If you are not including drivers for D-link or Realtek or other Wireless cards then You should include Ndiswrap for many people wireless is the only choice (available at the moment of installation )to connect to the Internet many people do not have a dial-up account. --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?

Sorry to bitch..... but I'm desperate for help
by Arthur Pemberton 30 Sep '06

30 Sep '06

I have been to the following for help with this problem - fedora-list (mailing list) - video4linux (mailing list) - #fedora (irc) - #v4l (irc) - #mythtv-users (irc) I've filed the following bug reports: - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=197424 - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=206829 To summarise, my tv card gets no sound with any 2.6.17.* Fedora kernel. When I installed FC5, things works flawlessly. The following factors make fixing this problem ASAP a big deal for me 1) This is my only cable tv viewing device 2) At some point some upgrade, wounded my binary blob Nvidia drivers, which my system had come to rely on. Now everything is sluggish, and colors on my my PVR software, MythTV are all messed up. 3) Most importantly to me, FC6 is coming. And I'm pretty sure I won't be having any 2.6.17 kernels in it. If I can't fix this problem....I will miss out on FC6 for who knows how long, and I've been hearing good things about it. The top two pieces of advice I have received so far, and attempted are to: 1) use v4lctl to verify all settings on the card 2) compile v4l from http://linuxtv.org/ Niether has worked. While I do not expect someone here to just tell me exactly what to do to fix the problem, I am hoping you all can advise me on how best to go about finding a solution. Many thanks.

FC6Pre images relelased!
by Will Woods 29 Sep '06

29 Sep '06

Hello! As promised, we have pushed FC6 prerelease images to the trackers: http://torrent.fedoraproject.org/ The following install-blocking bugs have been tested and should be fixed in these images: #206876: GRUB claims initrd is too big for memory on x86_64 #206453: installed x86_64/ppc system missing initrd, cannot boot #206202: Anaconda traceback during lvcreate on ppc64 #206913: Anaconda exception on upgrade from FC5 #208080: ahci/ata_piix mixup causes Anaconda to not find SATA disks This is not a complete list of bugs fixed, just some of the most troublesome installer bugs from Test3. There *is* a known bug when trying to install using Fedora Extras in this release. Luckily we already have a fix for it that you can use with these images! Just follow the directions here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Anaconda/Updates You can get the update image from here: http://people.redhat.com/~katzj/updates-fc6pre.img This will also help us test the Anaconda Update code, so if you're thinking of using Extras, please give it a shot! Another note: the keyboard won't work in firstboot. The mouse is fine, though, so you can click your way through. I believe we already have a fix for this, but it just didn't make it in time for this release. Enjoy the updated images, and happy testing. Be sure to keep your newly-installed FC6pre systems up to date and keep on testing as we make the final push towards the release of FC6! -w

The keyring password annoyance
by Denis Leroy 29 Sep '06

29 Sep '06

A good many bugs were filed against this already (174467,172555 and duplicates). I find it a great annoyance having to enter 2 passwords instead of 1 to log into my desktop system (the login + the NetworkManager keyring access). Since a great many people use encrypted wifi, I have a feeling this is going to cause a barrage of complaints when FC6 is out. Are there plans to try to address this problem before FC6 is out ? 174467 mentions this is a hard problem to solve system-wide (shared key across all users), but I think we should tackle one problem at a time, and at least preventing the dual password on a per-user basis is the first step. There is a recently orphaned package in Extras called pam_keyring that apparently addresses this. Should it be considered for inclusion into Core and enabled by default ? -denis

compiz and xinerama
by Thomas J. Baker 29 Sep '06

29 Sep '06

Anyone else running a dual head setup with compiz? I've found a few problems related to compiz apparently not being xinerama aware. Window placement and maximize, the plane plugin, and gnome-screensaver unlock dialog missing seem to be affected. Please add anything to this bug if you have an xinerama setup. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=208417 tjb -- ======================================================================= | Thomas Baker email: tjb(a)unh.edu | | Systems Programmer | | Research Computing Center voice: (603) 862-4490 | | University of New Hampshire fax: (603) 862-1761 | | 332 Morse Hall | | Durham, NH 03824 USA http://wintermute.sr.unh.edu/~tjb | =======================================================================

r1000 network driver
by dragoran 29 Sep '06

29 Sep '06

Why is this driver (gpl) not part of (fedoras) kernel? I got a notebook with a card that required this driver and I was unable to do a network install (forced to burn and use media) because networking was not possible (no drivers) any change of getting it into the kernel? Should I file a bug? It only needs a simple patch to compile with 2.6.17/18
