It is not clear in the release notes which modes are supported. I have just tried virtual resources - failed with unable to read package metadata, failure with a reference to repodata/comps.xml from anaconda Errno 256 I have just tried with physical resources - hangs loading a DAC960 driver, which is a RAID SCSI card.

KDE users can use the robust k3b package for these tasks." This incorrectly implies that you need to be a KDE user to use k3b, when, in fact, k3b is popular with many Gnome users. Similarly, GTK-based applications, like graveman, can be run within the KDE environment. It is not necessary to make a KDE versus Gnome distinction when selecting applications.

[Fedora Project Wiki] Update of "Docs/Beats/PackageNotes" by PaulFrields
by fedorawiki-noreply＠fedoraproject.org 22 Aug '07

22 Aug '07

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 PaulFrields: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Beats/PackageNotes?action=diff&rev2=107&… The comment on the change is: Per fedora-maintainers-list 2007-08-17 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The following sections contain information regarding software packages that have undergone significant changes for Fedora [[GetVal(DocsDict,BeatsVer)]]. For easier access, they are generally organized using the same groups that are shown in the installation system. - === PC Speaker Enabled === + === Utility Packages === - The PC speaker is enabled by default in this release, but can be circumvented in a number of ways: + The `cryptsetup-luks` package has been renamed to `cryptsetup`. - * Reduce its volume to a acceptable level or completely mute the PC speaker in `alsamixer` with the setting for "PC Speak". - * As the `root` user, disable the PC speaker system-wide by runing the following command in a console. - {{{ - su -c '/sbin/modprobe -r pcspkr ; echo "install pcspkr :" >>/etc/modprobe.conf' - }}} - - === Cdrtools Replaced By Cdrkit === - - Recent versions of `cdrtools` [http://lwn.net/Articles/195167/ intermix] code under the GPL and CDDL licenses, which are mutually incompatible. To avoid this problem, in this release `cdrtools` has been replaced by a fork called [http://www.cdrkit.org/ cdrkit]. Thanks to Joerg Jaspert (joerg AT debian.org) from Debian for initiating development of this software and [https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-advisory-board/2006-August/msg00409.… reaching out] to us. - - === EM8300 Drivers Default to ALSA === - - The default audio mode of the em8300 device support utilities and kernel modules (`em8300`, `kmod-em8300-*` packages) has changed from OSS to ALSA to follow upstream. However, numerous applications that support the em8300 still expect to find it in OSS mode. Users of these applications can use the `audio_driver=oss` option for the `em8300 module` in `/etc/modprobe.conf` to make the card use OSS for audio. - - === Gaim Renamed to Pidgin === - - The '''Gaim''' instant messenger has been [http://www.pidgin.im/index.php?id=177 renamed] to '''Pidgin''' to avoid possible trademark infringement issues. - - === Packages with ".fc6" Tag === - - There have not been any major changes in the toolchain in Fedora 7. Therefore, some packages in Fedora 7 might retain ".fc6" in the release tag if they have been inherited from the previous release without any changes. Fedora maintainers have not rebuilt these packages for Fedora 7 to avoid making end users download the packages for only a release tag change. This measure ensures that the robustness is not affected by any potential changes evoked by rebuilds. This naming of packages is merely cosmetic, and does not in any way affect the functionality of the software. - - === Perl Package Split === - - Development related files have been split up from Perl and are now available in the `perl-devel` package. As a temporary exception to the Fedora packaging guidelines, `perl` [https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2007-April/msg00886.html requires] `perl-devel` to avoid rebuilding some `perl` dependent packages late in the development cycle. During the next release cycle of Fedora, maintainers will split up the rest of the dependent packages. - - === Zope and Plone Not Yet Available === - - This release of Fedora includes Python 2.5, which does not support Zope. As a result, the `zope` and `plone` packages have been removed from this release. Work is underway to alleviate this problem for Zope 3, and possibly create a restricted Python 2.5 implementation of Zope 2. Refer to http://wiki.zope.org/zope3/Zope3UsingPython25 for additional information. Users who require the `zope` or `plone` packages are cautioned to plan appropriately, and use virtualized hosts or other methodologies to support their Zope and Plone needs. - - === Unstable liferea x86_64 Package === - - The `liferea` RSS/RDF feed reader has a known issue compiled for x86_64 platforms. This issue causes it to take 100% of the CPU time, becoming unresponsive. - As a workaround until the bug is found and fixed, remove the `liferea.x86_64` package from your system, then install the i386 version. This package requires the `firefox.i386` package as well. For more information, refer to this bug report: - - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=231073 - - === Xfce url opening focus issue === - - If you use the Xfce desktop and click on a URL to open it in your browser, the active browser window moves to your current workspace. - A hidden option named ActivateAction adjusts this behavior. Set this string value to 'bring' (default), 'switch' or 'none'. To add this option to your settings edit your - ~/.config/xfce4/mcs_settings/wmtweaks.xml file and add a line like the following: - - <option name="Xfwm/ActivateAction" type="string" value="none"/> - - The bring option moves your browser to your current workspace and focuses it. - The switch option moves you to the workspace with your browser in it and focuses it. - The none option opens the URL in your browser in the background and keeps your focus in the current application. - - Refer to http://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2961 for more information on this issue. - - === System Tools === - - ==== Yum kernel handling plugin ==== - - By default Fedora includes and enables a `yum` plugin package `yum-installonlyn`. This plugin retains the latest two kernels, including the one running, when you perform updates on your system. To tune this feature to retain more or fewer kernels, or disable it entirely, edit the `/etc/yum/pluginconf.d/installonlyn.conf` file. - - ==== apcupsd ==== - - The `apcupsd` package has been upgraded to version 3.14.0. This version removes the old master/slave networking mode. Refer to the [http://sourceforge.net/project/shownotes.php?group_id=54413&release_id=4856… apcupsd release notes] for more information. - - === Engineering and Scientific === - - ==== paraview ==== - - The `mpi` build and sub-package of `paraview` have been removed until `cmake` related build issues are resolved. - - === ATA over Ethernet === - - This release includes packages that support a kernel feature, providing ATA access over Ethernet. The packages are `aoetools`, the ATA over Ethernet tools, and `vblade`, a virtual EtherDrive blade daemon. - - === Graphics === - - ==== Handling of GIMP Plugins Contained in Other Packages ==== - - The GIMP package in Fedora includes a helper script `/usr/sbin/gimp-plugin-mgr` for plugins contained in other packages, for example, `xsane-gimp`. This script manages symlinks from the GIMP plugin directory (which may change between upgrades) to the actual location of the plugins. - - A bug has been fixed in the Fedora 7 release of GIMP that was in all older GIMP packages, including all those in the test releases. The bug concerns the execution order in which the symlinks are installed and removed, causing the symlinks to vanish when the GIMP package is updated. - - Although the GIMP package contained in the final release has the execution order fixed, due to the nature of the problem it will show up once more when updating from an affected version to a fixed version. To add these symlinks back in, run this command, providing the `root` password when prompted: - - {{{su -c "/usr/sbin/gimp-plugin-mgr --install '*'" - }}} -

Users can choose which virtualization platform to install, and use the same tools without regard to that choice. - Xen in Fedora [[GetVal(DocsDict,BeatsVer)]] is based on version 3.1.0. + Xen in Fedora [[GetVal(DocsDict,BeatsVer)]] is based on version ?? - KVM in Fedora [[GetVal(DocsDict,BeatsVer)]] is based on version 19-1. + KVM in Fedora [[GetVal(DocsDict,BeatsVer)]] is based on version ?? For more information on the differences between Xen and KVM, refer to http://virt.kernelnewbies.org/TechComparison. For more information on installing and using virtualization in Fedora [[GetVal(DocsDict,BeatsVer)]], refer to http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Fedora7VirtQuickStart. - - === Types of Virtualization === - - Using Xen, both paravirtualization and full virtualization can be implemented. Under KVM, only full virtualization is supported. Full virtualization requires a VT-capable processor. Paravirtualization does not require special hardware, but does require the guest OS to be modified. - - === Guest Operating Systems === - - The Fedora [[GetVal(DocsDict,BeatsVer)]] development team has tested Xen and KVM with Fedora Core 6, Fedora 7 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux versions 4.5 and 5.0 guests. Other guests have not been tested. With full virtualization, users can expect reasonable success with a large variety of operating systems, including some proprietary operating systems. === Changes to the Virtualization Packages === The following improvements have been made in the Virtualization packages in Fedora [[GetVal(DocsDict,BeatsVer)]]: + * Secure remote management of guest domains - * The applications {{{virt-manager}}} and {{{virsh}}} can now work with inactive domains. Previously, only {{{xm}}} could handle inactive domains. - * The mouse cursor problems with the virtual frame buffer have been fixed, for a better user experience in GUI modes. - * Miscellaneous other small improvements and fixes have been made. - * 32-bit paravirtualized guests can run on a 64-bit hypervisor. - * Fully virtualized guests support save, restore, and migration. - * When migrating guests, the guest config is saved on the destinaton host. - * The Xen `network-bridge` script does not use the `netloop` kernel module anymore. The default bridge device is now called `eth0` instead of `xenbr0`. The physical device is still renamed to `peth0`. - * The `virt-manager` utility provides a virtual networks enabling NAT for guests on laptops, instead of the Xen `network-bridge` script. - * The `virt-manager` utility is translated into more languages. - * The `virt-manager` can add and remove disks and interfaces to existing guests. - * The `virt-manager` utility provides progress feedback when downloading images, creating disks, and starting guests
