guitars, fedora, penguins
by Ian Malone 02 Apr '12

02 Apr '12

Hi, for a while now I've been keeping a blog on doing various guitar things with Fedora, http://ibmalone.blogspot.co.uk/ it's mainly written as an aide memoire, but there's probably enough there that it's useful to other people. -- imalone

F16 security spin, LibreOffice instabilities
by Joel Rees 01 Apr '12

01 Apr '12

Lenovo S-100 pseudo-netbook (intel 64 running 32 bit) with Fedora installed from the F16 Security spin (LXDE) live USB. Posted earlier, no response, about it generally hanging the X11 session on logout if I switch to a virtual console to do something while logged in on an X11 session. Can telinit 2 and 5 to get it back once or twice. Trying to use LibreOffice, if I open more than one document, quitting tends to kill the panel, leaving things in an awkward, partially functioning state. Can keep doing things I don't need the panel for. I'm sure I need some library for LibreOffice that didn't get picked up in the dependency check when I installed it. Anyone have a suggestion? -- Joel Rees

Why all the i686 dependencies when installing x64 wine?

When I try to install x64 wine (I'm trying to remove all of the i686/i486 packages from my x64 Fedora install), I see the following: ==================================================================================================================================== Package Arch Version Repository Size ==================================================================================================================================== Installing: wine x86_64 1.5.1-1.fc18 rawhide 36 k Installing for dependencies: alsa-lib i686 1.0.25-3.fc17 fedora 361 k alsa-plugins-pulseaudio i686 1.0.25-1.fc17 fedora 36 k cdparanoia-libs i686 10.2-11.fc17 fedora 48 k cyrus-sasl-lib i686 2.1.23-29.fc18 rawhide 137 k flac i686 1.2.1-9.fc17 fedora 859 k gd i686 2.0.35-16.fc18 rawhide 141 k gsm i686 1.0.13-6.fc17 fedora 28 k gstreamer i686 0.10.36-1.fc18 rawhide 938 k gstreamer-plugins-base i686 0.10.36-1.fc18 rawhide 1.2 M json-c i686 0.9-4.fc17 fedora 20 k lcms-libs i686 1.19-5.fc17 fedora 101 k libXpm i686 3.5.10-1.fc17 fedora 50 k libXtst i686 1.2.0-3.fc17 fedora 26 k libXv i686 1.0.7-1.fc17 fedora 24 k libasyncns i686 0.8-3.fc17 fedora 25 k libdb i686 5.2.36-5.fc18 rawhide 702 k liberation-narrow-fonts noarch 1.07.2-3.fc18 rawhide 193 k libexif i686 0.6.20-2.fc17 fedora 318 k libgphoto2 i686 2.4.13-1.fc18 rawhide 1.0 M libogg i686 2:1.2.2-4.fc17 fedora 23 k libsndfile i686 1.0.25-2.fc17 fedora 154 k libtheora i686 1:1.1.1-3.fc17 fedora 131 k libtool-ltdl i686 2.4.2-3.fc17 fedora 45 k libusb i686 1:0.1.3-10.fc17 fedora 17 k libusb1 i686 1.0.9-0.6.rc1.fc18 rawhide 80 k libvisual i686 0.4.0-11.fc17 fedora 136 k libvorbis i686 1:1.3.3-1.fc17 fedora 186 k lockdev i686 1.0.4-0.4.20111007git.fc17 fedora 28 k mingw32-wine-gecko noarch 1.5-2.fc18 rawhide 15 M mingw64-wine-gecko noarch 1.5-2.fc18 rawhide 16 M nspr i686 4.9-2.fc18 rawhide 115 k nss i686 3.13.3-4.fc18 rawhide 762 k nss-mdns i686 0.10-10.fc17 fedora 24 k nss-mdns x86_64 0.10-10.fc17 fedora 23 k nss-softokn i686 3.13.3-2.fc18 rawhide 179 k nss-util i686 3.13.3-3.fc18 rawhide 51 k openal-soft i686 1.13-1.fc17 fedora 118 k openal-soft x86_64 1.13-1.fc17 fedora 125 k openldap i686 2.4.30-2.fc18 rawhide 273 k orc i686 0.4.16-5.fc17 fedora 152 k pulseaudio-libs i686 1.1-8.fc18 rawhide 447 k wine-alsa i686 1.5.1-1.fc18 rawhide 77 k wine-alsa x86_64 1.5.1-1.fc18 rawhide 80 k wine-capi i686 1.5.1-1.fc18 rawhide 40 k wine-capi x86_64 1.5.1-1.fc18 rawhide 41 k wine-cms i686 1.5.1-1.fc18 rawhide 55 k wine-cms x86_64 1.5.1-1.fc18 rawhide 57 k wine-common noarch 1.5.1-1.fc18 rawhide 108 k wine-core i686 1.5.1-1.fc18 rawhide 14 M wine-core x86_64 1.5.1-1.fc18 rawhide 14 M wine-courier-fonts noarch 1.5.1-1.fc18 rawhide 49 k wine-desktop noarch 1.5.1-1.fc18 rawhide 123 k wine-fonts noarch 1.5.1-1.fc18 rawhide 36 k wine-ldap i686 1.5.1-1.fc18 rawhide 101 k wine-ldap x86_64 1.5.1-1.fc18 rawhide 107 k wine-marlett-fonts noarch 1.5.1-1.fc18 rawhide 48 k wine-ms-sans-serif-fonts noarch 1.5.1-1.fc18 rawhide 60 k wine-openal i686 1.5.1-1.fc18 rawhide 47 k wine-openal x86_64 1.5.1-1.fc18 rawhide 48 k wine-pulseaudio i686 1.5.1-1.fc18 rawhide 35 k wine-pulseaudio x86_64 1.5.1-1.fc18 rawhide 35 k wine-small-fonts noarch 1.5.1-1.fc18 rawhide 51 k wine-symbol-fonts noarch 1.5.1-1.fc18 rawhide 61 k wine-system-fonts noarch 1.5.1-1.fc18 rawhide 54 k wine-systemd noarch 1.5.1-1.fc18 rawhide 36 k wine-tahoma-fonts noarch 1.5.1-1.fc18 rawhide 109 k wine-twain i686 1.5.1-1.fc18 rawhide 62 k wine-twain x86_64 1.5.1-1.fc18 rawhide 63 k wine-wow x86_64 1.5.1-1.fc18 rawhide 230 k Updating for dependencies: libXpm x86_64 3.5.10-1.fc17 fedora 50 k libXv x86_64 1.0.7-1.fc17 fedora 24 k libgphoto2 x86_64 2.4.13-1.fc18 rawhide 1.1 M nspr x86_64 4.9-2.fc18 rawhide 111 k nss x86_64 3.13.3-4.fc18 rawhide 757 k nss-softokn x86_64 3.13.3-2.fc18 rawhide 178 k nss-sysinit x86_64 3.13.3-4.fc18 rawhide 34 k nss-util x86_64 3.13.3-3.fc18 rawhide 53 k openldap x86_64 2.4.30-2.fc18 rawhide 273 k Why are there so many i686 multilib dependencies?

What is virtuoso-t doing?
by Timothy Murphy 01 Apr '12

01 Apr '12

When I reboot and login into my Fedora-16/KDE laptop I see from "top" that virtuoso-t is taking 150$ or more of my CPU. This lasts for a minute or two, and results in the boot being very Windows-like, ie nothing can be done until virtuoso-t calms down. I think this has only been happening fairly recently. I certainly don't recall it with older versions of Fedora. But is virtuoso-t doing something useful that has to be completed before I can use the laptop? -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College Dublin

Issue with reading CD's...
by R. Welsh 01 Apr '12

01 Apr '12

Hello, I have encountered an issue in F16. Just 3 weeks ago I was able to read audio CD's just fine on either an internal SATA DVD drive that I have on my system or an external USB DVD drive. Just tried to play an audio CD on either drive today and am not getting data transfer rates that make sense. Example: I copied a 5.2MB MP3 file from the CD to hard drive and this took 45 seconds, whether I am reading the CD with either DVD drive to either the internal primary hard drive inside my system or an external hard drive connected to the USB port. Once a file is transferred to hard drive, the file plays just fine. I have tried booting with kernel 3.2.10-3 and kernel 3.3.0-4 and the same results either way. I have booted this same set of hardware with Win7 and the DVD drives work fine. Can anyone give some guidance on what might be causing an issue? Bob W.

Is there a UI for /etc/libvirt/qemu/networks
by Sam Varshavchik 01 Apr '12

01 Apr '12

I'd like to tweak some of the DHCP settings in /etc/libvirt/qemnu/networks; specifically assign fixed IP addresses to selected guests. Is there a UI for this, somewhere, or I just go and edit it, by hand?
