Okay everyone I asked this 3 days ago, STILL waiting for answer, can someone please respond: still can't install
by mail＠lotus-notes.net
I emailed everyone 3 days asking if I could get some help either with an FTP for a working install or other way to do it via yum or something. Swapping out the earlier test versions of core 2 disc 1 and then swapping to the current one (core 2 test 2) does NOT work for me.
Surely someone out there can take a minute to respond, I thought that would be something many people would have replied with by now but have read each and every email that I have gotten, other than some small reference to a bootable floppy creation process I don't see much. I checked the timestamps on the mirrors this morning the bad copies of disc 1 that won't boot still seem to be there and haven't been replaced.
Help?
thanks, Lee

Preset Grub boot menu
by Will H. Backman
Would it make sense to include preset grub boot menu entries for not
enforcing and also one for init level 3? This might make it easier for
folks who have a bad config or whatever. If they cannot boot, they
cannot find the answers.

HP3550 USB Printer and CUPS
by Andy Green
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Hi folks -
I am having some unexpected trouble setting up an HP3550 USB printer on a box
with fairly current development packages (it is about two weeks out of date
since I could not find any mirror that had a complete set of headers and
files since then). My parents have ordered the same printer and this Sunday
I planned to hook it up to their similarly configured Fedora laptop and show
them how to use The Gimp enough to print photos. So today I was hooking up
mine so it would go smoothly at my parents.
The printer is recognized fine by hotplug and the usblp module is inserted and
correctly creates /dev/usb/lp0. I was able to print the CUPS test page okay
from system-config-printer too. So I thought I was doing okay.
I noticed in system-config-printer, and in the CUPS administration page, the
printer status is reported as having its media tray empty, when this is not
so. I saw in the archives a guy with this problem being told it was a fake
error message and could be ignored.
http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2003-November/msg01768.html
The main problem comes with subsequent attempts to print, basically nothing
happens. I have been able to cancel print jobs from the CUPS admin webpage,
but I notice processes that seems to be hung lying around, for example right
now in ps -Af:
root 2981 1341 1 18:14 ? 00:00:53 usb:/dev/usb/lp0 85 agreen
(stdin) 1 cpi=12 lpi=7 page-bottom=86 page-left=57 page-right=57 page-top=72
scaling=100 wrap /var/spool/cups/d00085-001
This process seems to be sleeping most all the time, it is not taking any CPU
to speak of. This hung process seems to then block all other attempts to
print, it does not respond to kill -9 as root, and ignored the job being
cancelled in CUPS. The first param and the last filepath are referring to
this job being #85, which as far as CUPS is concerned is cancelled. It was
an attempt to print a jpg in The Gimp.
Does anyone have any advice or suggestions to get further debugging
information?
- -Andy

X can't start
by su-zj
I installed the FC2 on my PC P4 2.4 assembled by ACER.
which use SiS 315_315E video adapter and ACER AF706S monitor.
Of course they are not some famous manufacturer. When install
started FC2 complains unknown the video card and monitor. So
when installed, I can't startX. Log files said that No core
pointer. and I can't find the XF86Config under the /etc/X11/
so I copy the FC1 XF86config to it. the same result.
I wonder that XFree86 works well. the X.org XServer switching
may cause so much problems. How long should it take to
stabiblize the X.org Server???
Best Regards.

Thanks Gene, that's what I was looking for last night. (It was late and
I couldn't get to my browser.) If you boot your system and try to log
into X as a normal user, and then log in as root on a virtual console,
you should find one message in /var/log/messages that says something
like { getattr } failed for /usr/bin/gdm-bin. I think that message
needs posting in this bug.

Naw... That's cheating.

I've seen this exact problem for the past 2 nights (when I get to play
with my home system). I'm glad to hear it isn't just me. Everything is
up to date with Rawhide except libpcap. I have no problems logging in
from a virtual console.

no harddrives on a Gigabyte nForce2 motherboard
by Patrick
I've just tried test 2 and unfortunately it does not recognize either of
the hard drive controllers on my motherboard. I have a Gigabyte K7
Triton motherboard (nForce2).
Here is the information for the controllors:
I can't easily recognize the nVidia controller in the PCI listings but
it uses the amd74xx driver under FC1 and describes itself as "nVidia
Corporation nForce2 IDE" southbridge using driver version 2.10.
The second (RAID) controller is:
Bus 1, device 12, function 0:
RAID bus controller: PCI device 1283:8212
(Integrated Technology Express, Inc.) (rev
16).mailto:fedora-test-list@redhat.com
IRQ 11.
Master Capable. No bursts. Min Gnt=8.Max Lat=8.
I/O at 0x9c10 [0x9c17].
I/O at 0xa000 [0xa003].
I/O at 0xa410 [0xa417].
I/O at 0xa800 [0xa803].
I/O at 0xac00 [0xac0f].
ITE 8212
http://www.ite.com.tw/productInfo/Download.html#IT8212F
http://www.ite.com.tw/productInfo/Download.html#IT8212%20ATA133%20Controller
The ITE controller was not recognized under FC1 but I found source for
it, compiled it and it worked. The nVidia controller was recognized by
FC1 and is the more important drive of the two. I am hoping to put FC2
under the ITE drive using a Just-a-Bunch-Of-Disks mode and had hoped
since the source was available and under the GPL that it might be
integrated into kernel by this point. I've been booting FC2 off of a
hard drive and don't have a floppy drive so I can't make a driver disk
for it.
Are there any plans to add either/both of these controllers to the
kernel by Test3 or FC2 final?

Kernel 2.6.4-1.300 & snd-maestro3
by RJ
Hi
I upgraded to the newest kernel and noticed my soundcard is not
initialized.
ESS Technology ES1983S Maestro-3i PCI Audio Accelerator (rev 10)
When i try to manually load the module i get the following error:
insmod: error inserting 'snd-maestro3.ko': -1 Unknown symbol in module
depmod -a doesn't report any unresolved symbols.
It could have something to do with the fact that i have to give the full
path to the module to insmod otherwise it can't find it.
Usually the module name alone is enough (IIRC).
