'su -' long delay under X11
by Doncho N. Gunchev
When I run 'su -' from X11 console the command 'sleeps' about one minute
before anything happends. Is someone else having this problem? When I 'su -'
(or simply 'su') and enter the password I see:
'Sep 16 15:35:45 fc3 su(pam_unix)[13966]: session opened for user root by mr700(uid=500)',
long delay (30 seconds or so) and everything is fine (xclock runs). With
'sudo su -' I see the same message in the log, but no delay. I never used X11
with FC2, but with FC1 all works as expected. From the text console everything
is fine...

Radeon 7200 - locks up during initializing
by Jim Cornette
Just to note that I decided to try a video card that was laying around.
The card was an ATI radeon. This card does not work very well with the
radeon driver. I had to resort to the vesa driver for the time being.
The PCI card has 32 MB for memory.
This being on the same computer that the 815 card is part of the
motherboard, is there any need to disable any settings in BIOS? I had
the video recognition set to auto.
The effects are that card comes up in the uper left corner and does not
cover more than 3/4 of the display. I collected data regarding the
radeon driver causing problems, but wanted to know if there were any
settings that might be causing this sort of problem.
Attached is lspci output.

Crap, right off of google one must run gnucash once as root first.

This question is more appropriate on fedora-list(a)redhat.com.

i2o - problems with controllers with additional memory (from fedora-list)
by Dave
(Apologies for the duplication)
After trying the workaround detailed by Warren Togami in:
http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2004-May/msg04389.html
to install Fedora Core 2 on an Adaptec 3200S (not ZCR) without any luck, I
recently tried the latest Rawhide, unfortunately also without success, only to
discover the problem was elsewhere. It didn't appear to be anaconda failing to
detect the array, but rather the kernel failing to map the controller:
PCI: Found IRQ 10 for device 0000:00:09.1
i2o: I2O controller found on bus 0 at 73.
i2o: PCI I2O controller at C8000000 size=134217728
i2o: Unable to map controller.
i2o: DMA / IO allocation for I2O controller failed
I2O controller: probe of 0000:00:09.1 failed with error -12
i2o is failing in ioremap() - VmallocTotal is 106M, so this isn't surprising.
Yes, I should have spotted this originally, but it took me a Rawhide
download and two days to notice.
lspci gave:
00:09.0 PCI bridge: Adaptec (formerly DPT) PCI Bridge (rev 02) (prog-if 00
[Normal decode])
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64
Bus: primary=00, secondary=02, subordinate=02, sec-latency=64
I/O behind bridge: 0000a000-0000afff
Capabilities: [68] Power Management version 2
00:09.1 I2O: Adaptec (formerly DPT) SmartRAID V Controller (rev 02) (prog-if 01)
Subsystem: Adaptec (formerly DPT) 3000S Ultra3 Dual Channel
Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 10
BIST result: 00
Memory at c8000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=128M]
Capabilities: [80] Power Management version 2
This appears to be the same problem reported by Markus Lidel on the LKML in June:
http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0406.0/0070.html
The controller had 128Mb SDRAM memory module on board, I removed this module
and replaced the standard 32Mb module the board would normally ship with, and
the kernel was able to correctly load the module.
The kernel used was 2.6.8-1.541 - I'm aware there is a slightly more recent
2.6.8-1.549 kernel outside of the development download, but wasn't going to
expend the effort of rebuilding a boot CD from scratch.
Ironically even Redhat 7.3 manages to detect and handle the controller with
128Mb in without issue (2.4 kernels' dpt_i2o). You'll be glad to know that
anaconda in rawhide does detect the controller without the i2o_proc hoopla,
though. =)
I realise FC3 Test 2 was delayed, are there any i2o or ioremap changes pending
that will allow me to use the controller with the larger memory module present?
I guess Warren is best placed to answer this - I do now have the controller
working with 32Mb, but I'm willing to cooperate with any testing the i2o on
linux team might want, if only out of curiosity. The controller works on the
2.4 kernel and *cough* other operating systems without issue, so it would be
nice to see the 2.6 kernel also handling this correctly. There's also a second
128Mb module here if anyone feels like seeing what 256Mb will do, probably
with FC2 and an updated kernel rather than Rawhide now, though. =)

Obtaining 2.6.8-1.541 source code
by Nick Coghlan
Some background - I'm running FC3-test on an Asus M6BN laptop. This
means the only option to get my modem and wireless card working are the
drivers from Linuxant, which means I need 16k driver stacks.
And that works fine - I'm currently running a patched 2.6.8.1 kernel,
based on the kernel.org tarball.
However, what I would prefer is to start with the source code and
.config used to build the current FC3 kernel.
`yum info kernel` shows 2.6.8-1.541 living in the `development` repository.
`yum info kernel-source` shows only a 2.6.6 kernel version, living in
`fedora-updates-testing`.
The 541 src RPM from fedora.redhat.com drops a vanilla tarball, and a
collection of patch & config files into /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES, but
doesn't seem to give any guidance on combining those into a given kernel
version. I would assume it is important to at least apply the patches in
the correct order (which may or may not be alphabetical order).
Am I missing something obvious here?
Cheers,
Nick.

RE: Multi Wan Question
by Tiernan OToole
Well, I haven't tried yet, I'm just checking if it would work first. I
would like the machine set as a router for the rest of my network.
Basically load balancing the traffic in and out of the network. I run a
web server and mail server from home and the web server is starting to
use a lot of traffic. That's why 2 connections are better then one.

Setting up two should be no different than setting up one. What
specifically are you having trouble with? What specifically do you
want to accomplish by doing this?

Two interfaces that connect to totally separate networks, not a problem;
just configure the interfaces normally and you're done. Two interfaces
that connect to the same place (the internet), well that's a little
different.
http://lartc.org/ is the documentation you want to read. Chapter 4,
specifically, but you will find reading the whole thing to be a
mind-expanding experience.

All modern Linux will do it nobody afaik has every done a fancy GUI tool
for the job. Needs a mix of "ip route" and "ip table"
