gcj and Openoffice.org 1.9.X
by Caolán McNamara
I've some patches at http://people.redhat.com/caolanm/gcj/ to start off
building OOo 1.9.61 with gcj/gij as java replacement. If some people
with gcj/java expertise want to help make some progress at building the
up and coming OOo with gcj support the patches should help get it
started.
The crucial thing is to get the module xmlhelp built with gcj so that
building in helpcontent2 which uses xmlhelp will produce the help files.
In xmlhelp "extends sun.net.www.protocol.file.Handler" is a problem,
hacking around it currently leads to a crash in helpcontent2.
Minor issues are building the modified rhino module, and some odds and
ends in the wizards and qadev modules

stateless wants pxelinux.0
by Carlos Knowlton
Okay, next question: (and remember, this is in the name of helping
stateless (and clueless) newbies everywhere, so bear with me =)
I have stateless linux installed according with the tutorial
<http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/stateless/index.html>, and I'm attempting
to do a PXE boot on a diskless machine. The PC is able to get an IP
address, and then tries to get "pxelinux.0", and fails with a PXE-T01
and PXE-E3B. "pxelinux.0 isn't even located in the /tftpboot directory
anywhere. so I add it to where dhcpd.conf says it should be, in
"/tftpboot/linux-install/pxelinux.0", what's next? how do I set up
/tftpboot/linux-install/pxelinux.cfg/*"?
I probably missed something in the tutorial, but either way, any help is
welcome!
BTW, I love this concept of read-only root. The whole "Stateless Linux"
scheme is brilliant! I can hardly wait to actually get it working! :)
Best Regards,
Carlos

[PROBLEM] FC3 and Grub installation
by Srihari Vijayaraghavan
Please refer to this bugzilla bug:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=137789
Although the developer/maintainer is convinced that
this is no bug, I am afraid this is not so. (I am
sorry Jeremy.)
Here is the procedure I follow:
1. Install FC2 (yes, FC2) on /dev/hda1 and choose to
install Grub on MBR (/dev/hda)
2. Install the shiny new FC3 on /dev/hda2 (in my case
it was on /dev/hda16) and choose to install grub on
the first sector of /dev/hda2 rather than on MBR.
(Please ask me 'why', if you want to, but I am
convinced I am doing nothing wrong in this step.)
3. Configure FC2's grub to chain load FC3's grub.
4. And observe it does not work.
Could somebody tell me what am I doing wrong here?
And has anybody else seen this behaviour?
(I swear to God that I have followed this procedure
from the days of RH 6.0, SuSE 7.0, Debian 2 etc. and
never had a problem until FC3.)
Thank you.
Hari.

FC4 wishes
by Trever L. Adams
While everyone is adding there own. I add mine, which should be fairly
simple to add.
Right now, languages are system wide. I would like to see a list of
valid system wide languages (on my machine, this would be various
versions of US English, English, and various versions of Spanish). I
also would like a default. (All of this to this point may be there, it
seems it is... or maybe I hacked the files myself.)
However, what isn't there is the ability to change languages on a user,
by user basis. While what I am about to suggest isn't enforceable beyond
a config tool (i.e. someone can hack the files), I would like this list
given to the user (under Gnome or KDE preferences, not system tools,
etc.) to be limited to languages that were set as OK in the above
paragraph. (I currently just have the bash_profile set the LANG
environment variable.)
Why? well, I would like to eventually have gnome translated into
Tengwar/elvish (yes, using the characters and a keymap), I speak English
and to some extend Spanish. My wife the same, but prefers to compute in
Spanish.
This would help out in such situations.
Thanks for considering it.
Trever
