Hi, I updated to FC5(fresh installation). the scim was installed too. However, I can't trigger scim. there is link at the home dir .xinput.d/default -> /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/scim the /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/scim is XIM=SCIM XIM_PROGRAM=scim XIM_ARGS="-d" GTK_IM_MODULE=scim SCIM_QTIMM_XINPUT=/etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/scim-qtimm [ -r "${SCIM_QTIMM_XINPUT}" ] && . ${SCIM_QTIMM_XINPUT} unset SCIM_QTIMM_XINPUT # override with xim for now QT_IM_MODULE=xim The scim setup, ctrl+space was set to trigger scim, but there was no response after hit ctrl + space. if i log in, setting chinese as the system language, the trigger command is working, but not when set English as the system language. how to fix this?

firefox problem
by David Pettersson 01 Apr '06

01 Apr '06

Hi, I saved my home directory under FC3 to a DVD. Then I installed FC5 and moved my .mozilla file on the DVD to my new home directory. When I try to start firefox I get an error msg telling me that firefox "is already running, but is not responding". There is no file in .mozilla to that match *lock*. If I remove .mozilla firefox starts but then I lose my valueable bookmarks and passwords. Does anyone else have this problem? I came to think of the problem with the DVD renaming files (so .mozilla is actually _mozilla on the DVD and I had to rename it when copying it back). Do anyone have a list of filenames from .mozilla/firefox in FC3 to send me, so I can see how to rename them back if this should be the problem? Thanks David

compiling pam_mount for FC5
by Roman Maeder 01 Apr '06

01 Apr '06

I couldn't find any rpms for pam_mount-0.12.2 for FC5 and tried to compile it myself. I didn't get very far, as the "make" output at the end shows. The file in question is /usr/include/linux/loop.h, which belongs to glibc-kernheaders-3.0-5.2, so this seems to be up-to-date. Any ideas?
