 Subject: Makefile for lib64 libraries
 
 I have just upgraded to 64-bit Fedora, and have a mysql appliation
 where the build fails with:
 
 /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lmysqlclient
 
 I know that this is because the library is in lib64, and my Makefile.am
 contains:
 
 bin_PROGRAMS = scraperes
 scraperes_SOURCES = main.cpp ...
 AM_CPPFLAGS = -I/usr/include/mysql
 AM_LDFLAGS = -L/usr/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient
 
 I know I can edit this to have lib64, but what can I do to make it work
 for both 64-bit and 32-bit operating systems?

Here's one way to do it:

LBITS := $(shell getconf LONG_BIT)
ifeq ($(LBITS),64)
   AM_LDFLAGS = -L/usr/lib64/mysql -lmysqlclient
else
   AM_LDFLAGS = -L/usr/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient
Endif

 Dear all
 
 I'm Using Dell Vostro 1520 Laptop  and have installed Fedora Core
 12
 x86_64 .. my problem is like that if laptop runs on battery power it
 works fine , as soon as I connect AC adopter to charge the battery
 laptop hangs after 10 to 15 minutes
 
 what could be the wrong ???

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?

 Subject: F12 and system-config-display on nvidia fx5200
 
 Hi,
 
 In previous Fedora versions I was successfully using kmod-nvidia-173xx
 (from rpmfusion-nfree) together with my fx5200 video card. 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.
 
 Kind regards

You could run nvidia-settings

Dependency problems in latest kmod update

2009-11-30 Thread Rajan, S. (Sanya)
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?

You could parse the output of lsof. A script such as the one at

 can do that for you.

RE: VLC + Screensaver

2009-11-25 Thread Rajan, S. (Sanya)
Hi Julian,

I installed xscreensaver instead of gnome-screensaver and that seems to have 
solved the problem for me.

I believe it has to do with gnome-screensaver-command --poke' not working 
properly, but I didn't look too far into the issue...

 I press apply when finished and everything is OK. The dialog is closed.
 Now how can I activate this VPN connection ?

 Are you using NetworkManager, and if so do you have the NetworkManager
 applet on your toolbar? If so, click on the applet, and under the VPN
 Connections menu, click on VPN1.

Hi François,

You could try using Tovid: http://tovid.wikia.com/wiki/Tovid_Wiki
It can convert almost any video format and create a DVD from them.

Hi,

The libtommath package is available in the repository:

Loaded plugins: presto, refresh-packagekit, remove-with-leaves
Available Packages
libtommath.i686   0.41-10.fc12fedora

What error message do you get when compiling clit? The alternative is to use 
the windows binary (from http://convertlit.com/download.php) and run it under 
wine.

RE: what's with that trailing . for the mode from ls -l

2009-11-12 Thread Rajan, S. (Sanya)
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
'.' (dot) ordinary SELinux context only
'+' (plus) SELinux ACLs or other things beyond ordinary context

 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?
