[Bug 200214] [ml_IN] Texts as Heading, are cutting from the upper portion

by Red Hat Bugzilla

Please do not reply directly to this email. All additional comments should be made in the comments box of this bug report. Summary: [ml_IN] Texts as Heading, are cutting from the upper portion https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=200214 ------- Additional Comments From cchance(a)redhat.com 2006-08-28 03:03 EST ------- .po files have no properties regarding font layouts so it would be irrelevant. In the fedora-release package, there are some .css files located in "css" directory which specifies the layout of the contents. Modifying "layout.css" might solves the padding problem. If not, it would be useful to look at the remaining .css files within the same directory. There are also some .py files in fedora-release package and firstboot package that could be referenced if modification on .css could not fix the problem. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

[Fedora Project Wiki] Update of "Docs/Beats/Kernel" by RahulSundaram

by fedorawiki-noreply＠fedoraproject.org

Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Fedora Project Wiki" for change notification. The following page has been changed by RahulSundaram: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Beats/Kernel The comment on the change is: gfs is included within the main kernel package now. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Issue the {{{make}}} command to build the `foo.ko` module. - - == User Space Dependencies on the Kernel == - - Fedora Core [[GetVal(DocsDict,BeatsVer)]] has support for clustered storage through the Global File System (GFS). GFS requires special kernel modules that work in conjunction with some user-space utilities, such as management daemons. To remove such a kernel, perhaps after an update, use the {{{su -c 'yum remove kernel-<version>'}}} command instead. The {{{yum}}} command automatically removes dependent packages, if necessary. -
