Strange things happening
by Antonio M
1) oowriter and oocalc don't start any more (and also System-config-display)
2) Output of :system-config-display is:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/system-config-display/xconf.py", line 33, in <module>
import rhpxl.videocard
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/rhpxl/videocard.py", line 166
else if dev.PropertyExists('pci.linux.sysfs_path'):
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
Which developer is involved in this step backwards?? (and I suppose he
didnt' test on his machine??)

nautilus uses ~10% CPU always
by Chuck Anderson
Has anyone else noticed that nautilus just sits there using 10% of
your CPU for what seems like "no reason"? What might be causing this
usage?
Occasionally, it has gotten stuck using above 90% CPU. When this
happens, my laptop CPU stays at 2.2 GHz instead of going to a slower
clock speed and the fan stays on. This can't be good for power
saving. I killed nautilus when it did this, and it respawned and then
stayed around 10%. Still seems like too much.

Sunday Rawhide install fails
by Chuck Forsberg WA7KGX
An NFS install of the Sunday Rawhide fails after installing all
packages but before installing the boot loader. I tried a minimal
install.
An attempt to upgrade the install in text mode failed with a divide
by zero error after the bootloader information was entered.

Is it safe to ignore this .fc8 kernel error?
by Gilbert Sebenste
Hello all,
I approved the 2.6.24.4-64.fc8 kernel, but I am noticing this as of the
last few kernels (through .58, I think):

I know that there was a kernel problem reading the core temperatures
properly (and yes, I have smartd enabled). But what about the " Problem
creating device name scan list" error? I don't understand the errors I am
seeing here. Anyone have any ideas or comments?

Bluetooth in F8 - known bug?
by mike cloaked
Along with some others using F8 and trying to associate a bluetooth mouse
it seems there maybe currently broken bluetooth in the latest kernel?
Although I was able to get an initial association with the BT mouse using
hidd --server --search as root and then pushing the reset button on the mouse
the mouse fails to associate again after rebooting unless hidd --connect
is used.
This is using a KDE desktop though the commands above should not depend on
which desktop is used.
I installed kdebluetooth and after trying many different tacks I eventually
got the mouse to associate but then it would not re-associate.
Checking the logs I see in /var/log/messages

This is looking like a kernel bug associated with bluetooth?
Does anyone have any current information on this and whether there is a fix
on the way?

Some ext4 observations
by Clyde E. Kunkel
Hi,
Installed both F9alpha and then beta using ext4dev for / (on an LV), but
not /home or /boot.
See the following: 1) system-config-lvm says no file system on the LV;
and , 2) during startup see msgs that orphan nodes are being cleaned up:
Mar 30 11:02:28 P5K-EWIFI kernel: EXT4-fs: INFO: recovery required on
readonly filesystem.
Mar 30 11:02:28 P5K-EWIFI kernel: EXT4-fs: write access will be enabled
during recovery.
Mar 30 11:02:28 P5K-EWIFI kernel: kjournald2 starting. Commit interval
5 seconds
Mar 30 11:02:28 P5K-EWIFI kernel: EXT4-fs: dm-4: orphan cleanup on
readonly fs
Mar 30 11:02:28 P5K-EWIFI kernel: EXT4-fs: dm-4: 3 orphan inodes deleted
Mar 30 11:02:28 P5K-EWIFI kernel: EXT4-fs: recovery complete.
Mar 30 11:02:28 P5K-EWIFI kernel: EXT4-fs: mounted filesystem with
ordered data mode.
Mar 30 11:02:28 P5K-EWIFI kernel: EXT4-fs: file extents enabled
Mar 30 11:02:28 P5K-EWIFI kernel: EXT4-fs: mballoc enabled
Is there anyway to determine what is causing the orphan nodes?
Thanks.

Selecting Secure Wi-Fi Network with Network Manager
by Leon Stringer
Hi,
I've just installed F9B. During the install, you're prompted to
configure your network interfaces, so I tried to set up my wireless NIC
(Cisco Aironet PC4800). It wasn't clear what format the WEP key should
be in (i.e. decimal, hex, hex prefixed by 0x..., case sensitivity for
hex) so I typed 0x... and hopefully my correct WEP key and the SSID.
Now the installation is complete but I can't connect to my network.
Network Manager shows the network but when I select it I immediately get
"The network connection has been disconnected". The trouble is I can't
see how to check the credentials I entered during setup. If I
right-click on NM and select "Edit Connections..." I just have 5 empty
tabs with the Add, Edit and Delete buttons disabled.
The salient /var/log/messages entries are below, it looks like my
credentials are wrong to me? Surely it would make sense to prompt me if
these are incorrect or is this set somewhere else. (If so, it's very
unintuitive).
Thanks in advance for any help or advice,
Leon...
