To less options in redhat-config-packages
by Georg E Schneider
Sometimes I download packages in a own destination so I want to say
redhat-config-packages my destination to install the packages. But it
seems not to work. The option tree says it's not valid. And isodir is
wrong. So I miss a option to install packages from a own destination.
(redhat-config-packages-1.9.1-1
Fedora Core release 0.94 (Severn))
ps:
For everyone I've seen today there's a G Schneider in this channel too,
but don't cofound me with him :)

problems with e1000 network and sound
by Martin
I have an asus motherboard p4c800-e, with 1G ethernet(intel 82547ei) and
3Ghz
Hyperthreaded P4 and 875p mch chipset.
I net installed(not upgraded) severn 2 with anaconda without any trouble.
then on first reboot, am unable to get sound or networking up. which is
interesting since I did a net install.
from dmesg i see:
NETDEV WATCHDOG eth0: transmit timed out
e1000: eth0 NIC link is Up 100 Mbps Full Duplex
didn't see any other error messages.
i've tried disabling hyperthreading in bios. also tried
booting with 'noacpi' and 'acpi=off'.
also sound doesn't work.
Severn 1 worked fine with this system.
appreciate any help.

NFS Install Fail
by Matt Whiteley
I get a failure in the NFS install after entering the server address and
path. I have a blank blue screen for a minute maybe and then it tells
me signal 11, unmounting disks, disabling swap ... safe to reboot. I
have checked the iso files. I am using a Win2k NFS server Omni from
Xlink, but I have used it in the past without problems.
I enter
192.168.1.102 [w2kbox]
/pub/fedora/
Then a pause and the error. In severn1 I can mount the directory and
view the contents (the three iso files).
I was trying to save some cdrs but maybe I will just burn them.

Fedora2 up2date fails at livna.org load
by Christopher A. Williams
My up2date program just stops when trying to fetch updates from the
stire rpm/http://rpm.livna.org//base/pkglist.redhat/9.0/i386.bz2. The
progress log shows complete and the background window moves ahead to the
"Skipped Packages" window, but the progress dialog stays there with a
100% indication and up2date itself just stops.
I can kill the progress menu and hit "Back" or "Cancel" to get out of
this, but I can't go forward.
If I disable all non-Redhat sites in the channels list before trying,
everything works just fine.
Ideas on how to fix this?
Cheers,
Chris

More 0.94 issues
by Andre Robatino
First, I downloaded the ISOs, checked the md5 sums against the MD5SUM file,
and checked the signature of the MD5SUM file itself. Then, after burning
the CDs, I checked the md5 sums on the CDs themselves with the dd command.
Everything was fine. Then, after bringing the CDs home and running the
mediacheck, the first CD failed, the second passed, and the third failed.
So I downloaded the ISOs at home, and burned new copies at home, after
checking the ISO md5 sums again. Upon doing the mediacheck, the exact same
CDs failed. I decided to gamble that the problem was in the mediacheck
program, rather than the CDs themselves.
I did an upgrade from beta1 to beta2, and though the system was basically
functional, I noticed some error messages on startup and shutdown, so I
decided to do a clean install. Both the upgrade and the clean install
proceeded without errors, reinforcing my suspicion that there was something
wrong with the mediacheck program.
I use DSL with PPPoE. I configured the network connection to come up at
boot time, but this doesn't happen. I can bring it up manually with
redhat-config-network, however. Even though the ethernet interface is
activated after the PPP connection comes up, and ifconfig confirms this,
it's still shown as inactive in the GUI. I'm not sure what the proper
configuration for the ethernet interface is, I previously had an IP-less
configuration where the ethernet interface comes up in response to PPPoE.
Name service didn't work. I noticed that /etc/ppp/resolv.conf had been
automatically filled with two DNS server addresses, but /etc/resolv.conf
hadn't. I took the two DNS addresses and manually entered them into
redhat-config-network under the DNS tab, and then these addresses made their
way into /etc/resolv.conf, so name service works. The copying should
happen automatically, however.
I'm not familiar with the software responsible for the above problems.
Which packages are likely to be responsible so I can file bug reports?
P.S. The metacity bug #104373 still manifests (same version metacity-2.5.3-3
as before).

(no subject)
by Peer Dicken
Hello fedora-test-list,
I'd like to install fedora rc2. I have got an MSI K72NG Mainboard
with an integrated SATA-Raid controller (promise fasttrack
S150tx2plus chipset). I know there are drivers
from promise.com - these drivers work perfectly with RH9, but not
with fedora.
Please, anyone who has installed fedora on a comparable system, give
me some help. Thanks!

KDE 3.1.4 maybe ?
by Botoaca Andrei
I won't be a b*tch about it ... but is there any date know for KDE 3.1.4
including in severn ? (Because I saw that SuSE has updates for it already
...).
I saw it was out for a while, and no KDE 3.1.4 in Severn2 ... although i
hoped so ...
Thanks
Me

Re: samba 3.0?

But isn't that release candidate 1 as spelled out '5rc1' at the end of
the version line? If you go to this link:
http://us1.samba.org/samba/ftp/Binary_Packages/RedHat/RPMS/i386/9.0/
You will see that its not versioned as above or even use the 'rc' in
it. But then I do not know if Redhat interwine it in a specific way to
their distros.
