Re: 2.6.3-1.118 and X
by Pratik Mehta
Same thing happened to me. But the X Server then lets you fix the problem. Just choose a generic PS/2 or in my case a USB mouse...

After upgrading to kernel 2.6.3-1.118, X will not start for me, failing
saying it cannot detect my mouse, although when I run a dmesg, it shows
that my PS/2 wheel mouse was in fact detected. Any ideas?

usb scanner setup
by Sandy Pond
I needed to add;
usb 0x04b8 0x0110
to /etc/sane.d/epson.conf to be able to talk to my Epson 1650 scanner
and;
chmod 777 $(sane-find-scanner | \
grep '^found USB scanner' | \
sed -e 's?^.*libusb:?/proc/bus/usb/?' -e 's?:?/?')
to /etc/rc.d/rc.local so that normal users could use it. Is there a bug
here or is this the normal configuration procedure (I'm glad ESR didn't
try to setup a usb scanner)?

kernel rebuild does'nt build actual kernel
by Harry Putnam
I'm probably in over my head but rebuilding this package:
kernel-2.6.3-1.116.src.rpm
Does not produce a regular kernel package. I only get:
*RPMS/
kernel-debuginfo-2.6.3-1.116.i386.rpm kernel-source-2.6.3-1.116.i386.rpm
kernel-doc-2.6.3-1.116.i386.rpm
and
*SRPMS/
kernel-2.6.3-1.116.src.rpm
No `kernel-2.6.3-1.116.i386.rpm'
Nothing in any other dir under RPMS
Its the only kernel of that version under SRPMs for rawhide.

Wishfull Thinking (SPARC)
by David.Estacio@sycoleman.com
I have read the schedule posted on the Fedora Project page and it indicates
that there may be a SPARC architecture version of Fedora coming down the
pipe. Any news on this?
Thanks

Thanks for the information Spot.
Trying to figure a migration path for a bunch of SPARC systems, and I'm
gathering information on OS's
Thanks again for the info.

Well, so far, so good. The major errors so far are:
PIE support does not work on sparc at the moment. This means that every
Fedora package with PIE embedded into it has to be conditionalized for
sparc.
Building NPTL for sparcv9 requires glibc-kernheaders to be 2.6, not 2.4.
This also requires patching of things like util-linux and rhpl.
The 2.6 kernel, well, it has some eccentricities at the moment, such as
"cannot build kernel when booted into 2.6", that I'm trying to work out.
I've got a good amount of packages built, but the tree is not currently
installable. Nevertheless, I will get it out, even if it takes a little
longer than Fedora x86*.

Nautilus won't burn iso's anymore?
by Steve Bergman
I used to be able to right click on an .iso file and select write to
CD. I don't have that option anymore. Is this another wonderful
improvement of the new "spatial" nautilus?
I'm running current rawhide.

gnome-media & sound-recorder & gnomemeeting
by Efthym
Hi all
3 problems occur right now, with all updates installed
1) In Gnomemeeting the sound controls are disabled (greyed out)
(Gnomemeeting-1.0-1)
2) I updated gnome-media to 2.5.4-1 today. Got this error during
installation :
gnome-media 100 % done 10/62
I/O warning : failed to load external entity
"/etc/gconf/schemas/gnome-volume-control.schemas"
Failed to open `/etc/gconf/schemas/gnome-volume-control.schemas': No such
file or directory
I checked after install and there is no such file under
/etc/gconf/schemas, but the program works ok !
3) When I run gnome-sound-recorder, I get a segfault (i'm not sure if this
started after the update)
$ gnome-sound-recorder
(gnome-sound-recorder:1790): Gtk-CRITICAL **: file gtkliststore.c: line
569 (gtk_list_store_get_value): assertion `GTK_LIST_STORE
(tree_model)->stamp == iter->stamp' failed
(gnome-sound-recorder:1790): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: gtype.c:3350: type
id `0' is invalid
(gnome-sound-recorder:1790): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: can't peek value
table for type `<invalid>' which is not currently referenced
Segmentation fault
Is there something I should check or should this go to Bugzilla ?
