FC8 T2 testing fails on avahi, digikam, hibernate on Dell Inspiron 6400 - test - Fedora mailing-lists

14 Sep 2007


      I'm trying F8 T2 (KDE Live - 386)on my Dell Inspiron 6400 laptop and
have observed the following 3 items so far:
1/  At boot time, the avahi daemon fails to start.  /var/log/messages
shows:

and group 'avahi' (GID 497).

2/ I tried plugging in my digital camera (Cannon S45).  Everything goes
fine,
Digikam could 'discover' my camera, but then when Digikam tries to
'connect'
to the camera, and it says it 'failed to connect to the camera'.
/var/log/messages shows during the 'plugin till unplug' time shows the
following:

3/ Hibernate shuts the system down, but it would not start up again when I
pushed the power button,
It looked like it did something, but the screen didn't come back.  (I'm not
sure if the backlight came on.)
(Sorry, I don't have any more diagnostics at this time.)
