Moving Fedora 14 to another disk
by Chuck Bruno 24 Feb '11

24 Feb '11

I need to move Fedora 14 to another hard drive to make more room for Windows. My current Fedora configuration consists of a boot partition, and an lvm2 partiton consisting of root, home, and swap. I have installed a 2nd hard drive and plan to use lvm vgextend, lvm pvmove and lvm vgreduce to move Fedora to the 2nd drive. I understand that I will also have to move the /boot partition as well. My questions are: How to I tell grub where the system is now located, or will I have to re-install grub? Do I simply create new mount points for /root and /home? How do I tell the “system” where the new swap is located? Are there other considerations that I need to look into? Thanks in advance for any help you can provide. Chuck

Hello - I'm looking in Rawhide and can't find any reference to NodeJS yet?

dell e6500 lost fn-f8 key with 2.6.32 kernels
by Brian Millett 24 Feb '11

24 Feb '11

In the 2.6.32 kernels, I've seemed to have lost the ability to use the fn-f8 key to togle external displays. Using xev I see that KeyPress event, serial 35, synthetic NO, window 0x5800001, root 0x15a, subw 0x5800002, time 869383, (55,45), root:(93,132), state 0x50, keycode 33 (keysym 0x70, p), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (70) "p" XmbLookupString gives 1 bytes: (70) "p" XFilterEvent returns: False KeyRelease event, serial 35, synthetic NO, window 0x5800001, root 0x15a, subw 0x5800002, time 869531, (55,45), root:(93,132), state 0x50, keycode 33 (keysym 0x70, p), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (70) "p" XFilterEvent returns: False This works just fine with the 2.6.31.12-174.2.22.fc12.x86_64, but not with any of the 2.6.32 kernels. Any hints? Thanks. -- Brian Millett - [ Delenn (re: Japanese stone garden), "The Gathering"] "On my world, there are books, thousands of pages, about the power of one mind to change the Universe.

What replaces this bit of HAL?
by Tom Horsley 23 Feb '11

23 Feb '11

I keep reading that HAL is going away to be replaced by a scattering of separate bits, but I can't figure out what is supposed to replace HAL to achieve the equivalent in a program I'm working on: This program recognizes PTP capable cameras that are plugged and unplugged from time to time. I get DBUS system messages (containing the HAL udi string) on the plug/unplug event, and I can lookup things like the USB bus and device numbers which are needed by libgphoto2 by calling HAL functions to query properties. So if HAL is going away, what the heck is the official recommended way to achieve these same results without HAL?

grub-install problem -
by Bob Goodwin 23 Feb '11

23 Feb '11

I've moved some drives around, trying to get F-14 and Win XP to dual boot. Started with a working F14. Added a third drive that had XP already installed, had to put it in the first slot or Windows refused to boot. Now only Windows boots. From Linux rescue: sh-4.1# grub-install /dev/sda /dev/sdc2 does not have any corresponding BIOS drive. I don't have the slightest idea what that is trying to tell me? Help! Bob --

Expanding an LVM partition at the front
by Matthew Saltzman 23 Feb '11

23 Feb '11

I deleted the partition immediately in front of an LVM physical volume. I'd like to use the freed space as part of the LVM volume group. I know I could create a new partition in the same place, make it a physical volume and add it to the group, but because the space is contiguous, I wondered if it is possible just to move the front of the existing PV partition to include the freed space. I tried changing the start of the partition using fdisk, but then the PV is no longer recognized by LVM. I suppose that means that there is information about the PV stored in a particular location at the front of the partition. Putting the starting point back makes the PV recognizable again. So is there a utility that can move the front of a physical volume partition? (gparted and fdisk apparently can't). TIA.
