Bugs/5.01CD

2006-08-08T06:34:14Z

Rol:

1) The ext2 persistent home bug (ext2 partitions not recognized properly)
is still not fixed in 5.01, because of a a typo in the knoppix-autoconfig file:
wrong: ext3|ext3|reiserfs|xfs) MOUNTOPTS="$MOUNTOPTS,noatime" ;;
correct: ext2|ext3|reiserfs|xfs) MOUNTOPTS="$MOUNTOPTS,noatime" ;;
Please find a diff in here:
http://s94002264.onlinehome.us/grub/knoppix-autoconfig.diff
BTW, I found a work around fix, cf:
http://www.knoppix.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=103883#103883

2)knoppix splash cheatcode doesn't work, it worked with 4.0.2 version.

3)difficulty to boot on some (recent) laptop: needs to use noudev and sometimes
nompcmcia to start, but Konsole failed start, complain that no tty are available.

4)boot process is horribly slow if a pci card with rt2500 WLAN chipset is plugged
and failed on DHCP request, no problem on Cebit 5.0: card is well recognise.

5)printing impossible (report from forums.knoppix-fr.org)

6)module compilation is not possible (out of the box), have to have a look deeply
(maybe problem with header or some links to them)
Some more info: This is probably related with the Debian [http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=368544 bug #368544] as the parts missing
in the headers are those supposed to be in a newcomer linux-kbuild package

7)[INSTALL] mount with removable media,
"Please change the -u knoppix and -g knoppix in
/etc/udev/knoppix.rules, either to match the "primary user", or just
remove them."

8) CD-Burning with an external USB device is broken.
as i posted in the forum http://www.knoppix.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=24784
there are some messages from cdrecord in the k3b failure report
about missing entrys in /dev one of them about /dev/sg0 ...
i looked for what was there in 4.0.2CD and found this:
<code>

</code>
after creating /dev/sg0 with mknod ( using mknod without beeing absolutely sure
what you are doing can lead to deleting all your data on harddisk or even worse )
at least k3b simulation started working ...
i will do a real burning test later ...

9) ipw2200 v1.1.1 (the one in kernel 2.6.17) relies on firmware 3.0 while
the Knoppix package ipw2200-nonfree only contain older firmwares.
Please update ipw2200-nonfree, cf
http://ipw2200.sourceforge.net/firmware.php

10) Setting the timezone does not work. KDE's time applet requires the root
password (should probably use ksudo instead).
Workaround: sudo vi /etc/timezone,
sudo cp /usr/share/zoneinfo/Continent/City /etc/zoneinfo.

11) Mounting of a PCMCIA flash drive works only once. After remove/insert of the card,
the following error message appears: "mount:Gerätedatei /dev/hde1 existiert nicht" (rol).
