Weird Network Manager Problem (On Hold)
by mike 25 Sep '10

25 Sep '10

Thanks for the info JB. I have that printed out and will try the two programs before I do anything else. The Fedora machine is my Hobby machine and does not affect my wife's business in any way so I can afford to take some time to research. However like you the root password getting hosed leads me to think that I did get hacked so I do not trust this install anymore. Immediately after the testing it is going away! Thanks for the Help!

kmod-catalyst and monitor config
by Joseph L. Casale 25 Sep '10

25 Sep '10

I needed working ogl for a couple cad apps so I installed the kmods (akmods wouldn't compile on latest on latest kernel, so running 1 behind present). When I first booted, I had my laptop and external monitor working, res on ext was low. So I disabled LVDS and set CRT1 to 1680x1050 (Auto) but it wouldn't change, so I went down one res setting, then back and it changed? Subsequent reboots though keep setting it low. What's with the (Auto) in the 1680x1050 setting and the changing behavior? xorg.conf is as the catalyst install left it. livna-config-display crashes when run. Thanks! jlc

Firewall - OUTPUT rule
by JD 25 Sep '10

25 Sep '10

The firewall is belching these messages: Sep 23 19:22:39 vger kernel: Dropped by firewall: IN=wlan0 OUT= MAC= SRC=192.168.0.8 DST=192.168.0.255 LEN=223 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=64 ID=0 DF PROTO=UDP SPT=631 DPT=631 LEN=203 Thing is, 192.168.0.8 is my wlan0 ip address. Since port 631 is the internet printing protocol, the packet must be getting sent by the cups daemon because I configured to print on a network wireless printer. What should an OUTPUT rule look like to allow these packets to be sent? Or is it a problem with my INPUT filters?

hi, I'm on F13 and I'm trying to compile a package from the source. The package is delasa (www.dalesa.lk) and when I ./configure. I get 'configure: error: openssl development libraries not found'. This is the output of 'yum search openssl | grep dev' openssl-devel.i686 : Files for development of applications which will use globus-gsi-openssl-error-devel.i686 : Globus Toolkit - Globus OpenSSL Error globus-openssl-devel.i686 : Globus Toolkit - Openssl Library Development Files globus-openssl-module-devel.i686 : Globus Toolkit - Globus OpenSSL Module libpathfinder-openssl-devel.i686 : Pathfinder development libraries based on xmlsec1-openssl-devel.i686 : OpenSSL crypto plugin for XML Security Library tcltls-devel.i686 : Header files for the OpenSSL extension for Tcl nss_compat_ossl-devel.i686 : Development libraries for nss_compat_ossl and I've installed all the above listed packages and the error still remains. and this is the latter part of config.log /* confdefs.h */ #define PACKAGE_NAME "" #define PACKAGE_TARNAME "" #define PACKAGE_VERSION "" #define PACKAGE_STRING "" #define PACKAGE_BUGREPORT "" #define PACKAGE_URL "" #define STDC_HEADERS 1 #define HAVE_SYS_TYPES_H 1 #define HAVE_SYS_STAT_H 1 #define HAVE_STDLIB_H 1 #define HAVE_STRING_H 1 #define HAVE_MEMORY_H 1 #define HAVE_STRINGS_H 1 #define HAVE_INTTYPES_H 1 #define HAVE_STDINT_H 1 #define HAVE_UNISTD_H 1 #define HAVE_DLFCN_H 1 #define LT_OBJDIR ".libs/" #define STDC_HEADERS 1 #define HAVE_STDLIB_H 1 #define HAVE_STRING_H 1 #define HAVE_UNISTD_H 1 #define HAVE_OPENSSL_BN_H 1 #define HAVE_OPENSSL_EVP_H 1 #define HAVE_MYSQL_MYSQL_H 1 #define HAVE_UUID_H 1 configure: exit 1 Anyone to help to overcome this issue? -- Best Regards, W.H.Kalpa Pathum http://kalpapathum.blogspot.com http://thiraya.wordpress.com

Working ATI driver?
by Bill Davidsen 25 Sep '10

25 Sep '10

I have a new ATI Radeon card in a new system, PCI says: 03:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV710 [Radeon HD 4350] 03:00.1 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc RV710/730 Is there a driver which will use this card? I would happily take a driver from ATI or the devil himself, but having an expensive new system which I have to run in text mode is a bit over the top. Currently running kernel 2.6.34.7-56.fc13.x86_64 getting little use of the system. I tried two other boards, different boards, similar results. -- Bill Davidsen<davidsen(a)tmr.com> "We can't solve today's problems by using the same thinking we used in creating them." - Einstein

I have to reboot the system, enable it in the BIOS then use a hardware lister utility to get the hardware vendor and version. Fedora has a utility to do this. I did a Google search and what comes up is a Broadcom BCM57780. Dell isn't very good about disclosing what hardware they use. Dell, like several others, like to use custom manufactured motherboards from brand named vendors in their products, and they don't supply a "manual" like you would expect from a boxed motherboard. Even if you do find out who made the board and contact them they won't supply any information, they just tell you to contact the other company. Regards; Leland C. Scott KC8LDO
