Getting Rhythmbox To Work in FC4
by Jeffrey D. Yuille
Hello,
I just installed fc4 the other day and it installed without a
hitch. However, I also installed gstreamer and its dependencies to add
mp3 support. However, when I try to add a folder into the browser
window, all of the mp3 recordings appear to be grayed out. Has anyone
else experienced this. I have also Googled to find out to solve this
and I am told to add the latest release of Gstreamer. I have already
done this but still with no success. Is this a bug? I know that Fedora
does not come with mp3 support by default, but after adding what should
make Rhythmbox work with mp3, I am still not having any success. Can
anyone help?

Fedora Core 3 Test Update: libsoup-2.2.2-2.FC3
by David Malcolm
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Fedora Test Update Notification
FEDORA-2005-418
2005-06-16
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Product : Fedora Core 3
Name : libsoup
Version : 2.2.2
Release : 2.FC3
Summary : Soup, an HTTP library implementation
Description :
Libsoup is an HTTP library implementation in C. It was originally part
of a SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) implementation called Soup, but
the SOAP and non-SOAP parts have now been split into separate packages.
libsoup uses the Glib main loop and is designed to work well with GTK
applications. This enables GNOME applications to access HTTP servers
on the network in a completely asynchronous fashion, very similar to
the Gtk+ programming model (a synchronous operation mode is also
supported for those who want it).
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
This update should fix a problem with domain-handling in NTLM authentication
("Secure Password") when using evolution-connector. Please test it if you use
the connector.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
* Tue Jun 14 2005 David Malcolm <dmalcolm(a)redhat.com> - 2.2.2-2.FC3
- add patch for NTLM domains (#159901)

webcam problem (pwc)
by Simon Lanzmich
I have a problem with my Philips ToUcam Pro (Philips 740 webcam, using
the pwc module) on both FC4 and a Fedora development system. When I try
to start camorama, it says:
Could not connect to video device (/dev/video1).
Please check connection.
and aborts.
dmesg says right after boot:
pwc Philips webcam module version 9.0.2-unofficial loaded.
pwc Supports Philips PCA645/646, PCVC675/680/690,
PCVC720[40]/730/740/750 & PCVC830/840.
pwc Also supports the Askey VC010, various Logitech Quickcams, Samsung
MPC-C10 and MPC-C30,
pwc the Creative WebCam 5 & Pro Ex, SOTEC Afina Eye and Visionite
VCS-UC300 and VCS-UM100.
pwc Default framerate set to 30.
pwc Philips PCVC740K (ToUCam Pro)/PCVC840 (ToUCam II) USB webcam
detected.
pwc Registered as /dev/video1.
usbcore: registered new driver Philips webcam
After trying to start camorama, dmesg says:
pwc Failed to set LED on/off time.
pwc type = 740
pwc Failed to allocate decompress table.
However, the integrated microphone works.
The cam works well on FC3, but I can't say when it stopped working,
because I don't use the cam very often.
Any ideas?

FC4: out of memory errors?
by Edwin Olson
On a fresh install of FC4, on a machine which had been running FC4T3
without issues, I'm encountering odd "out of memory" errors.
One moment, running a command (launching one of my own java
applications, or playing a movie in mplayer) will work; the next moment,
I get an out of memory error, or a X-related insufficient resources. My
apologies, I don't recall the exact error message.
I will attempt to characterize the problem tomorrow, but I thought I'd
share my experiences in case anyone else is having these sorts of issues.
I am using the nvidia drivers, which might be a factor. My java app uses
OpenGL, and mplayer does some videocard acceleration, doesn't it?

I looked around a little bit, and I found forum (
http://featherlinux.berlios.de/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=6883& ) where other
people had the same issue, but with Feather Linux. I haven't tried it yet,
but using this driver
http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloads1-3.aspx?Keyword=8180 with
ndiswrapper seems to be the only solution at this point. I would love to
know if there is an alternative to this.
