Menu Problem - freezes when trying to set up printer
by Gerry Tool
In FC4T1 with all installable updates, I cannot set up a printer.
Two problems:
1.) Using the menu Desktop > System Settings > Printing freezes the menu
and does not open a dialog. I could only get going again with a reboot
- restarting X caused a hang.
2.) Using system-config-printer from the command line seemed to work,
but after setting up my Networked LPD print server using 192.168.1.102
as the server name and L2 as the printer port (works on all other
installs of FC, Suse, Ubuntu, etc.), a test page would not print. The
printer status comes back as "Unable to reserve port. Permission denied."
These are two separate problems and I will bugzilla them.

FC4T1 installation and testing notes
by John Pearson
03/16/2005-07:18:35 PM-EST
I am trying to run yum. yum is not cooperating.
03/16/2005-07:49:56 PM-EST
Using the Personal Desktop option, there is no way to mount the installation
dvd to augment the package store. I could, and did:
# mount -t auto /dev/dvd/ /media/cdrom
But there is neither icon nor visable means of mounting anything. And some
daemon or other is not running.
I have installed the kde desktop, but there are numbers of tools that are not
included.
I am finally doing a yum update. Latest error to surface:
--> Processing Dependency: libpisock.so.8()(64bit) for package: gnome-pilot
--> Processing Dependency: libwnck-1.so.4()(64bit) for package:
gnome-applets

Error: Missing Dependency: libwnck-1.so.4()(64bit) is needed by package

I guess I will not be using those packages for a while.

no Xen for x86_64?
by Steven Pritchard
I just noticed that there are no kernel-xen[0U] rpms for x86_64 in
FC4t1 or rawhide. Is this a temporary situation, or do I reinstall
i386 FC4t1 in order to try it out?

Unable to logon
by Jeffrey D. Yuille
Hello,
I have just installed the Fedora Core 4 Test 1 version and I am not
able to log on. After everything seems to install, I am brought to the
logon screen but after I try to log on, I only see the blue screen
without anything loading up. During installation and just before
logging on, you are generally given the option to set the screen
resolution, provide a username, etc. I didn't even get the opportunity
to do this. The one time the computer did load up, it took about four
minutes to load to the desktop and I had to create a regular user
account through the root account. I did a clean install on two
different computers (a Dell Dimension xps t600r and a Dell Inspiron 4000
laptop) and I have the same problem. How do I correct this? Has anyone
else had this problem? Any help would be appreciated.

FC4T1 GRUB is always installed into MBR
by Kazutoshi Morioka
Hi, all.
/sbin/grub-install in FC4T1 is broken.
When I install, I told that GRUB to be installed into boot partition,
but GRUB is installed into MBR instead.
After installation, I tried to fix by re-installing GRUB with a command below,
/sbin/grub-install /dev/hda2
but GRUB is installed into MBR again. /dev/hda2 is unchanged.
Any infomation?
