Kernel updates not "taking"
by Claude Jones 27 Jan '06

27 Jan '06

I brought this up yesterday, perhaps in the wrong thread. I have the 1826 and 1878 kernels. Yesterday, I had the 1872 and 1826. When the 1872 was installed, it never was offered as an option at startup. If I'd tap the keyboard to get the list, 1872 was not there. After boot-up, I see the kernel in /boot and it is listed in menu.lst and grub.conf. Samething again this am - my machine is updated to 1878. I see messages about 1872 being removed. 1878 is now in /boot and is listed in menu.lst and grub.conf. BUT, on startup, it is not in the list - only 1826 is offered... Anyone know what's up? -- Claude Jones Bluemont, VA, USA

Printers: lprm - and cancel -a
by George Hill 27 Jan '06

27 Jan '06

When I try to remove all my jobs from the print queue with lprm - or cancel -a I get the following message and respond with my password over and over. CONTROL-C does not abort -- I need to kill from another terminal. Password for george on localhost? <my response> Password for george on localhost? <my response> Password for george on localhost? <my response> ... I can remove the jobs one at a time, no problem. I am up to date with the latest upgrades for FC5t2. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? Thanks. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Fedora floating screensaver stutters
by n0dalus 27 Jan '06

27 Jan '06

Hi, Since FC doesn't come with much 3d hardware acceleration support, is it a bit too much to assume that computers will be able to run the default screensaver? I have a very good computer and it is still very jerky when running the screensaver. I'm sure installing Nvidia/Radeon drivers would fix this but since Fedora doesn't come with them, I think we should either work to make the screensaver faster, or choose a different default for FC5. What do other people think about this? Do other people experience this slowness? n0dalus.

keyboard lost
by Tom 27 Jan '06

27 Jan '06

While I've been a Linux user for well over a decade, I've only been usin Fedora (fc5-t2, updated daily) for less than a week. For the past 8 years I've run Mandriva (cooker, also daily updated). Currently I dual boot, sharing /boot, swap an a few /stor partitions, all ext3. This mornin I was using the fc5 system (my new default ;) for about an hour when the keyboard stopped workin. The system runs 24/7. Log out, an back in as root, the keyboard was working. So I created another user. Loggin into that user, the keyboard was workin. All the same after a shutdown, an reboot. Any ideas as to what happened? I don't have a clue. This was before FC5 updates this mornin. I had an idle root term open on desktop4, I had pan d/l'g an archive (which I do again now), an had just started to read my mail in kmail when the kybd died. -- Tom Brinkman Corpus Christi, Texas
