kde and konsole odds
by Boggiano
Hi all,
I know this ml it's not kde related, by since I use it on Fedora... ;)
I use a lot ssh with kconsole to login into my servers in office.
Usually I use something like:
konsole --title="JBlade" --profile Remote -e ssh root(a)jblade.network.com
and it works by command line (I see the string "JBlade" on the title of
the new window)
But if I bind the command to an entry inside the kickoff menu I lose the
property title; instead I see something like "<IP>:<username>".
Can someone help me, pls?
Thanks

Postings
by BadMagic
Am I supposed to receive my own postings because I posted yesterday
and didn't receive a copy?
I don't know if it was successful and I just haven't received a reply
yet or if it didn't actually get posted. Can anyone tell me if they're
receiving this email?
It was a question about my EVGA GTX 295 graphics card not working with
Fedora 11 and 12.
Regards,
Steve Laurie

recent network breakage on f12?
by Wolfgang S. Rupprecht
I'm seeing several of my laptops fail to get a dhcp lease after the
April-23 yum update for f12. The server sees the dhcp request and
issues the correct IP address, but the client never seems to act upon
it. Both eth0 and wlan0 never have IPv4 addresses assigned. Strangely
IPv6 addresses do get assigned correctly (bith link-local and global) so
it isn't a case of the ethernet or wlan being down. Those requests do
go out and the reply gets acted upon.
Both NetowrkManager and dhclient were updated within the last two days.
I wonder if something is broken there. Are other folks seeing the same
breakage?

SyncMaster XL2370
by thorsten4＠gmx.net
Hi,
I've Fedora 11 installed and a new SyncMaster XL2370. Unfortunately the maximum screen resolution I can choose so far is 1280 x 720 instead of 1920x1080 :-(
Any ideas how I could change this?
Regards

USB power-off
by Antonio M
I am using Fedora 12 (and 13) installed on an external USB hard disk.
Sometimes the disk powers off and Fedora stalls until power is restored...
Is it a bug in the kernel???

Fedora 12 Update Breaks X / KDE
by Christopher Ross
Yesterday I did a normal yum upgrade and it pulled in a few packages
(listed below).
Since then I've had problems such as Kate refusing to run, with
kate: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/kde4/katepart.so: undefined symbol:
_ZN9QGroupBoxC1EP7QWidget
Konsole taking several attempts to start up without segfaulting
Acrobat Reader immediately crashes the X server on startup
and more. Does anyone else see this? Know when another yum upgrade will
fix it?

Error while burning DVD
by Paolo Galtieri
Over the last several days I have had recurring failures burning DVDs with
brasero on F12. It starts to write the disk and then fails with the
following error:
SCSI error on write(716608,16): [5 21 00] Lba out of range
I have attached the brasero log.
The last few entries are:
BraseroLibburn called brasero_job_get_session_output_size
BraseroLibburn called brasero_job_set_current_action
BraseroLibburn called brasero_job_get_session_output_size
BraseroLibburn called brasero_job_set_current_action
BraseroLibburn SCSI error condition on command 2Ah WRITE(10): [5 21 00] Lba
out of range
BraseroLibburn called brasero_job_get_session_output_size
BraseroLibburn called brasero_job_set_current_action
BraseroLibburn Libburn reported an error SCSI error on write(716608,16): [5
21 00] Lba out of range
BraseroLibburn called brasero_job_error
BraseroLibburn finished with an error
BraseroLibburn asked to stop because of an error
error = 1
message = "SCSI error on write(716608,16): [5 21 00] Lba out of
range"
BraseroLibburn stopping
Session error : SCSI error on write(716608,16): [5 21 00] Lba out of range
(brasero_burn_record brasero-burn.c:2808)
If I retry burning the DVD I get the same error. The DVDs aren't bad since
I've used them on another F12 system without error. I have successfully
burned DVDs on this same system within the last week. This error started
appearing after the most recent set of updates. However, my other F12
system is also up to date, but I have not seen any errors.

I have rebooted the system, but that didn't fix the problem. I succeeded in
burning 1 DVD, but the problem occurred burning a second DVD.
Any ideas?
