2 versions of librsvg2 after updates on fresh install of FC5
by Nigel Henry 01 Oct '06

01 Oct '06

Just installed yet another FC5 on the other machine. 873MB of updates on dialup, but thankfully I'd saved the /var/cache/apt/archives from the other FC5 installs, so only had to suffer 496MB of downloads. Apart from some sort of transaction error when the updates finished, which I was unable to save as I got a power out. We'll forget about the error. It was something to do with pixbuf loader. Anyway FC5 booted up ok when the power came back, and I ran apt-get update again just to check out whether everything was ok. I've got a big bunch of deletes from apt-get update, and the last entry is. W: There are multiple versions of "librsvg2" in your system. True. Looking in synaptic I have libsrvg2#2.14.2-1, and libsrvg2#2.14.4-1.fc5.1 . /usr/lib shows librsvg-2.so.2 pointing to librsvg-2.so.2.14.4 Is it safe to just remove the earlier librsvg2#2.14.2-1 version from the system? There were no 3rd party repo's active when I did the updating, and both packages are listed as from (download.fedora.redhat.com) Nigel.

DVD problem in FC5
by William Murray 01 Oct '06

01 Oct '06

Hello there, I have a problem with FC5, must have started within the last month, but I don't know which update. My dvd drive (TSSTcorp CDRW/DVD TSL462C; device /dev/scd0) no longer automounts CD/DVDs when inserted. Now I can get root and mount manually, but it is annoying. Actually I have two options: -> No boot-time kernel option This gives correct auto-mounting, but no DMA--> DVDs unwatchable -> hdc=noprobe This gives no auto-mount, but I can watch DVDs I used to get both at once. Any clues anyone? Thanks, Bill [Ps 2.6.28 kernel seems just the same]

Suggestions for e-mail client:
by R. G. Newbury 01 Oct '06

01 Oct '06

I have been using thunderbird but unfortunately it saves all the messages in one large globular file. I cannot merge e-mails which have been retrieved/sent from different computers into one source. I like the way thunderbird works, otherwise. I need an e-mail client which keeps messages as single items (files) and which can rebuild its indexes of the messages in each folder without painful interventions, so that I can merely rsync the appropriate folder structure into one place for a full backup of all computers. (I have had these features for years using pmmail in OS/2 but I have made the switch and will not go back..but I do miss some things.) Suggestions please. -- R.

fedora core 4: no fd0u1680?
by fedoralist＠subtropolix.org 01 Oct '06

01 Oct '06

I've been using core 4 for quite some time now and this is the first time i've had to think about device nodes. I'd like to mount a floppy that's formatted to 1680 density but can't figure out how the device nodes work. Googling has gotten me nowhere (except a lot of Japanese pages--apparently this format is popular there). For starters, there's no fd0u1680. And what are /dev/fd/[0,1,2,3] for? Does this have something to do with Udev? I tried and failed to understand how that works (or, really, what it is). I have another box i can use in the mean time, but any pointers would be very much appreciated. b

How to recover Fedora Core 5?
by Vinicius 30 Sep '06

30 Sep '06

Hello, I have installed a Windows XP on another partition than my FC5. The system boot on Windows. I'm unable to do a dual-boot FC5 and XP. The steps followed are below: 1. Boot from DVD, then on the prompt: linux rescue; 2. from the rescue mode prompt: chroot /mnt/sysimage; 3. then: /sbin/grub-install /dev/hda. So, occurs an error about stage1 incomplete or something like that. Any ideas, please? TIA, Vinicius.

Checking internet connection without a winbox
by Dotan Cohen 30 Sep '06

30 Sep '06

I find that my internet connection is very slow. I speed test my conection and it comes out at ~170 kilo bytes per second, which sits well with a 1.5 MBS line. When I ping google, I have about 80% packet loss, and the packets take 200-300 ms. My ISP says that the infrastuture company is to blame. The infrastructure says that there is no problem with them, and that my router or computer is to blame. They have a windows tool to check it, but I've no winbox here right now. Until I run their tool and eliminated my machine as the source of the problem, they won't help me pinpoint the problem. What can I do to pinpoint the problem, or at least discount my machine and my router as problematic? Thanks. Dotan Cohen http://what-is-what.com
