Issues using a USB mouse with X/Gnome?
by Philip Prindeville 03 Oct '05

03 Oct '05

I'm using FC3, with a Logitech Wireless Comfort Duo keyboard/mouse combination, through an IOGear IGS1734 VGA/USB KVM. The issue is the following. When I move the mouse, do an up/down mouse click, and then move the mouse, sometimes X (or Gnome) gets a little confused and thinks I'm doing a drag-and-drop (as if it saw the down-move-up events instead of down-up-move events coming from the mouse). Is this a common problem? Is there a simple fix like tweaking a threshold, etc. that I could make that would eliminate this occasional but irritating problem? Thanks, -Philip

Problem with the kernel 2.6.13-1.1526_FC4 and PPP
by Paul Smith 03 Oct '05

03 Oct '05

Dear All I have already post this on the pptpclient list, but it may be also useful to let Fedora Core community know about this. I have just updated the kernel to 2.6.13-1.1526_FC4, and now I cannot use pptpconfig, getting the following error: /usr/sbin/pppd: This system lacks kernel support for PPP. This could be because the PPP kernel module could not be loaded, or because PPP was not included in the kernel configuration. If PPP was included as a module, try `/sbin/modprobe -v ppp'. If that fails, check that ppp.o exists in /lib/modules/`uname -r`/net. See README.linux file in the ppp distribution for more details. pptpconfig: pppd process terminated by signal 4 (failed) pptpconfig: SIGILL Regards, Paul

Hi All, Quick question - is it possible to get access to the same virtual terminals through ssh as you would normally have access to using ctrl-alt-fx on the machine itself? Thanks, James.

CPU frequency.
by Strong 03 Oct '05

03 Oct '05

I want to optimize my kernel (2.6.12) to be at the lowest frequency when idle (to save power) and to be fully loaded when busy. I've read CPUfreq in the kernel doc still didn't understand how I should configure my kernel. As I understood it's possible to set it statically to the highest/lowest freq. and there are some programs called userspace ones that can control it dynamically but they got to have root permissions, so not many (almost all)... So what's the best decision here? -- Best regards, Strong.
