ps2eps disappears after installation
by Ranjan Maitra 16 Oct '13

16 Oct '13

OK, I found the solution while writing this e-mail, but here it is for the record....there is clearly a link in need of update for the package..... So, I tried the following: $ sudo yum provides */ps2eps Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, langpacks, remove-with-leaves Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * fedora: mirror.anl.gov * rpmfusion-free: mirror.nexcess.net * rpmfusion-free-updates: mirror.nexcess.net * rpmfusion-nonfree: mirror.nexcess.net * rpmfusion-nonfree-updates: ftp.nluug.nl * updates: mirror.oss.ou.edu ps2eps-1.68-5.fc19.x86_64 : PS-to-EPS converter Repo : fedora Matched from: Filename : /usr/bin/ps2eps 2:texlive-base-2012-22.20130427_r30134.fc19.noarch : TeX Live filesystem, ...: metadata and licenses shipped in text form Repo : fedora Matched from: Filename : /usr/share/texlive/texmf/scripts/ps2eps 3:texlive-base-2013-0.1.20130608_r30832.fc19.noarch : TeX Live filesystem, ...: metadata and licenses shipped in text form Repo : updates Matched from: Filename : /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/scripts/ps2eps 2:texlive-pstools-bin-svn27329.0-22.20130427_r30134.fc19.x86_64 : Binaries for : pstools Repo : fedora Matched from: Filename : /usr/bin/ps2eps 3:texlive-pstools-bin-svn30088.0-0.1.20130608_r30832.fc19.x86_64 : Binaries for : pstools Repo : updates Matched from: Filename : /usr/bin/ps2eps 3:texlive-pstools-bin-svn30088.0-0.1.20130608_r30832.fc19.x86_64 : Binaries for : pstools Repo : @updates Matched from: Filename : /usr/bin/ps2eps Looks like yum install ps2eps should install this. So, I go ahead and do exactly the same: $ sudo yum install ps2eps Package ps2eps is obsoleted by texlive-pstools-bin, trying to install 3:texlive-pstools-bin-svn30088.0-0.1.20130608_r30832.fc19.x86_64 instead Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package texlive-pstools-bin.x86_64 3:svn30088.0-0.1.20130608_r30832.fc19 will be installed --> Finished Dependency Resolution ..... Installed! However, I try the following: $ps2eps (command not found). $ll /usr/bin/ps2eps lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 54 Oct 16 07:36 /usr/bin/ps2eps -> /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/scripts/ps2eps/ps2eps.pl The last is a dud link. Indeed, $sudo yum provides */ps2eps.pl ....gives texlive-pstools to be installed $sudo yum install texlive-pstools and we go on with life as usual...(so ps2eps or texlive-pstools-bin should point to texlive-pstools while instaling then? ) Ranjan ____________________________________________________________ FREE 3D EARTH SCREENSAVER - Watch the Earth right on your desktop!

exp10
by Patrick Dupre 15 Oct '13

Hello, when I do man exp10, it appears that this function should be in the math library. However, when I look inside /usr/include/math.h, there is no function like exp10! Where is the declaration of this function? Wihtout, I get: error: implicit declaration of function ‘exp10’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration] What is wrong?

Printing problem with cups-1.6.4-2.fc19
by Joachim Backes 15 Oct '13

15 Oct '13

Hi all, having a problem since having updated to cups.x86_64 1:1.6.4-2.fc19 cups-filters.x86_64 0:1.0.38-2.fc19 cups-filters-libs.x86_64 0:1.0.38-2.fc19 cups-devel.x86_64 1:1.6.4-2.fc19 cups-filesystem.noarch 1:1.6.4-2.fc19 cups-libs.i686 1:1.6.4-2.fc19 cups-libs.x86_64 1:1.6.4-2.fc19 I use some Libreoffice documents with gray background. I'm printing to a Samsung ML-1660 B/W printer. Since that cups version update, the gray parts of my document are signifinatly darker printed than with the previous cups version, and the gray areas are not smoothly printed. I have the impression that the color management now fails in cups. Anybody has similar problem? All comments are welcome.

Yesterdays update
by jarmo 15 Oct '13

15 Oct '13

Hi Yesterday evening got updates to f19, somethin 900M. Update went smoothly, but reboot didn't manage. Again got that Plymouth stuck. Renamed /var/log/journal Journal.org and got things working again. Now I disabled plymouth in start, adding to kernel line plymouth.enable=0. All working fine, now question, where and why we need this Plymouth? Because of candy? First feeling was, that f19 started little bit smoother without plymouth. Ofcource my computer is somewhere 2007 intel "dual" core wit 2G ram, so should work still. Using Xfce4 as wm.... Jarmo

"Copy To" & "Move To" options missing in Dolphin & Konqueror
by Steven P. Ulrick 14 Oct '13

14 Oct '13

Hello Everyone I recently moved my old ~/.kde directory out of the way because of issues that I was having. Those problems are now fixed :) But I just noticed that the "Copy To" & "Move To" options are not in the right click context menus anymore. I can't even find where to configure it... I should say that the options to configure that are no longer where they USED to be... Any help you can give me on getting this feature back is greatly appreciated. Steven P. Ulrick

systemd[1]: Starting Fingerprint Authentication Daemon...
by Mateusz Marzantowicz 14 Oct '13

14 Oct '13

I don't have any fingerprint reader connected to my machine. Why is systemd starting this useless daemon in this case? I've heard somewhere that systemd tends to be more intelligent version of sysvinit that does only what is really needed to save time and system resources. Here are two lines from my system logs on F19 machine. systemd[1]: Starting Fingerprint Authentication Daemon... systemd[1]: Started Fingerprint Authentication Daemon. Mateusz Marzantowicz

Status of Samsung F2FS support?
by Fernando Cassia 14 Oct '13

14 Oct '13

Hi there, I wonder what is the current status with regards to Samsung F2FS boot support. When I first heard about F2FS I thought it'd be a nice solution to finally be able to get a full R/W Linux installed on a pen drive, without tricks like ram drives... So far, I haven't seen a Linux distro that allows placing /boot /root and /home into a F2FS filesystem. The ideal scenario would be to boot an install ISO from one pen drive, and create a permanent installation on a second pen drive inserted into another port, then afterwards boot from that second F2FS formatted drive... Thoughts? Comments? Expletives? ;-))) FC -- During times of Universal Deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act - George Orwell

How to keep an old kernel?
by Timothy Murphy 14 Oct '13

14 Oct '13

I'm running Fedora-19/KDE on a Thinkpad T61. I had serious problems with hibernation when kernel-3.11 first came on the scene. Things have slightly improved now, but I still occasionally have what seems like the same problem, one symptom being that I cannot shutdown except by pressing the power button. In any case, I have one 3.10 kernel in my three grub kernels. I'm yum-updating with exclude=kernel* to avoid losing this kernel. But I'm wondering if there is some way of telling yum that I want to keep this kernel, but would like to update the current kernel? -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland

3D printing
by antonio montagnani 14 Oct '13

14 Oct '13

we are testing a 3D printer, with Marlin driver.With Repitiert Host at first test we didn't get any connection with 250000 baud rate.From googling around I am confused if 250000 baud can be accepted by Fedora (I think so) Printer works fine in Windows with same baud rate.Are we missing some point?? Printer is 3drag from an Italian company, Futura Elettronica -- Antonio M Skype: amontag52 Linux Fedora F19(Schroedinger's cat) on Acer 5720 http://lugsaronno.altervista.org http://www.campingmonterosa.com
