active connection problem
by 최용주
Dear All.
I installed the Fedora 9 and set the IP address, netmask, gateway, so on…
But after installation the active connection information is not a setting I
made.
How to change the ip address?
And the network device control was setting as I set.

Font rendering problem in F8 KDE
by mike cloaked
Until today the rendering of text in KDE3.5 in F8 was OK...
I went to the KDE Control Centre and changed the font settings -
Once I restarted an app the text rendering was awful... after logging
back in to KDE all text fonts are rendered badly. I set them to DejaVu Sans 10
apart from the fixed width which is DejaVu Sans mono 10, and Window Title which
is DejaVu Sans 12.
I set the fonts back to what I thought they were before but the fonts
are now awful and ugly. I seem to be unable to use antialiasing since if
I set to enabled and then open the configure dialogue then I cannot select
"ue sub-pixel hinting" - the check box won't activate!
I seem to remember having some similar problem way back in F7 or earlier but
I don't know where to start in trying to fix this...
Can someone offer any suggestions to get this fixed?
Thanks

This message comes back from all mirror sites. This is now happening for the

eSATA drive won't mount. Wrong data rate ?
by linux guy
Some of this was previously discussed in the "External eSATA drive
doesn't fdisk properly ? F8 eSATA hotplug ?" thread.
Computer: HP hdx9494. T8100 processor, 4 GB RAM, running 32 bit Fedora
8.
Drive: Azio SATA/USB enclosure, Hitachi 500GB 3.5" hard drive. The
drive works excellent under USB access.

If I shut the machine off, power up the external drive and then boot the
computer, I get the following in /var/logs/messages:

If I run hwbrowser and look at it, it shows the drive under sdc with the
correct geometry and such, but without a partition, ie no sdc1 or file
sizes.
So it appears to be recognized by the computer on some level.
However, if I mount it with "mount /dev/sdc1 temp" or "mount
-text3 /dev/sdc1 temp", the console will hang for a minute or so before
returning without any errors. However, the drive is unusable (ls
returns an empty directory) and /var/logs/messages shows the following:

One thing that sticks out for me in all this is the SATA data rate.
Both the computer and the drive are supposed to be 3.0Gb/s devices. Yet
the driver wants to connect at 1.5 Gbps.
The Serial ATA Controller is listed as ahci in hwbrowser.
# /sbin/lsmod | grep sat
sata_sil24 16069 0
libata 131937 3 ata_piix,sata_sil24,ahci
How should I proceed to get my external drive working ?
Thanks

Nvidia drivers, screen redraws
by Reid Rivenburgh
The combination of Gnome and fvwm has been working well for me (though
it ain't easy to configure!). I used kde for several years, though,
so I thought I'd check out the latest (F9, 4.1.1). It definitely
seems better than the early 4.0 releases in terms of polish and
goodies, but one thing I noticed is that switching desktops is
relatively slow. If it's a desktop with firefox on it, it'll take 3-4
seconds to redraw the firefox window. With fvwm, it's less than a
second. Turning off the nifty desktop effects helps some. Now, I
also tried switching to the nvidia driver from livna at the same time,
so that could be a factor, though it is still fast with nvidia drivers
and fvwm. I admit I haven't tried the combo of xorg driver and kde.
Seems like I've seen some web page glitchiness when scrolling, too.
Just curious if anyone has any comments on this behavior. (At this
point, though, I'm happy to go back to fvwm/gnome, what with the
little issues and feeling like it'd be quite a bit of work to set
things up the way I like them.)
The computer is about six months old: core duo 8400, 4 GB memory,
GeForce 8600 GTS, 64-bit packages.
Thanks,
reid

display hw info from command line
by Mark Haney
I know there are several semi-related tools for displaying hardware
installed in a system, and I can use all those if I must. But what I"m
interested in is any new tools that can compile and display the hardware
installed in a server or export it to a text file in an easy to read format.
I've been looking at sysinfo, hwinfo and others, but most of those seem
dead development wise. So are there any recent ones I"ve missed?

Boot hangs on modprobe errors
by Laura Speck
Hi all,
I have a fresh install of Fedora 9 on a Dell poweredge 2650. Install
went fine, no errors or warnings. Rebooted it, and it hangs after:
serial 00:06: unable to assign resources
Red Hat nash version 6.0.52 starting
INFO: task modprobe:<number here that I cannot remember> blocked for
more than 120 seconds
"echo 0> /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message.
INFO: task scsi_scan_0:449 blocked for more than 120 seconds
"echo 0> /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message.
We used 32bit fedora 9 to install onto a 3 dish scsi raid5. I am not
sure if this machine is 32bit or 64bit, but I figured 32bit fedora
should work on both?
Rebooted again, and now it's not doing anything. It gave the error
about the serial, then started nash up, but now nothing. And it's been
a half hour.
I am completely clueless right about now and any help would be greatly
appreciated, even a point in the right direction :)

Rawhide installation question.
by Erik P. Olsen
I have tried to install rawhide via anaconda. As mentioned in the docs I
downloaded images/boot.iso and burned it to a dvd but it turned out that the dvd
did not have a boot record. Is it missing or have I misunderstood what I should do?
