Vinagre???
by Antonio M 03 Jul '10

03 Jul '10

I have two boxes, both have UltraVNC and Vinagre (Remote desktop viewer), exactly the same packages both in F11 fully updated When I connect from A to B both Vinagre and UltraVNC work, but when I connect from Ato B UltraVNC works fine but in Vinagre I see the list of remote desktops, but when I try to connect I get the message Connection closed: The connection to host B has been closed. Any idea?? Tnx -- Antonio Montagnani Skype : antoniomontag SIP: antoniomontag(a)ekiga.net

Fedora 11 GDM - unwanted list of all local users and impossible to customize?
by jaivuk 31 May '10

31 May '10

Hello guys, I did not use gdm for some time and now I'm not happy how it looks in Fedora 11. First of all - the list of local users is unacceptable from security reasons. Even if it supports such "an " option - how it can be the default one?! Second problem I have is shutdown button (and possibly restart as well) - when you click on shutdown button by mistake, system will shut - there is no confirmation dialog. I also tried to find some ways how to customize gdm in Fedora 11 but I did not find any usable guide. Can anybody please advise me how can I have prompt asking for username only (showing last logged user at maximum) and not displaying the list of all local users? Also can I somehow add confirmation or remove shutdown restart buttons from gdm screen? Or can you please advise any alternative to gdm? Thank you very much, Jan

Rendering chart from bootchart
by Suvayu Ali 21 May '10

21 May '10

Hi everyone, I have been seeing very long boot times for the last few months so I ran bootchart. But I can't render the chart after booting. The web interface seems to be down. And the java application supplied with bootchart generates the following error. > $ java -jar /usr/share/java/bootchart.jar > Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/commons/cli/ParseException > Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.commons.cli.ParseException > at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:217) > at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) > at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:205) > at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:319) > at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Launcher.java:294) > at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:264) > at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClassInternal(ClassLoader.java:332) > Could not find the main class: org.bootchart.Main.

Installing F12 on Mactel
by Leon Stringer 12 Apr '10

12 Apr '10

Hi, I've tried to install F12 on my Core 2 Duo iMac. The installation seemed to go okay but there's no sign of Fedora when I boot. I hold down the <Option> key and just get the MacOS partition. Is there a trick to this? Thanks in advance, Leon...

Critical temperature reached, shutting down
by Steve Malenfant 29 Mar '10

29 Mar '10

I have an ECS board which triggers these Critical temperature alarm and them my system shuts down. This happens only in "yum update" but doesn't on video playback for hours. Jan 14 14:06:19 localhost kernel: Critical temperature reached (127 C), shutting down. Jan 14 14:06:19 localhost kernel: Critical temperature reached (127 C), shutting down. The problem I have is that the CPU temp stays about 40C when this happens (using sensors) and can't find any temperature that goes higher in the sensors data. Seems like a ACPI problem but the kernel log message has no details on which sensors is at 127 C. Is there a way to tell the kernel to be a bit more verbose on these? Thanks.

Fwd: Freeze due to Xorg server??
by Antonio M 20 Mar '10

20 Mar '10

A friend of mine has installed F12 (that has been fully updated) on her AMD system with Radeon graphic card, but she js experiencing some freezes randomly. So she added some option to grub and situation greatly improved, but sometimes during operation system locks default=0 timeout=10 splashimage=(hd0,5)/grub/splash.xpm.gz hiddenmenu title Fedora (2.6.31.12-174.2.3.fc12.i686.PAE) root (hd0,5) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.31.12-174.2.3.fc12.i686.PAE ro root=/dev/mapper/vg_lella-lv_root LANG=it_IT.UTF-8 SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16 KEYBOARDTYPE=pc KEYTABLE=it rhgb quiet noacpi nomodeset initrd /initramfs-2.6.31.12-174.2.3.fc12.i686.PAE.img I suspect that something is wrong with Xorg, so I got from her by e-mail all Xorg log files, that are attached. I can't understand why thereis a Xorg.0.old.log file that is empty, anyway can someone have a look to these logs and comment them? Tnx for help -- Antonio Montagnani Skype : antoniomontag SIP: antoniomontag(a)ekiga.net

kernel module
by Luca 12 Mar '10

12 Mar '10

Hi all, I created a kernel module which can be passed some command line arguments (I tried that with insmod and it works). Now I would like, when I start the kernel with grub, to have this module loaded at boot time so I can pass, at boot time, a kernel boot option to it. I mean having something like kernel vmlinuz root=/dev/ram0 initrd=linuxrc mymodule.param1="myparamvalue" initrd .... is it possible? Thanks, Luca

I get this error EVERY time I start Kmail: [ERROR] Can't open and lock privilege tables: Table 'mysql.servers' doesn't exist I've tried removing the .local/share/alonadi directory and rebooting with no luck. Can anyone point me in the right direction per how to fix this? Thanks in advance

KMail
by John Aldrich 09 Mar '10

09 Mar '10

WTF is up with KMail? Ever since I installed a bunch of updates this morning, KMail started having problems. I got a brilliant idea and decided to see if restarting KMail would solve the problem. Well, it didn't. It caused more problems. Now I can't send *anything* and there's a message on my system (at home -- logged into it from remote) stating "starting akonadi server." Now WTF is that and why is it not starting???
