Hi all! I would like to install The Fedora Ring Tone on my phone. :) I think, there is no such tone, but this may be a good idea and I would like to file a bug for this. :) Which project against I can file a bug? Best regards! Valentin Laskov

Release Notes - Ukranian and Bulgarian translations

by John J. McDonough

Please visit https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/fedora-release-notes-17.0.0-1.fc17 Check out the RPM and the translations and give karma. This corrects all the outstanding bugs. There are a few new untranslated strings. - I added a revision history entry for 17.0 but Publican seems to think this is already translated. - I added the Bulgarian and Ukranian translators names to the contributors - these shouldn't need to be translated. I will continue to build new RPMs as new translations become available. --McD

Fedora 17 Release Notes and "Automatic Multi-Seat Support"

by Kay Sievers

Hey, can we please add a sentence to the Fedora 17 Release Notes about the new out-of-the-box multi-seat setup? It's the first time for Linux to be able to support something like that properly in the Base OS, or without complex manual configuration, or without adding additional software. It's a useful feature for schools and other setups where several people want or need to share a single computer. We like to get the word out and have Fedora taking the credit for being the first distro, and also for letting us do all that in the distro. Details and background is here: http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/multi-seat.html http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=plugable_multiseat_kick Thanks, Kay

Another anaconda noloader change to document for F17: must specify repo= when doing direct kernel boot (e.g. PXE)

by Adam Williamson

So I thought of one more big F17 change that should go in the release notes and/or install guide, when it comes to installation. There are a few use cases for doing a 'direct boot' of the Fedora installer: that is, you don't actually boot from any release medium, but you boot the installer kernel/initrd directly, manually. The most obvious case is a PXE install. In F16, you really _only_ needed to specify the kernel and initrd location, and the install would work - kernel/initrd got you stage1, and stage1 got you stage2. With noloader, this is no longer the case: when you're doing a direct kernel boot, you need to tell it where to find 'stage2'. In other words: you have to pass repo= or stage2= (or inst.repo= or inst.stage2=, as it's now preferred), pointing to a repository. If you want to get just the stage2 image from one server but then the installation packages from some other server, you have to use stage2= : repo= should only be used if the server you're pointing to contains everything needed for the install (both the stage2 image _and_ all the packages you want to install). Note that stage2= still expects to see a 'repository' tree, you can't just pass the path direct to a squashfs.img file (which is how stage2= worked when it previously existed in F15 and earlier). label linux kernel vmlinuz append initrd=initrd.img (or something like that), you need: label linux kernel vmlinuz append initrd=initrd.img repo=http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/17/x86_64/os/ or: label linux kernel vmlinuz append initrd=initrd.img stage2=http://my.internal.server/17/x86_64/os/ (or any other valid mirror). -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net

Announce, Release Notes currently in translation

by Kévin Raymond

Hi translators, We have updated the Fedora 17 Release Notes POT in transifex.net, please, start translating them: https://fedora.transifex.net/projects/p/fedora-release-notes/ You'll notice that few files (Accounts, Entertainment, Boot, Dedication, Networking, Web_Servers) are not accepting translations, that's because we don't have those sections in the current RN. We will clean that later. You should be able to proofread online at http://fedorapeople.org/groups/docs/release-notes/ Please come back to the docs team if translations are not updated, I haven't checked if they are currently rebuilt daily (they should). Be aware that we could update the some bit of the Release Notes if feel the need to. I could already told you that Security.po will be lighter as the firewalld will probably be dropped (feature moved to F18). <= jjmcd, please? Sincere apologies for being this late to provides POTs, we still are setting the right process and writing some scripts… And the maitainers thought that we already had them on transifex. Best Regards, -- Kévin Raymond (shaiton) GPG-Key: A5BCB3A2
