Mount a DFS share fc4
by Dario Lesca 31 May '06

31 May '06

hi, it is possible to mount a Microsoft DFS share folder whit Linux/Samba? If I try to mount it with this command: > [root@lesca ~]# smbclient -V > Version 3.0.22 > [root@lesca ~]# mount -t cifs \ > -ousername=io,password=miapwd,ro //dc01/dfs /mnt/floppy the DFS share resource is correctly mounted, if I execute a 'ls' the first level of folder is correctly show. But if I try to use the contents of the folders I not find what I'm looking for, I find always the same folders and files that there is in to root folder. If this mount is possible, someone can give me some suggest? Many thanks to all, and sorry for my bad english! -- Dario Lesca <d.lesca(a)solinos.it>

FC5 - audio not working, what to try?
by B Wooster 31 May '06

31 May '06

On FC3, audio was working fine on my system. On upgrading to FC5, audio is not working. xine/mplayer provide no sound. Using the system-config-soundcard utility, I can see it says it found: Vendor: Silicon Model: Integrated Systems [SiS] Sound Controller Module: snd-intel8x.0 But when I click on the play button on that window, I get no sound. It says look at /root/scsound.log, but not sure what to look it - nothing jumps out. Any ideas on what I should try next? Surprisingly - I also have Leadtex WinFast TV Capture card in my system, and using "tvtime", I can watch TV - and the audio on that works!

Logitech USB Headset (Audio newbe)
by Don Flinn 31 May '06

31 May '06

Hi I have a new Logitech USB Headset 350 that I am trying to get to work on FC5. I've run the suggestions of previous writers - [flinn@flinn ~]$ sudo cat /var/log/messages|grep -i Logitec May 29 16:32:14 flinn kernel: input: Logitech Logitech USB Headset as /class/input/input5 May 29 16:32:14 flinn kernel: input: USB HID v1.00 Device [Logitech Logitech USB Headset] on usb-0000:00:10.2-2.1 May 29 16:50:52 flinn kernel: input: Logitech Logitech USB Headset as /class/input/input6 May 29 16:50:52 flinn kernel: input: USB HID v1.00 Device [Logitech Logitech USB Headset] on usb-0000:00:10.2-2.1 May 29 17:47:26 flinn kernel: input: Logitech Logitech USB Headset as /class/input/input2 May 29 17:47:26 flinn kernel: input: USB HID v1.00 Device [Logitech Logitech USB Headset] on usb-0000:00:10.2-2.1 AND [flinn@flinn ~]$ lsusb Bus 004 Device 005: ID 03f0:2611 Hewlett-Packard Bus 004 Device 003: ID 046d:0a02 Logitech, Inc.

I've also gone to the system volume control and the headset is listed there and I have selected it. However, I can not hear an musical/audio cd through the CD player or any other audio device. Does anyone have any additional suggestions. By the way the headset works fine on my Windows machine, so no problem with the headset. I can get audio feedback if I blow into the mic, but that might just be internal between the headset and the earpiece. I have the feeling that there is just some little tweak that I'm missing. Thanks for any help Don

xorg.conf no longer changeabe by system-config-display
by Irvine Short 31 May '06

31 May '06

Hey All I have an IBM T43 with the Intel 915 chipset running FC5. I wanted to extend my desktop onto my external monitor which would not work using system-config-display. I then manually hacked my xorg.conf and now I have a working extended desktop but I can no longer go into system-config-display. Anyone have any tips for getting around this please? Also a neat idea for choosing different xorg.conf files for whether or not I have my external monitor connected would be handy.

While setting up the dual-video card display on FC5 that worked a week ago in FC3, I found that my xorg.conf file determined if the computer would freeze on me. Upon loading inittab, though, the computer would also freeze the keyboard and the ability to shut down by quickly pressing the power button on the tower. Fixing the problem was only a matter of reconfiguring xorg.conf, which I accomplished by: 1. Boot the computer from the first install disk, and type "linux rescue" at the prompt 2. Find your root drive in the /mnt folder, named...I forget..."sysvol" maybe 3. Remove the "/etc/X11/xorg.conf" file 4. I got tired of the bootdisk, so I changed inittab's line 18 to "id:3:initdefault:" instead of "id:5:initdefault:" 5. Reboot, a. If you didn't change inittab, it will probably try to make a new xorg.conf file - it did for me. b. Otherwise, you can mess around in the bash or whatever and see if it continues to freeze, and you can type "init 5" when you feel like testing the GUI. Two other things that froze my system - my CPU was overheating without Powersaving mode, and my USB network device likes to lose connectivity and make a few things cry. Hope my problems let you think of something. Tim Garrett
