Problem with xemacs installed from a rpm of the DVD Fedora Core 2
by Stephane Dellacherie 01 Sep '04

01 Sep '04

By using the advices of James W. (see fedora-list Digest, Vol 6, Issue 253), I succeded to install xemacs from the DVD of the Fedora Core 2 by using the commands Go into a terminal as root: mount /mnt/cdrom (assuming that's your DVD drive) cd /mnt/cdrom/Fedora/RPMS rpm -Uvh Canna-libs-3.7p1-6.i386.rpm xemacs-sumo-20040202-4.noarch.rpm \ xemacs-common-21.4.15-5.i386.rpm xemacs-21.4.15-5.i386.rpm \ apel-xemacs-10.6-2.noarch.rpm I installed xemacs from the directory /root with the previous rpm commands. Then, everything is correct with xemacs if I go into a terminal as root. But, if I open a file from the /home/dellache directory with xemacs as a user being not the root, xemacs opens the file but says that : (1) (initialization/error) An error has occurred while loading /home/dellache/.xemacs/init.el: Symbol's function definition is void: global-font-lock-mode To ensure normal operation, you should investigate the cause of the error in your initialization file and remove it. Use the `-debug-init' option to XEmacs to view a complete error backtrace. Another information : there is no .xemacs and .emacs directory in the /root (and in the /home/dellache) directories : then, it seems impossible to find any file init.el to put into any .xemacs directory in the /home/dellache directory !

RPM Builds and System Optimization
by David Cary Hart 01 Sep '04

01 Sep '04

Most of the Fedora RPMS are provided as i386. These can easily be recompiled as: rpmbuild --target i686 --rebuild package.src.rpm a. Is it worth it? In other words, is there really a performance gain in packages like - say - KDE? b. Assuming that I installed the RPM sources and built from the spec file, as long as I am at it, could I also benefit by changing some of the FLAGS? For example: CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=pentium4 -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"

Dual Boot System
by Brandon Cirella 01 Sep '04

01 Sep '04

Is it possible for me to run a dual boot system but to have to insert a floppy to boot Fedora? My parents just want to be able to turn on the computer and have it boot Windows and not have to select anything. I don't mind inserting a floppy disk to boot Fedora. I'd have Fedora Core installed on a seperate hard drive but I'd want to be able to boot it only by using a floppy. If this is not possible would it be possible to install it on a removable USB hard drive and plug in the drive and boot from the drive only when I use the computer?

cordless ps2 mouse (Trust 250SP)
by Ross Macintyre 01 Sep '04

01 Sep '04

How do I get a cordless PS2 mouse to work under Fedora core2? I must be missing something blindingly obvious cos I would have thought that I could have just plugged it in (replacing another 2 button PS2 mouse), and run mouseconfig, selected "Generic 3 button Mouse PS2". The mouse in question is a Trust AMI Mouse 250SP Wireless Optical. Do I need a particular driver? Thanks in advance -- Ross Macintyre (raz(a)macs.hw.ac.uk)

The 'winblows' key...
by RoboticGolem 01 Sep '04

01 Sep '04

I never used FC1 so I dont know if this is something that started in FC1 or not. However, I used to use my win-key for many many shortcuts in RH9. Like win+<arrow> would move my virtual desktops, win-m for mail, that sort of thing. It was a good way to use shortcuts that wouldnt interfear with other applications. KDE doesnt allow me to do this anymore. I click the 'custom shortcut' hit the winkey, it shows win+ but then when I hit the next key win+m, it goes back like it acknowledged it however, its only the m key, not win+m. Does anyone know what could cause this? I used to have a custom keymap back in 5.2 to get this to work, do you think this could help me now? THanks in advance, Matt

Help needed -alternative method to install FC2 where CD1 no recognised
by Simon Tierney 01 Sep '04

01 Sep '04

Help please FC2 boots from the Mashita DVD multi drive but after I specify language and keyboard type the system reads from the DVD drive then says the FC2 disk 1 isn't present. I have burned 3 of them, and it has been suggested that the installation program lacks a driver for the mashita. Can anyone tell me an alternative method to install FC2?
