spamassassin record score?
by Steve Siegfried 31 Jan '07

31 Jan '07

Folks, But I've got a question: what's the highest spam score anybody has seen spamassassin assign any particular email (without local fudging for "I never wanna hear from this guy again")? I only keep a month's worth of spam in my just-in-case-it-isn't-spam folders and so far, the highest score I've seen is 69.0. Can anybody top that, and if so, could you post the X-spam-* headers?

RE: cron problem
by kwhiskerz kwhiskerz 31 Jan '07

Thanks, makes sense.However, on my home computer, it is more vital that jobs are run when I say they should be run, and not according to a random formula. If the football game starts at 1630, I don't care to be reminded up to 68 minutes afterward :-)I guess there's no harm in removing that 000-delay.cron job, eh?kwhiskerz{Date: Tue, 30 Jan 2007 15:14:26 -0500From: pepebuho(a)gmail.comTo: fedora-list(a)redhat.comSubject: Re: cron problemOftentimes, Cron is used to setup communication with other servers to update Clamav or Spamassassin, maybe to run Yum check-update.

"isolinux: disk error 04" while trying to install
by Rakhesh Sasidharan 30 Jan '07

30 Jan '07

Hi there, I'm trying to install Fedora Core 6 to an HP Compaq something machine (don't remm the exact model etc, it was a friend's machine) and I get the following error: "isolinux: disk error 04, AX=4280, drive 9F". I insert the first install CD, it shows me the menu where I can choose options, I press ENTER, I get the message that says "loading linux", then "loading initrd", followed by a bunch of dots, and then the whole thing just waits for upto a minute. Finally I get the error message above. I know the CDs are fine coz I've used them to install FC6 on a bunch of other machines. And I know the CD drive of the machine in question too is fine coz I have installed other Linuces on it. Maybe its something to do with the interaction between the FC CD and this particular CD drive ... dunno. I'm too lazy to take out the CD drive and try with another one. So I am wondering if I can install FC6 from a floppy (that machine has a floppy drive). The install docs don't talk about installing from floppies ... is that still possible, or do I have to boot through USB? I wonder why I am getting this error though ... strange. Thanks in advance for any thoughts/ suggestions ... Regards, Rakhesh

Re: Dual boots (MS Windows and Fedora) with 3 hard disks (2nd post)
by McBroom, Robert C 30 Jan '07

30 Jan '07

Looks like you're having a problem with mixing the two disk hardware types. I've had a similar problem with a mother board that had an early ide 133 bus in addition to a ide 100 bus. Try using the boot.ini in the windows 2003 to boot your XP. Here is a sample I use to boot multiple XP installs. Note the line for the sdb drive. The quoted phrase is information for use when the boot loader is active. [boot loader] timeout=30 default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(3)\WINDOWS [operating systems] multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(4)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP 3sda5 Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP 3sdb1 Professional" /fastdetect /NoExecute=OptIn multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(3)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP 3sda3 Professional" /fastdetect /NoExecute=OptIn Robert McBroom

[OT] TeXLive 2007
by Michael A. Peters 30 Jan '07

30 Jan '07

TeXLive 2007 Has not been officially released yet, but it is getting very close. >From the TeXLive list, I'm guessing very early Feb. It seems like it is mostly frozen and the current test release is only going to be slightly modified if at all. As I'm sure most TeX users on this list are aware, teTeX is not being upstream maintained anymore, what direction Fedora will choose to take I don't know. But teTeX is virtually the same macro code base as TeXLive 2004 and is thus rather crusty, lot of macros have had signifigant updates. In preparation for TeXLive 2007 I've written a small guide for installing it in FC6 (using a test release). Comments on it, including the negative kind, are most welcome. It's at the second half of a page I'm writing for FC6 Thinkpad T20 notes. Yes, I'm aware of some grammer issues that need fixin' - it still is a work in progress. But if anything glares "wrong" or "it would be better done this way" I'd love to hear it. You can respond off-list - mpeters(a)mac.com The (quite un-official) TeXLive 2007 installation procedure: http://mpeters.us/tplinux/thinkpad.html#texlive (page uses JavaScript - but if you are running a script blocker like I do, you don't need to allow my site - the JavaScript is minimal and is not essential)

umount wonkiness
by Ashley M. Kirchner 30 Jan '07

30 Jan '07

I don't know if this ties in the string of NFS4 issues I've been seeing lately, but here's my puzzle for the day: # mount -t nfs -o rw,hard,itnr storage:/storage /mnt/storage That works like a charm. I can get into /mnt/storage and dive into whatever folder I want to on there. Now, let's try to unmount it: # umount /mnt/storage umount.nfs: storage:/storage: not found / mounted or server not reachable umount.nfs: storage:/storage: not found / mounted or server not reachable Um, what gives? I can't unmount it. -- W | It's not a bug - it's an undocumented feature. +-------------------------------------------------------------------- Ashley M.

Inconsistent behaviour of menus
by Alexander Volovics 30 Jan '07

30 Jan '07

If you click on 'Applications', 'Places' or 'System' on the panel you can, seemingly at random, get: - the full menu - a truncated menu with scroll arrows The same goes when clicking on the menu entries. I find this behaviour irritating and would very much like to get the full menu every time. Does anybody know why this happens and if it is possible to configure this somewhere? Alexander
