Announcing Fedora 11 Alpha (blink)
To blink or not to blink: that is the question; Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer The slings and arrows of outrageous users, Or to take arms against a see of power drains. And by opposing end them? To die: to sleep; No more: and by a sleep to say we suspend. Ok enough of that. The Fedora project is proud to present the availability of Fedora 11 (Leonidas) Alpha. Now is the time to test, now is the time to improve. The Alpha release provides the first opportunity for the wider community to become involved with testing Fedora 11 by way of Rawhide: Alpha represents a sanitized snapshot of rawhide, Fedora's development branch, which undergoes rapid changes before becoming the next major release. * The Alpha should boot on the majority of systems, and provides: * A look at what new features are to be included in the next release * A way to provide feedback and bug reports to help ensure that the next release is as good as possible For information about what new and wonderful things Alpha brings us, please check out the release notes: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_11_Alpha_release_notes What to test Test status is being tracked here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Fedora_11_Alpha_Install_Test_Results Check out this page before reporting problems, including looking through the bug trackers as linked on that page.

Fedora 11 The Antikythera Mechanism
Hello from Greece! I would like to recommend the Antikythera Mechanism as a possible theme for artwork... What is so great about the Antikythera Mechanism? * It fits within nautical and greek themes (as it is a navigation device built in Greece) * It is the first mechanical computer, a device ahead of its time Find out more, here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antikythera_mechanism a small quote from wikipedia: The *Antikythera mechanism* (IPA: [ˌæntɪkɪˈθɪərə]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:IPA, an-ti-ki-*theer*-uh), is an ancient mechanical calculatorhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calculator(also described as the first known mechanical computer http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analog_computer[1]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antikythera_mechanism#cite_note-0 [2]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antikythera_mechanism#cite_note-Washington_Post-1) designed to calculate astronomical http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astronomypositions. It was discovered in the Antikythera wreck http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antikythera_wreck off the Greekhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greeceisland of Antikythera http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antikythera, between Kytherahttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kytheraand Crete http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crete, in 1901. Subsequent investigation, particularly in 2006, dated it to about 150–100 BC; and hypothesised that it was on board a ship that sank en route from the Greek island of Rhodes http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhodes to Rome. Technological artifacts of similar complexity did not reappear until a thousand years later.[3]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antikythera_mechanism#cite_note-2 Jacques-Yves Cousteau http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacques-Yves_Cousteauvisited the wreck for the last time in 1978, [4] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antikythera_mechanism#cite_note-3 but found no more remains of the Antikythera Mechanism. Professor Michael Edmunds of Cardiff University who led the study of the mechanism said: This device is just extraordinary, the only thing of its kind. The design is beautiful, the astronomy is exactly right. The way the mechanics are designed just makes your jaw drop. Whoever has done this has done it extremely carefully. He added: ...in terms of historic and scarcity value, I have to regard this mechanism as being more valuable than the Mona Lisahttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mona_Lisa .[5] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antikythera_mechanism#cite_note-4[6]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antikythera_mechanism#cite_note-Guardian-5 The device is displayed in the Bronze Collection of the National Archaeological Museum of Athenshttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Archaeological_Museum_of_Athens, accompanied by a reconstruction made and offered to the museum by Derek de Solla Price http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derek_J._de_Solla_Price.

Re: problems of running koji on CentOS with EPEL packages
Thanks, I think there may be something wrong configuring the host, because when I tried the command /usr/sbin/kojid -f to see what happened, it showed information such as below: Traceback (most recent call last): File /usr/sbin/kojid, line 2732, in ? main() File /usr/sbin/kojid, line 68, in main tm = TaskManager() File /usr/sbin/kojid, line 532, in __init__ self.host_id = session.host.getID() File /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/koji/__init__.py line 1133, in __call__ return self.__func(self.__name, args, opts) File /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/koji/__init__.py line 1380, in _callMethod raise err koji.AuthError: No host specified So I'm wondering whether I've made mistakes during configuring some host. However, I'm really confused about which host it referred. Does it mean the kojihub server? If so, what should I do? I'm now playiing with the whole koji environment at one machine just to see how it works, and plan to run it on several machines to do the real jobs. I guess there must be something wrong with the URL configuration of mine. But I don't know where. -- Fedora-buildsys-list mailing list Fedora-buildsys-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-buildsys-list

I'll take a look, thanks for the pointer. The needs for us are, I think, pretty simple. It needs to work as a simple calendaring system - you can just use it as a calendar, nothing more, nothing less, if you don't want anything else - into which you can do all the usual calendar stuff, schedule events. The only other significant requirement for me is that it support CalDAV, because it's important to allow people to access it through other clients and calendar systems so that it doesn't become yet another damn thing they have to look at separately. I would be accessing the calendar from Evolution, for e.g., along with my personal calendar and other shared calendars I have going. -- adamw Adam, Funny thing, I was just mentioning how it would be nice to have a calendaring solution that would be able to let people pull feeds and put items on the calendar for Fedora with use in FAS. I think even though there's currently no solution quite as good as google calendar (or apple's iCal) in free software, there are alternatives. Bongo Project - http://bongo-project.org/Main_Page (formerly Hula) (GPLv2) Bedework - http://www.bedework.org/bedework/ (BSD License) DAViCal - http://rscds.sourceforge.net/ (GPL) I'm sure there are others, but I think a self-sustaining calendar that could integrate with the Fedora Account System (FAS) and make it so that people can create events that could get pushed to a central calendar which others might subscribe. Something like this would be awesome and I'd be happy to help you get it started. Maybe one of the above programs can meet our needs, or maybe we need to look into something else.

Oh, there's a slight issue with the handling of modules.order still for the binary tries in newer module-init-tools. This might manifest in a switch of e.g. module used in initrd for storage devices with multiple modaliases. So...one question... We now have binary versions of files like modules.dep, modules.alias and modules.symbols. These end in .bin and *augment* but do not replace the textual versions of these files. If we find the binary files, we are *much* faster at loading modules - boot overhead is e.g. under one second. But we need to be able to make changes to these binary files in order to add ordering support, and also just for the future. Our plan is to freeze the old text file format (the last change will be the one made recently in which modules.dep can now have relative paths to save space) and to fallback to it whenever the binary format changes and modprobe finds older binary files. This works fine, but means that, if we upgrade module-init-tools and there is a binary format change, then the system will be slow booting before depmod has been re-run again.

(If your probe points are at actual entry points instead of inside prologues, then you can get the function arguments directly, assuming you know which calling convention that particular function has, which you don't really but you'd probably be happy pretending you did.) kprobes are quite expensive on the tracer to trace every function. You do not really need any kind of magical list of spots generated at compile time. You can just do insertion anywhere it works. (If you're willing to fall back to kprobes, it works most anywhere.) You can keep it real primitive like now and just only work where there is exactly NOP5 sitting there. Then all you're really asking for at build time is to insert a gratuitous NOP5 at entry points. A compiler tweak for that is a pretty simple kludge, not even tied in to actual code generation magic. You could probably even do it with crazy-ass asm/.o fiddling as is your wont. Hacking gcc is not an option. What? Are we to wait till this hack in gcc comes out to be able to do this. Not to mention, dynamic ftrace runs on x86, powerpc, arm, and I think even superH.

Openswan: Works, but...
Hi, According to the homepage of openswan, i configured a server and a roadwarrior (think this is host-to-host). Using tcpdump, i see, that traffic between those 2 hosts is encrypted, if the server is the endpoint. this server is a transparent proxy. so, if i surf eg. to google via this server, the traffic seems no longer encrypted to me. (no esp-packets mentionned in tcpdump). Even my mailserver is not on the same machine, so this traffic isn't encrypted either. all i want is to make sure, that ALL traffic that comes from any client and passes through my server is encrypted, as connections are wireless. btw. if i tell firefox to use the proxy-server instead of using transparent proxying, internet traffic gets encrypted too. but i would like to use transparent proxying. how can i do this? or is it encrypted, and by any reason i don't see it like this?

Samba: question I am ashamed to ask
I am running samba on a Linux (actually Centos-5.2) server on my little home network, which has 5 Fedora machines and 1 or 2 Windows XP (Home) desktops. My question is: can I, or even should I, add a stanza, say [windows], to /etc/samba/smb.conf to give information about the Windows client? If I did this, would it enable me to access files on the Windows machine from my Linux laptop? Could some kind soul give an example of such a stanza, if indeed there is such a thing. I'm puzzled about this, because I googled for smb.conf examples and looked at quite a few, but none of them had an entry for a Windows share, even though most of them had Windows clients. I might mention that I installed samba to back up my Windows machine(s) with BackupPC. This is working perfectly, backing up both Fedora and Windows machines. Also I can see my Linux shares on the Windows machine. But as I said, I cannot see the Windows share on my Linux machines.

Hi Daniel. I'm only referencing playing DVD's here, but vlc plays them ok on F9, as does Mplayer, and I've just got Kaffeine playing them as well, using the gstreamer engine. I'm using an Asus M2N-X Plus mobo with an ati pci-express graphics card. Fedora 9 has chosen to use the radeon driver for this card, but other distros on this same machine have chosen different graphics drivers. For example, the Archlinux install, which has the same vlc version as Fedora 9 is using the ati driver, and vlc works ok on that. I also have Ubuntu, and Kubuntu Intrepid 8.10 installs on the same machine. they are using the qt version of vlc (0.9.4 Grishenko), and both these distros have installed using the vesa graphics driver. Vlc will not play dvd's. I get the menu, and about a half second of sound and video, then the playback stops. I won't ramble on, but think this may have something to do with the vesa graphics driver on the Ubuntu/Kubuntu Intrepid installs, and the vlc qt version. I removed vlc from the Kubuntu Intrepid install, and installed the older version of vlc from the Kubuntu hardy repo, which has vlc 0.8.6a janus (wxWidgets Interface). That version of vlc works fine on Kubuntu Intrepid, with the vesa graphics driver. On my Kubuntu/Ubuntu Intrepid installs, Totem, Ogle, Kaffeine, and Xine play dvd's ok. It's just a problem with the qt version of vlc (0.9.4 Grishenko). I've just rebooted to F8 on the same machine. Vlc is version 0.8.7 Janus (wxWidgets interface), and plays dvd's ok, and that is using the vesa graphics driver. Personally, I'd try downloading, and installing the F8 version of vlc from the rpmfusion repo, if it's still available, as F8 is now no longer supported. Just some observations from problems I've had with vlc on Ubuntu/Kubuntu Intrepid, using the qt version of vlc, and perhaps related to the graphics card driver being used. Sorry if this is a bit of a ramble, but I've already posted my problem to 3 mailing lists, including videolan, but with no replies. I've fixed my vlc problem on Ubuntu/Kubuntu Intrepid, by using an earlier version of vlc. The same may work for you. All the best. nigel. You could try : vlc --reset-config vlc --reset-config, is exactly it! Thanks!

Re: Samba: question I am ashamed to ask
Timothy Murphy wrote: I am running samba on a Linux (actually Centos-5.2) server on my little home network, which has 5 Fedora machines and 1 or 2 Windows XP (Home) desktops. My question is: can I, or even should I, add a stanza, say [windows], to /etc/samba/smb.conf to give information about the Windows client? If I did this, would it enable me to access files on the Windows machine from my Linux laptop? Could some kind soul give an example of such a stanza, if indeed there is such a thing. The Samba server is only for sharing files on the computer it is running on. (There are exceptions, but they are not important here.) The Windows shares have to be configured on the Windows machine that is sharing them. If they are configured with the same workgroup, they will show up as an additional host when scanning the workgroup. If the workgroup name is different, they will show up as a different workgroup that you can scan. For this to work, the firewall settings on the Windows machine must be configured to let file sharing through. The default settings do not allow it. There are a couple of ways to handle mounting the Windows shares. It depends on what you are after, and if the Windows machines are expected to be runing when ever the Linux machine is running. Do you want the Windows share accessible to all users, a specific group of users, or do you want each user to be able to mount the share when they are logged in to the desktop? I suspect the later. In that case, you would want to use the network browser for your desktop. For Gnome it is Places -- Network.

What is the command and how is this done while the system is 'in use', or is there some way to do it occationally during boot time? -- 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

No online fsck available for ext2 but see the man pages for fstab, e2fsck and tune2fs. With tune2fs you can set the maximal mount count / check interval that is applied for file system checks at boot time for all file systems with a non-zero value in the 6th column (fs_passno).

Re: F10 install - RAID - nightmare (Solved)
Robin Laing wrote: Hello, The system is at home and so are all my notes. Since I first started using RAID arrays, this is the first time I have had problems with an install. I have been fighting this for over a week. The machine was running F7 with RAID arrays. I first tried to install F10 using a DVD that was checked by both sha1sum and disk check on install including the RAID array. The install is working without the RAID array. After installing on the non-RAID drive, I started going through the install to get the RAID working. After much reading I found out that due to the problem install, I had to zero the Superblocks. I did this and ensured that there was no superblock data with mdadm --examine {partitions}. Recreated the multiple RAID partitions. I am using a 1.5T drive partitions into 8 usable partitions. I created the 8 partitions using mdadm. I created /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf with mdadm --examine --scan as per the man page. I am providing this in a hope that it will help someone either today or in the future. Someone else success helped me. After 10 days I can say I have a working F10 installation. Hey, 10 for 10. :) To solve the issue I did a full re-install without the RAID array. I have read reports about anaconda having issues with RAID arrays. After making sure that the install was working well I started playing with the RAID.

System Time
I can't decide whats going on here, but I decided to try XFCE (it is seemingly faster - athlon, 2ghz, 1gig mem) but the clock in the panel is 5 hours slow... actually, it's five hours fast. The 'clock' command in a terminal tells me it's 9:05 eastern time, the XFCE panel clock says 9:05, but the GNOME panel clock tells me it's 2:05 (pm). Also, the windows side of the maching tells me it's (-5) hours. I don't much care about Gnome, but would like to know how to reset my system time to the 'correct' time ( I know, the correct time depends on how fast I'm going etc)!

It is so very counterproductive because my idea was to setup a small,efficient system specifically without GNOME or KDE's overhead. This is an old computer, with a Celeron processor Take a look at this, this is the result of sudo groupinstall XFCE: A group in Fedora includes optional dependencies and the Xfce group includes things like GDM and NetworkManager-gnome which will pull in other dependencies. This won't necessary impact anything more than disk space. If you want a pure Xfce setup, you can cherry pick individual packages and do something like # yum install Thunar Terminal xfce4-panel thunar-archive-plugin thunar-volman xfdesktop xfce-utils xfce4-mailwatch-plugin xfce4-mixer Note that this will still pull things like GTK2 simply because GNOME and Xfce use the same library. I have tried this a number of times and over time, gnome elements still get pulled in. I think part of the problem may be that when a developer (who perhaps uses Gnome) builds rpms, he often puts in some unnecessary dependency. To see this, note that yum erase gnome\* (see below for my installation) will delete things like firefox which should have nothing to do with gnome but is mistakenly dependent on these gnome\* rpms, either directly or indirectly. It is not clear what anyone can do about it. I hope Rahul is right when he says that this only takes diskspace, no other resources. On the other hand, like xubuntu, I still look forward to a Fedora (using XFCE or even better, LXDE, lets say) for low-end systems. Something that would have a small footprint, but be almost as functional as a bloated Gnome or a KDE or a Windoze machine...This is where Linux's appeal is, the ability to have features available for every level, and I would hate for that to go away.

Re: How to set up a DNS server(at Home)
Ok, with setting up the domain server, the key thing to consider, is this going be able to be queried from the internet? If so, then yes you need to register a domain, to avoid confusion and issues. If this is just going to be isolated to your local network, and not accessible outside of your network, you won't have to register a domain.

Check out http://my.safaribooksonline.com/0596100574 Which is the DNS BIND book, which is a very valuable asset when learning DNS. In a quick nutshell, the named.ca file contains the IP addresses and names of the 'root' DNS servers in the world. These are the 'dot' in your .com/.net etc (actually it is the dot AFTER the .com but that is a little complex to get into) That file helps you find the DNS server of the domain you are after, starting at the root, or . and working down to, say if you are looking for www.google.com, going from the . DNS to the .com DNS to the google.com DNS. Simplest way to set up a home DNS, copy the 'localhost.localdomain' file, keep everything down past to the NS listings (I believe it should be NS localhost in that line) and then add in your hostnames and IP's in a format like host1IN A 10.1.1.1 host2IN A 10.1.1.2 host3IN A 10.1.1.3 Where IN is the most common use that you will find and works well in this situation (Stands for Internet Name, I believe) and A stands for the type of record.

I got a server busy on baseurl, can't say what that might do. -- Bill Davidsen david...@tmr.com We have more to fear from the bungling of the incompetent than from the machinations of the wicked. - from Slashdot -- 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

I kind of gave up on xen and went to KVM just because it was less hassle and I could see issues coming getting xen back in the kernel. I just roll KVM machine from the command line for the most part, assuming they are not servers. I don't have a good tool to put servers up without some hand work to set up the bridging needed to establish a machine which appears to be separate. I didn't know about xenner, but I'm not sure it actually would help, paravirt under a KVM machine is unlikely to be better than just a KVM machine.

Re: XFCE depends on GNOME, why?
I have tried this a number of times and over time, gnome elements still get pulled in. Be specific and show the output of the command I have given. Xfce does have GNOME elements in it depending on what you consider part of GNOME. Hi, All I was trying to say was that over time, gnome elements got pulled in, despite trying things like this or similar. I started with the XFCE Fedora 8 Live CD and then stripped it of gnome-related RPMS and over time, and upgrades, I still have all those gnome\* rpms which have nothing to do with gnome. I think part of the problem may be that when a developer (who perhaps uses Gnome) builds rpms, he often puts in some unnecessary dependency. Can't happen this way. Every package is build under a clean chroot. GNOME developers don't build Xfce anyway. I am not talking about Gnome developers, rather developers of packages, who seem to include some gnome dependency sometimes. As an example, the statistical package R used to depend on gnome. Now, I have been very involved with R in the past, starting from 0.1 and I know for a fact that it predated gnome and has nothing to do with gnome. More importantly, now, it suddenly does not again depend on anything to do with gnome. It all depends on what it is told to depend on when the rpm is built, from my simplified understanding. Sometimes this is unnecessary, as in the case of R, but still included in error. I don't see this problem completely going away. To see this, note that yum erase gnome\* (see below for my installation) will delete things like firefox which should have nothing to do with gnome but is mistakenly dependent on these gnome\ Firefox has such dependencies. Upstream either include local copies or statically builds them and it is less exposed that way but it is still there. I use firefox from the days of phoenix, and even contributed to the original code. I did not have gnome in those days. I wonder if it really requires gnome, either directly or indirectly. Similarly for xfce4-xfapplet-plugin, etc. Trotter -- 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

Can't help unless there is a specific complaint. If a specific package has unnecessary dependencies or things that can be split up, file bug reports. I am not talking about Gnome developers, rather developers of packages, who seem to include some gnome dependency sometimes. This can sometimes be split up. Again, you have to be specific to have a meaningful conversation. I use firefox from the days of phoenix, and even contributed to the original code. I did not have gnome in those days. I wonder if it really requires gnome, either directly or indirectly. Similarly for xfce4-xfapplet-plugin, etc. Yes. Read the description of the plugin. It is a wrapper around GNOME applets and yes, package dependencies change over time. So what predates which project doesn't make much of a difference to the current state of dependencies.

grubby fatal error unable to find a suitable template
While upgrading a Fedora 8 x86_64 system on a software RAID-1 mirror, I ran into a problem that prevents rpm from installing kernels in the grub.conf. The Fedora 10 upgrade of the Fedora 8 system completed without errors except that the upgraded boot loader didn't work but just presented the text... GRUB Having seen this before in upgrades on other Fedora system, I just repeated the upgrade process but selected the third option to create a new boot loader. This allowed the installed Fedora 10 to boot without problems. However when I did the first yum update, the kernel rpm installation showed the error... grubby fatal error unable to find a suitable template This resulted in no entry being added to grub.conf. When I compared the grub.conf.rpmsave, it has... default=0 timeout=5 splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz hiddenmenu title Fedora (2.6.27.5-117.fc10.x86_64) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.27.5-117.fc10.x86_64 ro root=/dev/md1 nodmraid rhgb quiet initrd /initrd-2.6.27.5-117.fc10.x86_64.img whereas the grub.rpm present now shows... default=0 timeout=0 splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz hiddenmenu title Fedora (2.6.27.5-117.fc10.x86_64) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.27.5-117.fc10.x86_64 ro root=UUID=3adeca51-506e-4b51-aea7-c0ca9525ec36 nodmraid initrd /initrd-2.6.27.5-117.fc10.x86_64.img I was able to add an entry for the newly installed kernel and use /dev/md1 for root and this boots the new kernel fine. Does anyone know how to eliminate this problem? Where are the grub templates stored? I am assuming the use of the UUID label is causing the problem for grubby. I found bugzilla 124246 for this issue but it doesn't seem to have a solution other than the vague recommendation to not use the old grub.conf but have a separate template file (whatever that means). Thanks in advance for any advice as I am really worried about updating the kernel now.
