Flash on Rawhide
by Brian Vuyk 20 Apr '09

20 Apr '09

I've been having some minor issues with the proprietary Flash on Rawhide (32-bit). It seems that whenever I make a flash file fullscreen, Firefox crashes. When running it through GDB, I get the following printed out just prior to the backtrace starting: *** glibc detected *** /usr/lib/firefox-3.1b3/firefox: free(): invalid pointer: 0xa4958b00 *** Is this possibly related to the recent malloc changes in glibc? I would like to get a sense of how many people are experiencing the same crash. From conversation with others in #fedora-qa, it seems to be pretty widespread. It can be easily tested by visiting any video site (youtube, megavideo etc.), opening a video, and clicking the 'enlarge' or 'fullscreen' button. I should note that I used this same version of Flash (10.0.22.87) with no fulllscreen issues on Ubuntu prior to beginning to test Rawhide. There is an existing bug in bugzilla about it, to which I've added my information. However, it doesn't seem to be drawing a lot of attention, and I think this is a fairly important bug to be quashed, since so many people use the proprietary flash. Here is the bugzilla link: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=477110 Brian

sound on my f11 beta laptop is incredibly unreliable
by Robert P. J. Day 20 Apr '09

20 Apr '09

at the moment, i'm trying to play a youtube video, but there is no sound, either from the built-in speakers or via the headphone jack, even though i've got volume cranked up everywhere (on the video itself, through pulseaudio, etc.) and every attempt to adjust volume through the pulse audio volume control ends up with an error dialog: "Connection failed: connection terminated." connection to what? if i knew that, i'd probably know how to fix this. module that needs to be loaded? rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.

Re: Audio in virtual machines
by J M 20 Apr '09

20 Apr '09

This is affecting KVM guests too, as far as I can tell. I just did a clean install of Fedora 10 x86_64, did a yum -y update, got KVM setup, and installed Fedora 11 Beta x86_64 as a guest. Sound is getting stuck repeating over and over again shortly after starting up. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=496714

How To Fix The Grub Splash Image
by Robert L Cochran 20 Apr '09

20 Apr '09

gimp Artwork-F11-grub.xpm.gz Click Image on the menu bar and then Mode and notice that Mode is set to 'RGB'. Click the radio button to select "Indexed..." instead. Under Color map, click the radio button for "Generate optimum palette", and under that change the maximum from 255 colors to 14. Click Convert. Click File...Save As... and rename the file to something else but keep the xpm.gz extension. For example, "Artwork-F11-v4-grub.xpm.gz". Accept the default Alpha threshold you are offered for XPM. su to root: su - change directory to /boot/grub: cd /boot/grub Copy (with cp) the newly created v4.grub.xpm.gz file to /boot/grub: cp /home/yourusername/Artwork-F11-v4-grub.xpm.gz . (If you mv it instead of cp it to be space efficient, I have a feeling you will run into trouble with SELinux labels.) Edit grub.conf with your favorite editor, and add the newly changed file to the splashimage line: splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/Artwork-F11-v4-grub.xpm.gz save grub.conf. If you use gedit or emacs or some similar editor, you will automatically get a backup file. exit from root: exit Restart the computer. That's it! Bob

Repeatable crash in KDE4 Dolphin
by Brian Vuyk 20 Apr '09

20 Apr '09

I found a fairly repeatable crash in the KDE4 version. I would like to see if others can trigger it before commending it to bugzilla. If I open root ('/') in dolphin, right click in the open space (below the file list) and select 'properties', dolphin immediately crashes. Can anyone else repeat this? Brian

About Workspace
by Angel Fish 20 Apr '09

20 Apr '09

Hello everyone, When I opening the firefox in Workspace1, then turn to Workspace2 and open the Terminal. While the Terminal is opening, turn back to Workspace1. As a result, Terminal is opened in Workspace1 only. It's the first time I use Fedora 10(also Linux), so I am not sure whether it's a bug or not. Do someone meet the same scene? PS:The Fedora is running on the Sun VirtualBox.

Eog doesn't display images
by Josep Puigdemont 20 Apr '09

20 Apr '09

Hi, I'm using rawhide with the latest updates. I've realized that eog, f-spot and gThumb can not display images, although it works with The Gimp and Firefox. I'd like to file a bug (unless this is an already known problem), but I'm not sure if I should file it on Gtk+, on each particular application, or if this is actually a graphics driver problem (I'm using nouveau). Could you give me some pointers? thanks! Br, Josep
