Lost background pixmaps after closing a nautilus window in GNOME [F12]
Hi all, changing the background pixmaps of a desktop nautilus window by edit-backgrounds and emblems will be lost after the nautilus window has been closed and reopened. In F11, the changed background pixmaps were persistent. I'm doing something wrong?

The solution is to use the vesa driver, which is much faster on my ATI machine (2xlaptops, 2xdesktops). Also doesn't crash.

f12 audio video issues

According to the gtkpod Help doc (under Troubleshooting) the iPhone and iPod Touch can only be accessed via sshfs, meaning you have to jailbreak them. Somewhat OT: I recently bought a Pay-And-Go iPhone from O2 in the UK and was delighted to find that they will unlock it on payment of a fee (15 pounds). This appears to be in response to competition from Vodaphone and Orange, which recently started selling iPhones. Since my main motivation for unlocking was to use other Sim cards, I'll probably avoid the jailbreak route for now and use MediaMonkey under a VM to transfer my media content. On my netbook it's fast and functional where iTunes is molasses slow and bloated. Of course you can't use it for a full sync, but that wasn't the question. poc -- 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

Somewhat OT: I recently bought a Pay-And-Go iPhone from O2 in the UK and was delighted to find that they will unlock it on payment of a fee (15 pounds). This appears to be in response to competition from Vodaphone and Orange, which recently started selling iPhones. Since my main motivation for unlocking was to use other Sim cards, I'll probably avoid the jailbreak route for now and use MediaMonkey under a VM to transfer my media content. On my netbook it's fast and functional where iTunes is molasses slow and bloated. Of course you can't use it for a full sync, but that wasn't the question. just a point of reference... I actually use my Windows computer with iTunes to manage my iPod instead of using Linux and use Media Monkey (nice program btw) to manage artwork/idtags and use ITDB (iTunes Data Base) to clue iTunes into the changes made by Media Monkey (I'm obsessive but I have a lot of CD's). For some reason that I have never spent any time trying to figure out, iTunes is extremely slow to sync mp3 files but very fast to sync m4a files. I wouldn't have known this except that my daughter gave me a few mp3 files which I was watching when they were syncing and I was shocked at the speed difference. If you 'convert' them to m4a, they will get loaded very fast. I suspect that Apple does some mini-conversion to mp3 files when it puts them on an iPod.

Re: ati drivers f12

Am I right, or did I miss something? fglrx has been renamed catalyst, and support was dropped for a large number of older cards (your x1200 and my Mobility X1600 included) in the newest version. I know that the nVidia drivers are supported with at least 3 legacy versions, but I haven't been able to find anyone supporting the legacy version of fglrx on the newer kernels, which makes it pretty much worthless (I had no problems with it on F9, but it does not exist for F11 either). Try and see if the radeon or radeonhd driver picks up the slack for you. They are free open-source drivers and might surprise you. I am running the radeon driver on my laptop, and the only thing it lacks is sufficient support to run googleearth properly (trying to run googleearth with the radeon driver on my hardware locks up machine, solid). The last time I tried the radeonhd driver, it did not yet have support for 3D for my Mobility X1600but that was a while ago. Thanks for answering. -- Kevin J.

You can try modifying the driver options in /etc/X11/xorg.conf. The F12 release notes in a section under ATI give some possible options to try.

login session timeout on F12

In gnome, look at system-settings-screen saver or about (here, in german: System-Einstellungen-Bildschirmschoner). I use F11, but that is the place for many releases, I would guess in F12 too.

Preupgrade F11 - F12 Not Working
Tried this a few times last night with no luck. Did a preupgrade and rebooted. It says starting installation then immediately switches to post-installation tasks it reboots and I'm back in F11. It looks to me as though it is not downloading the updates given that the whole thing takes about five minutes total. I also ran it in the GUI but via the commandline and the last part seemed a bit suspicious. It said 500MB needed and then listed /usr as having about 13 GB and /boot as having I forget exactly how much, but it was more than was needed for the kernel. My /boot directory has 244 MB. I also tried the trick where you fill up /boot with garbage and have it download the installer upon reboot. That also failed. Although, this time it ran enough to where I could hit next and tell it to upgrade and update GRUB. It's hard to see what's going on because when it's done installing the upgrade it reboots. But I switched to one of the virtual terminals (F3, I think) and it appears to be having problems finding sda1. Any ideas? I'd like to upgrade to F12 to get the latest software. A full reinstall is my absolute last option. I thought about doing a yum upgrade, which I've done in the past (although not on this machine which successfully preupgraded from F10 to F11), but figured that if preupgrade is having problems with sda1, perhaps if yum upgrade can't find it, I'll end up with a hosed system.

In my view, by far the best option is to install F-12 on another partition, if you have one. (With the enormous disks in use today, this must be the usual situation.) And in my experience, the easiest way to install is to run the KDE Live CD (or probably the other Live CD), perhaps on a memory stick, and then click on the Install on Hard Disk (and choose Custom Install to avoid the crazy default installation). The trouble with preupgrade is that if it doesn't work, which is all too likely, it leaves the machine in a halfway state. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland -- 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

Re: F12 Rkhunter, Have I a rootkit?
Hm. I think that telling someone to ignore a message like this would be like telling people hey there is a pandemia, but just ignore it. Either there is a warning for a potential danger (if there is really a danger) or there is no danger (and there should be no warning). Otherwise, in the future, such warnings go unheard even if there is a real danger. Just my psychological bit of conclusion drawn from the current pandemia hysteria...

F12 installation making system won't boot

Here is my hard drive layout ; 1st partition primary active for XP. the rest of hard drive is extended partition in following order; Windows 7, F12 /boot,F12 swap, F12 / all in ext3, and the grub was put in mbr of hard drive.

F12 installation ruins booting partition where Windows dual booting
This computer has Windows 7 and XP dual boot, the XP in first partition C:\ (Primary, active), Windows 7 in first of extended partition, prior to Fedora 12 installation I made an image of XP c:\ with True Image, then I started F12 installation and everything seamed going well, finally the F12 finished and to reboot, after the BIOS process and then the system got stuck: only the cursor blinking a top left, entire screen is black, and that's it, can't go any further. The entire hard drive was arranged like this: First partition is primary and active where XP resided, then the rest of drive is extended, first logical partition is Windows 7, 2nd logical is /boot for F12, then 3rd logical partition is f12 swap, 4th logical is F12 /. So I used the XP image file that I made before F12 installation and recovered the XP back into primary partition, then rebooted the system, this time the Grub is booting up and let me finish the last part of the F12 installation, the system finally dual boot with Windows. Can any one tell me what happened? Looks like the F12 installation had altered the original primary partition that even grub can't boot up from it.-- 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
running *only* NFSv4 on f12 produces rpc.mountd error
i'm currently still messing with various bits of NFS on f12, and i wanted to see if i could properly run *only* NFSv4 (that is, no support for any earlier version of NFS), so some questions. first, is there a short way to examine what versions are supported by a running nfsd? i'm *guessing* that i can see that via rpcinfo -p: ... 132 tcp 2049 nfs 133 tcp 2049 nfs 134 tcp 2049 nfs 132 udp 2049 nfs 133 udp 2049 nfs 134 udp 2049 nfs ... is that what i'm being shown above? that i currently have support for versions 2, 3 and 4?is there no simpler way to query a running nfsd for that info? but here's where it gets trickier. from here (which i assume is relevant): http://www.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/5.4/html/Deployment_Guide/ch-nfs.html i'm told that, under NFSv4, there is no need for any of rpc.mountd, rpc.lockd or rpc.statd (as i read it, all this functionality has been moved into the kernel with NFSv4). so i can see how to disable support for all earlier versions of nfs in /etc/sysconfig/nfs: # # Define which protocol versions mountd # will advertise. The values are no or yes # with yes being the default #MOUNTD_NFS_V1=no #MOUNTD_NFS_V2=no #MOUNTD_NFS_V3=no ... so i uncomment all those lines to (allegedly) disable all earlier version support and: # service nfs restart Shutting down NFS mountd: [ OK ] Shutting down NFS daemon: [ OK ] Shutting down NFS quotas: [ OK ] Shutting down NFS services:[ OK ] Starting NFS services: [ OK ] Starting NFS quotas: [ OK ] Starting NFS daemon: [ OK ] Starting NFS mountd: Usage: rpc.mountd [-F|--foreground] [-h|--help] [-v|--version] [-d kind|--debug kind] [-o num|--descriptors num] [-f exports-file|--exports-file=file] [-p|--port port] [-V version|--nfs-version version] [-N version|--no-nfs-version version] [-n|--no-tcp] [-H ha-callout-prog] [-s|--state-directory-path path] [-g|--manage-gids] [-t num|--num-threads=num] [FAILED] # ok, what just happened there? am i not allowed to do what i just tried? and if i explicitly try to run *only* NFSv4, why is rpc.mountd even being invoked? is there something else i need to be doing here? rday -- Robert P.

If not I would consider this a major failing Of course, it wouldn't be of much use otherwise, right? :-) This is why it was written in the first place (among other reasons, like networked audio and such). I would have thought that PulseAudio would, in effect, publish all of the available Alsa audio devices along with default. An application would then connect to default by default which would use the standard PulseAudio configuration but could use any of the other devices including other pulseaudio servers over the network. Each of these devices would be handled by PulseAudio (ie sound would pass through PulseAudio to/from the device in question). Not completely sure, but the way I understand pulseaudio works is that it does *not* publish available Alsa devices to the application. If all the sound passes through the server, there is not much point for the app to know which device is going to be used for playing and recording. The app only sees pulseaudio input and output, and uses that. So which app uses which alsa devices is configured within pulseaudio (using pavucontrol), rather than in the app itself. This is not the question of available functionality, but rather where the controls reside. It is similar to the functionality of an X server --- once a new app is started and it tries to draw its own window on the screen, it is not up to this app to decide where exactly will the window be drawn, but rather it is up to the window manager. It's window may be moved around, minimized, maximized, covered by another one, on this or that desktop, etc., and all this is done transparently, without the app knowing much about it. The same thing is with audio server (of course, it's much simpler due to its nature) --- app talks to pulseaudio and says I want to play something and record something, and the pulseaudio is the one to decide what will be the actual source and sink used for each particular app. So just like when you want to move the window around you give instructions to the window manager and *not* the app itself, so also when you choose this or that audio source/sink you give instructions to pulseaudio and *not* the app itself. Finally, keep in mind that a proper audio server is there to enhance functionality, not to reduce it. :-) HTH, :-) Marko -- 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

The 'broadcom-wl' package gets 'kmod-wl' as a dependency, which in turn gets the proper version for your kernel. Installing 'akmod-wl' makes sure that the wireless works with new kernels that don't yet have a matching 'kmod-wl' package. - -- Mika -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAks9E24ACgkQ2+DA4q6pfJFFjACePUDcap9cp7T7QECyEPcIxNx+ qXsAoLEsjA/gsdhGmb8rstCeMfuNZa8L =X4dc -END 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
F12 GNOME panel has big gaps between launchers
I recently made the move from F11 to F12. Application launchers on GNOME panels have much larger gaps between them than they did on F11. I can move the icons by dragging with the middle mouse button, but I cannot get them any closer together. This wastes a lot of space on the panels, and I would really like to get them closer together like they were in F11. Is this an intentional change, or is something messed up on my system? I did a fresh install of F12, not an upgrade, and I have tested with a new user. I've attached a screenshot of part of a panel in both F11 and F12 to illustrate. I'm not sure if the list will allow attachments, if not I will upload it somewhere and post a link.

There were a lot of forums/mailing lists that listed the same problem but no solutions were offered. A lot of things were hinted at nobody had a general solution. Most of the suggestions revolved around access permissions of the actual files in the repository and its path. That did not affect my problem. Two facts lead me to the final solution: 1) svn checkout file:///[repo path] [sandbox path] worked while svn checkout http://localhost/[repo URI] [sandbox path] did not. This lead me to believe that I had created my Subversion repository correctly and that the problem was probably with my Apache configuration or Linux filesystem access permissions. 2) When I ran the checkout command using the http URL, the Apache access log showed multiple requests ran correctly before the 403 Forbidden occurred. Plus, the request that received the 403 status was the third request for the same data. The content of the all three requests were identical with the exception of IP headers (counters and times differ). So what could be the problem that allowed the first two PROPFIND requests to succeed while rejecting the third identical request. The answer: mod_evasive (mod_evasive20.so in my case). The evasive module is designed to stop denial of service attacks. It works by tracking how many times the same request comes in from the same IP address in a configurable interval. In the case of the default settings the threshold was set to 2 requests/IP Address/1 second interval. This allowed the first two PROPFIND requests to the same path to succeed

F12, GRUB, and dual booting irritation
Who was the genius that changed the GRUB config updating process? Up until now, whenever a new kernel update came a long, GRUB's configuration file would remain basically the same, which would mean I didn't have to go in and manually set GRUB to boot to my Windows partition by default every single time. The Windows boot line(s) would stay neatly at the bottom of the file, and the default= line always pointed to 3 (if I remember correctly). Now under Fedora 12, every update screws that up, by setting the default to 0. Now, I thought I had a solution after the previous kernel update: move my Windows boot configuration to the start of the boot configuration list, so it would be item 0, but the latest kernel update proved that this wasn't a solution either: the new kernel boot config is now at position 0, followed by Windows, then another two Fedora kernels...
