Gnome Terminal open in Max mode
by Mike Chambers
Currently, gnome-terminal opens in minimized status. I like to work
with my programs in Maximized status. Is there a paramater (I know I
have seen it mentioned) to open it that way, or at least the paramater
to use and the sizes so I can experiment?
(Using latest rawhide btw)
Thanks,

Fedora Core 4 Test Update: policycoreutils-1.27.2-1.2
by Daniel J Walsh
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Fedora Test Update Notification
FEDORA-2005-943
2005-09-28
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Product : Fedora Core 4
Name : policycoreutils
Version : 1.27.2
Release : 1.2
Summary : SELinux policy core utilities.
Description :
Security-enhanced Linux is a patch of the Linux® kernel and a number
of utilities with enhanced security functionality designed to add
mandatory access controls to Linux. The Security-enhanced Linux
kernel contains new architectural components originally developed to
improve the security of the Flask operating system. These
architectural components provide general support for the enforcement
of many kinds of mandatory access control policies, including those
based on the concepts of Type Enforcement®, Role-based Access
Control, and Multi-level Security.
policycoreutils contains the policy core utilities that are required
for basic operation of a SELinux system. These utilities include
load_policy to load policies, setfiles to label filesystems, newrole
to switch roles, and run_init to run /etc/init.d scripts in the proper
context.

USB gone?
by Paul F. Johnson
Hi,
I don't seem to be able to use any USB printer with the 1576_FC5 kernel.
Neither my Samsung ML1510 at work or ML2250 are working.
Is anyone else seeing this?
TTFN
