Oh no! Something has gone wrong. (GNOME 3 login issue)
by Valent Turkovic 28 Jun '11

28 Jun '11

Hi guys and galls, I'm testing few older gpraphics cards and few nvidia cards have issue when using nouveao module that after typing in login info I don't see GNOME Shell nor compatible mode dekstop but just get message saying: "Oh no! Something has gond wrong. A problem has occured and the system can't recover. Please log out and try again." This looks like Fedora tried to load GNOME Shell but it didn't detect card features correctly so it fails. My question is why GNOME doens't just switch to compatible mode instead of crashing? Which logs are relevant with this issue? Should I look at X log or GNOME Shell has some of its own logs, and if it has where are they located? I'm interested to see what causes the issue. I tried also loading nvidia proprietary module but it looks it doesn't support latest X in Fedora 15. I'm willing to work with devels to track down bugs and make Fedora 15 and GNOME Shell better but need some guidance.

F15 doesn't believe my hardware clock uses local time
by Sam Varshavchik 17 Jun '11

17 Jun '11

On my laptop, it seems that at every boot the clock is offseted by my timezone. Date/Time properties shows "System clock uses UTC" unchecked. This is a dual- boot with WinXP, so I must keep the bios clock on local time. Yet, it seems that when I boot the bios clock is read as UTC nevertheless. Before I begin a long and painful adventure in pulling apart with what's happening with systemd/initscripts, anyone has any clues where I should look?

Routing not working
by Dan Track 10 Jun '11

10 Jun '11

Hi, I've got a server where I've got two interfaces (vlan 200 and vlan 300). If I get traffic coming into vlan 200 but sourced from a network that vlan 200 subnet doesn't know about, the server should send the traffic out of it's default gateway i.e. vlan 300, but this isn't happening. If I do a tcpdump on both interfaces I can see traffic coming in on vlan 200 but failing to even be present on the return in vlan 300 (not even present on vlan 200 - did it for sanity sake). However, if I put in an explicit route in stating that this unknown network exists out of vlan 200 then everything works fine. My routing table is like this: ip route 166.14.134.144/28 dev vlan200 proto kernel scope link src 166.14.134.154 159.156.137.32/28 dev vlan300 proto kernel scope link src 159.156.137.42 127.0.0.0/8 dev lo scope link default via 159.156.137.33 dev vlan300 vlan 200 and vlan 300 sit on the same bonded interface. Trunking is set on the switch. It's almost as though the OS (kernel) is saying that you can't take input from one int and then send it out another int. Are there some parameters I need to change? Thanks for any help. Dan

by n2xssvv.g02gfr12930 08 Jun '11

08 Jun '11

To anyone trying to upgrade from Fedora 14 to Fedora 15, DON'T EVEN TRY!!! I've just tried and have had numerous problems, finally resulting in being unable to boot up any kernel version at all, using inittab mode 1,3, or 5. In view of this it appears I will have to reinstall Fedora 14. cpp4ever

F15 connection sharing
by Pasha R 07 Jun '11

07 Jun '11

I'm trying to figure out the connection sharing option in F15. I connect to internet using PPPoE, and, till now, I used "old" network configuration (and disabled network manager) to setup a static IP address and PPPoE connection, and then used masquerading to share connection to other computers on the network. In F15 I can't find a way to make such configuration and also can't find an option in NM to enable connection sharing for DSL connection. Is there anything I'm missing?

No sound since upgrading to F15
by John Aldrich 07 Jun '11

07 Jun '11

I had working sound in Fedora 14, but now since upgrading to Fedora 15, there is no sound. What gives??? The ONLY option in systemsettings for sound is Pulseaudio. XMMS has options for OSS, ArtsD, and Alsa. Are those deprecated or something??? any idea why I can't get sound any more???

KDE Laggy in Fresh F15
by Kevin H. Hobbs 06 Jun '11

06 Jun '11

I just did a fresh install of Fedora 15 x86_64 with KDE. KDE is mostly unusable in Fedora 15 while it was fine in Fedora 14 (with nvidia driver). The display seems to freeze for a few seconds every few seconds. Menus take seconds to open. Windows leave garbage on the display when they are moved or re-sized. New windows are often filled with garbage before they are drawn all the way. KDE automatically disables the desktop effects. I installed and switched to fluxbox and everything is snappy. Without all of the KDE decoration firefox went from unusable to normal under fluxbox. I have not installed any software not in Fedora's repository (no nvidia drivers). System details that might be usefull: lenovo S10 Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz 4 GB of DDR3 1067 MHz RAM nVidia Corporation G86 [Quadro NVS 290] nouveau driver is loaded and in /etc/X11/xorg.conf Screen spans two 1600x1200 CRTs
