PackageMaintainers/Policy/EOL out of date
by Patrice Dumas
Hello,
The page
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/Policy/EOL
is out of date, pre-merge. I would like to update it, however I cannot
find an explanation of the current scheedule, there is only something
about the releases,
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/Schedule
I can't find the description of the EOL. Unless I am wrong, F-N+2 is EOL
one month after the release of F-N, but I don't know exaclty when events
relevant for packagers happen, like when new branches for packages
aren't created anymore, or when the builds are stopped for real happen.
If you give me some information or link to a page explaining the
EOL schedule, I'll update.

X crashes during suspend/resume
by Konstantin Ryabitsev
Hello:
I'm wondering if anyone is seeing the same problem as me (F10 x86 on a
Thinkpad x31). After I resume from suspend, X crashes and I get back
to the GDM login screen. I tried to search bugzilla, but "Xorg suspend
resume crash" does not return anything useful, so I figured I'd ask
first in case I'm missing something obvious.
The card is ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M6 LY.
Cheers,

dmraid problems - Intel ICH9R raid not recognized by Fedora 10 Preview
by kvantanet@seznam.cz
Hi everyone,
Posting another dmraid bug in Fedora 10 preview. As requested by Jesse Keating.
https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2008-November/msg01108....
Server: PRIMERGY RX100 S5
Make: Fujitsu Siemens Computers
Processor: 1x Xenon Quad Core/ 2xSATAII 500GB / RAID chip Intel ICHR9
/motherboard FSC
Will be affecting also PRIMERGY Econel Servers with RAID chip Intel ICHR9
We have configured a RAID 1 array on Intel ICH9R raid. Which in fact uses LSI
firmware and appear like LSI Software SATA RAID Bios Version: A.06.05071459R
This is a fakeRAID so dmraid is used to deal with it.
A) Using Fedora 10 Preview the RAID array is not recognized at all.
In the anaconda installer just appear 2 separate SATA disks.
B) Using Fedora 9 and Fedora 10 Beta the RAID array is recognized but when
booting appears an error message which is actually not affecting the
functionality of the OS (The system boots up OK). Not sure of dmraid (RAID) functionality in case of a crash.
Error:
<SNIP>
Setting hostname localhost.localdomain [OK]
/etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit: line 350: 1336 Segmentation fault /sbin/dmraid.static -ay
-i -p
"$dmname" > /dev/null 2>&1
Setting up Logical Volume Management : 2 logical volumes........
</SNIP>
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
F10 Preview x86_64 DVD
F10 Beta x86_64 DVD
F9 Release x86_64 DVD
I thing there is something seriously wrong with dmraid in F10. Anybody out there with similar experience.
We have planned to use F10 on our servers if solution would be provided.
I have posted a bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=471737
Best Regards

Looking for hugin/libpano13 co-maintainers
by Bruno Postle
Now I wish I'd paid more attention to co-maintainer and
provenpackager discussions...
Due to hardware failures I'm without a fedora system at the moment,
so of course I get a report of a problem with one of my packages.
Apparently something has changed in fedora breaking hugin (a
panorama stitcher), at least on fc9 x86_64. Simply rebuilding
the libpano13 dependency fixes the problem.
Since I can't track this down, I just need to bump the libpano13
release and resubmit. So I'm asking for one or other of these:
- a 'provenpackager' to bump and rebuild libpano13 fc9
- a co-maintainer so this doesn't happen again
- help finding the cause, I have a simple test case and libpano13
itself doesn't depend on very much in fedora

Notifications not showing up
by Casey Dahlin
I recently noticed some problems getting libnotify notifications to show
up. I've isolated the problem:
If you have a full-screen gnome terminal on /any/ workspace, be it the
current one, or one not presently in view, notifications are not displayed.
Bug here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=469755
This is a really annoying behaviour for me. I can understand not showing
notifications _over_ a full-screened app, but I have a full-screened
terminal open 24/7, and I like using scripts with notify-send to tell me
when something happens in that terminal while I'm on another workspace
checking my email or whatnot.
Has anyone else been hit by this?

sound skipping in F10
by Muayyad AlSadi
I consider this bug very very critical
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=469591
for the following reasons
1. we have't this bug in F9
2. we claim a Glitchless audio experience
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/GlitchFreeAudio
ie. to the end user "when you did not claim this thing it was smooth
and when you claim it, you lost it!"
3. I don't listen to Music, maybe when it skips a tune it will be
missed by ear considering the noisy music of those times but I listen
to lectures and speaks, it will be very annoying when it skips a "no"
or "not" in the middle of a sentence
I'm not underestimating the good effort behind pulse
but please make that bug assigned and let's inspect it more
PS. My sound card is ESS (snd_es1938)

fedora 10 avahi & firewall weirdness
by Christoph Höger
Hi,
I hope someone can clearify this for me.
I have avahi activated on my desktop and wanted to discover services
from my notebook (e.g. conduit). Both avahi servers use the default
configuration (local domain).
Running avahi-discover from my notebook worked with activated firewall
on the host.
On the host itself _no_ services were discovered while the fw was
activated - deactivating fixed it.
Why that? A normal fw configuration (my fw runs fedora default config)
should not deny any packets from the inside, that are accepted from the
outside. But obviously it does.
any thoughts?
