The Gmail Team Its phishing spam - noone real will ever ever ever ask for your passowrd. Look at the full headers (in thunderbird press control U) it will be obvious ... also gmail signs their outgoing email with dkim so you can verify it. gene -- 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
Help w. R texlive install
I'm running F12. I use texlive - however, the fedora version is too old (2007) and since I coordinate with others in writing papers - all of who use texlive 2009 - I have compatibility problems. (e.g. no biblatex, problems with natbib style files etc) So I installed the upstream 2009 texlive - which works perfectly and exactly the same as everyone else! Problem is I also need to install R - it has texlive as a dependency and doesn't see the already installed texlive - what is the right way to install R - but without it dragging in any fedora based texlive ? The only way I could think of was to hand install using rpm all the packages for R and its dependencies with --force but skipping the texlive ones - is there a better way ? thanks gene -- 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
pinentry-gtk segfaulting
I use penentry-gtk with gpg-agent. It has been crashing ever since I went from f11 to f12. The passphrase window pops up - soon as i move mouse to be in the window - it tells me in red text 'bad passphrase' .. window flicks and comes up new - then I can type in and all is well. If the mouse is in the popup when it starts there is no crash. Abort was catching these - it stopped aftrer I upgraded to 2.6.32 kernel. /var/log/messages shows this: kernel: pinentry-gtk-2[23746]: segfault at 84 ip 00365b 872a73 sp 7fffcca67be0 error 4 in libgdk-x11-2.0.so.0.1800.6[365b80+b6000] kernel: Process 23746(pinentry-gtk-2) has RLIMIT_CORE set to 0 gene/ -- 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/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines

Shows no speed information either - this is iwl4965 - there have been a ton of driver improvements in 2.6.32 so I suspect trying the newer kernel is the next step. I can confirm that the 2.6.32 kernel fixes this and the speed is once again reported- I am hopeful it will fix the bug triggered by large traffic flow as well. Works now in both iwlist wlan0 rate as well as nm-applet. gene -- 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/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
