Nominations now open for December Fedora Elections
With one round of elections in the US out of the way, it's now time to turn our attention to more pressing matters - Fedora Election Season has begun. The following groups have elections in December 2008: * Fedora Project Board * Fedora Ambassadors Steering Committee (FAmSCo) * Fedora Engineering Steering Committee (FESCo) * Fedora Localization Steering Committee (FLSCo/Translators) Schedule * Nominations are open from 28 October through 3 December, 2008. * IRC Town Hall-style discussions with candidates for the various positions will be arranged for 4 December through 6 December. * The elections will take place 7 December through 20 December, 2008. Nominiations You may self-nominate. If you wish to nominate someone else, please consult with that person ahead of time. Wiki nomination pages [1] carry additional details about the nominee which the nominee is expected to write. Simply update the respective wiki page with your nomination information. In addition, I'm hoping the Fedora 11 schedule may permit us to vote on possible names for the Fedora 11 release. More details to follow on this. Please thoughtfully consider how you can best contribute to Fedora by serving on one of these important committees. The world is watching!

caching packages on koji builder
Hello, is it possible to somehow cache the packages that are going from koji hub to the builder to create a build root? There is no NFS connection between the builder and hub in s390's koji and so each build requires to download 100 MB via XMLRPC(?) and this is slow. Will squid help here?

Koji builders have never downloaded packages via XMLRPC. All downloading is done by mock/yum, via http (previously nfs). You could potentially use squid locally to cache downloaded packages.

All MB downloading is done by mock/yum, via http (previously nfs). Well, mock can cache all sorts of things these days. If there are multiple builders at one location then having a single squid cache for them all might be nice, but mock's caching would still help to avoid having to hit the network. Actually mock's caching doesn't really help us. It's all done per-buildroot, and since every build is run in a different buildroot, the caches would never be reused. For this reason Koji disables caching in the mock configs it writes out. A global (per-machine) rpm cache might be useful for reducing network bandwidth. However, because mock/yum would have to lock this global cache while interacting with it, it would become a bottleneck when running concurrent builds. The best approach currently is probably a local squid cache. -- Fedora-buildsys-list mailing list Fedora-buildsys-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-buildsys-list

Koji builders have never downloaded packages via XMLRPC. All downloading is done by mock/yum, via http (previously nfs). This behavior is controlled by kojid options. If you specify the 'topurl' option for kojid, then the mock configs it generates will use an http:// url to point to the repo. Otherwise it will use a file:// url (using the value of the 'topdir' option, which defaults to /mnt/koji). Also, the use of a file:// url doesn't have to mean nfs.

You could theoretically use another shared file system. So this is true, but misleading. The interaction of the topurl and pkgurl options in kojid is complicated. The topurl/topdir options determine how kojid will locate the repo. However, with the current code, the repodata will contain url references for the component rpms. That url is determined when the repo is generated. This happens during a createrepo task on a builder, and the pkgurl (not topurl) option is used. So.. - repodata location determined by topurl/topdir options - rpm location determined by pkgurl option on the builder that created the repo.

Some time over the last month of so my Gnome desktop has lost the ability to generate thumbnails of jpgs. I have all the options set; the maximum filesize for thumbnails is set to 10Mb, so that's not the issue. Bmp, gif and png files all show as thumbnails in Nautilus - but no jpgs do. Does anyone have an idea of what might have gone wrong?

Right, but I'm on a fully updated F9. I got the F10 libxcb package
updated/installed, and all seems to be well. kinda a bit hack-y to add to my
image/kickstart, but, if it works, it works, and I'll be rebuilding a F10
version as soon as its out I'm sure.
Thanks for the help!

Any one knows how can I resolve this problem? I too have had issues with Adobe Flash player. I have visited web sites that say that I am missing this. I've gone to the the Adobe web site and have followed their instructions but still find that the yum or rpm process has not properly updated FireFox. Per the Adobe web site, if I check the plug ins, I should see that Adobe Flash is include after following the install instructions. Fedora 9 believes that it has installed it. That could just be badly authored sites, but you'd need to give us some examples. A common reason that sites reckon you don't have something that you do have is that they do a stupid test via something *else*, then make wrong assumptions based on those results (e.g. use JavaScript to check something, or try to set a cookie, or look at the version of the browser that you're using and compare it with their short list).

Up until a day or so ago, I would have said add the Livna repo to your computer, and yum install akmod-nvidia (rebuilds itself after any new kernel installations), *OR* kmod-nvidia (requires updating with an updated kmod-nvidia RPM after any new kernel installations). But Livna has just merged into RPM fusion, and I'm not sure of the procedure for starting from scratch, now. I see no harm in installing the Livna repo RPM for Fedora 9, then doing yum update once or twice to let it sort itself out. Then yum install the nvidia RPM that you want. See: http://rpm.livna.org/rlowiki/. I'm sure it'd be a bit less messy to start off with the RPM Fusion repo, but I can't advise about doing something that I've not done, myself. The kmod-nvidia also had two variations, for 96xx series and legacy graphics cards.

Re: madwifi, F9, atheros 5413 cards
Just for someone's good, I am mentioning how the problem was solved.. what - atheros AR5413 (ar5006x) cards, madwifi livna rpms, adhoc mode, and configuration scripts I described at the start of the thread -- no traffic between peers No matter what configuration I set in ifcfg-ath0, network manager was changing something. It has to be related to authentication because the cards would send packets but would never receive anything form anyone. I had iwpriv authmode 1 and wpa 0 in my ifcfg-ath0. I had disabled wpa_supplicant and still no successful pings anywhere.. Because network manager was doing something fishy, I stopped it using ntsysv. I was able to connect cards in adhoc mode. They will not connect automatically as NM is not running, but I added a workaround in rc.local saying service network restart. I am still searching what NetworkManager was doing which blocked all incoming traffic in adhoc mode in madwifi. If found, will file a bug for sure. Its F9 too because same configuration worked fine on other distros. -phm On Tue, Oct 28, 2008 at 12:13 PM, PH mooraa [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thanks Martin for your reply. I tried the recent madwifi-hal but still the same problem. I think the problem is somewhere else because in dmesg it can be seen that ath_pci finds correct chipset and loads properly. There are no error there. I added a vista laptop (intel wireless card) to the adhoc network and ran wireshark on it. When I ping the laptop from F9 machine, I can see that ARP arrives at laptop and laptop replies it with its MAC. But then that reply is never accepted by F9 machines. Its like, it drops those packets somehow and Rx packets in ifconfig ath0 remains 0 (there are many Tx packets though). Is there some preset security in F9 blocking this?

from the Acer after copying a large file and losing the connection, before I
reset the router. I think I'm in trouble from the very first line. Couldn't
get connection secrets. All I get is the window asking me for my WPA2

was also online wirelessly when the lockup occurred, then the Intel laptop won't
go back online after I reset the router until the Intel laptop has been
rebooted.
The lockup doesn't affect the wired connections at all. I can still log into
the router using a wired connection and go to the configuration page to reset
it, and I can still surf the net and whatnot from a wired connection even
without resetting the router. The wireless connections to the laptops still
think they are present after the lockups occur. I don't get the disconnected
message and I still have four bars in the panel applet until I reset the

Remote buffer overflow bug in kernel
Dear all,
There has been a bug in the kernel with a buffer overflow in kernel,
\begin{quote}
A remote buffer overflow vulnerability in the Linux Kernel could be exploited
by attackers to execute code or cripple affected systems, according to a Gentoo
bug report that just became public.
The flaw could allow malicious hackers to launch arbitrary code with
kernel-level privileges. This could lead to complete system compromise or, in
some cases if an exploit fails, result in denial-of-service attacks.
\end{quote}
More at
http://blogs.zdnet.com/security/?p=2121
Q: Will we see an updated kernel soon that addresses this issue?
Is it a real bug or just on Gentoo?
Thanks,
Antonio

I then used scp to copy the large file from my desktop computer to the Acer. The first time I tried it, all 5mb transferred just fine.

Hi Steve, If you type in about:plugins in the address bar and hit enter, do you see Java in the list that shows up? No, there is no java in the list.

Alright, so that link looks good. We need to figure out now if that plugin exists, and if mozilla is expected to be seeing it. So, can you post the output of: ls -l /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.6.0-openjdk.x86_64/lib/amd64/gcjwebplugin.so and: ls -l /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins/*java* Deepak [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ ls -l /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.6.0-openjdk.x86_64/lib/amd64/gcjwebplugin.so ls: cannot access /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.6.0-openjdk.x86_64/lib/amd64/gcjwebplugin.so: No such file or directory So that looks like a problem: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ locate gcjwebplugin.so /usr/lib/gcj-4.3.0/libgcjwebplugin.so /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-openjdk-1.6.0.0.x86_64/jre/lib/amd64/gcjwebplugin.so /usr/lib64/gcj-4.3.0/libgcjwebplugin.so /usr/share/doc/libgcj-4.3.0/README.libgcjwebplugin.so This is odd, to have the JDK (/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-openjdk-1.6.0.0.x86_64/), you must have installed java-1.6.0-openjdk-devel.

I know I didn't install it manually. Therefore, you must have installed java-1.6.0-openjdk, which in turn provides the /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.6.0-openjdk.x86_64/ directory (java-1.6.0-openjdk-plugin provides /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.6.0-openjdk.x86_64/lib/amd64/gcjwebplugin.so).

Re: Remote buffer overflow bug in kernel
Original Message Subject: Remote buffer overflow bug in kernel From: Antonio Olivares [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: fedora-list@redhat.com Date: 11/05/2008 04:01 PM Dear all, There has been a bug in the kernel with a buffer overflow in kernel, The bug report[1] states that it is an ndiswrapper issue. Fedora AFAIK does not support ndiswrapper as it is a kernel module that is not upstream. Fedora shouldn't have anything to worry about. If you use ndiswrapper, you should check upstream or see if Gentoo has already done so, which I bet they have.
