− | List V3.9 2005-05-27 bugs here
| + | {{delete|outdated}} [[User:WPSchulz|WPSchulz]] ([[User talk:WPSchulz|talk]]) 19:13, 11 April 2016 (EDT) |
− | | + | |
− | 1.) It seems that [http://www.knoppix.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=85330#85330 v3.9's UnionFS has broken Debian package management]. To reproduce the bug: Boot Knoppix V3.9, download a package & install it.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | wget http://debian.mirrors.pair.com/pool/main/a/aterm/aterm_0.4.2-11_i386.deb
| + | |
− | sudo dpkg -i aterm_0.4.2-11_i386.deb
| + | |
− | --[[User:UnderScore|UnderScore]] 20:02, 3 Jun 2005 (GMT)
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | Confirmed. Note that apt-get update; apt-get upgrade gets partially through an install before freezing, not all packages trigger this bug.
| + | |
− | | + | |

| + | |
− | | + | |
− | This seems to be related to the unionfs snapshot from 26.5.05, and links in the menu structure when calling "update-menus". The latest snapshot still has this bug. Until there is a solution for this, we are reverting to unionfs 1.0.11. --[[User:KlausKnopper|KlausKnopper]] Sun Jun 12 23:41:14 CEST 2005

− | V3.9 2005-05-27 freezes also on:
| + | |
− | apt-get install postgresql
| + | |
− | but it works if unstable release of PostgreSQL is used on V3.9. It worked on 3.8 as we tested a "on the fly" installation for http://xdash.jabberstudio.org (thought on 3.8, after several apt-get install xxx calls, apt-get hanged up in the state: uninterruptable sleep -> going back to the older snapshot of UnionFS is probabaly not the best solution...)

− | 2.) The "ub" kernel module is still compiled into the kernel. This prevents Knoppix from booting on USB CD/DVD-ROMs. <a href="http://linux.usc.edu/pipermail/usclug-chat/2004-December/000111.html">This has been known since Linux 2.6.9</a>. --[[User:PopeFelix|PopeFelix]] 16:29, 4 Jun 2005 (GMT)
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | Actually, this isn't the case. Knoppix 3.9 seems to boot well on all USB DVD-Writers, CD-Roms etc. On which external USB drive did that problem occur? --[[User:KlausKnopper|KlausKnopper]] Sun Jun 12 23:41:14 CEST 2005
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | 3.) Please config out CONFIG_BLK_DEV_UB (the ub driver). This driver has the bizzare side effect of stopping the usb-storage driver from ever seeing a USB device, irrespective of whether the ub module is loaded or not. As PopeFelix noted, this stops knoppix being able to use USB CD/DVD drives. One reason I have switched to kanotix is that absence of the ub driver.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | Also, this seems to work here: ub for USB flash memory and usb-storage for writers. --[[User:KlausKnopper|KlausKnopper]] Sun Jun 12 23:41:14 CEST 2005
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | 4.) Please use the "ati" driver for ATI Radeon 7000 based video cards. Mine was detected properly, but the generic "vesa" driver was loaded, so no 3D for me!!

− | 5.) When I try to go to the System Configuration menu item under Quick Browser the KDE menu bar disappears and I cannot get it to come back. This also happened once when trying to load Firefox, which never loaded.

− | 6.) When shuting the system down, HP ze4610us, the shutdown hangs completely right after sending the kill signal.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | 7.) I have not tried my usb flash drive but will next to see if the ub driver problem above hits me as well
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | 8.) Unable to boot on a Toshiba Satellite Pro 6000 laptop with a NTFS partition. Boots correctly everywhere with a FAT32 partition on the disk. For more informations and investigations, [[http://www.knoppix.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=18245 see this topic]].

| + | |
− | | + | |
− | 10.) Knoppix always and only tries to load the vesa and fb drivers for X. Even if another driver [e.g. i810] is detected. X worked on most machines in 3.7, but many are broken in 3.9 now. Maybe consider reverting X's config or modifying the script? --[[User:tnm91|tnm91]] 17:29, 10 Jun 2005 (GMT)

− | 11) No connection to internet via ISDN with FritzCard 2.0 PCI, with both possibilities. | + | |
− | | + | |
− | 12) Does not boot on DELL Latitude D400
| + | |
− | The only KNOPPIX that ever booted on DELL D400 was 3.6.
| + | |
− | All earlier and later versions do not find a KNOPPIX filesystem (written in red) and drop to a basic shell.
| + | |
− | Pity: we all use company-supplied D400 here and are stuck at 3.6.

− | 14) Tried to compile the kernel. Get same error trying to install either kernel-source-2.6.11 (from debian) or linux-2-6.11 from linux.org. After creating the directory in /usr/src and cd to directory, I enter any make statement, i.e.:
| + | |
− | make config (or make oldconfig etc) then I get error message:
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | HOSTCC scripts/basic/fixdep
| + | |
− | In file included from /usr/include/sys/socket.h:35,
| + | |
− | from /usr/include/netinet/in.h:24,
| + | |
− | from /usr/include/arpa/inet.h:23,
| + | |
− | from scripts/basic/fixdep.c:115:
| + | |
− | /usr/include/bits/socket.h:305:24: asm/socket.h: No such file or directory
| + | |
− | make[1]: *** [scripts/basic/fixdep] Error 1
| + | |
− | make: *** [scripts_basic] Error 2
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | Of course, I did not create /usr/include. There are no pre-requisite packages, I know of (mentioned in various howto's), that are not already installed.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | 15) After installing 3.9 on disk, it is necessary to configure the network. After configuring the network it appeared to work fine, i.e.: ping heise.de worked as expected; HOWEVER: ping localhost or ping 127.0.0.1 did not work...
| + | |
− | ifconfig -a revealed that the lo interface had no address. Thus:
| + | |
− | ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1
| + | |
− | fixed the problem. Of course. nobody thinks of testing such a thing until later when, for instance, finding out it is not possible to install a printer without localhost (localhost:631 needed by Cups).
| + | |
− | If this error is not reproducible I am willing to install 3.9 again and carefully note the configuration steps. BTW I have firewire (I renamed 1394eth.ko) which gave me two ethernet devices. Perhaps something happened there.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | ''yacc:'' I do not know if it's reproducible, but I've got the same problem with 3.9. The curious thing is that /etc/network/interfaces looks good
| + | |
− | and /etc/rcS.d contains links to networking, etc.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | Same problem. As workaround I used /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh with "ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1"

− | 16) On HD installed 3.9 (in IBM Thinkpad R30), Xine crash without any error report. It opens for a few seconds with splashscreen, and then close itself. Still looking for a workaround.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | 17) Apparently home= doesn't work with 3.9. myconf= does, but only when specifying the location explicitly (not myconf=scan). If it makes a difference, I'm using a USB key to boot, and the partition which I would use is the second partition on the same device - in my case, /dev/ubb1 is KNOPPIX, and /dev/ubb2 is my ext2 partition for my personal files and config. I've tried the following boot: options:
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | * knoppix home=scan
| + | |
− | * knoppix home=/mnt/ubb2/knoppix.img
| + | |
− | * knoppix home=/dev/ubb2/knoppix.img
| + | |
− | * knoppix home=/mnt/ubb2
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | Please also see [http://www.knoppix.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=19651 this forum post]. Thanks! --[[User:NightMonkey|NightMonkey]] 09:11, 24 Jun 2005 (GMT)

− | 18.) When using OpenOffice, new files can be written, but existing files can not be opened, it
| + | |
− | just hangs. Stack trace shows it is attempting to connect to the Mozilla Security libraries.
| + | |
− | The script in /opt/openoffice/program/soffice has this bit of code in it:
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | # misc. environment variables
| + | |
− | OPENOFFICE_MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME="$sd_inst/program"
| + | |
− | export OPENOFFICE_MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | Commenting this out causes it to work. Security code works as well, you can create signed
| + | |
− | documents provided you install a certificate into firefox first.

− | 19) The cheatcode fromhd=/dev/hd?? does not seem to work. In the file "linuxrc"
| + | |
− | (in miniroot.gz), there is the following line.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | case "$CMDLINE" in *fromhd=/dev/*) DEVICES="$fromhd"; ;; esac
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | However, I don't think that the variable $fromhd is automatically defined.
