Rhythmbox-WARNING -
by Bob Goodwin
As part of my experimenting with NFS I tried playing music from box6
[server] on box9 using rhythmbox. It played for a couple of minutes
and abruptly shut down.
[bobg@box9 ~]$ rhythmbox
(rhythmbox:12108): Rhythmbox-WARNING **: Unable to grab media player
keys: Could not get owner of name 'org.gnome.SettingsDaemon': no
such name
Obviously there is some configuration problem but I don't know where
to look.
Xmms works as expected so the problem appears to be with rhythmbox.
Any help appreciated.

Fc9 rhythmbox - magnatune catalog download failure
by Gregory P. Ennis
Rhythmbox Fans,
I have an 2.6.27.24-78.2.53.fc9.i686 laptop system and for some reason
the magnatune plugin of rhythmbox stopped downloading their catalog.
I have have done a yum remove rhythmbox and renamed the following
directories so there would be no confusion on a reinstall :
/home/user/.cache/rhythmbox
/home/user/.gconf/apps/rhythmbox
/home/user/.gnome2/rhythmbox
I have done a reinstall by yum install rhythmbox
I still can not get magnatune plugin to download its catalog.
The other features of rhythmbox work fine.
I have other machines in the same subnet that download songs from
magnatune without difficulty.
Any ideas?

OpenVPN on Windows client
by Timothy Murphy
I've been using openvpn happily on various Fedora and CentOS machines,
but I was thinking of adding a Windows XP client.
All the examples I have seen on Windows-oriented HOWTOs
use tap, as opposed to tun.
(a) Must one use tap on Windows machines? and
(b) If so, does one have to go over to tap on the Linux server,
and so on all machines?

Thank you.
Can you give a specific example of
ssh yourserver
What would be the "yourserver"?

i'm sorry but i have to ask -- do you actually know what the "ssh"
command is supposed to do? seriously, asking how to use "ssh",
reproducing the sample line "ssh yourserver" and asking what to put in
place of "yourserver" is like saying, "i want to log into another
machine with telnet. help tells me that the command is 'telnet
othermachine'. what do i use for 'othermachine'?"
i apologize if that sounds harsh but, given that you've asked the
same trivial question about four times now, i'm not convinced that
you're ready for ssh.

Common F11 Bugs
by Paul W. Frields
Hello list,
All software has bugs. Some are known, and some are unknown.
Fortunately with free/libre and open source software, we have the
ability to diagnose and understand bugs.
In advance of Fedora 11 release, of course everyone has been hard at
work stomping out bugs, but there are still issues we know are not
fixed in the release. For many of these we have workarounds. We've
made a wiki page that records these bugs:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Common_F11_bugs
Please make use of this page for your benefit and others on the list.
If you find what you believe to be a bug that is *not* on that list,
please refer to the section on that page, near the top, for
instructions on how to file it:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Common_F11_bugs#My_bug_is_not_listed
Thank you and we hope you will enjoy Fedora 11!

Ear Candy makes your Gnome Desktop a little bit smarter
by Valent Turkovic
http://kernelreloaded.blog385.com/index.php/archives/give-me-some-fedora-...
Ear Candy looks like a fabulous usability feature that I would love to
see on Fedora as a default (F12 maybe?).
This simple utility sits in your traybar, watches on the windows on
your desktop and manages the sounds for you. Let’s say for example
you’re listening some music. Then suddenly a skype call comes. Ear
Candy will lower the music automatically for you until the skype call
is ended. Same (with fries) for movies and whatever else you want.
Ear candy features a nice configuration panel which lets you configure
settings for each application. Since the preset apps are very few, you
may want to add new ones. In order to do that, open that app, make it
produce some sound, then click the “+” button and select it from the
list you see.
For more info check out these two blog post:
