Fedora 12 LXDE Spin available for download
by Christoph Wickert
Better late than never: The Fedora 12 LXDE Spin has arrived!
Sorry it took so long. While the actual problems [1] were solved within
2 days, it took a little longer to create the new ISO images. FESCo, the
Fedora Steering Committee, had to decide how to proceed with the new
images. The decision was scheduled for last weeks FESCo meeting, but due
to Thanksgiving and the holidays the meeting was canceled. Instead, we
voted in Trac [2], but as you all now a ticket system is not as fast as
a real time IRC meeting.
After that Jesse composed the new images and we needed to test them to
make sure we hit any bugs again. Testing was positive and now we have
the new images available for download at
http://spins.fedoraproject.org/lxde/
Grab them while they are still hot!
I apologize once again for the delay and would like to thank everybody
for his patience. A big thanks goes out to Jesse for supporting me.
I now declare this bazar opened!
Regards,
Christoph

Terminator (Gnome)
by Chris
Greetings,
I love the above mentioned app - and in older versions I used to use,
it never displayed a pop-up when ya close it.
It just simply displays a black rectangle in the upper right hand
corner of your screen with the unforgettable blurb, "I'll be back".
Anyways, without recompiling from source, has anyone found a way to
turn this off? I have not seen it mentioned in the Terminator man page
nor is it in the terminator_config man page.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Best regards,
Chris

Evolution hyperlinks fail in KDE
by John A. Sullivan III
Hello, all. Over the last couple of years, our admiration for RedHat has
grown as we've seen them really walk the walk of Open Source. We are
thus experimenting with replacing our Ubuntu desktops with Fedora
although the end of life schedule still concerns us a bit.
In our first go, we are experiencing problems with Evolution. We are
running fully patched Fedora 12 on amd64 with KDE. We are using
Evolution as the mail client. When we click on hyperlinks in Evolution,
we get an error message: Could not open the link. Operation not
supported.
In the past, we have had to go to the Gnome Control Center and set the
default browser, typically to firefox. However, when we check the Gnome
Control Center, the default browser is set to firefox.
stdout/stderr shows:
[jsullivan@jaspav ~]$ evolution
** (evolution:7015): DEBUG: mailto URL command: evolution
--component=mail %s
** (evolution:7015): DEBUG: mailto URL program: evolution

Where do we look to troubleshoot this further? Thanks - John

Makefile for lib64 libraries
by Steve Searle
I have just upgraded to 64-bit Fedora, and have a mysql appliation where
the build fails with:
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lmysqlclient
I know that this is because the library is in lib64, and my Makefile.am
contains:
bin_PROGRAMS = scraperes
scraperes_SOURCES = main.cpp ...
AM_CPPFLAGS = -I/usr/include/mysql
AM_LDFLAGS = -L/usr/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient
I know I can edit this to have lib64, but what can I do to make it work
for both 64-bit and 32-bit operating systems?

OpenOffice and mailmerge to email
by SternData
AARGH! I spent over an hour this morning on trying to get the mail
merge wizard in OpenOffice to show a "send" button, in addition to save
and print. The mailmerge package is installed, java is installed and
recognized, but OO just won't admit that it can do a merge to email.
Abashed and ashamed, I booted into Windows and got the necessary stuff
done in 5 minutes with Word and Outlook. I really want this to work in
Fedora.
Help!

OpenGL test or screen savers wanted for F12
by Aaron Gray
Hi,
I have a machine that turns itself off at random when booting or running
Windows XP.
It runs F12 fine once started and compiles GCC okay.
What I was wondering if it is some MMX or extra CPU functionality that it is
crashing on.
What I am after is a yum package that uses F12 either a game or a screen
saver.
Many thanks in advance,
Aaron

qmmp x86_64 dependency problem
by Mikkel
Have others run into the problem where the qmmp x86_64 update wants
to drag in a bunch of .i686 packages as dependencies when you try to
upgrade it? I already have all the 64 bit equivalents installed and
the installed qmmp 64 bit package works fine.
