sg (scsi generic) module missing
by Jurgen Botz
In the last few kernel RPMS there doesn't seem to be an sg
module. It was there in ./2.6.4-1.300, it's missing in 305.
What happened to it? Can't use cdrecord without it.

LANG=C for CJK locale on virtual consoles?
by Jens-Ulrik Petersen
Hi,
Whenever I use a virtual console (tty) I'm annoyed by the
white boxes that appear instead of Japanese text from error
messages or output, before remembering to set LANG=C.
Therefore I would like to propose falling back to LANG=C in
interactive shells for languages with no font on the virtual
console (vt) for FC3.
Does this make sense? I can't think of anything that would
break off hand, but would appreciate any comments or input
for this.

OpenOffice.org Dictionaries
by Phil Anderson
Hi,
I'm not sure if this topic has been brought up before, but is there any
reason why the extra OpenOffice.org spelling and hyphenation
dictionaries aren't included in Fedora Core or Fedora.us?
Unless anyone has any reason not to, I am going to package them. I'll
put each language in it's own RPM, containing both the spelling and the
hyphenation dictionaries.
e.g.
openoffice.org-dicts-en_CS.20040410-0.fdr.1.1.noarch.rpm
openoffice.org-dicts-en_AU.20040410-0.fdr.1.1.noarch.rpm
Do you think I should use one big source RPM for all the languages? The
down side of this is that the dictionaries are updated in an ad-hoc
manner, so you would have to rebuild the whole lot if you only wanted to
update one language.
For your information, the dictionaries are at:
http://lingucomponent.openoffice.org/spell_dic.html
http://lingucomponent.openoffice.org/hyph_dic.html

yum and ftp sites
by Shahms King
Whatever happened to having yum cache and reuse FTP connections? I know
there was a patch circulating to do this that worked well (but required
working around the broken urllib.ftpwrapper used by
urllib2.CacheFTPHandler).
It's really, really annoying to be 2/3 done with an upgrade and have yum
abort because of a "Too Many Users" error on an FTP server.

tux in Fedora Core
by Alex Kiernan
Is tux in or out of FC?
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=115418
doesn't seem to make things clearer (I'm assuming that rawhide is what
will become RHEL?)
I've patched up kernel-2.6.5-1.315 to support tux on x86-64, but I'm
not sure whether I should put patches in bugzilla for FC or send them
onto the tux mailing list.
