DNS trouble using qemu host
by Anotherone Foryou
I've been attempting to install the latest Fedora 10 boot.iso and snapshots in two virtual machines, and am consistently running into a network problem. I'm using both VirtualBox 2.0.4 (Vista 64 host) and Qemu (Fedora 9 host) and I see the same problem in both environments. Both hosts have no network problem, and are running with disabled firewalls.
I've installed recent Ubuntu 8.10 betas, and these have to problems with net access, so I don't believe the problem is on the host side for the Vista nor the Fedora 9 machine.
I've disabled the guest Firewall (System->Administration->Firewall) and I've disabled SELinux (System->Administration->SELinux Management).
I'm starting the Fedora guest in qemu using:
# qemu-kvm -hda fedora.img -m 768 -net nic -net user
The installed guest cannot access the network, it seems because it cannot do DNS lookups. The result is that I cannot browse the web nor use yum to download rpm packages.
In trying to find the problem, I've found I can ping the host computer:
$ping 10.0.2.2
PING 10.0.2.2 (10.0.2.2) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 10.0.2.2: icmp_seq=1 ttl=255 time=0.196 ms
^C
but I can not ping the virtual machine host DNS server:
$cat /etc/resolv.conf
# Generated by NetworkManager
nameserver 10.0.2.3
$ping 10.0.2.3
^C
--- 10.0.2.3 ping statistics ---
24 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 23871ms
I've tried restarting the Fedora 10 network:
#/etc/init.d/network restart
but that did not help.
Any idea what I can do to get a functioning network connection?
Thanks,
Jeremiah

Rawhide GUI install fuzzy and hard to read
by Chuck Forsberg WA7KGX
On a Dell 2405 1920x1200 the text on the Rawhide GUI install is
fuzzy and hard to read. Once installed the display is crisp and
clear as expected.

Fedora 10 Snap 3 Installs Nice Over HTTP, Does Not Boot Post-Install
by Robert L Cochran
I had a flawless installation experience using Fedora 10 Snapshot 3. I
extracted and wrote the boot.iso image to a CD, used that to boot the
laptop and proceeded to do an HTTP install. I installed the snapshot to
an older Western Digital Passport external hard drive. The idea is to
connect the drive to my powered USB hub which is in turn connected to my
Dell Latitude laptop. However I tried to preserve the first two
partitions on the Passport drive. This act probably prevented the Fedora
10 system from booting after the installation? I'm not sure how to work
around it. Furthermore I encrypted the installation partitions...or I
hope I did. I hope I didn't encrypt the entire WD drive. I didn't want
the first two partitions on the drive to be encrypted.
Thanks

Updating createrepo seems like the way better plan to me instead of that
workaround. Could you be so kind and tell me which createrepo version we
need a least to get a "proxy-friendly createro"? Or is the answer "just
use the latest and greatest" (host is a rhel5 or centos5)?

Second steps of the transition from Livna to RPM Fusion begins: Enabling RPM Fusion for users of livna-testing!
by Thorsten Leemhuis
Hi!
Find below a cut'n'pasted and slightly enhanced version of a post from
my blog FYI:
As you'll likely have heard by now: RPM Fusion ( http://rpmfusion.org ),
the merger of Dribble, Freshrpms and Livna gets closer to its official
release/start. Most of the packages from Livna have been imported and
build for RPM Fusion already, hence we now begin to slowly enable RPM
Fusion for users of Livna by activating the RPM Fusion free and
nonfree repos for users of livna's F8 and F9 testing repos *now*.
The process works like this: I added the rpmfusion-release packages for
RPM Fusion's free and nonfree repos to the livna repo for F8 and F9;
afterwards I built new livna-release for F8 and F9 that is available in
livna-testing for F8 and F9 now; those two livna-release packages
track the two rpmfusion-release packages in with a hard dep. That way
all users that installed livna properly (e.g. by installing the
livna-release package) and enabled the testing repos will now get RPM
Fusion enabled automatically.
Note, nearly all of livna's packages have been imported and build for
RPM Fusion, but a few are still missing. So you should leave livna repos
enabled for now if you want everything. Once all the packages have a new
home we'll let the rpmfusion-nonfree-release package obsolete livna-release.
The plan is to move regular livna users of F8 and F9 over to RPM Fusion
with the same trick sooner or later. But some things in RPM Fusion still
need to get brought in shape before we start considering that. But if
you want you can already help by using and testing RPM Fusion for F8 and
F9 by running this command:
> rpm -ivh \
> http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-stable.... \
> http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-s...
It's even easier now if you already have livna enabled already:
> yum install rpmfusion-free-release rpmfusion-nonfree-release
RPM Fusion's Bugtracker (please report all issues here and not on the
mailing lists!):
http://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/
Mailing lists for RPM Fusion users (includes users of the devel branch)
http://lists.rpmfusion.org/mailman/listinfo/rpmfusion-users
Please spread the news! tia!
CU
knurd
P.S.: Just a reminder while at it: Some of you might have noticed
already, the livna mailing lists (like freeworld{,-graphics}(a)livna.org)
are dead since a few weeks; the hard disk in Anvil's mailman host died
afaik (I don't know more details; sorry). But Livna will be superseded
by RPM Fusion soon anyway, so simply use the those lists from rpmfusion
from now on. They should serve well for the remaining time, as all the
livna contributors should be subscribed there as well. Sorry for the
trouble.
P.P.S.: Sorry for crossposting this to five lists, but it seemed the
right thing to do for this announcement...
