kernel-2.6.18-1.2200.fc5 - cooling fan powers off at boot time.
by fedora-list＠jamesplace.net
I've got a problem booting kernel-2.6.18-1.2200.fc5
I'm using an eMachine T2240 system.
CPU: CPU, CEL-2.2G/128K/F400,mPGA478,SL6RW CPEMIN100155
CPU Fan Type: Fan, H/SINK:117162CBL01,MPGA,P4P-2.4G,W/
(The above was collected from:
http://parts.emachines.com/emachines/sys_lookup.asp )
When I boot the 18-1.2200 kernel the CPU cooling fan power off as the
words, “Uncompressing Linux Kernel....Ok booting kernel.” appear on the
screen.
Prior to this kernel I've had a problem where the fan will power off when the
CPU heats up too much. That still occurs with kernel-2.6.17-1.2187_FC5 and
earlier. But now with kernel-2.6.18-1.2200.fc5 the fan powers off
immediately at boot time.
Is there something I can do to correct this problem. I'm admittedly not
particularly knowledgeable in this area.
Thank much for the help.
James.

[ OT? ]: Firefox hogging nwk bandwidth
by Anoop Chandran
Hey guys,
I was running an ssh session to a remote box from my laptop (FC6).
Meanwhile,
I started a download of a tar ball using Firefox (v.2). And suddenly I was
unable to send any inputs to the terminal. It was like Firefox was hogging
all of the network bandwidth. I waited till the download to be completed, to
send further commands, so that i could really see what I was typing to the
terminal.
Amused, I tried second time downloading a different package using Firefox.
Same thing happened. I tried a `ping www.yahoo.com` and it took at least
five seconds to resolve the host and start pinging the host.
Was wondering if anyone had faced similar situation.

CCRMA
by Claude Jones
There was an allusion at some point in recent months to discussions ongoing to
bring Planet CCRMA into a closer relationship with Fedora, I had the
impression that something along the lines of Extras or Livna was the model.
Does anyone know if that process is ongoing, and if so, what the status of it
is?

SDRAM or DDRAM in linux
by Niklaus
Hi,
I have access to a remote linux machine. I have a root account on it.
I need to know whether the installed RAM is SDRAM or DDRAM.
Unfortunately i will be going to the site next month when i have to
upgrade the machine with more capacity. Few of them are hardware
related but if you know the answer please help me.
1) How do i find out when the machine is online , if it is SDRAM or
DDRAM. I tried dmidecode utility but i was not sure about the type.
Can someone help me out by pasting the output for both DDR and SDRAM
in dmidecode or similar.
2) Can both SDRAM and DDRAM be present at a time in the same
motherboard. I mean can i have 256MB of SDRAM chip and a 256 MB of
DDRAM on the same motherboard.
If yes what are the conditions.
3) Is a motherboard designed for only one type of RAM , like if we
remove all the SDRAMs can we put DDR in it or it is either designed
for DDR or SDRAM.

Gutenprint for FC5
by Kanwar Ranbir Sandhu
Hello All,
Has anyone installed gutenprint on a FC5 box? Does it work well?
Should it be avoided? I'm about to give it a shot in order to use a
printer that is supported in gutenprint, but not in the gimp-print
package in FC5.
Also, are there any rpms out there? I haven't been able to find any so
far.
Thanks,
Ranbir

Patches from bugzilla
by Frank Pineau
This is a lame question, I know, but is there a HOWTO to using
bugzilla-posted patches? I have a problem that's already been
identified in bugzilla and someone has posted a patch for it, but I
don't want to wait for it to make its way through. Presumably, I can
run it against the SRPM and generate a new RPM, but a HOWTO would be
handy for doing it "right".

by Alexander Volovics
I have a pc with an Intel Core2 Duo E6600 processor.
Can I install the kmod-nvidia-1.0.9626-2.2.6.18_1.2798.fc6.i686.rpm
from livna without problems (with regard to the dual core processor)?
Does it adapt to or deal with the dual core processor.

Konsole/tmp file problem
by Tom Diehl
Hi,
Can anyone tell me what is going on here? I am using konsole on gnome. I have
been using it for several years with no problem. Within the last few days I
keep running out of space on my /tmp partition. Konsole appears to be making
a bunch of tmp files, deleting them but not closing them. as a result they
fill up the partition until I kill the konsole sessions..
Is this some kind of bug or a misconfiguration?? This is an FC6 machine with
all of the updates.

(tigger pts2) $
Does anyone have any suggestions what is going on here? FWIW, I do run 10 konsole sessions with approx
10 tabs in each one of them.
(tigger pts2) $ rpm -qf /usr/bin/konsole
kdebase-3.5.5-0.1.fc6
(tigger pts2) $
For the record, I understand what is happening, I just do not understand why it
is happening. More importantly how do I stop it from happening, short of not
running konsole or making a larger /tmp partition?
Regards,
