You can ask in the bug for an updates image for the F16 installer. See

I will look into this. Thanks.

 turn off IPV6, checkout newegg.com again.   That way you are sure that

The price is ASCII text embedded in the HTML page. IPv6 has absolutely 
nothing to do with this issue. You could view the source code of the

Yes, it is fetched with JavaScript. See below.

 If the host has an IPv6 address, and if either (a) the IPv6 address 
 isn't reachable or (b) there's something messed up in the IPv6 
 configuration on your end, such that /no/ IPv6 address is reachable, 
 then it's entirely plausible that disabling IPv6 could fix an issue 
 like this.

Newegg doesn't have a single IPv6 address attached to any of their 
domains. That's also ignoring the fact that Firefox, as well as glibc, 
will start with a IPv4 address by default unless it detects you have a 
real (non 6to4) IPv6 default route. Toggling a little setting in Firefox 
will do jack squat.

Explain yourself out of that one. I'm done with this thread.

My command was an example of when a firewall rule existed to allow ssh

 But, when I examine /etc/sysconfig/iptables, I see:

 -A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT

 Doesn't that mean that port 22 is open?

That is the saved configuration. Running iptables -L shows you the 
current, in-memory configuration.


 And if so, why does your command not show any output, while
 /etc/sysconfig/iptables would suggest that the port is opened?

See above.

 Any yet, there is still no communication possible. What is wrong?

Your firewall rule is not active. You can manually add the rule by running:

# iptables -A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT

As Michael said, system-config-firewall has a bug. You two should file a

If there are cases where package A and B are in an update and don't

If you use preupgrade or yum to upgrade between Fedora releases you will 
never have your filesystem upgraded.

There's a ext4 to btrfs conversion utility if you wish to make the 
switch. (Google btrfs-convert)

As for the change to anaconda (for fresh installs), I do not know a 
timeline for the change.

 More details would probably help.

I either see a message in .xsession-errors about clutter not finding a

xsession-errors is erased on every login and I didn't save it at the

Downgrading gnome-shell (and friends) is the only way to get gnome-shell

I do not have updates-testing enabled fully. I only updated the packages 
listed in the bodhi update.

   it would also be great if those who understand what the hell they're
 doing with IPv6 could check over the Wiki page for accuracy and

There don't seem to be any formal test cases presently. Are there some 
in drafts that I don't see listed?

For the record, my IPv6 usage case is as follows:
-Fedora server (radvd) - IPv4 ISP, using the BGP 6to4 tunnel (IPv4: 
192.88.99.1, IPv6: 2002 prefix)
  |
  - clients (NetworkManager set to automatic for IPv6)

When I first set this up a few years ago I had issues getting to 
fedoraproject.org via IPv6. These problems magically vanished over a 
period of time (as Internet routers slowly propagate 6to4 addresses). 
Some sites worked, but others (such as fp.o) did not. These days the 
6to4 system seems to be much better and I have not had any issues lately.

It should be noted that getaddrinfo() defaults to true IPv6, IPv4, then 
6to4 in resolving DNS names. If I try to visit a site that has A and 
 records, Firefox will display the A site.

You cannot remove SELinux completely from Fedora through yum. The best 
you can do is set it to Disabled and exclude selinux-* and libselinux 
from being upgraded. Note: Some packages may require newer SELinux 
packages and may fail to update if you exclude them.

I don't see you benefiting at all from disabling/excluding SELinux.

 Did you upgrade your system from F14?  If so, depending on when you

 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=699198

 The current proposed workaround is to run:
   $ systemctl enable rsyslog.service

According to the bug this is being ignored as a vital issue as it does 
not clearly hit any release criteria. In this case, I think, the 
release criteria needs to be defined to state clearly that logging needs 
to function properly. If anaconda were to suddenly stop logging install 
events I'm sure there would be 3 or 4 people immediately on the job of 
fixing the problem.

The bug also mentions the workaround will be clearly documented. Where 
will that be? From my browsing of the users list many people use 
preupgrade so many people will not know their logging has ceased to 
function properly unless a zero-day (or close) fix is released.

This brings me to my next rant topic:
Is preupgrade considered an 'official' method of upgrading between 
releases? If not, then preupgrade should be removed from the repos. If 
so, then the release criteria is in dire need of fixing. Then there are 
those that use the DVD to upgrade. I assume they will be broken as well.

 What happens if you add the _netdev option to the nfs mounts in /etc/fstab?

- Changing nfs4 to nfs did not help.
- Adding 'auto' did not help.

- Using 'comment=systemd.automount' works in a sense they are mounted as 
they are used, so I could use this option, but I'd like to get them 
mounted like they were in F14.

Yes, I have a similar problem.

I looked over the kernel.spec and found no change to the upgrade scripts.

The grubby package hasn't been updated in F15 either, which is what the 
kernel post-install scripts call to build the initramfs and friends 
(where DKMS was somehow called).

I'm not sure what has changed at this point, but I'm pretty sure it has

Looks like you are in luck. People have started to reverse engineer it 
and have made some progress towards an easy-to-use tool[1] to switch

 My preference would be to just use integrated graphics, and
 completely disable the nvidia graphics.  Unfortunately, there
 doesn't seem to be a way to do that from the BIOS, at least
 not the visible BIOS control settings.

There is not an option in the BIOS because laptop manufacturers think 
you're going to use the operating system that was pre-installed. Optimus 
is not supported in any shape or form by nouvaeu or the NVIDIA 
proprietary driver.

In other words, you're screwed until someone reverse engineers it or 
NVIDIA supports it. Search for linux optimus to find dozens of other 
frustrated users.

Meaning: Scroll down the updates e-mail and look at the cobbler

 you don't NEED to download the updateinfo to get the updates.

Again, let me clarify. I'm not talking about bytes. With compression 
these lines make up no significance of the updates metadata.

Is it useful to anyone wanting to test cobbler to see a 100+ line 
changelog that has no meaning?

What kind of impression are we giving Fedora users who read the bodhi 
update notes? We don't care about recording changes and just allow any 
kind of garbage into the update notes?

Will it take posting spam links in bodhi notes to see someone take action?

Is my point clear now?

There is no more Gnome 2. Gnome 2 is deprecated in favor of Gnome 3. 
Fedora 15 will only contain Gnome 3.0.

No one will maintain or distribute any part of Gnome 2.

able to provide voice calling from anywhere in the world.

The frequency issue will be fixed with quad-band 3G MeeGo devices next 
year.

Even then, 3G carriers are overloaded and can hardly provide quality 
service to stream video or download faster than EDGE-speeds. Video 
calling is also a moot point as no USA carrier offers it and the 
countries that do offer it, offer it at a high expense. You're better 
off using Skype or XMPP via WLAN on the N900 for that. ;)

 From what I have seen there is good interaction between the X.org group 
and NVIDIA so I am not losing any sleep over the lack of collaboration. 
I'm sure if the suits at NVIDIA could be convinced they wouldn't lose 
money from producing an open source driver, we would have one.

P.S. Good discussion, Christopher. I agree with all of your points.

P.P.S. The X group also helped fix a VBE bug in F14 that affected many 
projects, including VirtualBox. Some debugging that helped pinpoint the

F14 Alpha and VBox

2010-08-27 Thread Michael Cronenworth
I'm using VirtualBox 3.2.8. I had to use the VNC installer as X would 
not start even with basic video driver selected.

After installation and fixing systemd (yes, I know it's known) X would 
still not start. Xorg.#.log shows it is attempting to use VESA but never 
starts. Anyone have it running?

I'm not looking for VirtualBox support and I know I will not get any 
from this list, but even with the VESA driver Fedora should function.

Is there a big tracking this? Was it discussed on IRC only? I see 
nothing in the PackageKit bodhi update or devel/testing lists mentioning 
this until your e-mail, which is not very detailed.

I just ran today's updates with gnome-packagekit successfully. On one of

specifically to catch any bugs.
