gazillions of modprobe messages?
by Tom Horsley
One both startup and shutdown I'm seeing scads of warnings
about obsolete modprobe files and files requiring .conf
suffixes. (I think they show up every time a module
is loaded or unloaded).
Since I have done absolutely no editing of any modprobe
files, this feels like something in the released files
that isn't compatible with what the released software
expects.
Anyone know what is going on with this?
WARNING: Deprecated config file /etc/modprobe.conf, all config files belong into /etc/modprobe.d/.
WARNING: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-visor, it will be ignored in a future release.
And where's the phraseology "belong into" come from? :-).

Fascist Software running wild on Rawhide
by Chuck Forsberg WA7KGX
I am having to run some sound apps as root in order to get
access to the sound device.
Then I ran system>admin/add/remove software.
After warning, it allowed me to select software to download,
but then refused to load it claiming insufficient privelege.
I then logged out and logged in as a user and this time
there were no error messages on install software until I had
spent several minutes choosing to install.

Upgrade of KVM installs
by Bill Davidsen
After repeated failures to upgrade installs using KVM for testbed, I found this
which works for me. Please don't tell me I shouldn't have to do this, I agree.
Please don't tell me if it doesn't work for you, unless you have a better trick,
I'm just trying to be helpful.
After the base install (which hangs on reboot):
- yum upgrade yum rpm
- yum upgrade PackageKit
- yum upgrade
From the command line, obviously.
Hope this helps someone, works on bare metal i686 installs as well, haven't run
the x86_64 except from the Live cd.

Say Cheese!
by Tom Horsley
One success to report on fedora 11 beta. For the absolute first
time ever on a linux box, I was able to use cheese to record
a video on my webcam and actually get sound recorded at the
same time!
I've always had to record them separately and manually sync
them up with editor tools then combine the audio and video.
Not sure if this is all due to cheese, or partially due to the
new sound control panel that let me set my webcam usb mic
as the default audio input source.

Rawhide Beeping Keyboard
by Chuck Forsberg WA7KGX
After today's yum update and reboot, the PC beeper (not the sound
channel) has started beeping when characters are keyboarded. Mouse
clicks do not seem to be affected. Keystrokes do not appear to be
lost in unusual ways.
