unionfs is broken again, but not as heavily as in 3.9. If you install certain packages with dpkg or apt-get, a kernel oops can happen, though it doesn't freeze the system. This is quite bad for people (like me) who like to test-install new software on the live system, so because of this (and the prior reported bugs) there will be a hotfix of the 4.0.2 DVD soon (probably even before I get a chance to finish the CD).

Revision as of 10:43, 20 August 2005

I just added this new buglist, since I found bugs in 4.0.1. ;-) -KK

1.) Reported by: KK

The knoppix-terminalserver script does not setup the initrd correctly because ld-linux.so.2 is skipped when parsing the ldd output. Therefore, neither pump nor ifconfig can start when booting the terminalserver client.

Solution: Prior to starting the terminalserver, do a

wget -O - ftp://ftp.uni-kl.de/pub/linux/knoppix-dvd/KNOPPIX_V4.0.1DVD-knoppix-terminalserver.patch | sudo patch -p0

2.) Reported by: KK

The automatically generated desktop icons for harddisks are named "Festplatte" in all languages. Sorry, I screwed up here when shortening the hd icon label in order to display the real device name.

3.) Reported by: KK

/usr/bin/cdrecord, /usr/bin/cdrdao, /usr/bin/cdda2wav and /usr/bin/cdparanoia have wrong (missing) group execute permissions.

Solution: Before using any of these programs or running k3b, do a

sudo chmod g+w /usr/bin/{cdrecord,cdrdao,cdda2wav,cdparanoia}

4.) Reported by: pbs

OpenOffice does not open existing documents. May be related to bug #18 in V3.9-2005-05-27. See possible fix there. (Also, new Openoffice 2.0 filename extensions are not automatically recognized.)

5.) Reported by: pbs

Mouse is now dead when using KVM (Keyboard/Video/Mouse) switch; directly plugging in a mouse works. KVM switch still works transparently for V3.8.2,V3.9,V4.0DVDLinuxtag.

6:) Reported by: guest
