Firstboot is for RHEL - needs a cancel/bypass option
by G.Wolfe Woodbury
Fresh install from rawhide of 2005.01.09 shows that my anaconda bugs are
fixed, the install was successful.
However, the firstboot is obviously for RHEL and doesn't provide any
means of bypassing or cancelling out of the RHN registration.
Do y'all have any opinions as to whether this is a bug or something that
needs to be bugzilla'd?

4g/4g patch?
by Philip Molter
Dave,
Do you guys have in-house a "working" copy of the latest 4g/4g patch? I
tried backporting the version from 2.6.9-1.6_FC2, but couldn't make it work.
The latest kernel update contains a few security fixes I need, but I've
come to rely on the large 4GB lowmem space, and upgrading absolutely
kills me.
I know you had in there some support for compiling hugemem kernels.
Even if it's an option in the SRPM that's not built for the standard
distribution, that's fine. I just personally need that 4G support.
Thanks,
Philip

Bug with Java jre in FC3
by gslink
It appears there is a bug in FC3 which causes display problems when
using attributed text in Java. All but the first character of lines of
attributed text seems to vanish when displayed in the IBM 1.4.2 jre.
This did not happen in RH9. This is going to result in a serious
Bugzilla complaint. Has anyone worked on this problem and gotten a
better lead on what is broken? It would be helpfull if the Bugzilla
post contained a better description of the bug.

rawhide FTP install (text fair, GUI broken)
by Jim Cornette
A couple of things relating to the rawhide tree for Jan 23. The GUI
portion seemed messed up. The recognition of an lvm installation seemed
to not detect the existing installation. The text installation for a
system with traditional partitions seemed to detect even an installation
that was located on a USB drive that I was unable to boot before with
the usb problem for loading modules order. The installation was
recognized, but failed due to a later installation having the same
labeling information. I unplugged the USB drive to upgrade an existing
installation that was an FC2 with no updates applied. The installation
took pretty well, except for its confusion detecting the differences
between my 815 card as primary and the ATI card as secondary. Overall,
this problem has been present for awhile regarding the video cards. At
least it works for upgrading in text, without an lvm installation. The
gui install seemed broken on three different video cards.

Dell laptop followup (Re: ASUS S5N and the 2.6.10-1.741_FC3 kernal and s3 sleep works
by Matthew Faull
To the people using the dell laptop and trying to s3 sleep it>
I remember about 6 months ago I had to unload all the usb, network and
sound modules before attempting to get to s3 sleep. But these days I
don't have too. Maybe you don't either.
On a side note - given Fedora one of the most popular distros around,
does anyone know of any mailing lists or websites specifically for "acpi
nijitsu" on laptops using the fedora distributions?
I've found alot of websites out there describing attempts for Joe X to
get ACPI sleeping working on their laptop. But nothing that attempts to
consolidate the information or create notebook specific rpms for sleep
scripts.
Cheers

Anaconda failure
by G.Wolfe Woodbury
I went to test a fresh install of rawhide/development and anaconda quit
with an X-windows related failure. I couldn't get a decent trace.
With no real information, I'm reluctant to bugzilla it, but wanted to
mention it somewhere.

Laptop mousepad with latest X-org
by Paul F. Johnson
Hi,
I'm going to have to drop down to the previous version of X as there is
something up with the current one - the mouse pad on my Toshiba
Satellite Pro A10 is up the wall!. It selects somethings, doesn't react
to patting the pad to emulate a click and is generally all over the place.
Not sure what component to file a bugzilla against on this one - any
clues folks?

yum update problems
by Paul F. Johnson
Hi,
I seem to be having a problem with yum updating. I can get around it by
using exclude, but would rather not.
yum reports the following packages to be updated
mod_dav_svn.i386 0:1.1.3-1
swig.i386 0:1.3.23-2
subversion.i386 0:1.1.3-1
subversion-devel.i386 0:1.1.3-1
wireless-tools.i386 1:28-0.pre4.3
It runs the transaction check and reports
libiw.so.27 needed for NetworkManager and kdenetwork
libswigpl.so.0 for subversion-perl
subversion 1.1.1-4 for subversion perl
And then falls over as these dependencies can't be met. Is there
something I can do to fix these problems?
TTFN
