Animatated gifs in OOo (rawhide)
by Paul F. Johnson 25 Feb '06

25 Feb '06

Hi, I've created an OOimpress presentation which contains a couple of animated gifs. I used the clipart/text frame format and wiped the text frame. If I just have the slides in the designer, I can see the animation. As soon as I try and display presentation, the images remain static. I have the "allow animations" option selected in the slide settings. Any ideas on how to get animated gifs to work in OOimpress?

Automatic and timed login won't work in FC5 test 3
by Stanton Finley 24 Feb '06

24 Feb '06

In FC5T3 happened to the timed and automatic login features we have in FC4? When I go to "System" > "Administration" > "Login Screen", on the "Security" tab tick the check box for "Enable Timed Login", and then try to select a user in the "User:" drop down box there are no users available or if I type a user in that box it won't accept it.

Send CLA broken?

Would some please help me off-list: https://admin.fedora.redhat.com/accounts/send-cla.cgi The "accouting system" says my ID is unknown. PS - I didn't want to post to the list but I feel strange pestering project people directly. At least this way if no one wants to help me I can take a hint. :-) -- WC Jones -- http://youve-reached-the.endoftheinternet.org/

can't get beagle to index simple text files
by Brian Millett 24 Feb '06

24 Feb '06

I am running rawhide, latest 20060224 updates. I have setup beagle to start indexing automatically and to index my home dir. It has accumulated a lot of indexes [bpm]$ du -sh .beagle/ 520M .beagle/ But I know that I have many plain ascii text files. One in particular I know that there is only one reference to a name "hagoth". Beagle searching tells me that "hagoth" can not be found. I can find anything in any evolution email. What is the trick? Thanks. -- Brian Millett - [ Londo and Garibaldi, "A Voice in the Wilderness I"] "The next day, I woke up.

Testing Request
by Jesse Keating 24 Feb '06

24 Feb '06

Seems that when upgrading from FC3 to FC4, cups-lpd dissapeared. I'd like to make sure this doesn't happen for FC4 to FC5 or FC3 to FC5. Can one of you do an install of FC4 that includes cups-lpd, and attempt to use anaconda to upgrade to FC5Test3 (or current rawhide) and see if cups-lpd continues to exist? Please comment in: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=164100 NOTE: Do not comment about other upgrade problems, just specifically cups-lpd. -- Jesse Keating Release Engineer: Fedora

Problems with Fedora Core 5 Test 3
by Roni M. Oliva 24 Feb '06

24 Feb '06

Hello everyone, I have just downloaded FC5 test 3 and after burning the CD's, I started to install. Booting up with the CD was not a problem, but I received an "exited abnormally" message. I have trouble with this as I have not had problems in the past testing out the FC tests on my live machine. I just install and when the final release comes out I perform a clean install while I preserve the partitions where my data reside. My hardware is quite "old": Supermicro PDGE6, with two 500Mhz PIII, one half gif of RAM and lots of disk space. My video card is also quite old, but works well for me, it is an Nvidia GeForce 2 MX. Question is: Has anyone else had problems with abnormal exit during the installation of FC5 test 3? Thanks in advance .. -- Roni "The person who says it cannot be done should not interrupt the person who is doing it." -Chinese Proverb

Is Core5 ready
by Leslie S Satenstein 24 Feb '06

24 Feb '06

A concerned tester. I asked this question, since, from day 1 of core 5 (test1). The Canadian French Keyboard definition as implemented is wrong, the good definition is in Core4. When will the good definition be transfered to Core5? It was in Bugzilla. So, if you cannot use the keyboard without buying a second one, what is the point of going live. Do you think that by closing the list of open bugs, without verifying if each bug was corrected, was a wise decision? It is one that I cannot accept. Therefore, when Core5 goes live, perhaps optimistically too soon, I will not be one to be on the bleeding edge. I would prefer to see a delay, until each bug that was on the list as of Feb 16th is resolved. Leslie Celebrating my 40th year in IT.

Fedora Core 4 Test Update: glibc-2.3.6-2
by Jakub Jelinek 24 Feb '06

24 Feb '06

--------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Test Update Notification FEDORA-2006-127 2006-02-24 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Product : Fedora Core 4 Name : glibc Version : 2.3.6 Release : 2 Summary : The GNU libc libraries. Description : The glibc package contains standard libraries which are used by multiple programs on the system. In order to save disk space and memory, as well as to make upgrading easier, common system code is kept in one place and shared between programs. This particular package contains the most important sets of shared libraries: the standard C library and the standard math library. Without these two libraries, a Linux system will not function. --------------------------------------------------------------------- * Thu Feb 23 2006 Jakub Jelinek <jakub(a)redhat.com> 2.3.6-2 - revert removal of i386/bits/string.h - avoid __sched_yield PLT slot in libc.so - revert interruptible aio_suspend changes * Thu Feb 23 2006 Jakub Jelinek <jakub(a)redhat.com> 2.3.6-1 - selective update from CVS - fixed glibc BZ numbers: 56, 71, 119, 162, 195, 278, 281, 297, 305, 305, 315, 367, 394, 395, 428, 448, 451, 484, 486, 488, 491, 493, 495, 516, 520, 524, 525, 527, 529, 532, 533, 545, 566, 588, 627, 644, 652, 657, 662, 663, 665, 666, 667, 668, 704, 704, 713, 714, 804, 808, 811, 826, 838, 865, 865, 870, 933, 968, 980, 981, 982, 1010, 1033, 1035, 1047, 1051, 1053, 1061, 1078, 1158, 1188, 1207, 1221, 1224, 1228, 1230, 1231, 1248, 1249, 1252, 1252, 1253, 1253, 1254, 1254, 1261, 1294, 1302, 1318, 1331, 1346, 1347, 1358, 1361, 1363, 1373, 1384, 1392, 1392, 1395, 1405, 1423, 1429, 1438, 1458, 1459, 1460, 1466, 1468, 1498, 1534, 1548, 1566, 1579, 1774, 1877, 1877, 1913, 1920, 1925, 1952, 1955, 1960, 1962, 1978, 1997, 2066, 2080, 2126, 2153, 2173, 2226, 2268 - adjust nptl_db for dtv_t changes from -2.16 (#179165) - fix setuid etc. hangs on i?86 if some thread exits during the call (#167766) - don't cache euid/egid in euidaccess - avoid unnecessary socket read in nscd client code if hostname has no aliases - fix do_ypcall in case of memory allocation failure - fix bindresvport to really try more ports if range 600 .. 1023 is full (#173837) - remove nonnull attribute from ctermid prototype - NIS+ fixes - updated several locales - added various IBM encodings for iconv - many other fixes, too many to list here --------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be downloaded from: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/testing/4/ 003af204031780f625ba2ec88c40fcc7543ce7f7 SRPMS/glibc-2.3.6-2.src.rpm 015be9e5de1a44b687cf8582bd7cc3bd22a45cb9 ppc/glibc-2.3.6-2.ppc.rpm 657e79bf9bd4e7621ebf24b3b5258d32569c8b27 ppc/glibc-devel-2.3.6-2.ppc.rpm f3ab1dbf26b8c1c571c23e5674407243b3fdaa95 ppc/glibc-headers-2.3.6-2.ppc.rpm 2af8fb4d83edce669913b39972fceadc1994e14d ppc/linuxthreads-devel-2.3.6-2.ppc.rpm 114b4844b9ed333d02509b07d6def46b440c6a0e ppc/glibc-profile-2.3.6-2.ppc.rpm 510825da1f189ea46a1c27ff22cb6e001cb0f81c ppc/glibc-common-2.3.6-2.ppc.rpm 62e0216d3af520ee4a1e98ae154eeb003a01271f ppc/nscd-2.3.6-2.ppc.rpm 490317e9876ebcba94601463ab4760646fb974fb ppc/glibc-utils-2.3.6-2.ppc.rpm 6f886f8a8b0a9421890839b9c1b6bf45e943e995 ppc/debug/glibc-debuginfo-2.3.6-2.ppc.rpm 84804af20470c2845dd0f8ccd3f22899ffd965a2 x86_64/glibc-2.3.6-2.x86_64.rpm 62ed8f734bcc9ff2909df7860134f4f96bae3572 x86_64/glibc-devel-2.3.6-2.x86_64.rpm d226e6bd9a614fa8a83605b2d1733b44978f5b75 x86_64/glibc-headers-2.3.6-2.x86_64.rpm d2382f68c08790b6c93134fae3f322bd30f3c4d4 x86_64/linuxthreads-devel-2.3.6-2.x86_64.rpm 3f8d81ccd4f2dbe4326cb28d10356737d613709c x86_64/glibc-profile-2.3.6-2.x86_64.rpm f633e5f6c39a2b57f3c674f3e6ebd428ce82c185 x86_64/glibc-common-2.3.6-2.x86_64.rpm d9fea7acfa04ba7267269e559689a309df330f22 x86_64/nscd-2.3.6-2.x86_64.rpm 8eecc5d754808d780eba133ded2a3ba8d245389e x86_64/glibc-utils-2.3.6-2.x86_64.rpm a5c0df086ff005868951896f5af76520df915f15 x86_64/debug/glibc-debuginfo-2.3.6-2.x86_64.rpm 7a80ec36b0a3ab5b290a6ed4aaf72c0c041ad24e i386/glibc-2.3.6-2.i386.rpm 4470e10debb5ccd12ec7fcfed71fd6d957d94814 i386/glibc-devel-2.3.6-2.i386.rpm f782f632eada186dcbb5e3928ec49be896c86c38 i386/glibc-headers-2.3.6-2.i386.rpm b57de4e54d6110a115da340cc5ad5ca76b97bed9 i386/linuxthreads-devel-2.3.6-2.i386.rpm 77e533ea97557eb6aba9445e6431f3ec64ab17ac i386/glibc-profile-2.3.6-2.i386.rpm 34734fbae282954b76331483e8641e7fb9639eb1 i386/glibc-common-2.3.6-2.i386.rpm 7766683cc177eb166b28f9f266c3b8fe0b9d586b i386/nscd-2.3.6-2.i386.rpm e94680f9646a49e15a12e138ad47b2de98a4f0ae i386/glibc-utils-2.3.6-2.i386.rpm 9c60440f399375671f787e25a2126b0251065fd2 i386/debug/glibc-debuginfo-2.3.6-2.i386.rpm 9c4b000fa5c02c831e4847f366e5aed123020d2c i386/debug/glibc-debuginfo-common-2.3.6-2.i386.rpm 5bd327414b81cbf0f16d6963b9774097c9415c4e i386/glibc-2.3.6-2.i686.rpm 34ebc2933ca2454fb7e17b39c9ffee33ca84e441 i386/debug/glibc-debuginfo-2.3.6-2.i686.rpm This update can be installed with the 'yum' update program.

REQUEST FOR TESTERS: xorg-x11-fonts-7.0-2
by Mike A. Harris 24 Feb '06

24 Feb '06

I've built new xorg-x11-fonts packages to attempt to resolve bug #173875. The new packages seem to resolve the issue fine for me with local testing. However, since this changes the encodings.dir files which all invocations of mkfontdir and mkfontscale use, it is possible that these changes at least theoretically could change the way that fonts.dir files get generated. It is thus theoretically possible that people's fonts could disappear, or that some other unexpected results could occur after updating to the new font packages. As such, since FC5 is very close, in line with keeping risks to a minimum this late in the cycle, I want to get as many people as possible to upgrade to the new font packages and provide feedback before I consider putting them into rawhide. Please download the following font rpms, and upgrade to all of them with "rpm -Uvh *.rpm" and report back any error messages that occur, or any problems that occur after upgrading to the new packages. Please reboot your system so that xfs, the X server, and whatnot are all completely restarted to maximize the testing benefit. xorg-x11-fonts-7.0-2 is now available for download via ftp at the following URL: ftp://people.redhat.com/mharris/testing/unstable Additionally, I have put a diff of the spec file changes I've made in a file attachment in the bug. Peer review of the changes are also appreciated. The idea here is to try to avoid last minute catastrophes from entering the fray. Your help in testing this is greatly appreciated. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=173875 Thanks in advance. -- Mike A. Harris, Systems Engineer, X11 Development team, Red Hat Canada, Ltd.
