problem with Fedora10 to make a respin with Revisor (SELinux issue)
by potat0 25 May '09

25 May '09

Hi all!!, I have a problem with the tool Revisor in Fedora 10 Cambridge. I would like to make my own Live spin with electronics tools but SELinux makes it impossible. I have set SELinus as permissive mode and I made the whole process to make my own spin. All seems to run smoothly but when i start up my own spin and plymouth finished i got this error: "Loading policy SELinux: Could not open policy file -- This is an email sent via The Fedora Community Portal https://fcp.surfsite.org https://fcp.surfsite.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?post_id=346728&topic_i… If you think, this is spam, please report this to webmaster(a)fcp.surfsite.org and/or blame josedaniel_martinez(a)yahoo.es.

kernel update on live CD ??
by Fred Smith 25 May '09

25 May '09

When booted up from a live CD (most recent F11 pre-release), I'm thinking it's impossible to install something that requires a reboot, such as a kernel update. Unless,... one can figure out how to enable persistence. Which I don't know how to do... Clues appreciated. -- ---- Fred Smith -- fredex(a)fcshome.stoneham.ma.us ------------------------ ---- Do you not know? Have you not heard?

snd-hda-intel options in modprobe
by Ambrogio 25 May '09

25 May '09

Hi all, I'm working on my laptop to better use mic, headphone and speaker (internal and external). The laptop is a Vaio VGN-FW11E and the sound card is 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03) Subsystem: Sony Corporation Unknown device 9035 Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 22 Memory at d5200000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K] Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 2 Capabilities: [60] Message Signalled Interrupts: Mask- 64bit+ Queue=0/0 Enable- Capabilities: [70] Express Root Complex Integrated Endpoint, MSI 00 Capabilities: [100] Virtual Channel <?> Capabilities: [130] Root Complex Link <?> Kernel driver in use: HDA Intel Kernel modules: snd-hda-intel 01:00.1 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc RV620 Audio device [Radeon HD 34xx Series] Subsystem: Sony Corporation Unknown device 9035 Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 17 Memory at d0030000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K] Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 3 Capabilities: [58] Express Legacy Endpoint, MSI 00 Capabilities: [a0] Message Signalled Interrupts: Mask- 64bit+ Queue=0/0 Enable- Capabilities: [100] Vendor Specific Information <?> Kernel driver in use: HDA Intel Kernel modules: snd-hda-intel With a standard Fedora 9 installation (updated) I can use the speaker and an external mic. I can use also the camera but not the internal mic (that I think is present near the camera). Alsamixer and kmix do not show options for mic other that "Front mic". When I insert headphone, the speaker continue to sound (and also the headphone). I tried to use other models for hda-intel driver using the options files in /etc/modprobe.d whith options snd-hda-intel model=hippo headphone inserting mute the speaker, but mic do not work kmix shows mic - front mic - line - CD as input source but noone works without an external mic with options snd-hda-intel model=sony-assamd is the same but with less options as input and output. Someone can help my to found the right model? Alsa modules installed are alsa-lib-1.0.17-2.fc9.i386.rpm alsa-utils-1.0.17-2.fc9.i386.rpm tnx to all Ambrogio

Webserver(?) performance issues when accessed through non-server system
by Steven P. Ulrick 24 May '09

24 May '09

Hello Everyone For an issue that is probably pretty simple to fix, it was really hard to come up with a subject that had any relation to the problem... Anyway, here goes. I have a Fedora 8 and a Fedora 10 system hooked up to a cable (Comcast) internet connection through a Linksys router. The Fedora 8 system is relatively old(?): 1.8 GHZ AMD 32bit processor with 1 gig of RAM. The Fedora 8 system also runs a webserver and a mail server. The Fedora 10 system has an Intel Xeon 2Ghz Quad Core Processor with 8 Gigs of RAM. The issue is that when I attempt to access either of the two following locations (both served on on Fedora 8 system I referred to earlier) the pages never stop loading: http://www.afolkey2.net/squirrelmail http://www.afolkey2.net/gallery2/main.php For example, after a few minutes of loading, this is what my Gallery2 installation looks like when viewed in Firefox 3.0.10: http://www.afolkey2.net/~steve/Fedora10-Gallery2atAfolkey2Net.jpg The next screenshot was taken after I ssh'd into my Fedora 8 box and ran Firefox from that box. Here is the result after just a few moments of loading: http://www.afolkey2.net/~steve/Fedora8-Gallery2atAfolkey2Net.jpg My Gallery2 installation also works perfectly at every other computer that I've tried it on. In fact, just this morning I ran some administrative tasks from a Windows 2003 thin client at the place that I work at. I was very pleased with the very zippy performance of my Gallery2 install. So, my humble opinion is that the issue is a network configuration issue on my system, since the two radically different performance scenarios described above are occuring on two systems that are hooked up the the same router. I have a feeling that this is a relatively simple fix, but it is beyond my current skills... So, thank you in advance for any help you can give me. Steven P. Ulrick P.S.: I just remembered that this issue is not confined to Firefox. I have tried all of this with Opera, Konqueror and Dillo, with the same results. (In the case of Dillo, understanding that of course it appears to have no CSS support, so even if the page ever finished loading, it would look markedly different than it is supposed to.

Xorg monitor

Here it will write to /dev/null, but it will also write a message on your screen when it does so. It is actually this message I found interesting to use. What I believe it may tell me is: a) when Xorg die b) when a thead die c) - some indication of the reason -------------------- What I have found is that memory structures get trashed. Xorg seem to write to parts it should leave alone, etc. ( some memory management is missing ) I am running 64bit AMD with ati-radeon. So far, I have seen how this little command seem to report when/why some of the problems occur. Would like some improvement: Pseudo code: loop if not "monitor" attached, write output to file, increment error-counter, attach monitor, endif always ( "monitor" being: strace -o /dev/null -p `pgrep Xorg` ) ------------------------- Some may have some clever idea as how to accomplish this. The *important* point would be if it could be of use for more then myself, and perhaps uncover some of the obstacles we struggle with. //ARNE
