USB camera on kernel 2.6.13-1.1586_FC5

While using my camera with fedora, I've got this problem and cannot use
nautilus on the device (computer, camera), but rather on the mount point
(/media/usbdisk).
Here's the output:

kernel-2.6.13-1.1526_FC4smp can't see my mptscsi controller...
by Roe Peterson
I hope this is the right list. Apologies in advance if not; anyway, here
we go.
I've just recently installed FC4 "everything" on a Dell Precision 650 w/
dual xeons CPUS. Everything worked perfectly running
kernel-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4smp.
After running a complete "yum update" - and going through a few
hoops to satisfy dependencies - kernel-2.6.13-1.1526_FC4smp was
installed.
Unfortunately, the new kernel simply doesn't see my scsi controller.
I've manually rebuilt the initrd for the kernel, and verified that the
necessary modules are included (scsi, mptbase, mptscsi, etc).
Before I start digging, I wonder if anyone has seen this yet; if so,
I'd really appreciate a pointer in the right direction. If not, a
pointer in the right direction would still be very nice :-)
Thanks in advance.

glib g_return_val_if_fail problems with gcc4 (__PRETTY_FUNCTION__??)
by Thomas M Steenholdt
Hi...
I have a small piece of code that utilizes the g_return_val_if_fail
macro from glib... that macro wraps the g_return_if_fail_warning
function, but building with gcc4 -Wall -Werror -ansi makes it spew the
following error at every call to g_return_val_if_fail
warning: passing argument 2 of 'g_return_if_fail_warning' discards
qualifiers from pointer target type
i'm not calling g_return_if_fail_warning directly from anywhere within
my code.
this is all very strange to me...
if i do the exact same build with gcc32, I have no problems...
Could anyone advise if this is a bug or if perhaps i need some gcc4
specific options to make this work properly?
thanks in advance

well for emergency root stuff; logging in without any disk space is
hard; lots of stuff wants to make temporary files etc.
but your second point it true too: most filesystems (ext3 but most
others) start to fragment like hell if they go over about 95% full.
Think of it this way: if you have half your disk empty, the filesystem
can do a proper job of finding non-fragmented space.
If only 0.0001% is free, it has almost no freedom of choice, resulting
in "you get it in whatever order some things become free".
Those are sort of extremes; there's been a bunch of research and the
outcome was that 5% free seems to be sort of the turning point in this
respect.
I suspect that research predates the Tb sized volumes, so I don't know
if it maybe is 1% on such volumes, but then again to some extend the
freedom needed will scale with the FS size

adding more information to repo metadata
by Florian La Roche
I've added the below text to http://people.redhat.com/laroche/pyrpm/README.html
Adding the "flag" part of dependencies also as integer into the repodata would
make it more complete and useful for new tasks.
greetings,
Florian La Roche
Notes about the Repo-Metadata
-----------------------------
The following things should be noted about the repo metadata. yum is using
the repodata only within the resolver part, then downloads the rpm headers
and passes all the headers on to rpmlib to verify again if the resolver
of rpmlib is ok as well as doing e.g. the installation ordering part
within rpmlib. If the repodata would be more complete, more steps could
be done only based on the repodata being available:
- Even if no epoch is specified, the metadata still specifies this as "0".
For most code paths this is no problem as for all comparisons of version
data, a missing epoch is the same as a "0" epoch. This should not be
a huge problem and would be only a cleanup item for the repodata.
- For dependency information the `flag` part is only partially copied into
the repodata. Just adding the `flag` information as integer would make
sure all information is present in any case. Extending the repodata to
have `intflag` added alongside the old information would be good.
- Repo data adds a "pre" flag if the RPMSENSE_PREREQ flag is set. That
information is actually not complete to identify install prereq and
we need the more complete flag information as requested above to
be able todo correct installation ordering based on repodata.
- There is a fixed regex string which specifies the filelist information
for the primary.xml file. In addition also all files are listed if
they appear in any file requires from the same repository. This means that
you need to download the full filelist once you work on more than one
repository and you have file requirements outside of the fixed regex list.
(Detecting the need for full filelists could be done per-repo to give
a quite good detection algorithm.) Only possible path for this is to
identify problems for several repos where the full filelists need to be
downloaded and to add such a requirement into that repo or otherwise
add a command line option to add such additional requirements (which
should then get also written into the repodata).
