NVIDIA Question
by David St.Clair 17 Jan '22

17 Jan '22

This may be a dumb question, but why can't Redhat distribute NVIDIA binary drivers? In NVIDIA's licence (http://www.nvidia.com/object/nv_swlicense.html) it says: "2.1.2 Linux Exception. Notwithstanding the foregoing terms of Section 2.1.1, SOFTWARE designed exclusively for use on the Linux operating system may be copied and redistributed, provided that the binary files thereof are not modified in any way (except for unzipping of compressed files)." So, what's keeping RedHat from putting the drivers in the distribution? If it's a GPL thing, would it be easy to just download it during installation or at least give the option to the user? Thanks, -- David St.Clair dstclair(a)cs.wcu.edu

Mouse goes crazy
by Jonathan Villa 17 Jan '22

17 Jan '22

Ok, I have had Yarrow working well for a while now, but yesterday I started experiencing some odd issues with my mouse. All of a sudden it stops working correctly. The only thing that seems to fix is to kill X and run mouse-test, then restart. Any ideas? Also, I have FC 1 running on a desktop which is hooked up to a KVM switch. Whenever I go to another PC, and return, the same thing happens, the mouse goes crazy. ???

The f10 builds seem to work fine for me (finding the plugins), so perhaps this is rawhide-specific? To be clear, digikam's Settings -> configure digikam -> Kipi Plugins is empty? -- Rex

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.

#61: make VirtioSerial Test cases clearer ----------------------+----------------------------------------------------- Reporter: liam | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: Test Day | Version: Keywords: | ----------------------+----------------------------------------------------- we have VirtioSerial Test cases here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Day:2010-04-08_Virtualization_VirtioSer… but during test day, none of these cases was executed. I think testers did not know how to run these cases, so Amit, could you like to rewrite these cases with template and make it clearer? The good cases can help make VirtioSerial better and better,it also can involve more fedora people in virtio.Thanks in advance. These cases that are written with template for your reference: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Fedora_13_Install_Results_Template#Test_M… Or if you don't know how to use template, just write the test step more specific and send the cases to me, I will convert them to standard format. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-qa/ticket/61> Fedora QA <http://fedorahosted.org/fedora-qa> Fedora Quality Assurance

#62: Description page for every test case in Package Update Acceptance Test Plan --------------------+------------------------------------------------------- Reporter: kparal | Owner: kparal Type: task | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: Wiki | Version: Keywords: | --------------------+------------------------------------------------------- For every test case in Package Update Acceptance Test Plan there should be a separate wiki page with detailed description what gets tested, etc. Some tools and autoqa front-ends may then reference this pages. Also it is needed for package maintainers that will surely want to read something about the test case their package has just failed. The test plan proposal referencing all the test cases is currently here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Kparal/Proposal:Package_update_acceptan… -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-qa/ticket/62> Fedora QA <http://fedorahosted.org/fedora-qa> Fedora Quality Assurance

[Fedora QA] #60: Devise a better location for critpath.txt

#60: Devise a better location for critpath.txt -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Reporter: kparal | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: Wiki | Version: Keywords: | -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- critpath.txt lists critical path packages [1]. Currently it is referenced as {{{ http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/mash/rawhide-<<CURRENT DATE>>/logs/critpath.txt }}} or {{{ http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/mash/rawhide-<<YESTERDAY DATE>>/logs/critpath.txt }}} depending on which page. Similarly for branched releases. This is not optimal. Very often the url just doesn't work. For example at the time of writing critpath.txt on F13 Alpha Release Criteria page [2] references rawhide-20100407/ directory, where critpath.txt is not available. Nor it is available in rawhide-20100406/ directory. Only in rawhide-20100405/ it is finally available. The very page Critical Path Packages [1] references critpath.txt for Branched release, which is available ATM, but also references critpath.txt for Rawhide, which is again not available. Let's imagine other use case - some automated tool must decide whether package in the critical path. It can't rely on path which are constantly changing and sometimes are not available. critpath.txt is created dynamically, so we probably must have the contents created every day or so. But we should devise such mechanism that the location is stable and the file is always available (if new contents fails to create, the old contents is still available). That will also allow third-party tools to rely on it.
