Anyone else getting a panic with new kernel for FC3? Up2date gave it to me today. kernel-2.6.9-1.678_FC3 Cannot find logical volumes. Dell Optiplex GX280 SATA, dual boot with WinXP. Picking old kernel from Grub boots fine.

My FC3 machine indicates that eggcups is running. However, I don't have a printer attached and eggcups does not seem to do anything. I am not sure if this info will help you any though

Would not argue with such an authoritative source. I thought that might be the case.

That's simpler than I expected. Makes sense though. Thanks. -- Henry

Installing Java
by Robert L Cochran 23 Nov '04

23 Nov '04

For Fedora Core 3, do I need to install a Java distribution, or is there a Java that already works? A quick check shows I have a jar utility installed but not, apparently, a java engine. The Release Notes say nothing about Java. Thanks Bob Cochran Greenbelt, Maryland, USA

sk98lin for Marvell Yukon net
by RaXeT 22 Nov '04

22 Nov '04

Anyone know if you have to make your own kernel for Marvell Yukon net support to work? I certainly can't use the kernel-2.6.9-1.681 to any advantage. I also can't find what used to be available for kernel-source. So we basically have to download from kernel.org. Right? Thanks, RaXeT

Fedora Core 2.92 Test 3 (86_64) on reiserfs
by dirk.nissen＠tiscali.be 22 Nov '04

22 Nov '04

I don't know if this is to be considered as a bug, an exotic configuration or an manipulation error. When I was trying to upgrade my Fedora to Fedora Core 2.92 Test 3 (86_64), the program blocked. My root directory is on a reiserfs filesystem. Other distributions are installed on the same disk on other partitions. I removed them from fstab before upgrading. When I selected updating (and after a few other replys, like language and keyboard) a dialog box appeared "looking for packages" the mouse did move and the mousecursor suggested waiting, and changed after a regular interval. Only in the beginning there was some disk access, than nothing else happened. When I did try to install without formatting or erasing the partition, I had the same problem after selecting the packages etc. Using a "linux reiserfs" commandline after the bootcd had started up didn't change anything. My old installation is still functional. If I remember well their was no problem installing the old version, I just had to add the parameter reiserfs in lilo.conf to get the root directory mounted. I hope this is useful -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tiscali ADSL GO & Light, 2 maanden gratis, geniet ervan... http://reg.tiscali.be/adsl/welcome.asp?lg=NL
