Re: Re: JDK 7 status and IcedTea
by Fernando Lozano 29 Nov '11

29 Nov '11

Hi there, Resuming an old thread, just to clarify one point: >---- Original Message ---- >From: Andrew Haley <aph(a)redhat.com> >Sent: Sex, Nov 4, 2011, 12:13 PM > >> And what about certification? Is there a TCK for Java 7? Will OpenJDK 7 on >> Fedora be certified for Fedora 16 at release or at a later update? > >We haven't got the TCK for Java 7 yet. We'll certify as soon as >we do. This meant the community and/or Red Hat did not get the JSR-336 TCK yet. It doesn't mean there is any problem with license or process that prevents Fedora to get the TCK and certifiy OpenJDK 7 finaries for F16 or a future release. Am I correct? If I am, is there a timeframe for certified builds? I'd hate having to get Oracle proprietaty binaries just to satisfy bureucratic requirements. :-( And while we're talking about Java 7, I heard about serious problems preventing some open source packages like Lucene from running under Java 7 on production settings. Anyone on the list can vouch for Java 7 in full production, or can based on experience advise against that? I rememeber all first releases (.1, .3) of JDK were somewat problematic (bugs).

I think you have this bass-ackwards. Install and forget would seem to include reasonably stable, as bug fixes will be created for the version for some time. "stay-current" will be difficult in any case, as no distribution that I know of keeps all the apps current, they generally use the more-or-less current versions at time of release and patch them, rather than upgrading. If that's what you want, you will probably need to build and install your own packages. Constant upgrading seems to be the norm for those who want the latest and greatest.

Create an rsyncd.service fedora 16
by David Highley 28 Nov '11

28 Nov '11

We are trying to create an rsyncd.service with fedora 16. We can get the process to start but it acts like it never opens the socket and exits a short time later. The two files we have are below. rsyncd.socket: [Unit] Description=rsyncd Service Sockets [Socket] ListenStream=873 [Install] WantedBy=sockets.target rsyncd.service: [Unit] Description=rsyncd Rsync Daemon After=syslog.target network.target DefaultDependencies=no [Service] EnvironmentFile=/etc/rsyncd/rsyncd.conf ExecStart=/usr/bin/rsync --config=/etc/rsyncd/rsyncd.conf --daemon [Install] Also=rsyncd.socket WantedBy=multi-user.target

How is screen size handled in kvm/qemu
by Alexander Volovics 28 Nov '11

28 Nov '11

I decided to try out virtualization in Fed 16 + Gnome 3.2 on my laptop. To begin I chose a small distro 'Crunchbang-10 64bits, based on Debian Live with the Openbox WM. No problems with the install. But the result is not comfortable because the laptop screen is 1600x900 and the virt manager screen for Crunchbang is 1024x768, the wrong (4:3) proportionality. This means that even if I use full-screen I still have a 'small' Crunchbang screen. I this a restriction of virtual graphics or are there (hidden) configuration options. Alexander
