Re: Fedora 8 and 9 updates status

Time for another update on the F8 and F9 updates status. Our testing with the live update content as gone well. We identified a couple issues with the current PackageKit and thanks to Richard Hughes we'll have an updated PackageKit to offer as well as an updated fedora-release package for our users. The combination of the two (or just the fedora-release package for you non-packagekit users) will be all that you will need in order to gain access to our newly signed and relocated updates. We're in the final stages of testing a few corner cases, and preparing the official builds of fedora-release, PackageKit, gnome-packagekit, and unique (needed as a new dep for gnome-packagekit). All existing updates in the old update locations will be purged, and just these updates will be put in their place, signed with our old key. Once you've updated to these packages, the next update attempt will point you to our new locations with our new keys and you should be able to process any further pending updates. You'll be prompted to import the new key along the way. A wiki page has been created that covers some of this, https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Enabling_new_signing_key and will be updated throughout the day as we finish the above listed tasks. A more formal announcement along with links to the official FAQ will be published to same lists this mail is going out to, and likely picked up by various news sites.

As long as we keep the symlinks in icon themes, but change the gtk #definitions, the old applications would still work and the newly rebuilt ones would follow icon-naming-spec more closely - which would eventually (after some years probably) practically remove the need for those symlinks. But I am in no position to tell gtk devs what they should do, so if you disagree, just ignore my comment, I was merely interested to know if there are any such plans :) Martin signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list

[PATCH] Perforce support for koji
The powers that be require us to use Perforce. Thus, the patch. A few things to note about it: * Our P4 server is running on a non-standard port and thus needs to be specified. scm_tuple is now created via rsplit instead. Allows SCM port to be specified. i.e. This now works: allowed_scms=perforcetx.bluecoat.com:1999:/koji/sandbox/paul.schroeder/skeletor * P4 *requires* a stinkin' password. So I added password support to _parse_url. The user part of the SCM url can now be user:password. Still works minus the :password too. Let me know if there's a better/preferred way to support passwords. * P4 can only checkout into the static client root specified in the P4 client spec (PITA). Sooo.. After the module_checkout_cmd is executed, if sourcedir does not exist, we do a 'os.rename' of the checked out code into the proper task sourcedir. * A P4 SCM URL looks like: p4://user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/p4client/p4depot?path/to/module#changelist i.e. p4port==host And p4client is your P4 client spec that you've created.

Last week
Strange week last week, many of you noticed a bunch of nagios outages so I thought I'd send a roundup of what happened. 1) The big one was what seems to be a corrupt database table. For some reason running a vacuum on a table (which was only 66M large) was taking a long time and even after it would finish the disks would thrash for sometimes 10 minutes after. This caused outages of lots of our systems like the account system, to which other systems depend. The job was hourly so thats why it kept happening. We were able to reproduce this on another host and never quite figured out what was going on but a dump, drop, restore fixed the issue and so far we haven't had time to revisit what was going on, just that it hasn't happened since. 2) Strange network issues towards the end of the week. Seems our round time to server beach went up causing nagios to flag some hosts as dead. I've also not yet had time to look into this. The network seems and I don't think we're seeing any functional issues from it but it was different. 3) pkgdb's home page started taking longer to load causing our balancer to start flagging it dead causing it to throw 503's. We only recently moved it to haproxy so this could be a normal behavior that we just didn't see. I've moved response time of the front page up to 5 seconds from 2. -Mike ___ Fedora-infrastructure-list mailing list Fedora-infrastructure-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-infrastructure-list

While that work is still in progress, you can see that kernel-firmware is a separate package in rawhide already.

A few individual files in the package have different licenses. In some case it's GPLv2+ licensed, but some scripts have a separate short license which I also attach. I understand that I should ask here if 1) it is ok to package this program, and 2) what to use in the License tag value.

okular printing problem
Hi All, I have a problem printing pdf-files using okular OS : F9 (both 32 and 64 bit) program : okular printer type : HP ColorLaserJet 4650dn When I select print from okular and try to print in Landscape mode it actualy prints in Portrait mode with the correct scaling of the landscape mode (so part of the print falls off the paper) When I select print from okular and try to print in Portrait mode it actualy prints in Landscape mode with the correct scaling of the Portrait mode (so part it fills only part of the width of the paper) - Print preview shows the print as expected: so no problem here - Printing from OpenOffice gives no problems on the same machines and same printer Any idea what can be the problem?

Howto prevent F9 from mounting all mountable partitions
Hi, I think this question has been discussed very often in the past times, but I don't find a correspondent web link. My question: When logging in into Gnome or KDE, all mountable partions are mounted (even windows partitions), even if there is no correspondent entry in /etc/fstab. This only happens when booting into initmode 5 and logging in by Gnome/KDE. It does not happen when booting into initmode 3 and login in into some console. Somebody can help? All comments are appreciated.

Re: Fedora on old hardware?
I installed F9 on a Pentium II MMX, 366MHz. I could not make it install over the Network, because it has PCMCIA only connection to Ethernet, and I did not find the correct module for the PCMCIA card or the correct module was ill-configured for that installation. then I tried from the live cd: the live cd run and installed, and everything works close to fine. it's not exactly a shot, but better than nothing. I earlier tried to install F8 on a K2, but this really did not work. I then installed openBSD on the K2, and it worked like a charm. suomi Ralf Corsepius wrote: On Sun, 2008-09-07 at 22:40 -0400, fred smith wrote: On Sun, Sep 07, 2008 at 07:35:29PM -0700, Konstantin Svist wrote: I have an old laptop (AMD K6 400MHz) that refuses to install Fedora 8.

The point of this (for me) is that the email remains on helen.

linksys wmp54gs on fc9 64 bit
Has anyone bin able to get Linksys Wireless-G PCI Adapter wmp54gs to work on 64 bit Fedora Core 9? If so, I would be grateful to learn how you have done it. I found a lot of instructions and broken links for 64 bit drivers but so far nothing works. I had no problem with 32 bit FC8 and ndiswrapper. But 64 bit FC9 is giving me headaches.

Backup Server RAID Suggestions - Resend

I would like to add some type of raid storage box to it with about 5 1TB drives using raid 5 unless there is something better.

I want to use the system for photography work flow and backing up a few Windows systems. My questions are as follows: 1. What is an inexpensive external RAID storage box to go with? Really depends on hardware or software RAID and they very greatly. There are also IDE vs SCSI issues and the newer SATA. 2. What is a good inexpensive RAID controller to go with? I'd suggest going with Adaptec. But only because I've used them before. 3. S/W RAID vs HW RAID? Which is the most reliable way to go? HW RAID would be more reliable; but, SW RAID more flexible. You have to determine your specific requirements. 4. Are there ways to do full backups of windows boxes and restore a complete bootable drive from the Linux box? Depends, but this isn't really the job for the RAID storage. RAID storage provides redundant backups for the system supplying the RAID storage and not usually for remote systems. This is for other technology like imaging software and the like. 5. What is the largest file system Fedora 9 can support? Depends on 64-bit vs 32-bit processors. 6. Are there performance hits for large file systems? Yes, but like everything you have to weight the good and bad and determine your needs. If keeping backups is really important, performance should be last on your scale... and if performance is an issue, it should be first on your scale... but usually cost goes up with performance these days.

I will be using a de-branded HP Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core with 2GB RAM and two 250GB drives mirrored for the OS stuff and a few apps. Depending on your usage case (random/sequential) I'd consider adding additional memory. I would like to add some type of raid storage box to it with about 5 1TB drives using raid 5 unless there is something better. I'd consider switching the 1TB drives with smaller one. IME big drives are (far) less reliable than small ones. I want to use the system for photography work flow and backing up a few Windows systems. My questions are as follows: 1. What is an inexpensive external RAID storage box to go with? If you're talking about 5-8 drives, a big tower case will do. Any particular reason why your rather use an external case? (With an additional power supply?) 2. What is a good inexpensive RAID controller to go with? 3ware has a very good SATA raid controller. Same goes for LSI. 3. S/W RAID vs HW RAID? Which is the most reliable way to go? Hardware RAIDs are easier to setup and maintain, but cannot be transferred from one machine to the other. Expensive hardware RAID controllers add additional battery back cache that can improve the performance and reliability in case of power outage. Software RAIDs are somewhat harder to manage, but can be moved from one machine to the other with no additional effort. Plus, software RAID has build in RAID6 support. (In case you need better reliability.) 4. Are there ways to do full backups of windows boxes and restore a complete bootable drive from the Linux box? Previous versions of Norton Ghost had no problems connecting to my samba shares. 5. What is the largest file system Fedora 9 can support? ext3 is more than enough. (2TB file, 8TB FS) 6. Are there performance hits for large file systems? I'm using 1TB FS without a problem. Thanks so much in advance! Mike In general, I'd consider using ~11x500GB in a software RAID6 and put the OS on the same RAID. (10+1 setup) A CoolerMaster Stacker STC-101 case is more than capable of hosting 11 3.5 drives. - Gilboa -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines

External WUXGA Samsung monitor is forcing my laptop to VGA resolution.
To make a long story short, I have an aging Dell Inspiron 9200 with a full WUXGA (1920x1200) display happily running F7. I hooked it via VGA to a WUXGA Samsung (1920x1200) monitor, hoping to see exactly the same content. Instead, hooking up to the monitor forced the laptop back to 640x480 mode. If I disconnect the monitor, everything is fine and I get full WUXGA on the laptop. Connect it up again, and lo-res VGA on both laptop and monitor. Argh. I'm throwing F9 on the laptop just for fun to see if it has better display configuration, but is there a way around this? How does connecting the monitor somehow force the laptop into 640x480 mode?

RE: Backup Server RAID Suggestions - Resend
Thank you Gilboa and James! Here's a little more information. Someone gave me the de-branded HP Athlon 64 X2 PC. So I have a free PC I'd like to turn into a NAS server. This doesn't have to be pretty just functional and semi-cheap. Since there isn't room in the PC case for the drives, let alone cooling and power, I figured some external case/RAID storage box might do the trick. This thing doesn't need to be the fastest on the planet just reliable and as inexpensive as possible. I need the money for lenses for the cameras. ;o) I've been looking at enclosures etc at www.pc-pitstop.com that use a port multiplier. These seem reasonable.

Re: Backup Server RAID Suggestions - Resend
Mike McMullen wrote: Thank you Gilboa and James! Here's a little more information. Someone gave me the de-branded HP Athlon 64 X2 PC. So I have a free PC I'd like to turn into a NAS server. This doesn't have to be pretty just functional and semi-cheap. Since there isn't room in the PC case for the drives, let alone cooling and power, I figured some external case/RAID storage box might do the trick. This thing doesn't need to be the fastest on the planet just reliable and as inexpensive as possible. I need the money for lenses for the cameras. ;o) I've been looking at enclosures etc at www.pc-pitstop.com that use a port multiplier. These seem reasonable. Anyone know anything about port multipliers? Am I missing something big here? I'm definitely not an expert on raid storage. I've always liked the simplicity of software RAID1. You lose some disk capacity (pretty cheap these days) compared to RAID5 and if you use a simple scheme keeping the disks independent you will have to deal with multiple mount points. In return, you get the ability to easily recover the data from any single disk and to make a backup by swapping out one of the mirrors and sync'ing to a new one. Plus, you don't have to worry about matching up with the old controller if you want to move a disk or a set. -- Les Mikesell [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
