ASF format ??

[Jim]

I recieved a Video that says it's a .wmv file but Linux Properties says 
it is a ASF format.
I have tried to play it with VLC, Xine, Mplayer but there is a codec 
problem.

They all play the Audio of the file but not the Video.

Using Mplayer, I get this error message.
The playback of this movie requires a video/x-asf-unknown decoder plugin 
which is not installed.

Cairo-dock kills my Box

[jim]

FC12/KDE

I had cairo-dock installed, but I removed it and now I got problems  
with libcairo.so.2 .


I got problems with Firefox, How do I get XPCOM to load.

1.
$Firefox
Couldn't load XPCOM.



2.
Thunderbird won't start because of libcairo.so.2 , I did a 'locate' on  
libcairo.so.2 but it doesn't show it as installed.


[mic...@acer64 ~]$ thunderbird
/usr/lib64/thunderbird-3.0/thunderbird-bin: error while loading shared 
libraries: libcairo.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file 
or directory


3.
Yumex won't run because of libcairo.so.2 as you can see.

[mic...@acer64 ~]$ yumex
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/yumex/yumex.py", line 25, in 
from yumexgui import YumexApplication
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/yumexgui/__init__.py", line 
27, in 

import gtk
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk/__init__.py", 
line 40, in 

from gtk import _gtk
ImportError: libcairo.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file 
or directory


How do I get rid of this libcairo.so.2 problem and XPCOM not loading ?

  CMP
   A minimum required CMake version must be specified.

   CMake requires that projects specify the version of CMake to which
   they have been written.  This policy has been put in place so users
   trying to build the project may be told when they need to update 
their
   CMake.  Specifying a version also helps the project build with 
CMake

   versions newer than that specified.  Use the cmake_minimum_required
   command at the top of your main CMakeLists.txt file:

 cmake_minimum_required(VERSION .)

   where "." is the version of CMake you want to support
   (such as "2.6").  The command will ensure that at least the given
   version of CMake is running and help newer versions be 
compatible with
   the project.  See documentation of cmake_minimum_required for 
details.


   Note that the command invocation must appear in the CMakeLists.txt
   file itself; a call in an included file is not sufficient.  However,
   the cmake_policy command may be called to set policy CMP to 
OLD or
   NEW behavior explicitly.  The OLD behavior is to silently ignore 
the
   missing invocation.  The NEW behavior is to issue an error 
instead of
   a warning.  An included file may set CMP explicitly to 
affect how

   this policy is enforced for the main CMakeLists.txt file.

   This policy was introduced in CMake version 2.6.0.

I think it would be better if you could provide us with more 
information. Try to run vlc from a terminal, try with other media 
players. Look in dmesg for clues when you insert a DVD, maybe your 
problem is not with the media players.

My system is 64-bit, also: AMD dual booting F9&  12.  I installed F12 a couple 
weeks ago, but only got around to installing (using yum) VLC and libdvdcss, both 
64-bit, a few days ago.  I tested VLC using a commercial movie DVD (CHICAGO, if you 
are wondering), and it worked fine.  It also worked with a few other movies I had.  
However, I remember reading quite some time ago, that some DVDs have proprietary 
encryption/encoding/whatever to prevent copying, etc. and those require a DVD 
player that is set up with that proprietary key to play.  All contemporary players 
are so outfitted.  Older ones aren't.  And, of course, this proprietary feature is 
not available to the general public.  So, no way to play the DVD on your computer.

This may not be your problem, but it is something to consider.

How did you install VLC?  If you didn't use yum or an equivalent package 
manager, you may not have gotten the dependent libraries, etc.  My new, but 
fully updated F12 set up didn't have all the necessary dependencies when I 
installed VLC.  So, check.

A very good PCI Wireless card for Fedora/Linux

[Jim]

Sabrent 802.11N PCI-802N , two antennas,

When I purchased this card it drove me crazy determining which Linux 
driver that was for this card.


RT2860sta driver, I have it in a bedroom in a PC that couldn't get a 
100% signal to it from a Linksys router, but with this card it gave me a 
100% signal. And it doesn't shut down.


Copy and Paste the model above into Google search and find locations 
that sell it.


I don't have any connections to anyone that make or sell it, I just want 
to pass on to the info to Fedora/Linux users that have need of a PCI 
wireless card.

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: package-cleanup --problems
package-cleanup --dupes
rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

   Yumex asks for a password, churns for a minute or so doing what it

   gone, just the terminal from which I opened it leaving the following

   This looks like a problem with F-12 or yumex.

   I can survive without it but it helps in setting up new installs
   since it provides extensive applications lists, a help to me.

   Does anyone have a solution or do I just have to wait 'til it's

you need to remove the ;

gtk2-immodule-xim-2.18.5-3.fc12

This package is causing Yumex to crash.

Altough "yum update" works, I need yumex.

Chances are that whoever sent you that file sent it with the wrong MIME
type descriptor.  The sending client describes the type of file, and the
receiving client passes that file off to the default application for
that type of file.  If the *type* is not correctly outlined, then the
whole system fails to work.

Most likely, it was described as application/octet-stream which means
"this is some unknown kind of binary file, figure out how to handle this
by yourself."  If you try to set up your system to believe that all such
unidentified files are word documents, by default, then you're setting
yourself up for failure with the next NON word document that's sent with
the *unknown* *binary* file type description.

I have the same problem with playing .wmv files in Thunderbird . the 
/edit/pref./attachments has VLC set to play .wmv files, but some .wmv

I think it has to do with Mime Types.
I get this one person that has a XP computer sends me .jpg pictures and 
I can never see them, unless I save them.
The Content Type is set to something different than a .jpg content and 
Thunderbird doesn't understand that Content Type.

If what you say is that you can get some websites but not others ??

You may have a IPV6 problem.

If you use KDE see if Konqueror has the same problem as Firefox.

If you have problems with Konqueror or performing a rpm -ivh http:// *
follow all of the instructions.
1.  Q: Networking (or DNS) seems really slow and fails often (Updated 2 January 
2009)
A: If Fedora 10's networking seems slow or you get frequent network connection 
failures (when other Fedoras or other OSes were working just fine on your 
machine), then you're probably hitting this bug.

Here's how you can work around it:

   1. Open a Terminal.
   2. Become root:

  su -
   3. Make sure that the "dnsmasq" program is installed (it usually is, by 
default, in Fedora 10):

  rpm -q dnsmasq

  If that says "package dnsmasq is not installed", then you need to install 
dnsmasq, by running the following command:

  yum install dnsmasq
   4. Now, you have to find out which network interface your machine is using:

  route -n

  You'll see some output that looks like this:

  Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 192.168.1.0 
0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 1 0 0 eth0 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0

  The eth0 there (the furthest bottom-right text in the output) is the name 
of the network interface I'm using. Yours might be eth1 or something totally 
different. Just remember it for the next step.
   5. Now create a file called /etc/dhclient-.conf. For 
example, if your network interface is eth0, the file would be called 
/etc/dhclient-eth0.conf.

  You can create the file with this command (assuming your network 
interface is eth0):

  nano /etc/dhclient-eth0.conf

  Then make this the only line in the file:

  prepend domain-name-servers 127.0.0.1;

  And then save the file and close it (Ctrl-X then Y).

  If you have both a wireless and a wired network connection, you will have 
to do this step once for each of them.
   6. Now start dnsmasq:

  service dnsmasq start

  And make sure that it will start every time your computer starts:

  chkconfig dnsmasq on
   7. Now restart your network connection:

  service NetworkManager restart

And now things should be as fast as normal again. You might have to restart the 
programs that you're running for them to pick up the changes that 
NetworkManager made when it restarted.



2.  * IPv6
You might notice that your browsing through Firefox is a little slow on Fedora 
10. This is because Firefox 3 has enabled by default IPv6 which causes Firefox 
to first resolve an IPv6 address and after the connection fails it switches to 
IPv4. To change this setting type:

about:config


and in Filter box type:

network.dns.disableIPv6


Right click on it, select Toggle and change its value to true. Restart Firefox 
and you are ready!

This is something that I had to do in Firefox and it's the only way of get to 
some websites.

This has been a ongoing problem in Fedora for the last three releases and it 
has been BugZilled But it's not getting fixed.

I have attached instructions on how I overcome this problem in Fedora, but I 
don't have to do it in every Fedora Installation , just some boxes.


1.  Q: Networking (or DNS) seems really slow and fails often (Updated 2 January 
2009)
A: If Fedora 10's networking seems slow or you get frequent network connection 
failures (when other Fedoras or other OSes were working just fine on your 
machine), then you're probably hitting this bug.

Here's how you can work around it:

   1. Open a Terminal.
   2. Become root:

  su -
   3. Make sure that the "dnsmasq" program is installed (it usually is, by 
default, in Fedora 10):

  rpm -q dnsmasq

  If that says "package dnsmasq is not installed", then you need to install 
dnsmasq, by running the following command:

  yum install dnsmasq
   4. Now, you have to find out which network interface your machine is using:

  route -n

  You'll see some output that looks like this:

  Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 192.168.1.0 
0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 1 0 0 eth0 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0

  The eth0 there (the furthest bottom-right text in the output) is the name 
of the network interface I'm using. Yours might be eth1 or something totally 
different. Just remember it for the next step.
   5. Now create a file called /etc/dhclient-.conf. For 
example, if your network interface is eth0, the file would be called 
/etc/dhclient-eth0.conf.

  You can create the file with this command (assuming your network 
interface is eth0):

  nano /etc/dhclient-eth0.conf

  Then make this the only line in the file:

  prepend domain-name-servers 127.0.0.1;

  And then save the file and close it (Ctrl-X then Y).

  If you have both a wireless and a wired network connection, you will have 
to do this step once for each of them.
   6. Now start dnsmasq:

  service dnsmasq start

  And make sure that it will start every time your computer starts:

  chkconfig dnsmasq on
   7. Now restart your network connection:

  service NetworkManager restart

And now things should be as fast as normal again. You might have to restart the 
programs that you're running for them to pick up the changes that 
NetworkManager made when it restarted.

Hi Jim!

If I were you I would open a shell, obtain root privilege, use mount
to see where the SD card is mounted, navigate to that point and use ls
-a -l to poke around and see what is up.

 

No need to become root. The card should be mounted with permissions
that let the console user access it. At least it is in Gnome. I can
normally just double-click on the icon and have it open the SD card.
I have also used mc from a terminal window to access the files on
the card.

What puzzels me is how do you know where the Application was called from.

Is there a command you can run like tail -f or what ever, to see where a

Running a application that  I can tell where it is  started or run from.
Like when I plug in a SD card what and where is it started from.

I know this Question sounds confusing , but I'm not really sure how to

If you have sshd running in Services on both boxes, and a .ssh folder in 
your home directory, and a file inside that folder called "known_hosts" 
(w/o quotes) .

And be sure on both boxes that "known_hosts" be cleared.
SSH will run in User Mode between both boxes, and that I'm positive of.

Go into network configuration (system-config-network). Open the 
properties tab for your network device. If "Enable IPv6 configuration 
for this device" is checked, turn it off.


In FC12 system-config-network there is no Properties Tab, If you go to 
Device Tab and Edit there is a box to be checked for IPV6, and it isn't 
checked for eth0.


This box is run on a WUSB54GC dongle and there is no Device tab for Wlan0 .

you are being incredibly vague.

I just got the same phone and plugged it into my USB and it listed all

necessary...

if what you want is to be able to transfer files from you Linux system
to the SD card on the Motorola Android, you need to 'allow' it on the
Android by tapping the USB symbol in the status bar once you have
connected it to your computer and choosing 'Mount'  If you don't choose
'Mount' - it only will charge your phone but will not allow a computer
to access the storage

Grub ??

[Jim]

FC 11

We have two Linux distros installed on one hard drive.

How do I in fedora tell grub to show both  Distros on the Boot Menu at 
boot start up so I may select select one of two at Boot start.
If I do a  grub-install /dev/hda from Fedora it will only show the 
Fedora Kernels at Boot Menu and not the other Linux OS.


And what is even worse is if the other Distro does a Kernel update it's 
not shown in the Boot menu at start up.



I know I could tell yum.conf not to update kernels, but I don't want that.

I'm using Mint as second Distro. and at boot startup Mint in it's boot 
Menu does not give you the "apend" (a) feature but Fedora does.

new install, Firewall, anti-virus?

[Jim Douglas]

I just trashed Windows 7 and installed FC11 but before I connect to the 
internet how best could I protect the machine?

Is the firewall up and running by default effective? It's a home machine but I 
plan on adding a web server.

What is the best anti-virus?

(Bye, bye windows!)

Thanks,
Jim

Re: Executing ImageMagick

[Jim]

If it's a command line tool, then  "imagemagick" isn't the execute 
command, because it won't execute. What would the command be ?


 And the ImageMagick RPM is installed.

You could install the original grub instead of the grub 2, from ubuntu

Re: grub 2: "error: You need to load the kernel first"

[Jim van Wel]

And, you can try installing the fedora grub-0.97-51, which means you are
overwriting the ubuntu grub 2. It should work, as it's only used for
booting, but grub 2 is also little new to me. You got yourself a
interesting problem :)

Re: grub 2: "error: You need to load the kernel first"

[Jim van Wel]

Hi there,

With fedora, you normally point to the kernel directive. Like this:

kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.30.9-90.fc11.x86_64 ro
root=/dev/mapper/vg_coolzeropc-lv_root rhgb quiet

Here a full example:

title Fedora (2.6.30.9-90.fc11.x86_64)
root (hd0,1)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.30.9-90.fc11.x86_64 ro
root=/dev/mapper/vg_coolzeropc-lv_root rhgb quiet vga=0x31B
initrd /initrd-2.6.30.9-90.fc11.x86_64.img

This should work without problems. Of course, you need to set the
root=/dev/mapper/whatever to your suitable settings. Good luck!

Greetings,
Jim.

Where is V4L

[Jim]

Fc11

I must be missing something, but has V4L (video4Linux) changed it's name ?

I can't find it under the V4L name.

Well on this system I go right to the menu about

I have tried various combinations of F1, F2, F3 at that startup

Am I going to have to use a USB CD drive to trick it?

I have no problem with either the F11 net-install CD or DVD. Which one
of the ISO images (Live-CD, CD-disc 1, net-install, or DVD) did you
use?


It is the FC11 CD 1 that I downloaded back in August.

I hit tab, got the prompt for the image load (don't have it in front 
of me, so I don't have exact details), entered:


askmethod


and pressed  and it went on its merry way, not asking for any 
method


I can try again... 


And this time it 'worked'.

Now I have to figure out how to deal with the small screen that the

It seems in the past month brute force attacks are on the rise. They are
targeting anyone listening on port 22 and go after root. If you do not
have a hardened box, you will see thousands upon thousands of
connections in your logs. Once logged in they will set your system up in
their botnet.

This little baby will get placed in /tmp and will be running. Looks to
be a SSH gateway for the attackers for easy access/control.

-Make sure your root password is not a dictionary word.
-Add iptables rules to limit multiple connections on SSH to 4 within a
minute.[1] Perhaps this needs to become a Fedora default.

   

Once within 3 minutes is entirely practical and effective. In the last
two days a pair of dolts kept trying 6621 times and 2185 times after the
door slammed shut in their faces. Their ISPs have been notified.

-Use SELinux.

Why am I sending this message? Is it SPAM? No. I've seen this hit a
customer and cause an explosion in their network traffic. The backdoor
was installed on Sept. 30th and was not detected until recently. Google
results seem to indicate this past month with higher than normal brute

I love those rules and have been spreading them around for quite some
time now. I am glad to see somebody else has either adopted or discovered
the rule trick. It is devastatingly effective. Guessing a password as
simple as "mE3" would take decades of attempts. (Now I want to configure

But you can use spec (chromium.spec, v8.spec) files to rebuild your

Why doesn't Selinux do the proper relabling during when it does

Because the policy doesn't know what ruddy files were installed by the
Samsung driver.  There is no way for the distro to predict what a third-
party package is going to install.

The better question would be "why doesn't Samsung set the proper SELinux
context for the files it installs?"  THEY know what files they're
stuffing in, so their installer should set the proper contexts.  I've
been bitten by this Samsung thing, too (I have a CLP-300 color laser).
I've also sent them a courteous note regarding this issue.

Strange happenings in Thunderbird-3.0-2.7.b4.fc11

Thunderbird 3.0-2.7.b4.fc11 has strange problems going on.
My friends are calling me and telling me that Mouse won't work ,  can't 
send email

on SMTP server, loosing delete Icons etc.

On the first two I had them move .thunderbird into /Download, temp, and 
uninstall Thunderbird and reinstall and moving old .thunderbird back 
into /home/user and every work normal again.


As far as loosing Delete, Forward icons at top of thunderbird, I just 
right click where Icons were and replace missing icons.


Anybody experiencing any problems like this ??

I guess that's what you can expect with a Beta version.

Do you get access to a Windows XP Firewall through the Control Panel ?

Does the print server support both lpd and ipp? Do you have the
correct print queue? The queue names may be different for lpd then
for ipp.

I'm using lpd:// .
I have my home cups network printer setup that way and I can print 
without any problems. I'm using a 2Wire 1800HW router. Samsung CLX3175FN 
Printer.


But I have a friend with the same settings using a Linksys WRT54GS 
router and I can ping the Printer from a Linux (cups) and windows XP.  
But it won't allow either computer to send and print from a Samsung 
CLX3175FN.


Called Linksys, as usual there is nothing wrong with their router.

As far as I know USB doesn't support this mode of operation.  There can
be only one master, ie PC connected to a hub.

What you could do is connect the printer to one computer and then share
it over the network or use a USB printer server that has a USB port on
it.

I have two boxes setup on that configuration and they are printing fine 
, wth a
2Wire783  router, but if I replace the router with a Linksys WRT54G the 
computers cannot commuicate with the printer.


But if I ping the printer at 192.168.1.102 ( that is where it is on the 
Linksys)
I can get a network connection, But I can't print from the two boxes, 
cups can't

connect to printer.

I called Linksys and they say there is no problem with their router.

I think I may be having the same (or similar problem). I've been
running F11 on my desktop since shortly after release but my wife as
been running F10 until just recently, however the problem seemed to be
present for her on both F10 and F11. She was using auto-discovered
printer queues for a while but at some point they just disappeared so
I manually configured my printer (over IPP). After upgrading her
(actually fresh install) to F11 and opening up the firewall
auto-discover once again worked (for a day or two), then just
yesterday she tried to print and all the printer queues were gone
again.

My network is a simple home network, all one subnet (192.168.0.X) She
is working over wireless on a laptop but that shouldn't matter. She
does not sleep/hibernate her laptop as it doesn't work well so that
shouldn't be causing any issues.

I can provide more config info but nothing was changed by me or my
wife from the time it was working to the time it stopped.

Put it just after the "Device Section"

SELinux is preventing hp (hplip_t) "name_bind" howl_port_t.

lpstat -t shows

to

hp:/net/HP_Color_laserjet_2605dn?ip=192.168.10.71

then the alerts go away.

The printer is an HP printer and was configured using hp-setup.

I guess the question is why does the hplip want to listen on the Multicast DNS 
port.  If this is supposed to happen, we need to add it to policy.

You can add it for now using audit2allow

# grep hplip_t /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M myhplip
# semodule -i myhplip.pp

   
I have a problem with DNS in FC11, FC12 and in a file  
/etc/dhclient-eth0.conf   I have the line;


prepend domain-name-servers 127.0.0.1;

And DNSmasq is enabled.


And in Firefox config I have;

network.dns.disableIPv6

Please file a bug against HPLIP.  The reason it wants to do that is that
it is trying to resolve an mDNS name.  What it ought to do, of course,
is ask avahi to do that.

Check your firewall settings for Port 631 tcp/udb ?


What setting do you put in Properties for a ipp:// setup ?

No matter What I put in it won't accept the settings.

I have a Laptop setup for Network printing on FC11 ;

And it prints to this same printer without any Firewall changes.

Why can't I get a PC with FC11-i386 to do the same with the same Driver.

Interesting. How did you install Fedora in the first place?

~af

   
Fedora was installed first, then a second 40gb hard drive for XP was 
installed. . XP previously came on this box. A Dell Dimension 4300 .


A friend that owns this box just had to have Call of Duty 4 , and wine 
wouldn't install it on Fedora because of DirectX.  So I had to put XP 
back on.


Thanks again for your help.

I ran that command from fedora 11 but it still wants to boot from WindowsXP

Are you able to see the GRUB splash image at all when you're booting?
The question is aimed at understanding whether you want to just change the
boot default to Win or F11 or whether you're able to boot to F11 at all.

you need to edit /boot/grub/grub.conf. the line `default=___' should
say `default=1' if F11 is the 2nd entry
on your list.


   

Here is my menu.lst file.
I do have a separate /boot partition  sdb1

Fedora 11 is on sdb
With this menu.lst, I did a,   grub-install  --recheck /dev/sda , and

boot into rescue mode

chroot /mnt/sysimage
