F14 on Asus eeePC: gnome brightness applet gone
by Colin Brace 03 Nov '10

03 Nov '10

Hi all, I upgraded my Asus 1001HA eeePC from F13 to F14 earlier today, without any apparent problems. Only one significant casualty: the LSD brightness slider no longer is displayed in the Gnome panel status section. Any ideas on what might have happened here? Surely this useful applet is still part of Gnome?? This file is now gone: /usr/libexec/gnome-brightness-applet Thanks, -Colin ----- Colin Brace Amsterdam http://lim.nl -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/F14-on-Asus-eeePC%3A-gnome-brightness-applet-gone-tp3… Sent from the Fedora List mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

VLAN default name type changed after upgrade to Fedora 14
by mgt 03 Nov '10

03 Nov '10

I have upgraded to Fedora 14 yesterday and I'm very happy with the update. But I have come to this tiny problem. I have a number of VLAN interfaces configured on my machine. I have the files in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ and for example in my ifcfg-vlanX file I got a line such as this: VLAN_NAME_TYPE=VLAN_PLUS_VID_NO_PAD which create a vlan interface with the proper name. In this case: vlanX . In Fedora 13 with that configuration, when I create a vlan on the fly with the command: example: $ su -c 'vconfig add eth0 666' I got a new interface with the same name type as interfaces configured by my init scripts. To follow the example from above: vlan666 . But after the upgrade to Fedora 14 the same command creates the interface with the default name type, which in my case is eth0.666 . I dont want this. I want the old behaviour. More info: # su -c 'cat /proc/net/vlan/config' VLAN Dev name | VLAN ID Name-Type: VLAN_NAME_TYPE_RAW_PLUS_VID_NO_PAD Can someone tell me where should I put a default name type option for a vconfig command since in Fedora 14 it doesnt take in consideration the existing interfaces vlan name type and reset it to the default behaviour as you can see above. Thanks! Best regards, -- mgt

Fonts group in anaconda?
by Tom Horsley 03 Nov '10

03 Nov '10

Right now "Fonts" is in the group "Base System", then there are close to 300 individual font items listed in "Fonts". There are also some other random fonts scattered around in legacy fonts entries or grouped with X11 stuff. Does anyone think "Fonts" deserves to be its own top level package group, with sub groups for things like "Latin fonts", "Cyrillic fonts", "Symbol fonts", etc. Sure seems like it would be simpler to find and install the fonts you might actually use that way. It is quite time consuming at the moment to hunt & peck through the big list of individual font entries and exclude the ones I can't read even if I have them installed (mainly to avoid having to constantly download updates for fonts I can't read anyway :-). It also helps keep the lists of available fonts in font selector dialogs down to a manageable level.

Problem with nfs exporting with Fedora 8
by Doll, Margaret Ann 03 Nov '10

03 Nov '10

I needed Fedora 8 for its version of glibc for a third party software. I have it installed on a system. I need to mount some of its directories across the network for backup purposes, but I cannot get the mounting to work on a RedHat system. The RedHat system has Umbuntu directories and directories from other RedHat system mounted on it. The RedHat system is not the problem. The directories from Fedora and Umbuntu are being mounted onto the RedHat system, ro. I noticed on Fedora 8, portmap has disappeared. rcpbind seems to have taken over the function of portmap. nfs, nfslock, and rcpbind are running on the Fedora system. nfs-utils are installed on the Fedora system. The Fedora system seems to be exporting the directories I wish it to. Fedora> exportfs /home RedHat /500Gb RedHat When the RedHat system mounts the directories from Fedora, in the messages on the Fedora system I get Nov 2 16:30:04 Fedora kernel: NFSD: starting 90-second grace period Nov 2 16:30:39 Fedora rpcbind: rpcbind terminating on signal. Restart with "rpcbind -w" If I change /etc/init.d/rcpbind to include "-w" as the start argument and then restart rcpbind, I get the error Starting rpcbind: rpcbind: invalid permissions on file = /var/lib/rpcbind/rpcbind.file for reading rpcbind: will start from scratch This still occurs if I change the permissions on the rpcbind.file to rx for everyone. How do I export directories from Fedora 8 and mount them on a RedHat system? Thanks for your help.

Hi! I would like to grant access to audio to certain users other than the one currently login physically / on console. I tried to add all those users to the group pulse-access, pulse, and audio, but it does not work. I still get this error: $ paplay /usr/share/sounds/gnome/default/alerts/sonar.ogg Connection failure: Connection refused pa_context_connect() failed: Connection refused Anybody know how to setup this?
