Hello every body, I am sorry for the disturbance with my replies. It is now 15 years that I use to use mailing list and it is the first time that people complains about my replies. What should I do ? Remove my signature to all my emails while it is automatically added ? I also checked my setup. I have 3 options when repying: Add original text message Indent original text message Always use default from adress. Only the 2 first ones are checked. Should I check the 3rd one also?

[pidora-18] keyboard problem
by André 02 Dec '13

02 Dec '13

I have used the 'be' (azerty ) keyboard during the installation, but at login screen it keep use a 'us' keyboard (qwerty). Once logged-in by using the keyboard definition I can use a 'be' keyboard but once back to the login screen it's again a 'us' keyboard that's used I can't figure-out how to fix this. Many thanks for your help. Andre

So what is the solution ? I tried fedora 16, fedora 18, fedora 19 (gnome3), all give the same result a \Phi is shown when a \Delta should be displayed.

will configuring network allow me to install *updated* packages right from the start?
by Robert P. J. Day 02 Dec '13

02 Dec '13

sorry if this is a trivial question -- i'm just about to read the install guide end-to-end and it might be in there. if i configure a wireless network early in the f19 installation process, will that support installing the updated versions of the packages, rather than making me do a sizable "yum update" post-install? rday

Best (Fedora) way to capture/archive videos for LATER editing?
by M. Fioretti 02 Dec '13

02 Dec '13

Greetings, I already know my way around nonlinear video editing on Linux. This time I'm looking for pointers to general information useful for the procedure below, as well as tips on the best software and hardware peripherals to do it on Fedora boxes. My relatives asked me to "make sense" of the family home made videos. So I should transform an ugly mess of already existing analog or digital movies of ALL sorts into one archive of digital video clips ready for later editing. "ALL sorts" means everything from VHS and DV tapes to home-made DVDs and NEVER edited footage by assorted camcorders, smartphones, digital cameras.. "later editing" means that the "ONLY" thing I'm supposed to do now is: - capture the video from FireWire camcorders, VHS players etc, when not already on file - discard all the useless scenes (like those ten-minutes-long close ups of the ground of the inside of a backpack, because somebody forgot to turn the camcorder off and started walking...) - convert all what's left, regardless of its origin, in clips in one open digital format. Possibly lossless, possibly able to carry some metadata inside like author, comments, subject tags... all the real editing and "publishing", like mixing clips, adding effects, titles and soundtracks, uploading to YouTube, burning to DVD, whatever.. will happen later, if/when somebody feels like it. I "just" have to prepare the raw video archive, that is to save the footage (minus the useless scenes) all in one place. Therefore, the questions are: what do you think is the best "one, open digital format" (assuming it exists...) that would make it possible later editing and transcoding, with the smallest possible degradation? What forums or online tutorials would you recommend to know more on this? What Fedora-compatible video capture hardware should I buy to hook VHS players, Firewire camcorders... to my computer? what tools do you recommend (command-line stuff is OK) for grabbing the video from that hardware, transcoding and saving to disk only specified parts automatically (meaning connect the VHS player, then tell Fedora "save by yourself only the first 5:30 minutes, then from minute 40:20 to 43:10, of the incoming video") Thanks a lot for any feedback Marco

Very OT Postgres
by Roger 01 Dec '13

01 Dec '13

Sorry for the very OT about postgres, (only claim to fame is it's on Feora 19), but I've been on this all day and am lost, searched StackOverflow, Postgresql pages, etc, and I am no further. I hope a psql database admin can explain. I have a postgres database: registration_test owned by postgres UTF8, Access privileges =Tc/postgres, postgres=CTc/postgres, tester=CTc/postgres Role named tester to which out of desperation I gave superuser privileges. When I run rails command - rake test /test/mailers/notifier_test.rb I get error: PG::InsufficientPrivilege: ERROR: must be owner of database registration_test Apparently it cannot drop and recreate the database. Rails4 database.yml test: adapter: postgresql database: registration_test encoding: unicode pool: 5 username: password: Same yml, privileges, etc as development and production and they work well. pg_hba.conf: local all postgres 127.0.0.1/32 @authmethodhost@ local all tester 127.0.0.1/32 @authmethodhost@ Also cannot find info on what CTc/postgres means, some privileges have C*T*c*/postgres, couldn't find info on that either. Have restarted and reloaded postgres. Help is greatly appreciated, thank you in advance. Roger
