reason to upgrade to test 3 for minimal?
by Steven Morehouse
Hi. I have test 2 running after doing a minimal install. Has anything relevant to a minimal install changed for test 3? Everything I'm using FC4 for seems to be solid in test 2. I'm new to this - where can I see a comprehensive list of changes? The summary only lists a few things but there had to have been more changes to that. Any kernel upgrade?

Test 2 or test 3?

Minimal install

Why does the minimal install require 2 cds? The ONLY package it grabs from the 2nd cd is openoffice.org, which certainly is NOT required for a minimal install.

Nvidia Dance...
by Charles Lesh
Hey all:
I've been happily using FC3 with binary nvidia drivers for a while.
I've also been playing with rawhide, which is sweet, but a no go with
binary nvidia drivers.
If I remember correctly, FC3 test releases and the initial release
itself could not handle the binary nvidia drivers due to changes in
the kernel.
Without flames, and understanding how evil binary drivers are, should
I expect a significant delay and lots of screwing around between the
release of FC4 and the nvidia drivers working? (I like to call this
the nvidia dance.)
I wish I didn't need the binary driver, but I have a laptop, and have
found no other way to drive a second monitor ('twinview"), which I
need to do when I give presentations. Sadly, this why windows is still
on one of my partitions.

Problems with Xen (kernel-xen0-2.6.11-1.1226_FC4) and Intel Corporation 82562ET/EZ/GT/GZ Ethernet
by Keith Sharp
Hello,
I have been trying to get Xen working with the most recent kernel builds
from Rawhide. When I boot using Xen and kernel-xen0 the network fails
and I get tracebacks on the console.
Booting starts as expected but starting eth0 seems to take a little
longer than normal. The problems begin when NTP is started, booting
pauses here for quite a few seconds and then a traceback appears.
Booting eventually continues with these pauses and tracebacks. When the
system is finally up I can login is root and the network appears to be
up (according to ifconfig) but I cannot ping any other local devices and
the RX and TX values for eth0 remain at zero.
Attached is a console log from booting - the interesting stuff is
towards the end, the output of lspci, and my grub.conf
I am running FC4T1 with kernel and xen updated from Rawhide:
kernel-xen0-2.6.11-1.1226_FC4
kernel-smp-2.6.11-1.1226_FC4
kernel-2.6.11-1.1226_FC4
kernel-xenU-2.6.11-1.1226_FC4
The Ethernet port works fine under the standard SMP kernel.
Is anyone else seeing this?
Keith.
