Sound in rawhide
by Tom Diehl
Hi,
Can anyone tell me if soundcard support in rawhide is supposed
to be working? I have a machine that the soundcard worked under FC1 but
on rawhide I get unable to load driver snd-via82_xx when I try to test
the soundcard using the config-soundcard thing.
FWIW, The kernel modules appear to be loaded. If this is something I should
bugzilla what component should I list it against? I tried searching bugzilla
but found nothing.
TIA,
...Tom

fsck (or initlog) result codes
by Leonard den Ottolander
Hi,
After an unclean shutdown and an apparently succesful fsck (no errors
are reported during the fsck after the reboot) I am still forced to
reboot the system.
I suspect this might have to do with the fsck return codes being wrongly
interpreted. Any value larger than 1 is considered a failure by the
script.
With an fsck result code of 3 however the system passes the next fsck
with no errors whatsoever. Could it be that fsck's result code on
failure actually is -1? Or any other value? Or does initlog (via which
fsck is called) somehow change the result value?
Bye,
Leonard.

Hmmm....I want to broaden the discussion at some point...soon
about the best way to use trackers for the larger triage effort.
But I think I'm going to have to wait till this weekend before I launch
into a long article on the topic. Ugh...and how Core triage and Legacy
are going to interact if/when Core triage looks
at older rhl bugreports.

32 Bit Mozilla issue
by Mark Lane
I am running x86_64 from Rawhide.
I did some upgrading to the rawhide packages and Mozilla-1.6 worked for a day
and then stopped. I guess one of older libs must have been still in memory or
something.
here's my strace of mozilla-bin
[mark@skip mark]$ strace /usr/lib/mozilla-1.6/mozilla-bin
execve("/usr/lib/mozilla-1.6/mozilla-bin",
["/usr/lib/mozilla-1.6/mozilla-bin"], [/* 41 vars */]) = 0
[ Process PID=6600 runs in 32 bit mode. ]
(mozilla-bin:6600): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in
module_path: "bluecurve",
/usr/lib/mozilla-1.6/mozilla-bin: relocation
error: /usr/lib/mozilla-1.6/components/libnecko.so: undefined symbol:
PR_GetAddrInfoByName
Any ideas? I don't even know what lib should be exporting PR_GetAddrInfoByName

Test Update Tracking proposal
by Warren Togami
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=114986
This is the first test of the "Tracking" report concept, where users
report only definite findings for Fedora Test Updates while discussion
remains on the mailing lists. This helps to organize information about
the update away from the chaos of the mailing lists so it is easy to find.
I also envision this as being a method of fostering multiple
communities/lists to get involved. In the case of gdm above, the
K12LTSP community is very much involved with production testing along
with the regular fedora-test-list. In other cases we may have upstream
project lists involved in testing. This may also get the attention of
upstream developers who are more likely to see the discussions. Fedora
has a chance to remain better in sync with upstream with improved
communication, rather than Fedora-specific patches sit in our SRPM for
years. While discussions may be scattered on multiple lists, definite
findings are sent to these tracking reports at Fedora.
The best part of what these tracking reports is something like this:
http://www.fedora.us/NEEDSWORK
http://www.fedora.us/PUBLISH
http://www.fedora.us/LEGACY
At any time, a site visitor can quickly use pre-set queries like these
and immediately see the status of all Test Updates. If they run into a
bug, they can quickly see if the package is already fixed and only
needing functionality testing. All without sifting through the heavy
traffic of mailing lists. One thing that would need to be enforced for
this to work is strong discouragement of discussion within the Tracking
reports. Only definite findings should be posted within there.
Discussions on lists only.
For this easy-and-quick query ability, we could use the Developer
Whiteboard, but I am requesting a permanent keyword like "UPDATE". The
pre-set query can search for "Fedora Core", "1", and keyword "UPDATE"
and display everything.
Thoughts?

Yes, but unfortunately it is done by closing the current window, then
opening a new window somewhere else, which could be... rather
distracting.
