Importing OOImpress docs into OOWriter
by Paul F. Johnson
Hi,
Is this the correct behaviour before I bung it into bugzilla?
I have a Writer file and need to bring in the slides from a Impress
presentation. I go to Insert->Object->OLE->Impress file and then specify
the file.
All that loads is a single slide from the presentation rather than
either all of the slides on separate pages or however it's specified on
the handouts. It doesn't look right to me.
As a side note, I think I've unearthed another bug. If you export an
Impress presentation as an Draw file (either for vsn 1 or vsn 2 of OOo)
and then try to reload it, the file is loaded into Impress rather than
Draw. Anyone else seeing these?
I'm using OOo 1.9.104-2

FC4_64 : Grub Is not Working on Dual boot
by James Black
installing Fc4_64 on hda2 and having Windows on hda1 grub on first boot comes to
minimal bash like command line without the expected options (fedora, other).
Please since this is the rc3 and there will be no other rc until the final
version on june 6 take the time to test this bug!!!
also seems that grub is not installing on MBR even when booting on rescue mode
and try to
grub-install /dev/hda

Runing Amarok
by Bart Kalita
Hi all,
Is anybody running Amarok on current Rawhide?
For me all versions available crash within 20 sec of running or manage
to crash Knotify.
I was trying to compile from source but apparently Amarok is not happy
with current gcc and requires either newer (?) or older version.
TIA

Re: FC4_64 : Grub Is not Working on Dual boot
by James Black
Well no, it'w not the default option what I see...
I see a tect saying that this is a minimal bash like command line.
I manage to boot windows Xp writting:
rootnoverigy (hd0,0)
chainloader +1
boot
I have tried the following:
Installing fc3 and then upgrade to fc4
although fc3 install the grub as it is supposed to fc4 is not!
also on /boot/grub the grub.conf exists and the it's been set ok by the system...
but when booting grub boots to that grub
GNU GRUB version 0.95 (640K lower / 3072K upper memory)
[ Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported. For the first word, TAB
lists possible command completions. Anywhere else TAB lists the possible
completions of a device/filename.]
Im convinsed it's setup problem since It have tryed more than 3 times
installing it even formating the whole disk and setup Xp and then fc4 from
scratch just to find out that IS NOT WORKING AS IT IS SUPPOSED To!

Cannot access windows shares
by Gerry Tool
I have a completely uptodate FC4T3 created from a fresh DVD install when
it was first released.
If I click on Computer > Network, I see two icons - one for the windows
box named bjtpc on my LAN, and one for Windows Network. If I click on
Windows Network, I see an icon for our workgroup, named tool. If I
click on tool, I see another icon for bjtpc. If I click on either bjtpc
icon, I get icons for that computer's C drive and SharedDocs folder.
Clicking on the C drive share icon results in access to the folders.
Clicking on the SharedDocs folder results in an "infinite" hourglass
cursor. After the hourglass cursor begins, I cannot open any folders in
the C Drive share. It claims to be opening them, but nothing happens.
Logging out/in restores access to the C drive, but as soon as I click on
the SharedDocs folder, I can no longer access the C drive folder.
Clicking on the C drive folder then results in an "infinite" hourglass,
also.
Having SELinux permissive or enforcing makes no difference.
This operation all works correctly in Fedora Core 3 and in Ubuntu 5.04.
In Fedora Core 3, when accessing the first share, an Unlock Keyring
dialog appears into which I enter my password and then access to the
share is available. No such dialog is presented in FC4t3.
Anyone else seeing this, or does anyone have a clue on how to
successfully access the SharedDocs folder in FC4?
Thanks.

Why FC2? It is end of life. Why not wait a couple of weeks and use
FC4?

You can do this, it is easy. Just put your Yum repo in one directory
structure and the directory structure off the FC CDs in another. Share
them via NFS or FTP or HTTP.

Without stretching too hard, I can imagine a script which will push the
appropriate kernel and initrd.img out to each machine, modify lilo.conf,
run /sbin/lilo and reboot. The lilo.conf file would pass a URL to the
install kernel for the ks.cfg file, and upgrade the machine hands-free.

More info would be helpful - are all 400 servers identical, or close to
identical?
Thanks for the response Thomas, the reasoning for FC2 not 4 is simply,
fc2 is production ready (at least for me) and I need to begin the
upgrades as soon as possible. Once they are at fc2, itr rather trivial
to do a yum update to fc4 if that's desirable, I have tested that and it
works fairly well. As for the more info, well yes all 400 are basically
the same, 2U Boxx boxes with Intel 440GX Mb's dual PIII and 1G RAM, some
are hot swap, some arent, Adaptec SCSI controller, and same Intel 10/100
NIC. So hardware wise they are REALLY quite similar in nature.
I can do an NFS install FROM my yum repo just fine, that seems to be the
easy piece of this exercise - now time to learn more about KS. I have
been wanting to build a KS server for sometime (~5 years now) but havent
really had time, I have had to image all 750 boxes using
DD/Ghost/g4u/etc and have managed pretty well for the past 5 years. Now
its time to get more serious about mass imaging, as I am a thousand
miles away from the datacenter - I need this to be fairly brain-less -
so a NOC'ling can do the job with little intervention.

I had the exact same type of problem in FC4T2, I googled it and found it to
be pretty common. The solution is to replace your version of i2c.h with a
modified one that has proper function defs. Once I replaced it, I was able
to compile my new kernels. Give me some time and I will look for it again.
