	* Xconfigurator.pm: load "Cards" database only to translate NAME

	standalone/drakxservices

2000-02-18  Pixel  <pixel@mandrakesoft.com>

	"/dev/psaux" and not "psaux")

	number given by HDIO_GETGEO cuz limited to 16bits. Compute using
	the total_sectors using HDIO_GET_IDENTITY

	* c/stuff.xs.pm: added total_sectors (gives the number of sector
	of a drive)

	* modules.pm (load): ignore error in loading prereq's

	partition table, address size limit and start sector limit.

2000-02-11  Pixel  <pixel@mandrakesoft.com>

	* install2.pm (main): add a callback on SEGV
	-> message printed
	-> that way, ENDs are called (otherwise skipped)

	value returned by load_thiskind

	add a $auto_probe_pci that overrules $o->{auto_probe_pci}
	(that way no pci probe the second time)

2000-02-10  François Pons  <fpons@mandrakesoft.com>

	* heavy modification of build_archive and extract_archive to manage
	a TOC directly in archive file, handle bzip2 or gzip compression,
	extract_archive can extract multiple files a time, with minimal
	invocation of uncompress program and follow symlink and expand
	directory contents.
	* use build_archive/extract_archive for locales.
	* fixed a min/max in install_steps_gtk for Resize/Create partition.
	* fixed adjustEnd with dos partition table, take care of magic 63
	sectors at beginning of partitions, a more solid method should be
	used for that.

	purpose: add ability to configure both modem and lan
	         clean up the behaviour
