Completely dissatisfied with Fedora -- Please Read
by Joshua Senic 17 Jan '10

17 Jan '10

I downloaded Fedora 12 KDE from the download page, and installed it to a 2 GB USB via the Fedora LiveUSB app. When loading the application, I received a fatal error, reading that it was "sleeping permanently." Then, I download Linux Live USB (www.linuxliveusb.com) and loaded Fedora 12 KDE onto a USB from there. When I installed it, the Fedora completely took over my hard drive. I am not a novice -- I have installed Linux OS's as dual boot on several computers before, and I know that I did the installation correctly. After the installation, the Fedora wiped the NTFS partition for Windows XP right off the drive. It has been hell getting my computer back to working condition with Windows XP. I guarantee I will not use Fedora again due to the troubles I've had with trying to install the OS. Regards, Josh Senic

CHECKSUM for i686 F12
by James Butler 14 Jan '10

14 Jan '10

Hello, There is no CHECKSUM file available for the F12 i686 LiveCD download, or at least none is available via any link on any of the "download" or "verify" pages, and a search for same turns up way too much junk to be able to find the actual CHECKSUM file that I need. Further, I see there is a CHECKSUM available for the i386-DVD.iso file but none for the CDs, at least I am assuming that to be the case, because there is only one CHECKSUM in the repository (/fedora/releases/12/Fedora/i386/iso), and not one for each of the .iso files, as there should be. Please upload some CHECKSUMs for the CD .iso files, or make the links to same much more obvious, as it is currently impossible to verify any of the CD .iso files that I have just mentioned without them, and previous attempts at downloading and installing from CDs made from those .iso files have issues with some of the files included in them. Note that the instructions for verifying the .iso downloads (and any similar instructions for any downloaded file of any type from anywhere) require a CHECKSUM file from Fedora (or whomever the originator of the file is). Thanks. James Butler

Introductions from nullsys
by Carl Walker 12 Jan '10

12 Jan '10

Hello all, As per the Join page request for the Web Design Project, I wish to provide some basic introductory information about myself in hopes that you gain enough knowledge about myself to consider me as an application for the Webdesign group. Over the past few days some of you may of seen me on IRC as 'nullsys'. I wish to thank you all for your help, support and warm welcomes. I'll try to keep this brief for you all. I am 26 years old, studying and working in the UK. I have been involved in web design, administration duties and general ICT for roughly 10 years now and I have been studying at university for the past 3-4 years, hopefully aiming for my masters in ICT fields. Previous jobs have included: Web design and development for several companies and private individuals. Security consultation and administration for Linux and Windows networks. Web analyst for a major IT company. This involved analysing search query results and matching them against recommended websites. And of course all the usual technology related jobs in between. Web Design/IT Interests and experiences include: HTML, CSS, XML, XSLT, PHP, MySQL, ASP.NET (briefly), C++, C# (briefly) Javascript, JQuery, Adobe Products (Photoshop etc), 3ds Max and a brief stint in SQS/SQF. On a side note I'm also interested in many styles of books, music, NLP, gaming and I have also had the opportunity to play in several bands as a guitarist. If anyone wishes to know any more info, please feel free to contact me. Thank you for your time, Carl Walker Nullsys. Wiki: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Nullsys PS: I have also applied as ambassador for the project and have had one successful mentor application from 'biertie'.

i686?
by Alec Cox 11 Jan '10

11 Jan '10

Re page http://fedoraproject.org/en/get-fedora-all the Live Media boxes show i686 where I was expecting i386 as for full distribution. Is this a mistype or have I missed a change in chip designation. Alec Cox

[Fedora Infrastructure] #1227: Hosting footer

#1227: Hosting footer -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Reporter: mmcgrath | Owner: webmaster Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Fedora 11 Component: Webmaster | Version: Production Severity: Normal | Keywords: -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- This is something we've talked about many times but it's not quite implemented yet. I'd like to put footers at the bottom of our pages that reference a hosting provider. For an example see: http://us.pycon.org/2009/conference/schedule/event/21/ We can't build it directly into the templates because different places have different hosting. What I'd like to do is have our templates import a js script (or something). Then we can deploy a custom js script to each host that has the relevant information. If you're interested put a proof of concept together on your fedorapeople page. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/1227> Fedora Infrastructure <http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure> Fedora Infrastructure Project for Bugs, feature requests and access to our source code.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I was about to send an invite to a friend with the 'invite' link next to the Ambassador group block on the My Account page, but then I noticed that it is sending it from my wm161(a)wm161.net account. Shouldn't it be sending it from my fedoraproject.org email? Looks more professional that way I think. - -- Trever Fischer (tdfischer) Fedora Ambassador, KDE Hacker http://wm161.net GPG: C40F2998 hkp://wwwkeys.pgp.net -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAksn9hcACgkQNg53/sQPKZiNCACghcFQ+ugFQD51if4rPZHio1Z3 TbYAnjmL4TVC1ZDGq6I8Vu1VtQ7QXoIG =vY1x -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

broken links on https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing page
by Bake Timmons 06 Jan '10

06 Jan '10

Hi, 1. The following link is on the EMC2 license is broken: http://www-c.inria.fr/gamma/cdrom/www/emc2/copyright.htm It seems that a replacement is: http://pauillac.inria.fr/cdrom_a_graver/www/emc2/copyright.htm 2. Also this is broken for Scilab: http://www.scilab.org/legal/license.html Current versions of Scilab now use a free license (CeCILL) and now link to that. One page containing the old Scilab license text is: http://www.worldlii.org/int/other/PubRL/2009/51.html 3. This is broken for the GLX Public License: http://www.sgi.com/products/software/opensource/glx/license.html One page that contains this license text (along with text of some other licenses) is: http://www.x.org/archive/X11R6.8.0/doc/LICENSE3.html Of course, another way to deal with the broken links is use as you have before old URLS stored by archive.org Thanks, Bake

Package bug lists
by Christopher Beland 06 Jan '10

06 Jan '10

I use lists such as: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/packages/bugs/gdm to do bug triage, and they are much handier than doing searches in Bugzilla. Since we have switched to using the Triaged keyword instead of the ASSIGNED status to indicate triage has been completed for a particular bug, would it be possible to update this table to show triage status? It would also be tremendously useful to show if NEEDINFO is set, because when triaging I skip those bugs. Thanks!

problem with https://fedoraproject.org/en/verify
by Richard Z 01 Jan '10

01 Jan '10

Hi, sorry to use this contact address, was not sure where else to direct this. The procedure in this page has one significant stumbling point - the *-CHECKSUM file is a gzipped file - at least when it is downloaded using wget. ( I have tested it with https://fedoraproject.org/static/checksums/Fedora-12-i386-CHECKSUM ) Obviously it needs to unzipped - which is not quickly obvious for a bunch of reasons, eg it has no ".gz" suffix and many editors/viewers will unzip it automatically so the unsuspecting user is left scratching his head why it doesnt work when the file looks perfectly ok when viewed with "less" The result are rather cryptic error messages like # gpg --verify *-CHECKSUM gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found. gpg: the signature could not be verified. Please remember that the signature file (.sig or .asc) should be the first file given on the command line. Regards Richard
