It could be caused by the laptop running at a higher performance level when on AC power, which causes the problem to manifest. Have you tried running memtest while on AC power?

When first installing F12, the nouveau driver was installed for graphics, and no kmod-nvidia-173xx was available. In the meantime kmod-nvidia-173xx became available, and after downloading and installing it I wanted to configure my video card with system-config-display, which fails each time I try to run (see bugzilla, there are a lot of bug reports for system-config-display in F12). Question: is there another way than the usage of system-config-display for configuring my video card for the nidia-173xx driver? All hints are welcome.

Dependency problems in latest kmod update
Hi, When running an update today I ran into this dependency problem: kernel-uname-r = 2.6.31.6-145.fc12.i686.PAE is needed by package kmod-nvidia-2.6.31.6-145.fc12.i686.PAE-190.42-1.fc12.6.i686 (rpmfusion-nonfree-updates-testing) However, I'm running 2.6.31.5-127.fc12.i686.PAE and I don't see the 2.6.31.6 kernel in any of the repos (updates or updates-testing) Is there a new kernel? Or is there a problem with the kmod-nvidia package in updates-testing? Sanya Rajan Nedbank Limited Reg No 1951/09/06.

RE: what's with that trailing . for the mode from ls -l
Hi, Instead of parsing the output of ls you could use the stat command: stat -c %a file Otherwise, you could try removing the ACL from the files (if you can): find . -print0 |xargs -0 -n 1 sudo setfattr -h -x security.selinux Remember that the last character can be: ' ' (blank) no SELinux coverage '.'

Let me google that for you: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=ls+dot+permissions a followup question would be, is there an ls option that would *prevent* that security setting character from being printed? i ask since i'm working with a software project (openembedded) that specifically takes a mode setting in symbolic mode (from the output of ls -l), and uses sed to translate it to numeric mode, and the script to do that doesn't take into account that potential trailing period and promptly converts, say, -rwxr-xr-x. to the string 755., which then causes the subsequent call to install to crash with a bad numeric mode argument. right now, an easy solution is to just manually strip the trailing period in every such case, but it would be easier to replace the invocation of ls with one that just didn't list that period in the first place. i don't see such an option in man ls or info ls. does one exist? rday -- Robert P.
