Gang,
I running this line as root " rpm http://apt.kspei.com fedora/3/i386 kspei", any idea why I have this results:
Because you need to pass an argument to rpm and specify an actual package, not a directory. For instance (the following should all be one command):
rpm -i http://apt.kspei.com/fedora/3/i386/RPMS.kspei/kspei-admin-1.3-1.noarch.rpm

Hi, people
Has anyone successfully installed VMware 5 WITH networking on kernel 2.6.12? I had it working flawlessly on many releases of kernel 2.6.11, but can't get it to work on 2.6.12. I've tried on FC3 and FC4 with the same results. After running vmware-config.pl, vmnet0 (bridged) won't start. After that, any attempt to re-run vmware-config.pl causes it to freeze. If I reboot the computer, running vmware displays a message stating it has not been configured for the running kernel and if I run vmware-config.pl again, I'm back to the beginning (vmnet0 won't start). If I do not install networking support when running vmware-config.pl, vmware works ok (without any kind of networking, of course).
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Marcelo

Hi Marcelo ;
I just got it working today on FC3 running kernel 2.6.12-1.1372_FC3. Here's what I did:
1) I removed all remnants of Vmware (rpm -e VMwareWorkstation-5.0.0-13124) 2) I installed the vmware v5 rpm (rpm -ihv VMwareWorkstation-5.0.0-13124) 3) I downloaded the latest any-any patch from http://ftp.cvut.cz/vmware/ (download the vmware-any-any-update93.tar.gz file) 4) I untar'd the file (tar -xzvf vmware-any-any-update93.tar.gz) 5) Next I ran the patch (./vmware-any-any-update93/runme.pl) When I was prompted if I want the script to start the /usr/bin/vmware-config.pl script for me I choose NO because the first run through I said yes and it caused lots of problems starting with a hung process and ending with removing vmware and starting over. 6) then I ran /usr/bin/vmware-config.pl from the command line myself 7) I choose to allow bridget networking to eth0, no NAT networking and no host only networking.
It works fine. The only bit I wish I could make work is networking via my wireless connection (eth1). If anyone knows how to do this I would be grateful for any advice....
Hope this helps...

Hi, all
I have almost 400 true type fonts that I've been using for years, since when I was a Windows user. I've been installed them successfully in every Linux distribution I've installed so far, including FC3. However, when I install them on FC4 (using KDE Control Center), no application (except OpenOffice) "sees" the fonts. OpenOffice sees them, but they display horribly, kind of low resolution, and the characters are so close from each other that they overlap. Firefox does'nt see the fonts, nor any other application. I tried to remove them and install manually (copied them to a directory, included it on X fonts path using chkfontpath, run fc-cache, ttmkfdir and mkfontdir, restarted xfs). No difference. For last, I've downloaded a RPM package with MS true type core fonts and tried to install it. Right after the installation, everything seemed ok, although I don't know what the rpm did that I didn't. However, after the first reboot, the same things happens: no application sees the fonts, except OpenOffice, in which they display wrong. If I install the fonts directly in OpenOffice (copying or linking them into oodir/share/fonts/truetype), they display ok in OOo, but obviously are not available for other applications. Anybody knows what may be happening?
Thanks,
Marcelo

Have a look at the file /etc/fonts/fonts.conf. There are the system wide directories which are searched for fonts. It should say something like ... <dir>/usr/share/fonts</dir> <dir>/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1</dir> <dir>/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/OTF</dir> <dir>~/.fonts</dir> ... So, just drop your fonts inside one of these directories and run fc-cache inside it. Make also sure that your fonts have the right permissions (readable by all users). The command fc-list should list your new fonts then.

Hi, Kevin. Thanks for the step-by-step, I'll try it tonight and post the results tomorrow. About your question, I did not see an easy way to configure this on the Linux version of VMware. The Windows version have an option to select the interface to bind to vmnet0, but the Linux version do not. However, maybe you can edit /etc/modprobe.conf and switch the aliases of the two boards, making the wireless one to be eth0. vmware-config.pl always bridges vmnet0 to eth0, so it might work.
Thanks,
Marcelo

AFAIK, bridged networking over wireless is not supported on Linux hosts. (It wasn't before, and I haven't seen anything to indicate that things have changed.) NAT networking works fine over wireless.
Strange. I'm installed using the .run file from nvidia and it works well.
If you are running a 32 x86, go here: http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_1.0-7667.html.
I just followed there directions and it worked.
I checked the install by running glxgears.
I believe their directions tell you to reboot, but you don't have to. just use telinit to exit GDM and restart it. I think telinit 3 exits and telinit 5 starts it again, but I might have that backwards. (not at my fedora box right now.)

ftp://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-7667/README.txt "Below are the legacy GPUs that are no longer supported in the unified driver. These GPUs will continue to be maintained through the special legacy NVIDIA GPU driver releases."
NVIDIA chip name Device PCI ID ------------------------------- ------------------------------- RIVA TNT 0x0020 RIVA TNT2/TNT2 Pro 0x0028 RIVA TNT2 Ultra 0x0029 Vanta/Vanta LT 0x002C
So at least the result with the old Riva TNT2 could be explainable.
