zdump - where is it?
by Temlakos 03 Mar '07

03 Mar '07

Where is zdump? I've typed that command several times, as an ordinary user and as root, and all I get is: "bash: command not found" Where is that command located, and how can I call it? Or any other time-zone-related command? Temlakos

Any users of S3 Inc. VT8375 [ProSavage8 KM266/KL266]?
by Chris Mohler 02 Mar '07

02 Mar '07

After adding RAM to a box found in thr\e trash, I was pleasantly surprised to discover it's got a Athon XP 2GHz processor on board. ECS mobo, branded by the "eMachines" folk - quite speedy. Now I'm mucking around with the video and wwondered if anyone's gotten DRI to work with this thing. According to lspci: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: S3 Inc. VT8375 [ProSavage8 KM266/KL266] (prog-if 00 [VGA]) Subsystem: Elitegroup Computer Systems Unknown device 0a85 Flags: bus master, 66MHz, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 20 Memory at ed000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=512K] Memory at e0000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=128M] [virtual] Expansion ROM at ec000000 [disabled] [size=64K] Capabilities: [dc] Power Management version 2 Capabilities: [80] AGP version 2.0 glxinfo looks promising, except for one line: libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x4b GL apps (glxinfo, ppracer) fail to render anything, and CPU jumps to 100%. After some research, I'm compiling the git mesa - but any pointers welcome. Thanks, Chris

Firfox long startup solution
by Matthew Saltzman 02 Mar '07

02 Mar '07

I recall a recent thread complaining that after the recent update, Fx was slow to load the first time. I can't find it just now, though, so I can't connect this back to that thread. But... After the change in version, Firefox libs are no longer preloaded by readahead, because the directory listing in /etc/readahead.d/default.later is the wrong version. This is an interaction between the readahead RPM and the Fx RPM. The solution is to change references to /usr/lib/firefox-1.5.0.9 to /usr/lib/firefox-1.5.0.10 in default.later. The real solution is to have readahead.d files packaged with the program RPMs (or at least have the firefox RPM update default.later), but I don't know the details of how that would work. -- Matthew Saltzman Clemson University Math Sciences mjs AT clemson DOT edu http://www.math.clemson.edu/~mjs

by Jim 02 Mar '07

02 Mar '07

http://avasys.jp/ The site is in Japanese, at top right hand corner click on 'English' Has a rpm driver for Fedora for the newer Epson printers that cups doesn't have yet. You have to install the RPM into cups. and the location of download for your selected printer is the instruction file, be sure to download. I have a newer Epson Stylus Photo R260 I need to setup , but instruction are confusing. If someone should succeed please leave feedback. Jim

Dear All I had grub installed in the disk hda, but I have meanwhile formatted hda. How can I re-install grub again in hda? I am using a Knoppix and I do not have access to hde, the disk where Fedora is installed, because I cannot boot into it. Thanks in advance, Paul

Evolution request to firefox-1.5.0.10-1.fc6 to show a URL fails
by Jonathan Ryshpan 02 Mar '07

02 Mar '07

When I click on a URL in Evolution (usually highlighted in blue), firefox does not show the corresponding web page. The problem is new since I upgraded to firefox-1.5.0.10-1.fc6. Starting Evolution from a shell shows the following interesting log. (The last message repeats every time I request Evolution to get the URL displayed.) $ evolution CalDAV Eplugin starting up ... evolution-shell-Message: Killing old version of evolution-data-server... ** (evolution:3613): DEBUG: mailto URL command: evolution --component=mail %s ** (evolution:3613): DEBUG: mailto URL program: evolution libnm_glib_nm_state_cb: dbus returned an error. (org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown) The name org.freedesktop.NetworkManager was not provided by any .service files (evolution:3613): evolution-mail-WARNING **: gnome_url_show: There was an error launching the default action command associated with this location. Has anyone else seen this problem. Is there a solution other than reloading the last version of firefox? Thanks - jon

Re: Fdisk and mount disagree?

I've done this to myself a few times. Using fdisk to rewrite the partition type brings consistency (and automountability) without destroying the data on my usb drive. -- Steven I.
