FC4, synaptics and ps mouse
by William John Murray 24 Nov '04

24 Nov '04

Hello there, I have a laptop with synaptics touchpad and ps mouse. These work very well together, allowing fancy tapping with the synaptics and scrolling using the ps mouse wheel, but ONLY after adding the grub boot line: psmouse.resetafter=3 This took quite a lot of googling to find, and I wonder if there is a reason this behaviour could not be default? Laptop convenience is something FC4 should aim for, in my opinion... Bill

Getting SPRING Multi-Card media reader working under Fedora
by Dwaine Garden 23 Nov '04

23 Nov '04

I have a six-in-one media reader. The first slot works fine in Fedora. I did read that some devices need probing of the scsi lun's. There was some information that needed to be provided to get the fedora team to make the necessary changes, so the device could work without enabling probing of LUN's in the kernel. I have the Spring-Rev1.1 Multi 6-in-one media reader. I would like to get the device to work with different storage media. Could someone let me know what information is required. I then get the information and open up a bugzilla report on it. Dwaine.

Does anyone know how to debug login record issues or who to talk to about login record issues? I am experiencing a weird issue described in bugzilla 140297 and I would like to debug it myself, but I don't seem to be able to find anyone to assist me with it. Sean

kernel module support for sk98lin and FC3
by RaXeT 23 Nov '04

Apparently the latest driver update from SysKonnect for the Marvell Yukon net driver will work in the stock kernel 2.6.9, didn't try the source for 681 from FC3 though. RaXeT

Fedora Core 3 Test Update: prelink-0.3.3-0.fc3
by Jakub Jelinek 23 Nov '04

23 Nov '04

--------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Test Update Notification FEDORA-2004-458 2004-11-23 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Product : Fedora Core 3 Name : prelink Version : 0.3.3 Release : 0.fc3 Summary : An ELF prelinking utility Description : The prelink package contains a utility which modifies ELF shared libraries and executables, so that far less relocations need to be resolved at runtime and thus programs come up faster. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: I believe this should fix the problems people are seeing with eggcups or gnome-volume-manager. For testing I'd especially appreciate testers updating to this prelink right after FC3 install, prelink at that point (either by manually running /etc/cron.daily/prelink or waiting a day) and only afterwards up2dating other packages and re-prelinking again. --------------------------------------------------------------------- * Tue Nov 23 2004 Jakub Jelinek <jakub(a)redhat.com> 0.3.3-0.fc3 - if layout code needs to re-prelink some library, make sure all libraries that depend on it are re-prelinked too (#140081) - add several more checks before deciding it is ok to prelink a binary (even if another bug like #140081 was in, these checks should hopefully catch it and refuse to (re-)prelink the binary) - added new PRELINK_NONRPM_CHECK_INTERVAL variable to /etc/prelink, defaulting to 7 days. Prelink nightly job will not do anything if that interval has not elapsed since last prelinking and and the rpm database has not been modified since that prelinking. This is useful if you rely on rpm/up2date/yum/apt-rpm for library and binary updates. If you combine it with other means (installs from source, tarballs etc.), you probably want to set PRELINK_NONRPM_CHECK_INTERVAL=0. - update prelink man page (#126468) --------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be downloaded from: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/testing/3/ 27fcdffe47b38f3463abcf67a7caa903 SRPMS/prelink-0.3.3-0.fc3.src.rpm 526a5b0f2df03ba28f95a2e853256a87 x86_64/prelink-0.3.3-0.fc3.x86_64.rpm b92daaf9944283140dd289bd96a2b4da x86_64/debug/prelink-debuginfo-0.3.3-0.fc3.x86_64.rpm 73bda3aac811930f4532e35a13f84de4 i386/prelink-0.3.3-0.fc3.i386.rpm 7a0d6ec7a400d5dace07c2278019c496 i386/debug/prelink-debuginfo-0.3.3-0.fc3.i386.rpm This update can also be installed with the Update Agent; you can launch the Update Agent with the 'up2date' command. You may need to edit your up2date channels configuration. Within /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources enable the following line: yum updates-testing http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/testing/3/$… ---------------------------------------------------------------------

Needed Advice
by Joel Juliano 23 Nov '04

23 Nov '04

I know this is not the place to ask questions like this, but I just trust more people here than other forums, and I believe people here are more experienced as well. My Question is: - How do you save money? I have a very terrible way of managing my personal finance, after recieving salary, within a few days I'm back to broke, I'm a 22 yrs. old technical consultant (single), and I'm really have this problem, if someone would give me advice, I'll print it, and I'll laminate it, and put it in front of my desk, and doors, because I really need it, and I'll give you Gmail accounts. ^_^
