Rawhide uninstallable
by Orion Poplawski
Seems like rawhide has been uninstallable for the last few days. This
seems to be a bad sign to me. Is it?

How to generate videoaliases/foo.xinf for hwdata?
by Hans Ulrich Niedermann
Hi,
I guess that for proper integration of xorg-x11-drv-radeonhd into Fedora
the package should ship a /usr/share/hwdata/videoaliases/radeonhd.xinf file.
Is the xinf file format documented somewhere? Are there tools to create it?

Repo Suggestion
by Mark Bidewell
Last week I tried moving to updates-testing in order to test latest KDE on
F7. The resulting kernel update was mismatched with kernel-devel so I could
not install the nvidia drivers. My suggestion is this. Would it be
possible to segregate updates according to package type (similiar to the
SUSE buildservice) or even just along the lines of Desktop (KDE/GNOME/etc
and deps) and System( kernel etc.) so testing bleeding edge packages from
one package group won't break other system packages?

The KDE-SIG needs (your) help
by Sebastian Vahl
This is a request for participation:
The KDE-SIG [1] is atm lacking active contributors. And we really need some
help in doing our job to provide a good KDE version in Fedora - especially
with the upcoming KDE 4.0 and the inclusion in Fedora 9.
If you don't know how you could help us here is a list (which is also in the
wiki):
* Packagers: There are so many interesting packages that are not yet packaged
for Fedora. Package it to improve the user experience.
* Reviewers: Only a few persons are doing the kde-related reviews. Help us
reviewing so that more packages could be included.
* Testers: If you love KDE use the development version or the updates-testing
repository and report bugs, bugs, bugs, request enhancements or features. We
need your feedback to improve KDE.
* Bugs: Become a BugZapper and help us with kde-related bugs.
* Documentation writers: The documentation (esp. the DesktopUserGuide) is
GNOME-centered. Help us to provide an equivalent for KDE.
* Release Notes: The few people that are working on the new KDE-Spin are quite
busy with development issues. If you want to help us in writing the release
notes for the next version of Fedora we would give you all the info you need.
* Wiki: Maintain http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/KDE and keep it updated with
end user information.
* Artists: To provide a matching theme for nodoka-metacity-theme and provide
an unified desktop experience.
But this is not a complete list. If you're interested in making KDE in Fedora
better, you're more than welcome.
The list of participants in the wiki is atm not a list of active contributors.
When setting up the wiki the only demand was an interest in KDE to be listed
on this page. This list would be changed in the future to be culled down to
the list of active (or reactivated) participants. This has become necessarely
because there are only (less or more) 3 active contributors atm (plus Than
Ngo). But the list indicates that there are enough people helping with KDE.
If you are interested in joining the KDE-SIG please add your name to this
list, answer to this mail, join us in #fedora-kde at freenode or attend the
weekly KDE-SIG-Meetings (every tuesday 17:00 UTC). I will also add a topic to
the agenda of the meeting next week to introduce new contributors. [2]
The attendance at the SIG-Meetings is of course not required. But this way we
would know of each other. And they are also the main place of discussing the
next steps in the development (besides fedora-devel-list).
If you have any further questions please answer to this mail or write me
directly. And be sure: If your are willing to help you're welcome (regardless
of your skills). :)
Sebastian

Why is this ld.so.conf.d file named as ds9-%_arch.conf?

I've had this issue too. MCP55 on an Asus Striker Extreme mobo. For me
it only worked with the stock F7 kernel. Even yum updating to a more
recent F7 broke it.
