Invalid compressed format (err=2) after rawhide20050427 update
by Dawid Zamirski
Hello
Since I updated to rawhide20050427 I'm unable to boot the system with
any kernel (including the most recent 1275 build) except
2.6.11-1.1240_FC4 which works ok. Higher builds of the kernel throw the
"Invalid compressed format" error. I was able to boot 126x kernels
before the update. I tried to revert back initscripts an mkinitrd
packages to 8.07-1.x86_64 and 4.2.8-1.x86_64 respectively, but this
didn't solve the problem. I also disabled SE Linux and checked my file
system with reiserfsck but this didn't help either. My all partitions
including /boot are reiserfs. Could this be the cause of the problem?
Thanks.

Prelink and maxing out CPU usage and increasing freq of CPU
by Jim Cornette
Whenever prelink-0.3.4-3 starts, it uses close to 100 % CPU. This usage
causes the frequency of my laptop to max out and the laptop to get 20 to
30 C hotter than under normal conditions.
Is there a way to keep processes from getting this high of CPU usage?

Xvnc weirdness
by Chuck Forsberg WA7KGX
Recently I changed some network settings on a system running
FC3. This prevented Xvnc from serving up the desktop.
Strangely, setting Xvnc suid allowed it to work.
This is strange. Normally, X is suid but not Xvnc.

new-mail-notify missing in evolution
by Phil Anderson
Hi,
I just did an ftp install off the current development tree, and it
completed perfectly, and everything is working a treat. Thanks to all
involved.
My only issue is that the inbox monitor applet has gone. This appears
to be an upstream decision in GNOME 2.10. However, from what I
understand, it has been replaced by the new-mail-notify plugin in
evolution. The version of evolution in devel doesn't have this plugin!
Anyone know what's going on here? Or is it time for bugzilla?
Cheers,
Phil

Boot problems with up to date but 1261 kernel system
by Orion Poplawski
Had a rawhide install that worked reasonably well. Did yum update to
latest rawhide today and rebooted. Kernel 1268 appeared to bring back
network driver problem, so I tried to boot back to 1261. This system
appears to become "busy" (laptop fan goes on) after loading modules, and
then takes an incredibly long time to boot, particularly starting
networking programs. I haven't been able to glean any kernel errors or
other messages, just takes forever. Never had the patience to let the boot
complete.
I know this is pretty vague, but thought I'd report it.

Hi,
I have tried to launch KWiFiManager in FC4t2 (also t1 with the same
result). It starts and is visible for second and goes down. I receive
the below error message from the KDE Chrash Handler. Can anyone tell me
how to get this to work?

DHCP to give out domain.tld
by Don Casey
I know this is probably the wrong place to ask this but...
Can someone quickly tell me how to let DHCP set the domain.tld for a
machine. IE if I set the system name in /etc/hosts
Thanx,
Don
