Howto debug suspend
by Louis Garcia
It's been a while since suspend worked on my box. Is their a way I can
debug this so I can see what is happening? Is there a suspend mailing
list that might be useful?

rhgb and gdm conflict?
by Émeric Maschino
Hi,
Is there actually something wrong with rhgb and gdm? When rhgb is passed to
the kernel, the graphical boot progress normally but I'm getting a blue
display and a black arrow as the mouse cursor where the the gdm login screen
is usually displayed. The system seems to be frozen as I can't switch to a
text console or kill the X server with Ctrl-Alt-Backspace. However, I can
remotely access it and restart gdm by invoking /usr/sbin/gdm-restart. The
gdm login screen is then displayed normally and I can log in a GNOME session
without a problem. By contrast, when rhgb isn't started, the gdm login
screen is displayed normally and works fine. I can't find a similar bug
report for the gdm component. This is on an Itanium workstation (IA-64
architecture). Are you experiencing the same issue on an other system?
Cheers,
Emeric

autoconf breakage on x86_64.
by Sam Varshavchik
I don't know the right way to fix this, but something is definitely broken;
and something needs to be fixed, one way or the other. The question is what
exactly needs to be fixed.
Consider something like this:
LIBS="-lresolv $LIBS"
AC_TRY_LINK_FUNC(res_query, AC_MSG_RESULT(yes), AC_MSG_RESULT(no))
Here's what happens on x86_64:
gcc -o conftest -g -O2 -Wall -I.. -I./.. conftest.c -lresolv >&5
/tmp/ccW7EeDX.o(.text+0x7): In function `main':
/home/mrsam/src/courier/authlib/configure:5160: undefined reference to
`res_query'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
configure:5147: $? = 1
configure: failed program was:
[ blah blah blah ]
| /* We use char because int might match the return type of a gcc2
| builtin and then its argument prototype would still apply. */
| char res_query ();
| int
| main ()
| {
| res_query ();
| ;
| return 0;
| }
The same exact test on FC1 x86 will work.
The reason appears to be that you have to #include <resolv.conf> on x86_64
in order to succesfully pull res_query() out of libresolv.so. You don't
need to do this on x86, and the test program generated by AC_TRY_LINK_FUNC
does not include any headers, but uses a manual prototype.
So, what now?

xterm: restore env after restart
by Richard Emberson
I am an xterm kind of guy, I have multiple virtual desktops with
multiple xterms per desktop. When I stop and then restart KDE
(maybe because I have to reboot, new kernel, etc.) I get all
of the xterms, then all come up, but not with their environments.
The xterms are all created which the bash shell in my home
directory. What I want is for each xterm to be in the directory
where it was when I rebooted with the same command history.
Does anyone know how to do this (and share that info)?
thanks
Richard

And the same for beagle-gui & beagle
However, the good news is that kernel-xen is now booting under SMP
x86_64 and seems (so far, give me some time) stable!

gdm not starting in init 5
by Louis Garcia
gdm is not able to start when booting in run level 5. When I boot in
init 3 I'm able to login and run gdm, Strange. Might have to do with the
new authconfig package.

Especially "alternatives" are needed then!
