Evo 2.32, FC 14 and exchange

2010-11-08 Thread William John Murray
   Hello all,
   I have upgraded FC13->14 and find evolution no longer
displays Exchange (OWA) calendars. Or at least it does for 5 seconds
before issuing half a dozen messages saying:

'The evolution calendar has quit unexpectedly'
or memo, or tasks.

I tried to run debug scripts I last used in 2008 and find that
evolution-data-server is completely remodelled, E2K_DEBUG=4 tells me
nothing etc. I cannot even work out which process is dying.

  Can anyone tell me where to look please?
 Bill

Kernel kernel-2.6.33.6-147.2.4.fc13.x86_64 death

2010-09-01 Thread William John Murray
  Hello all,
 Has anyone else the same problem as me? The latest kernel,
kernel-2.6.33.6-147.2.4.fc13.x86_64 does not boot. The grub 'choose
kernel screen starts and then everything goes black, the monitor goes to
sleep and the machine hangs there.
  If I take of "rhgb quiet " to see what is happening I just cannot -
about a page of text appears, flashes off screen and it goes black.
So I do not know how to debug this.

This is F13 on a Intel(R) Core 2 Duo E6750 cpu.

  Any ideas anyone?
Thanks,
 Bill

NetworkManager wont start eth0

2010-09-01 Thread William John Murray

  Hello all,
   I have a problem with my Network Manager. Its been broken for a
couple of weeks, not sure when.
   The computer is static, but I use NM to run the pptp package.
However, at the moment if I start NM it has the 'enable networking' box
greyed out and will not start. This might be to do with a bridge network
used for internal KVM guests - but it was all playing fine a month or
two ago. If I don't use NM all works fine.
  I tried deleting the eth0 from system-config-network. I don't like to
do the same for the Br  as I am not sure how to remake it. But I can try
if people think I should. It was a bit fiddly making the host machine
export NFS disks to the guests; I think I needed this for that.
  Any suggestions?
   Thanks,
   Bill

OpenAFS on Fedora laptop

2010-06-15 Thread William John Murray

   Hello all,
   I run openafs on my Fedora laptop. Works very nicely.
However, there is one problem: the startup scripts come up before NM has
had a chance to open any interfaces, so it seems no internet and
switches off at boot time. I can hack the scripts to ignore this and
bring it up anyway - in which case it works like a charm. But I have to
remember to re-hack any time there is an update.
  Is there a good reason the default is not to start with no I/F? 
   How can I avoid having to do this every so often?

  Thanks,
   Bill

  Thanks Phil,
That works. Odd, I don't remember having to do that before.
Unfortunately it doesn't fix the boot problem. yes, the kvm is made, but
the VM's still refuse to boot.
   Clearly I am the only person seeing this boot failure as otherwise
theere would be load screams. Does anyone else see the VM look up gPXE
before grub gets called? That also is new and may be releated my
failure?

Could not initialize KVM, will disable KVM support

This may be related to the following boot messages:

Maybe my kqemu is out of date. The rpm I have, from rpmfusion, is:

  Is there a b etter verison?

FC13 and (k)qemu

2010-05-26 Thread William John Murray

  Dear Fedora,
   qemu appears to have a problem in FC13. None of my VM's boots
anymore from hard disk (I can boot using a rescue CD as a drive)

  They all start listing gPXE information (odd, that never used to
appear in FC12) and then say 
   Booting from Hard Disk
   Grub loading stage 2
  and stick like that for ever.

I tried making a new VM, but the symptoms are the same.

   Any ideas anyone?
 Thanks,
Bill

fc13 intel graphics, dual head problem

2010-05-26 Thread William John Murray
vga1  Hello there,
   I am having a problem with a dual-head setup in FC13. It
worked until a few days ago:
  * intel 82Q35 graphics, i915 controller
  * SAMSUNG syncmaster 743 and HP LP1965 displays, both 1280x1024.

The problem is that the Samsung is fine by itself but with the HP (DVI1)
connected too then the Samsung (VGA1) is not recognised and I cannot set
resolution above 1024x768.

xorg.0.conf has very little feedback - just lists Modelines for
1024x768 to 640x480. As I said, disconnecting the HP allows it to find
1280x1024 on the Samsung - and all the model information etc. That is
simply missing when both are connected.

   Any ideas please?
  Thanks,
  Bill

Re: Gnome login failure with latest kernel

  Thanks for the suggestions.

  It turns out it was something in my .gconf/desktop

   This is rather serious, but probably very personal to my settings.

Gnome login failure with latest kernel

2010-03-09 Thread William John Murray

  Hello all,
  My desktop machine does not log in under gnome using 2.6.32
kernel. No error in /var/log/messages or Xorg.o , just a complete hang
I need to reboot. 
   The previous 2.6.31 kernel is fine.

I can log in level 3, but with graphics mode, I get to type in username
and password and a few seconds later it freezes.

   Any ideas?

Suspend fails on Dell with 2.6.32

2010-03-09 Thread William John Murray

  Hello all,
  Suspend was working well on a Dell E6400 until 2.6.32

Now the I915 driver for the 'Intel Mobile 4 series integrated graphics'
produces errors like:

Mar  9 09:39:49 hepntl141 kernel: render error detected, EIR: 0x
Mar  9 09:39:56 hepntl141 kernel: [drm:i915_hangcheck_elapsed] *ERROR*
Hangcheck timer elapsed... GPU hung
Mar  9 09:39:56 hepntl141 kernel: render error detected, EIR: 0x
Mar  9 09:39:56 hepntl141 kernel: [drm:i915_do_wait_request] *ERROR*
i915_do_wait_request returns -5 (awaiting 293412 at 293313)

and logs me off. Sometimes there is a message about failing to start a
second monitor, usually it just fails. There is no suspend - the laptop
sits there on, and closed.

  Any ideas anyone?
Thanks,
  Bill

  I am not sure that will work. It depends upon what application you
use. In Fedora 11 my Dell integrated cam 'just worked'; in F12 the 'evo'
web conference tool doesn't seem to recognise it - I get an error about
'no openGL found'
   If you have problems, and can find a 'live' F11 to check with, it
might be worth testing.

Thanks to everyone,
  I found it, using the idea of making a tar file - thanks
Mogens. [I don't know why booting of a USB system didn't have the same
affect. Maybe I was careless]
   The tar file was 60Gb, so I actually made it and inspected it and
found that the problem was:
   * I have a big USB disk
   * I Make a nightly backup to this disk of /home /etc for 2 machines.
   * As it is USB. gnome mounts it under /media WHEN I LOG IN
   * If the machine reboots without my log in the USB is not mounted
   * The autobackup rsync looks for and fails to find /media/backup  
  - so it makes a new one WHICH IS in /
   * I did not regard and of the /media/ directories as part of / so
missed it.

So now I better fix the mounting of USB drives with /etc/fstab,
   Bill

Thanks for all the suggestions. The dead links (lsof | grep deleted) is
very interesting - I have 49 of them, which seems bad, mostly /tmp files
from a
 "gnome-terminal -ssh XXX.YYY"
which are all 3Mb. However, this is only 150MB, I am hunting for 30GB.
Rebooting should remove all such, and makes no difference.

Chris Smart asked what 'du' I had tried. 'It was 'du -sh'. Note that it
agreed well with baobob so I thought that made it trustworthy.

   Any more ideas? I guess I could copy the filesystem contents to
another disk and back, I have the space for that, but it seems a little
over-the-top. And it may well come back...
Bill

Disk usage error

2010-01-19 Thread William John Murray

  Hello all,
 Can anyone help me with a disk usage problem? I have a disk
partition of 65GB in LVM; df says:

/dev/dm-0 65570580  60494828   1744888  98% /

However, if I use either du or Baobab they reckon the directories in it
add up to 30Gb or so. As it is my root directory, and there are various
others it is a little difficult to get the total, so I booted under
liveUSB and saw exactly the same - 30Gb used, but 98% full.
   So something is stealing half my disk. If I try to write more it is
out of space.

Dsik usage error

2010-01-12 Thread William John Murray

  Hello all,
 Can anyone help me with a disk usage problem? I have a disk
partition of 65GB in LVM; df says:

/dev/dm-0 65570580  60494828   1744888  98% /

However, if I use either du or Baobab they reckon the directories in it
add up to 30Gb or so. As it is my root directory, and there are various
others it is a little difficult to get the total, so I booted under
liveUSB and saw exactly the same - 30Gb used.
   So something is stealing half my disk. If I try to write more it is
out of space.
   Any ideas how I get my space back? fsck reports the disk is clean.
   Thanks,
 Bill
