Kernel updates
by Mike Chambers
Is anyone using the kernels from the below dir? If so, is it me or is
that dir missing header dir to use yum to update it? I can't find the
header dir anywhere, up or down the path.

<4> post_create: setxatter failed
by John P Poet
I have been happily running Fedora Core 2 for a year.
I just tried to install Fedora Core 4T3, but it fails with:
-------------------------------------
There was an error installing cracklib-dicts-2.8.2-1. This can
indicate media failure, lack of disk space, and/or hardware problems.
This is a fatal error and your install will be aborted.
-------------------------------------
If I switch over to F3, I see:
-------------------------------------
Setting file_context_path to /etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/file_contexts
-------------------------------------
F4 shows:
-------------------------------------
<6>SELinux: initialized (dev hda3, type xfs), uses xattr
<4>post_create: setxatter failed, rc=1 (dev=hda7 ino=16449)
-------------------------------------
My partion layout is:
hda1: /boot (ext3)
hda2: swap
hda3: /home (xfs)
hda4: extended
hda5: / (Fedora core 2) (ext3)
hda6: / (alternate root) (jfs)
hda7: / (Fedora core 4T3) (jfs)
I booted off the DVD with "linux jfs", so it would allow me to format
the root partion with jfs.
I told it not to install SELinux.
I did test the media, and it is fine. Pretty sure my hardware is
okay, since Fedora Core 2 is quite happy running on it.
Any other information I can provide to help track this problem down?
Thanks,
John

tomcat5 eclipse
by Zydoon
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
hi all,
I started testing FC4 excited by the integratino of java development
environement.
I'm already used to eclipse and tomcat (on redmond).
FIRST things first : eclispe when launched by root hangs the
workstations :(.
Now getting to the main subject :
I got the classic tomcat eclipse plugin from sysdeo and installed it.
I configured it as Tomcat home is /usr/share/tomcat5 and choosed context
files instead of server.xml.
now, just for testing, tomcat never get launched from eclipse (with
service tomcat5 start it does)
someone have got any idea ?
Zydoon.

Special actions with NetworkManager connections...
by Brian Anderson
I think I'm getting the hang of NM in FC4. However, when I connect to
certain access points I would like to perform some additional actions
after the connection is established or removed. For example, when I
connect to AP-home I want to set up route to a remote network that the
home AP is a gateway for, but for other APs I want to start vpnc in
order to connect to that remote network. Is there a way to accomplish
this with NM?
Thank you.

So xattr is now a supported feature in Reiser3?

I've always meant to ask - how did Paul find time to write such a great
filesystem? In between writing books, that crummy TV show and dodging
Helen Hunt's hairy paws, that is.
Reiser stuff is on topic, right?

system-config-securitylevel
by Ian McKinnon
Somewhere in the patches in the last 3 days...
When running system-config-securitylevel I am getting:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File
"/usr/share/system-config-securitylevel/system-config-securitylevel.py",
line 18, in ?
app.stand_alone()
File "/usr/share/system-config-securitylevel/securitylevel.py", line 453,
in stand_alone
self.readFile()
File "/usr/share/system-config-securitylevel/securitylevel.py", line 353,
in readFile
protoname = socket.getservbyport(int(service), protocol)
socket.error: port/proto not found
Can I get a confirmation that this is broken for someone else too?
Thanks. Ian
P.S.
You can still access it via ASCII GUI from SSH
