Re: problem after updating to libvirt-0.2.2-2.fc7
by Amit Rana
Hi,
I am not quite sure what you mean by guest being windows. It was just
my laptop (running fct4) and it was trying to get IP from broadband
modem/router. Where does windows guest come into picture :) sorry very
limited knowledge in this area. Does linux also support APIPA?
>So it seems now it is all ok with latest libvirt version, isn't it?
Yes, all is working fine now with latest libvirt.
Thanks,
Amit.

Re: problem after updating to libvirt-0.2.2-2.fc7
by Amit Rana
Hi,
Thanks for the response.
I copied output of the ifconfig/route/brctl in 0.2.2-1 and then
updated to 0.2.2-2 but noticed that everything is working fine.
Yesterday I was getting some 169... IP although I am supposed to get
192.168.0.10x hence I was not able to get on the network or access
internet. After googling a bit and looking at all the packages
released on that day I assumed I am having virbr0 related problem
hence downgraded to 0.2.2-1 and all worked fine.
I was not doing anything related to networks, I was just fighting to
get my X to work because of xorg-1.3 bug introduced on the same day.
Thanks again for the response.
Regards,
Amit.

Laptop not booting under the 2.6.20-1.3036 kernel
by Paul F. Johnson
Hi,
I've installed and updated my son's laptop using the F7T3 dvd and it
refuses to boot. It gets past grub, starts to load vmlinuz and then
restarts.
I've tried nopci and noprobe as command line options but it continually
reboots.
It's an old laptop - Compaq Presario 1246, but it should be able to
handle things.
The HD was installed originally on my laptop (x86) and transferred over
- I've done this plenty of times in the past. If I put the drive back in
my laptop, it boots fine.
TTFN
Paul

Problems with mounting usb-storage partitions?
by Michel Salim
I have been having these problems intermittently, and have not been able to
ascertain the reason: on a computer with a USB mass storage device attached,
logging into the desktop does not result in the drive being automounted by
gnome-volume-manager.
Symptoms:
- After boot is complete, logging on to a console and doing 'dmesg | grep
sd' does not list the external drives
- After power-cycling one of the external drives, now udev picks *all* the
external drives up, and creates device nodes for them
- HAL (I'm guessing) does not necessarily sees all the drives. I have two
drives, one a WDC MyBook external drive that is reliably mounted with FC6,
and the other an Addonics drive cage that I use to mount an old laptop hard
drive. All the Addonics partitions are mounted by g-v-m (including the
Windows NTFS partition, with ntfs-3g), but I have to manually mount the
MyBook's single ext3 partition.
What gives? The volume label is "My Book", just in case it's the space
that's causing the problem.
Will bugzilla this, but would love a comment on whether this is a HAL-only
bug, udev-only, both, or even mkinitrd (if usb-storage is not in the initrd
again)
Regards,

This is with the 3com controller on the third from the top PCI slot.
I switched to a different Hurricane controller and installed it in the
first slot. Still got the time out failure with x86_64 3104 kernel.
I have now replaced the Hurricane controller with a gigabit controller.
It has not bombed out yet but hasn't had much uptime. In the meantime
Comcast has gone erratic so I haven't received any mail today.

F7T4 Gimp Acquire menu doesn't show xsane plugin
by Gerry Tool
I have xsane working fine with my Epson Perfection 4490 Photo scanner with
iscan installed.
[gerry@f7t4 ~]$ rpm -qa *xsane*
xsane-0.994-3.fc7
xsane-gimp-0.994-3.fc7
I can scan fine with xsane and save the image, but the Gimp Acquire menu
doesn't have an option to scan.
This worked in F7T3. Any suggestions, or can anyone else confirm or counter
this?
Thanks.
Gerry
