The seemingly small different between GPL and LGPL (with or w/o the "plus") and/or the different between proprietary, BSD, GPLv2, GPLv3, etc can mean the difference of having a successful company and drowning under a shower of lawsuits, and in the case of an OSS project, the different between having multiple contributors and flourishing community and facing the wrong end of multiple cease and desist letters. (In this case, one of the main reasons LibreOffice was founded was due to Sun's Contributor licensing agreement) Even as an end user, I'd strongly advise against treating licenses as anything trivial.

I believe, to identify a problem, one needs to isolate the problem. To this end, what calendar(s) were you working with just before it failed? If they were local calendars, can you move them out of the way, until you identify which local calendar causes the problem, and then examine that calendar to see what might be causing the problem? I would strongly encourage you to make a backup before moving files. It would be bad if my suggestion made matters worse. If they are calendars from the Internet, can you bring up korganizer with your PC not connected to the Internet--korganizer will fail to get to the internet, but you might be able to disable the Internet calendar. If disabling an Internet calendar stops the crashing, we get a hint. Once the calendar(s) causing problems can be identified, others may have hints what is causing the crashing problem. Also, when it crashes, I assume abrt wants to make a report. Do the details of the report give a hint why korganizer is crashing? The hint may have no meaning to me, but might help a developer. With the hint, one might google to see what others did to fix similar problems. I wish I could give you an answer. I'm afraid I can only suggest isolating the problem. Hopefully others, who have used kde longer or develop kde will recognize the problem and suggest a fix or workaround. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines

I would strongly advise you not to mix rawhide and stable releases. If you need libreoffice right now in f14, uninstall openoffice packages and use the rpms from the libreoffice site.

It seems that it's not correctly displayed in the plot window. However,
once you export the plot with e.g.

the symbols are correctly shown in the resulting file.

When it comes to licensing or anything legal for that matter, it helps to be precise. If you don't care about that, fine but I don't want to add to the confusion that already exists LGPL and GPL despite related to each other but one cannot equate the two Even GPLv2 and GPLv3 has a big difference in dealing with patents for instance.

Odds are the module (or something it calls) can't be found on cron's limited path.

korganizer crash
Dear all, today after an attempt of adding a new calendar korganizer has crashed and from that moment on it is impossible to access to the GUI and to my data. Doesn't a matter if I launch it from the tray, from the commandline or from the menu. When I try to launch it I get the following message: >korganizer >KCrash: Application 'korganizer' crashing... KCrash: Attempting to start /usr/libexec/kde4/drkonqi from kdeinit sock_file=/home/cazzola/.kde/socket-surtur/kdeinit4__0 and the KDE crash handler starts but no way to send a track bug (the crash handler itself crashes). I've tried to cancel the sockets files, the configuration files and to clear the cache but without success. korganizer has always worked (up to this morning) and contains all my appointments and I'd like to have it working again. Any suggestion?

New logwatch module not working in cron
I wrote a new logwatch module for vnstat and put it in /etc/logwatch/scripts/services. If I run logwatch from the command line, it works fine. When cron runs it, the vnstat module doesn't run. The module is extremely simple - all it does is run the vnstat command. There are no errors being reported. All I get is an empty begin/end section for vnstat in the email from logwatch. I know it's not selinux because I originally had problems with that and I fixed that with a local selinux module for vnstat. I also specifically have the full path to the vnstat command in the logwatch vnstat script. Anyone have any clues on fixing this?

Wireless Adapter Issues
Hi, I have an Acer Aspire 4720z. It has an Atheros Communications Inc. AR5001 Wireless Network Adapter. When I first installed F14 the wireless was working fine. About a week later it stopped working. Even when it says that wireless is enabled, it does not see any wireless networks. If I use the soft button on my keyboard to swap the network lock, the hard lock will change to disabled, and nothing is able to change it back. I have tried reinstalling Fedora, searched online for similar experiences and tried using rfkill, yet nothing seems to work. Any help would be appreciated.

This isn't Windows. One of the better things about Linux is how things are installed. You can check the RPM before installation, to see what it contains and where it will put it. Packages are signed, as part of the fight against tampering and forgeries, and this signing is checked. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.

Then mplayer reads the meta data, and gets the stream referenced by it. The link works here, when I use the playlist option: mplayer -playlist http://www.radiotunisienne.tn/popup/rtci.asx However, it did need to take 15-25 seconds filling the cache up, first.

Otherwise, it'll try IPv6 before IPv4, and if it gets snagged with an IPv6 problem, it may not get unsnagged. I've seen that happen. But, mostly, it just speeds up the process of attempting to connect, by not trying something that's not going to work. -prefer-ipv4 (network only) Use IPv4 on network connections.

Using it for what? Reading HTML files, or something else? Usually, you can right-click on one of the types of files you want to configure options for, and the pop-up properties window gives you a list of open-with choices. I don't know of a central manage all my filetype options for Nautilus either, and there are times where it would be useful. Especially if you could simply back up its configuration file, and import it later on (restoring settings, or cloning settings on other installations). -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
