So you send a nag mail, feature owners ignores it, you drop the feature and the functionality is still there. So unless the feature owner is actually convinced it is worth the effort, he or she can let the feature be dropped and continue just working on whatever they are. I don't know whether this can be fixed or is considered a problem but I think we should see if we can do it in a different way. It isn't always a problem at all. Other times it is a huge problem. NFSv4 by default is an example of a change that could cause problems. The reason being that it affected numerous other pieces of the distro. That kind of change needs coordination (even if it's just break the world at the beginning of the cycle and everyone figures out workarounds before beta.) OTOH, Better WebCam Support was self contained among a few developers who were already talking to each other. This is a feature where dropping it is only dropping the release notes portion, not the actual work. So do we need to fix this? I think recognizing that there's different types of features and some of them can continue even if they are dropped while others must be (wholly or partially) reverted if they are dropped is step one. Putting more effort (tracking development, making sure that the owner knows what things need to be in place for what deadlines, finding extra manpower if possible if a feature is slipping) towards the ones that would need to be reverted if they don't complete is step two. -Toshio signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list

If the no frozen rawhide becomes a reality for F13, then this latter complaint will become moot.

If someone has a need for the module on python 3, they can take on that work. = Background = Python 3 is intended by upstream to be the future of Python, but we have many critical components that use Python 2. Python 2 and Python 3 are sufficiently different that we need both (try writing print in each). Python 2 will be around for a long time. An interesting summary of Python 3 adoption can be seen here: http://renesd.blogspot.com/2009/09/py3kpython3-more-than-one-year-on-096.html An earlier proposal about python 3 in Fedora is here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2008-May/msg02417.html Going forward, I will have plenty of time to spend, as part of my dayjob, on Python in Fedora [1] = Proposal = I want to get python 3 into Fedora, but I don't want to break yum or anaconda (or anything else, for that matter!) How to do this? I propose that Fedora shall have separate, parallel-installable Python 2 and Python 3 stacks. I believe we can get things to the point where on a Fedora box you'd be able to install both stacks, and have some processes running python 2 code, and some running python 3, simultaneously. Where I would draw the line is on having both python 2 and python 3 running within the same _process_: the two libraries share most of their symbol names, but with differing implementations, and the result of trying to dynamically link the two into the same address space would be highly unstable. As an example, you'd be able to install both mod_python and mod_python3 rpms, but you wouldn't be able to (sanely) configure httpd to have both running simultaneously (I guess we should add a run-time warning for this case) Scoping: - this work would target Fedora 13. I'd avoid pushing it into F12 until it's proven safe to do so - the proposal is for python 2 vs python 3. It could be extended to support having multiple minor-versions of Python as well, but that's a big extension of the work involved and not something I'm planning to work on myself. = Details = We should split python 2 and python 3 at the source RPM level, where possible. The easy case is when upstream release separate tarballs for the python 2 and python 3 versions of code. For example, given package python-foo in packaging CVS, there would be a separate python3-foo for the python 3 version. There would be no expectation that the two would need to upgrade in lock-step. (The two SRPMS could have different maintainers within Fedora: the packager of a python 2 module might not yet have any interest in python 3) The more difficult case is when the python module is emitted as part of the build of a larger module. Some examples: - the build of rpm itself emits an rpm-python subpackage. - Another example is the postgres srpm, which emits a postgresql-python subpackage. In a quick attempt at seeing other examples, on my laptop (F11), here are the packages installed that provide python modules where the package name differs from the srpm name: $ rpm -qf /usr/lib/python2.*/site-packages/* | grep -v is not owned | SIA, this is off of topic , i am sure. BUT, it is very strange that could be exists, perhaps, some file or directory not owned by someone.

clutter-cairomm is obsolete and should be retired
Hi, (I've already mailed this to the maintainer on October 1st, no answer so far.) clutter-cairomm has longstanding broken dependencies in Fedora 12: clutter-cairomm-0.7.4-2.fc11.i586 requires libclutter-cairo-0.8.so.0 clutter-cairomm-0.7.4-2.fc11.i586 requires libcluttermm-0.8.so.2 clutter-cairomm-0.7.4-2.fc11.i586 requires libclutter-glx-0.8.so.0 clutter-cairomm-devel-0.7.4-2.fc11.i586 requires pkgconfig(cluttermm-0.8) clutter-cairomm-devel-0.7.4-2.fc11.i586 requires pkgconfig(clutter-0.8) It turns out this is because clutter-cairo, which this was wrapping, isn't in Fedora at all anymore, clutter obsoletes it: http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/rpms/clutter/devel/clutter.spec?r1=1.28r2=1.29 https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/2005 Upstream also considers it obsolete: http://git.gnome.org/cgit/clutter-cairomm/commit/?id=cb06f43f509b6609ddc055b08aa1a3d7a43d500e and there will apparently be no new release to work with the new Clutter API, instead cluttermm should be used directly. So IMHO we should: 1. have cluttermm obsolete clutter-cairomm and 2. follow the package retirement policy: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_remove_a_package_at_end_of_life for clutter-cairomm, in particular get it blocked from F12 by rel-eng as soon as possible. Nothing in Rawhide requires clutter-cairomm according to: repoquery --repoid=rawhide --whatrequires --alldeps clutter-cairomm Kevin Kofler -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list

Any cleaner way to do this? I hope you find someone else to help you with your favorite site. :-) :-) Come on, that's an easy one! Look at this one for instance: http://www.radio-canada.ca/emissions/sophie_paquin/saison4/ Click the picture below and try to get to part 2, any way you want. Since you have asked so nicely, I did I believe you must have the Moonlight crap installed. Nono moonlight. I could not test this with F11 since I have my F11 system in a non-GUI configuration at the moment testing some other stuff. ButI think it will work just as well as my RHELv4.8. I use mplayer and its associated plugin. As a matter of fact, I found a link on that site that when pressed brings up a window suggesting the user get mplayer to view their content with my environment. (Please don't ask me where I found it...it was while using a system no fully configured for video content.) When I open http://www.radio-canada.ca/emissions/sophie_paquin/saison4/ it brings up a single frame with a large white arrow on a blue background at the lower right. I can click on that to start play. At the bottom of the video frame is a control bar. The far right is for audio control. To the right of that is a slider to control where in the video stream you which to navigate. To the right of that is a 3 segment box. The middle of the segment displays 1/5. The right and left segments contain and respectively. These can be used to navigate between the various segments. The left most control is play/pause for the video. So, it works just fine for me using mplayerplug-in 3.50. If and when I get the chance I'll do the same on F11 with the mplayer that I have installed on it. But, don't expect it to be soon. signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital 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

And when it pops up, it takes about a minute for it to go way, during which time the messages subject line is hidden. Having to move the mouse to a clear place when I want to switch to the + key, and back again tends to aggravate my arthritis. Can this be relocated to a point above the icon, or can the display timeout be set down to maybe 2 seconds? If so, what file do I edit to accomplish this? I have had a reply from a developer.

Re: [Bulk] Installing Windows afterFedora
I have the same issue about windows, recently the university that i work have buy a package of windows 7 and before that they have the windows Vista and XP. The internal system that they use here to manage all the database of students work only on windows, so i put some effort into Virtual machine work, and find out that it was the best solution to this issue, you can install any windows ( at least in Fedora 11 i have tested ) and it works, you have your own linux machine, you do not need to change to an OS that you aren't used at. Today, i have my Notebook HP with Fedora 11, and two Virtual Machines on it, one with Windows XP and the other with Windows 7. An they work perfectly, and the best side of it is that i have my Fedora :D ( yes, i'm in love with Fedora ). Hope my advice enlighten you to the good side of the force ( yes, that too ) My best regard.

I'm not worried about the grub.conf, but the boot sector could be an issue, I have seen reports that XP with patches and Win7 check the boot sector now (XP at patch level 3). other than having to rewrite the boot sector, is that going to be an issue? Any other things I should know? I have had the same problem. What I did was make sure of the grub instructions I wanted to use and wrote them down or printed them out -- just in case all else failed and I needed written notes. I made sure that I knew how to re-install using grub-install or grub or firstaid on my Fedora LiveCD or the DVD disk. Once I had protected myself, I just installed WindowsXP and then re-installed grub. It was fast and easy (well not installing Windows -- but you know what I mean). This you should double check, but if I remember correctly, you only need to install Windows on the first partition if you are going to depend on the Windows boot loader. Otherwise, you can chainload Windows from any partition as long has you correctly tell grub.conf where the windows partition is. e.g. title Windows XP SP3 rootnoverify (hd0,5) chainloader +1 if windows has been installed on the first disk, 6th partition. -- Regards Bill Fedora 11, Gnome 2.26.3 Evo.2.26.3, Emacs 23.1.1 -- 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 -- Fabio Jara.

Re: Router in Fedora. Alternative to Mikrotik
On Fri, 2009-10-02 at 12:57 -0400, Fabio Jara wrote: After some research about what Peter said i realize that your looking about the hardware of mikrotik, i was asking about the ROUTER OS that they use con that hardware. Something that can do the same, without editing and configuring all those services one by one. I already have a Fedora 11 Server with DNS, Apache, Samba, Mysql, DHCP and Squid configured and working. What i want to do is manage all of them, like adding users to Squid, and setting the bandwidth they can use by user, that kind of stuff. A GUI interface is going to save me a lot of time. Also, i have Webmin installed, but it doesn't give me that kind of management. To be pedantic, you won't manage them all with one interface. Even for tools for configuring one particular thing, you'll be switching between different pages for different aspects of the configuration of it. So, on that note, it's not that different to use different tools to configure different things. Though, compared to some of the tools that worked on two or more related, things (different services that work together), you lose that convenience. There's a plethora of GUI configuration tools that can be called up from the menu, and I think there's still a control centre application which bungs them all into a window (instead of a menu). But I've always found the GUI tools to be limiting. For instance, they often only supported a small amount of the options you could configure, and sometimes you had to understand how to manually configure something to work out the GUI tool, anyway (e.g BIND configuration). And, from time to time, they were out of date. The thing that they configured had changed, over time, but the third-party tool for configuring them was still doing things the old, and incompatible, way. Or they required the configuration file to be set up in a particular way, or they stored a configuration somewhere else and updated the main configuration with their own, making it impossible to manually configure things as well. -- [...@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.

Lucky for us it isn't a terminal disease. If you desire to update other packages you can always do yum --skip-broken update. And then chill for a time while the broken issues get resolved. Given that the upgrade installs a new kernel (2.6.30.8-64 from memory) which doesn't do networking, more than chill is required. I did this to my production laptop, then managed to do it again on a desktop. Since it happened after midnight, I just saved a dmesg for investigation, I assume all networking is dead since the desktop had the same problem. Manual booting into an older kernel worked on the desktop, the laptop old kernel doesn't like something in the partial upgrade which did take place, so I'm somewhat hung on that one. All is working here just fine after skipping the broken updates. So, I've no idea as to what you've managed to accomplish. But since you've decided to keep all the dmesg output for investigation private I suspect nobody will be able to help you either. Didn't need help, just a few hours sleep and time to spend an hour looking. dmesg actually just showed one NIC not detected, the one needed for networking, of course. Problem solved. Glad to hear it is working again. Too bad you've decided not to share what the solution to your problem was. It is usually good form when informing folks of an issue (that you seem to be connecting with a given update )what the final solution was so as to help others who may encounter the same issue. We are left to wonder...why the NIC wasn't detected...hardware issue?...and what was done to fix the problem... The NIC not detected failed on the newest kernel because the upgrade failed before kmod-wl was upgraded. The previous kernel also didn't see the NIC, not sure why, the dmesg just didn't see it. It could have happened in my attempts to manually get things working again. The kernel before that, 2.6.29-?? saw the NIC and was what I finally used to finish the upgrade. I could have moved the machine to a cable and used the other NIC, that is a supported hardware. Someone wrote and noted that they lost their console and were using a kmod video driver, that sounds like the same problem. They just booted the old kernel. If there's a lesson here it's that you should keep a few (more than one) previous kernels in case an upgrade has an issue. -- 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 did successful upgrades on a number of system after the problem, but on the two systems which had an initial problem a simple upgrade fails. I will try downgrading and see if that helps. One system will not do networking since the upgrade failed, so I'm not sure what's up with that, it just broken. I rpm -e all my ibus* and anthy packages, then reinstalled the old versions from my f11 dvd repo. I still have the same problem. I also notice that the ibus desktop icon is still the new icon (the one that appeared after I'd done the updates), not the icon which was present after my original f11 install which I think looked different. So it seems that some unrevertible changes have been made. I'm just not buying Bill's concept of breaking and never digging out.

It's easy enough as user to '$ mv ~/.ibus ~/.ibus-bak' and restart ibus to create brand new settings (right click on ibus icon in system tray and choose 'Restart') and if your did this 'rpm -e' WITHOUT resorting to anything radical such as '--nodeps' then if you create the new settings file as per above, it should be back to where it was when you first installed it. Likewise, if you did not do anything like '--nodeps' you should be able to bring it up to date simply by doing 'yum update' and if that fails, you should show us the text of where/how it failed.

Almost sounds as if some other process has reserved the start/stop method. Since a new account would/should start out with a blank home directory without any .ibus or .dbus directories it would suggest that the problem is actually external to ibus. I'm going to presume that the .imsettings.log did not reveal anything either. Would that survive a reboot under some conditions? I know some locks can get orphaned when problems occur. Is this something that could/should be cleared at boot? You said you were running Gnome. Does the same thing happen under KDE?

Screensaver in F11 loses horizontal sync
I searched both Google and the archives of this list, but could not find the magic keys to produce useful answers. I downloaded the Fedora 11(*) live CD and used it to install on two boxen. Both are showing the same problem. Everything works well until the screen saver kicks in. At that point the display loses sync and shows torn jagged diagonal lines across the screen. Any normal input triggers a recovery and returns to my regularly scheduled programs. Fedora 11, KDE Box 1: Dell GX270 SFF P-4/Xeon 2.6 GHz 512 MB DDR RAM 20 GB IDE drive Intel 865 Video Chip Box 2: White box P-4/Celeron 1.0 GHz 512 MB DDR RAM 60 GB IDE drive Apollo ProMedia PLE133T/a Video chip Both boxes are talking to a Dell E173FP display through a Compaq KVM. Display resolution is 1280x1024. Where can I find instructions on how to re-configure the screen saver so it inherits the correct video settings? Where are the rest of the video settings saved so I can enable some of the options that don't show up? For example, in System Settings-Dislay the second box only shows a 60 Hz Refresh option. I need to enable and select 75 Hz. The file I was expecting, /etc/X11/xorg.conf, is not there. Where can I find instructions on how to install and switch to XFCE? Bob McConnell N2SPP (*) I am trying out Fedora 11 for several reasons. First, at work we just switched hosting providers which also means we switched our servers from Red Hat to CentOS. After the switch, IT will no longer be managing our external or internal servers. So I need to learn enough about the environment to keep the development and QA servers in sync with the hosted servers. Second, Slackware 13 does not play well with the Intel video chips in most of my Dell computers. i.e. both the live CD and install CD produce unusable configurations even in CLI modes. I have been using Slackware since 1993, when it replaced my original Soft Landing Systems 1.02 system (kernel 0.99pl12). But I have not been happy with many of the recent choices made by that group. These two reasons finally shoved me past the tipping point to begin leaving Slackware. -- 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 have seen some reports that certain hardware types require the Windows bootloader code and if it is overwritten, say by grub, that it puts Windows into repair mode when booting Windows but I have never experienced that issue myself and I would think that you wouldn't either. That's the kind of thing I was worried about, I have had that issue with the Linux installed in the boot sector rather than the partition, but I haven't done Windows recently. You can actually use the Windows bootloader to give you a choice of which to boot instead of grub if you wish - not really that big of a deal and there are many examples found easily with Google. But if you have a Linux rescue boot disk (i.e. the installation DVD), it's rather trivial to boot into rescue mode, chroot to /mnt/sysimage and then 'grub-install /dev/sda' to reset the mbr for grub again, but then you would have to create a grub entry for booting Windows - I have sample at bottom). Thanks, as noted I've set up the chain loader installing after Windows was in, but I never did it this way before. I even have examples of doing dual boot with LILO from back in the old days, although I don't ever expect to reuse them.

That's not happening here, I'll be adding Windows to an existing system. I had WinXP installed in a PC, then installed F11. Clean setup. Later decided to wipe the F11 and used the WinXP Repair feature to rewrite the Windows MBR and the system would go back to Windows only. Once Win MBR was intalled and if I decided not to erase the F11 setup, then I'd reinstall GRUB to be back to dual boot. You can change the boot with Win MBR by diddling the active/boot bit with fdisk (or could), but grub is cleaner. There's a Win boot manager, I haven't used it, and I think the M/B has a boot manager in the BIOS, which might be my way out if things go badly. ;-) Thanks for the thought. -- 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

Also, make sure that the ports have been opened in iptables so they can get through.

Dual display with Fedora 11
I have a small Acer desktop with two video connectors. The onboard chip is an Nvidia GF7100 with a VGA connector. The addin PCIe board has an Nvidia G100 with an HDMI connector. I have identical monitors attached to both connectors. The Windows which came with the box has no trouble automatically recognizing and using both monitors. Of course, that is of no interest to me except to verify the hardware is working and connected properly. I want both monitors to work with Fedora 11. My installation has Gnome, KDE, and XFce4. None of them seem to recognize that the box even has a second video interface. The monitor they use is the one attached to the addin board but the one that system-config-display reports under hardware/video card is the GF7100. Selecting use dual head and then second video card shows only . lshw reports both video adapters. It shows GF7100 for the onboard chip but only shows the PCI numbers for the G100, not the name. I have tried manual editing of xorg.conf. Now system-config-display says it is running in dual head mode but still doesn't show a second display adapter. And the second display is still dark. I have selected the nvidia driver for the GF7100 but vesa for the G100. The nvidia driver doesn't seem to recognize the G100 and X refuses to start if I try to use it.

Re: Preventing ConsoleKit from interrupting audio when switching consoles.
On Tue, 25 Aug 2009, William F. Acker WB2FLW +1 303 722 7209 wrote: Hi all, I use speech output for reading the screen. Currently, I'm using espeak compiled to use portaudio. Whenever I switch consoles, I have to wait a few seconds for audio output to resume. I understand that ConsoleKit is responsible for the delay while it figures out if I'm the same user and should be allowed to use the audio device. If anyone knows how to disable this behavior, or knows fore sure that ConsoleKit can't be configured to accomplish this, I'd really like to hear about it. With respect, what I don't need to hear about is how desirable folks think the current behavior is and how I should learn to love it too. Pulseaudio won't help either, until it can be made to run system-wide. TIA. -- Bill in Denver For anyone who runs into this in the future, I found a clumsy workaround. After logging into all the consoles and the GUI, one can just do: killall console-kit-daemon. Something restarts it, but without the ugly behavior. If a console is accidentally logged out of and then logged back in, it's just necessary to re-kill the troublesome daemon. Hope this helps someone. -- Bill in Denver -- 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

It is currently built on a Fedora 8 PC that I have but we'd like to move to Fedora 11 or 12. What I'd like to do is put the Fedora 11 RPMs on our server, run createrepo to create a repository, and use livecd-creator on that server to build the Fedora 11 LiveCD. Is this approach possible? Are there any gotchas I need to be aware of if it is possible? The LiveCD is a 32-bit implementation BTW. You will run into a SquashFS major version bump incompatible between Fedora on the live media and CentOS on the server.
