Power Outage, USB drive not mounting
by Robert Moskowitz
OK. I had this problem back in December and thought I had it all worked
out.
So today I had my first power outage that exceeded my UPS and now I
can't get the external USB drive mounted.
Here is the info:
Server is FC12
USB drive is EXT4 and labeled 2GHJTCB4
It mounts just fine on my notebook running FC14.
I disconnected the drive and rebooted the FC12 server. I VNCed in as a
user to get the Gnome magic mounting running. I powered up the drive,
then plugged it in.
Nothing. It is not showing in either /media or via Palimpsest Disk Utility
I've GOT to get this thing mounted before my wife needs her files on the
drive....
help please (pathetic cry of husband waiting for wife to find out what
else is not right after the neighborhood-wide outage)....

ADVICE REQUIRED: Fedora causing sx280 machine to crash
by dean north (BITS)
All,
I am looking for some advice.
I am currently installing the latest version of Fedora on an Dell Optiplex SX280. The install works, Fedora boots fine and I can log in, but after a while the system crashes. Most commonly when starting Terminal or firefox the system freezes or crashes with PANIC OCCURRED, SWITCHING BACK TO TEXT CONSOLE. But I am then unable to do anything from there.
I have posted the a part of the messages file at http://fpaste.org/bDgF/ which proved rather difficult to obtain due to the crashes.
If anyone has seen this before or knows of how I can resolve this your knowledge would be greatly welcomed
Thanks & Regards
Dean North

F15: Second monitor not detected after booting finishes
by Steven F. LeBrun
When Fedora 15 [x86_64] is booting on my laptop, it starts on the laptop
screen, then it throws the startup splash screen on my second monitor.
When it finishes booting, it no longer can detect the second monitor.
Why can Fedora 15 see both monitors, laptop screen and external monitor,
during the boot process then when finished booting can no longer detect
second external monitor. Is this a problem with the kernel, modules,
drivers, desktop, hardware?
I have tried connecting the external monitor directly to the laptop with
an HDMI connector and through an USB Docking Station using DVI.
OS: Fedora 15 x86_64
Kernel: 2.6.38-35.fc15.x86_64
Desktop: Gnome 3.0.1
System: Dell XPS 15R (i5-2410M CPU @ 2.30GHz x 4)
Graphics: Intel Sandybridge Mobile
Memory: 8 GB
