Really excited to see F14 will have Meego ! (car tablet, nav)
by linux guy 06 Oct '10

06 Oct '10

Just a quick note to say that I am really excited to see that F14 is going to include Meego. Why ? I want to put a 10" tablet in my car and the Meego UI is much more suitable than KDE for that application. Having both KDE and Meego on my tablet should be the dope. Use Meego for everyday (car) usage and KDE for use out of the car and/or maintenance. Does it get any better ? Now if only someone would release a high quality 10" tablet. And I need Navit or something similar for nav duty...

wrong "audio" card found?
by Michael Hennebry 06 Oct '10

06 Oct '10

After a recent reboot, I no longer have sound, either with mplayer or with firefox. mplayer "works" with -nosound . I have a Radeon 3600 series video card. I have AC97 sound that I think is built into the motherboard (B865GBFL) and to which my speakers are attached. Apparently the Radeon does audio. lspci lists it twice, once for video and once for audio. lspci also list AC97. My suspicion is that mplayer and firefox are trying to use the Radeon.. How do I tell what they are trying to use? How do I tell them to use AC97? I hate it when things just don't work. -- Michael hennebry(a)web.cs.ndsu.NoDak.edu "Pessimist: The glass is half empty.

Hello, Is there a site somewhere having a comprehensive archive of all Fedora release (RPMs, iso, etc.) that can be rsynced ? archive.fedoraproject.org seems to have everything but I'm not sure it can be rsynced ...

Hardware play-through?
by Samuel Kidman 05 Oct '10

05 Oct '10

Hello All My current audio set up is like this: Turntable --> Phono Input | Amp |Tape/Ext Output ---> Front Mic Input | Computer. I want to complete the chain like so: Turntable --> Phono Input | Amp |Tape/Ext Output ---> Front Mic Input | Computer | Headphones plug ---> Headphones Anyone know how to configure this in FC13? I opened up alsamixer and turned up the volume on all my inputs (Mic 1, Mic 2, Line- another issue here is I only have 2 plugs on my computer but it's seeing three inputs) in the playback section but still can't here anything. I can see signal coming in through my computer though, in Sound Preferences I can set my Input to Microphone 2 and see the signal. I can also record it in audacity and play it back and here it normally (apart from the right channel is missing but I think that's a physical layer issue)

dhcp server setup: client doesn't accept DHCPOFFER
by Hiisi 05 Oct '10

05 Oct '10

Dear all! I'm trying to set up dhcp-server for my home network. This home server has 3 nicks. It's connected to the Internet via eth0 and shares its connection to the LAN hosts on eth1 and eth2 interfaces using IP-forwarding (masquerade). Currently clients have to enter IP manually. I would like it to be set automatically via dhcp. I installed dhcp and modified dhcpd.conf as follows: $ sudo cat /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf # dhcpd.conf ddns-update-style interim; ignore client-updates; # If this DHCP server is the official DHCP server for the local # network, the authoritative directive should be uncommented. authoritative; log-facility local7; subnet 192.168.2.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 { range 192.168.2.30 192.168.2.50; default-lease-time 86400; max-lease-time 86400; option routers 192.168.2.20; option broadcast-address 192.168.2.255; option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0; option domain-name-servers 192.168.0.1; } host ubuntu-virtual { hardware ethernet 08:00:27:84:b7:23; fixed-address 192.168.2.50; } Now I'm testing it on ubuntu virtual machine with no success. When ubuntu tries to connect to the Internet I see this messages in/var/log/messages on the server: Oct 4 13:22:50 kello dhcpd: DHCPDISCOVER from 08:00:27:84:b7:23 via eth1 Oct 4 13:22:50 kello dhcpd: DHCPOFFER on 192.168.2.50 to 08:00:27:84:b7:23 via eth1 Oct 4 13:22:55 kello dhcpd: DHCPDISCOVER from 08:00:27:84:b7:23 via eth1 Oct 4 13:22:55 kello dhcpd: DHCPOFFER on 192.168.2.50 to 08:00:27:84:b7:23 via eth1 As in theory, I'm expecting it to send DHCPREQUEST in response to server DHCPOFFER and server to hit back with DHCPACK. Why it doesn't work? How can i debug it to find out what's wrong with it? TIA -- Hiisi. Registered Linux User #487982. Be counted at: http://counter.li.org/ -- Spandex is a privilege, not a right.

disable desktop background in fedora 13 (LXDE)
by Ranjan Maitra 05 Oct '10

05 Oct '10

Hi, I was wondering how one does it: I have been looking at the Preferences -> Desktop but I can not find a way to have it take nothing as the background. Previously, in F10,11,12, I recall that there was a button somewhere which said no background. I can not find it here. Any help? Many thanks! Ranjan
