some help with document root for mailman lists
by Scott Berry
Hello there,
I am trying to create "lists.pilotalk.com" for myh mailman mailing lists.
Would some one either be kind enough to send me a copy of their apache
configuration file to look at so I can see how you tell the "VirtualHost" in
Apache where the document root is for mailman please?

Dependency Hell : KDE does not depend on X Windows
by Javier Perez
Hmmm
I did a groupremove of the X Windows System.
It erased X and KDE as expected. Figuring out that in order to have KDE I
need to have X, I did a groupinstall of KDE. Kdebase and all its gang was
installed, but X was left out!!!????
When I did 'startx', the systems could not because X was missing.
I would have thought that kdebase needed xorg-server-x11 at the very least
to launch kde.
How come they are not linked together?

How to partition an unpartitioned space!!!
by Matthew Hoggan
I now have win 2k and fedora 7 installed on the same hard drive.
However, I have run into a few issues that I am looking for answers.
1) fdisk -l is not working
2) is it bad that I did not set up a swap, and if so is there a way I
can set it up in Linux after installation
3) I have 150 gigs of un-partitioned space on my hard drive how do I
partition it in Fedora so I can write to it from both linux and win2k if
that is even possible
with-out running fdisk my current set up is
/dev/sda1 win2k MBR 7 gigs
/dev/sda2 linux / Mount point root file system 15 gigs

Kill all the lawyers.
Seriously, though, I don't see why the above isn't ok. Of course, I'm
not a lawyer! :)
----- End of Original Message ----
Which above are you referring to?
Killing all the lawyers or the three click install of freshrpms?
Seriously for the sake of the thread, it was Valent who suggested the three-click install of freshrpms. I cannot take credit for his statement. It is a fine idea. But we all know it won't happen soon :( Maybe one day when all patents would not be enforced or expired :).
This is what I actually responded.

The new yahoo or yahoo-beta is doing things differently.
Like the mp3 patent is soon to expire in 2011?
http://lwn.net/Articles/166272/
hopefully by then things will change for the better :)
Regards,
Antonio

HAL error
by Michael Klinosky
On 3 machines with Fedora 7, I usually get this error when I insert a CD
(IDE drive):
Error org.freedesktop.Hal.PermissionDenied.
> Permission denied: Not in active session.
I eject, and re-insert, and it gets mounted OK.
The software is probably the default F7 (I didn't update).
What's wrong? How do I fix it? (Anticipating "Update HAL." :) )

You know that you can add that line if it does not exist?

Help with wake on LAN
by Jonathan Berry
Hi all,
Does anyone here use wake on LAN?
Here is my situation. I have an old computer that I set up to be a
web server and remote ssh machine. It runs all the time. My personal
desktop, currently running F7 x86_64, I turn off except when I am
using it. I recently started experimenting with wake on LAN to be
able to remotely turn on my personal desktop from the web server
machine. I found a Perl script, wakeonlan, to send the needed packet.
Wake on LAN is enabled in the BIOS for my personal desktop machine.
Here is the issue. If I turn on my computer and turn it off before it
leaves the BIOS screen (that is, before booting Fedora and shutting
down), I can successfully turn on the computer over wake on LAN.
However, if I have just shut down from Fedora, wake on LAN does not
work. The NIC seems to be on after shutting down like I would expect,
but it just does not work. I do have a copy of WinXP Pro installed
for dual-boot, but I have not tried using wake on LAN after booting
Windows (I can try that sometime).
So, finally a question. Is Fedora (possibly) doing something that
would disable wake on LAN for the NIC when I shut down? If anyone has
some experience with this, I would appreciate some help. Thanks.
