f19 hopeless in a KVM with VNC display
by Tom Horsley
I just installed a couple of virtual fedora 19 machines
(32 and 64 bit), and I get a GDM login screen, click my
user and type my password, and gnome-shell starts using
94% of the CPU.
Possibly it is trying to use the software GL to render
the screen, but it will clearly never finish in a reasonable
amount of it. I logged in about 10 minutes ago and
I still have the remains of the login screen, no
gnome-shell rendered yet.

If the media is ok, as it's says,
why complain of formatting errors.
Didn't see that on the others.

F18/F19 VPN issues with NetworkManager
by Fedora User
Hello!
I was using Fedora 17 x86_64 with NetworkManager vpnc and reinstalled
Fedora 19. NM + vpnc does not seem to work anymore and here are the logs
from syslog
"Jul 3 21:11:44 localhost NetworkManager[423]: <info> Starting VPN service
'vpnc'...
Jul 3 21:11:44 localhost NetworkManager[423]: <info> VPN service 'vpnc'
started (org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.vpnc), PID 2643
Jul 3 21:11:44 localhost NetworkManager[423]: <info> VPN service 'vpnc'
appeared; activating connections
Jul 3 21:11:51 localhost NetworkManager[423]: <info> VPN plugin state
changed: starting (3)
Jul 3 21:11:51 localhost NetworkManager[423]: <info> VPN connection
'InMobi' (Connect) reply received.
Jul 3 21:11:51 localhost NetworkManager[423]: <warn>
/sys/devices/virtual/net/tun0: couldn't determine device driver; ignoring...
Jul 3 21:11:51 localhost avahi-daemon[375]: Withdrawing workstation
service for tun0"
I don't see tun0 interface created when i run ifcfg even though the module
is loaded. I see the same behavior with F18 as well. I could share the
vpnc debug report if it helps diagnose and also open a bug as needed.
Is there anything else I'm missing?
Thanks in advance,
Steve

Alt F2 r
by Patrick Dupre
Hello,
After Alt F2 r, the gnome-terminal windows do not show up in the expected
workspaces but in the workspace used to make the alt F2 r.
This behavior is not always but usually after a few of the mentioned command.
Am I the only person facing this glitch?
Thank.

Minimal environment doesn't exist error in yum - F19
by Mark Haney
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Just updated one system to Fedora 19 using fedora-upgrade (which I saw
on Paul Mellors blog and decided to try, it works great) but I"m
seeing a weird error in yum now. When I do a yum update this is what
I get:
> [markh@augustus ffmpeg]$ sudo yum update Loaded plugins: langpacks,
> refresh-packagekit adobe-linux-x86_64

I'm not sure if this is a real problem, or if it can be ignored. This
is obviously new to F19, but Groups like that have been common for a
long time. What exactly does this do when updating packages? And how
can I get rid of it or fix it?

lost cursor.
by William Mattison
(Fedora-18; 64-bit; all desktops)
I have two 27-inch monitors on my system. Occasionally, I "lose" the cursor. (ok, who's that that I hear snickering out there?!) I recall years ago (two jobs ago) on the Unix system at work, we had a tool called "xeyes" which amounted to a pair of eyes which were always displayed on the monitor and always "followed" the cursor. It was great. Just what I need now! But when I launch the "Software" tool on my system and look for xeyes, it doesn't find it. How do I get xeyes for my 64-bit Fedora-18 system?
thanks,
Bill.

Installing Fedora 19
by Roger
I'm just now installing Fedora 19 on a Dell1520 laptop
I have never seen anything install so fast, it's brilliant as a fresh
install.
Everything seems very much faster so I can't wait to get my apps working
and put it to work
