# 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 Mageia Installer and base platform for many utilitiesThierry Vignaud [tv]
