xorg-x11 in Testing
by Gene C.
I have been having hard X hangs on my dual Athlon system with an ATI Radeon
9200 (RV280). This has been happening with xorg-x11-6.8.1-12.FC3.21 on an
infrequent but constant basis (and there are bugzilla reports which seem to
describe the problem).
Then there were some comments added to the bugzilla reports saying to try the
updates in development (rawhide) so I downloaded xorg-x11-6.8.1.903-2.src.rpm
and built the packages for my system. I still got the hangs and still pretty
much infrequent but happening.
Then the Testing update xorg-x11-6.8.2-1.FC3.10test was put in Testing and
announced on this list. So I updated. Oops, now I got three hangs in a
matter of a few hours so I backed off to xorg-x11-6.8.1-12.FC3.21 and the
hangs stopped.
I have updated the report I turned in on the problem --
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=145534
but also queried bugzilla for FC3 and devel problems. This returned a very
large number of hits ... too many to really see if there are any other "hang"
reports.
Now this long winded message is leading to a suggestion. I consider that that
problems with packages in Updates should be reported with the base release
with the updated version/release indicated so that the package maintainer
knows what package is having the problem. However, it seems to me that the
packages in Testing are another matter and there is no product version
designation for Testing whereas devel (rawhide), base+updates (e.g., fc3),
and alpha/beta testing (e.g., fc4test1).
Suggestion: add a product version called "testing" for bugzilla reports on
packages in Testing.
If there is some other means of specifying this info (such as adding a keyword
of Testing), it should be better advertised.

[Native Eclipse] -- Problem connecting cvs trough ssh
by Henry Pierre
Hello !
I'm new to this mailing list, and I ask you to not blame me for my low
english skill.
I'm trying fedora core 4, and in particular the native eclipse platform.
I've configured a CVS repository, which I access through extssh.
But when I try to fetch the children of the Head tree, i received this
error :
>>> An internal error occurred during: "Fetching Children of HEAD" <<<
And the jvm launch this exception :
>>> java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException: DH <<<
Has someone an idea about this problem?

Re: rawhide report: 20050318 changes

> gnome-desktop-2.10.0-1
> ----------------------
> * Thu Mar 17 2005 Ray Strode <rstrode(a)redhat.com> - 2.10.0-1
> - Update to upstream version 2.10.0
when using the new (& verry nice!) clearlooks theme (or any other theme
using the gnome icons) there is no icon for "Office" in the menu, because
gnome-desktop doesn't provide /usr/share/pixmaps/gnome-applications.png
which is used by linking from
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/redhat-office.png provided by
gnome-icon-theme.
ah and by the way, please give gedit and the bonobo component browser
an working icon too :)
ps. nice to have rawhide reports in the testing-list now!
cheers

Fedora Core 4 PPC usb boot image
by Paul Nasrat
For those having issues with eject:
Here is a 32 bit image that will boot your mac off a usb key
It's a hd image with mac partition table, a hfs apple_bootstrap and an
ext2 partition with the kernel/initrd. Created on an x86 linux box with
parted, hfsutils, and offset loopback mount for the ext2 parts.
http://people.redhat.com/pnasrat/ppcboot.img
sha1sum attached
dd if=ppcboot.img of=/dev/sda bs=1k
where sda is your usb storage device
pop the usb key into your mac. Power up holding the option key (alt)
down and you should get the graphical chooser. Choose the disk with the
USB logo below it and the small tux log.
Click on the -> arrow and it should take you there.

Re: Disc 3 "not correct" disc

-------------------------------------------------------------
Note: this reply may appear double, but somehow, during the reply, the subject line got corrupt...
-------------------------------------------------------------
Yes, I'm a RHCT.
My NFS server at home isn't going to be of any use if the network card of my laptop isn't recognised by FC4T1, is it?
Therefor I dropped all iso files (4x cdrom, 1x dvd) on the laptop (before I wiped FC3 off it) through my network. And I tried to install it through the boot.iso cd (local harddisk) but wasn't succesfull because I kept getting the "there aren't image files on /dev/hdaX"-message (I also tried to "unpack" the dvd into a directory and point the installer to it).
So, last thing I tried was to burn the cdrom iso files onto cdrom and install from that. And then I got the message that my 3rd disc wasn't a FC4T1 disc....
In other words, I was just pondering that it wasn't going to be an easy install.

by Roger Grosswiler
Hi,

Remarked yesterday, that if i shutdown my pc, i won't get the usual screen, where i see all services going down. there
is a corrupt screen with blue border and grey inside, the letters are not readable, i just see stripes, i just see,
that almost all services are going down correctly due to green color (except one) :-)
