on the 9.1 box not. However, doing a nslookup on terminal on both boxes results in the following: [EMAIL PROTECTED] jaco]$ nslookup terminal ... Name: terminal.af.didata.local Address: 10.1.0.240 [EMAIL PROTECTED] jaco]$ Which means that at least that part works. I'm stumped. Any ssh, telnet, rdesktop, etc. to any hostname (with or without the af.didata.local domain) doesn't work. Doing an nslookup and using that IP to connect to, does. The 9.1 machine was upgraded from a working 9.0 box to 9.1RC1 which broke the addresseing. RC2 has not addressed this problem. In addition in 9.1 /etc/hosts still does not contain 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost, instead only 127.0.0.1 localhost which breaks some applications. (eg. Eclipse debugger, not part of main but in full use here) On new bootups the DHCP configuration seems to change it back to localhost again, forcing you to make the change manually to get your applications to work.

[Cooker] [Bug 3159] [ld.so1] Built in paths precede /etc/ld.so.conf
http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=3159 --- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-03-12 12:26 --- Honestly I don't understand why problems with ld.so.conf (whether can't prepend or not the default lib paths to /lib /usr/lib is related to this package)? This package provides a backward compatible loader with ld-linux.so.1, for programs still needing a version 1 loader and substantially for libc 5.3.12 based programs. For instance if you want to get old wordperfect 8 running in 9.1, you have to install ld.so1 as well as libc-base-5.3.12 and libc-extras-5.3.12 provided in contrib (libc-base/extras will append /usr/i486-linux-libc5-lib to ld.so.conf). All the programs in the distributions uses the linux loader /lib/ld-linux.so.2 which is not part of this ld.so1 package, but of glibc package. Furthermore for old programs needed a version 1 loader, the loader /lib/ld-linux.so.1.9.1 should still honour the old ld.so.conf behaviour. --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. --- Reminder: --- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: RESOLVED creation_date: description: Somewhere between MDK 7.0 and 8.2 ldconfig changed behaviour to list /lib and /usr/lib before the self specified paths in /etc/ld.so.conf.

I expect the last ALSA update broke it (it used to work fine). The card uses the snd-ens1371 driver. Any program which attempts to output to ALSA natively freezes as soon as it attempts to play sound, and cannot be exited normally, even ctrl-c fails to work - has to be 'kill'ed. This has been verified with xmms in ALSA mode (using the xmms-alsa plugin), totem, xine with the ALSA plugin, and ogg123 (which attempts to output in ALSA mode by default). However, sound works with the ALSA driver if its OSS emulation is used - i.e., I can get sound perfectly well with any program set to output in OSS mode, using the ALSA driver. None of the programs I checked gave any error output, they just froze. This is quite a popular legacy card. Can't find anything in the ALSA mailing lists about this.
