9/05/03 too many broken things, rolling back to 4/5/03
Hi;
I upgraded my hdd install from 4/5/03 to 9/05/03.
I noticed changes, not all for the better.
I uninstalled 9/05/03, did a clean reinstall just to check and then reinstalled 4/5/03.
I have new hardware. I bought my system in March 2003.
4/05/03 detected and configured all of my hardware perfectly without any effort from me.
9/05/03:
- didn't quite get my monitor (multisyncy lcd 1530v ) right. When I hit the
autoconfigure on the monitor the words became blurry and half of my
"screen" shot off to the right horizontally. 4/05/03 worked perfectly
with the autoconfigure.
- 4/05/03 all I had to do to get xine working was to dowload the dvd cracker
libs mentioned in the faq. No fuss, no muss. 9/05/03 set /dev/dvd to
"Knoppix/dev/dvd". It also could not detect my dvd player properly
running dmesg produced all sorts of errors. Trying to start xine made
it and the terminal hang.
- using XMMS to play a cd resulted in XMMS trying to play my radio
card instead. no such problem in 4/05/03.
- icewm 1.2.12 is BUGGY.
I don't want to complain for no reason.
If someone who has the power to change knoppix wants to work with me to figure out this apparent step backwards I will be glad to keep my system as it is for a few days to try to debug things so Knoppix can keep getting better with newer versions.
Thanks in advance
Steve
