Greetings,
I know that this is a common issue. However, the Google Oracle hasn't
yielded any tractable solutions.
So, whot's the procedure to remedy yellow-spectled youtube videos?
Much thanks!

[Call to Arms] Fedora 19 Test Days starts this week
by Martin Holec
Hi Fedora users, developers and friends!
today Fedora 19 was branched from Rawhide. That means testing season begins now and will continue till Fedora 19 Final Release, which may be (or may not be) on 2013-06-25. Please, fasten your seatbelts, fire up your virtual or baremetal machines and enjoy this crash testing ride with us.
Remember: https://is0.4sqi.net/userpix/D1Y3XKHJVN4GIMRW.jpg
Before Alpha will (or won't) be ready on 2013-04-16, we have prepared some Test Days[0] for you. Starting this Thursday with KDE 4.10 [1] with one major innovation. You are invited to try how new KDE 4.10 [2] stuff not only using Fedora 19 Live test images, but also from updates-testing repository on your current Fedora stable installation, including both Fedora 18 and Fedora 17 releases. For first time, you can test new version of whole KDE platform before it rolls up and in as an stable update for your Fedora!

[1] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Day:2013-03-14_KDE_4.10
[2] http://www.kde.org/announcements/4.10/
Well, you may already know about and use Bodhi[3] with karma voting process. But Test Day provides an opportunity to actually talk to developers before KDE 4.10 reaches stable updates and interactively report, explore, debug and fix your issues (or at least find workarounds for the time being). Together we can make this update less painful for everyday Fedora KDE users.
[3] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/
Join IRC #fedora-test-day on FreeNode and ask QA or developers for help, if you get into trouble. We can try to find workarounds and help you with debugging. Please report all bugs under appropriate component preferably at upstream bugzilla https://bugs.kde.org/ regarding common KDE 4.10 issues or Red Hat bugzilla http://bugzilla.redhat.com/ if you have problems with Fedora distribution integration. You can also report other Fedora bugs not related to this Test Day. Feel free to ask on IRC, if you don't know against which component or on what bugzilla you should fill the report.
See you in Bugzilla!
Best Regards,
Martin Holec

scidavis
by Patrick Dupre
Hello,
I received comments about installing packages not built for fedora.
Is it an acceptable comment?
Example.
I would like to install scidavis. Unfortunately, yum install scidavis
fails: No package scidavis available
What are the other options?
1) scidavis is available for fedora 14 (and 15?), but not for newest versions:
fedora 16 shown up last year!
2) try to find a binary distribution for linux, like
scidavis-0.2.4-linux-x86-qt4.4-py2.5.tar.bz2
supposed to work opn fedora:
(see http://scidavis.sourceforge.net/download.html).
but then:
./scidavis: error while loading shared libraries: libpython2.5.so.1.0:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
fedora 18 provides: libpython2.7.so.1.0.
3) from the sources: scidavis-0.2.4.tar.bz2
but the compilation fails:
cd scidavis/ && make -f Makefile
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/misc/scidavis/scidavis-0.2.4/scidavis'

while qwt_plot.h is in /usr/include/qwt/qwt_plot.h or

My impression is that people should make some efforts to offer only a
few numbers of distributions
and collaborate to offer a nice and polished distribution!
Do not insult me for my point of view.
Regards.

network routing.
by Gary Artim
I have a problems using a patch cable and trying to route though
another machine. The client is a minimum installed machine and the
router is just a simple dhcp desktop. Is there some packages that
*dont* come with the minimum install that would keep you from getting
a simple route. Tried everything but network trace and the route
stalls. I can ping in both directions, so I dont think its driver
related. I dropped firewalld on both machine as well as tried NAT
masquerading, nada. Seems strange. config:
client:
NM_CONTROLLED="yes"
BOOTPROTO="static"
DEVICE="em1"
IPADDR=192.168.0.11
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
ONBOOT=yes
HWADDR=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx

DEFROUTE=yes
PEERDNS=yes

IPV4_FAILURE_FATAL=no
IPV6INIT=no
NAME="System em1"
GATEWAY=192.168.0.1
DNS1=75.75.75.75
DNS2=75.75.76.76
router:
NM_CONTROLLED="yes"
BOOTPROTO="static"
DEVICE="em1"
IPADDR=192.168.0.1
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
ONBOOT=yes

IPV4_FAILURE_FATAL=no

I remember setting up a boot server sometime ago and something missing
network wise on a min installed machine? any help/suggestions would be
great!

XFce panel justification
by Max Pyziur
Greetings,
With F18, all items in a panel, at least those that you place across the
top or bottom of a screen, seem to be left-justfied by some sort of
default.
Is there a way to change this?
Thanks.

OK, what update broke things?
by Tom Horsley
I could play movies perfectly well a few days ago,
passing the digital audio tracks directly to my
receiver via the optical audio output by reshuffling
the pulseaudio output device while playing the movie.
Suddenly, I get no audio and I see this nonsense from
attempting to run mplayer:
Opening audio decoder: [hwac3] AC3/DTS pass-through S/PDIF
hwac3: switched to AC3, 384000 bps, 48000 Hz
AUDIO: 48000 Hz, 2 ch, ac3be, 384.0 kbit/25.00% (ratio: 48000->192000)
Selected audio codec: [hwac3] afm: hwac3 (AC3 through S/PDIF)
==========================================================================

[AO_ALSA] Format ac3be is not supported by hardware, trying default.
AO: [alsa] 48000Hz 2ch ac3le (2 bytes per sample)
I'm about to try switch to older kernel and see if I get
sound there...
