FC2 Problem possibly related to selinux
by Hans Kristian Rosbach
I did a fresh install of FC2 w/selinux enabled.
I chose custom packages and removed all optionals.
Then I removed sendmail and installed postfix.
Then yum update.
The interesting problem now is that I can no longer
get a login prompt on the consoles. SSH works just
fine, but the console is stuck at starting Postfix.
Never seems to finish.
Any ideas?

Eclipse?
by Peter Backlund
Hello.
Any news on the Eclipse front? That is, how far away is it from Rawhide?
Note that I'm talking about the native version.
Also, I never got any response on why gcj35/libgcj35 isn't being built
along with th rest of the gcc35 packages?
Regards,
Peter Backlund

FC2 Grub raid problem, long standing..
by Hans Kristian Rosbach
One of our newly installed boxes had a diskcrash today,
luckily it was in a 2-disk softraid mirror.
Both disks are sata, and I have successfully exchanged
the defective drive with a new one. Raid has been resynced
ok.
BUT, I cannot boot from any of the two disks since the
boot disk is the one that died.
"grub-install /dev/sda" tells me this:
"/dev/md0 does not have any corresponding BIOS drive"
/dev/md0 is /boot
This bug shows that this is a LONG TIME standing bug:

- Enable "#define HasDevRandom YES" in host-$arch.def for bug (#126205)
- Remove driver list overrides for all architectures except ia64, as ppc was
missing the "nv" driver. In the future, we will use patches to the Imake
config directory to disable individual drivers on particular architectures.
- Disable building of fonts by setting with_fonts 0, as we now provide the
fonts from a separate src.rpm which builds noarch packages, so that we no
longer regenerate fonts every single X build, and people do not have to
redownload fonts every single xorg-x11 update when the fonts never change
anyway.
- Added xorg-x11-6.8.0-Imake-add-BuildFontDevelUtils-macro.patch to allow
building and inclusion of ucs2any and bdftruncate when doing "with_fonts 0"
builds, as "BuildFonts NO" causes these utils to be excluded.
- Change main package dependancy from xorg-x11-base-fonts to base-fonts which
is a virtual provide in both the xorg-x11-base-fonts and fonts-xorg-base
packages now, to maximize install/upgrade compatibility.
- Moved "ucs2any" from the xorg-x11-tools subpackage to the font-utils
subpackage where it belongs, and added a Conflicts line to the font-utils
package to handle upgrades.
- Moved "fonts/util" subdir from xorg-x11-base-fonts, to font-utils package,
as the utilities that use it reside there, and it never made sense in the
base-fonts package anyway really. Added Conflicts line to font-utils to
handle upgrades.
yelp-2.6.2-2
------------
* Fri Sep 03 2004 Matthias Clasen <mclasen(a)redhat.com> 2.6.2-2
- fix an translation problem
yum-2.1.3-1

[FC2] OT - Desert Combat F-16 bug
by Shockwave
I have been operating a game server for the better part of a year that
runs a very popular mod of BattleField 1942 called Desert Combat. From
the start, I have been using Fedora Core 1 on a hyper-threaded P4 2.8GHz
system using the SMP kernel and have enjoyed fantastic stability and
performance. Just yesterday I upgraded the system to Fedora Core 2 and
have noticed something strange. All of a sudden, every F-16 fighter
that spawns on any map has its right rear wheel sunk into the ground.
The game files are the same exact ones from the system when it was
running FC1 so that can't be the cause.
The game itself has two versions of the executable. One is statically
linked and one is dynamically linked. I have tried both and the problem
still occurs. This seems to indicate to me that the problem lies with
operating system files that both versions require. I did a little
research and ran "ldd" against both the static and dynamic versions of
the executable. Here are the results:
Static build
======================
libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x00c7e000)
libm.so.6 => /lib/tls/libm.so.6 (0x00c59000)
libncurses.so.5 => /usr/lib/libncurses.so.5 (0x03798000)
libpthread.so.0 => /lib/tls/libpthread.so.0 (0x00d71000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0x00b3c000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x00b1f000)
Dynamic build
======================
libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x00c7e000)
libncurses.so.5 => /usr/lib/libncurses.so.5 (0x03798000)
libstdc++.so.5 => /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5 (0x0023a000)
libm.so.6 => /lib/tls/libm.so.6 (0x00c59000)
libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x00191000)
libpthread.so.0 => /lib/tls/libpthread.so.0 (0x00d71000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0x00b3c000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x00b1f000)
The only lines that differ between the two are these:
libstdc++.so.5 => /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5 (0x0023a000)
libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x00191000)
While it is possible that only the lines in common are to blame, it is
also logical to assume that it may be related to an interface between
them and other system components. Not having a tremendous amount of
experience with C under Linux, I'm not quite sure where to go next but I
am certainly willing to roll up my sleeves and dive in head first.
If determining the specific cause of this problem by someone who isn't a
developer of the game itself is not feasible, then my question is this:
Is it possible to isolate the pieces specific to FC1 and use them in
some sort of artificial environment on FC2? If that is possible,
perhaps the game server could be tricked into believing that the system
was actually FC1. That assumes, of course, that this isn't some kernel
related issue which certainly cannot be circumvented.
The gaming community tends to be fairly picky about this sort of thing
and might not feel comfortable playing on our server for matches if this
bug persists. That would mean I would need to go back to FC1 and lose
the benefits of the advances in FC2. That's something I would obviously
like to avoid. I and others have posted about this problem for some
time now and the developers of the mod probably won't respond because
they have moved on to bigger and better things. If anyone could point me
in the right direction, I would greatly appreciate it.

syslog-ng to replace syslogd
by seth vidal
Hi all,
I think syslog-ng should probably be brought into Fedora Core to
replace syslogd.
In order to achieve that goal I've been told that making a good case for
why syslog-ng is beneficial to the distro needs to be added to this bug:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=113858
I'll be adding my own comments shortly, but if any of you have comments
to that regard please add them.
Thanks

Sendmail 8.13.x socketmap support
by Alexander Dalloz
Hi!
Is there a reason why current rawhide Sendmail has no socketmap support
compiled in? socketmap is one of the improvements from version 8.13.x.
I wonder a bit, because the changelog has following entry:
* Do Jul 01 2004 Thomas Woerner <twoerner(a)redhat.com> 8.13.0-1.1
- fixed init script to not complain missing sendmail-cf package
(#126975)
- better message in /etc/mail/Makefile for missing sendmail-cf package.
- added socketmap support
So it claims being compiled with socketmap. But I do not see it in the
debug output of Sendmail.
Current rawhide Sendmail: sendmail-8.13.1-2
$ sendmail -bt -d0.9 < /dev/null
Version 8.13.1
