error messages with today's rawhide updates ...(04 SEP. 03)
by Elton Woo 04 Sep '03

04 Sep '03

I get the following errors installing some updates from rawhide: "^ Content list file does not exist, is not readable, or is not well-formed XML: /var/lib/scrollkeeper/it/scrollkeeper_cl.xml /var/lib/scrollkeeper/it/scrollkeeper_cl.xml:1: error: Document is empty ^ /var/lib/scrollkeeper/it/scrollkeeper_cl.xml:1: error: Start tag expected, '<' not found" (repeated several times) AND more importantly this one when upgrading the kernel ( I should have used rpm -ivh, instead of -Uvh with the kernel-athlon package, but <*shrug*> it's too late: "5:kernel ########################################### [ 56%] depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.22-20.1.2024.2.36.nptl/kernel/net/bluetooth/cmtp/cmtp.o depmod: detach_capi_driver_Rf5f7d0de depmod: attach_capi_driver_R61677334" About to logout, reboot and see what happens...

Please add exim
by Neal D. Becker 04 Sep '03

Please add exim. I have prepared an rpm package and can send the spec if anyone is interested. It is easy to add since we have "alternatives" so that sendmail, postfix, and exim can all co-exist.

Disk config tool?
by Neal D. Becker 04 Sep '03

04 Sep '03

I'm running beta1 with kde desktop. I didn't find any gui disk config tool (basically, something to edit fstab for you). Is there such a beast? Shouldn't it be easy to find?

gnome desktop is *still* unusable after rawhide update.
by Elton Woo 04 Sep '03

04 Sep '03

How do I capture error dialogs in Nautilus? I've recently updated from rawhide, and when I login, I get error messages to the effect that gnome settings cannot be saved, because ****** .... etc. I have to logout of Gnome via CTRL-ALT-DEL. KDE is working fine, and it's from *this* desktop that I'm sending this message.

False alarm: Abuse of RHN Service?
by nosp 04 Sep '03

04 Sep '03

Didn't see anything like this in the archives, so I was wondering if anyone had gotten this error from up2date (severn, up2date-3.9.19-2): --- up2date_client.up2dateErrors.AbuseError: Error Message: Abuse of Service detected for server XXXXX (nnnnnnnnnn) Error Class Code: 49 Error Class Info: You are getting this error because RHN has detected an abuse of service from this system and account. This error is triggered when your system makes too many connections to Red Hat Network. This error can not be triggered under a normal use of the Red Hat Network service as configured by default on Red Hat Linux. The Red Hat Network services for this system will remain disabled until you will reduce the RHN network traffic from your system to acceptable limits. Please log into RHN and visit https://rhn.redhat.com/help/contact.pxt to contact technical support if you think you have received this message in error. --- I am updating one PC (my only RHN-registered machine) from the severn updates channel and have had up2date crash a few times but don't think I've generated THAT much activity. I AM trying to download a lot of updated packages (updates + src rpms total probably about 500), however. My account doesn't actually seem disabled in any way (system not marked as bad in RHN, can still dl packages, log in to RHN website, etc.). The FAQ warnings (https://rhn.redhat.com/help/faq/policy.pxt) appear not to have come to pass (great). I'll take this up with rhn-users if no one's seen it. Just thought I'd ask here first since the beta community are likely to be the heaviest users (pkgs/system-wise). Anyone seen this? Thanks, Martin

VMware working with RH beta?
by Hoyt 03 Sep '03

03 Sep '03

Has anyone had luck installing the beta on VMware (I have 4.0.2 build-5592). It keeps crashing for me during the install right after detecting the disk drives; noprobe does not help. Other OS's (even SkyOS) will run OK. Advice? Thanks, Hoyt

Show package download size in up2date?
by Steven Haigh 03 Sep '03

03 Sep '03

After pulling down a few updates last night, I had a thought that it would be handy if up2date told the user how big each package that it's going to download (maybe during an 'up2date -l'?) and the progess bars when the actual download is going state something like 'package name #### 120k/sec 1:02 left 2.8/10Mb' At present, from using the up2date cmd line, there's no way to tell how big the packages are - unless I'm overlooking a simple option (possible!).. -- Signed, Steven Haigh http://wireless.org.au (Visit https://wireless.org.au to install our Root Certificate.)

online article: "how to upgrade to the 2.6 kernel"
by Robert P. J. Day 03 Sep '03

03 Sep '03

for those who have been following the 2.6 kernel thread(s) for the last little while, there's a reference from linuxtoday.com to an online article: http://kerneltrap.org/node/view/799 it's not strictly beta-related, but that's where most of the discussion has been, so i thought i'd mention it here. rday
