by maxer
I can't get my system to move faster than a dead snail after the latest dev
updates of the 10th of March?
Which package is the culprit?

Subject: Fedora Core 3 Test Update: gimp-2.2.4-0.fc3.3
by Nils Philippsen
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Fedora Test Update Notification
FEDORA-2005-204
2005-03-10
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Product : Fedora Core 3
Name : gimp
Version : 2.2.4
Release : 0.fc3.3
Summary : The GNU Image Manipulation Program
Description :
The GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program) is a powerful image
composition and editing program, which can be extremely useful for
creating logos and other graphics for webpages. The GIMP has many of
the tools and filters you would expect to find in similar commercial
offerings, and some interesting extras as well. The GIMP provides a
large image manipulation toolbox, including channel operations and
layers, effects, sub-pixel imaging and anti-aliasing, and conversions,
all with multi-level undo.
The GIMP includes a scripting facility, but many of the included
scripts rely on fonts that we cannot distribute. The GIMP FTP site
has a package of fonts that you can install by yourself, which
includes all the fonts needed to run the included scripts. Some of
the fonts have unusual licensing requirements; all the licenses are
documented in the package. Get
ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/fonts/freefonts-0.10.tar.gz and
ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/fonts/sharefonts-0.10.tar.gz if you are so
inclined. Alternatively, choose fonts which exist on your system
before running the scripts.

Xen [fc4] question
by Tony Jones
I upgraded my system from FC3 to the -devel branch.
Have the following Xen rpms installed:
kernel-xen0-2.6.10-1.1155_FC4
kernel-xenU-2.6.10-1.1155_FC4
xen-2-20050222
I can boot the main (domain-0) kernel. All seems well.
When I try to start domain-1 (which has it's own root and swap partitions)
it starts up and then just reboots. The last few lines of dmesg are:
...
Initializing IPsec netlink socket
NET: Registered protocol family 1
NET: Registered protocol family 17
md: Autodetecting RAID arrays.
md: autorun ...
md: ... autorun DONE.
kjournald starting. Commit interval 5 seconds
EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode.
VFS: Mounted root (ext3 filesystem) readonly.
Freeing unused kernel memory: 128k freed
Warning: unable to open an initial console.
SELinux: Disabled at runtime.
SELinux: Unregistering netfilter hooks
Restarting system.
xm list (from another window) shows that the domain is shutting down:
node-dom1 4 64 0 ---s- 1.6 9604
Anyone have any clues or should I ask on a more Xen specific list?
Thanks
Tony
-- config file

Can someone confirm that the new odt file format for OOo in rawhide is not getting the correct mime associations?
by Jef Spaleta
Running rawhide, using openoffice.org-writer-1.9.82-1 the new
default file format is
"Open Document Text" aka "odt"
My gnome desktop running nautilus is not automagically associated
openoffice as an application to use for these files. In fact the only
application nautilus associates for me is archive manager.
Can someone confirm this?
written oowriter create a "odt" file.. this should be the default
file type now... and examine what applications nautilus associates
with this filetype.

Anybody any ideea why this crash occurs, and if so, does anyone know also a
remedy for it ?
Thank you,
