There must be more to it than that.  My .face has read permissions for
everyone and gdm is not seeing it. I am running SElinux so I don't know if
that makes a difference?

Thanks, that does it.
That could be the last hook that keeps me from moving from fc6 -> f9.

Thanks again.

And, there IS a file somewhere (I cant find it at the moment) that causes
some files to be set to the 'users' ownership when a new user logs in, things
like console and X11 things.  This probably wants to go there if I could
remember where 'there' was.

Yes, thank you.  I had not enabled rpmfusion yet, but did so and got a bunch

You need to relax home directory permissions, so that it can.  Defaults
are rwx--, which only allows the user to use their own files.  Of
course there are risks with that, assess them for yourself, before doing
so.

You must have had a big fridge...  ;-)

I've got a thermal repair to take care of sometime soon, if I can take
the equipment out of service long enough to work on, and I'm not looking
forward to it.  It's big, heavy, awkward, and the boards concerned are
in difficult spots.  And definitely too big to put in the fridge!

Problem with dbus ??

[Amitakhya Phukan]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi all,

I am on F-10. Since a week, whenever I run a yum update or yum
install, I get the following error.

- --
ERROR:dbus.proxies:Introspect error on
:1.71:/org/freedesktop/PackageKit: dbus.exceptions.DBusException:

message bus configuration file (rejected message had interface
"org.freedesktop.DBus.Introspectable" member "Introspect" error name

- --

Any info on what might be causing this ? I must also tell that I
needed to install kdesdk-3.5.8-2.fc8.i386 and
kdesdk-libs-3.5.8-2.fc8.i386 as I need KBabel to work on localization.
To install them, I had to use rpm --force. Can that be a possible
reason for this trouble ? Apart from this, there are no "fc8" packages
installed by force. Any info on this error would be much appreciated.

Regards,
Amit.

Taiwan.  Where it is now 14:22 on Monday.

Now that I have awoken and had more coffee I'm certainTsaka san is
right.  Best to also find an rpm for libquicktime and install that.  
While doing a force may make it work you may end up making changes to
your system that you'll forget in the future.  For me that is any length
of time greater than a day.  :-)

 Is /usr/local/lib in your /etc/ld.so.conf?

 Have you run ldconfig after your changes?

 When the rpm can find a dependency I've not found --force --nodeps
 to be
 very helpful.

Yeah, at my age they don't always type what I tell them to either. :)  In 
fact, there have been times when I look at my message echoed from the server, 
and say to myself, did I actually type that?  Unforch, yes.  Thank heavens

So have I, but it can also screw the pooch if one isn't carefull.  I'll do 
that as a last resort.  In the meantime I'm playing with ogg, to see how file 
sizes and qualities compare.  I just tried the most smunch it can do, which 
cut about 1.8GB of .dv's (just over 10 minutes) into 98 megs but that was not 
viewable IMNSHO.  Fuggly even... So I'm trying the 2nd best quality now.  
With my upload bandwidth of about 35 kilobytes/Sec, the 164 meg mp4 file may 
be the best compromise.

Thanks.

I suppose my memory is probably defective

But I could swear I've installed various libraries using tarball
installs and they have been placed in /usr/local/lib and then recognized
perfectly fine by rpm.  Then again, it is Monday.

Is /usr/local/lib in your /etc/ld.so.conf?

Have you run ldconfig after your changes?

When the rpm can find a dependency I've not found --force --nodeps to be
very helpful.

  

Of course my fingers meant "can't find a dependency"...  :-)


rpm cannot find dependencies if the needed libraries are not registered
in rpm database, even if the libraries surely exist on your local disk.
(so, libraries installed by yourself by "configure -> make -> make install"
or so are not registered in rpm database and rpm simply ignores them)

running ldconfig does not help.

By the way mjpegtools is in rpmfusion [1] so just following [2]
and "yum install mjpegtools" will probably install mjpegtools
correctly.

What device driver for a Geode GX2

[Robert Moskowitz]

What is the name for the device driver for a AMD Geode GX2 video 'card'?

My FC9 install did not recognize the GX2 and said the system was 
headless.  Now I am without any xorg.conf.  I wanted to try 
'system-config-display --set-driver=...' to hopefully create a xorg.conf 
with the proper display driver.


And maybe all the other sections of xorg.conf will magically appear as well.

When the rpm can find a dependency I've not found --force --nodeps to be

Have you tried logging into the admin interface of your router and
seeing if there's an "update firmware" option? Often it just has a
browse button that will let you pick a local file and then it will
upload, update, and reboot.

Re: F10, VMware Server 2.0, and selinux

Sorry, Christopher, but I am not posting these replies because I'm a VMWare 
booster. As I stated, my solution may not work for all, but, you are simply 
misstating things, or not speaking clearly. 

To repeat, I am currently running VMWare Server version 1.0.7 build-108231; 
I've been running some version of VMWare server since it was first made 
available free, on several versions of Fedora including this machine, which is 
on F10; I have another machine right beside it that is running F9 and also 
runs VMWareServer; I do NOT disable selinux on any of my machines, ever, 
except for brief testing purposes; VMWare server has been running all day on 
this machine I'm typing on, and I have a WinXP vm running in it through which 
I run Outlook so I can connect to my company's Exchange 2008 mail server. 

I am merely posting this because I consider most of the information in this 
thread to be misleading, which could discourage others. It would be useful if 
you really care, to attempt to run VMWare server on your machine, post the 
errors you get, and get some help - to assert that it won't run because you 
can't get it to run, without explaining your procedures is not helpful.

Are you trying to read a music CD like a data CD? If so, it is not
going to work. If you want save the music tracks to the hard drive,
you need a ripping program. (Grip is one.)

If you are trying to play music CDs, then it depends on how you want
to do it. Linux supports playing both analog and digital streams.
Analog only supported if you have the audio cable between CD drive
and the sound card. Depending on the program you are using you may
need to download the digital CD plugin and/or select it to use the
digital stream.

There is a good chance that the key only works with specific machine
model. I remember something on the VirtualBox mailing list about
having to change some values in the virtual BIOS before you could
install or convert a real image to a virtual one.

I have even run into problems like this with OEM Windows 98SE disks
that would only install on Compaq machines.

Even moving the mouse inside a lyx document consumes a lot of CPU, with

You can have both livna and rpmfusion enabled; the only real package

I try not to be a whiner, but this is about the forth time in a few 
months that someone has released a package without ever testing it on 
a system with SElinux enabled. Some of those may be multiple reports, 
but at least three required policy changes.


You'll be happy to know that I've joined QA and I run systems with 
SELinux off and enforcing. There's at least one tester now that runs 
with SELinux. ;)


Yes, I use NFS (between SCO Unix, too) and use the machines daily. 
Hopefully I'll stop a lot of these bugs from hitting stable.


Thank you! And if it will be useful I can offer to install thing from 
updates-testing on an FC10 VM, which seem to find many if not all issues.


FIX!!

I installed selinix-policy-3.3.1-115.fc9.noarch.rpm (and targeted) and rpcbind 
started without issues.



As a workaround, I've (temporarily) put selinux in permissive mode but
installing selinux-policy-3.3.1-115.fc9.noarch.rpm seems safer. Wheres
did you find it? (Google is no help.) What do you mean by "and
targeted"?


yum --enablerepo=updates-testing-newkey upgrade selinux-*

That will install
  selinux-policy-3.3.1-115.fc9.noarch.rpm
  selinux-policy-targeted-3.3.1-115.fc9.noarch.rpm
and possibly, if you have it installed,
  selinux-policy-devel-3.3.1-115.fc9.noarch.rpm

Now your system works again for NFS.


This works fine for me except on the box running the 64 bit FC9. Then I
get:

Looks like the x86-64 repos are either messaged up (I see you have the out of 
date repomod.xml issue I see of x86-32bit), but it looks like you have both 
livna and rpmfusions stuff enabled by default, so you may have a total mishmash 
of conflicting packages from various places.


Can't help with that issue at all, works for x86 using Fedora repos.

'a few minutes'. that could be anywhere from 2 to 10. use a watch, not your
brain. a watch is a more reliable source of time measurement.

in 'short time' of wait / reboot, you could have enough heat build up for
expansion.

you can verify this with a digital ir thermometer. read temp at fan exhaust at
start and then when keys start working. remembering that what you are reading
will be cooler that what actual components are.

and, it could even be at level of an active component, which would heat up more
than what ambient air is.

if you want to check theory, you could try placing in refrigerator after keys
are working. wait about 30 mins, and leaving in refrigerator, try typing to see
if keys work.

next, is keeping unit warm. place in a cardboard box with a 75 watt or higher
lamp. after 30 mins, turn on and see if keys work. do keep laptop clear of
lamp so as not to cause any physical damage from heat of lamp.

keep in mind, both of these test could fail, but they did work years ago when
i did radio and tv services.

also, can you plug in an external keyboard?

never 'assume' when it applies to electronics. [or your self.]

you have to give consideration to basic physics that heat causes expansion
and cold causes contraction. when state of ambient changes from one to other,
physical size changes from one to other.

A clean install is how I got here. :-/

Well, "clean install" doesn't include completely recreating the LVM
group; I *really* don't want to do that.

The fact that the volumes are accessible in rescue mode suggests to me
that there's no fundamental compatibility problem; rather, I think
something's just not getting loaded at the right time.  I've filed this
bug on the issue:

  http://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=476337

I'm not sure if it should be against mkinitrd or kernel (or something
else); for the moment it's filed against the first.

I decided to try the upgrade route instead. I did a clean install of
Fedora 9; then did a yum upgrade to 10. Unfortunately, I have exactly
the same problem. But this time, there's a left over kernel from Fedora
9 that I can boot to. Booting to this kernel works; though it's not
without its (unrelated) side effects.

Do you use ldap or NIS as part of authentication, or anything else that uses

Where did you get these dependencies.
  

I don't remember step by step. As I remember now I did following things.

First, I removed PackageKit.
# rpm -e PackageKit gnome-packagekit PackageKit-glib \
PackageKit-udev-helper \
PackageKit-yum PackageKit-gstreamer-plugin \
PackageKit-yum-plugin

Then I installed package kit.
# yum install PackageKit
# yum update

Then I could not install gnome-packagekit. So I emailed here. And I 
downloaded package from here.

https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/F10/FEDORA-2008-11078

Couple days after I installed this package is updated from repository so 
I guess that this problem is fixed.


So you should just use yum.

Normally a bin file would be directly applied to a router -- i.e. no
extract required.  If the file were zipped or a tar file then an
appropriate extract would be applicable.  Normally the router
manufacturer supplies a program which applies the bin file to the
router.

Hopefully, this information assists you.

This is an extremely handy little program.
How about making it installable via yum?

Looks like I was mistaken. The ~/.face file is generated but gdm isn't

A couple of things before I have to go catch a plane...

First - This question was not an invitation to poop on VMware Server,
Workstation, or anyone else's virtualization products (except _maybe_
Hyper-V ). VMware happens to be the market leader for a reason,
and they have historically been reasonably good corporate citizens to
the world of Open Source.

I asked if anyone knew what the problem was and if it had been fixed. OK
- so it hasn't yet. I challenge that "shady RPMs" and other stuff is a
reason _not_ to investigate the issue. By the by - VMware Server 2.0
doesn't use an RPM based installer anymore (a HUGE MISTAKE if you ask
me), and the same issues exist. Since RHEL tends to trail Fedora, I'll
bet this gets fixed with the next major RHEL release, if not sooner
because many people do run VMware Server on Fedora.

As to how long this has gone on, it has since F8 and VMware Server
1.0.x. The only known work-around I am aware of is to disable selinux,
after which it runs impressively well. It compiles and runs on F9 and
F10 out of the box with no patches needed.

VMware Server 2.0 is no more complicated than 1.0.x by the way. In fact,
a TON of things are much nicer! But it is definitely different than
1.0.x in many important ways. Examples include the ability to control
everything about it via a browser, run a VM's console remotely using a
Firefox extension, and directly managing a variety of kinds of storage
on the fly. It is not, however, something I would recommend for a
workstation setup. Use VMware Workstation, VirtualBox, KVM, etc. for
that. VMware Server 2.0 is absolutely intended as a lightweight, server
based virtualization solution. Trying to make it do something else is
asking for issues.

Cheers,

Chris

Yes, somehow KPackageKit loves to forget its settings, I don't understand
why, really. See:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=475303

We patched it now to make it the internal default not to automatically
install anything (this was already the kde-settings default, but
KPackageKit forgot that too!), but that's really just taping over the
issue.

Do you have enough space on your panel to show the weather?  It takes up
another inch or so of space.
 
  

I have found, that removing the applet and re-adding the
applet to the panel, re-setting the locale, clicking on the
Weather tab: "F", changing it to something other, then
back to "F", seems to restore it.

Seems for some reason, Gnome-2 configuration files gets
messed up, which may mean that you may need to reset
the offending applet or application via the method mentioned
above.  Occassionally, I find that the "User Switcher", and the
"Clock" messes up as well and also needs to be reset.  Don't
forget to Session-Save as well after making the changes.



None of that makes any difference.

I've assumed we're talking about the gnome clock applet, which offers
weather information. But perhaps we're talking about the weather applet,
which is a different critter?

I've removed, re-added, reset everything in the clock applet and it simply
doesn't show any weather info. But the weather applet "works" in that it
shows a temperature--so far it isn't showing anything else...

And how does one "Session-Save", as you mention above? I don't see
anything on any gnome menu with a similar name...

Thanks for your advice!
  
I am talking about the clock applet that you see for date and time, that 
appears in
the panel (mine is on top).  When I log in, I get these Gnome dialog 
errors that
tells me the applet(s) are messed up.  So I close the dialog boxes, then 
remove
the offending applet(s) icons in the panel (as reported by the Gnome 
dialog boxes),
then proceed to add them back in.  If the Weather icon that appears to 
the left of the
date/time is not working, then I select the icon preferences, click the 
Location tab
to ensure that I have the correct location (mine was empty), then click 
the Weather

tab, drop-down the 'Temperature Unit', select 'Default', then close the
Preferences. Next, open the Preferences again, reset the Temperature 
Unit back
to 'F' (for my location, but you can choose whatever you want), close 
the preferences

box again.  Wait awhile, then it worked.

As for 'Save Session', I wanted to make sure that the new applets were 
saved in
Gnome-2 configuration files because I am not sure if it is 'committed' 
automatically

and this may not be required.

When I ran into these problems initially, I wanted to see if my account 
gnome-2
configuration were messed up, so as a test, I created a new temporary 
user - a
different account - to see if the Weather icon works, i.e. if by 
creating a new
account, new (virgin) gnome-2 configuration files are created properly. 
If the

Weather icon did not work, then I can assume that there was something wrong
with my gnome package on my system.

FWIW,
Dan

In any case, I removed all the modules I found in the above list,

Doing a su and trying again, I have audio both places, so it seems
that there is still a permission problem somewhere.

Can't find kernel-devel pkg for kernel 2.6.27.5-41.fc9.i686

[Nigel Henry]

I'm trying to upgrade the alsa driver. I have the headers for kernel 
2.6.27.5-41.fc9.i686, but had not installed the kernel-devel pkg for the same 
kernel. Now there are updates with a new kernel, and the kernel-devel pkg for 
the previous one no longer exists in the repo.

Anyone know where I can find kernel-devel pkg (i686) for the above kernel?

Thanks for any help.

Nigel.

GDM looks for a "~/.face" file for the picture by your name. I'm 
thinking that the About Me program should set this for you, and it 
currently does not. If you feel obligated, open a bug and request this 
enhancement.

Thanks Very Much for this pointer.

Is there an xul mailing list or users group for newbies?

kpackage settings do not stick

[Endy]

I'm having a problem with the kpackagekit settings.  I have set it to 
check for updates daily, not hourly, and not to ever automatically 
install updates.  Yet, it seems like after every time I use kpackagekit 
to run updates or install new packages, those settings get reset to the 
defaults: checking every hour, and automatically apply security updates.


Anyone else seeing the same behavior or have any suggestions?

(yes, i do click the 'apply' button after making my desired setting 
changes ;) )

Re: stable algorithm with complexity O(n)

[David Hláčik]

Thank you guys for help and support!  My homework is done and waiting
for grading.

Here it comes - bucket sort with time complexity O(n) == linear complexity

#! /usr/bin/python
def sort(numbers):
"sort n positive integers in O(n) provided that they are all from
interval [1, n^2]"
N = len(numbers) # get size of test numbers

buckets_mod = [[] for i in xrange(N)]
buckets_sorted = [[] for i in xrange(N+1)]

# group numbers to buckets (list of numbers) with common modulus
for n in numbers:
buckets_mod[n % N].append(n)
print "buckets_mod: %s" % buckets_mod

# check numbers in buckets
for l in buckets_mod:
for n in l:
# place number into bucket number grouped by result of 
division
buckets_sorted[n / N].append(n)
print "buckets_sorted: %s" % buckets_sorted

# search through sorted buckets and return list of sorted numbers
return [n for l in buckets_sorted for n in l]

I think g has good advice. He noticed there could be a heat issue here.

My suggestion is: replace the keyboard with a new one. It's cheap, just
search for a new one on Ebay.

After unmounting the individual drives, I currently activate the

dmraid -a yes  nvidia_gdedfbbj

Then mount the desired partitions. The device mapper device files for 
the partitions are in my /etc/fstab with an appropriate mounted path,

But mkinitrd seems to be where I'm having the problem. I just tried

Thanks, I should have thought of that.
I already had a 'rpm -qa | sort > rpms.list.f9' that I could have
looked at...

In any case, I removed all the modules I found in the above list, 
rebooted, and as ME, I have no audio in either aplay nor firefox.
Doing a su and trying again, I have audio both places, so it seems
that there is still a permission problem somewhere.

Here is the output from aplay

I'm just getting messages that the key is incorrect. I'll recheck it

Thanks for the heads up though. You might be right, I will follow up on

On the good side, my Fedora 10 VM is running with bridged networking. I
hope it can see things like USB and serial ports.

Folderview uses nothing advanced whatsoever, just plain old XRender 2D
acceleration which is supported by pretty much every driver in existence
(including but not limited to nvidia) and which works reliably in pretty
much every driver in existence except nvidia, and also has a working
software fallback with acceptable performance (used e.g. by the vesa
driver). And folderview doesn't even use XRender directly, only through Qt.
This is at least the second time I'm telling you this. Can't you read? Do
you have Alzheimer's? Or are you just trolling?

How is it folderview's (or Qt's) fault if NVidia can't even implement simple
2D drawing primitives in a way which doesn't lock up your system?

Where's your report to NVidia, who are the only folks who can actually fix
it?

I've told you at least 3 times now that you have to report this to NVidia if
you want it fixed, what are you waiting for?

Your license key may or may not work in a VM. Last time I tried to
install Dell's OEM version of XP inside VMWare (admittedly a few years
ago), it refused to activate and gave a message that it was only
licensed to run on Dell hardware.

If you want something appliance-like where you just add users and 
everything works, look at SME server from

http://wiki.contribs.org/Main_Page.

It is mostly based on Centos (as others have suggested for stability) 
but modified so all administration is through a simple web interface. It 
can also provide many other services but it would be reasonable to 
deploy strictly as a mail server if you want.

Let me be precise. I have VMWare server running right now on this laptop on 
which I'm typing this message. In 'About' it says it is version 1.0.7 
build-108231; my running kernel is -
# uname -r
2.6.27.7-134.fc10.i686
the patch I'm using to make it work is called vmware-update-2.6.27-5.5.7-2 
which I found using Google - it has survived several kernel upgrades and 
supercedes the any-any patches

I haven't bothered to install VMWare Server 2.X because at the moment, I have 
no need for it, and as you point out, it's a bit more complicated. I haven't 
tried any of the linux-land alternatives yet for the same reason. My approach 
may work for some, if not for all, but, to simply make the blanket statement 
that VMWare server is broken for F10 or for Kernels > 2.6.26 is wrong.

I have found, that removing the applet and re-adding the

Weather tab: "F", changing it to something other, then
back to "F", seems to restore it.

Seems for some reason, Gnome-2 configuration files gets
messed up, which may mean that you may need to reset
the offending applet or application via the method mentioned

"Clock" messes up as well and also needs to be reset.  Don't

There is a label for Windows Vista. Remember I said this is a Windows XP
downgrade. If you look at Latitude E-Series laptops on Dell.com (their
USA website), you will see what I am talking about -- I paid an extra
$99 for the downgrade. The CD I am using also shipped with the new

I think you should use CentOS as well. Setting up an email server (and
modifying the associated DNS) is not that hard all by itself. The hard
part is you will need to cope with floods of spam emails some of which
contain viruses. I recommend you virus check all incoming emails and
quarantine and ultimately delete infected mails before they get to the
recipients.

Re: fedora directory server

[Marcel Janssen]

Hi Graig,

Thanks for the reply.

One of the things that bothers me is that I seem to be running a very new 
version and all docs I find on the web are outdated except for this :
http://www.orangespike.ca/?q=node/81

I've been trying for nearly 6 hours now and get nowhere. I will remove 
everything and start all over again. Hopefully I made a mistake somewhere and 
have better luck with a fresh try.

What I understand from your mail and the above web page is that I'm on the 
right track. The problem at this moment is that the admin console doesn't 
start and I have no clue yet why.

regards,
Marcel

fds has its own mail list...

https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-directory-users

I am still using an old version but...

1 - make sure fds & admin console are started...
   
# service fds status
slapd-srv1 (pid 3412) is running...

# service fds-admin status
ns-httpd is stopped

# service fds-admin start
Starting Fedora-DS Admin:  [  OK  ]

/opt/fedora-ds/startconsole -x nologo -a http://localhost:$PORT_NUMBER

(the port number is whatever port number it chose when you set it up)

Re: Virtualizing XP with dual boot FC10/XP

[Robert L Cochran]

I just installed Windows XP Professional under KVM. I put the
installation CD in the CD drive. This is very much like installing
Windows XP on any other machine. Pop the CD in and go! Once I set up the
virtual machine for Windows XP, the installer on the CD started right up
and installed it.

I now have a virtual machine that runs Windows XP, however I am in
trouble with the Windows activation process because I can't (yet)
provide a valid product key code to the Microsoft activation server. The
installation CD is from Dell, I just bought a new laptop with a Dell
"Windows XP downgrade" and I need to ask Dell's support people how I'm
supposed to provide a valid product key for this. It may be that I have
to install Windows Vista first (because I have a Vista CD and product
key too) and then downgrade to XP, I don't know quite yet.

So what I'm saying is, you need the installation CD for Windows XP or
you need a network installation point for Windows XP which is set up the
way Microsoft says it should be. I don't think you can just point to an
Windows XP partition and install from that. Of course, I've never tried
it; I've always been mesmerized by the need for a product key and that
usually means an associated installation CD because some utilities found
on the CD are not installed by default.

The final point is -- since you are setting up a second machine with
Windows XP -- you need a product key for it meaning a proper license for
it. That is how Microsoft works, and they go to great lengths to enforce
the you-must-pay-for-Windows-it-is-not-free mindset.

Now hopefully, I can figure out how to activate my Windows XP.

Bob

Hi All;

I've recently bought a Dell M6400 laptop with 12G of memory and 2 internal

I've loaded Fedora 10 x86_64 to take advantage of the memory so I can setup 
multiple local databases with large memory footprints.


However, I'm somewhat disappointed with the x86_64 version since I cannot get 
the flash plugin and I get the impression that the 32bit version is more

I'm thinking about looking into loading Vmware's ESX server on the laptop and 
loading Fedora 10 386 for my main desktop and a copy of Fedora 10 x86_64 or 
maybe even CentOS as a VM server to run my databases. 


I'm looking for any thoughts/feedback you'all may have..

Thanks in advance

  



There is a 64bit version of flash available, and it works fine.

I have mentioned that here a few times now ...

Finally got around to this today. It worked; many many thanks! I 
had to mess around a while in some places -- perhaps because I've only 
been running linux since RH7; I got two or three books with media for 
RH6, but could never manage to install it

For us hoi polloi, you might want to mention using "quit" instead 
of "exit."

I chewed a while on that, too. Finally decided to start with 
switching the sda and hda locations -- luckily.

Chewed some more, before I realized I had to go through the 
chroot routine; I had never realized you could invoke grub as a command 
on a booted and running machine -- d'uhhh

The machine in need had only one hard drive; so I skipped the

How do you get into anaconda -- is there a way without a rescue

Hadn't ever heard of dailypackage; many thanks! Heavy stuff, at

At a guess, I would say the problem is:

#Entry for /dev/sda1 :
UUID=DC70F0AD70F0900E   /media/sda1 ntfs-3g

I suspect that the UUID for the Windows partition changed when you
re-installed Windows. You can try changing it to:

#Entry for /dev/sda1 :
# UUID=DC70F0AD70F0900E   /media/sda1 ntfs-3g

and see if that gets rid of the error.

I don't know if you are intending to use Fedora as the server.  If you
are I would advise against it because of the frequency of upgrades you
will need to do to keep up with security updates.

If you are familiar with Fedora then I would advice a similar distro
that does have a much longer supported lifetime, such as CentOS.

If your intention is only for a dedicated email server, I would highly
recommend CentOS 5.2.
CentOS is intended for enterprise, it is reliable, stable and has a
very long support cycle.

http://www.centos.org
http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos#head-49a3d6a9a0c95cff0676b0209eae985780e41678
http://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewforum.php?forum=41
http://www.linuxmail.info/mail-server-setup-centos-5/

There are many other resources on the web using CentOS for all sorts
of server related functions.

fedora directory server

[Marcel Janssen]

Hi,

I'm trying to set up fedora directory service and have some issues with that.

I seem to have succesfully started it (after an hour of figuring out why it 
didn't work ---which was permission related) :
[08/12/14:17:23:58] - [Setup] Info Directory Manager DN
[08/12/14:17:24:02] - [Setup] Info cn=Directory Manager
[08/12/14:17:24:02] - [Setup] Info Password
[08/12/14:17:24:05] - [Setup] Info Password (confirm)
[08/12/14:17:24:12] - [Setup] Info Your new DS instance 'superbit' was 
successfully created.
[08/12/14:17:24:12] - [Setup] Success Exiting . . .
Log file is '/tmp/setupv8PLuq.log'

now I try to run fedora-idm-console but have some issues with that.
Whatever ID I enter, I always get a message saying :

Cannot logon because of an incorrect User ID,
Incorrect password or Directory problem

java.io.EOFException: Connection lost

Any ideas why I can't login ?

regards,
Marcel

Virtualizing XP with dual boot FC10/XP

[Hal Meyer]

I have FC10 and Windows dual booted on my PC and would like to
virtualize XP with KVM. 

I want to be able to both boot to XP and also virtualize it in FC10
(obviously not at the same time).

When I try to install a new virtual machine the process wants to install
XP from the CD. Is there a way to just point to the XP partition on the
disk?

Vmware workstation claims to be able to do this but there seem to be
other issues with vmware and FC10.

Thanks,
Hal

Is it me or what? Musical chairs with fonts?

[Dan Thurman]

Seems that every time there is a new Xorg release
my desktop fonts are changing.  One time it is too large,
and now it is very small (try size 5 or 6). Sometimes the
window apps positions have shifted, or the mounted-disk
desktop icons have shifted forcing me to reset the settings
and re-save the desktop settings. Not a big deal, just a bit
annoying.

Yes. all four checkboxes are checked.

my latitude and longitude are set in the "locations" tab.

there's a house icon on the map on the calendar page.

but no weather icons/info on the clock on the upper panel.

Thanks for the hint, though! :)

To be honest, AFAIR VMWare Server 1.0.x, beyond being EOL, doesn't
support kernels >= 2.6.26 - even with the latest any-to-any patch.
Though, AFAIK, it didn't have SELinux problem under both F8 and F9.
On the other side VMWare Server 2.x hass replaced the GTK console
application with a super-complex web-client which, coupled with VMWare's
known tendency to release half-broken RPMs, makes it an SELinux accident
waiting to happen...

Either way, given the nature of VMWare Server (closed source,
proprietary RPM's, out-of-tree kernel drivers) - there's nothing Fedora
can (or should) do about it.

On the up side, if you have semi-new hardware (w/ Intel VT or AMD SVN),
qemu-kvm is a very good OSS alternative. (I recently migrated all my
VMWare Server 1.0.x VM's to qemu-kvm [manually - I have yet to use
virt-manager] and I'm very happy with it)

Firefox, dbus and NetworkManager OH MY

[Steven W. Orr]

Now that I'm running F10, I notice that every time I start firefox, it 
comes up in offline mode. I can only browse by going to online mode. Very 
annoying. I googled around and found that those wacky guys over in ubuntu 
country had figgered it out. Here's the deal: Change every instance in


/etc/dbus-1/system.d/NetworkManager.conf

of

  
to
  

and then do a service NetworkManager restart and your new firefox will 
come up online.


Also, I am running my network over a DHCP connection to my cablemodem 
provider, so it's not really clear to me that NetworkManager should even 
be doing *anything*.


I want to be a good Netizen and report this to bugzilla. My question is 
this: Is this a firefox, a NetworkManager or a dbus bug?

E-mail Server

[Leon Vergottini]

Hi

I have been tasked to commissioned an e-mail server  in the first 
quarter of next year.  I got this task because I am the only one at work 
that plays and have a small bit of understanding of how Linux work.  So, 
I am on a research spree.  I have already had a look at the following sites:


The Linux document project
How to forge
Flurdy.com

I do not ask for step by step instructions, although it will be nice, 
however I ask that you guys will point me to resources on the internet 
that may help me in this regard.


Thank you very much

Regards
Leon
