Anyone successfully printing to a netgear print server with FC3T2?
by Gerry Tool 28 Sep '04

28 Sep '04

I am having no luck printing to my two printers connected to a Netgear PS110 print server in FC3T2. It works in FC1, FC2, but some network problem is blocking communication in FC3T2. It initially worked in FC3T1 until the last set of updates that made that system essentially a FC3T2 system. Does anyone else have this working in FC3T2? Thanks. Gerry Tool

Anyone else have these problems [bugs?]
by Richard Quint 28 Sep '04

28 Sep '04

I've just tried installing Fedora Core 3 Test 2 on two machines. One had Fedora 2. When I tried installing FC3Test2 over FC2 grub lost the option of booting to Fedora, leaving just other (Win XP). After doing a clean install of FC3T2 grub now gives both options---boot to Fedora or other. I found someone else had this problem by looking at the latest digest. However, I haven't noticed anyone having the other problems that I have had with both installations. 1) When you create launchers on or save a file to your [Gnome] desktop in an application (Maple 9.5) they don't appear until you log out and then log in again. 2) The settings in fstab for CDROMs and DVDROMS are no longer iso9660. No problem changing them, but for a new user who tries to use a CD with separate Windows, Linux and Mac installation files they see the Mac files not the Linux files. (This happened with the installation disk for Maple 9.5.) 3) There are problems with Java in Epiphany. Although the default is to have Java turned on it doesn't work and there is no indication where to put a plugin. 4) The default jvm (gij) doesn't work but, when I used the JRE that comes with Maple or Sun's own JRE I was able to successfully execute <path to java>/java -jar myfile.jar 5) When changed my default browser to Firefox and created a symbolic link to the java plugin it showed as broken. When I tried right clicking on the .so file and selected make link, nothing happened. Anyone have any suggestions.

i810 rehash and dell inspiron 2600
by Justin Georgeson 28 Sep '04

28 Sep '04

As an interesting note, Dell Inspiron 2600 laptops must stay at BIOS revision A08 or lower or this chipset will not work at all in any Linux distribution. What are the differences between the xorg i810 driver (is the upstream fixed one in the FC3 xorg 6.8.0 packages?) and the Intel one? The latest version from Intel was released in June of this year and the README tells how to configure dual-head support. Has anyone installed it (I haven't been able to build it so far on FC3T2 or Suse 9.1)? -- ; Justin Georgeson ; "Free the mallocs, delete the news" ; http://www.openoffice.org ; http://www.boycott-riaa.com ; http://www.freeiPods.com/default.aspx?referer=9559016

firmware loading
by Lee Connell 28 Sep '04

28 Sep '04

Hi guys, I'm having problems loading ipw2100 module. when i modprobe ipw2100 and then do a dmesg, it says: ipw2100: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2100 Network Driver, 0.54 ipw2100: Copyright(c) 2003-2004 Intel Corporation ACPI: PCI interrupt 0000:02:02.0[A] -> GSI 5 (level, low) -> IRQ 5 ipw2100: 0000:02:02.0: Detected at mem: 0x90000000-0x90000FFF -> 22a08000, irq: 5 divert: allocating divert_blk for eth1 eth1: Using hotplug firmware load. eth1: Firmware 'ipw2100-1.2.fw' not available or load failed. eth1: ipw2100_get_firmware failed: -2 eth1: Failed to power on the adapter. eth1: Failed to start the firmware. divert: freeing divert_blk for eth1 I put the firmware in /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware directory. I then noticed that firmware.agent was looking in /lib/firmware. I then placed the files in /lib/firmware and it worked. I rebooted the system and updated to todays updates 9/28/04. Not sure if the update did it or the reboot? but the firmware isn't loading again and i can't figure it out. Anyone got some ideas on what I should try next? Thanks, Lee

yum targets for FC3t2
by Harry Putnam 28 Sep '04

28 Sep '04

I'm confused... is rawhide the yum target for both FC3T2 and FC3T1? It appears both FC3t1 and FC3t2 yum.conf are aimed at rawhide. I've just fully updated a machine that says: cat /etc/fedora-release Fedora Core release 2.90 (FC3 Test 1) From: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/$basear… and fedora-release reads as shown above. My FC3t2 install shows Fedora Core release 2.91 (FC3 Test 2) Its yum.conf also came aimed at: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/$basear… Is this normal?

perl-Filter .bak files
by Steve G 28 Sep '04

28 Sep '04

Hi, I don't do much with perl....so I'm looking for a second opinion. I was looking at the perl-Filter rpm and did a rpm -qpl and saw this: /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.3/i386-linux-thread-multi/Filter/cpp.pm /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.3/i386-linux-thread-multi/Filter/cpp.pm.bak /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.3/i386-linux-thread-multi/Filter/exec.pm /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.3/i386-linux-thread-multi/Filter/exec.pm.bak /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.3/i386-linux-thread-multi/Filter/sh.pm /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.3/i386-linux-thread-multi/Filter/sh.pm.bak Are these .bak files supposed to be there? diff'ing them with the non-bak file shows no difference. Is there any valid use for these files? -Steve Grubb __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail - 50x more storage than other providers! http://promotions.yahoo.com/new_mail

/var/tmp/badcontext

What should users do with the files listed in /var/tmp/badcontext? For the last 3 days I have had over 10000 files listed since I installed it. I was wondering if I should be running some command after a yum upgrade that I didnt know about ;). 17287 /var/tmp/badcontext.HNjBUG2517 52272 /var/tmp/badcontext.XzqEZB4859 22518 /var/tmp/badcontext.YGZFP27816 -- Stephen J Smoogen.

Re: FC3T2 No sound
by sonnyvn＠linus.mitre.org 28 Sep '04

28 Sep '04

Hey guys, This is what I did to get sound to work for me. I downloaded the system-config-soundcard-1.2.9-1.noarch.rpm from download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/i386/Fedora/RP…, rpm -Uvh it, and then ran it.
