Kernel kernel-2.6.33.6-147.2.4.fc13.x86_64 death
by 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
by 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

Better Firefox fonts?
by Alex
Hi,
Quite often the fonts in a web page, or printing something from within
Firefox looks blurred. Here is a sample screenshot:

It's a random page I chose to exhibit the problem. Printing web pages
also looks like crap, but perhaps that's something to do with the
printing system?
Is it possible this is instead the driver for my video card? I'm using
a dual-head HD5700:
[ 35.548] (--) PCI:*(0:6:0:0) 1002:68b8:174b:e147 ATI Technologies
Inc Juniper [Radeon HD 5700 Series] rev 0, Mem @ 0xd0000000/268435456,
0xfe9e0000/131072, I/O @ 0x0000e000/256, BIOS @ 0x????????/131072
[112179.601] (II) RADEON(0): Modeline "1680x1050"x0.0 146.25 1680
1784 1960 2240 1050 1053 1059 1089 -hsync +vsync (65.3 kHz)
Are there other driver choices for this card with FC13, like perhaps
one that supports the 3D acceleration?
In any case, I recall seeing a doc that described how to install the
Windows TT fonts, but can't find it now. I believe it was also for an
older version.
Thanks,
Alex
