developing LSB-certified applications

[Hiisi]

Hi, list!
In ubuntu repositories there's a package called lsb-dev. The package
includes lsbcc to compile lsb-3.1 compatible applications. yum search
provides only redhat-lsb on fedora 16 and there's no such thing as
lsbcc. Lsb-plugin for eclipse doesn't work on my system. What is the
best way to develop lsb-compatible applications on fedora? Currently
my c++ application doesn't pass test by lsb-check-app utility, mainly
because a lot of non-lsb-libraries included during compilation.

Definitely we need to add some mess in version names. How about 'Fedora One'??

[Roger]

I was browsing a site in Firefox and a page black site with a green logo 
opened that said "Hacked by Nobody".


I read about the Nobody group in the Daniel Domsschiet-Berg book "Inside 
Wikileaks" but do not know the relevance for me seeing that web page.

Can someone please explain this, is it something to be concerned about?
If so what steps should I take?

There is nothing on my pc of any interest to any one and I can find no 
key loggers of note. I do not know what else to look for.
I am working in a voluntary capacity on a remote server setting up a 
number of drupal sites, would these be in danger please?



Thanks in advance

Did you modify the /lib/systemd/system/vncserver@1.service file 
to change the  to the id of the user to run the vncserver 
on?

What does 
rpm -qa | grep vnc 
show?

I get 7 lines, with 5 being tiger-vnc packages.

How did you remove nomodset?
You need to edit /etc/default/grub file to remove the nomodset.
Then run: grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg

Aaron,

Thanks for the reply.  I had removed nomodeset from
the /etc/default/grub file.  I did generate grub.cfg in the manner you
suggested, but that did not fix the problem for me.  I still have it
removed, but the problem did not get fixed until I updated the new
kernel 3.3.0-8.fc16.x86_64, and then yum removed akmod-catalyst and
xorg-x11-drv-catalyst

Thanks to everyone for their help on this.

Greg

Technically, F17 isn't released yet (it's not even an official beta 
yet--it's at Beta RC3) and this message should be aimed at the test list

(t...@lists.fedoraproject.org), not this forum.

However, my guess is that your yum config is aimed at the test repo AND
the F17 repo since the complaints are against a legitimate version
of the package and a git version.  There will possibly be conflicts in
those cases.

Really, take this to the test list I mention above and I'm sure they'll
help you.

I'm testing out some Ruby packages on F17 and I'm finding that all the

Glad to help. Since the new drive is being mounted on /home (I think

you should be able to "restorecon /home" (as the root user) to get

The numbers look right for the WEST time zone (western Europe savings

"hwclock" always reports in local time, regardless if your hardware
clock is set to UTC or not (read the man page if you don't believe me).
You need to look at /etc/sysconfig/clock to see how your hardware clock
is set. If "UTC" is "true", then your hardware clock is using UTC.

Note that F14 was EOL'ed quite a few weeks back. To stay up to date with
bugfixes you should be on F15 or F16.

How did you remove nomodset?
You need to edit /etc/default/grub file to remove the nomodset.
Then run: grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg

Check and see if you're getting SELinux denials. Unless you used "cp -a" 
or "cp --preserve=all" simply copying files doesn't copy the

SELinux contexts.

Problem starting vncserver - but only during reboot

[Lets Go Canes]

Once my Fedora 16 system has finished booting, I can login over a ssh session, 
and as root issue the command "systemctl start vncserver@:1.service", and it 
starts vncserver without any issues.

However, during boot, vncserver fails to start.


the service is enabled:

# systemctl is-enabled vncserver@:1.service
enabled


I get the following messages in /var/log/mesages:

# grep vnc /var/log/messages
Apr  4 15:35:18 rtpxentst1 systemd[1011]: Failed at step USER spawning 
/usr/bin/vncserver: No such process

exited, code=exited status=217
Apr  4 15:35:18 rtpxentst1 systemd[1]: Unit vncserver@:1.service entered failed

Any suggestions?

Re: Fedora 16 / gnome3 / ATI Technologies Inc Device 9648 (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]

[Gregory P. Ennis]

Everyone,

Just when I was getting accustomed to gnome3, and liking it, my system
switched to fallback mode automatically.  I thought the problem was
something I had done, and when I tried to fix it I only made things much
worse and eventually even broke yum.  I decided to start over with a new
install, but I have not been able to fix the problem.  Of course it is
easy to blame a kernel update, but I have not seen any other posts that
specifically address this.  

This machine is an HP laptop (AMD A4-3300M APU with Radeon(tm) HD
Graphics × 2) with ATI Technologies Inc Device 9648 (prog-if 00 [VGA
controller].

At the time of the fresh install gnome3 would not work, and
automatically dropped back to fail safe mode.  

In the manner that I did on the original install I did the following :

#1. Install of akmod-catalyst xorg-x11-drv-catalyst from rpmfusion
#2. Removal of nomodeset from grub2.cfg

gnome-shell has been installed :
Package gnome-shell-3.2.2.1-1.fc16.x86_64 already installed and latest
version

I am still unable to boot to gnome3 without going to failsafe mode; your
help would be appreciated.

Thank you,

Greg Ennis

Everyone,

The new kernel just released 3.3.0-8.fc16.x86_64 fixes the problems with
this ATI 9648 controller.  I now have gnome3 working on F16.  After the
installation of the new kernel my laptop failed to present the login
screen; all that appeared was a black screen, but I could access the
laptop remotely with a terminal interface.  

I had to yum remove akmod-catalyst as well and xorg-x11-drv-catalyst.
After these were removed and When I rebooted I was able to get into
gnome3.

Greg

Quite frankly, what's in a name, so why change it?

It's because in the old scheme when a machine had several ports the

the kernel would just assign names as it found interfaces.  This
caused a fair bit of inconvenience.


 From my side, I have a "no longer supported" SW product that

Turns out I just converted the image to virtualbox format and used that.

NetworkManager connecting during boot

[chritallic]

Hey,

I've just switched to Fedora and I have an issue that I couldn't solve 
myself yet. When I boot my Fedora 16 (x64) system, it takes quite some 
time till I can log-in after almost all seems to be setup. According to 
the kernel log the reason for this is that NetworkManager (NM) wait's 
until it successfully set up a wlan connection. It takes of course even 
longer if NM cannot connect to any network.


Is there a way to let systemd finish the initialization without waiting 
for NM to finish the establishment of the connection?


I really link having NM negotiating the connection before I log-in, but 
on the other hand I can't see any benefits when the boot process is 
stopped during that time.


Thank you!

[389-users] Audit log - clear text password in user changes

I have an 389 DS (version 1.2.10.2)  with AD replication and I enabled the

in the audit log file:

modifiersname:

 t
-
replace: modifytimestamp
modifytimestamp: 20120404143336Z
-
replace: unhashed#user#password
unhashed#user#password: maisumteste
-

Is the expected behavior? Can I configure to just not show the unhashed
password? Because I need the audit log.

Instead of compiling the tool you should install it from the official

OK we need to know more about your wireless device.
Need you to post output of lspci or lsusb depending if your wireless
device is a mini pci card or a usb dongle.

In this case, I can offer something radical:
If the application still supports Windows 2K, ebay for a used copy of
Windows 2K and install it under VirtualBox (no use in wasting an
expensive VMWare license for that) and limit the use of this VM to the
trading application and nothing else.
In my experience, if you limit the Windows 2K usage to a single
application and surround it with a good firewall (saving the need to
install A/V and F/W software on the VM), you'll get host-like
performance - even on a low end netbook.

It certainly appears to do the trick :-)  All my ifcfg-eth0 and ifcfg-eth0:xx

I applaud the wish to have consistent naming.

I wish to have a consistent name for a given MAC address, and I wish that to be 
eth0.

There is clearly a mechanism for this, since an upgrade (rather than a clean 
install) appears to do it.  But it seems to be buried many layers deep in udev 
spells :-(

OK... well, it's not remotely convenient.  I *really* do not want to go through 
all the places where I expect (a) to use eth0 or (b) recode stuff that expects 
an interface name to be [a-z]+[0-9]+.

It's a wonderful idea to stop the name changing if a new interface is added... 
but everybody knows what eth0 is, and p32p1 is not as obvious.  I can see that 
there is a problem if interface 'x' is expected to be eth0 when interface 'y' 
already has that name.  So starting off with some "real" names which are so 
hugely inconvenient that nobody would want to use them (say 
"mac-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx") and then having a user accessible mapping to 
"effective" name would do the trick nicely.

I have found /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules and told it:

ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTR{address}=="xx:...:xx", 
KERNEL=="eth*", NAME="eth0"

but dmseg still says:

... udev [494]: renamed network interface eth0 to p32p1

Does anyone know how I map the [494] back to whatever rule it is that does this 
renaming ?

Thanks,

Chris

I've changed nothing lately that I'm aware of, and the logs don't seem to show

It's because in the old scheme when a machine had several ports the
mapping between the physical hardware and the dev nodes was not fixed:
the kernel would just assign names as it found interfaces.  This
caused a fair bit of inconvenience.

 Do you have a user_prefs filer in the .spamassassin directory in your
 home directory. That is needed to control the actions of spamassassin.
 Look to the spamassassin documentation to see how that works if you
 don't. On my machine spamassassin is wonderfully effective.
