Unable to force wodim to write a CD at 2X speed
by JD 28 Aug '12

28 Aug '12

using driveropts=forcespeed speed=2 .....etc does not work using ... speed=2 ..... does not work wodim always writes at the medium's encoded speed, which ranges from 10X to 24x. However, using speed=2 on DVD media DOES work. Here is the content of /etc/wodim.conf which I gleaned from the web. CDR_DEVICE=/dev/sr0 CDR_SPEED=2 CDR_FIFOSIZE=128m DVDR_DEVICE=/dev/sr0 DVDR_SPEED=2 DVDR_FIFOSIZE=128m TS=128 GRACETIME=10

samba/cifs/smb issue with libreoffice.
by Gary Artim 28 Aug '12

28 Aug '12

I got a dozen or so people using smb/cifs on both fedora desktop and virtualbox/win7. Recently I upgraded a desktop to fc17 and her linux desktop dolphin file browser stalls/hang and she can still run other apps, but libre and dolphin and hung. I have double checked the setting and they looked the same. I tried a reinstall of all her samba software, no help. Did a complete new install of fc17, same problem. Other desktop with work, both linux and vb/win7. The virtualbox/win7 access works fine on the same machine, leads me to think its a kde or smb/cifs issue or config. Any advice or comments welcomed...thanks server side: samba-winbind-3.6.6-92.fc17.1.x86_64 samba-client-3.6.6-92.fc17.1.x86_64 system-config-samba-1.2.97-1.fc17.noarch samba-winbind-clients-3.6.6-92.fc17.1.x86_64 samba-3.6.6-92.fc17.1.x86_64 kdenetwork-fileshare-samba-4.8.5-1.fc17.x86_64 samba-common-3.6.6-92.fc17.1.x86_64 need to get the client side.

F16>F17: F17 can't find root by uuid - which exists!
by sean darcy 27 Aug '12

27 Aug '12

Upgrading from F16 to F17. F17 boot fails because dracut can't find the root partition, which is listed by uuid. This is the same uuid used in F16, and when I run blkid at the dracut prompt : there it is! And yes, I've checked character by character. I changed fstab to use /dev/sda2, but that doesn't help. How do I edit grub2 to point to /dev/sda2 so at least I can boot? And anyone know why dracut is having such a problem with uuid? sean

No irq handler for vector -> dead keyboard
by DJ Delorie 27 Aug '12

27 Aug '12

I've been getting a ton of these. They seem to persist across kernel updates ever since I first put F17 on. Once they start happening, usually within a few hours of a reboot, they PS2 keyboard stops working right (first keypress is lost, autorepeat keypresses come through) although restarting X seems to fix them. Unplugging the keyboard and plugging it back in does not fix anything. The errors keep happening even though the keyboard is not plugged in at all at the moment (USB keyboards work fine) Motherboard is a GA-X58A-UD3R with an I7 X980, 24 GB of RAM, an SSD for boot and two 3TB drives for data. ATI Radeon HD graphics. A couple of other pci/pcie cards if it matters. Any ideas?

Spam question
by Aaron Konstam 27 Aug '12

27 Aug '12

Suddenly last week I downloaded from a POP server 255 messages of which over 200 were spam. After a little study of the evolution setup it became clear that someone had captured my e-mail address and was filling my mail queue with spam. They advertised different services but the form of the messages made it clear they had only one source. However identical spam message had different Mail Ids and seemed to come from a different address. Using spamassassin I got thsio spam under control, However Is there someway from the mail header to deduce the origin of the messages? -- ======================================================================= Nobody's gonna believe that computers are intelligent until they start coming in late and lying about it. ======================================================================= Aaron Konstam telephone: (210) 656-0355 e-mail: akonstam(a)sbcglobal.net

Openvpn: how to start at login?
by Timothy Murphy 26 Aug '12

26 Aug '12

I have a script --------------------------------- #! /bin/sh sudo systemctl restart openvpn(a)client.service --------------------------------- which I run (under Fedora-17) if vpn is not connected when I logon (normally after hibernating). I'm wondering if there is a "systemctl enable" or similar command which will do this more simply? -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College Dublin
