KDE Bug that is not a show stopper
by Leslie S Satenstein
Super terminal, part of KDE does not recognize Canada French keyboard.
I don't know what it recognizes, as part of it works, and another does not.
At least, from native Core5 (Ctl-alt-f1), and Gnome, the keyboard is properly and accurately recognized .
Regards
Les.

PCMCIA Cardbus support?
by Uno Engborg
In FC4 I could just pop in a Flash memory PC card adapter into my PCMCIA
slot
and it would detect it would show up in my "Computer" folder as an extra
disk.
In FC5 nothing happens, no beeps or anything that indicates that the
card have been inserted.
Are there som extra packages apart from the kernel, that is needed to
identify a Cardbus card
in FC5?
The Card I have tested with is a Lexar PC Card Adapter. I have also
tried a D-Link
wireless card and that worked in FC4, but now doesn't seem to be identified

Fedora Core 5 Test 3 + nforce raid = noboot?
by Glen Bishop
hello,
im having difficulty getting core 5 test 3 installed on my system, its an
asus a8n-vm csm motherboard (nforce 430) and 2 seagate barracuda drives in
a raid1 done by the nvidia 430. there seems to be talk of other having
this issue over on fedoraforum.org but not much resolution, so im looking
here :)
for me either doing the default layout (with lvm) or creating a custom
partition table makes the boot process fail with the below message (see
screenshot and thanks to the pic donor)
http://www.glenbishop.com/20060225-FC5-test3-kernel_panic.jpg
i can load up the drives in normal sata mode and everything will install
fine, just the raid1 is having the issue. i've tried a couple things with
grub but nothing seems to work.
does anyone have a resolution for this? thanks

Ok, I was able to get Samba on FC5-T3 to work somewhat. I think
it has something to do with wins cache data or something like that
because when I am on a windows box, I tried something like:
On a windows system, using Explorer:
Address: \\copper\app1
Windows reported an error in trying to locate "copper"
which does not exist. So I changed the "copper" part to
an IP address such as:
Address: \\10.1.0.5\app1
And I was able to access the FC5-T3 share.
Oddball is that nslookup in the windows command windows
shows the proper nameresolver copper: 10.1.0.5 so I think
that windows explorer must either be using cache wins
data or dns that is not properly resolving to the proper
IP address. Not sure how to track this one down.
I restored all the FC5-T3 defaults as far as SELinux
does so it appears all is working well at that end.
I still have not figured out why FC4 to FC5 is not
correctly working as far as permissions go, i.e. on
FC4 - I am forced to provide authenication EVERY TIME
whereas on Windows - none is needed! Ahhh..... I will
research this some more...
I am still having problems with getting the menu of
System->Administration->Authenication to come up.

Oh, ok so this particular one does not match with what I am
experiencing. I saw the nvidia so I assumed that since I also
have nvidia that this was also my problem. My apologies.
But in any case - I have a segmentation fault. I'd be happy
to provide any details you need? Anything I can do at my end?

Are you asking me to test this under gdb? If so, I tried it as:
# gdb
(gdb) exec-file /sbin/kudzu
(gdb) run
Starting program: /sbin/kudzu /sbin/kudzu
Reading symbols from shared object read from target memory...(no debugging symbols found)...done.

Sorry - Looks like I dont have the debug symbol version

hibernate/suspend?
by Mike Leahy
Hello list,
I installed FC5T3 yestereday. I found that I was able to successfully
hibernate/restart before running any updates. However, it took about 3
or 4 minutes to complete, partly because of some errors I get when the
screen first goes blank...something that looks like:
"end_request: I/O error, dev fd0, <something else here>".
Last time I asked about this, somebody said it was an issue with the
kernel.
At any rate, I ran yum to update the system, and hibernate is pooched
again...it just goes black, shows those end_request errors about
accessing a floppy device that I don't even have on my laptop, and then
just sits there. As an alternative, I tried to suspend. This worked
halfway, until I un-suspended, after which I got just a blank screen.
Is there anything I should do to try to debug either the suspend or
hibernate tools?
