gdm WM chooser

21 Jul '11

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Bonjour, Once upon a time, I could choose my window manager and language from the gdm greeter. I recently installed F14 and this possibility is no longer there: did I miss to install some package? And which one?

I am planning on installing Fedora with LUKS over LVM as follows: sda1 ntfs sda2 /boot ext sda3 - PV and VG - lv_swap swap (encrypted LV) -lv_root / ext4 (encrypted LV) -lv_home /home ext4 ( (encrypted LV)) -rest unassigned - I will assign and encrypt as the need arises. sda4 extended sda5 vfat Is it suspend-to-disk supported? I cannot find any documentation except for this 2007 article in redhat magazine, is it still valid. http://magazine.redhat.com/2007/01/18/disk-encryption-in-fedora-past-presen… -- Kind regards, Yudi

intel wifi link problem again
by Hüvely Balázs 21 Jul '11

21 Jul '11

Dear developers! Before a month I try to get help with intel wifi link card. The problem was the connection hangs on and sometimes the machine freeze. I tried fedora 15 with the same result. I try scientific linux, and centos 6, it's working fine, without any freeze. I tested near 2 weeks, and copying many gigs of datas through wifi. There wasn't any error like before. So, please look after the problem, and fix it in fedora. I turn from fedora to other distro, because I have a big chance to I can use it and it will be stable. (It's still incredible for me, why centos and SL works fine, and fedroa freezes/hangs on about 5mins.) Thanks, Balazs

persistent image with firefox 3.6.18
by François Patte 21 Jul '11

21 Jul '11

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Bonsoir, I come accross a problem since I updated my f14 and got the 3.6.18 version of firefox: when I whach some video (like al-jazeera, arte, or some other sites) the last image (ie: after closing the site) remains persistent on my screen. Even if I close firefox. I have to log out and log in again to get rid of this image. I have an nvidia video card and use the nvidia driver ( xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-260.19.36-1.fc14...). What is strange is that happens only with firefox (ie: whatching video or using some applet which allows you to control the volume of a radio site) but not if I use vlc, xine or other apps for video or photos. So I think that the problems comes from firefox and not from the video driver. Does anyone experienced something like that? Does anybody have an idea about this problem? Thank you for answering. - -- François Patte UFR de mathématiques et informatique Université Paris Descartes 45, rue des Saints Pères F-75270 Paris Cedex 06 Tél. +33 (0)1 4286 2145 http://www.math-info.univ-paris5.fr/~patte -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk4l9eIACgkQdE6C2dhV2JUG6ACfXyvcxLn/FL5d3ot4cnMwOQU9 lEEAoMcW33wiFjue84HWyScGx442VIwK =/Jww -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Clamd fails on reboot
by Arthur Dent 21 Jul '11

21 Jul '11

Hello All, When i do a reboot (about once per month) I carefully check all the essential services are running (I especially needed to do this as systemd was, until now, not starting sendmail - a bug that is now fixed). Clamd will not start after a reboot. A little investigation reveals that it won't start because it tries to create a pid file in /var/run/clamd.clamd/ - but /var/run/clamd.clamd/ does not exist. mkdir /var/run/clamd.clamd && chown clamd:clamd /var/run/clamd.clamd/ will allow the service to be started with no problems. The next reboot and... poof... /var/run/clamd.clamd/ is gone again! I have grepped the whole of /etc/* to see if there are any references to this directory with the only entries being the sensible ones in /etc/init.d/clamd-wrapper. In that init script the "stop" stanza does have the following command: "[ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] && rm -f $lockfile" but "$lockfile" refers to lockfile=/var/lock/subsys/clamd.${CLAMD_SERVICE} There are no other "rm" commands. So what deletes the /var/run/clamd.clamd/ directory on reboot? Thanks in advance Mark

Don't go wireless when wired is available...
by Darryl L. Pierce 21 Jul '11

21 Jul '11

For some reason over the past week my F15 laptop has started pestering me for the WPA2 key at work when I'm using my laptop. The problem is that 1) it does it when I'm in the docking station and on a wired connection and 2) I already have a WPA2 key setup for a different wireless network at work that's present at the same time, but to which the laptop's not trying to connect. How do I, short of turning off wireless when I login while docked, tell F15/Gnome3 to stop trying to connect to a wireless network? I want it to give the wired connection preference and not try to go wireless as well. -- Darryl L. Pierce, Sr. Software Engineer @ Red Hat, Inc. Delivering value year after year.
