Anyone know what this means?
by Adam Hough
I get this from dmesg running FC5 2.6.18-1.2200.fc5smp. The machine
seems to be stable (was crashing very frequently before this kernel in
FC). Also yes I know to boot with noapci as a kernel parameter to most
likely get rid of this error. I am still curious as to what it means.
ACPI Exception (acpi_processor-0681): AE_NOT_FOUND, Processor Device is
not present [20060707]
ACPI: Getting cpuindex for acpiid 0x2
ACPI Exception (acpi_processor-0681): AE_NOT_FOUND, Processor Device is
not present [20060707]
ACPI: Getting cpuindex for acpiid 0x3
Also hyperthreading is disabled in the bios as the machine refuses to
boot if it is enabled with this kernel and all previous FC5 kernels
panic on this machine. Memory is fine also no errors after ~90 hours of
memtest86+. The motherboard and processors are new also.

Cursor problem
by Астахов Петр
Hello!
I bought motherboard Gigabyte GA-K8N51PVMT-9 on chipset GeForce 6150 and
installed FC5. I can't see cursor in X. When computer loading, and rhgb
show the progress of loading, I see cursor and everything OK. When
computer is loaded and X started, there is no viewable cursor on the
screen. I move mouse, all necessary menus etc are highlighted, but no
cursor. I update kernel and xorg - result the same. I installed nvidia
drivers for video from livna - but result the same - no cursor.
What shall I do?
With best regard, Peter (Zebar) Astakhov

dump/restore (or "star") and SELinux problems
by Kayvan A. Sylvan
Hi folks,
I am trying again. I haven't gotten an answer that works yet and hoping that
people who know more about SELinux and Fedora can see this and suggest
a solution (or at least a way to investigate).
My goal: To be able to reszie a partition (or rearrange filesystems) without
losing any data or meta-data.
parted is useless, since it won't handle the xattr filesystem data.
I used dump to create a filesystem backup, then used the FC5 Install DVD
to go into rescue mode and restore the dump. That seem to work okay for
the file data. However, for each and every file, I get the message:
restore: lsetxattr ./filename_being_restored failed: Invalid argument
Using "ls -Z", I see that all the files end up being unlabeled (or they
are in the unlabeled_t context).
These files were all set up in Fedora FC4, using the targeted policy.
When I am booting up using the FC5 Install DVD ("linux rescue"), the SELinux
startup shows:
security: 3 users, 6 roles, 1161 types, 135 bools, 1 sens, 256 cats
security: 55 classes, 38679 rules
SELinux: Completing initialization.
SELinux: Setting up existing superblocks.
SELinux: initialized (dev loop0, type squashfs), not configured for labeling
SELinux: initialized (dev usbfs, type usbfs), uses genfs_contexts
SELinux: initialized (dev ramfs, type ramfs), uses genfs_contexts
SELinux: initialized (dev ramfs, type ramfs), uses genfs_contexts
SELinux: initialized (dev tmpfs, type tmpfs), uses transition SIDs
SELinux: initialized (dev debugfs, type debugfs), uses genfs_contexts
SELinux: initialized (dev selinuxfs, type selinuxfs), uses genfs_contexts
SELinux: initialized (dev mqueue, type mqueue), uses transition SIDs
SELinux: initialized (dev hugetlbfs, type hugetlbfs), uses genfs_contexts
SELinux: initialized (dev devpts, type devpts), uses transition SIDs

SELinux: initialized (dev tmpfs, type tmpfs), uses transition SIDs
SELinux: initialized (dev futexfs, type futexfs), uses genfs_contexts
SELinux: initialized (dev pipefs, type pipefs), uses task SIDs
SELinux: initialized (dev sockfs, type sockfs), uses task SIDs
SELinux: initialized (dev cpuset, type cpuset), not configured for labeling
SELinux: initialized (dev proc, type proc), uses genfs_contexts
SELinux: initialized (dev bdev, type bdev), uses genfs_contexts
SELinux: initialized (dev rootfs, type rootfs), uses genfs_contexts
SELinux: initialized (dev sysfs, type sysfs), uses genfs_contexts
I have also tried using "star" with the following args:
star -v -c -xdev -sparse -acl -link-dirs level=0 -wtardumps \
f=root.star -C / .
And then, when booted into the rescue mode, did the following to extract:
star -xpU -restore f=root.star
This produced the same result. The files end up being unlabeled.
I am wondering if I have to have the same SELinux policy loaded while
in the rescue mode in order to avoid the "lsetxattr: invalid argument"
error? How would I go about doing that?
Thanks for any help!

What is the proper way to restart udev?
by Steven W. Orr
I found /sbin/udevstart but there is no udevstop. Can I kill -1 the
running udevd, or do I kill -9 the udevd followed by a udevstart, or do I
have to reboot?
TIA

BUG: spinlock wrong CPU on CPU#1, fgBT878/1849 (Not tainted)
by Alan McIvor
Hi,
I'm trying to upgrade a device driver from FC2 to FC5 and am running
into the problem shown below. This is on a hyperthreading P4 3GHz
running kernel 2.6.15-1.2054_FC5smp. It also happens using kernel
2.6.16-1.2096_FC5smp. There are 16 devices in the machine. For each
there is a fgBT878 process, running at the max SCHED_FIFO
priority. If I reduce the number of devices to 1 or 2, the problem
doesn't appear to happen (i.e., with 16 devices the panic happens
pretty much straight away, with 1 or 2 devices I have run for an
hour). I have no problems with a non-SMP kernel.
What sort of errors should I be looking for in my driver code?
Thanks
Alan McIvor

Mozilla - Flash Player..
by Ted Gervais
Hi everyone. I am knew to the list and have Fedora Core 5 newly
installed.
Most things are ok but I can't get the plugin for Macromedia Flash
Player installed. I have tried all the methods available to me and
while Fedora tells me that the Flash Player is installed, I don't see it
when I click on Help>About Plugins.
I have tried making sure the Flash Player files are in
~/.mozilla/plugins, and /usr/lib/mozilla, and any other place I think it
might be looking for it. No luck.
I have also tried to install it manually rather than using the automated
process. And still no luck. But in every case, Fedora tells me that
the Flash Player is installed.
Now, how do I tell Mozilla that it is installed.??

FC6 and acroread - not working
by Florin Andrei
I got acroread-7.0.5-2.2.fc5.rf.nosrc.rpm from here:
http://dries.ulyssis.org/rpm/packages/acroread/info.html
I extracted the spec file. I downloaded the latest acroread tar.gz from
Adobe, then adjusted the spec for the new version. Then rebuilt the
acroread binary package.
But when I launch acroread, I get a bunch of messages like this:
expr: syntax error
expr: syntax error
expr: syntax error
expr: syntax error
expr: syntax error
expr: syntax error
expr: syntax error
expr: syntax error
expr: syntax error

Any clue?

Re: bacula server
by RYAN M. vAN GINNEKEN
Thanks again mostly u/we got it to work so far. However it is asking for a pile of dependancies. I know give a guy an inch and he will try to take a mile or km here in Canada. Is there a way to install without any gui stuff or mabey i am wrong mabey there is no gui stuff. Some of the dependancies for those dependancies are X11 related.
I do not have any X11 stuff on this box it has no xwindows/gnome system and is minimum install Command prompt only. So before i go ahead and make a big mess of my faily clean fedora box do i really need all these or is there a way to turn some of them off.
Thanks again and sorry about top post i think my clock was messed up not sure how it happend but should be fixed now.

We got the defines wrong. Try this:
$ rpmbuild --rebuild \
