Fedora Core 2 Test 1... delayed
by Bill Nottingham
Since the schedule says it's coming out tomorrow, I figued I'd
push the heads-up that it's delayed.
In short, it's not working quite well enough to push out yet.
We're currently working on it, and will update the schedule
page when we have a better idea when it's going to be usable.
Best guess right now is mid-to-late this week.

Please verify: GDM miscounts current sessions
by Warren Togami
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=110315
GDM miscounts current sessions
* Sun Feb 01 2004 Warren Togami <wtogami(a)redhat.com> 1:2.4.4.5-8
- patch30 xdmcp_session counter fix from gdm-2.5.90.0 #110315
- automake14 really needed, not automake
- BR libcroco-devel, libcroco-devel, libattr-devel, gettext
- conditionally BR libselinux-devel
- explicit epoch in all deps
gdm-2.x from FC1 and FC2 rawhide fail to properly count the number of
concurrent XDMCP sessions. Rather than a maximum simultaneous sessions
counter, MaxSessions parameter became a maximum number of sessions
forever counter.
The original code LOOKS correct, but gdm-2.5.90.0 hints to a race
condition that could be causing this behavior. I copied the code from
gdm-2.5.90.0 into rawhide's gdm and it seems to work. The spec patch
also contains explicit BuildRequires fixes and versioned-dep-epochs.
Please verify that the patch solves the problem without introducing any
regressions. A redone package will need to go into FC1 updates/testing
soon too, especially for the K12LTSP folks.
If these changes look good, I ask that Havoc check them into rawhide
ASAP. It should not be too late to make FC2 test1 (I hope especially
since changeloop is still broken.)

Fedora is not Red Hat ;-)
by Xose Vazquez Perez
hi,
can anyone replace "Red Hat, Inc." string with
"The Fedora Project" in the RPM builder system ?
"Vendor" and "Packager" bring a RH tag in all packages:
Vendor: Red Hat, Inc.
Packager : Red Hat, Inc. <http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla>
And still there are some packages with RH name:
redhat-artwork
redhat-menus
redhat-rpm-config
redhat-lsb
could 'redhat' be replaced by 'fedora' ?
-thanks-

Nautilus toolbars
by Trever L. Adams
I am not sure whether or not to post this as a bug, but in the devel
series of Fedora, the location bar and tool bars in Nautilus seem to be
gone.
Is this a known problem? Configuration? Just a wait and it will come
back?
Thanks for any information,
Trever

session setup error with cifs
by Richard
Since smbfs has been removed from the 2.6.1 kernel, I could no longer
use smbfs and am forced to change to cifs. None of my shares on
different machines will mount.
I've changed my fstab to read "user=" from "username=" and "smbfs" to
"cifs" - but still no mounting.
I'm all upgraded against development since today.
#mount /mnt/hughsie/albums/
Message displayed on screen:
mount: block device //hughsie/albums is write-protected, mounting read-
only
mount: cannot mount block device //hughsie/albums read-only

comment = Albums
path = /mnt/data/albums
writeable = yes
I need to use this share - and I the only way I can mount it is to use
2.6.1-1.47 with smbfs.
Return code = -13 is hardly usefull! Google didn't seem to help, but the
samba website suggested I should have a mount.cifs in /sbin - and an
associated manpage.
Any ideas - thanks for any input.

Did you try glibc-kernelheaders from Rawhide? It seems fixed in
glibc-kernheaders-2.4-8.43.i386.rpm which I downloaded a minute ago.

Broadcom wireless 11g chipset
by fastlanwan
Is there any plan on including a drv (via the 2.6.x kernel or other means) for the Broadcom wireless line of products, specifically the wireless 802.11g chipset in the Core 2 release?
I ask for two reasons:
1. That's whats on my system board so I can't get linux online until my wireless adapter works. The 3rd party solutions just don't seem to work.
2. Broadcom is the largest producer of wireless chipsets for SOHO devices. I would think there would be some level of support and that it would be ongoing.
Thanks for your time,
Dan

Looking at the changelog of the gaim in fedora core 1 updates testing
and looking at the changelog for the rhl9 errata. It seems naively to me
that the gaim in testing doesn't have the security patch applied. So
I don't think it's just a matter of moving the one in testing to
released. I think there needs to be a new package build for fedora.
