My apology if offended any one, I didn't see any answer for several days

going through boot and reboot it became a bit annoying, I have another
email send about the same time subject "F18 installation on HP envy" I
didn't get answer.

They should have moderated you and your mouth, and pen off of this list a
long, long time ago.

"hackers"
by Richard Vickery
Does anyone care to help me change the negative connotation that the
outside world has of this term, one step at a time? The CBC just used the
term with a negative frame on the Tuesday, 23 April 2013 30-minute radio
news at about the half-way point. Everyone ought to go to this link and
suggest that they should quit abusing the term.
http://www.cbc.ca/w6/contact/
to listen to her abuse of the term, go to the link with "contact" removed /
deleted - before Wednesday, 25 April at UTC 01:00 (PDT 18:00, in case I did
the math wrong).
Of course, the media are infamous for abusing scientific terms, such as
calling the Higgs boson the god particle - a term scientists loathe - so I
out not lose too much sleep over it.

Richard

AGAIN: learn to use your mail-client and quote before use mailing-lists
if you want to play political games go somewhere else and leave
distribution specific lists in peace!
AND ESPECIALLY DO NOT TAKE THEM TO THE DEVEL-LIST

EndSection
Now i can watch movies and tv in living room.
Wireless mouse + fvwm is enough.
Bye xbmc and DLNA, it's more comfortable to have complete desktop on TV.
HW (H264) acceleration is working too.
If anyone is interested:
Installed Packages:
libva.x86_64 1.1.1-2.fc18 @updates
libva-devel.x86_64 1.1.1-2.fc18 @updates
libva-utils.x86_64 1.1.1-2.fc18 @updates
xorg-x11-drv-catalyst.x86_64 13.1-1.fc18 @rpmfusion-nonfree-updates
and
xvba-video-0.7.8-0.f18.bob.src.rpm
xvba-video-0.7.8-0.f18.bob.src.rpm
Since i don't (and don't want) to have a web server, i can provide this
only by email. Binaries too, if you wish.

is there a way to play swf files (version > 9) in Fedora?
by "Germán A. Racca"
Hi list!
Not that I'm a fan of gaming, but I discovered the web site y8.com by
chance and I liked the games, and they even offer a download option.
The games are in swf format, and even having gnash installed, not all of
the games I downloaded are working. Reading the info for gnash I can see
that "Gnash is capable of reading up to SWF v9...". Taking a look at the
files I downloaded:
$ file *.swf
AmericanRacing.swf: Macromedia Flash data (compressed),
version 14
coasterracer2.swf: Macromedia Flash data (compressed),
version 10
Formula Racer 2012_May_4th_2012.swf: Macromedia Flash data (compressed),
version 10
virtual_drums.swf: Macromedia Flash data (compressed),
version 6
In fact, the only one that plays nicely is virtual_drums.swf. Question
is: how can I play the other files whose versions are > 9 in Fedora? All
that I found in Google refers to Adobe Player, but the download links
are for the flash plugin for the web browser.
Any help is appreciated.
Germán.

Runlevel 3 after fedup
by ellis＠spinics.net
After upgrade from 17 to 18 with fedup and installing all the updates I was
unable to login as any user other than root. When I tried I was greeted with
the message: "System is booting up".
After beating my head against the wall I finally tried booting to runlevel
5 instead of 3. That fixed the issue. But booting to runlevel 3 and switching
to 5 doesn't work.
Possibly a problem with systemd?

Monitor turns off on normal boot
by Anthony Papillion
Hello Everyone,
I'm having trouble getting Fedora (or Ubuntu or Windows) to do a
normal boot.
When I try to boot Windows or Ubuntu in normal mode, it gets to a
certain point then the monitor turns off and nothing more happens. I
finally got Fedora 14 to work by selecting basic video. But when I
upgraded to 17, same thing happened: got to a point then the monitor
turned off.
Can anyone help me? I'd thought it might be a video driver issue but
on three separate is installations?
I'm at my wits end!
Thanks,
Anthony
