yum space requirement calculation is off
by Kwan Lowe
Trying to do an update today..
[snip]
installing package openssh-4.5p1-5.fc7 needs 197MB on the /usr filesystem
installing package glibc-2.5.90-19 needs 197MB on the /usr filesystem
installing package gdm-2.18.0-4.fc7 needs 206MB on the /usr filesystem
installing package openssh-server-4.5p1-5.fc7 needs 206MB on the /usr filesystem
Error Summary
-------------
Disk Requirements:
At least 5732MB needed on the /usr filesystem.
[snip]
It looks like some calculation is off in how much space is needed.

Re: kvm-16 and f7t2 livecd

But is it the correct choice to run kvm-16 with latest fc6 kernels
(2.6.20-1.2925.fc6 x86_64 in my case), based on what said on main kvm
download page:
http://kvm.qumranet.com/kvmwiki/Downloads ?
According to that, I'm yet using the kvm-12 version...
modinfo kvm gives:
[root@localhost ~]# modinfo kvm
filename: /lib/modules/2.6.20-1.2925.fc6/kernel/drivers/kvm/kvm.ko
license: GPL
author: Qumranet
srcversion: 65CF3AA0BE4826FA10D728A
depends:
vermagic: 2.6.20-1.2925.fc6 SMP mod_unload
but it is not clear to me the version of kernel part for kvm delivered
with this kernel (I havew not right now the kernel sorces...) and so
if it is ok in any way to run kvm-16...
Eventually I will find on kvm mailing lists too if no answer here.
Thanks in advance.

Are long options bad? (rpm packaging)
by Dr. Michael J. Chudobiak
Hi,
I notice that the gThumb rpms are patched to remove mention of the -s
and -f command line options in the man page. Instead, only the long
versions (--slideshow and --fullscreen) are mentioned.
Why? Is this a fedora packaging policy?

a2ps deps
by Adam Pribyl
I can not update my development/rawhide system for several days now,
because I have a2ps package installed and it requires dependencies
tetex-dvips
tetex-fonts
tetex-latex
texinfo-tex
etc.
Those package are not present on any mirror and I am not able to verify if
its present in
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/i386/...
because this directory access times out (already several days).

Haldaemon
by Carlo Wise
I have noticed that the haldaemon service is not running when I reboot
and log into my machine. I watched the boot sequence and the haldaemon
was started (it said (ok)) but when I log in and check the status of the
service it is not running. I have to start it again in order to be able
to mount my cdrom and other such devices.

suspend not working on fc7 (rawhide)
by Rodd Clarkson
Suspend has stopped working on my Dell Inspiron 9300.
FWIW I'm using the nvidia driver, but mostly because suspend (or more
correctly resume hasn't worked with the 'nv' driver since FC5 - I've
bz'ed it).
It was working about 10 days ago, but now tells me that it has failed
and to check the help files.
I've done this and all seems fine:
[rodd@localhost ~]$ lshal | grep can_suspend
power_management.can_suspend = true (bool)
power_management.can_suspend_to_disk = true (bool)
power_management.can_suspend_to_ram = true (bool)
[rodd@localhost ~]$ gconftool-2 -R /apps/gnome-power-manager | grep can
can_hibernate = true
can_suspend = true
[rodd@localhost ~]$
Anyone else noticed suspend no longer working.

virtual consoles are blank after resuming.
by Rodd Clarkson
Okay, I should have reported this one ages ago, but my virtual terminals
go blank after I resume from a suspend.
Anyone else seeing this?
