Good Morning Fedora Gurus,
I have just upgraded my FC4 system with a fresh install of FC5 and all
is good except that I receive a strange message about my sound card,
Sound Blaster 16. The card is detected but the error says that I am
missing some "streams" files that are needed to play sounds.
Has anyone else see this behavior? Are these codec's or what?
Best Wishes
Stan Skidmore

Hi,
I am having hard time trying to connect a device designed as save-disk
for digital cameras to a FC3/FC4 machines. The device is marked USB 2.0
High Speed and carries also memory card reader (3 slots).
When I connect it to the PC, I get:
usb 3-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 8 usb 3-2:
not running at top speed; connect to a high speed hub scsi10 : SCSI
emulation for USB Mass Storage devices
usb-storage: device found at 8
usb-storage: waiting for device to settle before scanning
Vendor: DCB Model: HS-HD Rev: 2.23
Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 00
SCSI device sdc: 156301488 512-byte hdwr sectors (80026 MB)
sdc: assuming drive cache: write through SCSI device sdc: 156301488
512-byte hdwr sectors (80026 MB)
sdc: assuming drive cache: write through
sdc: sdc1
Attached scsi disk sdc at scsi10, channel 0, id 0, lun 0
Vendor: DCB Model: HS-CF Rev: 2.23
Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 00
Attached scsi removable disk sdd at scsi10, channel 0, id 0, lun 1 ...
(similar for other memory card slots, just different lun numbers)
So, it works as "full speed" only, with a rate of 1MB/s which is not
acceptable for 80GB disk.
At first I though the first two lines mean that the USB port used is not
capable of High Speed. But then I connected to the VERY SAME port
another device - memory card reader (no disk) and got:
usb 1-4: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 12
scsi9 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices
usb-storage: device found at 12
usb-storage: waiting for device to settle before scanning
Vendor: SMSC Model: USB 2 HS-CF Rev: 2.16
Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 00
SCSI device sdc: 4001760 512-byte hdwr sectors (2049 MB) ... (other
slots) ...
So there are two problems:
1. Why does the device not work at 480 Mbps,
2. What do all these USB numbers mean: 1-4, 3-2?
I guessed one of those should should somehow point to the USB port used
but it seems it does not. No single number repeats although the cable
was plugged into the same port.
any ideas, explanations?
regards, Michal.

I tried the gui, and that did work as I wanted it, so the install is
done, and nearly everything is installed. SElinux is turned off, as
was iptables after I'd fixed all the other stuff re the labels by
taking them back out of the copy of fstab on hdb. So labels are no
longer a concern since theres none in the hda copy of fstab either.
I am already behind a more than adequate firewall.
3 immediate problems:
1) networking is so slow it took it about 6 hours to do the yum update
once I'd gotten it booted. Those 69 packages shouldn't have taken more
than 10 minutes or so on a 256/1.5 dsl connection. Is there a fix for
that other than reverting to my homemade 2.6.16.1? None of my homemade
kernels has ever exhibited network performance like that. Maybe it
didn't have the forcedeth driver available?
2) evolution, although it has all the data filled in properly, cannot
login and get my email from incoming.verizon.net. fetchmail had no
problems once I'd rebooted to FC2. I got the feeling it wasn't using
the pop3 protocol correctly, but then neither does verizon as the login
and password are exchanged in the clear.
3) where do I edit, and what, to make it use kde instead of gnome?
The older switchdesk utility wasn't fully installed for some reason, and
doesn't seem to be available via yum.

Cheers, Gene
People having trouble with vz bouncing email to me should add the word
'online' between the 'verizon', and the dot which bypasses vz's
stupid bounce rules. I do use spamassassin too. :-)

I guess it's a throw out the baby with the bathwater thing.
What you call 'break your system' really is nothing more than SELinux
blocking attempts by programs to accomplish tasks which they would have
no problem doing if SELinux were set to 'off' or at least 'permissive'
mode. That seems to be an over reaction.
Yes, it does require some effort on the user part to remove the SELinux
'block'
Yes, life is simpler for a user to simply set SELinux to 'off' or
'permissive'
I would submit that Microsoft Windows offers a simpler environment for
the user where security is less. If by extension, the goal is to provide
an easier Linux system for the user to use, why wouldn't he just log in
as root? It sure would make things easier for udev if users logged in as
root. Why quit there? Why not simply do '/sbin/service iptables stop' ?
The real problem that I see with SELinux is the use of language tokens
which aren't natural language which on the surface makes it appear
overly complex.

This is my updated modprobe.conf.
I still do not understand why the sound card doesn't work at
boot-time, but if I issue modprobe snd-sbawe it works immediately.
Shall I had this line to some rc file??
# Note: for use under 2.4, changes must also be made to modules.conf!
alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc
alias usb-controller uhci-hcd
options snd-sbawe isapnp=1
install snd-sbawe /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd-sbawe &&
/usr/sbin/alsactl restore >/dev/null 2>&1 || :
remove snd-sbawe { /usr/sbin/alsactl store >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; };
/sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-sbawe
#Turn off IPv6

And add one more.
4) Since when is it illegal to have a seperate root partition? DD
forced me to make root a directory on /, and I've never run that way in
8 years. I'll bruteforce it because the partition is there, without a
label since DD wouldn't let me use it, IF there is no good reason for
changing to a dir on / in the first place.

IOW, you probably had permissions set that would allow writing by users
that
should not write to that directory.

Subject: start_udev crashes diskless boot in FC5

Hi!
I am trying to boot FC5 disklessly. Things worked well in all FC
releases so far. In FC5, the start_udev script crashes the system.
This is because when udevd is started from within it, it makes the
network device vanish. What could be the possible reason for this? Is
there a way of rolling back to a working udevd/kernel? Is there some
major change in the FC5 architecture/boot process that I should know
of?
Thanks

OK, I thought it was purely a technical term.

Hello,
I know that there is a bug report on jumbled desktop icons upon
rebooting (especially with the home folder). Has this problem been
fixed yet? Has anyone else been affected by this problem?

Hi Jeffrey,
Same here.
It has not been fixed yet. I'm not sure if they are waiting for
upstream to fix it or the fix is too difficult.
