FTP Upgrade - GNOME "greeting"
by Jim Cornette
After performing an upgrade via Anaconda from an FTP site and then
launching GNOME for the first time. I was greeted with an error pop-up.
There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon.
Some things, such as themes, sounds, or background settings may not work
correctly.
The Settings Daemon restarted too many times.
The last error message was:
Child process did not give an error message, unknown failure occurred
GNOME will still try to restart the Settings Daemon next time you log in.
Attached is a trunced upgrade log. Packages available, but not installed
were removed.
The sound works without having to adjust volume level. NCSU was the
source for the upgrade. The trouble causing gtkhtml3 package was
installed with the upgrade. The only packages available forupdate were
non-devel repos.

LVM & Disk Druid FC3-T1
by Dwaine Castle
Fedora Core 3 test 1
Has anybody successfully created an LVM volume using Disk Druid? I've tried
2 times and failed. Each time I get a fsck.ext3 error after the install
reboot. The lv & vg commands report no errors, but fsck reports that the
superblock is corrupt or that the /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 does not exist
which is true. I have an entry in fstab, but there isn't any /etc/lvmtab
file.
I've deleted then recreated PVs, LVs, & VGs from the rescue command prompt,
but the results are the same.
Thanks you.

xterm and erase character
by Harry Putnam
With the changes that are being tried in xterm package, I seem to
need to manually set stty erase to ^H so that stuff works like I
expect it to in X. However setting that in .bashrc like:
stty erase
Causes bad behavior in text mode terminals. I get ^? for backspace
and ^[[3~ for delete key. I have to manually do ^H to get the
desired behavior of deleting one character to the left.
I've forgotten the standard test for a terminal to know if it is in X
or not but even knowing that I'm wondering if I could set a resource
in ~/.Xresources for xterm, so it would only happen in xterm running
in X. Not to have to bother with it in init files.
That is, is there a resource setting that will cause erase char to be
^H (control+H) that can be inserted into ~/.Xresources?

perl-5.8.5-1 failing dependency on perl(Carp::Heavy)
by Patrick
Hi,
On fc3t1 it seems perl-5.8.5-1 has a failing dependency.
up2date -u perl
Unresolvable chain of dependencies:
perl-5.8.5-1 requires perl(Carp::Heavy)
Can anyone at RH please be kind enough to fix this so I can continue to
up2date my test box :)
Cheers,

[FC3] Fresh install - non-selected pkgs get installed [emacs]
by Harry Putnam
After two successfull clean installs yesterday, I noticed in both
cases that even though I opted to select pkgs manually, in an
`work station' install, and deselected `emacs' from editors group.
Emacs was still installed.
There was a screen following pkg selection that said something about
checking for dependancies, but nothing was displayed as having been
added to the install.
However, watching the install progress, I see emacs being installed.
And on boot-up and running `rpm -qa|grep emacs' I see:
emacs-21.3-14
emacs-leim-21.3-14
emacs-common-21.3-14
Should this be bugzilla'ed or am I just missing something at the
dependancy check stage?
