I'm using Dell Vostro 1520 with integrated Web-Cam  cheese works for 
me ( I'm using Fedora 12 x86_64 ,  uname -r = 2.6.32.9-67.fc12.x86_64 )

  I am not sure that will work. It depends upon what application you
use. In Fedora 11 my Dell integrated cam 'just worked'; in F12 the 'evo'
web conference tool doesn't seem to recognise it - I get an error about
'no openGL found'
   If you have problems, and can find a 'live' F11 to check with, it
might be worth testing.

Re: ssh to my computer behind NAT

[Chris Kloiber]

Oh.  Well forgive me for suggesting a non-open source product, but look 
into Dropbox:


http://www.dropbox.com/

With this, you copy items into the Dropbox on your system, and it's 
almost instantly accessible both from any other machine you install 
Dropbox on, or from the https://www.dropbox.com website. Free (as in 
beer) for up to 2 Gigs space.


Not as good as getting into your system remotely, but oh well.

Your explanation of a middle host is good.
I didn't understand what you were doing, previously.

Your description of NAT is fine. �Your ISP is doing NAT.

My first thought is to say, talk to the ISP.
The ISP should have a way for you to configure their NAT router
to forward the ssh port to your host.

I have difficulty thinking why the ISP wouldn't let you configure
their NAT router to forward the ssh port to your host...unless.

I hadn't thought of it before, but putting customers behind a NAT
router, and not letting customers configure the NAT router to
forward ports, might be a way to prevent customers running servers.

Is this what the ISP is trying to do? �Stop customers running servers?





If a customer wants to run a server, even an ssh server,
which is what you wish to do, does the ISP wish to charge more money?


*YES*



If the ISP is deliberately stopping you, I'd say get another ISP.
If you can't get another ISP, I don't know what to suggest.



I just thought of another possibility the ISP might be doing.

Are you, and some other customers of the ISP, sharing the same public
IP address? �Doing so would reduce the number of public IP addresses
the ISP would need. �I'd be very, very surprised if an ISP did this.
I'd be more than surprised. �I'd be shocked.




Take a deep breath! Yes, we're!!!
I live in a students hostel and I'm unable to change ISP. The only
other solution would be to to get a gprs-modem. But I don't want to
bay it because prices are wild here in Moscow (and I'd have dynamic IP
then, correct?). Before writing on this list I've consulted my ISP.
They have no better (free) solution that the one I have at the moment.
Alternatively, they can charge me with extra money for so called
'static IP'. I don't need it because I don't want to run WEB-server at
home. I just want to access my files at home computer from lab
computer to eliminate stresses in case I forgot a USB-drive in a rash
to the lab :-)

It's usual for ISP to do so, at least outside U.S.A. Public IP4 
addresses are scarce even in Germany: German Telekom provides a public
IP to my DSL router, O2 provides an non-routable  10.x.x.x address to 
my 3G device. The only solution will be IPv6. I hope it will come soon.

It is possible that the USB port on your computer is USB 2.0 (Full
Speed) but that the hub is just USB 1.1 (High Speed).

USB Mass Storage does work under the 1.1 protocol, but it is so slow
as to be useless for all but very small files, as you have no doubt
observed.

I would suggest asking your friends to let you plug your drive into
their hubs attached to their computers.  If you can find a combination
of hub and computer that operates at an acceptable speed, ask your
friend to let you borrow their hub long enough to try it out on your
own computer.

Put your friend's hub where your own hub is now.  If you then find
that your drive starts working really fast, your next step is to drop
your old hub off at the nearest eWaste recycling center and to buy a
new hub.  They're not expensive, but check the product packaging to
make sure it specifically says USB 2.0 or USB2.

I just thought of another possibility the ISP might be doing.

Are you, and some other customers of the ISP, sharing the same public
IP address?  Doing so would reduce the number of public IP addresses
the ISP would need.  I'd be very, very surprised if an ISP did this.
I'd be more than surprised.  I'd be shocked.

Re: ssh to my computer behind NAT

[Chris Kloiber]

If that's true (they want to prevent you from running a server) then get 
a new ISP.

If it's a company gateway, we mustn't help you defeat their security.

I don't want to discuss whether having a gateway adds to security.
Personally, I believe all devices in the internal LAN must be secure.
I do not believe security can be done solely at the border of a LAN.

Do you control the device that is doing NAT for you or does the ISP?
If controlled by the ISP, did the ISP provide a way to configure it?

As others have said and will say, one needs to have the NAT device

Your explanation of a middle host is good.
I didn't understand what you were doing, previously.

Your description of NAT is fine.  Your ISP is doing NAT.

My first thought is to say, talk to the ISP.
The ISP should have a way for you to configure their NAT router
to forward the ssh port to your host.

I have difficulty thinking why the ISP wouldn't let you configure
their NAT router to forward the ssh port to your host...unless.

I hadn't thought of it before, but putting customers behind a NAT
router, and not letting customers configure the NAT router to
forward ports, might be a way to prevent customers running servers.

Is this what the ISP is trying to do?  Stop customers running servers?

If a customer wants to run a server, even an ssh server,
which is what you wish to do, does the ISP wish to charge more money?

If the ISP is deliberately stopping you, I'd say get another ISP.
If you can't get another ISP, I don't know what to suggest.

Your explanation of a middle host is good.  
I didn't understand what you were doing, previously.

Your description of NAT is fine.  Your ISP is doing NAT.

My first thought is to say, talk to the ISP.
The ISP should have a way for you to configure their NAT router
to forward the ssh port to your host.

I have difficulty thinking why the ISP wouldn't let you configure
their NAT router to forward the ssh port to your host...unless.

I hadn't thought of it before, but putting customers behind a NAT
router, and not letting customers configure the NAT router to 
forward ports, might be a way to prevent customers running servers.

Is this what the ISP is trying to do?  Stop customers running servers?

If a customer wants to run a server, even an ssh server,
which is what you wish to do, does the ISP wish to charge more money?

If the ISP is deliberately stopping you, I'd say get another ISP.
If you can't get another ISP, I don't know what to suggest.

I initially tried VLC as a plugin (and stand-alone player) with and without 
Totem, but decided to uninstall it before installing mplayer.  Since mplayer 
and its browser plugin worked to my satisfaction, I never bothered reinstalling 
VLC.  My video and multimedia requirements are very basic anyway. So, I didn't 
need anything more sophisticated than mplayer.

I doubt if VLC will cause problems, if installed along with mplayer, as long as 
everything is configured properly.  Try.  You can always uninstall one or the 
other, if there are conflicts.

The drives are on different busses. One drive is plugged into a hub the 
other directly into the laptop.  The VM is configured with 1Gb of RAM 
which is half the total amount.  Obviously increasing the system RAM 
will help some.  The swap partition is on the system drive.  I'll take a 
look at the VM configus and see if there is anything I can change.   All 
the partitions on the 2 external USB drives are ntfs so there is that 
issue as well.  I'll do some playing around.

That is another reason your drive is slow. You are connected at USB
1.1 speeds, instead of USB 2.0 speeds.

new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd

It does not make a lot of sense, but the speeds go:

slow speed
high speed
full speed

Random comments:

* Are the two disks on the same USB bus (use lsusb to check)? If so,
move one of them.

* USB is a cpu-intensive protocol (compared with Firewire or SATA) since
it basically doesn't do any DMA, i.e. every 1kb or whatever protocol
transfer requires cpu intervention. The wire speed is only part of the
story.

* If your VM is configured with a lot of RAM, your host will tend to
swap more, but on your swap device which is probably SATA (you aren't
using the USB disks as swap are you?). If it's configured with less RAM,
the guest will swap more (between VM RAM and VM disk), which puts a
higher load on the kernel. You can try fiddling with the configuration
to see if it makes a difference.

You said something about a middle host.  This middle host confuses me.
Is this middle host controlled by the ISP?  What is this middle host?

When I worked for a certain company, I had to ssh to a gateway host.
They didn't want anyone able to ssh directly to their internal LAN.
When you said middle host, I thought of that company and their gateway.

I would be surprised if an ISP requires you to go to a middle host.
I would expect an ISP to use the NAT where only IP addresses change.
I would expect an ISP to forward all ports to your assigned IP address.

If the ISP provided a router to you, that is doing NAT,
you should be able to configure that router to forward your ssh port.

I would not be surprised if a company requires you to go to a gateway.

If it's a company gateway, we mustn't help you defeat their security.

I don't want to discuss whether having a gateway adds to security.
Personally, I believe all devices in the internal LAN must be secure.
I do not believe security can be done solely at the border of a LAN.

Do you control the device that is doing NAT for you or does the ISP?
If controlled by the ISP, did the ISP provide a way to configure it?

As others have said and will say, one needs to have the NAT device
port forward the appropriate port (whatever port you use for ssh)
to your host.

I have a bunch of Totem and Totem-compatible plugins, including one for 
Windows Media.

So you used mplayer-plugin as a replacement. Maybe I can do that--so 
long as I don't have to get rid of VLC.

I'm using GNOME.  For years, I had recurring problems playing Flash (and other 
multimedia files) through any browser, but Firefox was the most problematical.  
Some sites worked fine; others wouldn't work at all; some would work, but with 
frequent crashes or freezes or stuttering requiring reloading/restarting the 
browser.  To make a long story short, using yum, I completely uninstalled Totem 
and all its related files, installed mplayer-plugin (and its dependencies), and 
that cured 98% of the multimedia problems.  Sites that wouldn't work, now did. 
Flash was installed manually per Adobe's directions.

Maybe, there are some KDE plugins, etc. that Foxnews doesn't like or can't 
recognize and stops.  What plugins do you have installed?

Just make the modem/router that your ISP gave you forward a port for ssh

I have ports (not 22) set on the my router that route SSH traffic to one
of two computers on the network.  Just check your router/modem/thing.

You can make either work and I have done so. However some bios' will only
boot from one type or the other. I haven't figured out everything related to
this, but NTFS support is one area that seems to be different depending
on whether or not you use a partition table. A different bootstrap method
is used depending on whether or not you use a partition table. And I think
only one currently supports NTFS. I wanted to use NTFS in order to support
a squashfs image over 4 GiB and be mountable on random Windows machines.

FC9 why didnt you say :-) its definetly not going to work on FC9 you
need to upgrade syslinux I have syslinux-3.75-2.dex.fc9.i686 self
built & livecd-tools-017.2-1.fc9.i386 I havent tried building a respin
on FC9 lately because of the rpm & squashfs changes around FC11 but I
can still write useable FC12.iso usb-sticks from FC9 due to the
syslinux upgrade.

this should have worked?
Sorry I cant see what your doing wrong from here so if you downloaded
the iso check the checksum again and give your stick a good look to.

It would be interesting to see what happens with a different filesystem,
e.g. ext3 or ext4, that doesn't use fuse. If that's not practical
because the disk contains real data, perhaps you could create a small
partition with one of the kernel-supported filesystems and measure that.

If that shows a big difference, check if fuse has enough working memory,
or if there's any way to instrument it (I know very little about fuse so
I can't help there). Or even try it with a vm-based Windows installation
(I know it sounds wierd, but it could be interesting to try).

I have a similar problem.  I have 2 external USB disk drives, one is 
1.5TB the other 1TB.  Copies to and from the external disks to the local 
disk, or between the 2 external disks, take a long time and while the 
copy is going on the system is essentially unusable, e.g.. it can take 
15 to 30 seconds for virtual desktops to update.  Moving the mouse is 
very jerky, the mouse stops for 5 to 10 seconds then moves then stops 
again.  I run netbeans IDE with the netbeans projects on one of the 
external drives.  Even when I'm not doing anything with the IDE the disk 
light on my laptop will go on solid for several minutes leading to slow 
response times.

I'm running on a 2Ghz Core 2 Duo processor with 2Gb memory.  What I 
notice during the copies is that both CPUs are 75 - 90% in wait state.  
I'm also running an encrypted root file system.

The problem is really bad when I try running VMware Workstation 7.  The 
virtual machines are all located on one of the external disks.   When I 
run one VM the system response time on the system degrades significantly 
as noted above and I have to shutdown the VM if I want to get anything 
done.

Hi,
sorry for top post and sorry about the poor english.
It is not a flash drive, is an real HD.

I search a lot on www about this issue and the only clue i find is
about sync/async option when mount the device and verify if it is
connected to usb 2.0 hub.
The strange thing is if i use windows to copy this diretory (drag on
drop), the full operation last more or less two six (copy directory
and umount - "eject" - the device),
The same operation under fedora last a lot longer. (last day, i let
the copy last for a full day and it is not finished - i pause in the
middle).

In Fedora 12 the nouveau driver has no 3d. The binary only non free

3d. 

However, Fedora 13 should have 3d support in nouveau for lots of cards.

In this setup, YouTube works. Foxnews does not.

When I upgraded to Fedora 12, 

I had an error, to the effect, hardware was already in use.
I found the "nouveau" driver had the hardware.
My xorg.conf file was using the "nv" driver.
Not thinking, I changed from the "nv" driver to the "nouveau" driver. 

Searching the Internet, for the words, blacklist nouveau,
I found the following comment at URL:
http://linux.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/Fedora/2010-01/msg02113.html

The summary of the comment was, if you use the rpmfusion repository,
for the nvidia module, it will automatically blacklist nouveau?

If I do an Internet, search for the words, blacklist nouveau nv,
I find indications some people, not sure who, claimed the nouveau
driver has passed up the nv driver, and has been made the default.

Questions please:
1) Are there 3 drivers, nvidia, nv, nouveau?
2) If there are 3 drivers, how did people decide which driver to use?
   My questions on this subject, are as follows:
   a) Is the nouveau driver now considered better than the nv driver?
  If the nouveau driver is considered better, I am curious why?
   b) Is it true the nvidia driver is faster than the nouveau driver?
  I wanted to use the "free" driver, if possible, so I was using nv.
  I switched to nouveau because that seemed to be the new default.
  I am wondering what I am giving up not using the nvidia driver.

-Rick

Try playing Chuck through www.hulu.com or www.fancast.com, and see if it works. 
 Do show clips play at NBC?

There are no full episodes of L&O that I could find to verify.  (NBC's site 
layout is a hodge-podge morass.)  Clips worked fine on L&O, plus, all the other 
shows I checked, but none of the full episodes did.  Just the Peacock 
animation, but without sound.  I know there's suppose to be audio with it.

[Please don't top-post on this list]

First of all, is this device a real hard disk, i.e. a mechanically
rotating magnetic surface, or is it some kind of Flash drive?

If it's the latter, then read on.

I've been looking into this recently because of wildly varying
performance when writing to a pendrive. It turns out that Flash memory
isn't "really" random access when it comes to writing (reading is OK
though). Quick summary:

The Flash technology only allows writing zeroes, not ones, and is
organized in blocks of say 128 or 512 bytes (this varies according to
manufacturer) so to write some binary data in the middle of an existing
block the procedure is:

1) Read the entire block to some short-term scratch memory
2) Reset the block to all 1's.
3) Modify the scratch memory with the new bits
4) Copy the 0 bits of the scratch to the Flash block

(all this happens inside the drive of course; AFAIK it's not visible
even at the level of the kernel driver).

This process takes a very long time, and when you're repeatedly writing
small amounts of data (e.g. to update a directory) it all has to be done
multiple times, even for the same drive block. A few days ago I copied a
2GB file to an existing VFAT filesystem on an 8GB pendrive, reputedly
one of the fastest on the market. It took over two hours. I then tried
just simply copying the data directly to the drive using 'dd' (i.e. no
filesystem). It finished in under 5 minutes.

BTW, rsync is a killer on these drives because it adds another layer of
reading and hashing. In this particular case it's a false economy.

Both (Foxnews & YouTube) work fine here in Firefox 3.5.8 and Flash 10.0 R45 all 
64-bit.  No special configurations.  Basically, a stock install of F12.

What version flash player do you have?  And what OS?

Here's a couple of books, too, just for good measure:

SELINUX: NSA's Open Source Security Enhanced Linux by Bill McCarty
(published by O'Reilly)

SELinux by Example by Frank Mayer, Karl MacMillan and David Caplan
(published by Prentice Hall)

Good sources, both.

Re: Problem with an external usb HD - slow usb

[Luigi Castro Cardeles]

Hi,

ntfs.

Nothing strange on dmesg or /var/log/messages.

There is something strange:
i set a line on fstab with some options (rw,async) but when i mount (mount
-a), i get this:
type fuseblk (rw,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,blksize=4096)

I found a bug about this:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=474282but it is closed but
not solved (i think).

I filled a this: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=571508.

I also find this:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=537336(not fedora but

Type of filesystem (ext3, ntfs)? Any noticeable messages on dmesg? Whta
does "top" tracing reports while transferring? Maybe you can also
check /var/log/messages

F12: gparted & mtab

[Daniel B. Thurman]

Has anyone seen the following entries in /etc/mtab:

/etc/pki/dnssec-keys /var/named/chroot/etc/pki/dnssec-keys none rw,bind 0 0
/etc/rndc.key /var/named/chroot/etc/rndc.key none rw,bind 0 0
/usr/lib/bind /var/named/chroot/usr/lib/bind none rw,bind 0 0

These entries was discovered when I was using gparted
to view the partitions of my drives and I noticed for my
F12 drive/partition, gparted was showing the following
under the 'Mount Point' column:

/, /var/named/chroot/etc/pki/dnssec-key,
/var/named/chroot/etc/rndc.key,
/var/named/chroot/usr/lib/bind

It used to show only '/' before, but now gparted
shows this annoying line.

If I do a 'umount -a' followed by a 'mount -a'
the "problem" goes away...

So, what gives?

Before you do a lot of debugging, your system is working properly
with the default setup. When a user log on in the GUI mode, a PA
daemon is started for them. As soon as you play something through
PA, it grabs the ALSA device it is configured to use. If I remember
correctly, after so long with no output, it releases it again. The
problem when you change logins, the new one also starts its own PA
daemon. If there isn't a sound card available, it is stuck using the
dummy one.

One way to get around this is to run a system wide PA daemon. But
make sure you understand the security risk of doing so. (They are
pointed out in the docs.)

If my memory about PA releasing the sound card, you may be able to
work around it by tweeking the timeout setting, and making sure you
do not get any system sounds when changing users.

have toll free (and free of charge) technical support.  In fact, the one

FC12 livecd-iso-to-disk woes - now suicidal

Well, I've so far tried all the suggestions (except bugzilla),
and *nothing* works. I must be doing something wrong.

On my FC9 with livecd-tools-0.17.3-1.fc9
Ive tried:
  livecd-iso-to-disk Fedora-12-i686-Live.iso /dev/sdc1
  livecd-iso-to-disk Fedora-12-i686-Live.iso /dev/sdc (required mkdosfs -I and 
mkfs.vfat -I)
  liveusb-creator Fedora-12-i686-Live.iso
and, thinking it might be a subtle difference in the iso structure,
I tried the same commands with Fedora-9-i686-Live.iso

They all failed with a 'Boot error'.

I then moved to my newly installed and updated FC12 system, with 
livecd-tools-031-1.fc12.1 and tried:
  livecd-iso-to-disk Fedora-12-i686-Live.iso /dev/sdb1
  livecd-iso-to-disk --format --reset-mbr Fedora-12-i686-Live.iso /dev/sdb1
  livecd-iso-to-disk --format --reset-mbr Fedora-12-i686-Live.iso /dev/sdb
  liveusb-creator Fedora-12-i686-Live.iso

These also failed in the same way.

The only thing that works is 'dd if=Fedora-12-i686-Live.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=8M'
and if it wasnt for this I would think either my memsticks or my bios were 
faulty.

If anyone out there has actually got this stuff to work on FC12, *please* would
you share the secrets. And if it failed, can we compare notes, and I'll file
a bug report.

Thanks,
Terry

Thanks for the information.

Pardon my ignorance.
Why does it have to?
I'd thought that SOP was for clients to ask for information,
for web servers to provide it and for clients eat said information.
The server was not supposed to need to know what was asking.
Apparently not in this case.
What makes this case different?

Re: [389-users] Busy replica when deleting replication conflict

[Juan Asensio Sánchez]

At first sight, there are no messages neither in access or error logs, in
supplier or consumers. Last modification operation in the busy
replica/database is:

[08/Mar/2010:08:16:01 +0100] conn=207283 op=4 DEL
dn="nsuniqueid=f851c101-1dd111b2-a64db547-e406+uid=cabudenhos029p$,ou=computers,o=XX,dc=XX,dc=XXX"

which does not get any RESULT operation. I have just enabled replication
logs in the consumer to see any messages. As soon i get them, i will post.

Regards.

It appears, from what I've read, that it's an issue with NBC's website
not detecting the Flash 10 version correctly (have seen this on other
sites as well).  I've tried accessing the site in Chrome as well on
Fedora 11 i386 with no success.

There is no doubt it is different. Butt why did its behavior change
overnight. Actually it is the router configuration that changed
overnight. The router does reuse ips. Once the router was reconfigured
the ip of the affected machine and all the machines on the LAN returned
to the ones they had before the incident.

What makes me mad, however, is that the ATT super-experts charged me $29
for 20 minutes to not have the slightest idea what to do. And they
claimed to be experts on my 2wire router. Ultimately they wanted me to
buy another 2wire router for $99 from the local ATT store.

In your /etc/X11/xorg.conf you need to change the driver from "nvidia"
(the proprietary driver) to "nv" (the open source driver).

Section "Device"
Identifier "Device0"
Driver "nvidia"  #  <= THIS LINE
VendorName "NVIDIA Corporation"
BoardName  "GeForce 6600 GT"
Option "AccelMethod" "XAA" # not EXA

BTW, what I do when I update the kernel is first boot into runlevel 3,
then build the proprietary driver modules, and then change to runlevel 5.

[Luigi Castro Cardeles]

Hi list and Patrick,

the default max_sectors is 240. I change this to 1024 like you said but the
problem continue.

If i try the speed:

time dd if=/dev/sdc1 of=/dev/null bs=1M count=5
i get that speed: 972 MB/s

but if i run rsync, the upload transfer rate is very slow ( begins at 4MB/s
and goes below until 0.7KB/s)

It is not you or the flash player. When I tried it. Law and Order played
but when I tried Chuck the behavior was the same as you saw. Just the
Peacock.

Firewall config and ftp server

[Edward. S. P. Leong]

Dear All,

Our is fedora 11...

How can we enable the following of firewall function ( modules ), then
the ftp server is good for working ?

modprobe ip_tables
modprobe ip_nat_ftp
modprobe ip_conntrack
modprobe ip_conntrack_ftp

Due to trying the following cmd under fc 11:

[~]# modprobe ip_tables
WARNING: Deprecated config file /etc/modprobe.conf, all config files
belong into /etc/modprobe.d/.
FATAL: Module ip_tables not found.
[~]#

Thanka !

Edward.

Dear Ash,

1, My means is where can we download the pear and install it into the
fedora 11 system ?
Due to our web server :
[pear]# pwd
/usr/share/pear
[pear]# dir
Archive data OS pearcmd.php peclcmd.php System.php XML
Console doc PEAR PEAR.php Structures test
[pear]#
So, it is not update ( pear ) ?

2, Would you mind to send me your php config ( php.ini ) and Web Server
config ( httpd.conf ) as sample ?
Due to our Web Server is problem :
After upload all of homepage data ( php format ) to Web Server, then
type "http://ip or domain_name" the result is blank page...

Thank for your help !

Edward.

Has this anything to do with why videos won't play on foxnews.com when I 
browse them in Firefox?

YouTube and other shared-service videos play fine, and so do the videos 
that I embed. But foxnews.com won't play at all.

Do I need a plugin to get it to work? Or do those videos not play nice 
with flashplayer?

i don't have to google it, i'm already well aware of how much of a

Fedora 12: no sound after switch users

[Neil Bird]

   Following on from another thread (in which gdm seemed to be stealing 
sound-ability from users), I've updated to the latest pulseuadio RPMs from 
updates-testing, and by situation seems to have gotten worse.

   (NB: this is fedora 12;  it was all working swimmingly in fedora 10, from 
which I upgraded a few weeks back).


   After a reboot, I log in.  I have sound, no problems AFAICT.  If I then 
switch users for my wife to log in (while I remain logged in), she gets no 
sound at all.

   A quick investigation shows that her PA config. has dropped back to a 
'dummy' output device.  I can switch back to my login and hear my sound 
again, but nothing i can do can get hers working again.

   I am utterly at a loss as to how to debug/diagnose pulseaudio, it's gone 
well beyond my ken;  can anyone help point me in the right direction?

   Here's the output of 'pulseaudio -vvv' :

https://www.fnxweb.co.uk/fnx/data/pa.out


   And the two log files generated by system-config-sound (or whatever it's 
called) run (as root) whilst logged in as my wife:

https://www.fnxweb.co.uk/fnx/data/scsconfig.log
https://www.fnxweb.co.uk/fnx/data/scsrun.log


   I did notice some failed device access in the pa.out file, namely 
"/dev/snd/pcmC7D0p", but that device isn't on my system.  I have:

drwxr-xr-x  2 root root   80 2010-03-07 16:41 by-id/

I also had this issue, found a report that is you add

iommu=soft

to the kernel line in the menu.lst 

EXAMPLE:
title Fedora (2.6.32.9-67.fc12.x86_64)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.32.9-67.fc12.x86_64 ro  
root=UUID=a729b820-4928-4823-ba21-d4233410109c quiet vga=794 selinux=0 
iommu=soft
initrd /initramfs-2.6.32.9-67.fc12.x86_64.img


It worked for me.

Scrolled through my /root/.bash_history to find this example:

livecd-iso-to-disk --format --noverify --overlay-size-mb 128 
/home/a/Desktop/Fedora-rawhide-Live-i386.iso /dev/sdg

Now I have made additional tests:

I haven't tried it myself, or looked at the livecd-iso-to-disk code,
but are you sure that you want /dev/sdc1 and not /dev/sdc?

/dev/sdc1 is the first partition on your third SCSI drive (which
includes USB storage).

/dev/sdc in your entire third SCSI drive.

Unless you write a boot sector to the first 512 bytes of /dev/sdc, you
will get exactly the error you are seeing.

Hope that helps,

FC12 livecd-iso-to-disk woes

[T. Horsnell]

Hi all,
I'm trying to make a USB version of the FC12 livecd.
I follow the instructions at:

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraLiveCD/USBHowTo

and type (as root):

# livecd-iso-to-disk --format --reset-mbr Fedora-12-i686-Live.iso /dev/sdc1

but the resulting USB stick just gives me 'Boot Error' when I boot it.

If I use the dd method:

# dd if=Fedora-12-i686-Live.iso of=/dev/sdc bs=8M

it boots correctly. I ultimately want a persistent-storage
area so the dd solution is no good for me.

Any ideas?

Cheers,
Terry

I have a similar problem on my laptop if I have hybrid SLi enabled. Take
a look at your BIOS settings and make sure only 1 graphics card is
enabled. As you state, booting to an earlier kernel does not have this
problem on my laptop either. Hope this helps.

In order to be certain, have you appended 'rdblacklist=nouveau' to the end
of the grub (assuming you're using grub) entry for that kernel? AFAIK it
does not boot correctly with the NVidia drivers without it.

Fedora 12: Cannot boot with kernel-2.6.32.9-67.fc12.x86_64

[Steven P. Ulrick]

Hello Everyone
The good news is that in my 10+ years using Linux, I am almost certain that 
I have never had a kernel that would not boot...

Last night I ran "yum update" and it pulled in 
kernel-2.6.32.9-67.fc12.x86_64.  When I attempted to boot it, the boot 
process seemed to complete, but X never started.

Since I have never had this problem before, I don't know precisely what 
information that you need.

I am running an NVidia video card, with the proprietary NVidia driver, 
installed from RPMFusion.  After failing to boot 
kernel-2.6.32.9-67.fc12.x86_64, I can reboot and choose another kernel and 
it boots just fine.

>From /var/log/messages, this is the closest that I can find to anything 
relevant:
Mar  8 03:01:56 localhost kernel: DRHD: handling fault status reg 102
Mar  8 03:01:56 localhost kernel: DMAR:[DMA Read] Request device [03:00.0] 
fault addr 233038000 
Mar  8 03:01:56 localhost kernel: DMAR:[fault reason 01] Present bit in 
root entry is clear
Mar  8 03:01:56 localhost kernel: NVRM: Xid (0003:00): 54, CMDre  
  0001 0001
Mar  8 03:01:56 localhost kernel: DRHD: handling fault status reg 202
Mar  8 03:01:56 localhost kernel: DMAR:[DMA Read] Request device [03:00.0] 
fault addr 235833000 
Mar  8 03:01:56 localhost kernel: DMAR:[fault reason 01] Present bit in 
root entry is clear
Mar  8 03:01:56 localhost kernel: NVRM: Xid (0003:00): 6, PE007e 
Mar  8 03:01:56 localhost kernel: DRHD: handling fault status reg 302
Mar  8 03:01:56 localhost kernel: NVRM: Xid (0003:00): 6, PE007e 

Again, I can boot fine from every other kernel.  I just can't boot from 
2.6.32.

If all I need to do is try running without the proprietary NVidia driver, 
please let me know specifically how to disable that driver the easiest 
possible way.  Translation: so that I can just boot back into an older 
kernel and continue using the proprietary NVidia driver if I decide to do 
that.

Also, not only have I never had a problem with being able to boot a 
particular kernel, I have never had any problems with the proprietary 
NVidia driver.

Let me know any additional information that you may need to help me with 
this issue.

Fedora 12 Gnome-Desktop since last update very slow

[Jürgen Dankoweit]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA256

Hello to the list,

since the last update - look at the protocol at the end of the mail -
Fedora 12 Gnome-Desktop is very slow. Every action takes seconds before
it is executed:
(*) Opening a terminal window: 2 sec
(*) In the terminal: su root and checking the password: three seconds
(*) In the same terminal: ls /sbin: first nothing happens, then it
scrolls the content of the directory line for line
(*) Opening Thunderbird: 5 seconds a clear window, then a part of (*)
(*) Thunderbird after 4 seconds the rest
(*) scrolling in every application very slow
(*) Starting of Compiz failed
(*) Moving a window: the content of the window which is under that is
restored line by line

Are there any problems with Xorg?
Before this update, everything was very fast!
