cups broken for x86_64
by Chuck Mead
Hopefully next weekend I will get a chance to bugzilla this but I
thought I should go ahead and mention it.
I have an x86_64 and an x86 installation of FC2 in my network and cups
works fine on the x86 install but is completely b0rked on the x86_64.
With cups in debug mode I see the following in my logs on the x86_64
machine:
D [06/Jun/2004:12:36:15 -0400] [Job 4] no psname was provided.
That appears over and over again and the gs process does not appear to
*EVER* complete. The machine loads up and becomes very difficult to use
like there's some kind of a race in effect.
Any ideas about what else I can report to help debug this?

FC2 xorg mouse click issue
by Jeff Stephens
Howdy - just installed FC2 this weekend to find that all mouse clicks are being seen as
CTRL+click.
So, a left click looks like I'm trying to move an app window. Quite annoying to have to
press CTRL before every click - even this doesn't work sometimes, as the apps tend to
think I'm really wanting a CTRL+click for multi-selecting stuff.
This same mouse worked fine in FC1 - it is a logitech wireless USB keyboard/mouse duo.
Any hints? Anyone else seeing this?

which video hardware (and which drivers) is this?
Ooops. It's an Intel based machine with I810e integrated video(16meg)
and a p3 600 CPU with 256 megs of system memory. Using the latest kernel
from your site (Arjan).

OpenGL and the 2.6.6 kernel
by Mike Lurk
OpenGL seems to work in windowed but as soon as you try to go full
screen it just boots you out of the desktop and puts you to the login
screen. I have been thinking about that for a while and I have come to
the conclusion that the 2.6.6 kernel memory requirements have changed,
meaning that 256 megs of system memory is not enough anymore. I did work
with FC1 and FC2. The 2.6.5 kernels did work until you went to 24 bit
color and then it would restart the desktop with any opengl game
(windowed or not). Go to 16 bit color and all was fine.
My question is, is there a way to install the 2.6.5 kernel or is it
better to just reinstall FC2?
I don't want to add more memory on this system because I will get a more
up to date system soon.

Re: x86_64 Installation media question
by Janina Sajka
I've been trying to dd diskboot.img onto a USB thumb drive. I get no errors from dd, but subsequently I'm unable to loop mount the file system. I get illegal block errors.
I'm wondering whether my media has gone bad? Has anyone else used diskboot.img from the FC2 X86 release iso?
PS: This was working fine back in Test 3, if memory serves.

problem with /sbin/devlabel (tr not available on root partition)
by G.Wolfe Woodbury
Running rawhide fully updated to 2004-jun-05, when booting there are
several screenfulls of error messages from /sbin/devlabel complaining
about tr(1) not being found.
This is obviously due to tr being in /usr/bin and only root is mounted
at the time it complains. (There are a couple of other missing programs
that devlabel wants, but I don't have a comprehensive list of them.)

So, other than the release notes which talk about it, where is it? What
package provides it?
thanks.
