pcmcia-problems...
by Tim Kossack 13 Jan '04

13 Jan '04

hi, i have a vaio z600lek with a pc-card cdrom which was properly detected and installed in red hat 8. in red hat 9 as well as fedora 1, installation from it works only with the workaround in the release notes, and it won't work at all afterwards when running either red hat 9 or fc1. i was already over at pcmcia-cs.sourceforge.net, but they couldn't figure out why it's not working either (red hat uses some modified pcmcia-package, no?) anyways, because this might be a relevant issue for fc2 affecting all users of notebokks of the same kind, i post over here. here's the link (i didn't try his last tip, because i don't understand what to do - as you can see from the thread, my knowledge of linux is still very limited. so pls bear with me) http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=855719&forum_id=7049 thx for any help.

Up2date rhn-applet with FTP and Apt support
by Daniel Veillard 09 Jan '04

09 Jan '04

[Oops, sent to fedora-devel-list instead of fedora-test-list initially ] I just released rhn-applet-2.1.5 adding support for FTP network access to repositories (#112658) and support for Apt repositories (#111759). You can find it there http://people.redhat.com/veillard/testing/FC1/i386/rhn-applet/2.1.5/ and it should appear on Rawhide at some point.

Yum Upgrading to Rawhide

zeroconf
by Parrish M Myers 09 Jan '04

09 Jan '04

Hello, Has anyone attempted to include zeroconf modules info fedora core: either rendezvous or some open source alternative? If not, I would like to ask for some advice... It seems that OSI has approved the Apple open source license. I believe that rendezvous is released under this license. If someone were to start creating zeroconf modules that work in fedora, would it be preferable to write everything from scratch or use rendezvous? I know there are a couple of open source implementations of these things out there like zcip and openslp... Are these good projects to start with? I know these are nebulous questions, but I am curious to know what would be a good direction to start contributing to this technology.

ATI All-In-Wonder Radeon 9800 Pro can't graphically install
by Erich Hoover 08 Jan '04

08 Jan '04

Now that I've finally got around to upgrading to Fedora Core 1 (had 0.95 before) I've run into the same installation problem I had before, the installer does not support the ATI All-In-Wonder 9800 Pro. As I posted last time, the RedHat 9 installer works fine with the card but the Fedora Installer doesn't. The installer totally locks up and requires a hard reset and a text installation must be performed, then the new drivers must be downloaded from ATI's website (at least they did the first time, they didn't this time but I'm assuming the upgrade didn't touch my video driver). I've included my lspci report in the hopes that someone will be able to fix this so that this doesn't happen to other people (installing the driver from the prompt is a pain). lspci report: 00:00.0 Host bridge: VIA Technologies, Inc.
