Moving to cyrus mail from FC1 -> FC2
by Rajko Albrecht 27 Dec '04

27 Dec '04

hi, as seen there is not the old imapd in FC2, and it did install the cyrus-imap. Ok, but, when I login I can not see any directory formerly created, INBOX is missing, too. And in documentation of cyrus I didn't find anything about that, I thought it should run out of the box. So: can someone give a hint, how I convert all /home/<user>/mail to cyrus, which way I must go, that cyrus will display the INBOX for that user, and them don't get a "permission denied" when try to create a folder? Meanwhile I use dovecot, but there are some other problems, too. (filter via procmail, in cyrus I would make it via sieve and so on) Thanks Rajko

Dell Latitude D600 touchpad problem
by mikko nuotio 22 Sep '04

22 Sep '04

I have Dell Latitude D600, 512MB/1.4 GHz/ATI Radeon 9000/Alps GlidePoint (might be only sold in EU). The problem is I _really_ dislike Alps GlidePoint (dual, pad and stick) tapping feature. I am using Fedora core 1 (yarrow) with default Xfree86 shipped with it, and kernel 2.4.22-2135 I want to disable tapping from both stick and pad (or disable the pad) I have tried almost every possible way to disable it(I have read most of tuxmobile stuff for D600). tpconfig - I disable gpm, boot to runlevel 3 run manually "tpconfig --tapmode=0" it says ALPS tapping OFF, but when I start X tapping is still there, even using any existing mouse driver (PS/2, Alps). Does "tpconfig --tapmode=0" only affect on stick ? I also try synaptics touchpad driver for xfree86 (I had to compile it). but xfree will crash if driver not even loaded, only copied to /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/input (not 100% sure) at least it will crash is it is loaded. So I read more documentation and found out that when using synaptics driver with Alps glidepoint I should have 2.6 kernel to get events from this device. So is there any way disable Alps tapping with current kernel (2.4.22-2135)?

Fedora Core 2 & VNC?
by Denny Lee 17 Aug '04

17 Aug '04

Since Fedora Core 2 does not include XFree86, are there any suggested VNC apps that will allow me to remotely connect from my WinXP box to my Fedora box? Or should I stick to installing XFree86 and Tight VNC? Thanks!

ATI All In Wonder --- Has anyone gotten TV capture to work?
by FearOfCarpet 10 Jul '04

10 Jul '04

I was wondering if anyone has gotten an ATI All in Wonder RADEON's TV capabilities working in Fedora? There is a lot of information on the net about this, but I haven't seen much for the RedHat distros. Apparently I had it working in Debian, but KDE broke before I could really use it and I ended up wiping Debian and installing Fefora on that machine. I'm really only after being able to watch live TV off the S-Video input... Any info would be appreciated- TIA

"Starting mdmpd: failed"
by Ted Gervais 09 Jul '04

09 Jul '04

When I bring up FC2, I see "Starting mdmpd: ....failed". What is that all about and how can I get that error out of there. Everything else is so perfect, I just hate to see that 'failure'... -- Ted Gervais Coldbrook, Nova Scotia Canada.

Can't get ipsec working in Fedora Core 2
by Matt Harrell 06 Jul '04

06 Jul '04

Help! Until last night, I was running Fedora Core 1 with FreeSWAN. I was using FreeSWAN to connect to my place of work, and two different customer sites via IKE IPsec tunnels. It was working great. Since upgrading to Fedora Core 2, I cannot get FreeSWAN to work. So I decided to try the ipsec implementation included with the 2.6 kernel. I am having no luck. Is there any documentation for this anywhere? I'm referring specifically to the RedHat/Fedora implementation. I'm trying to make use of it (including the GUI set tool under System Settings --> Network --> IPsec). Sometimes racoon doesn't even respond to pings from my Windows XP PC behind my Linux firewall. When it does, it fails to connect. Racoon logs a "hash mismatch". The Sidewinder G2 firewall on the work end logs a similar message about the configuration not matching. I've noticed that racoon keeps trying aggressive mode. I don't know why. I've manually edited racoon.conf (and the individual .conf files for the other end) to eliminate aggressive mode (just leaving main mode). Also, when setting up an IPsec tunnel using the GUI Network tool, it asks for "Local network address". According to the documentation I found for RedHat Enterprise Linux, this should be the internal interface for the Linux firewall. However, I don't think this is right. I think this should actually be the subnet address, correct? In the Remote Network screen, it asks for both "Remote IP address" and "Remote network gateway". Aren't these the same thing? There's a separate field for "Remote network address", so it would seem that "Remote IP address" and "Remote network gateway" should both be the external interface IP address of the remote firewall. I have noticed two error messages that seem particularly troubling to me. First, when racoon first starts, it complains with ERROR: isakmp.c:1378:isakmp_open(): failed to bind to address [address of NIC] (no such device) for both NICs. Also, if I try to activate a configured tunnel with "ifup [tunnel name]", it replies with "RTNETLINK answers: Network is unreachable". What? If there is some good documentation for this ipsec system, please point me to it! Any other help would be greatly appreciated--I need this connection up so that I can work from home! -- Matt Harrell matt(a)mattharrell.net http://www.mattharrell.net

[FC2] How do I suspend?
by Norman Gaywood 29 Jun '04

29 Jun '04

I have acpid running. I can see that hitting the suspend button on my laptop triggers an event: [Fri May 21 13:34:44 2004] received event "button/sleep SBTN 00000080 00000001" [Fri May 21 13:34:44 2004] notifying client 2149[501:501] [Fri May 21 13:34:44 2004] completed event "button/sleep SBTN 00000080 00000001" [Fri May 21 13:34:44 2004] received event "button/sleep SBTN 00000080 00000002" [Fri May 21 13:34:44 2004] notifying client 2149[501:501] [Fri May 21 13:34:44 2004] completed event "button/sleep SBTN 00000080 00000002" I can also see I need to put something in /etc/acpi/events/ to tell the system to suspend on the event. What command should I use to suspend? "usr/bin/apm -s" can no logger be used because: kernel: apm: overridden by ACPI. -- Norman Gaywood, Systems Administrator School of Mathematics, Statistics and Computer Science University of New England, Armidale, NSW 2351, Australia norm(a)turing.une.edu.au Phone: +61 (0)2 6773 2412 http://turing.une.edu.au/~norm Fax: +61 (0)2 6773 3312 Please avoid sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments.

Anyone have this available anywhere? I seem to recall someone had it built into rpm during the testing phase but forgot and can't seem to find it in the archives. -- Mike Chambers Madisonville, KY "It's always better to hurt a little now, than to hurt a lot later!"

Flash + Mozilla and black 1px border?
by Vibol Hou 15 Jun '04

15 Jun '04

I asked this on the fedora-test list a while back and got minimal response; hoping more people on fedora-list can provide feedback. Has anyone noticed that all Flash animations (using MM Flash) under Mozilla has small 1px black border around them? Go to Macromedia.com and you'll (hopefully) see what I'm talking about in their header area. Other sites with Flash animation exhibit the same thing. Is there a setting somewhere to remove this black border (appears on top and left sides for me). I tried downloading Opera and it came preinstalled with some version of the Flash viewer that did not exhibit this 1-px border display problem. -Vibol

GL Kills my box?
by Adam Cooper 14 Jun '04

14 Jun '04

I have been trying to get an opengl game (vegastrike) to run on my system. However whilst i've been trying to get this to work i seem to have lost all opengl capabilities. When running any opengl app the computer immediately freezes with no output to screen. Being a relative newb i have no idea how to exit said freeze (ctrl alt F* doesn't get me anywhere) and so i have to restart. GLXGears as well as tux racer freeze as well. How can I fix this problem? Are there any logs that may be of use? I'm running Kernel 2.6 on a P4 2.6 512MB Thanks for any help. Adam
