More on DNS issue
by Joe Zeff 24 Oct '10

24 Oct '10

OK, I've now rebooted, and the problem manifested again. No surprise. Checking, both ifcfg-eth0 and ifcfg-lo have the proper DNS in them but resolf.conf claims they don't. [root@khorlia etc]# ls -l resolv.conf -rw-r--r--. 2 root root 317 Oct 23 17:53 resolv.conf [root@khorlia network-scripts]# ls -l ifcfg* -rw-r--r--. 8 root root 343 Oct 15 00:51 ifcfg-eth0 -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 293 Sep 15 12:30 ifcfg-lo Neither of them has changed recently, as you can see and resolv.conf was rebuilt at boot. Any ideas?

quasi-[OT] Adobe Flash
by Peter G. 24 Oct '10

24 Oct '10

I am using Adobe Flash 10 (x86_64) with Firefox on Fedora 14. I have noticed that, when watching YouTube, the videos are downloaded into the ~/.mozilla cache (in the older flash, it was /tmp). With some YT videos, the file remains in the Cache, but with other videos, the file vanishes at the instant that the file is completely downloaded, yet I can still play it in the opened page of Firefox. Where does the vanished .flv go? It is no longer visible in Cache, but I can still play it. Is it in memory somewhere? It must be somewhere, because I can play it. How can I save it without redundantly re-downloading it?

ext3 ext4
by Patrick Dupre 24 Oct '10

24 Oct '10

Hello, I tried to clone a couple of partitions of a fedora 10 system (I used fedora 13 to do it) The old ones are ext3 and I formatted the new one ext4 (mke2fs) Then I tried to reboot on the clone after modifying the /etc/fstab and the grub.conf I kept the / in ext3 THe boot complains on the mount on the ext4 partitions while I cannot mount the partitions without any problem when the system is booted from the old system (fedora 10 ext3). I also put the option ext4 in the initrd use at the boot. I get an error like: fsck.ext4 not a directory while trying to open /dev/... The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem. So it looks like that it is trying to open is as an ext2 partition.

Authentec Fingerprint driver doesn't work ?
by Caffeine Lee 24 Oct '10

24 Oct '10

Dear friends, I'm using Fedora 13, 64bit on HP Elitebook 6930p with Authentec Fingerprint reader. I already installed GDM fingerprint plugin, but there's no fingerprint option from GDM. I'm not sure if the driver doesn't work or it's not enabled yet. Has anyone experienced this? My friend's HP pavilion with fedora 12 has its fingerprint reader work out of the box. Thank you very much. Hoang

dict not working
by Silent-Hunter 23 Oct '10

23 Oct '10

Dict will not do anything. I type "dict haul" or "dict love" and it just sits there. It used to display a definition, but now it won't. I wonder if it was something I did.

Trouble with DNS configuration
by Joe Zeff 23 Oct '10

23 Oct '10

I've been using Fedora exclusively since F 9 (and dual boot before that) on my desktop computer and am now using F 13. Until recently, I had no trouble with DNS. Then, I decided to try the Norton DNS numbers. Ever since, every time I reboot I have no DNS until I reconfigure it with system-config-network. (I have Network Manager turned off because it doesn't work well for me.) Checking, /etc/resolv.conf claims that there's no DNS numbers listed in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts, but both ifcfg-eth0 and ifcfg-lo not only have the proper numbers, they've not been modified recently. I've been trying to find out how to stop this on fedoraforum.org, but the only suggestion is to reconfigure with Network Manager, even though I've stated that I'm not using it. I find it hard to believe that this is a bug, because if it were, I'd not be the only person affected by it. Does anybody here have a suggestion on how to keep this from happening in the future? I've just updated the kernel, but am holding off on rebooting to see if there's anything you folks can suggest first, as I hate rebooting Linux if I don't have to.

F14 + two cards + nouveau = fail?
by DJ Delorie 23 Oct '10

23 Oct '10

I have a setup with two GeForce 9800 GT cards, each with two monitors. I've tried F13, F14alpha, and now F14beta and I've never gotten my four-monitor setup to work right. I want all four monitors in a cluster as a single desktop. I currently use F12 with the nvidia driver and Xinerama, but rendering performance is very slow sometimes. With F14 the best I can do is EITHER xrandr the two monitors on the first card and SEPARATELY xrandr the two on the second card, OR xinerama the first monitor on each card (the second monitors clone the first). Has ANYONE gotten nouveau working nicely with >1 cards and >2 monitors?
