Kickstart, halt and eject
by j.e.aneiros
Hi,
It will be so nice to have the option eject in case of the halt instead of
the reboot! Is it possible?

F15: mcelog hardware error after a power failure
by Patrick Mansfield
Hi -
I'm running up to date Fedora 15.
Power glitched yesterday morning, and my system rebooted (along with
clocks resetting, and my laptop hanging ... but that's a different issue).
During the reboot, I got the following in my log file. The machine is otherwise
up and running with (apparently) no problems.
Any ideas what the output means?
Could it just be a glitch caused during the power failure, and then
reported during the boot?
I haven't rebooted since this happened.
Thanks!

bluetooth service dies after sleep
by Genes MailLists
Frequently after laptop is awoken from sleep (by lid open) - bluetooth
stops working. This is not every time only some of the time.
systemctl restart bluetooth.service
gets it working again. Is this a known bug? If so is it a bug with
systemd or bluetoothd or something else?
This is what the log file shows - including I assume my hand restart:

BTRFS Performance Peaks in F15 ¿Solution?
by Manuel Escudero
Hi, at this time, I'm running Fedora 15 X86_64 in my main machine with BTRFS
as the file system.
Since I made the installation I found some "performance peaks" in the
system, I mean, Sometimes
it works well, sometimes it is kind of slow.
Specially I'm having problems with VM's, (both in VirtualBox and VMware
Player) their
performance and the system's one are both HORRIBLE! This never happened in
F14 with
Ext4 (Filesystem was the only "deep change" I made to my system when
upgraded) So I was
wondering if there are some tips to improve system's performance in F15 with
BTRFS.
Also the system delays a little in boot and I don't like that, Any
Suggestions?
P.S. Other people reported this issue too:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=689127
I want to Know How to Solve it and why is it there.
Thanks!

Yes, this is okay. The '--all' switch makes a lot of units appear that you
need not be concerned about unless you're debugging a systemd unit
configuration file.
They are listed because another service configured them as an ordering
dependency, which means it wants to start before or after one of the above
services start, if it exists. It does not actually require them to be
present.
Incidentally, 'error' means that systemd had a problem loading or parsing a
unit file. 'failed' indicates that it tried to start a service, but the
service itself has a problem. So, for normal troubleshooting, this command
is probably more useful:
$ systemctl list-units | grep failed

New Fedora DVD 64 Install replaced my previous GRUB2 info! (Dual Boot)
by Nat Gross
I know that things just look bleak right now, someone please help me
see all my operating systems upon boot.
Ok, the details:
Windows 7 Ultra system with ONE 1-TB hard drive. Purchased that way.
When the last Ubuntu (11.4 I think) was released I installed it on the
system in order to practice KDE 4.6 when not using Windows, while
waiting for Fedora 15. So, until my Fedora 15 install on this machine,
Windows 7 was my primary system, KUbuntu secondary but with enough
tweaking that I don't want to wipe it until completely comfortable
with Fedora 15.
So, today I installed Fedora 15 from DVD. I made sure that it did not
use any of the used partitions and setup a new set of partitions for
Fedora 15.
Fedora installed ok and boots up, but to my horror F15 did not append
itself to the Grub2 list (installed by Ubuntu). So neither Windows 7
nor Ubuntu is available on the bootloader list.
This should be minor for those well versed with Grub2, but I am at a
loss and a bit frightened.
Thank you much,

Position Announcement: Indiana University Bloomington Libraries E-Science Librarian
by Laherty, Jennifer
E-Science Librarian
Assistant Librarian/Associate Librarian
Indiana University Bloomington Libraries
The IU Bloomington Libraries are seeking an energetic, innovative and service-oriented individual for the newly created position of E-Science Librarian at the Indiana University Bloomington Libraries. Reporting to the Head of the IUScholarWorks Department, the person in this position will also serve as an active member of the Libraries' Science Discipline Focused Working Group.
Founded in 1820, Indiana University-Bloomington has grown from a small state seminary into the flagship campus of a great public university with over 42,000 students and almost 3,000 faculty. Innovation, creativity, and academic freedom are hallmarks of IU Bloomington and its world-class contributions in research and the arts. The campus covers over 1,800 wooded acres and is distinctive for both its park-like beauty and an architectural heritage inspired by local craftsmanship in limestone. The Indiana University Bloomington Libraries (http://www.libraries.iub.edu) are among the leading academic research library systems in North America, having recently been named the top university library by the Association of College and Research Libraries. The IUB Libraries provide strong collections, quality service and instructional programs, and leadership in the application of information technologies. The IU Libraries system consists of eighteen libraries on the Bloomington campus, five libraries in Indianapolis, and a library at each of the other six campuses across the state. The collections support every academic discipline on campus and include more than 6.6 million books, journals, maps, films, and audio/visual materials in over 900 languages. Users can access more than 400 databases, 43,000 electronic journals, and 224,000 electronic books, as well as locally developed digital content.
The IUB Libraries are active members of regional and national associations and consortia including the Committee on Institutional Cooperation (CIC), the Association of Research Libraries (ARL), the Digital Library Federation (DLF), and is a founding member of HathiTrust, a shared digital repository. IU is the principle investigator for Kuali Open Library Environment (OLÉ) and is working with academic library partners to develop a next generation open source library management system.
The IU Bloomington Libraries collaborate extensively with University Information Technology Services (UITS) Research Technologies, UITS Enterprise Software, and the Data to Insight Center within the Pervasive Technology Institute. Primary areas of collaboration include shared infrastructure for data curation and mass storage for projects and services such as IUScholarWorks, the Digital Library Program, HathiTrust, including a shared virtual computing infrastructure known as the IU Intelligent Infrastructure and a multi-petabyte archival storage system mirrored between IU's Bloomington and Indianapolis campuses. In 2010, a university-wide task force, led by a Professor of Computer Science and Director of the Data to Insight Center, submitted a report recommending the establishment of an "organizational entity" to play a leadership role in supporting data management and preservation. This position will play a key role in that initiative.
