Re: Open Letter (Plea for Medical/Help Assistance) to World Leaders
by Antonio Olivares 22 Jul '10

RE: Open Letter (Plea for Medical/Help Assistance) to World Leaders --- With all due respect and aplogizing for your situation. Are any of the referenced people(World Leaders using Fedora? How are these (World Leaders; Fedora users) supposed to help? I beg for forgiveness due to your condition, but I don't know how we can help in your case, since most of us here are NOT world Leaders, there might be a few doctors who use Feodra, but other than that I would not know? Are you sure you are posting to the right list? Regards, Antonio

yum update and f12
by Paul Allen Newell 22 Jul '10

22 Jul '10

I've been offline for quite awhile and today went in to do a yum update to my system. I last did this on 14feb10. It claimed that there was a flash plugin update and that was it. Nothing from Fedora. This strikes me very strange. My quick searches showed questions about yum and f13, but I didn't see anything about f12 (good chance I missed as it has been quite a long time). Lots of x64 stuff, but I am still 32bit 386. If I am correct, f12 is still active as only f13 is out, not f14. Is this behavior to be expected or do I need to "kick something" (figuratively, not literally) Thanks in advance, Paul

Firewall not getting displayed
by Parshwa Murdia 22 Jul '10

22 Jul '10

I simply enabled the basic firewall. What exactly I did:- http://sites.google.com/site/indiadoor/firewall-enabled and then when I click to see the Firewall (from System -> Administration -> Firewall and then providing the root credentials), the only thing which appears is a box and above which is written Firewall but in fact, nothing is getting displayed inside that but only blank. What might be the error, because Firewall is working, that is enabled (which I checked in System -> Administration -> Services -> iptables), which I saw from google (that is I googled for how to check firewall is working). But is not getting displayed in GUI...! Regards, Parshwa Murdia

Sound issue in HP G61 w/ F13
by Joseph L. Casale 22 Jul '10

22 Jul '10

It seems under System Admin in KDE, I only see the HDMI sound as an option, but this laptop has built in speakers an Intel HAD device: 00:14.2 Audio device [0403]: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA) [1002:4383] 01:05.1 Audio device [0403]: ATI Technologies Inc RS880 Audio Device [Radeon HD 4200] [1002:970f] Looking around, seems lots wrt Ubuntu but not much to do w/ Fedora. Anyone know how to get the internal sound functioning, there is no HDMI device hooked up at all... Thanks! jlc

In evolution under Folder there was an option to chose all messages in the folder. It seems to have disappeared in F13. Can it be found somewhere else?

X-chat question
by Steve Blackwell 22 Jul '10

22 Jul '10

I wanted to join an IRC chat on irc.gnome.org so I fired up XChat-GNOME (v0.26.1) and got the list of servers. The problem is irc.gnome.org is not on the list! I was able to get to it by starting Firefox and entering irc://irc.gnome.org in the locator bar which started another XChat-GNOME with the server already selected. So my question is: how do I get to the server I want without starting Firefox if that server is not in the xchat server list? Just curious.

[OT] javascript guru out there?
by Mike Wright 22 Jul '10

22 Jul '10

Hi all, Sorry to post this here but of all the lists/forums I'm on this one seems to have the most diverse talent pool. I've been developing a javascript application that works everywhere except on Google's Chrome browser and have tracked it down to a "for each" statement. To verify that's what it is I created a tiny example program and sure enough that one also fails. Upgraded Chrome to the latest stable version and the failure persists. If anybody wants to take a peek/stab at this I could sure use the help - I've been stumped on this for two days now. http://www.pastebin.com/Pq5E8Tfe Thanks for any and all help, Mike Wright

gnome-display-properties, RandR, apply to all users / logon screen?
by Alexander List 22 Jul '10

22 Jul '10

Hi, I wonder if it's possible to apply the monitor settings done in gnome-display-properties to the login screen resp. all users on a workstation... My problem: I have an Nvidia Quadro FX 1700, use the nouveau driver and would like to rotate the two Dell 24" screens on my desk. X11 correctly detects that I have two screens, but it cannot detect that I've turned them clockwise... I've tried to tweak xorg.conf after Googling for two hours and gave up... The only hint I found was http://live.gnome.org/RandR - that's about as close as I could get to a solution... is there a way to apply the monitors.xml created in ~/.conf to the entire system? Alex
