Fresh install, no network

by Patrick O'Callaghan

I just did a fresh install of F14-RC1 (i.e. the gold version, x86_64) with default options and have no network. My F13 system on the same h/w and net had no problems. This is a bog-standard wired Ethernet using DHCP to a Belkin hub. The net itself is fine as other machines can connect, but F14 is dead. The "Edit Connections" dialogue is completely normal, IPv4, DHCP for everything etc. Attempting to run nm-applet gives a mysterious message about "Could not get the session bus". It then dumps core. This is about as uncomplicated a setup as it's possible to imagine, and yet it doesn't work out of the box. I hate to carp about free software, but how can this not have been caught in testing? (Yes I know, but we don't all have the time and resources to test the new stuff before release). poc PS Sending from my F13 netbook on the exact same network.

Preupgrade change?

by Paul W. Frields

A couple questions regarding preupgrade for F14: * https://fedorahosted.org/preupgrade/changeset?new=data%40d42e6189dbe4ad75... Shouldn't Rawhide always stay in the list of releases? * Will there be a preupgrade available on release day for F1{2,3} -> F14? I thought I saw discussion about this either here on the test list or elsewhere but I can't seem to find it -- sorry for being repetitive if this has already been discussed. Paul

F14 - Changing GDM Background

by Sawrub

Hello All, Setting default GDM background was a little easy till F12 by using the 'Set as Default' button, but i can't see it there now in F14. Please rescue me to change it. Is there any way to set the same for the playmouth, so as to have one background right from the time when booting starts. -- Saurabh Sharma Linux user number: 490644 http://sawrub-blog.blogspot.com/ Open your doors.......It's time to look beyond Windows

Fresh install, no network

by Patrick O'Callaghan

I just did a fresh install of F14-RC1 (i.e. the gold version, x86_64) with default options and have no network. My F13 system on the same h/w and net had no problems. This is a bog-standard wired Ethernet using DHCP to a Belkin hub. The net itself is fine as other machines can connect, but F14 is dead. The "Edit Connections" dialogue is completely normal, IPv4, DHCP for everything etc. The LAN interface is an onboard Intel e1000. The kernel module is loaded. Running "ifup eth0" (after "ifdown") times out after 90 seconds. Attempting to run nm-applet gives a mysterious message about "Could not get the session bus". It then dumps core. This is about as uncomplicated a setup as it's possible to imagine, and yet it doesn't work out of the box. Suggestions would be welcome. poc PS Sending from my F13 netbook on the exact same network.

Changes towards previous version 0.6.34: * New API function iso_write_opts_set_part_offset() controls creation of an MBR with a first partiton table entry that bears non-zero start address. A second set of volume descriptors and directory tree+tables gets created which can be used to mount the image at the partition start. * Hiding all non-API symbols from the linker by use of --version-script * Automatic C++ detection in libisofs.h by using macro __cplusplus * Corrected several memory leaks and potential NULL pointer evaluations in case of memory shortage. This release can use libjte to produce jigdo files along with the ISO image. Further filesystem images may be appended as MBR partitions 1 to 4. The capability was added to produce boot blocks for computers with MIPS CPU. Changes towards previous version 0.6.36: * New API calls iso_write_opts_attach_jte() and iso_write_opts_detach_jte() allow to use libjte for jigdo production. * New API call iso_write_opts_set_tail_blocks() for tail padding inside ISO image. * New API call iso_image_generator_is_running() to learn when the write thread is done. * New API calls iso_image_add_mips_boot_file(), iso_image_get_mips_boot_files(), iso_image_give_up_mips_boot(). * New API call iso_write_opts_set_partition_img() for appending e.g. a small empty FAT12 filesystem which may be used on USB stick. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Sun Oct 31 2010 Robert Scheck <robert(a)fedoraproject.org> 0.6.38-1 - Upgrade to 0.6.38 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ================================================================================ libmikey-0.8.0-0.2.20100127svn3750.fc13 (FEDORA-2010-17013) A C++ library implementing the Multimedia Internet KEYing protocol -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Initial build -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #626701 - Review Request: libmikey - A C++ library implementing the Multimedia Internet KEYing protocol https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=626701 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ================================================================================ libmsip-0.8.0-0.1.20100629svn3775.fc13 (FEDORA-2010-17014) A C++ library implementing the SIP protocol -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Initial build -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #626726 - Review Request: libmsip - A C++ library implementing the SIP protocol https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=626726 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ================================================================================ pootle-2.1.2-1.fc13 (FEDORA-2010-16998) Localization and translation management web application -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Update to 2.1.2 - Fix XSS on translate page - Improved monolingual support - Improved GNU style project support - New translations: Zulu, Greek, Danish, Acoli and Fulah - Completed translations: Uighur, Chinese (China), Catalan, Asturian, Akan and Ganda - Various bug fixes -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Fri Oct 29 2010 Dwayne Bailey <dwayne(a)translate.org.za> - 2.1.2-1 - Update to 2.1.2 - Fix XSS on translate page - Improved monolingual support - Improved GNU style project support - New translations: Zulu, Greek, Danish, Acoli and Fulah - Completed translations: Uighur, Chinese (China), Catalan, Asturian, Akan and Ganda - Various bug fixes -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #647832 - pootle: XSS via 'match_names' parameter on translate.html page https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=647832 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ================================================================================ postgresql-plparrot-0.04-2.fc13 (FEDORA-2010-17019) A PostgreSQL procedural language for the Parrot virtual machine -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #634091 - Review Request: postgresql-plparrot - A PostgreSQL procedural language for the Parrot virtual machine https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=634091 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ================================================================================ q4wine-0.120-3.fc13 (FEDORA-2010-17008) Qt4 GUI for wine -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Q4Wine is a qt4 GUI for wine.

NVidia Driver question???

by Rob Healey

Greeting All: First of all, I would like to say thank you for whatever information that you can give me... I would like to know if it is better to use the supplied video drivers by fe xorg-x11-drv-? or would it be better to use the video driver from NVidia? My video card is: nVidia Corporation NV44 [Quadro NVS 285] (rev a1 Would anyone also be able to tell me if I will be able to gnome-shell/ gnome 3 with this video card as it currently says that I will need 3d acceleration now when I try to go to Desktop Effects if I were to use the NVidia supplied drivers? I do not even know if it would be wise to use the NVidia drivers anyway? Sincerely yours, Rob G. Healey
