This error has already been flagged, but I have yet to find a safe and reliable method for solving it. On exiting the dracut message Fedora 16 boots successfully.

multi reboots to get lirc to work in F15...
by dwoody1 08 Feb '12

08 Feb '12

The computer is setup for Mythtv. I have recently upgraded from F14 to F15. The lirc works only after many reboots on F15. Lirc worked perfectly on F14. Searching the archives on Fedora has yielded no information. I have found others that have the same problem by doing web search but there were no solutions to be had. The remote is a RC-6 Microsoft remote that has been in use for several years. lsmod shows: ir_lirc_codec 3902 0 lirc_dev 12212 1 ir_lirc_codec rc_core 16034 13 rc_hauppauge,rc_rc6_mce,mceusb,ir_lirc_codec,ir_mce_kbd_decoder,ir_sony_decoder,ir_jvc_decoder,ir_rc6_decoder,ir_rc5_decoder,cx88xx,ir_nec_decoder The last lines in /var/log/messages are: Feb 8 17:14:08 star kernel: [ 9.768401] lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, major 249 Feb 8 17:14:08 star kernel: [ 9.856323] rc rc0: lirc_dev: driver ir-lirc-codec (mceusb) registered at minor = 0 Feb 8 17:14:08 star kernel: [ 9.972748] rc rc1: lirc_dev: driver ir-lirc-codec (cx88xx) registered at minor = 1 Some times the log will show client removed but not always. The upgrade to F15 was done with preupgrade. Any help is appreciated, David

What list to use?
by don fisher 08 Feb '12

08 Feb '12

If one discovers a missing piece in the system, to which mailing list should it be reported? For example, trying to run grub2-mkrescue results in the error: /usr/bin/grub2-mkrescue: line 310: xorriso: command not found I assume that when grub2-mkrescue was loaded, it was assumed that xorriso would be there. The --help says: Usage: grub2-mkrescue [OPTION] SOURCE... Make GRUB rescue image. -h, --help print this message and exit -v, --version print the version information and exit -o, --output=FILE save output in FILE [required] --modules=MODULES pre-load specified modules MODULES --rom-directory=DIR save rom images in DIR [optional] --xorriso=FILE use FILE as xorriso [optional] --grub-mkimage=FILE use FILE as grub-mkimage grub2-mkrescue generates a bootable rescue image with specified source files, source directories, or mkisofs options listed by: xorriso -as mkisofs -help Option -- switches to native xorriso command mode. Report bugs to <bug-grub(a)gnu.org>. Mail xorriso support requests to <bug-xorriso(a)gnu.org>. Don

Horizontal workspaces in Gnome3?
by Christopher Svanefalk 08 Feb '12

08 Feb '12

Dear all, does anyone know if there is any way (by plugin or otherwise) to get horizontal workspaces that can have windows stretched across them in Gnome3? This could be done with compiz in Gnome2, and it was a huge part of my Eclipse perspective setups...I miss it, but have not seen any way to work around it. I know the obvious solution would be to switch to XFCE or LXDE (or equivalent), but before considering that I wanted to see if it can be done in Gnome3, since I overall have started to like it rather well. Best, Christopher

Debugging messages may help finding a solution to your problem. If you intend to send any error or debug messages to the gphoto developer mailing list <gphoto-devel(a)lists.sourceforge.net>, please run gphoto2 as follows: env LANG=C gphoto2 --debug --debug-logfile=my-logfile.txt -l Please make sure there is sufficient quoting around the arguments. while as root: There is 1 folder in folder '/'. - store_00010001 There are 0 folders in folder '/store_00010001'. lsusb Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 001 Device 002: ID 413c:a005 Dell Computer Corp.

Android anyone?
by Timothy Murphy 07 Feb '12

07 Feb '12

I've just acquired a Samsung Galaxy S2 phone, and am somewhat disappointed at the lack of Fedora facilities for communicating with the phone. Is there any documentation explaining eg how to transfer contacts to and from an Android phone? The only Fedora documentation I have found is concerned with development, presumably on the phone. I'm looking for something much lower down the intellectual ladder. I've seen it suggested that the android-tools package is the Linux version of the Windows program Kries (which works out "out of the box" on the phone) but it seems to be aimed at an entirely different audience. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College Dublin
