Striata Reader & FC 10
by Leon Vergottini
Hi
I am trying to install Striata reader in order to open some documents.
If I try to install with KPackageKit it tells me that it requires a GPG
key. So I tried yum and disabled the GPG check in the yum.conf file.
Striata then installs fine, but as soon as you run the program it just
hangs.
I am trying to install striata-reader-1.0-27-linux-2.4-intel.rpm package
which I have downloaded from the Striata site itself.
I also downloaded the Windows version and install it with Wine, but no
luck there either.
Can anyone help, please?
Regards
Leon

Customised F10 iso with updated packages - how?
by mike cloaked
I decided naively that it would be nice to make a new version of the f10 DVD
iso that included the packages that were updated since F10 release - a
personal re-spin if you like. However despite trying to google for jigdo
options, as well as revisor and pungi I am now rather confused as to whether
it is a job that can be done without too much effort.
What I naively thought was that I could loop mount the original F10 DVD iso
and then run jigdo-file to create a modified iso using the rpm files in
/var/cache/yum/updates/packages/ to generate new .jigdo and .template files
that could then be used by jigdo-lite to generate a respin iso - but it
seems that it is not as simple as that! Perhaps I just did not understand
the documentation I read!
Can anyone point me to a howto that will allow me to create this kind of
"more-current" f10 iso so that further installs on other machines might
a) avoid having to run yum update to pull in lots of files, and only a small
number in updates repors since I create the new iso after the install and
b) avoid some of the known serious bugs such as the scsi disk non-bootable
machine bug with updated nash/mkinitrd
It would be nice if this were possible for a relatively experienced linux
user but who does not have the detailed knowledge about this specific task.
Thanks

Brother color laser printer issues
by Kevin Kempter
Hi all;
I have a network based Brother HL 4040-CN printer.
I tried to set it up with cups via ipp://address/ipp/ but could never
communicate with the printer this way - I keep getting this error:
"Destination printer does not exist!"
I can setup an lpd printer but the colors are all muddy and dark.
Thoughts ?

Miro on F10
by Claude Jones
I've just installed Miro and I can't get video to playback. Originally,
nothing would play. I went into options and switched to gstreamer and that got
the audio going. I've tried all the settings for xine and have installed xine
and all the windows codecs from the mplayer site and I've tried all the
combinations in options. Been googling this for awhile, and keep finding
suggestions to switch to gstreamer, but I've already done that.
Anyone have a suggestion?

Installing Fedora on a Strato root server
by Axel Thimm
Hi,
there is no Fedora image yet at Strato for having a Fedora
server. What do you do in order to install Fedora on a Strato server?
I thought of copying over the pxe images and booting into a kickstart
controlled install from my personal servers, or maybe even using
koan/cobbler? What's the most elegant/efficient way?
Thanks!

I would like to play this game on my new x86_64 box. Since this is a
32bit game I would assume I would need mesa i386 packages. Any this else
I should be aware of?
