There are many problems with mplayer too. I have faced slow rendering sometimes because mplayer failed to properly recognise the hardware. What I hate most is the complete lack of playing multiple streams. This ruins the experience for me when I want to play a concept album like "The Wall". Of course the work around there is to play an audio CD and not tracks in separate files. -- Suvayu Open source is the future.

Apparently, `file` doesn't recognize GRUB2 yet, as it outputs no information about what sort of bootloader is installed.

F16 Live install to 2nd hard disk, grub failure
On a Dell 745 with WinXP on the first disk, we added a second disk (SATA) and tried installing Fedora 16 i386 from the live CD to the second disk. During the install, the boot loader (grub) install was automatic with no prompts. After the install, the system still boots into Windows. Grub was installed on the 2nd disk, but must not have changed the MBR of the first disk. Toggling the bootable partition on the first disk did not fix the problem (no bootable partition was found when booting). Anyone have any ideas on this? For now, I am using the full version of Fedora which should properly install grub.

[389-users] Announcing 389 Directory Server version 1.2.10.2 Testing
The 389 Project team is pleased to announce the release of 389-ds-base-1.2.10.2. No new features were added after alpha 8, just many bug fixes. There are also 389-adminutil, 389-admin, and 389-dsgw packages in Testing. NEW: EL6 support Beginning with RHEL 6.2, the 389-ds-base package is included in the base OS. Therefore, the 389-ds-base package can no longer be provided via EPEL, due to RHEL/EPEL packaging restrictions. However, the 389 Project will still make the full 389-ds-base package available via http://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/rmeggins/389-ds-base. See http://directory.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Download for more information. NEW: Issue Tracking System We have moved our ticket tracking system from the Red Hat Bugzilla https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=389 to our Fedora Hosted Trac https://fedorahosted.org/389. All of the old 389 bugs have been copied to Trac. All new bugs, feature requests, and tasks should be entered in Trac This link shows all of the issues fixed in the 1.2.10 branch - https://fedorahosted.org/389/report/12 NEW: Plugin Authors WARNING: Plugins should be made transaction aware so that they can be called from within a backend pre/post transaction plugin.

You need specific filters for the device that you want to automatically connect. I'd not used USB filters in a long time since in early implementations I found it buggy. So, today I verified that it works as expected if you have those specific filters defined. Ed -- Do not condemn the judgment of another because it differs from your own.

It's that > problem which prompted my initial request for help. Perhaps the part that's confusing you is that a blank filter does not automatically grab the next inserted USB device. You have to tell it which device you want to use with the filter. If you *ALWAYS* want that USB device connected to a particular guest when it's running, then you should: 1. Plug it in 2. Run virtualbox and open the settings for the host 3. Add the USB device (not a blank filter, but the device itself). I can't remember if there's any check boxes to make it connect by default but that should do it. After that, if the device is plugged in when you start your guest it should automatically get connected. I'm not sure what will happen if you start the guest first and then plug in the USB device.

The Chromium source distribution should contain a shell script to start Chromium. Google's official builds include this in /opt/google/chrome and hardlink it to /usr/bin/google-chrome to start the browser. This is done as part of the build process even for non-official builds, so it's very strange you don't have it. You can find the wrapper script in the Chromium source distribution here: http://src.chromium.org/viewvc/chrome/trunk/src/chrome/tools/build/linux/chrome-wrapper?view=markup Simply copy it to the main Chrome directory and then hardlink it to /usr/bin. -T.C. -- 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 Have a question?

About the given URL, we can't use the utility of the debugging, because the crash can occurs once in two or three months, and is in our production server. Can you at least enable core files to be generated and saved? If this is the only information we have to go on, we will not be able to find the solution to this problem. Finally, 1.2.10.1 is in epel-testing - it should be more stable than 1.2.9.9 - 1.2.10.2 should be out today or tomorrow which is more stable. Thanks.

Making a shared library executable outside the shell
I have built Chromium from source, and currently the only way to start the browser is to execute the shared library file 'chrome' from shell. I would like to be able to launch it from the normal menu like my other applications, but I do not really know how to do this. Simply creating a symlink in bin breaks dependencies (browser crashes due to inability to load related libraries), and I am not really good enough at shell-work to figure out what else could be done. It is further not possible to launch the file from a normal file browser (system reports that it has no application for handling shared libraries). Any solution to this? Thanks in advance!

YouTube recently defaulted to WebM (as someone else pointed out), and in my experience it works just fine. The same should be possible for a majority of other interactive web features, it is simply a question of investment from the responsible companies, and these things of course are bound to take time. Even so, I think progress towards a genuinely open web experience is going alright. -- 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 Have a question?

Huh! No flash => quitting university? Really? I am also a university student, but I rarely have to visit any website for university business/research where I absolutely need flash. -- Suvayu Open source is the future.
