Wither pirut?
by G.Wolfe Woodbury 08 May '08

08 May '08

Why has pirut been dumped? According to the wiki, it was supposed to remain as an alternative to Package-kit but it has been obsoleted and removed from rawhide and the preview release completely. Someone in a position to know needs to explain the vendetta that has left us with the POS that is gnome-packagekit. -- Wolfe

Kernel 2.6.23 hangs at "starting udev ..."
by Forcey 08 May '08

08 May '08

Hi All, I tried to install F8 on one of my servers, but it hangs at "starting udev..." when booting. Kernel 2.6.23 for F7 has the same problem. Now I'm still running the old 2.6.21-1 kernel, but I'm not comfortable with it since there's a nf_conntrack bug. My hardware is listed as following: [root@neon ~]# lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 5000V Chipset Memory Controller Hub (rev b1) 00:02.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 5000 Series Chipset PCI Express x8 Port 2-3 (rev b1) 00:08.0 System peripheral: Intel Corporation 5000 Series Chipset DMA Engine (rev b1) 00:10.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 5000 Series Chipset FSB Registers (rev b1) 00:10.1 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 5000 Series Chipset FSB Registers (rev b1) 00:10.2 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 5000 Series Chipset FSB Registers (rev b1) 00:11.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 5000 Series Chipset Reserved Registers (rev b1) 00:13.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 5000 Series Chipset Reserved Registers (rev b1) 00:15.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 5000 Series Chipset FBD Registers (rev b1) 00:16.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 5000 Series Chipset FBD Registers (rev b1) 00:1c.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 631xESB/632xESB/3100 Chipset PCI Express Root Port 1 (rev 09) 00:1d.0 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 631xESB/632xESB/3100 Chipset UHCI USB Controller #1 (rev 09) 00:1d.1 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 631xESB/632xESB/3100 Chipset UHCI USB Controller #2 (rev 09) 00:1d.2 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 631xESB/632xESB/3100 Chipset UHCI USB Controller #3 (rev 09) 00:1d.3 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 631xESB/632xESB/3100 Chipset UHCI USB Controller #4 (rev 09) 00:1d.7 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 631xESB/632xESB/3100 Chipset EHCI USB2 Controller (rev 09) 00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 PCI Bridge (rev d9) 00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation 631xESB/632xESB/3100 Chipset LPC Interface Controller (rev 09) 00:1f.1 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 631xESB/632xESB IDE Controller (rev 09) 00:1f.2 SATA controller: Intel Corporation 631xESB/632xESB SATA AHCI Controller (rev 09) 00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corporation 631xESB/632xESB/3100 Chipset SMBus Controller (rev 09) 01:00.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 6311ESB/6321ESB PCI Express Upstream Port (rev 01) 01:00.3 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 6311ESB/6321ESB PCI Express to PCI-X Bridge (rev 01) 02:00.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 6311ESB/6321ESB PCI Express Downstream Port E1 (rev 01) 02:02.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 6311ESB/6321ESB PCI Express Downstream Port E3 (rev 01) 04:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 80003ES2LAN Gigabit Ethernet Controller (Copper) (rev 01) 04:00.1 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 80003ES2LAN Gigabit Ethernet Controller (Copper) (rev 01) 05:02.0 RAID bus controller: Silicon Image, Inc.

F9 - Network interface disabled after each reboot
by Christopher Mocock 08 May '08

08 May '08

Hi, I'm having a strange problem with Fedora 9 Preview. At first I couldn't get my network port to be configured by Network Manager. There are no details of it in the NetworkManager configuration screens and I can't "Add" it as all the buttons are greyed out. Frustrated by the inability to do anything with NM, I decided instead to use system-config-network. The NIC is listed there so I configured it, made sure to check the "start interface on boot" button. Unticked the box which lets NetworkManager control the interface. Now when I activate the interface in system-config-network, it works fine, but every time I reboot it's disabled again. I've tried unchecking the "Enable Networking" button in NetworkManager but that makes no difference - and annoyingly is always checked again after a reboot. System-wise, I started with the F9 Preview and have done a couple of yum updates so I'm up-to-date. The onboard NIC is an Intel 82562EZ 10/100 (e100 module). Any ideas why this might be happening? Is Network Manager likely to be the culprit, and if so, is it fairly safe to uninstall? Thanks in advance, -- Chris Mocock

RPM Commands
by Thomas Paine 08 May '08

08 May '08

Is there an rpm command I can run to clean up the old rpm files on my system? Something like rpm -qa | grep fc4 -exec rpm -e {} \; I want to remove all the old FC4 rpms that are on my system before I upgrade from FC6 to 8. Thanks. -- -=/>Thom

Nagios yum install
by Mike Morraye 08 May '08

08 May '08

Dear List, I just installed nagios on my Fedora 8 trough Yum. (standard repo's) Now it seems that the rpm installs in different dir's than what you're expected to do while installing from source. Now it's quite hard to follow the official nagios manual, and i can't seem to find modified ones. What should I do?

High availability on two boxes
by Uno Engborg 07 May '08

07 May '08

Hi, I'm experimenting with a HA setup on two physical boxes. The idea is to create virtual Xen machines that automagically do live migration from one physical box to the other in case of e.g. a hardware failure on one of the physial boxes. My idea is to create a software raid of networked block devices and real disks. I.e: Box A: Software raid consisting of: Physical disk in box A Nework block device exported from box B Box B: Software raid consisting of: Physical disk in box B Network block device exported from box A On top of this I plan t use GFS2 and a cluster that handles the migration of the virtual machines. Any comments on this, would this work, or would it result in deadlock? What about quorum disk? I suppose I need one? Most setup of these kind of things usually have their storage on a separate SAN, but as this is mostly for experimentation and testing purposes, I would hope that I could do without that for now. What would be the best way to export the network block devices? I'm thinking iSCSI or GNDB? If this doesn't look like a good idea, are there any other way to do this. Regards Uno Engborg

openldap + kmail
by Timothy Murphy 07 May '08

07 May '08

Is anyone successfully using openldap to maintain an address book? As far as I can see, if you save kaddressbook data in LDIF format, the resulting file has to be extensively modified before it becomes acceptable to openldap. Eg the DN of a typical entry in the LDIF file reads dn: cn=Andrew Ryan,mail=aryan27(a)tcd.ie which openldap certainly will not like. What puzzles me about this is that the issue must be one which occurs to many people. How is one meant to keep a "global" address book under Fedora? Incidentally, the KMail handbook claims that there is some way of using MySQL with the address book, but I have never seen any explanation of how to do this.
