FC4 -- icmp open socket error
by Tony Crouch 02 Jul '05

02 Jul '05

Hi All, I recently did a clean install of FC4 on my computer and everything has been working fine until about an hour ago. I restarted my computer and it failed to connect to our network DHCP server, displaying the error, "icmp open socket: permission denied" during the boot stage. I don't understand why this has suddenly started occurring. It has been connecting fine all week. I rebooted into Windows XPoo to ensure that our DHCP hadn't died. XPoo finds and connects to the DHCP server no problem at all. If you guys would like I can post my iptables file, if you think it will help provide some answers. I have, for the time being, statically set my network details in order to still gain network access. Thanks for your assistance. Cheers, Tony Crouch

Ndis Wrapper Installation
by ridan abid 02 Jul '05

02 Jul '05

Hey, Currently I am using FC2, and Im trying to set up a wireless card by NetGear. The Model Number is MA401. I have the generic drivers for XP. And its been a while since i used Ndis. The NdisWrapper version that Im currently using is 1.2, i believe the latest. Keeping in mind that I am a beginner, can some one take me through all the steps that a ten year old could possibly understand. Im over exaggerating a bit, still. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com

no voice with xine
by Globe Trotter 02 Jul '05

02 Jul '05

Hi, Over the past two weeks, ever since xine got upgraded, I have had a strange issue with xine. There is no sound anymore. Moreover, when I quit, this is what I get: $ xine -f mov.mpg This is xine (X11 gui) - a free video player v0.99.3. (c) 2000-2004 The xine Team. mkdir(/local) failed: Permission denied Any suggestions? My home directory is in /usr/local rather than /home, but none of this has ever been an issue. Moreover there is no issue with mplayer in terms of sound et al. Running FC4 and the latest 2.6.12 kernel, but the previous 2.6.11 of before yesterday had the same issue. Many thanks and best wishes! ____________________________________________________ Yahoo! Sports Rekindle the Rivalries. Sign up for Fantasy Football http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com

Another WiFi question...
by radioact1ve 02 Jul '05

02 Jul '05

Hey everyone! Hows it going? Well like others, I have a wifi laptop and I put FC4. Want to move about the place with it, I installed ndiswrapper (from source) and drivers. It's all installed, sees my card (a built in broadcom (4306 I think)) When I reboot, dmesg sees the module and its loaded fine. I set the mode, key and channel. But for some reason it just won't work. It has to be a setting mistake on my part. From here I don't know where to go b/c I don't get any errors. I don't know where to look for them. Any clues? Thanks! Just in case, It's a presario r3000 laptop (AMD64 but running x86 FC4) and like I said its a built in broadcom chip. -- - radioact1ve radioact1ve(a)gmail.com http://radioact1ve.blogspot.com/

yum - lack of features
by Dan Track 02 Jul '05

02 Jul '05

Hi Can anyone tell me why yum lacks the following ( or maybe it me): 1) Can't force a reinstall of package 2) Can't force a package to install if there are some minor dependencies 3) Can't fetch a package number 1 and 3 are my most important issues. Anyone got any ideas why that is? Thanks Dan

FC4 US 104-keyboard right "windows" key problem
by Wolfgang S. Rupprecht 02 Jul '05

02 Jul '05

I see a problem with the right-handed "windows" key sending a button-4 (!!!) event. Both emacs and xev claimed it was sending a mouse button-4 event. I do have a scroll-wheel 5-button mouse on the machine and the right windows key does do the same scroll-up action as the mouse does. Weird. This is under the default installation on an amd64 FC4 system w. a standard 104 key US keyboard and selecting US as the language. Are others seeing the same thing or is something screwed up on my system? -wolfgang -- Wolfgang S. Rupprecht http://www.wsrcc.com/wolfgang/
