Glpi s'installe sans probléme. Pour ocsng j'ai suivi la documentation mais plusieurs problémes se présentent à moi.. Apparemment je dois installer le package perl-Apache-DBI et php-zip mais la console me répond « pas de package nomé untel ou untel » Ne pouvant installer ceux-la j'ai continué la procédure sans probléme mais lors du lancement de ocsng j'ai un warning me conseillant d'installer php-zip. Donc ma question est : ou puis-je trouver ces packages s'ils éxistent ? ou alors est-ce un défaut de ma mandriva ? Enfin j'aimerais connaître la différence entre l'installation cd et l'installation dvd ? J'espére avoir été assez clair dans mes propos. En vous souhaitant une bonne journée. Cordialement.

Re: [newbie] File missing from openssl package: /usr/lib/ssl/misc/CA.sh [Hacked Around]

Or an openssl change that hasn't been reflected in the partimage package? Am I back to building from source again? Should I log a bug, or am I doing something wrong? Shocky Hi Shocky, I had the same errors out of the box, so I would check bugzilla and see if there is one already or file a bug for this. Also add what you did to fix it, whether its upstream or not. Yeah, I'll put that on my to do list, to report the bugs. It turned out that getting partimaged to start was only the beginning of my journey. To make a very long story slightly shorter, the partimage client and partimaged server have to be exactly the same version, and be compiled with the same login and ssl settings - you can't select at run-time whether to require, allow or disallow logins, they are either required or not allowed, and this is selected at compile time. The ssl part also seems to be broken. But to be fair to the partimage team, they clearly state that this is alpha software, especially the network support. The partimage on the system rescue cd is version 0.6.4, compiled with login and ssl disabled. Since I can't change this, this is what I have to work with. The package from Mandriva is also 0.6.4, but is compiled with login and ssl enabled, so there is no way to make these work together. The latest stable version of partimage available as source is 0.6.5, which also won't work with the system rescue cd, regardless of the compile options, because of the version mismatch. Finally, on sourceforge I was able to find source for 0.6.4, configure it as follows: ./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-login --disable-ssl And start up a partimaged server that the system rescue cd partimage client can connect to. I also had to open up tcp port 4025 on shorewall to allow them to connect. With ssl disabled, all that stuff with broken/missing ssl scripts goes away. Of course, they warn you that disabling ssl opens up a big security hole, so only do it on a trusted network. But I don't plan on running image backups over the internet anyway, and those ports are still safely closed on my main ipcop firewall (yes, I'm paranoid). So finally, very late last night, I got it to work. Woohoo! If anyone wants it, I have the rpm built by checkinstall. -- These are my opinions. Get your own.

If you go from a high ogg bitrate to a high MP3 bitrate, the degradation will be minor--at worst. But at low bitrates, the difference will be more pronounced.

So you were correct to install that version and you are basically headed in the right direction. However...when the ATI installer goes over an Xorg file that has been previously edited by the ATI installer, things can go wrong. Most times I have seen the xorg.conf file get hosed. That's one thing that's still wrong with the factory drivers, which is that the xorg.conf file gets foobared with more than one subsequent ATI driver install/edit. What I would suggest is for you to edit your xorg.conf file back to a working vesa configuration, and get your gui back up. For example, starting with an xorg.conf from a Live cd boot from your Mandriva distro would be a nice clean start. (save the live-cd generated version of the xorg.conf to your working distro install on the hard drive; /etc/X11.) Because a functional vanilla xorg.conf works best for this, using the vesa driver. After you get that, and verify that X is up and everything works, from a root console do aticonfig --initial which will edit your working xorg.conf to insert the lines needed to bring fglrx up and running. Restart X with a ctrl-alt-backspace or a complete reboot and see what happens.

In 2007.0 the the Radeon 9xxx series card can have 3d hw accel using xorg/Mesa driver/drm module. It is what I use here. Charles Thanks, will try this, but still wonders why it's so damn difficult to get the Ati/fglrx to work. The newest drivers actually work ok, but the installer has flaws in dealing with xorg.conf edits. Also, if you have used the sh ./ati-driver-installer-8.33.6-x86.x86_64.run GUI-style approach instead of generating the RPM's and installing them, then you MUST run the uninstaller script supplied with that method before the RPM installs will work. Correction; before the RPM's are installed. If you have installed the RPM's over the top of the ati-driver-installer GUI install, then you need to remove the RPM's and then run the uninstall script that is installed with the GUI install. After you run the uninstall script, you can then generate the rpm's with the ATI installer for Mandriva (if you haven't already) and put them in manually with rpm. Before you use rpm to install them however, it is important to have a blank functional vesa type xorg.conf file waiting, one that has not been previously edited by an ATI install. Vanilla, in other words. Because the RPM install automatically edits the xorg.conf file, and it doesn't understand it's own editing, so it will hose a previously ATI-edited xorg.conf.
