Mouse Wheel gone
by Christian Menzel
Since the latest xorg-X11 upgrade I receive the already mentioned XKB
error and the mouse wheel is not working anymore.
Has anybody seen this behavior?

I have the same symptoms...
rpcinfo says that nfs et.al. are running.
Something has changed in test 2, since the same PC running RH9
accesses that host just fine.

/etc/inittab went away && wlan has weird device name
by Julian C. Dunn
I just did a yum update, updating to initscripts 8.31.1-1 (among other
things like a new kernel). When I rebooted, init complained that inittab
was missing, so I rebooted into rescue mode and found that there was
an /etc/inittab.rpmsave but no /etc/inittab. Has anyone else had this
problem?
Also, I'm using a Thinkpad T42 (2378RAU) and the wireless card shows up
as a weird device after boot:
dev8569 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:0E:35:FC:39:23
Does anyone know why?

autoconf breakage on x86_64.
by Sam Varshavchik
I don't know the right way to fix this, but something is definitely broken;
and something needs to be fixed, one way or the other. The question is what
exactly needs to be fixed.
Consider something like this:
LIBS="-lresolv $LIBS"
AC_TRY_LINK_FUNC(res_query, AC_MSG_RESULT(yes), AC_MSG_RESULT(no))
Here's what happens on x86_64:
gcc -o conftest -g -O2 -Wall -I.. -I./.. conftest.c -lresolv >&5
/tmp/ccW7EeDX.o(.text+0x7): In function `main':
/home/mrsam/src/courier/authlib/configure:5160: undefined reference to
`res_query'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
configure:5147: $? = 1
configure: failed program was:
[ blah blah blah ]
| /* We use char because int might match the return type of a gcc2
| builtin and then its argument prototype would still apply. */
| char res_query ();
| int
| main ()
| {
| res_query ();
| ;
| return 0;
| }
The same exact test on FC1 x86 will work.
The reason appears to be that you have to #include <resolv.conf> on x86_64
in order to succesfully pull res_query() out of libresolv.so. You don't
need to do this on x86, and the test program generated by AC_TRY_LINK_FUNC
does not include any headers, but uses a manual prototype.
So, what now?

Please strip out the patch that brings up applications behind gnome-terminal
by Miles Lane
Hello,
I cannot understand why on earth xorg or Gnome
has been changed to render new application behind
gnome-terminal. Every time I run a program (surprise!)
I want to use it. I don't want to keep playing around
with gnome-terminal. So, can we please strip this
change out of Fedora Core?

USB Mass Storage Devices No Longer Automagically Mount
by Paul Dickson
This has been going on for a couple of weeks, but USB mass storage
devices are no longer automatically mounting. Previously they would
mount to /media/$BOOTLABEL/.
I have to manually do a: mount -o uid=500,gid=500 /dev/sdb1 /mnt
What package should I bugzilla this to?

Firefox is still crazy.
by Jim Bevier
I have all the updates as of today from Rawhide. For the last several days,
Firefox has not been displaying test correctly. When I open Firefox, I get
Fedora Core 5.91 release notes displayed. However, only the underlined and
bold text is displayed. If I scroll the page, all the text will appear and
looks fine. As soon as another program get focus, the text disappears
again. Clicking back on Firefox and scrolling the page will return the
text. Is this OS, Firefox, X11, or ? Any ideas? I have an X86_64 system
with NVIDIA card and use KDE.

PS/2 mouse jumpy in FC6 test1
by Pasha R
After installing FC6 test1 and updating it to current development
packages, my PS/2 (microsoft) mouse became very jumpy. When I move a
mouse, after some moving forward, pointer suddenly jumps back. This
occurs in both XWindows and in console mode. I tried to plug same
mouse to USB port and it works ok this way. Never had such problems
before with previous Fedora releases.
