middle click paste and vim

Is anyone else seeing this regression in Fedora 10 updates-testing? I have found on a Fedora 10 x86_64 box with the rpmfusion nvidia drivers installed that middle clicking to paste text in vim is no longer working properly. In the past, I have always been able to select some text in one gnome

fwbackups failure in Fedora 10

Is anyone else seeing this failure in fwbackups under Fedora 10? I find that when I start fwbackups, click on the One-Time Backup, select a directory in my user account and then select a directory on an external usb firewire drive (ext3) which I have write permission to that the backup fails

nvidia and Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig

To answer my own question, we finally pinned this issue down to the inappropriate use of LD_LIBRARY_PATH in a set of user accounts which was causing the wrong GL libraries to be used with the nvidia drivers. It is interesting that one gets the error... Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or

Re: Graphics card recommendation?

On two different Fedora 10 x86_64 boxes (one AMD and the other Intel based) both equipped with Radeon X1650 Pro graphics cards, the radeon driver has been a total nightmare. The fglrx drivers (which we have been using in the past) no longer are available for pre-HD radeon cards. The free radeon

reverting to DRI1 in F11?

Are there any flags for the video driver in the xorg.conf file that would revert the radeon drivers in Fedora 11 to the older DRI1 code or has that code been totally removed from the driver? I ask because the current radeon driver in rawhide still renders outside of the pymol viewer windows

Discovery Studio 1.7 restarts xserver

Does anyone else here have access to Discovery Studio 1.7? I am finding that when I try to start this program under x86_64 Fedora 10 under the radeon drivers using a X1650 Pro graphics card that the xserver restarts. There are no errors left behind in the messages log for this event but it is

Re: nVidia vs. ATI graphics card for fedora

Kevin, Our experience here with x86_64 Fedora 10 linux and the radeon drivers on a couple machines with Radeon X1650 Pro cards has been very uneven. One of the boxes is very fragile to spontaneous reboots when running the free drivers and using UCSF Chimera to work with MD trajectories. The

screen blanks with nomodeset

Is anyone else still having the stock ati drivers in Fedora 10 occasionally blank out the screen? I have been resorting to the use of the nomodeset kernel argument in an attempt to disable modesetting, but, while less frequent, the black screens still appear. Normally, it will return back to

Re: screen blanks with nomodeset

Chris, The worst part is that the fglrx drivers have stopped working on my machine with X1650 Pro graphics. The kernel level drivers seem to work okay, but when X starts up, I only get a black screen. This issue doesn't occur on a MacBook Pro with X1600 graphics so it appears to be specific to

black screen with fglrx drivers

Has anyone else had problems with the fglrx 9.2 and 9.3 drivers under x86_64 Fedora 10? I am finding that the rpmfusion rpms provide a functional graphics up to the point that X windows should start the server. At this point am stuck with a black screen and no particular error message in

pymol issues with fedora 10 testing

Is anyone else seeing these issues with Fedora 10 testing? I am seeing two problems. The first only occurs on x86_64 where when pymol is started for the first time upon each login (using the radeon drivers for X11), only the Pymol viewer window appears. The Pymol Tk window on the top never

AdobeReader_enu install_browser hang

Has anyone else run into this problem with the recent Fedora releases? I have noticed that over time many of my Fedora machines (both i386 and x86_64) develop problems with the AdobeReader_enu rpm installations. The problem always centers on the install_browser_plugin script that is executed

RE: update to xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.10.0-1.fc10.x86_64 breaks X

I found, after upgrading from Fedora 8 x86_64 to Fedora 10 x86_64, that the radeon driver support for my Radeon X1650 Pro graphics card seemed to work well except for one major problem. The X server seemed to have issues with mode resets at random intervals. The screen goes black and then comes

grubby fatal error unable to find a suitable template

While upgrading a Fedora 8 x86_64 system on a software RAID-1 mirror, I ran into a problem that prevents rpm from installing kernels in the grub.conf. The Fedora 10 upgrade of the Fedora 8 system completed without errors except that the upgraded boot loader didn't work but just presented the

RE: pymol vs Fedora 10

The problems with pymol crashing under Fedora 10 using the radeon drivers appear to be resolved now (at least in fedora-testing). FYI. Jack -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines:

dock condensing broken in Fedora 8

Has anyone else seen the following issue? After doing a long delayed yum update on Fedora 8, we are now finding that the Gnome dock no longer condenses icons in it. Prior to that update, after a certain number of entries in the dock, the windows for the same program would be overlaid so that

Re: usb plugins cause reboots

Doh! The problem appears to be that someone broke off the plastic sheath that covers the top of the contacts on that usb port. Without that tab of plastic, usb plugs apparently can short across the free standing contacts. Jack -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com

printing to Bonjour printers under Fedora 9?

Is there decent support in Fedora 9 for printing to Bonjour printers? I understand that avahi is supposed to provide that functionality. However the HJ Deskjet I have attached to an Apple Airport Extreme basestation via usb and exposed as a Bonjour printer doesn't show up in the Printer setup

Re: printing to Bonjour printers under Fedora 9?

I was able to connect to the Bonjour printer after enabling the mDNS access on the firewall and installing the missing avahi-tools package. Hopefully this package can be installed by default in Fedora 10 and later to limit the effort required to getting Bonjour access working. Jack

f9 wireless reconnection problems

I am seeing a problem under Fedora 9 x86_64 with the madwifi wireless drivers in use. What I find is that on occasion the wireless connection will drop and the NetworkManager will attempt to reconnect to the wireless network. However this process always fails as follows. A dialog appears saying

rawhide and PCI: No MMCONFIG

Is anyone running rawhide having this problem? I updated a MacBook Pro from Fedora 10 to development and the current kernel-2.6.26-0.131.rc9.git9.fc10.x86_64 fails to boot with an error PCI: No MMCONFIG. Is MMCONFIG support broken across the board in that kernel? I can boot under the current

xorg.conf font setting kills gnome

I ran into an issue with the xorg.conf settings under Fedora 9 this week which was pretty painful to debug. We found one Fedora 9 machine which had stopped allowing users to log into the gnome desktop. The desktop background would appear but the login would freeze. Oddly the KDE logins worked

F9 and MacBook Pro v2,1 audio?

Has anyone had luck with audio under Fedora 9 on a MacBook Pro v2,1 machine? I had audio working for a short while by updating all of the alsa packages in F9 to build with the latest 1.0.17rc tarballs and building/installing the 1.0.17rc3 alsa-drivers. This was with the Sound settings all set
