F8 hasn't been supported for over a year now.

 The logout window will not appear when the logout icon is clicked on.

Which desktop? Gnome? KDE? Other?

 I have to reboot or shutdown using poweroff.

Kill the desktop manager, e.g. (as root) pkill kdm or pkill gdm as

There’s a current thread called “wvdial problem” that you should read:
it seems to be dealing with the same problems. Certainly people seem to
have got dial-up to work with Fedora.

Having said that, note that you may find it difficult to keep Fedora
up-to-date over a dial-up connection: there are a lot of updates, many
of which are security-related. The yum-presto package will transfer them
more efficiently, but you may still want to occasionally plug these
systems into a faster connection (or find some other way of getting
large updates to them).

Hope this helps,

James.

True. Aside from that, RHEL by definition targets the enterprise market.
Centos provides the same bits, but does target a similar business
market, and Fedora targets the consumers, and allows us to do some
testing so that when released, RHEL will be a better product. But, RHEL
does allow Red Hat to employ professionals who do contribute to the
kernel as well as other Linux components which effectively contributes
to making Linux in general better.

Rahul

  
Media formats almost always involve lossy compression  There are reasons 
for selecting one lossy compression scheme over another that are very 
different from considerations of document formatting, which do seem to 
be primarily a way of keeping things proprietary.  Lossy compression is 
still very much a topic of ongoing research.  If someone comes up with a 
clever scheme for lowering the bit count while minimizing the subjective 
loss, that person could reasonably claim it as intellectual property.  
I'm not plugging the proprietary software distribution paradigm, just 
saying.


Of course, media formats are also entangled with digital rights 
management,  which has everything to do with the issues addressed in 
your FAQ.  Generally these work against usability, data efficiency and 
quality. 

I won't touch here the debate over music wanting to be free vs. 
musicians wanting to be paid and the extent to which DRM accomplishes 
the latter, other than to point out that it is frequently and plausibly 
argued that musicians are pretty much the last people DRM protects, if 
at all.

 Unfortunately, the legal approach of Mr Sundaram still

Media codecs are *different* from encodings, xml stuff, and other proprietary 
layers added by Micro$oft to their products like word documents, excel files, 
powerpoint, etc.  

Media codecs are a different animal and not necessarily from Micro$oft alone.  
Thankfully there are many media players that can play them and we have been 
told to install the good, the bad and the ugly and most of them can be played.  
Sadly, not everything works, but this happens not only with Fedora.  A friend 
of mine pokes fun at me because I use Fedora linux and he tells me that nobody 
gives a sh*t about it and that is why it does not get attacked by hackers, 
virii, spyware, adware, trojan horse, ..., etc as much as Micro$oft Windows 
does.  This is hard to swallow, but I tell him that I like Fedora and Linux 
Distros in general and I dont mind the being in the 1% category.  He says 99% 
of the world uses M$ and you are in the rare type that uses Linux.  But I can 
live with that.  
 
 But I'm sure all those who pretended that fedora-list
 wasn't the place to
 hold such a discussion will be happy to join in.

The discussion reminds me of a Bill Parcell's quote:

This conversation is going nowhere, that he made sometime ago and was made 
into a Coors Beer commercial and it can be applied here.  As much as we discuss 
issues like this.  It does not make much of a difference.  I hate to say it, 
but it is true.  Fedora will not go against any laws that are established to 
protect intellectual property like patents, mp3, dvd playback, libdvdcss2, 
flash, ..., etc.  You name it.  Fedora will not deviate from what it has done 
in the past nor I see it happen in the future :)  
 
 As for myself, I'll just suggest another subject for
 reflection. While
 most Fedora supporters here agree with Microsoft that
 market share is
 totally unimportant to Fedora, while Ubuntu LTS is released
 every second
 year and supported for 5 on servers, will Red Hat leave the
 road open to
 former Thawte CEO to get all the user base? Does Red Hat
 really think that
 Fedora users will buy RHEL because they dig GIMP 2.2 so
 much?

Whether they dig GIMP 2.2 does not make a difference as to whether users will 
buy RHEL.  That makes no sense to me and I am sure others.  RHEL is a 
subscription based distro(correct me if I am wrong).  You do not pay for the 
software, you are paying for the services provided by Red Hat.  
 
 I had a fair chance to observe how non-profit organisations
 were run in
 the recent years and I really thought that a company on the
 Stock Exchange
 would be different. Now, I'm beginning to wonder.

Every company is different, but to each their own.  
 
 -- 

Ubuntu LTS is something else and Fedora makes no apparent threat to it.  One is 
free to use whichever version of Linux that is out there.  If you like Ubuntu, 
then go for it.  I am not going to say anything bad about it.  Fedora is just a 
bit different from them.

It does what we tell it to.  We can find out how it works.  We can
change how it works.  We can fix the problems.  We can customise it.
We're not slaves to malware and anti-malware software.  We're not slaves
to lock-in and data kidnapping by proprietary data formats (I've
personally experienced lock-out of data when programs have become
unavailable).  We don't have to pay ten times over to install it on ten
computers.  We don't have to pay ten times over because ten different
people access the same computer.  We don't have systems that
artificially restrict the number of users that can use it at the same
time.  It's a damn sight more reliable...

 Hi Markus,

 2009/8/12 Markus Kesaromous :

 Dear List,
 I searched the ath9k source directory
 /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2.6.29/linux-2.6.29.i586/drivers/net/wireless/ath9k
 for any strings that would hint/suggest support for the Atheros 9220/9223
 chipset. I saw no such strings.

 What strings were you looking for?

 I stated: for any strings that would hint/suggest support for the Atheros 
 9220/9223 (meaning  9220 or 9223 ala   grep '922[0-9]'  *  (within the ath9k 
 directory).


 So, I emailed Atheros.com sales dept. and asked if they intend to provide 
 an open
 source driver for the AR9000 series chipsets, esp. the AR9220/AR9223. They 
 replied that they already DO support the AR92xx chipset in the ath9k driver.

 Before I go out and purchase the mini-pci card, is it true that the ath9k 
 driver
 has ineed been tested to fully support AR9220/AR9223 chipsets??

 Your thought process intrigues me. If you have communication from the
 manufacturer advising it is supported then you have your answer (and a
 waterproof returns policy if they are wrong).

 I have learned never to trust sales people. When it comes to dealing with 
 online

 merchants, what the sales contact at the manufacturer  says will not be 
 sufficient
 reason for return for a full refund,  of a device which turns out to  be 
 unsupported.

Then why contact them?

 My question to you is - why do you have to resort to assuming such a pompous 
 attitude via questions like Your thought process intrigues me.

I'm afraid this is your interpretation.

 There is a fitting description for such attitude, but I will not spam this 
 mailing list with such a vivid description.

Then please reply off-list, as I did.

 Some basic investigation
 on the web will tell you what you need to know:

No really, that's my pleasure.

Ivan there are plenty of people to help you, but you must give as much

That looks promising. If firefox is cacheing a bad dns, then maybe
everything else would work OK except firefox. Maybe, if it cached
a google dns, it would work with the google stuff, which it does,
but not other sites.
However, I also tried dillo, with the same unable to load result.
I had an idea of how to check this. I booted the problem computer
with fc9 Live-CD. (I think that gives me all clean configuration
files) and I had the same problem and gmail still worked.

I have connected the ethernet cable out of the modem to my old
computer ( fc8). I tried to boot, which went OK, except the modem
wasn't found. I then  powered down the modem and the computer,
then powered them both up and booted.
It seems to work fine. (Maybe this computer works on saturdays)
To me, it acts like hardware. Next I think I will try putting in
an old NIC that I have and see what happens.

If he is having problems with reaching some websites and not others it 
is a IPV6 DNS problem in Firefox ,
1. Do a about:config in Firefox URL and where it says filter at top 
put this line  network.dns.disableIPv6   user set  boolean  true

W/O quotes.

And double check down in body that it is entered correctly.


2.  In /etc make a file dhclient-eth0.conf and put in line,
prepend domain-name-servers 127.0.0.1; 
W/o quotes

If you have a eth1 or wlan0 , you will have to make a file for them, 
just change the eth0 to eth1, wlan0, Etc.

Amarok needs xine-lib-extras-freeworld, Audacious needs
audacious-plugins-freeworld-mp3 (or the whole audacious-plugins-freeworld
metapackage if you also want other codecs). You can find both in the RPM
Fusion repository (in the free (as in speech) section).

You're missing the point. The fact that caps should be used sparingly
means that one of their principal uses is for emphasis. Emphasising
everything you say is equivalent to shouting.

You seem to be having quite a tantrum over this, I don't see why.

A point was made about it's considered shouting.  It is.  And by
convention, long before email ever existed, UPPER CASE was used as a
form of emphasis.  

Don't people read books?  

And since the days of e-mail, it's been considered an extreme form of
emphasis (i.e. shouting your message).  It's also considered lazy
typing, and it's also considered ill-educated.

A point's also been made that it isn't actually easier to read upper
case, normal mixed case is easier to read.

Neither point negates the other, they still stand.  This isn't an
either/or situation.

And as far as screaming back, you were one who did that.

 case, normal mixed case is easier to read.
 
 Neither point negates the other, they still stand.  This isn't an
 either/or situation.
 
 And as far as screaming back, you were one who did that.
 
Indeed.So I shall drop it. Though I don't recall anyone commenting on the lack 
of a useful subject line. Do you know anything about how to force secure 
authentication in single user mode with upstart? The recipe I found is to add 
this line to /etc/inittab: ~~:S:wait:/sbin/sulogin  

This does not work in Fedora 10.

2009-04-11 Thread vujsa
Well, after reading a lot of posts about this error, I found that none of the 
suggestions dealt with the read problem...

THE REPOSITORY AT DOWNLOAD.FEDORA.REDHAT.COM IS MISSING!
You can see here: 
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/ [1]

All of the directories there are empty.
So I went looking for another.

A Japanese mirror still has the files:
http://ftp.riken.go.jp/pub/Linux/fedora/core/ [2]

I edited my baseurls to replace this:
download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/

with this:
ftp.riken.go.jp/pub/Linux/fedora/core/ [3]

Now that yum can find a repository, everything works.

To edit...
file browse to /etc/yum.repos.d
open all of the files there in gedit and use the replace function on each file 
and save.

be sure to uncomment the baseurl line (remove the #)

A time may come when we'll need to find another good mirror.

This has been dealt with before. It's not missing, it has been archived:

By not having all the unsupported old releases in the main download

 David..

1. Don't use yum to install the package. Try using rpm -Uvh
ftp://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/10/Fedora/i386/os/Packages/fedora-release-10.1.noarch.rpm;

2. Using yum to upgrade versions that far a part is not recommended.
You are better off upgrading via a network install or using a CD/DVD.
However, if you go this route verify that all the .repo files point to
F10 repositories, upgrade yum before installing any other F10
packages.

I suggest you go here

http://fedoraproject.org/get-fedora.html

and download one of the Fedora 10 live CDs.  You can burn the image to a CD and run from it to try it out without any 
installation.  If you like it you can install from the CD or download and burn the DVD, which gives you more flexibility.

Hi Mike,
After nearly 10 years away from useful computing, I started as a
newbie with Fedora Core 1 and am still here with Fedora 10.  Be prepared
to learn with Fedora since it regularly increments to the latest and all
that flows from that.

On this list you will find a large community with an amazing wealth of
knowledge going back to the early days of computing as we know it today.
I just scratch around the edges, finding Fedora appropriate for our
business and home setup.  However, you will find that to attract their
attention, have a look at the list guidelines, particularly the use of
subject lines, since people with interests in certain areas will often
skip over messages with subjects not in their field.

There are many good online resources.  http://fedoraproject.org/ is a
good place to start.

If you're not technically minded, or interested, then perhaps not.  If
you want things to just work without putting any effort in, I'd say
definitely not (some things will just work, but that sort of expectation
is bound to find disappointments).  If you like experimenting, if you
like being able to use some of the newest toys, yes.

You'll discover from the start that you need to do a bit of reading.
Fedora is said to be bleeding edge, there is a new release every six months.
Much new stuff is in fedora, but it may be so bleeding edge that there may be
hardware issues, so be sure to check some of the links I provide.

Some posters might volunteer information on the hardware they have succesfully
used.
For example, I recently installed Fedora 10 using an ASUS P5Q motherboard
using a Nvidia GeForce9600 GSO card and Corsair PC 6400 DDR2 800MHz
memory and a Intel Core2 Quad 8400.  But the mobo does not like PATA drives.
Many Asus motherboards require a BIOS update in order to
use certain CPUs (go to support.asus.com, click on the Support tab and then
select CPU Support to check)
When buying your  hardware, consider the type of video you'll use: DVI, VGA,
built-in, additional card? Will it be PATA or SATA hard drive
interface? Does the
motherboard support PS2 or just USB keyboard/mouse?


A good place to start
http://www.linuxquestions.org/hcl/

Click on the Hardware link here
http://www.linuxcompatible.org/compatibility.html

Other sites
http://www.linux.com/feature/118497
http://www.linuxhardware.org/

Fedora is not very friendly for first time users, but you have this
mailing list to
help you along the way. Try the LiveCD to test it out. If you prefer, try out
other linux flavors like Ubuntu or CentOS.

When you need help always be specific and clear on what you ask.
Read http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines

Hope that helps.

While I agree with pretty much everything else you wrote, the above seems wrong.

I have a program used just to suck up memory, it uses every byte it allocates, 
and here is some output that makes me thing your above comment is at least not 
*fully* correct:


Before sucking memory:
$ free
 total   used   free sharedbuffers cached
Mem:514496 505936   8560  0  66156 139176
-/+ buffers/cache: 300604 213892
Swap:  1052248   99281042320

At maximum suckage:
$ free
 total   used   free sharedbuffers cached
Mem:514496 509396   5100  0   5368  13528
-/+ buffers/cache: 490500  23996
Swap:  1052248 521616 530632

Just after releasing all sucked memory:
$ free
 total   used   free sharedbuffers cached
Mem:514496  70536 443960  0   5360  14516
-/+ buffers/cache:  50660 463836
Swap:  1052248 191564 860684

After some other applications were called for, i.e., bring Thunderbird back to 
the foreground and start this reply:

$ free
 total   used   free sharedbuffers cached
Mem:514496 188460 326036  0   6504  51892
-/+ buffers/cache: 130064 384432
Swap:  1052248 189392 862856


As I recall updatedb will cause similar effects.
and _if_the_machine_has_sufficient_main_memory_ so that swap is not needed at 
the current time, issuing

/sbin/swapoff -a
/sbin/swapon -a
would reset the values free shows for swap usage, and
/sbin/swapon -s
could be educational before and after the above commands.

Howdy Folks,

Can someone point me in a direction to look?


Swap is used if the main memory is fully occupied by running processes.
If the primary machine (db2 I'm assuming) is handling all of the SQL
requests, then its memory may have been put under stress at some point
causing it to use swap.  free reports the high-water mark of swap (the
highest usage), not how much is being used NOW.  It won't be reset until
a reboot occurs.

The backup machine(s) probably never served any requests and didn't have
to use swap as they had adequate memory to handle whatever tasks you had
them doing.

I might also note that the normal set up for swap is twice the RAM size
(in your case, 4GB), so ideally you should set up 8GB swap.  Linux swap
_partitions_ can be a maximum of 2GB, but you can set up either multiple
2GB swap partitions or use a file-based swap (not as efficient as swap
partitions, but you can make them 2GB).

To use a swap file, find a partition with 8GB free on it, then, as root:

# dd if=/dev/zero of=/path/to/swapfile bs=1M count=8192

where /path/to is a directory on the partition with 8GB free space and
swapfile is the name of the swapfile you want.  For example, let's say
we have 8GB free on /usr and we want to put the swapfile right there.
The command would be:

# dd if=/dev/zero of=/usr/swapfile bs=1M count=8192

That creates an 8GB swap file named /usr/swapfile.  Next, format
the file as swap:

# mkswap /usr/swapfile

Once that's all done, you can change the /etc/fstab entry to use the
file as the swap.  The old entry may look like:

UUID=e7dbb97c-bc3e-405b-8a3d-31a2edda2a42 swap  swap  defaults   0 0

(using UUIDs) or
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol01 swapswap  defaults  0 0

(using an LVM volume) or even

/dev/sda3   swapswap  defaults  0 0

(using a disk partition) and change it to:

/usr/swapfile   swapswap  defaults  0 0

When you reboot, the system would have an 8GB swap.

It's possible that a mirror is having problems.  Could you tell us
exactly what link you clicked, and what mirror you got redirected to?
(The link should be http://download.fedoraproject.org/..., which
redirects you to a nearby mirror.)

Thanks,

We don't work that way, from top to bottom, but in a more free way, from 
bottom to top: we don't assign tasks, we are not your boss. Take 
yourself something you are comfortable with.


PS: and even if we would like to act bossy and give you tasks, as we are 
not yet familiar with your work and don't know your skills (do you have 
any work published online?), we have no way to know your area of expertise.

Hello,

2008/8/12 Rui Garanhoto [EMAIL PROTECTED]

  Hi there!

 In Fedora's website there is the pt_BR language.

 Well, Portuguese and Brazilian in fact look alike but there are many words
 that you write and pronounce different.

 Some person that don't understand a webmaster's work could think that those
 are grammar mistakes.

 Would you like to add a pt_PT language to the site?

I would like to say that there is a Portuguese (pt) team[1] in our project
and you are welcome to join us. You can find some info here[2].

After join the project you will be able to translate any module available in
our stats system, including the Fedora's website, that can be found here[3]
for your language.

[1] http://translate.fedoraproject.org/languages/pt
[2] http://docs.fedoraproject.org/translation-quick-start-guide/
[3] http://translate.fedoraproject.org/languages/pt/various

Fedora 7 and Centos 5 : Computer is started, but, at the end of starting, i 
have black Screen

 

Seeing as your using laptop I would immediately look to this not as a driver 
issue but as a screen selection issue

Typically there is a Fn key which switches your display output . Check this 
to ensure it is not changing to 'external only'

 

As for VESA not working right, that is odd. 

 

Can you supply a bit more details on your hardware?

Hardware

X version

Distribution / version

/etc/X11/xorg.conf

 

I had a issue once on an old IBM T41 where the screen would split and repeat 
the last few inches at the bottom. It was a graphics driver bug and it was 
fixed in a patch for that crappy chipset from ATI.
