Re: rpm option --import

2015-01-28 Thread Philip Keogh
What is the output of:
'rpm --version'
'yum info rpm' and
'cat /etc/issue' ?

 Hope the devs lurking on this list see this
 and look into other undocumented options and
 document them in the man page.

 I gamble that there are many *nix* and *nux* man pages
 and help menus that have this issue.

Did you ensure light-locker was removed, along with the
light-locker.desktop entry in the autostart folder?



Fedora 21 xfce uses xflock4 actually - it hasn't shifted to light-locker
(a gnome-screensaver fork) as Xubuntu did. xscreensaver is also
installed, and has a -lock option which may be utilized elsewhere too.

If you have info on a fedora cdemu for fedora, please

The cdemu team recommends using alien to convert the DEB 
packages to 

RPM and
then tweaking the resulting post-install scripts as needed:
http://cdemu.sourceforge.net/project/

You could also just download the tarballs and follow the 
directions in 

the
INSTALL files provided.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/cdemu/


I found the fc19 source files and built them on fc21
without a hitch, and installed them:

$ rpm -qa | egrep 'libmirage|cdemu-daemon|vhba|cdemu'
cdemu-client-2.1.0-3.1.fc21.noarch
libmirage-2.1.0-3.1.fc21.x86_64
vhba-20130607-1.1.fc21.x86_64
libmirage-devel-2.1.0-3.1.fc21.x86_64
cdemu-daemon-2.1.0-1.1.fc21.x86_64

After installation, I rebooted.

When I run the daemon, it bombs as follows:

# cdemu-daemon -b system -a alsa -n 2
Starting CDEmu daemon with following parameters:
 - num devices: 2
 - ctl device: /dev/vhba_ctl
 - audio driver: alsa
 - bus type: system

WARNING: using CDEmu on system bus is deprecated and might 
lead to 
security issues on multi-user systems! Consult the README 
file for more 
details.


cdemu0: Kernel I/O: failed to open control device 
/dev/vhba_ctl: No such 
file or directory!

cdemu: Daemon: failed to start device #0!
cdemu: Daemon: failed to create device!
Daemon initialization and start failed!

And of course, cdemu client dies:

# cdemu -b system add-device
ERROR: Failed to connect to CDEmu daemon: 
org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name 
net.sf.cdemu.CDEmuDaemon was not provided by any .service 
files

ERROR: Failed to connect to daemon (bus: 'system')!

So, what's missing here?




What does the .cdemu-daemon.log show?

If it is a signing issue, this link may help:

Is the /dev/vhba_ctl device present?
Does 'lsmod' show the vhba module loaded? Did you try modprobe on it?

You'll likely want to use a DKMS build to ensure it gets recompiled each
time you recompile/update the kernel.

Of course this should never be used in production or exposed to the
internet, but there is a repository you can use:
http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/archive/fedora/linux/releases/16/Everything/x86_64/os/

For help adding the repository to that version of Fedora, see
