Missing some X11 headers
by Ernest L. Williams Jr.
Hi,
I did an update against rawhide to get the latest Xorg stuff.
When building some X-win software, I discovered that some X11 headers are missing:
============================================
/usr/include/X11/extensions
-- Print.h
-- Printstr.h
============================================
Thanks,
Ernesto

Re: Unable to get into gnome-control-center.

I went through the news group and saw this was a problem and deleted
The file. I still get this error.
#The catalog viewer installed by gthumb seems to be incompatible with

Showstopper: rebooting-kernels showing up in stable
by Brian Fahrlander
I'm running the exact same hardware I've been on for several years-
and AMD, 512M of RAM, Nvidia card. All's been well since 7.3->FC2,
until now.
Three stable-releases of the kernel ago was the last kernel I've
been able to boot. Trying to boot from the last two results in an
immediate reboot- black screen, no "Uncompressing Linux", nothing. Just
an immediate reboot. Still, the previous version is just fine.
(Details to follow)
I'm not the only one seeing this. Several people have mailed me
directly saying they're seeing the same thing, or made posts that are
strikingly similar.
A failed kernel isn't the end of the world- everything works out
eventually. What bothers me is that two in a row have left the
'testing' stage and into 'stable' in a row. This is bad for business,
guys.
Sure, it's not _all_ machines, but it's enough, especially with TWO
kernels, not just one, that someone should have seen it somewhere. Has
the path from 'testing' to 'stable' been shortened?
The last successful kernel was 2.6.6-1.435.2.3, failed kernels are
kernel-2.6.8-1.521 (latest) and kernel-2.6.6-1.435, previous to that.
Details are kinda lengthy; I hope it's not a problem to attach'em,
cause that's the best info I have.
I've snipped out the unnecessary parts...
Thanks for any insight you can provide. It's a real stumper; if it
were something like APCI/etc wouldn't I at least see "Uncompressing
Linux" or _something_? This is more like it's been compiled for another
arch...

esound 0.2.35-1 sound quality regression
by Michel Salim
Hi all,
Sound quality when playing music using ESD output has been fine until
recently.. I'd guess it was the upgrade from 0.2.34-3 to 0.2.35-1 that
changes things. I have a Centrino laptop that uses the snd_intel8x0
Alsa driver for sound, and before esound has always run at 48 kHz and
things work fine.
Now esound defaults to 44.1 kHz and the sound output.. vibrates a lot.
Unfortunately there is no way to select the preferred sample rate
using the GNOME sound capplet.. I had to kill esd from the command
line, and then restart it (without the -terminate flag, otherwise when
it stops and GNOME launches a new esd, it is started with the wrong
sample rate again).
Thanks,

SELinux stops new X11?
by Richard Hally
The new xorg-X11(6.7.99.902-1) will not start with the current strict
SELinux policy(1.15.16-1) in enforcing mode. (xorg-x11-*6.7.0-7.2 works
just fine). I have not tried permissive mode.
It looks like something has changed in X11 that has to do with the
fonts and the SE policy has not been updated to handle it but that is
just speculation.
from my Xorg.0.log:
<snip>
(II) Mouse0: ps2EnableDataReporting: succeeded
Could not init font path element unix/:7100, removing from list!
Fatal server error:
could not open default font 'fixed'
Please consult the The X.Org Foundation support
at http://wiki.X.Org
for help.
Please also check the log file at "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" for additional
information.
*** If unresolved symbols were reported above, they might not
*** be the reason for the server aborting.

Radeon and X seem to be working better with the CVS version
by Jim Cornette
I wanted to ensure that the newer version of xorg-x11 would work on the
laptop using the radeon driver. Problems were reduced with the newer
version. With the previous version, launching tuxracer (as a test) would
end up crashing the server.
The game comes up and no longer corrupts the display.
Being a laptop computer, I never ran it constantly to really test X. It
crashed randomly once when X was left running to share files overnight.
This is running on an FC2 system that xorg and only it's deps.

new kernel for testing
by Arjan van de Ven
Hi,
the plan is to do a kernel update friday or monday (depending on the
amount of things that turn up in this testing). There is a 424 kernel in
the testing dir on the ftp repository and on
http://people.redhat.com/arjanv/2.6
One of the last minute changes is a series of patches to the input
subsystem that are supposed to fix a lot of the "tapping my laptops
touchpad doesn't work" bugs. So please beat hard on this kernel...
Greetings,
