Hello,

It must be stated that this is a PAM question, not an LDAP question. 
The PAM mailing list is here :
https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/pam-list

That said, we handle LDAP group authentication in PAM via the listfile

Re: hostname automatically changed to localhost

2010-11-16 Thread Hoang Le
I think I succeeded. I changed both

- Changing HOSTNAME in /etc/sysconfig/network doesn't work
- hostnamecommand just temporary changes the name

I'm sorry for my last email saying that the above two methods didn't work.
They work actually!!!

Thank you very much for your quick support.

You don't have to log in, at all, for services to be started.

Please, do not automatic install applications witch have MONO dependencies

2010-11-16 Thread Dario Lesca
I have install f14 and I discovered that because of some application
(like gnome-do,gnome-desktop-sharp,ecc) you install mono.

IMHO

I do not want to contribute to the spread of MS-C#
There is always an alternative to developing applications based on mono

SO, please, do not automatic install applications witch have MONO
dependencies.

MONO is bad, is not totally open.
Yes mono is open, but the idea behind it is not open

It's a Trojan horse to facilitate the diffusion of applications also
compatible with Windows

So, please, do not automatic include applications that are dependent on
it.

/IMHO

Thanks for your patience, and thanks for all the other wonderful work

 According to the docs you should be able to install F14 in graphical
 mode on this computer:
 http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/14/html/Release_Notes/sect-Release_Notes-Welcome_to_Fedora_14.html#sect-Release_Notes-Hardware_Overview
 In anyway, if anaconda refuses to install X-server you're still able to
 install it 'by hand' after system installation completes.


Is there some option to force graphical on the install since it states 
that 384 is enough for the GI?

Disk Druid LVM editing is only available via the GI, not the text install.

As it is, I add the askmethod option to the install to point the install 
to my local repo.

If you're using DHCP, it's possibly part of the situation.

e.g. It gets assigned 192.168.0.15.  It does a reverse DNS lookup and
finds out that numerical IP resolves as george.example.com.  The
hostname george is used.

That's part of the reason why people put a hostname into
their /etc/hosts file.  It doesn't set it, as such, but gives the answer
to the question what hostname is associated with my IP.  Though
shouldn't be done if you get assigned different IPs, and you want to use
the same hostname all the time, unless you're going to keep on editing
the hosts file.

e.g. /etc/hosts could have the following:

127.0.0.1  localhost.localdomain  localhost
192.168.0.15  george.example.com  george

Indeed. Thanks.

By the way, has there been discussion of the fact that many f14 packages 
seem to depend upon f12 packages? i.e., packages named things like 
*.f12.x86_64? This makes it very difficult to figure out what might have 
been left over from the upgrade.

 If I understood you correctly, you need to put the following into
 /etc/gdm/custom.conf:
 
 # GDM configuration storage
 
 [daemon]
 
 TimedLoginEnable=true
 TimedLogin=[USERNAME]
 TimedLoginDelay=5
 
 [security]
 
 [xdmcp]
 
 [greeter]
 
 [chooser]
 
 [debug]
 
 
 This should log into your user desktop. Now, I seem to recall one time I
 did that on a newly built system, and instead of an automated login I
 ended up with just an Autologin option added to the gdm menu. If I
 selected it I then got bumped into my desktop without a password, but I
 still had to click on the option manually. And, I think I had to turn
 selinux off before booting straight into my gnome desktop was fully
 automatic without requiring any user interaction.
 
 Have no idea why merely turning selinux off or on would have such a
 drastic impact on the gdm login. I can't make a logical connection
 between the two, but that's what it is, no matter how stupid it seems.
 
 Also, I think you may lose the ability to manually log into some other
 user account from gdm, you'll always be autologged into your desktop.
 Logging out will simply log you back in. Also, irrespective of
 everything, you may need to futz around with your gnome keyring and set
 a blank password for your primary keyring, in order for it to be opened
 up automatically upon your autologin.
 
If there is an SELinux problem with this, please open a bug report.

You can use package-cleanup to find things that were dropped but not removed
or were not able to be updated because of conflicts. (In particular with
the --orphans option.) yum distro-sync can be used to handle cases where
some updates got pushed for F13 and/or F12 before F14.

There is also a broken obsoletes for something relating to antlr that
was reported well before the release, but was never properly fixed. This
blocks the update of some java stuff.

You can't go by the names. Because the last few releases prior to F14
had mass rebuilds, there were very few packages that didn't have an older
release number in the package name. There was not a mass rebuild for F14,
so that many packages built for earlier releases were usable as is.

From the new comments in that bug, it looks like the error occurs on the

not after that (which would explain why there is no error when you run

I've had some experience putting contemporary Linux distros on marginal 
systems.  The secret is to do a text-based install.  That way what little RAM 
you have is not eaten up by the graphic installer sometimes causing the install 
to fail.  If that doesn't work, then do a mininal base install (text-mode, of 
course) with only enough to get the system to boot to a terminal with the tools 
to install, piece by piece, the rest of what you want.  I employed the latter 
technique a few years ago to install Debian Etch with XFCE on a Thinkpad 240X 
with 192MB RAM (its maximum) when the minimum recommended by Debian was 256, 
IIRC.  It runs just fine.

If all this fails, you may try creating your own spin of F14 using revisor.  
It's in the F12 repo and probably in F14 as well.  I've never tried it, but 
came across it while researching the optimum distro to install on a EeePC 900 
(512MB RAM) a few months ago.  I first considered F12, since that was what I 
currently had installed as my primary desktop, but finally chose Eeebuntu 3.0 
with GNOME, the default.  It installed easily and ran just fine, but RAM was 
tight using about half just to boot.  It hit the swap, too, but very lightly 
and performance remained more than satisfactory.  Even so, I chose to upgrade 
to 1GB.  Now, it never hits the swap, at least, not that I've seen.

Maybe, Eeebuntu would be a suitable alternative.  It was no problem to install 
and configure.  I didn't have to search for drivers or anything.  Everything 
was included.  Everything worked out-of-the-box.  Wireless, too.

Dear List

I am running FC13, and after the upgrade to 3.6.12 on the 28th of
October there is a problem with youtube videos and sound.  Youtube
worked perfectly with sound before the upgrade to 3.6.12.  

I can play music with rhythumbox without difficulty, but no sound will
be generated by firefox.

Has this happened to anyone else?  Any ideas?

When something like that happens, it is always a good idea to try to

If you run a cmp -l file1.iso file2.iso, you can see one of these
three scenarios:

1) only one byte is different, or a few sparse bytes; in most cases
there is only one flipped bit: HARDWARE PROBLEMS, memory or general

2) errors starting from a certain position (at on offset dividable

possibly bad kernel or drivers (or maybe hardware like USB disk boxes)

3) errors starting from a certain position (not round number) and never
recovering, with bytes delayed or anticipated (file content shifted):
BAD SOFTWARE, probably the downloading application or the uploading
server has messed up while resuming a download

The first scenario is the worst; especially if successive runs of the same

 If all this fails, you may try creating your own spin of F14 using revisor.

Write not there is an issue with revisor, so you'd want to use pungi.

I seem to be dyslexic today.

Right now there is an issue with revisor.

Re: F12 - F14 (via preupgrade), not so smooth

2010-11-16 Thread Kevin J. Cummings
I just wanted to send out an update after (almost) 2 weeks.

On 11/03/2010 02:52 PM, Kevin J. Cummings wrote:
 Last night, after I successfully upgraded my F13 test desktop from
 F13-F14 w/preupgrade, I started the same operation on my F12 laptop.
 
 The results were not so good.
 
 X86_64, Asus S96J laptop, w/ATI Mobility Radeon X1600 video card,
 IPW3945, 2GB RAM, 350GB disk.

[snip]

 2) X11 no longer starts up.  I'm using the radeon driver for my ATI
 Technologies Inc M56P [Radeon Mobility X1600].  It was working just fine
 (as fine can be with the radeon driver), but now it dies with a seg
 fault with only 3 frames on the stack.  I have re-configured to run the
 VESA driver, but, I miss my 1200x800 native resolution.  VESA can only
 do 1024x768.  I can attach my (used to be working) xorg.conf for anyone
 interested, but it fails in exactly the same way if I delete it as well.
  I can try again and send along an Xorg.0.log if it will help.

I tried starting the radeon server both with and without an xorg.conf
file in /etc/X11.  I get the same results.

I tried removing nomodeset from my kernel boot line.  With the radeon
driver configured, things get worse.  It still doesn't start, and I lose
my keyboard and have to lean on the power button to get control back.

I removed the bootchart stuff, no difference.

The Xorg.0.log files I saved are too big to send to the list (in fact,
the list moderator bounced them back to me with no personal explanation
of why).  So, I'm putting them on my home server.  They can be found here:

http://kjchome.homeip.net:81/Xorg.0.log.none
http://kjchome.homeip.net:81/Xorg.0.log.radeon

I suppose I should open a bug against the radeon driver in bugzilla and
attach them there.

 2a) VESA has lots of problems returning to a proper video mode.  If I
 run dosbox in full-screen mode, when it returns to X11, the resolution
 is less than stellar.  Its the same size, but it seems like every other
 pixel is missing.  Heck, All I have to do is switch to a diferent
 virtual console, and X11 is hosed when I return to it.  Even the color
 pallette seems to be changed.  I have to logout and restart the X server
 to get it back.

I tried the VESA driver without nomodeset.  Things get worse.

I will open a bug against the VESA driver as well.

[snip]

6) I found that alsa-plugins-pulseaudio was an i686 RPM on my system.
I installed the x86_64 version, and some sound problems went away.  I
was actually amazed at how mush was actually working without it being
the correct architecture.

7) Eclipse bombs out on me.  Whenever I bring up an old project and
either try and edit it, or run make (build) on it, java dies and eclipse
aborts.  I've tried submitting a bug report with ABRT, but it tries to
download 173 debuginfo packages and ends up aborting itself (it can't
either find something or rebuild something).

8) I found/fixed a problem with KDUMP, but that wasn't working for me on
F12 either.

9) Suspend works (probably because I'm using the VESA video driver), but
aborts when resuming.  I haven't looked into why yet.

10) Hibernate seems to work OK, but I've not done enough testing with it
to be sure.

 Suggestions welcome.

Thank you for this warning.  I will try this on my Thinkpad A22p and see what 
happens.  It has a much older Rage 3D chipset.

Re: i8kuitls bug makes impossible use of F14 on Dell Latitude D820

2010-11-16 Thread Darr

 With i8krellm I always kept the CPU temperature below 48 degrees C.
 True - fans run a lot. But again, fan is a cheap part.

I could never get the i8k plugin for GKrellem to work...  seemed like it was 
looking for its files in the wrong subdirectory or something. That was a few 
versions ago, and I don't have that i8200 any more.  But I did replace the 
dual fan that sucked air over the CPU's heat-piped sink-to-radiator then 
blew it out the back, and while the fan was only $5 on ebay (and it appeared 
new, though I don't know how to prove that), I can assure you it was no 
small job. It takes 3 to 6 hours, depending on how many times you've done 
it. I also replaced the fan on my wife's 8200, and got it down to 4 hours 
the second time.

mplayer-export

2010-11-16 Thread JD
When I unpacked the rpm source package
x264-0.0.0-0.28.20100706gitd058f37.fc14.src.rpm
I found that it contains
mplayer-export-2010-07-03.tar.bz2

So, my question is how is
mplayer-export-2010-07-03.tar.bz2
different to
mplayer-2010-07-03.tar.bz2 (just guessing the tarball's name);
in other words, is there a not-for-export version of mplayer
and where can I get it?
