Firefox 2.0.0.17 on fedora 8 and delicious add-on
by Ambrogio De Lorenzo 23 Oct '08

23 Oct '08

Hi all, I'm trying to install the plugin for the delicious bookmarks. I receive the error that says that firefox can't install it because it is unable to verify signature. I installed instead the simplydelicious addons (that is unsigned). I can't understand how is possible to install signed plugins. Tnx in advance for help. I didn't find it on delicious forum and also with search on internet. Bye Ambrogio

LVM resize sanity check
by brian 23 Oct '08

23 Oct '08

I have a /tmp volume that I'd like to increase. I've been having a look at the LVM HOWTO [1] and various other pages online and think I've got it figured out. Those being famous last words, I thought I'd check here first. # parted /dev/sda print Model: ATA Maxtor 6Y080L0 (scsi) Disk /dev/sda: 82.0GB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B Partition Table: msdos Number Start End Size Type File system Flags 1 32.3kB 107MB 107MB primary ext3 boot 2 107MB 82.0GB 81.8GB primary lvm # df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00 19G 4.5G 14G 26% / /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol02 24G 8.5G 14G 38% /home /dev/sda1 99M 19M 76M 20% /boot tmpfs 744M 0 744M 0% /dev/shm /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol05 4.8G 540M 4.0G 12% /usr/local /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol04 19G 6.3G 12G 35% /var /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol03 961M 18M 894M 2% /tmp /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol06 3.8G 194M 3.4G 6% /opt I'd like to reduce /var first to free up some space, then give that to /tmp using: # umount /var # e2fsck -f /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol04 # resize2fs /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol04 13G # lvreduce -L-6G /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol04 # mount /var # umount /tmp # e2fsck -f /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol03 # lvextend -L+6G /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol03 # resize2fs /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol03 # mount /tmp Does that ring any alarm bells?

quickest solution to a DVD player on f9 on a WUXGA laptop?
by Robert P. J. Day 23 Oct '08

23 Oct '08

on very short notice, i've been asked to put f9 on my old dell inspiron WUXGA 9200, and install a DVD player to drive a WUXGA projector just to test the video. so, what's the quickest/fastest solution, after i install stock f9, to get a DVD player that will play in fullscreen just to test the video quality? my first guess is VLC from livna, but i'm open to anything that's even simpler. i don't need fancy controls or anything, i just need to be able to drive a full WUXGA signal out to an external video sink to see the results. thanks. rday

Using Alcatel X020 USB HSDPA MODEM in Fedora 9
by gpptms＠tiscali.it 23 Oct '08

23 Oct '08

Hi, I'm in trouble with using Alcatel X020 HSDPA USB MODEM (VendorID 0x1c9e; ProductID 0x1001) in Fedora 9. For my system it is a Mass Storage Unit, and so I can't use it like modem. Is there some driver for it in fedora 9? Or is it possible to get the driver source somewhere? Thank you to all.

by Arthur Pemberton 23 Oct '08

23 Oct '08

Many people seem to have different issues with NetworkManager. I would like to attempt to assist with the progress of NetworkManager by collecting use cases which it does not cover at all or properly. So please reply with a use case that you have that is not covered, I will attempt to collect clarify and log them on the wiki (just reactivated my account). For my sake please do one use case per email. -- Fedora 9 : sulphur is good for the skin ( www.pembo13.com )

changing hdparm default values
by Martín Marqués 23 Oct '08

23 Oct '08

I've changed some HD values on my laptop, due to the clicking issue of hard disks. The thing is that every time I reboot I have to pass againg the values I want with hdparm, and I can't find where to configure the default values of hdparm in Fedora 9. /etc/hdparm.conf doesn't exist, and I found nothing in /etc/sysconfig/. I know I can put the hdparm lines I want in /etc/rc.local and they will get executed after booting, but I don't see this as an elegant solution. Any ideas? -- Martín Marqués select 'martin.marques' || '@' || 'gmail.com' DBA, Programador, Administrador
