/usr/bin/lpr not found
by Samuel Díaz García 30 May '06

30 May '06

I have a problem in a computer with FC5. I have configured a samba printer and I'm trying to print the test and a dialog box appears with the error described. I had intalled cups package and cups service is running. Any body knows what I'm missing? I can view /usr/bin/lpr command without troubles, it is there.

Does a graphical dyndns client exist for FC5. A graphical frontend for a cli client is also good. -- Facts are stubborn things nightrid3r

Outlook .msg file viewer for FC5
by Chris Bradford 30 May '06

30 May '06

Hi guys, I am trying to find a program for FC5 that will allow my users to view their old Outlook .msg emails they have in backup folders. They need to be able to read, print and view attachments. Does anyone know of a program that will facilitate this? Many thanks, Chris Bradford Systems Administrator Cambridge Newspapers This message has been scanned for viruses by BlackSpider MailControl - www.blackspider.com

setportprio problem with bridge-utils 1.0.6
by Samuel Díaz García 30 May '06

30 May '06

I'm having a problem with brctl when I want to set prio in a bridge port. When I execute: brctl setbridgeprio br0 eth1 10 (for example) I can see how that value (10) is asigned to the port cost. Is this a known issue with this version? I detected this with FC5 bridge-utils package and with dd-wrt bridge-utils. Any help about this? -- Samuel Díaz García Director Gerente ArcosCom Wireless, S.L.L.

FC5 on AMD Turion 64?
by Vini Engel 30 May '06

30 May '06

Hi guys, I am researching on 64 bit performance and was wondering if any of you run Linux on laptops fitted with AMD Turion 64 and what the results are? Looking around for options (laptops) I found two good options one is a Compaq with Turion CPU and the other is a HP with Intel Centrino Core Duo. There is a considerable difference in terms of price but what about performance? I usually run FC5, so if you run the same thing I would love to hear what you have experienced with running Linux on your Turion! Thanks a lot in advance! Vini

Adaptec 1210SA problem (with installation)
by Samuel Díaz García 30 May '06

30 May '06

I have a machine (p4 1,6GHz) with an adaptec 1210sa controller with 2x80Gb harddisk. I configured the controller to make a hardware mirror raid, but when install FC5 it detect my primary IDE harddisk (/dev/hda) and the 2 harddisk in the 1210sa controller (sda and sdb). I want to have a transparent mirror, not software mirror with this controller. Under this problem, my workaround is install FC5 only under hda, and after "yum update" configure the controller. I have on this many questions: 1) Will work the 1210sa controller as a harddisk after the update? 2) I'll need some kernel parameters (or module parameters) to allow the device work as only one hard disk (with a working mirror). 3) Is there any known bug with FC5 and adaptec 1210sa controller? and any work around with this?

FC5: can't mount JFS LVG
by Ben Lancaster 30 May '06

30 May '06

Hey, I installed FC5 last night using "linux jfs" at the boot prompt, set up my partitions but retained my old FC4 jfs LVG, and now the volume won't mount: # mount -t jfs /dev/mapper/MediaGroup-Media /Video mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/mapper/ MediaGroup-Media, missing codepage or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so No oopsie in dmesg or messages, what gives? I didn't touch the original volume group when playing with the partitions either. Its worth noting that when I specified a mount path in DiskDruid on install, the installation failed because the install was unable to mount the LVG due to an "invalid argument" after formatting the other partitions. Thanks, Ben
