Thanks for the suggestions but I would really like to figure out what happened and what is the correct way to configure fuse. Does anyone have a link to some fuse docs? I'm getting ready to upgrade to F9 but I'm waiting until the EOL date in case someone at RedHat decides to take at look at this bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=218181 and I'd like to have my configuration correct before I upgrade.

using fedora and a decent laptop to build an "image generator"?
by Robert P. J. Day 31 Dec '08

31 Dec '08

as a more general query encompassing some of the questions i've been asking lately regarding video, does anyone have any advice on using f10 and a decently-equipped laptop to create a basic video image generator? at a bare minimum, i need to be able to pump out WUXGA video on an external port (DVI, HDMI or possibly the newer display port). beyond that, in order to test external video equipment, i'd dearly love to be able to adjust the refresh rate (from 60Hz down, possibly as low as 50Hz, just to see the effect on some hardware). in terms of colour correction, i can see that xorg.conf already gives me the freedom to adjust gamma values in Monitor sections, so that's useful. and additional software that lets me examine/adjust video timings would be most excellent. anyway, you get the idea. has anyone been doing this sort of thing in aid of video manipulation? thanks. rday p.s. obviously, if there's a particular distro that is strong in this area, i'm sure you'd be happy to tell me about it, even if it isn't fedora. :-) ======================================================================== Robert P.

ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link not ready
by Marland V. Pittman 31 Dec '08

31 Dec '08

Hello Fedora Users. I recently did an installation on my workstation, dual, dual-core opterons on an Asus KFN5-D SLI with two 8800GS cards in SLI. Previous versions of Fedora have gone okay, with the usual quirks that have to get worked through, but I'd like some help with this one. I installed from a Live USB, added the RPMFusion repos, and did a su -c 'yum-install kmod-nvidia'. Rebooted, and got these messages: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link not ready ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth1: link not ready Then, I can't get any further. I'm stuck... bootup stops. I ran across this thread at the FedoraForum.org forums: http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=205439 I have two on-board network interfaces, so at least having both eth0 and eth1 makes sense. I applied a bit of google-fu, and it seem like some sort of problem with udev not assgning network interfaces the same way each time it boots, but I don't really understand the problem or solution. I'm guessing I could get past it by disabling the network interfaces, but that'd be less than ideal. I've got a couple of network cards I could stick in to try, but I'd expect them to work, since they work in other OSes and previous installations of Fedora. A bit more searching makes me believe it's an IPv6 vs IPv4 problem, but I don't really understand that either. Maybe the hardware on this particular workstation won't do IPv6. I'm just using a consumer-grade Netgear Router, and residential DSL. I tried changing to a ClarkConnect box, but that didn't work either. Since I installed from USB, I don't know if I need to pass something on the anaconda/kernel argument line to install with "noipv6" as listed in (http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Anaconda/Options) but I'm less inclined to figure out how, download and burn DVD media, and then install, just to update and find the same problem. Has anyone come up against this, reported a bug, or have a solution that can help? I'd appreciate it. I'm willing to provide any additional info necessary.

ssh-agent startup
by Guillaume 31 Dec '08

31 Dec '08

Hi, For now, when I want to use ssh-agent, i have to open a shell, and then use this command 'ssh-agent /bin/bash' to be able to use the ssh-agent fonctionnality. I would like to know if there is a tip to start ssh-agent at user login. Like editing /etc/passwd an adding in the "shell field" /usr/bin/ssh-agent /bin/bash like that : ***/etc/passwd*** user:x:500:500::/home/user:/usr/bin/ssh-agent /bin/bash And by the way avoiding multi nested bash execution, avoid user to type this command or multiple edit/modify of .bashrc of all my users. thanks for your help. -- Guillaume

F10 yun-cron Skip-broken by default?
by Frank Murphy 31 Dec '08

31 Dec '08

How can yum-cron be used with --skip-broken by default. Have looked at yum-cron.conf RUN_PARAMETERS= but am uncertain if it goes there, as most other switches seem to be yes\no variety. Is skip-broken=1 within yum.conf sufficient? Frank

alternatives for java_sdk?
by Caitlyn O'Hanna 31 Dec '08

31 Dec '08

I've encountered some oddities with the way that java is setup on my F10 system while trying to learn some java stuff. When I try to run `mvn jetty:run` I get the following exception over and over: """ java.lang.ClassCastException: gnu.java.nio.ServerSocketChannelImpl cannot be cast to java.nio.channels.SocketChannel """ I've traced that back to '/usr/lib/jvm/java' pointing to '/etc/alternatives/java_sdk' and that pointing to '/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-gcj'. When I do a `alternatives --config java` it shows '/usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.6.0-openjdk.x86_64/bin/java'. Typing `java -version` shows the correct version, but `/usr/lib/jvm/java/jre/bin/java -version` shows 1.5.0. On my F9 system the last command shows 1.6.0. I do have JPackage 5.0 (generic) stuff installed on both systems, and I have it set as an enabled repository normally. I've tried `alternatives --set java_sdk /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.6.0-openjdk.x86_64`, which is the path my F9 system is showing, but that didn't work. Anyone have any ideas why this is set this way and how to fix it other than manually changing the symlinks? Thanks! --Caitlyn

HUP doesn't send to processes when logout
by 平天韩 30 Dec '08

30 Dec '08

hi, It seems that when I logout from the console, the background process doesn't get HUP signal: { trap "echo Ignore HUP >>/tmp/trap.out" 1; while sleep 3;do echo hello >>/tmp/hello.txt;done; }& And it seems it will become a daemon and run forever until rebooting. Is this correct? Why it didn't get HUP signal? Thanks!

HTTP file sharing in KDE4
by Marcelo Magno T. Sales 30 Dec '08

30 Dec '08

People, In KDE 3.5.x there was a kicker applet named kpf, which was very useful for sharing files using HTTP in a quick and easy way. Using it, we could select a folder and make its contents instantly available in a simple HTTP server, or even run several instances of kpf at once to share multiple folders. Is there a replacement for it in KDE4? Thanks, Marcelo
