[Fedora-electronic-lab-list] Problem in configuring network and Touchpad
by himanshu lad
Friends
I have a problem with setting up network in FEL10. I am unable to set the
IP,Netmask,Default gateway,.... manually.In my college it defaults to the
setings provided by DHCP servers in the COMPUTER department which is used
for their experiments and is somehow not configure to work with internet,
implies my FEL installation does not have internet connection .
Also I am used to set right click in the top right corner of the touchpad,
in FEL9 I had configured the xorg.conf to behave in desired fashion . FEL 10
doesnot have a xorg.conf file.
Please help......

Hello Jeffrey,
The minimum size of is 2 GB, however I would recommended you at least
8 GB. The reason behind this is sometimes, designers can be too huge
that it needs a lot of space to simulate and debug.
Could you please tell us why you need a mentor? If it is related to
electronics, I believe Fedora Electronic Lab's mailing list is
appropriate. Else Fedora mentor's mailing lists.

Hi Svilen,
I tried running toped on Fedora 10 and obtained the following error -
"Toped can't obtain required GLX Visual. Check your video driver/setup
please"
My laptop has a nvidia graphics card.
On searching i found the links which suggest the following workaround.
to add the below lines to xorg.conf -
Section ServerLayout"
Option "GlxVisuals" "all"
EndSection
it didn't work.
I tried running toped on a system with ATI graphics card running Fedora 10,
it too
initially threw the above error but the workaround got it running.
Please do suggest as to how i can solve this problem.
Regards,
Sandesh

[Fedora-electronic-lab-list] Embedded SIG ( Re:Including RTEMS in FEL)
by Chitlesh GOORAH
Hello dear Embedded SIG,
We have received many requests from users for more embedded support on
fedora. My knowledge in this field is limited and thereby I'm reaching
to you.
Currently, at Fedora, we have Fedora-Electronic-Lab, Fedora Arm and
Fedora Embedded all focussing on different kind of electronics. The
actual status is FEL and F-arm have a mailing list and leaving
Embedded SIG on "one on one" contact. But F-arm mailing list does not
have any traffic. Thereby I'm inviting you to join FEL mailing list
https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-electronic-lab-list
in hope to join forces and provide a better design and simulation
platform on fedora.
During FOSDEM, I talked to Max and Greg requesting them to get someone
inside RH to include eCos on fedora. However it is not very clear for
many people in terms of embedded where is the limit. Is it only design
tools or should provide an additional OS ? This question has popped
several times and needs your input to clarify our roadmap.
Kind regards,
Chitlesh

[Fedora-electronic-lab-list] fel10 or f10 or sl5.4
by g
i have run into problems in getting f10 installed and fully functional,
all of which is not that relative, but brings me to questions.
my intent was to use f10 for every day use, internet, personal booking,
music, videos, etc, and running fel additions.
i am considering a fresh install of f10 because i have not set it up for
any 'personal' yet. if basic is not working, why fight desired.
after some thought, i began to wonder how problems would be if i used
fel10 for fresh install.
so,
if i install fel10, will i have same/similar problems as with f10?
if i install fel10, will i have same/similar features as with f10?
if i install fel10, will i have same updates as with f10 or do i
need to make additions to repos list?
if i install fel10, should i use f10 support list for basic problems?
i also use scientific linux 5.4 for internet and email. if i install
sl 5.4 for a main system, will all of fel work with sl5.4?
suggestions? pointers? links?
tia.

Hello Jeff,
Please accept my apologies for not replying earlier.
Indeed 40Meg is too small. I would recommend you to use our new Fedora
USB feature [1].
The idea behind the Fedora USB feature is to allow anyone to create
liveusb stick based on Fedora iso. Hence you can have your FEL in your
usbstick and walk with it anywhere you want. There is also a small
windows software[2] to create such liveusb image. The wiki page [2]
describes how to create such liveusb disk.
Using the persistant mode you can even save your data on the usb stick.
I invite you to join our mailing list [3].
Happy Chip design with your usbstick.

[Fedora-electronic-lab-list] Retire Alliance RPMS on non ILP32 platforms
by Mukund Sivaraman
Hi Chitlesh
I advise you to retire Alliance RPMS from non ILP32 distributions such
as x86_64. Alliance code has behavioural problems which manifest
themselves on such platforms. There are no compile-time warnings for
some of these issues, and tools can behave in a non-deterministic
manner.
We are fixing these problems as we find them in Herb, but it will still
be a while before Herb releases are made.

Hello there,
I have many users complaining a specific application "toped" is
failing under ati based graphic cards.
" Toped can't obtain required GLX Visual. Check your video driver/setup please"
I would appreciate if you could have a look at it and give us (on
fedora electronic lab mailing list) some pointers how to fix it.
Upstream of "toped" is active and willing to get some clue how to fix
it.
Currently F10 and as well ubuntu users suffers from this issue.
This application also fails on my laptop so I can serve as a guinea
pig to find a possible fix.

Hi Aanjhan,
Its been sometime since we met at GnuGrazing the lasttime.
Currently I have few months in hand and am looking to get involved in
some foss project especially
some sort of internship (something like NRCFOSS, etc.).
So in order to clear my confusions. I started looking at projects
starting from my little skill set.
>From my experience at SoftJin, I know little C++, Verilog, understand
synthesis and routing on fpga, and

I came across FEL which you are involved in. So can you please guide
me regarding this matter, as to
whether I can get involved in this project or some other project you
are aware of else kindly redirect me to
some mentors you know who can help me with this matter.
