SELinux and compatibility
by Erez Hadad
Hi,
I'd like to test FC2T2, but I'm troubled by the issue of application
compatibilty being possibly harmed by the SElinux integration: what level of
compatibility does FC2T2 have with standard (non-SE)Linux? more precisely:
1. Can I install binary RPMs out-of-the-box?
2. Can I replace the kernel with a standard version without having existing
applications fail?
3. Are there any driver compatibility issues? (binary level)
(I the above questions I assume that source-code level compatibilty is
complete - please correct me if I'm wrong..)
Sincerely,
Erez Hadad

Bug #116654: atkbd.c: Keyboard on isa0060/serio0 reports too many keys pressed.
by Efthym
I've been getting the same message but don't know if its related. It
usually happens after long periods of inactivity (in X and console) and
then the keyboard just locks up. The system is still functional (the mouse
works) and I can start programs and do everything normally, except use the
keyboard. The strange thing is the message keeps repeating in the logs, so
I suppose there is response to the keypresses. the only keys that seem to
work is if I press CTRL+ALT+DEL. Then the system reboots !
Nothing comes up in the X logs. Should I look for something else ?
Should I add this in Bugzilla under the same bug or start another ?

RE: Today's dependency problems
by Troy Carpenter
Correction, the headers today specify libpcap-0.8.3-2 (not 0.8.2-2).

I noticed that as of this morning (4/1/04) that the only problem was
with libpcap and ethereal. All the other problems (like you said)
appear to be fixed.
The libpcap in the headers shows 0.8.2-2, but 0.8.2-1 was still on the
mirror when I tried. When there are problems like that, I usually just
wait and they eventually work out.
I use yum instead of up2date, but usually if one breaks the other breaks
too, I've noticed. Yum still works for me, but:

It works now without excluding gimp or libdv, but when I did it only,
the duke mirror was up to date. But maybe be careful. It also updated
rpm and up2date doesn't work anymore so don't update rpm.

Re: clock-applet dies when trying to change prefs
by Lynda Sweetman
This is the first time I've posted here. I've had the same gnome clock problem, and installed the gnome-panel update. But rpm reports:
WARNING: Failed to parse dafault value ` ' for schema (schemas/apps/clock_applet/prefs/hour_format)
This is repeated twice. I also don't have a "clock.c" anywhere on my system.

Problems with postgres in test2
by Mike old
I have installed test2 and now am having problems with a pg DB
I did pg_dump_all to a file, checked it, all my data is there
Updated then did psql -f template1 as the man page
Now two things
Two tables (which are linked) have no data in them (other tables in the
DB do)
The "child" table wont allow inserts from a cgi script which worked fine
with test1
So anyone any ideas here/

Re: System and network response slower
by Aaron Kincer
Ok, figured it out. The slow system response was fixed by rolling back
packages. The slow network was due to a DNS problem external to FC2.
This got me thinking about what I would consider to be a neat applet idea--
-Periodically pings DNS servers or attempts to perform a series of
address resolutions
-Periodically pings GW
-Keeps track of latency changes
-Opening the applet would show a list of running tests that would
indicate any problems with connectivity
-Just like Up2date flashes when there is an update available, perhaps
some visual cue could occur with a problem
Basically like a scaled down personal version of Big Brother. Does such
a program already exist that I don't know about?
Also, I am trying to figure out how to do threaded responses. Never
quite figured that out with mailman lists. Any insight would be much
appreciated.

FC2TS kernel 300 hates enforcing mode
by Will H. Backman
After manually downloading kernel-2.6.4-1.300, boot fills screen with
endless audit messages about klogd, and screen eventually switches over
to strange characters.
Setting enforcing=0 ends this.

DRI not worknig after upgrade to test 2
by Vaclav Cermak
Hello,
I upgraded to fc2test2 with apt-get and DRI stopped work for me. Logs
from Xserver looks good, the problem is that GL apps cannot load
/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/r200_dri.so because symbol
_glapi_noop_enable_warnings is missing. Before upgrade all worked fine.
I have ATI Radeon Mobillity 9200 card, I'am not using official
drivers from ATI.
Anyone has some suggestions?
Regards
