FC3T1 kernel panics if "apm=on" set in kernel params
by Ben Steeves
Has anyone seen this before?
If I add "apm=on" to my kernel params, FC3T1 (kernel 2.6.7-1.509 )
kernel panics on startup with an "exit of init failed!!!: 14" message,
and then locks solid with "Attempted to kill init!".
If I remove "apm=on", it boots fine.

Mozilla problem having gone to selinux
by Paul F. Johnson
Hi,
Everything with the exception of one application seems to work since I
moved to selinux on the fc3t1 box.
I've done /sbin/fixfiles relabel and all seems okay.
However, if I run Mozilla, something odd happens.
I first off get asked to select a profile and if I select the default
user (the only one available), I get the error
Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)
[nsIProfileInternal.currentProfile]
I can create a new profile, but that still returns the same error.
There is nothing wrong with Moz as such as if I mv .mozilla .moz and
restart, everything works as it should.
Any ideas on how to fix this one?

FC3 T1 Raid Installs
by Si Jones
I have done 2 installs, the first time i did a install with software
raid 1 and
the second i used a boot part of raid 1 and the other partitions were
raid 0.
The first attempt of the first install went wrong as I reboot after
installing,
and the raid array had not synced the mirror, the second attempt I left
it to
sync and rebooted and it was fine.
My comment on this one is, could anaconda be modified to make it wait
until the array is synced, as I think this is a bit of a flaw?
The second install went perfect, the striped array seems to give 80mb
a sec.
The hardware is sil3114, with 2 SATA Seagates on an nforce2
motherboard, I would like to know if Tagged Command Queueing
is working if anyone knows how to check this?
and lastly, I have striped array for the swap but need to change it over
as the kernel does a better job of handling the swap over 2 disks, how
do I delete the raid and change the swap over?
Cheers,

Current top display
by Harry Putnam
Sorry but I'm not sure where to post this question.
Its really a basic help question but I'm running
FC3T1 so not sure the display of top is the same elsewhere.
But to cut to the chase... I've never been able to find in the man
page or the onboard top help (accessed with ?) what the abbreviations
in the summary area mean. Particularly the line with percentages.
Some are self explanatory but to me... not many
I'm talking about this line(wrapped for mail):
Cpu(s): 0.7% us, 1.0% sy, 0.0% ni, 98.3% id, 0.0% wa,
0.0% hi, 0.0% si
I've listed the actual fields and my interpretation, or lack of it,
under them:
0.7% us, 1.0% sy, 0.0% ni, 98.3% id, 0.0% wa, \
[ user system ? idle ?(wait)
0.0% hi, 0.0% si
? ? ]

Multiple automakes
by Paul F. Johnson
Hi,
Has the ability to use multiple versions of automake/autoconf vanished
in FC2/FC3t1?
I'm trying to compile scribus (www.scribus.net) which needs automake 1.7
and FC3t1 registers 1.9.1 (which won't cut it unfortunately).
Any ideas?

Re: Graphical greeter
by Paul F. Johnson
Hi,
I've created a gdm greeter using the instructions at
http://www.jirka.org/gdm-documentation/x1259.html
I have created a tar.gz, but gdm complains that there isn't a
GdmGreeterTheme.info file, though that is not listed anywhere as being
required.
I have also copied the directory and while the login config recognises
the theme as being valid, when I select it and then try to log back in,
I don't get the theme I have created.
As this may be my fault, I've not entered this into bugzilla.
Does anyone have any advice?

Re: yum seems to have forgotten what an update is
by t l
Yup, we know that there are new rpms there.....
But check
download.fedora.redhat.com:/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/i386/headers/header.info
you'll see it hasn't been updated since 4-Aug.

We can hope that someone is fixing the build/mirroring process.
