Soname bump for openssl
Hi all, I'd like to upgrade OpenSSL to 1.0.0-beta3 version just after the F12 Alpha release. I asked rel-eng to create a custom build target for the rebuild so we can avoid shipping the symlink hacks in rawhide. The API did not change in a way it would break any sensible user's of the API, so no patches to the dependent packages are expected to be necessary. Unfortunately as this is major version upgrade the ABI changed. I know that the upgrade would be better before the F12 Alpha however it required major patch porting for the FIPS validation related code which is not included in the upstream 1.0.0 branch. I was unfortunately not able to complete this porting before Alpha Freeze. As always I will rebuild all the dependent packages if you do not ask me otherwise for your package. -- Tomas Mraz No matter how far down the wrong road you've gone, turn back.

I've done a yum update and gtk2 is 2.16.5 now. It doesn't fix the problem. Any idea what else could I check? Just for information: The machine I tested on now was a rawhide installation during f11 devel phase, and now it's still at the f11 stage. Before I started the update I checked the program on this machine, and it seemed with gtk 2.16.1 it was OK. Thanks for your help!

Updates lacking descriptions
I've noticed 4 updates for Fedora 10 recently that lacked any description, bug-links or any information besides the package version to explain what they were or what they would do. This is a problem. The update #s are: 6250, 6409, 7653 and 7838. I posted comments on their pages at admin.fedoraproject.org requesting a description, and have not had any response so far. I commented on one about a month ago, and the other 3 just now. I would have directly contacted the submitters, but I was unable to find a way to do that from the admin.fedoraproject.org update pages. What would be a good next step for me to take to help get descriptions added to these updates (and make sure this happens less often in the future) ?

Re: Updates lacking descriptions
Ben Boeckel wrote: Updates need to be more descriptive than this. Changelog entries and CVS commits can range from split package to oops, forgot the patch to attempted before newRepo finished, bump release. These are useless as update texts. Maintainers should list things that have changed (features added, upstream bugs fixed, etc.). Linking the upstream changelog or release announcement is also good. If this is enforced (and it may be good to add it to the critical-path suggestion), updates will be reduced since when there's little to write about, there's less justification for an update in the first place. I agree wholeheartedly. Without following the upstream release announcements closely, a simple Update to new upstream release X.Y.Z means _nothing_ to users. We should want people to know what changed, at least briefly, with the updated version. What does the new release bring? Does it fix any security or other major bugs? Is it still compatible? I always ask myself these four main questions when creating an update notice through Bodhi: 1. Does this package fix any security issues? These should *always* be mentioned, with some unique and reputable identifier for it (e.g., a CVE number, Fedora/upstream bugzilla report, etc.). From my experiences, this is the only true requirement of Bodhi of these four, since it's necessary for the security team's approval of the update push request. 2. Does this package fix any show stopper bugs? Users should be told when the update fixes issues like crashers or data corruption, which significantly reduce (or worse, eliminate) the package's usefulness. 3. Does this update bring any cool new features to users? I feel it important to note any major feature additions that would entice users to the update. Among a possible myriad of such changes, perhaps it supports a new and better file format (e.g.,an office program having ODF support added), or updated translations, etc.? 4. Lastly, Will this cause any expected or known incompatibilities (backward OR forward) for the user? Would they need to recreate/adapt their existing configuration? Okay, so this last one is actually two questions, but the point remains: it is sometimes necessary to cause an incompatibility that can not (or perhaps should not¹) be prevented. Hopefully, such a change can be mitigated automagically (perhaps with some sed/awk-fu in the %post scriptlet or similar); but this is not always the case (especially if it's within the users' $HOME directories). Also, regardless of whether or not such an automatic change is done, the user SHOULD be informed about it. At best, they would then know *why* their configuration file(s) changed; and at worst, they would know to effect the change(s) themselves. In short: I think it's very reasonable for users to expect that new updates will work with their existing setups without modifications, and it's similarly reasonable to expect a big fat warning of some sort when this is not the case. [1] For example, if there is a major security bug caused by how the configuration is stored, and fixing it would change the format, then the decision is between breaking compatibility or keeping the program insecure: one that must be made for the former, much to users' potential frustration. With my updates, I try to always give a brief summary of what I think are the most important and/or most visible changes - answering these four questions - along with a mention on how to view the upstream changelog for it, so they can know everything that changed, and not just what the update mentions. -- Peter Gordon (codergeek42) pe...@thecodergeek.com signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list

I saw no such strings. What strings were you looking for? I stated: for any strings that would hint/suggest support for the Atheros 9220/9223 (meaning 9220 or 9223 ala grep '922[0-9]' * (within the ath9k directory). So, I emailed Atheros.com sales dept. and asked if they intend to provide an open source driver for the AR9000 series chipsets, esp. the AR9220/AR9223. They replied that they already DO support the AR92xx chipset in the ath9k driver. Before I go out and purchase the mini-pci card, is it true that the ath9k driver has ineed been tested to fully support AR9220/AR9223 chipsets?? Your thought process intrigues me. If you have communication from the manufacturer advising it is supported then you have your answer (and a waterproof returns policy if they are wrong). I have learned never to trust sales people. When it comes to dealing with online merchants, what the sales contact at the manufacturer says will not be sufficient reason for return for a full refund, of a device which turns out to be unsupported.

I dd'd the hard drive onto another, external drive in case I ever wanted it back, then I used fdisk to fix the apparently broken partition table. For good measure, I even created a dummy partition and ran mke2fs on it to assure the drive was in good shape. Instead of using fdisk, use parted to create an empty partition, and then copy your installed partition back to the drive. parted will take care of all the little booking details so tha things should work. It is also faster then dd because it does not need to copy the unused parts of the partition - it understands file systems. Sorry it took me so long to reply to this; I have to sleep and go to work at least sometimes. Pre-creating partitions didn't help.

That's a common thing, and doesn't usually matter. It can be a problem if you use different partitioning programs on the same drive, though. It's usually not a good thing to do, for various reasons, and it might be the problem that you're having (previously Macintosh partitioned, later Linux modified, but not cleanly). So I'm still confused about the disagreement between fdisk and anaconda regarding how to lay down a partition table. Being an old-school kind of guy, I'm inclined to believe fdisk, but I don't really know how to confirm it one way or the other. I seem to recall reading a few reports that denigrated fdisk for not being as good as it should be, that being about how it does its job, nor the user interface that we work with. I also seem to recall that cfdisk was supposed to be better, but I've never tried it. Read the fdisk man file, this is from the end of it: BUGS There are several *fdisk programs around. Each has its problems and strengths. Try them in the order cfdisk, fdisk, sfdisk. (Indeed, cfdisk is a beautiful program that has strict requirements on the par- tition tables it accepts, and produces high quality partition tables. Use it if you can. fdisk is a buggy program that does fuzzy things - usually it happens to produce reasonable results. Its single advantage is that it has some support for BSD disk labels and other non-DOS par- tition tables. Avoid it if you can. sfdisk is for hackers only - the user interface is terrible, but it is more correct than fdisk and more powerful than both fdisk and cfdisk. Moreover, it can be used nonin- teractively.) These days there also is parted. The cfdisk interface is nicer, but parted does much more: it not only resizes partitions, but also the filesystems that live in them. I get the impression that we use fdisk from force of habit, rather than other reasons. -- [...@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.

Speeding up boot process by managing Wifi devices ?
I seem to be rebooting my laptop a lot lately. Unfortunately, its a slow process. I watched the textual output during a reboot and was surprised to learn that most of the time booting is spent on two Wifi related events: a) Determining IP Information for wlan0 b) Searching for the nntp server, even though wlan0 did not connect to a network. I am running KDE and I've got Network Manager enabled, so once I log in, its asking me which network I want to connect to and then connecting to it. All in all, I must be waiting several minutes for my wifi device every time I reboot. Is there a way to change this behavior so that: a) my computer isn't trying to connect to a network when rebooting ? b) its not trying to connect to the time server when it doesn't have a network connection ?

Can anyone tell me how to shutdown and restart X properly. Tried things like startx( had a x lock file exists error) and init 3, but nothing worked. If X hadn't completely locked up, CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE would have restarted X (that is BACKSPACE, the delete key that deletes to the left, not the DEL key that deletes to the right). If the keyboard was still being listened to, then CTRL+ALT+DEL should have rebooted (perhaps after hammering away at the keys a lot), as a second option instead of CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE. I've seen similar symptoms ... for me, the keyboard is usually dead I think, so any recovery procedure would have to be done remotely through an ssh session. I'm not sure if it's a valid way to tell for sure, but I usually try the caps lock/num lock to see if the little lights toggle to see if the keyboard is dead. Whenever they don't toggle, control-alt-* hasn't worked for me. Even the sys rq REISUB trick did nothing. I've never tried unplugging the USB keyboard and plugging it back in... I wonder if that could help recover the keyboard. Even if control-alt-backspace did work, my understanding was that it was disabled by default in f11, but the poster was running f10, so that's not his problem. Regards, David Thank you for all your help; much appreciated. You're correct in thinking that the keyboard doesn't respond to ctrl-alt-backspace, I've tried that. I'll try the kill X next time, but last time I did that it seemed to corrupt my boot partition and I had to use a rescue disk. TBH, my system is getting increasingly unstable (1 hard lock up per day). I'm going to try and memtest, see how it gets on with a couple of hours unreal tournament in windows to check the hardware, and if that doesn't work I'll try upgrading to F11. If that doesn't work, new re-install time, but I've not really got the time for that.

Re: Sorting Music by Composer
Around 07:51pm on Monday, August 10, 2009 (UK time), R. G. Newbury scrawled: Does anyone know of a program with the flexibility to set things up this way? Banshee can sort by composer, or any other tag. Â You will need to right click on the headings, and add composer as a column. Â Its yum installable, too. Steve Right you are...Unfortunately, it won't handle flac files I should have mentioned that. I haven't used it in a while, but possibly Quod Libet (should be available from add/remove software). Well I couldn't even get it to recognize any of my music files, much less play them. And I find that RhythmBox has an incredibly obtuse interface. I was eventually able to create a Playlist consisting of only one album after realizing that the damn thing wants to dump all my music into one list. And I still have no idea which magic series of clicks and keypresses got it to actually play the music. I am NOT impressed at the opacity of the interface. Nor am I impressed with the requirements of importing and creating a playlist for each album. Tedious boring work which computers never get tired of doing.. Anyone got any better ideas for a program which will deal with a tree of composers, with albums as leaves underneath? Geoff -- Please let me know if anything I say offends you.

freenx-server-0.7.3-15.fc11.x86_64 update broke freenx
Hi All, I just had a problem yesterday, where after receiving the freenx- server-0.7.3-15.fc11.x86_64 update via yum, it stopped working correctly for me. When the client tries to log in, I get the following errors now: NX 203 NXSSH running with pid: 4752 NX 285 Enabling check on switch command NX 285 Enabling skip of SSH config files NX 285 Setting the preferred NX options NX 200 Connected to address: 128.114.68.100 on port: 22 NX 202 Authenticating user: nx NX 208 Using auth method: publickey NX 204 Authentication failed. It worked before the update. I tried uninstalling freenx and re- installing, but that did not work. I have tried two clients, one for Linux and one for OS X. I'm thinking that it might have something to do with key exchange, but other than that, I'm baffled. thanks, Eli -- 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

HACKED!
Monday, the 10th, my provider was offline once again. Some repairs were needed at Bell/Microsoft's CO. So I thought it was time to write a letter which I had postponed. Two hours later, the service was back and I did some research. When I came back to my text, I saw it was blank except for the date and the recepient's name and address. I closed AbiWord and was asked if I wanted to save the text. Of course, I... didn't, but most newbies would have: man, you've got to save whatever is left of that file! Whatever changes I later made were never saved: the text always came back to the previous version. I had to finish the text offline. Thereafter, it's with video that I had problems. At Radio-Canada/Microsoft, nothing would play. I checked Edit, Prefrences, Applications in Firefox and the settings were all wrong. I closed/restarted Firefox, everything was back to normal. But soon, the list of applications was shortened by half and, for whatever was left, the usual defaults weren't available to select. I even had Windows Media Player for playing Windows Media files! Yesterday, the service was off for close to 24 hours at my ISP: the equipment at Bell/Microsoft's CO was really antiquated and had to be changed. That's after they came to repair my line twice in the last 4 months! You can see that Bell/Microsoft really dig that Linux users don't care about market share: they give top service! So, I desinstalled/installed the MM applications and, after some playing around, everything almost seemed back to normal... with GNOME-MPlayer for playing ASF/WM files by default. For ASX, I believe Amarok was still suggested :) Since it's impossible to see the properties of GNOME-MPlayer -- a default which looks rather weird, since it's supposed to be only an interface to MPlayer --,I chose /usr/bin/mplayer, but I'm still asked to install MPlayer. Does anybody know the PATH to their default application for ASX files? I really want to give that Bell/Microsoft service another try ASAP. -- 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

F11 xstart issue
Hi my system is F11 i386 with gnome desktop. I set it auto login gnome desktop as a user when system start or reboot. Sometimes, the gnome desktop starting process just stopped at a background image, no panel or other desktop icons appears. I have to login a terminal as root via Ctrl+Alt+F2 and do init 3 init 5 to restart X window?

quotas on nfs share
I cannot enabled quotas over NFS. I spent some time on this and eSearched but I've hit a bump. I have a CentOS 5.3 server with a filesystem configured with quotas. Quotas works locally. I've exported this filesystem to a client. The client is an F11 machine on which I can mount the export, but cannot enable quotas on the mount. The rpc.rquotad is running on both ends. Is it possible to enable quotas over NFS with CentOS/Fedora? Some other people claim they've done it with Ubuntu. Any ideas, links, pointers appreciated. ~af -- 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

Why? client mount -l | grep p1 server:/mnt/p1 on /mnt/p1 type nfs (rw,addr=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) It seems to me that quotas, if any, would need to be enabled or implemented on the server, and not the client. This client has no clue, of course, if any other client is mounting the same export on the server. Some other client may very well be creating files, using the same userid, which impacts the user's quota. Therefore, logically, if there's something that needs to be done to implement quotas, you'll want to look on the server, not the cient. pgpGFuoBsqGOX.pgp Description: PGP signature -- 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
F11 PulseAudio glitching, yes, for real
Yes, it's happening.

Every so often (every 5-10 minutes) I'll get a stutter from Rhythmbox.
