Can't boot with ACPI enabled after Tue update with PUP
by Peter Dufault
This is with 2.6.15-1.2025_FC5. The system hangs after the UDEV
message on boot up, and boots OK if I set ACPI to disabled in the
BIOS. The BIOS setting is changed to the defaults with "ACPI
disabled" selected.
This was also the case when I booted the original DVD distribution
but I found the ACPI work around and it booted OK after updating with
PUP. I don't know the exact date of when I started testing but it was
near the first day and it's been working fine.
System:
MSI K8NGM2-FID nForce 430/GeForce 6150 motherboard
Athlon 64 X2 4400+ CPU
Intel PRO/1000 MT ethernet
2GB memory
SATA drive
Software:
Started with DVD dist and updated daily with PUP. Not using XEN.
Do I open a bug, and is any other info missing?
Thanks,
Peter

Couple of questions for FC5, T3
by Dan Thurman
Hi Folks,
Just a couple of questions:
1) Is there a fix for kudzu? It currently core dumps. If there
is a fix, what do I use for Yum command line?
2) What is kdump? I guess I may have inadvetenly add this
package in - but in any case there is a warning message
in yellow that kdump could not find the core dump file. I
tried to read up on in but it is still vague as to it's uses.
Comments? Should I remove this from my test system?
Kind regards,
Dan

ralinktech (rt2500) drivers in kernel?
by Josh
Hello,
I was trying to configure one of Ralink's USB wireless dongles on FC5T3. I downloaded the driver src from their site and tried compiling. I get a bunch of missing asm include files. There files are present (kernel asm headers) but at different locations. Has anyone tried compiling the src for such devices? Any hints would be appreceated.
Ralink has released source code for their chipset. Can they be included in fedora kernel?
http://www.ralinktech.com/supp-1.htm
Thanks,
Josh.

Silly thing like a mount command appears to not be working correctly?
by Leslie S Satenstein
Here is the scenario
Fedora core4 on a dedicated 80 gig drive /hdb. (All install defaults taken)
Fedora core5 on a 200 gig dedicated drive. (All defaults taken)
Using system bios, I can boot from either drive.
I can mount the boot partition from either system to the other, but I cannot mount the data partitions.
My commands were (from root)
mkdir /other (on each hard drive)
mount -t ext3 /dev/hda? /other
where I tried ? from 7 all the way to 1. On the core4 system,
The system could not find values of /dev/hda7 through 3 . Refused /dev/hda2 and showed me the boot partition for /dev/hda1
On the core5 test3 system using the default values as set up by annaconda at install time, I could see the boot partition on /dev/hdb1 but no other partition.
Is there something I am doing wrong? I tried many flavours of xxx for the mount -t xxxx (auto, ext2, ext3) , eluding -t parameter.
Your test against a vanilla corex drive would be appreciated.

Cursor tracking in thunderbird/firefox?
by D Canfield
I don't want to be the kind of guy that harps on his "favorite" bugs,
but I'm finding it incredibly difficult to believe that the cursor
tracking that is broken in both the thunderbird editor and the firefox
textarea has not been fixed this close to release. Is it really not
driving anyone else totally insane, or is it just a handful of us who
are experiencing it? There is an open bug in bugzilla about the
thunderbird issue, and I would expect the two are related. I don't know
if the editor is mozilla specific or a gtk thing, but I've not noticed
the issue in any other gtk apps, and the issue doesn't exist on
Windows. Yet, it still occurs with a fresh download from mozilla.com.
Anyone know what's going on with this?
Thanks

Multiple X logins
by Uno Engborg
Is the possibillity to run multiple X servers so that you could switch
between
multiple users or machines,removed in FC5, or have I somehow failed to
install it, or disabled it by mistake? What was it called in FC4 by
the way.
