"FreeType: couldn't find encoding 'ascii-0'" after xorg transition
by Ville Herva 31 Mar '04

31 Mar '04

I just moved to xorg-x11 (thanks to all fedora-test-list members for the hints on how to do that painlessly.) I went pretty smoothly. I have one problem, though. After the transition, I get these: FreeType: couldn't find encoding 'ascii-0' for '/mnt/msdos/winnt/Fonts/lucon.ttf' FreeType: couldn't find encoding 'ascii-0' for '/mnt/msdos/winnt/Fonts/lucon.ttf' And font "lucida console" (a Windows font) no longer works. I've tried recreate the font caches (mkfontdir, fc-cache -f, service xfs restart), but it doesn't seem to depend on that. Any idea what could cause that or how to fix it? -- v -- v(a)iki.fi

install of kernel 2.6.4-1.298 does not work
by Richard Hally 31 Mar '04

31 Mar '04

when I ran up2date today it appeared to install kernel 2.6.4-1.298. There were no errors reported. But it did not update grub as usual, it did not put any files in /boot, and when I do rpm -q kernel it does not show 2.6.4-1.298 (It shows the other kernels 253 etc) [root@old1 boot]# rpm -q kernel kernel-2.6.3-2.1.242 kernel-2.6.3-2.1.253 kernel-2.6.3-2.1.246 kernel-2.6.3-2.1.253.2.1 Below are the messages in the up2date log file.

If the kernel was not installed when the log says it was, how many others were not really updated? another problem is that I use grub! ( have never used lilo on this box) and it was not updated. the log shows that the kernel install tried to update lilo. btw I am running in enforcing mode as root (with role sysmgr_r): Where do I start with the bug reports? the kernel 'cause it did not install? up2date because it did not report any errors when something was very worng? selinux policy? there are hundreds of avc denied messages... please let me know how to proceed with getting my system updated in enforcing mode and if there is additional information I can provide. the messages file is 796261 bytes and I have saved a copy. thanks, Richard Hally Richard Hally

how to set up ftp install server
by M Galvin 31 Mar '04

31 Mar '04

This might not be the right place to ask but I am setting up an FTP install server for Fedora. I have read the Redhat docs but they don't really specify what FTP dir structure needs to be. Does anyone know? Should it be /ftproot/fedora/linux/core/1/i386/disk1 /disk2 /disk3 OR /ftproot/fedora/linux/core/1/i386/(all disks in one dir) while combining the Fedora dirs from each cd Thanks in advance! ------------------------- M Galvin Lead Programmer Simplified Complexity http://www.simplifiedcomplexity.com

cannot update XFree86 packages
by MDS 31 Mar '04

31 Mar '04

Hello. I know that there are up2date issues, and one of mine is not having any of the XFree86 packages listed as available to update. They were there a couple of days ago on the Available Updates Window, but now they're gone. I have not updated these packages. I have similar issues with some glibc packages, among many others, all of which I have not updated. Much thanks. Mark

Another person's experience installing FC2 test 2
by shmuel siegel 31 Mar '04

31 Mar '04

I am running a dual boot Win2k/Fedora system. Originally formatted by Win2k for the NTFS and Fat32 partitions and formatted by RH7/8/9 for the ext3 and linux swap partitions. I got the already known complaints during the install. I couldn't do a hard disk install because I didn't have a driver. The CDROM install warned about partition alignment problems. I didn't upgrade my FC1 system but rather installed FC2 to an existing ext3 partition which I bravely reformatted as reiserfs. The installation went smoothly and rapidly. Rebooting, I found to my annoyance, that the boot loader was overridden and now pointed to somewhere that didn't have my fc1 configuration, thus forcing me to do some grub.conf editting. But more seriously, with selinux turned on, I couldn't start. init did not have the proper permissions. Rebooting with selinux turned off, didn't help since there was no inittab. Copying the inittab from fc1 didn't help since there was no rc.d/rc. How should I proceed?

Re: Today's dependency problems

Actually, the problem is that the new gimp package (gimp-2.0.0-5) deletes that library and replaces it: # rpm -ql gimp | grep libgimp /usr/lib/libgimp-2.0.so.0 /usr/lib/libgimp-2.0.so.0.0.0 /usr/lib/libgimpbase-2.0.so.0 /usr/lib/libgimpbase-2.0.so.0.0.0 /usr/lib/libgimpcolor-2.0.so.0 /usr/lib/libgimpcolor-2.0.so.0.0.0 /usr/lib/libgimpmath-2.0.so.0 /usr/lib/libgimpmath-2.0.so.0.0.0 /usr/lib/libgimpmodule-2.0.so.0 /usr/lib/libgimpmodule-2.0.so.0.0.0 /usr/lib/libgimpthumb-2.0.so.0 /usr/lib/libgimpthumb-2.0.so.0.0.0 /usr/lib/libgimpui-2.0.so.0 /usr/lib/libgimpui-2.0.so.0.0.0 /usr/lib/libgimpwidgets-2.0.so.0 /usr/lib/libgimpwidgets-2.0.so.0.0.0 So the dependency is that libgimp-1.3.so.26 is being removed and will no longer be available, not that it is currently not available.

Calming the BAD JOKE thread
by Jean Francois Martinez 31 Mar '04

31 Mar '04

1) This is a beta. Right. We expect things not working perfectly. But we expect to be able to install (even some glitches) and to boot. If we aren't able to do this, we will be frustrated and we will be unable to provide any help in hunting bugs. another point is that the people on this list care about Fedora's success and we don't want Fedora getting a bad name due to bad releases or betas who are in pre-pre-alpha stage (see below before you get defensive on this) 2) I think the reason myself and a lot of people haven't been able to boot could be linked to recording software. I had the same problem with Mandrake, I solved it, I don't remember how, I think it involved telling to xcdroast to record at a higher or lower capacity than 80 minutes. Since this is the xcdroast from Redhat 9 it is probable that the iso images have been built with mastering utilities who don't play well with recording at 80 minutes capacity: ie the CDs are readable (some people have succeded in making a mediacheck on CDs who didn't boot) but the boot record will not be detected by the BIOS 3) The boot.iso image is in a state who is completely unacceptable even for a beta. In normal times this would not be a major problem since most people would install from CD and would not see it. But since many people have been unable to boot from CD they have stumbled upon it. It does not make FC2T2 a joke (ie I withdraw my words about it) but as I said above boot.iso is in inacceptable state -- Jean Francois Martinez <jfm512(a)free.fr>
