kernel 2.6.11-1.1287_FC4 and Thinpad T20
by Michael A. Peters 08 May '05

08 May '05

IBM Thinkpad T20, 700MHz selinux disabled, rhgb disabled On some kernels, X11 would fail to start some of the time. rhgb would run but when gdm started, sometimes I would not get a login screen, could not ping machine. If I did get to gdm login screen, its rock solid stable after that. Disabled rhgb - still was a problem sometimes, so rhgb was not at fault - but I left it disabled anyway. It is NOT a problem with knoppix, so its not a hardware issue. Virtual consoles also do not work in runlevel 5 (haven't tried others) kernel 2.6.11-1.1284_FC4 seemed better - virtual consoles still didn't work, but I seemed to have no problems booting to runlevel 5. If it still was a problem in that kernel, I just have been lucky. kernel 2.6.11-1.1287_FC4 - have not had a successful boot to runlevel 5 - happens every time I try, switching to 1284 in grub and it boots into runlevel 5 just fine.

But that's the least of my worries, only mentioned in case it's an acpi issue I'm seeing.

FC4T1 and Yum Update
by Peter Ennis 07 May '05

07 May '05

I am running FC4T1 and yum update it regularly. FC4T2 has been released. FC4T3 is due 5/10/05 Does FC4T1 automatically get updated to the new test release with yum or is a reinstall needed? I checked the list archive, Fedora FAQ and googled but found no answer. Also, Powered by eWP - Add to an online address book - Click to See Sender's Card

problem with yum + suggestion
by Neal Becker 07 May '05

07 May '05

I'm trying to update from FC4T2 to current rawhide, x86_64: yum update: [...] --> Running transaction check --> Processing Dependency: struts11 = 1.1-1jpp_2fc for package: struts11-webapps-tomcat5 --> Finished Dependency Resolution Error: Missing Dependency: struts11 = 1.1-1jpp_2fc is needed by package struts11-webapps-tomcat5 OK, what about: sudo yum --exclude=struts11-webapps-tomcat5 update Same result! Now, a suggestion: Why can't yum have a switch to tell it to go ahead and update whatever it can, instead of refusing to proceed to update 1000 packages just because of 1 dep problem?

Standard yum configuration
by Kyrre Ness Sjobak 07 May '05

07 May '05

Some questions about the standard yum config: - Will the fedora/fedora-extras gpgkeys be added by default, or could the yum error message at least give some hints how to install them? Could it even ask "%s gpgkey not installed, would you like to install them now? [y/N]" like up2date? I think you must thrust RH anyway, as you allready has installed the whole OS packaged and signed by them... - Will fedora-extras.repo be included in /etc/yum.repos.d/ by default? Will it be enabled by default? - Will pup be installed by default? What will happen to up2date? Kyrre Ness Sjøbæk

New OOo Icons: Menu or Panel?
by Christopher A. Williams 07 May '05

07 May '05

The following only applies to the new GNOME / clearlooks theme and menus - KDE has a different situation going on. The new OOo icons in the menu list look very nice, IMHO. However, they don't match what's currently in the panel at the top. From a usability point of view, these should be consistent. While I prefer that the new icons show up in the panel as well, that's just my personal taste. What's more important is these should be the same throughout. The same goes with the icons for the Web browser (and other apps), although this difference is easier to get away with since the panel icon launches whatever the default browser is, as opposed to a specific one. ...Just my 2 cents worth and someone may already be addressing it as well.

Dingbats font & OO Equation editor questions
by Paul F. Johnson 07 May '05

07 May '05

Hi, Dingbats first. I have ticks and crosses in OOCalc which uses 3 and 5 in the Dingbats font. If I import the file created in OOCalc into OOWriter, the character "5" (a cross in dingbats) shows fine, but the "3" (a tick) gives an empty square. If the font is changed to zapf dingbats, I get the number 3 and 5 showing and not a tick or cross (which I see with dingbats). Is there any reason for this happening or is it something I need to report into bugzilla? Does anyone know if there is a list anywhere of the likes of specialist maths symbols for the equation editor? I have a list for greek characters, but need the likes of the "L" used for polar co-ordinates. TTFN Paul -- "In an urban society, everything connects.

FC4T2 on PPC64
by Joe.Hoot＠itec.suny.edu 07 May '05

07 May '05

Hi all, Has anyone had issues with their system shutting down after a small amount of load? I installed FC4T2 on PPC64 (dual proc G5). The system, for the most part, stays up. However, every once in awhile it crashes/powers off. This ocurrs within seconds of running a command (seems to be random commands. Probably something that access disk such as yum check-update or a grep or find). Thanks, Joe _____________________________ SUNY - ITEC Information Technology Exchange Center Systems Programmer/Analyst E-mail: Joe.Hoot(a)itec.suny.edu Office: (716)878-4644 Cell: (716)908-6292 Fax: (716)878-3485 _____________________________

CD boot problem with FC4test1 AND test2
by Oliver Kahl 06 May '05

06 May '05

Since nobody else have post problems with the boot process, execpt people with a dell c600 laptop a one other, I would ask this way. Is there anybody else, who don´t saw the "boot:" promt from the installation/help menue after boot from the first cd, and/or results in an dot "." in the next line afer press any key? Some of the dicussions about this you can found here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-test-list/2005-April/msg01347.html https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-test-list/2005-April/msg00959.html After a few tests, I think the problem could be brake down to the point, that it doesen´t work with the actually version of isolinux 3.07 for the boot process. It can be a problem with a bug/incompatibility in the dell´s BIOS, but I´m also found this guy with a complete differen hardware, an Via C3 system, more about this found here: http://syslinux.zytor.com/archives/2005-March/004967.html http://syslinux.zytor.com/archives/2005-April/005012.html >>> I don´t know if the newer version 3.08 pre XXX fix this, but with a substitution of ISOLINUX 2.11 FROM AN OLDER FC3 installation cd I could SOLVE THIS PROBLEM completely! <<< Only the change of the isolinux.bin file is enough. So my question for the fedora team. Is it very nessesary to use the newer version of isolinux or is it possible to go one step back to an 2.xx version? I know, since 3.xx there where many new thinks added but did we realy need them? Many other distributions use the 2.xx tree. Oliver Kahl
