ATI propriety driver: no 3D
by A.J. Bonnema 01 Sep '05

01 Sep '05

Hi all, I've just installed the 64 kernel FC4 on my AMD Athlon 64 X2 with a Asus AX800XL (which is a Radeon X800 card). For a driver I used the propriety one from ATI so I could play freedroidRPG (it needs 3D acceleration). What happens is, the /var/log/Xorg.0.log shows the following messages: (II) Loading sub module "fglrxdrm" (II) LoadModule: "fglrxdrm" (II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib64/modules/linux/libfglrxdrm.a (II) Module fglrxdrm: vendor="FireGL - ATI Technologies Inc." compiled for 6.8.0, module version = 8.16.20 ABI class: X.Org Server Extension, version 0.2 (II) fglrx(0): Depth moves disabled by default (**) fglrx(0): Capabilities: 0x02008000 (**) fglrx(0): CapabilitiesEx: 0x00000400 (**) fglrx(0): cpuFlags: 0x4000001f (**) fglrx(0): cpuSpeedMHz: 0x000003ed (==) fglrx(0): OpenGL ClientDriverName: "fglrx_dri.so" (**) fglrx(0): UseFastTLS=0 (**) fglrx(0): BlockSignalsOnLock=0 (==) fglrx(0): EnablePrivateBackZ = NO (--) Depth 24 pixmap format is 32 bpp (II) do I need RAC?

Or, is 3D hardware acceleration just not available for Radeon X800 cards? If I start freedroidRPG anyway, it ends my X-session immediately (really: a fraction of a second) and I am presented a logon screen...... Does anyone know what is wrong here? Guus. -- A.J.

dont know anything about a key. but i used this: https://www.linuxant.com/driverloader/wlan/downloads-installer.php in my laptop and it works like a charm. its $20 but WELL worthwhile. the ndiswrapper would load but i could never get it connected to my network by manually configuring. my time is worth a little more than $20. j Hello All, I am trying to set up a wireless network in my house and one of the computers is running Fadora. I know absolutly nothing about the operating system and any help would be greatly appreciated. I need to know where exactly I enter the key so that the adapter can connect to the network.

FC4 - IBM e326 - network problems.
by Naoki 01 Sep '05

01 Sep '05

Hi all. I have a networking problem here I'd like to share. Cut down FC4 build on an IBM e326. I am attempting to SCP 2.4MB of data to this box ( from anywhere the results are the same ). It connects, asks for password, which I give. And then after a few packets I see it all go very ugly indeed. Throwing retransmissions and, segment losts, and DUP ACK messages. Which just kills the scp with a "Stalled" message. If I leave it then _eventaully_ the file will transfer. I've changed switches and have the same result. Starting to wonder if there is a problem with the Broadcom ethernet controller? One of the reasons I suspect the controller is performance jumps to normal (good) after I reinitialise the card.

FC multi version install: re-using partitions
by David Niemi 01 Sep '05

01 Sep '05

Yes, generally a multi-version install has been covered just want to know about re-using some of the partitions. /dev/sdc2 7.6G 3.8G 3.5G 53% / /dev/sdc1 145M 31M 107M 22% /boot /dev/shm 1005M 0 1005M 0% /dev/shm /dev/sdc7 9.7G 1.1G 8.1G 12% /home /dev/sdc3 7.7G 2.5G 4.9G 34% /os2 /dev/sdc5 6.7G 938M 5.4G 15% /var I've FC4 i386_x64 installed and for testing compilation would like to install the regular i386 version. Reusing the swap partition should be fine, install /boot onto the / partition instead of causing problems with my main install. The /os2 partition is where I'm going to install the other version. Will it cause problems re-using /home and /var (probably problems with the latter). I'll probably have to backup /home (cp -pR), install, create user(s), login then out and then as root copy everything back. Thanks

RE: Cheap way to practice clustering?
by James Montz 31 Aug '05

31 Aug '05

If you just want to play and learn with Failover, you don't have to have a multi-host aware storage solution. I have a couple of test servers setup, just using their local disk for storage. I have setup several services (httpd, sendmail, imap, and virtual IP) to fail over between the two servers, and has suited my needs. And if you really wanted to test an external storage source, you could use an NFS mount. The only difference in a production environment will be the presence of the storage system, and this is basically just handled by defining the shared file system as a shared resource. -----Original Message----- From: fedora-list-bounces(a)redhat.com [mailto:fedora-list-bounces@redhat.com] On Behalf Of Thomas Cameron Sent: Wednesday, August 31, 2005 8:34 AM To: fedora-list(a)redhat.com Subject: Cheap way to practice clustering? Hi all - I posted about using firewire for clustering practice a couple of days ago. It turns out that this apparently requires a special, very expensive firewire solution. So I want to play around with clustering (as in high availability clustering a la Red Hat Cluster Suite, not computational clustering) at home so that I can become more proficient. The problem is, I don't want to buy a multi-thousand dollar SAN for my house. I wanted to find a way to do clustering on the cheap. I am not sure what path to take, so I am going to toss it to the list to see if anyone has any suggestions. I am totally open to older/used equipment. >From what I've been told, I need a storage device which is multi-host aware, so plain old firewire or even SCSI JBOD won't do. I've been looking at the specs at http://www.redhat.com/software/rha/cluster/hardware/. I'm leaning towards VMWare at this point, but I'd rather do it for real than in virtual machines. Any pointers?
