Why not? We've often mentioned Ubuntu here and I think I've mentioned
Puppy once or twice. Mentioning them is fine, even recommending them
for specific people or uses is OK; just avoid advocacy.

AD authentication
by Will Yonker
Hi,
I've just setup a pair of Fedora 18 boxes that I could use
some help with getting them to join the active directory domain we have at
work (2008 I think). What I would like is for users in a particular
group in AD be allowed to log into the Fedora 18 boxes without me having
to create accounts (and manage passwords) on the Fedora boxes. Is
that possible?
Thanks for any help!

Need Help - .CD/DVD ROM Drive Not Seen By OS.....
by EGO-II.1
I know this is a Fedora-oriented community mailing list, but seeing as
how I don't have "access" to another distro's "support network" I
figured I would ask here and hope for the best. Here's the scenario:
I recently downloaded and burned to DVD the .iso file for a certain
Linux distro, and everything checked out fine in regards to the download
/ burn-copy process. But when I insert the CD into another laptop to
install this distro onto that laptops's hard drive I get to the main
installation menu, which offers me the option to install using the
Command Line or the GUI. I chose the GUI (since I suck at the comand
line...for NOW!) and the first selection after I chose the GUI is to
choose my language, then to set the keyboard, but immediately after
those it asks me to select the type of CD drive (SCSI or "Other") I have
gone through the ENTIRE list of offerings in those lists but it doesn't
recognize ANY of them.....can someone please tell me what the proper
procedure is to get me past this point?....the laptop in question is a
Lenovo T-420 with 4 GB of memory..a 320 HDD...and an internal / modular
CD-ROM drive....
Thanks...

Thks, you pointed me the right direction. gnome-tweak-tool only lists
themes available for both GTK2 and GTK3. I had only GTK3 versions
installed, and that's why they were being ignored. Once I installed their
GTK2 counterparts, bingo, all themes were available =)

firewalld v. libvirtd
by Robert Locke
Just took the leap in to Fedora 18 from 17.
In Fedora 17, I simply added a custom rule in the old
system-config-firewall to point to a file that had a trust of the
libvirt based virbr0 interface.
The new system-config-firewall has me a bit confused....
I would like to keep the new firewalld and it's initial presumption that
my em1 and wlan0 interfaces are in the "public" zone generally not
allowing unsolicited inbound activity. This appears to be the default
OOBE.
I would like to associate the virbr0 interface, created by libvirtd, to
be considered part of the "internal" zone, since I "trust" my own VMs
talking to the host. But, what is the "supportable" method for
accomplishing this? There is no ifcfg- where I could put the firewall
zone....
Thanks in advance,

recommendations for SSD drive as first disk for fedora 18?
by Robert P. J. Day
after a while living with ubuntu, i'm moving back to fedora as of
F18, and would like some advice. i have an ASUS G74S with twin 750G
drives, but i want to replace the boot drive with an SSD, and install
F18 in such a way as to maximize the benefit of the SSD for booting
and (mostly) R/O storage.
a lot of my time will be spent doing lengthy compiles (kernel,
openembedded), so in addition to system content on the SSD, i'll want
to keep all of my source there as well, while the build directories
will be on the regular drive.
is there a recommendation for installing F18 in terms of separating
what's appropriate for the SSD versus what isn't? most of that is
fairly obvious, just wondering if anyone wrote up something about
their experience doing just that and how well it worked for them.
thanks.

If you want people to know exactly what it sounds like, and maybe help
with diagnosis, upload a small sound file somewhere.
It could well be that one of your computers has a bad sound card. My
laptop has a next-to-useless one, as far as inputting audio goes.
