Various FC4T1 issues...
by Brian Rademacher 21 Mar '05

21 Mar '05

Don't know if this is exactly the right place to post these, but here are some things I've noticed with FC4T1...My system is so new that it may be part of the cause of some of these, but... Config is an Abit SU-2S dual Opteron 246s, 2 gigs ECC...Kernel is 2.6.11-1.1185_FC4smp on an x86_64... -Booting off of the DVD to install does not mount the floppy drive (it says unable to mount /dev/fd0) - I tested with Core 3 final and it mounted just fine. -CPU1 is not visible to the OS on a cold boot, but shows up when rebooting (I suppose this could be the motherboard as well) -These fill my console screen rather regularly but don't seem to affect performance: kernel: schedule_timeout: wrong timeout value fffffffffffffc18 from ffffffff802ec3dd

Fwd: Octave?
by Gregory Maxwell 21 Mar '05

21 Mar '05

It appears that octave has been removed from Fc4-test. I find this to be rather unfortunate, as I often cite octave as one of the fantastic professional grade tools that are just 'there' on Fedora. I don't know that being able to say that open office contains dozens of languages I don't speak carries the same importance as having octave. If you use the metric of 'used by most users' and apply it to all the packages, you could probably get the distribution down to a single CD, two for sure. Historically packages in extras have not been as well maintained... and there isn't an easy way to download isos and install 'everything' (where everything includes extras) from physical media, at least not that I'm aware of. If media count is a primary motivator, why not split the distribution up so that there is a 'base' which fits on one CD, 'complete' which takes no more than one or two DVDs and includes all packages that are expected to be of a high quality, and 'extras' ... which has everything else?

Epylog w/FC4t1
by Mike Chambers 21 Mar '05

21 Mar '05

Has anyone got this to work or know of something similar to use over log watcher? Seems I get out of range messages about time/date when epylog is run. -- Mike Chambers Madisonville, KY "It's only funny until someone gets hurt, then it's hilarious!"

i810 refresh bug regression? New or reopen?
by Paul Iadonisi 21 Mar '05

21 Mar '05

*sigh* Looks like the infamous i810 refresh bug is back after yesterday's xorg-x11 update (6.8.2-10). Well, maybe not exactly the same. There's definitely some refresh problems, but the behavior seems slightly different. Now, partial desktop icon artifacts appear near (usually within an icon width or two) the original icons. But they appear elsewhere on the screen sometimes, too, like when launching gnome- terminal. Should I update bugzilla 132267 or open a new one?

rpm file conflict detection - how to reenable?
by Robin Green 20 Mar '05

20 Mar '05

In FC4test1, rpm does not error out on file conflicts. (Example: libswt3-gtk2-3.1.0_fc-0.M5.12 from fc4test1 and rssowl-1.0.2-0.2 from http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/rssowl/rssowl_linux-1.0.2-0.2.i586.rpm?d… both contain some files in common, e.g. /usr/lib/libswt-atk-gtk-3123.so, but rpm does not complain when you install rssowl when libswt3-gtk2 is already installed.) How can I reenable the old behaviour? Thanks -- Robin

Unsigned Package
by Sean Earp 20 Mar '05

20 Mar '05

Hello All- I just upgraded FC3 to FC4test1, and am running into the problem that I can not log into Gnome, because it ratchets the CPU up to 100%, and never makes it to the desktop. I have switched over the the console to do a "yum update", since I understand this problem has been fixed with some of the updated rawhide packages. yum update, however gets as far as downloading all of the updated packages, but when going to install them, fails on every single package with the error message: "unsigned package whatever-X.Y.Z.i386.rpm" I did install the FC4 GPG keys via rpm --import /usr/share/doc/fedora-release-3.90/RPM-GPG-KEY* Is there a Yum command line switch similar to RPM's --nosignature option, or am I missing something blindingly obvious? Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, -Sean

bugzilla - notabug - error
by shrek-m＠gmx.de 20 Mar '05

20 Mar '05

hi, this happened to me the last few times i added a comment in bugzilla (2.18): "You tried to change the Resolution field from no value to NOTABUG, but only the owner or submitter of the bug, or a sufficiently empowered user, may change that field." steps to reproduce: -------- 1; follow a bugzilla-email-link (not the owner) 2; not logged in / mozilla cookies default 3; add a comment 4; save changes 5; log in / allow cookies "You tried to change the Resolution field from no value to NOTABUG, but only the owner or submitter of the bug, or a sufficiently empowered user, may change that field." 6; remove the comment 7: reload the bugzilla-report 8; add the comment again 9; save changes / logged in 10; all is ok ----/---- is this a problem with cookies or because i was not logged in the first time ? this problem was not in the old bugzilla. -- shrek-m
