-# This file contains all the bugs/glitches/inconsistencies shipped in
-# 9.0 (Dolphin) Mandrake Linux Release.
-
-# Feel free to add your entry and if possible the fixes and status of
-# the errata.
-
- o Drakxtools:
- ==========
-
- widget libraries:
-
- In both XFdrake and printerdrake pop up small, empty, gray windows when
- clicking in the main menu. STATUS: Not fixed.
-
- Scroll bars and widget sizes often not correct (visible primarily in the
- printer options step of the "Add printer" wizard of printerdrake. STATUS:
- Not fixed.
-
- harddrake:
-
- logdrake:
- IS: Send the alert mail when service is stopped but the mail
- is empty.
- SHOULD BE: incorporate a text on which service is stopped.
- Status: not fixed.
-
- o Drakconf:
- =========
- IS: locale nl_NL, sl and zh_CN prevent drakconf from starting with
- a "cannot call set_active on undefined values" error.
-
- SHOULD BE: work well in all locales.
-
- a workaround has been comitted
-
- o Drakfont:
- =========
-
- drakfont get stopped in stat64("/mnt/nt/winnt/fonts/8514oem.fon",
- ...) on ntfs partitions.
- there's a bug in ntfs.o fs module of the kernel
-
- o Install:
- ========
-
- o urpmi:
- ======
-
- "urpmi mplayer" shows a list of libraries it needs and asks whether
- to install all this, after saying "y", it says that all these
- packages are missing and fails (I have shown it to François and he
- says that is a bug with the "contribs". He had to regenerate the
- hdlists somehow. STATUS: Not fixed.
-
- o XFree 4.2.x:
- ============
-
- Touchpad mouse on my Asus S8600 notebook. Worked out-of-the-box
- with Mandrake 8.2, but in 9.0 I cannot do any dragging operation
- with the PS/2-"Standard" mouse setting. I switched to "Glidepoint"
- with mousedrake and then dragging works, but the emulation of the
- third button by pressing both buttons not. Adding the lines
-
- Option "Emulate3Buttons"
- Option "Emulate3Timeout" "50"
-
- to the mouse section of /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 manually fixes the
- middle-button problem. STATUS: Not fixed.
-
-
-
- Sometimes, XFree86 can cause sound glitches because of intensive
- pci bus usage.
- Adding the line
-
- Option "PciRetry" "true"
-
- to the "Device" section /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 fixes these boxes.
-
-
- I810 driver is bogus: when Xrender extension is in use (antialiased
- fonts), X11 may crash upon vt switch.
- is fixed in devel branch of cvs
-
-
- o Printer drivers:
- ================
-
- "Best Grayscale" mode of HP DeskJet 6xx and Apollo printers does
- not work. STATUS: Fixed on linuxprinting.org, needs to be packaged
- in "printer-drivers".
-
-o kernel:
- =======
-
- Sometimes reboot stops on "illegal seek" message (having /usr on /
- fs fix it)
-
- Sometimes process get blocked in D-state on ntfs partitions (see
- drakfont)
-
- i810_audio mistakely say to modules.pm through modules.*map it
- handles nforces whereas it lacks some workaround nvidia and alsa
- uses.
- workaround: perl-install/patch/patch-nforce.pl
-
- snd-via686 is said to produce background noise since alsa-0.9.0rc3
- workaround: switch to via82cxxx_audio (oss driver) through draksound
