Battery-low auto suspend in FC3
by Ed Swierk
I've recently upgraded to an ACPI-capable laptop, and it works great with
FC3 for the most part.
One feature I miss from APM is the ability to have the laptop
automatically suspend itself when the battery power gets too low.
I use KDE and know that the klaptop feature supports automatically
suspending, but I'd like the laptop to sleep even if KDE happens not to be
running (e.g. while it's sitting at the login screen). Also, klaptop's
idea of suspend is to twiddle /sys/power/state directly, which bypasses
the necessary unloading of modules that my own suspend script does.
Is there a simple daemon that monitors the battery power level via ACPI,
and can launch a script when it reaches a certain threshold?

Compilation of FC3 kernel
by Torben M. Hansen
Sorry for repeating myself.
I have experienced some problems with the fat filesystem module (see another
thread "Segmentation Fault when accessing partition") from kernel.org 2.6.10
sources. Therefore I have been trying to compile the kernel-2.6.10-1.766_FC3
sources.
However I receive errors like
fs/freevxfs/vxfs_kcompat.h:6:25: operator '<' has no left operand
unselecting the filesystem results in similar errors for jffs2 and apm
modules.
I'm using
gcc version 3.4.2 20041017 (Red Hat 3.4.2-6.fc3)
Using the same compiler on the kernel.org sources results in no compilation
errors.
Is it a bug or is there something I can do?
Thanks

I have just installed FC3 on hp nx9030.
Everything is fine, except I have no sound.
Sound card is detected.

Everything seems ok, but no sound. artsd uses 95% of CPU and crashes
couple minutes after boot.
What could be wrong?

nvidia TNT 2 Model 64
by Coert Waagmeester
Hi again everybody.
I have a nVidia TNT 2 Model 64 with 32 meg video ram.
I downloaded the nVidia driver for it, and tried to install it
on my FC3 installation. all went well except that I had to add
the nvidia dev entries in udev's /etc/udev/devices.
Then when I rebooted into runlevel 5 with X the graphics came
and nVidias nice logo, but nothing happened from there. when I
moved the mouse it was like mouse trails were on, and they did
not dissapear.
Can someone advise me on what to do?
Kind regards,
Coert
btw thnx to the people who have helped me with my previous
problems so quickly.

Re: FC 3 -- Ready for Production Deploymnet??
by Roger Lin
Last night I have sent an email to this list but no one seems
noticed. I installed FC3 on a AMC Sempron 2400+, Ecs KT600-A box with
an WD 80 GB drive, using the DVD iso file, the install run without
any problem and got to the complete successful screen, but won't boot
up, got error disk boot falure. Maybe you mean more than ready is not
for all plat form? This is a brand new box, but Fedora won't even
boot up...
Apprecaite any help I may get,
Thanks,
Roger

100% Linux - Is it possible?
by Pete
I was just looking for a consensus on this...
I have been working with Fedora Core 3 for the past month. My new years resolution was to learn Linux. So far, so good.
I created a dual-boot Fedora / Windows XP. I am now seriously considering going completely 100% Linux and dumping my Windows partition entirely.
The question is - can you live completely without Windows, or do you sooner or later have to resort to Windows again?

On my system (FC3), an image resembling the one you describe is
/usr/share/backgrounds/images/default.png, in the
desktop-backgrounds-basic RPM.
