An help would be great! Sorry for replying with a link, but please read instructions at: [1] http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/Networking [2] http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Getting_started_with_virtualization#Networking_Support [3] http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/Networking I assume that you're interested in "public bridge" scenario, that is your guest can connect to the network and other hosts can reach the guest host. You also want to have static IP assigned to your guest OS. Solution is that you configure your bridge networking according to instructions in 1, 2, 3 and then set up static IP addresses on network interfaces inside your guests. It's up to guest host how (static vs dynamic) its network interfaces are configured.

kernel floppy driver is broken?
When I do (at F17 i686 kernel 3.5.2) high-level FAT floppy disc
format ("mformat a:" which work with /dev/fd0), then mformat process
will remain forever in uninterruptible sleep state, thus is
non-killable. Ejecting floppy not solve this too, and it seems as
machine reboot is only solution (I'd like to mislead).
Although this situation is perhaps induced by some defect on floppy
disc, it seems as floppy driver is broken. Should it have some efect
bugreport this issue, or fd is dead kernel module yet?

Re: virsh and libvirtd
what confuses is that the .XML examples have ipaddresses and the guest has definitions and the host has definitions. so if you define a fix IP in the lirtlib .XML should your guest define the same address? would you say the .XML is the glue between the host and guest and must match? I think the libvirt examples lack the whole picture, but maybe its just me. I suppose if the thing just worked I would have cared less and never strived to understand. I do feel the libvirt doc is well done, maybe i just have holes in my understanding that would clear this up. gary On Sep 7, 2012 12:12 AM, "Mateusz Marzantowicz" wrote: > On 07.09.2012 06:02, gary artim wrote: > > I have a fedora system configured and running with virsh using > > kvm/qemu.

Keyboard Font problem -
I posted this two days ago and got no response. I find it hard to believe that I am the only one with this problem. Perhaps someone can try selecting "US International keyboard" and see if it can be unselected restoring "US English keyboard" again and keeping it upon reboot. This is really causing me a lot of inconvenience and I don't know how to fix it short of re-installing F-17. I could probably reset it after reboot with a simple script but I don't know how/where to select the keyboard setup from the command line that, would work around the problem 'til F-18 comes along. I have two F-17 64 bit computers in which once I selected "US International" keyboard under Administration > Keyboard that selection seems always to come up in reboot although the selection has been changed to "US English." That change takes effect once I go through the motion of changing it, that is to bring up the GUI menu and close it while doing nothing else, it already says US Keyboard is selected, apparently "closing" that menu restore the US settings until user bobg logs off, when I log on again I have to "fix" the keyboard. problem. I tried creating a new user "rfg" and logged off/on with the same problem. Any idea what is wrong?

Sound volume problems
Hi, I'm experiencing two annoying problems with the sound volume on my computer and I was wondering if anybody would have any helpful hints on solving them. First off, every once in a while the master volume seems to reset to a point where all sound output is clipping and distorted. Simply moving the volume slider in the taskbar a bit below and back to 100% fixes this but it keeps happening. I've also tried to fix the volume using alsamixer and then use alsactl to store the new settings, but that hasn't helped. Second, the output volume of certain applications also seems to drop to a lower level than others randomly. I've noticed this happening to Flash player from Chrome and VLC but I'm not sure if it's exclusive to them. This is occurring with both the internal soundcard (snd_hda_codec) and another internal soundcard (snd_ca0106), so I doubt it's a hardware/driver-specific problem.

how to make thunderbird use utf-8?
Hi all, This may be a bit OT but I know where the geniuses lurk. Whenever I send an email using Thunderbird the following header is always included: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed How do I change it to charset=UTF-8? I have climbed throughout about:config and changed/re-ordered everything that mentions ISO-8859-1 to UTF-8 and still all outbound mail contains the undesired header information. I think that header causes Latin-Extended to show up as blobs with a ? inside; here's one: ¢ Should be a US cent sign. Or am I looking in the wrong place? Locale or something? Anybody have any suggestions?

Upgrading from F16 to F17 fails
It fails after it displays that the installed fedora 16 will be upgraded, and I click next. I filed the bug with redhat bugzilla but when I logged in to my bugzilla accout I do not see the bug listed in "My Bugs" list. I ran the self check for the DVD and it passed. I checked the sha256 sum of the iso downloaded and it checked out just fine with the contents of the Fedora-17-i386-CHECKSUM file. The failure to upgrade is repeatable in exactly the same way. It seems that when I click Next to proceed with the upgrade, it crashes and dumps the stack. The stack shows that it was trying to unmount the root dir of the currently installed fc16, and it failed to do that, and bailed out. -- 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?

mysqldump on Fedora 16 slightly OT
HI I'm hoping Arjen or another mysql guru can help me with a mysql command line entry. I got this command line from Google mysql mydb1 -u user -p password -e 'select tables like "field_data_field%"'| xargs | mysqldump -u user -p password d7x Where mydb1 is a Mysql database on my pc, a mysqldump of the server database, which has several tables I do need to copy: field_data_field, node, taxonomy, user and role to the d7x (drupal 7)database on my pc. I need to copy table structure and content. Apparently the tables are too big for phpmyadmin which seems to be particularly limited to miniscule amounts of data. The command line runs, produces terminal output of each table but puts nothing into the tables of the d7x database. I could copy a table one at a time but there are about 35 and a typo could wreck things. -- 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?

Accessing fedora on LAN by hostname
Hi all, on my home LAN network, there are 2 fedora computers. The problem is that I'm unable to access one from the another by hostname. So, for example, when I'm mounting a NFS share, I've to use the IP address. The same issue is with ping, ssh, etc. What do I need to configure to make resolving by hostname on LAN work? Thank you very much.
