Anyone successfully printing to a netgear print server with FC3T2?
by Gerry Tool
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.

Anyone else have these problems [bugs?]
by Richard Quint
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
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)?

firmware loading
by Lee Connell
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

perl-Filter .bak files
by Steve G
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?

/var/tmp/badcontext
by Stephen John Smoogen
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 ;).

Re: FC3T2 No sound
by sonnyvn＠linus.mitre.org
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/...,
rpm -Uvh it, and then ran it.
