news access?
by Tommy McNeely
I am sure this battle has been fought before.. but wouldn't these
aliases work better as a discussion group on a news server? it seems
that every mail client (server?) I use just doesn't like having
tousands of messages in a mailbox :-)

guidance needed
by Gene C.
OK, rawhide is being updated but rhn for servern-beta2 is not. For testing,
except is specific cases, do you want us to stick pretty closely to what you
publish in rhn or do you want us to do lots of updated from rawhide when they
appear?
Sometimes rawhide contains packages which have big problems whereas rhn (even
for test) is usually pretty good. For testing, I expect that something may
go wrong and may even trash the system requiring a re-install ... this is an
assumed condition.
How do you want us to proceed?
BTW, both bugzilla and rhn servers seem to be having problems right now.

seriously fubar'ed after rawhide updates...
by Nick Verhaegen
Hi,
I was running redhat beta (the first one, not the one redubbed
fedora), with daily rawhide updates... Now, after the last batch of
updates, about everything that's dynamically linked refuses to run...
rpm etc give errors along the lines of
error while loading shared libraries : libXXXXX : cannot enable
executable stack as shared object requires: Permission denied...
Any ideas of how to fix this without reinstalling ? Or is it just beyond
hope ?
Thx for some help...

redhat-config-packages bugs
by Dennis Gilmore
i did an upgrade on my laptop from Red Hat 9 to test 2. i personally don't
use Gnome and normally don't have it installed a friend wanted to see gnome
in action so i went to redhat-config-packages it told me i had no kde and
no gnome packages installed. i have all kde and some gnome stuff as i like
to use applications such as gnomemeeting. i selected all gnome packages to
be installed and got dependencie errors over pspell and aspell deselected
gedit and promptly got asked for Red Hat 9 CD 1it would not continue with
the install so i did the install manually and ran redhat-config-packages
again to see what it would show and again no kde or gnome packages are
installed. in the games it shows i have kdegames installed so its getting
some but not the main desktop ones. anyone seen anything simmiliar

prefdm really honored??
by Christoph Wickert
When X starts up, the script /etc/X11/prefdm is executed.
It goes like
> ...
> preferred=
> if [ -f /etc/sysconfig/desktop ]; then
> . /etc/sysconfig/desktop
> if [ "$DISPLAYMANAGER" = GNOME ]; then
> preferred=gdm
> elif [ "$DISPLAYMANAGER" = KDE ]; then
> preferred=kdm
> elif [ "$DISPLAYMANAGER" = XDM ]; then
> preferred=xdm
> fi
> fi
> ...
so I changed /etc/sysconfig/desktop to "KDE" (what I think is stupid, for I don't want to run KDE by default),
but still gdm comes up instead of kdm. Is this a bug or did I miss something? IFIAK this happened in RH8/9, too,
my only solution was to remove gdm.

gtoaster problems
by Marc Deslauriers
Is anyone having a problem with gtoaster not detecting cd-rom drives
anymore?
The bus scan doesn't seem to find anything and pretty much temporarily
hangs gtoaster when it is started.
If anyone else is having this problem, I'll bugzilla it.
