It seems the bug in the installer is not fixed as I'm still getting the "Mountpoint /home is not formatted" error.
Edit: After giving me the above error twice, then freezing once it seemingly accepted my separate /home partition, the installer succeeded on the fourth attempt. |

Downloaded the rc3. Booted fromiso. Did an update install from the iso.
Very quick; no errors. Rebooted fine. So far everything seems to be working.
Mainly just to get the new graphics.  Congratulations!
It is getting better and better. |

an observation regarding printer-setup:
starting with Kanotix-Easter, I think, my HP-Laserjet would not work "out of the box". When doing the printer-setup with the gui (KANOTIX-configuration-printer-setup) I got to the screen offering to print a test page and there it stopped - no printing of test page. It was the same with RC3. Up to now I had solved the problem with the advices found in forum (apt-get update, apt-get --purge remove cupsys........)
This time, with the RC3, I tried "chmod 777 /dev/lp0" and everything went smooth setting up the parallel printer - test page war printed and everything else thereafter.... |

few problems 
Desktop: Core2Duo, Asus P5B, GeForce 7600GT
- after hd-install the gfx driver in /etc/X11/xorg.conf is vesa, but should be nv. through this x doesn't start.
I have this problem since 2006-1 RC1.
end of /var/log/Xorg.0.log
Code:
...
(II) VESA(0): Total Memory: 4096 64KB banks (262144kB)
(EE) VESA(0): No matching modes
(II) UnloadModule: "vesa"
(II) UnloadModule: "ddc"
(II) UnloadModule: "int10"
(II) Unloading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/libint10.so
(II) UnloadModule: "vbe"
(II) Unloading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/libvbe.so
(EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.
Fatal server error:
no screens found
===========================================
Laptop: Acer Aspire 1693wlmi, PentiumM, ATI x700 mobile
2nd problem:
- xmodul-ati in live mode still produces a blackscreen in x
3rd prob:
- after installing fglrx I get a blackscreen when entering init 3 (ctrl-alt-f1 => login as root => init 3 => blackscreen).
When I put a TFT on the external monitor connector it shows a picture. So I think that monitor1 and monitor2 are switched.
Tried some things with aticontrol like --force-monitor LVDS, nocrt1,nocrt2,no...;
switching Option "MonitorLayout" "LVDS, AUTO" to Option "MonitorLayout" "NONE, LVDS"
all this didn't work.
my xorg.conf now:
Code:
Section "Device"
Option "RenderAccel" "1"
### Available Driver options are:-
# sw_cursor is needed for some ati and radeon cards
#Option "sw_cursor"
#Option "hw_cursor"
#Option "NoAccel"
#Option "ShowCache"
#Option "ShadowFB"
#Option "UseFBDev"
#Option "Rotate"
Identifier "Card0"
# The following line is auto-generated by KNOPPIX mkxf86config
Driver "fglrx"
Option "UseInternalAGPGART" "no"
Option "VideoOverlay" "on"
Option "OpenGLOverlay" "off"
Option "MonitorLayout" "LVDS, AUTO"
VendorName "All"
BoardName "All"
# BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection

Problem booting RC3 from hd-install on usb-harddisk: There was no problem installing Kanotix-2006-01-RC3 on my usb-harddisk, but inspite doing the procedure decribed in the FAQ which modified mkinitrd etc. RC3 does not boot from the usb-disk: "kernel panic - not syncing: VFS unable to mount root fs on unknown block (0,0)"
Including KanoEaster I was always able to boot Kanotix from usb-disks - is this a bug in RC3 or a feature?
Poormans-install on sda using cheatcodes "tohd=/dev/sda5 bootusb2" does work, however. |

Little confused here
"xorg.conf is vesa, but should be nv".
"after installing fglrx"
Which video card do you have ?? |

When booting CD(RC1 and RC3) on Dell Latitude D505 I get this text in the upper left corner. I see the graphical background with the bottom and right cut off. The 30 second count down does not start until I hit a key. If I try to hit another key it dumps me into a text mode grub menu. I can select an option and it boots OK. lspci shows 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82852/828
55 GM/GME/PM/GMV Processor to I/O Controller (rev 02).

Congrats on what looks like a promising release. RC3 seems to run very fast on this laptop. I've run many other distros and all versions of Kanotix but stuck with Ubuntu32&64 plus Freebsd6.1 on a second harddrive. Ubuntu for compatibility and BSD for speed. RC3 seems to be on par with BSD preformance-wise but way more compatible.
On to the possible bugs..
This lappy has the crappy SIS 760 video which although detected as "sis" during boot was switched to "vesa" in xorg.conf, I did type in screen=1280x800 in grub. Changing xorg.conf manually and running restartx brought back the res to 1280x800
What to my surprise, is that a working Broadcom43xx driver. It is recognized during boot and starts the light blinking but can't seem to find any AP's using iwlist eth1 scanning or manual setup with iwconfig or netcardconfig. The light comes on but either blinks a few times and dies out or stays on steady and seems to crash. Tried a Dlink dwl-122 USB NIC and produced the same results, no connection to any AP's iwlist eth2 scanning came up with no results. I haven't tried ndiswrapper yet.
That's it for my lappy, I also ran this up on my desktops both are 64bit dual-core one amd and one intel. Both tests were done using the toram cheat code. The AMD with an ATI 9550 ran flawlessly, I believe that xorg was using the ati driver but didn't mind as the speed and responsiveness was unbelievable
The Intel on the other hand has a GMA950 which hasn't so far been any good with xorg. RC3 is the first linux distro that has been successfully run on it tho as previous versions like 2005-04 64bit would not even boot. Graphics problems aside the Intel HDA sound driver was not able to produce any sound. Other than sound it seems to run OK for normal use.
Overall I feel when the release is out I will be replacing Ubuntu on the laptop. While functional, Debian just seems to smoke it performance-wise. Ubuntu w/ E17 is slower than RC3 with KDE, What's wrong with that picture??
Cheers |

After you get all the real bugs sqashed, here are a couple of cosmetic details for your consideration:
1. When starting using the "screen=1280x768" cheat, KDE uses that resolution (which is great), but the kdm background does not -- looks like it only goes to 1024x768, leaving black bands on both sides while KDE loads.
2. The clock could look better if you changed it to a "plain clock" with white text. In other words, this...
...looks much better than this:
Not to mention, it'd be nice to have KSynaptics (the KControl Synaptics touchpad configurator) and Synaptic (the GUI front-end for APT) on the CD, so they'd already be there when doing a hard disk install. Obviously, something else would have to go to make room. |

Hello!
I'm testing RC3 in 'Virtual PC' and I've noticed that 'kded' process was taking about 15-20% of CPU. After disabling 'knemo' service in kde control center, kded is now at 0% of CPU!
Also, when I start Kanotix RC3 inside Virtual PC, this is displayed:
Code:
isapnp: checksum for device 1 is not valid (0x89)
isapnp: checksum for device 2 is not valid (0xbe)
Regards, Roman |

Roman, if you configure knemo ( under misc tab ) you can change the backend from Nettools to sys this reduces cpu load. |

just wanted to test rc3 yesterday, but after the new splash screen in silent mode the screen on my notebook kept black. this event also happens with actual kubuntu releases and other distros. i have (what a coincidence) a mobility x700.
but: it doesn't happen with the latest easter preview and/or the latest stable release, there i could boot the live cd without any problems. i only wanted to see the changes ^^
(i hope, my english is understandable) |

The page befor I postet, that I have this problem with x700 mobile, too.
It happens because in live mode there is no
Code:
Option "MonitorLayout" "LVDS, AUTO"
line in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf.
This is needed for xmodul-ati to know which device is the laptop display.
When you connect an external monitor, you'll see, that you have a picture.
I think this is not a bug. |

I am having trouble with RC3 livecd and loading nvidia driver for my nvidia 7600gt card. I use the control panel->Kanotix->Display in administrator mode to load and install the nvidia driver which it does after quitting Xserver then restarting Xserver. The problem is after it loads the nvidia driver and goes back to Xserver, it opens the login window on top of the desktop. You can't close the login window, or login again without going into a loop. You also lose keyboard input! (this has been a problem with RC1, RC2, and RC3). (it loads the VESA driver by default on first booting).

moustache,
did you issue the 'fix-unionfs' command before to enable the live session to be writable?
otherwise no go.

Kanotix loads the vesa driver, because the 7600GT is not listet in pci-id and so the system doesn't know that it's a nvidia gfx card.
The paket "discover1-data" from sid is a bit old.
Code:
apt-cache policy discover1-data

Devil,
I issued the command "sudo fix-unionfs" and it actived the unionfs then I tried again to install the nvidia drivers with the RC3 livecd, as indicated above, with exactly the same results (actually the previous times I tried this, the unionfs was automatically activated before downloading an installing the nvidia driver). The login screen still came up as a window and I lost keyboard input on the desktop. Has anyone else gotten the nvidia drivers to load with the livecd?

i guess it is more a mistake than a bug. all the latest live cds were running perfectly, even the easter-preview rc4 has not a black screen withoud editing the specified xorg.conf. so it is maybe possible to add it.. |
