display
by Jerry Ro
Hello,
I just installed Fedora 9 on a thinkpad, with an Intel GM965/GL960 graphics
card. I also got a Dell monitor.
I am interested in being able to turn off the laptop LCD screen and only use
the Dell monitor.
I got a hint that it is possible for X60 thinkpad using aticonfig (from
here:
http://phaselockfel.blogspot.com/2008/02/install-fedora-8-in-thinkpad-t60...).
However, I do not have aticonfig installed, and I believe my graphics card
is different.
aticonfig, though, has an option to turn off the LCD laptop display. Is
there any way to find out what is the "aticonfig" on my Fedora installation
for the video card I mentioned above?
I also tried a "dual head" setting in Fedora, this does not work as well. I
am able to see, though, both screens, and they show exactly the same. I just
want to turn off the laptop display.
I understand also that there is a different between making the LCD be blank
and turning it off completely. I would like to turn it off completely. Any
hints how to find the binary that controls the video card directly (just
like aticonfig) would be appreciated. I tried really thoroughly to find that
binary (if it exists), but could not.
Thanks.

freenx 7.3
by Les Mikesell
Does anyone have step-by-step instructions for using freenx 7.3's
ability to remotely mirror the console session? I'm trying to do it
under Centos but maybe someone here has more experience with it. I can
mirror a non-console freenx session to 2 remote connections but haven't
been able to get a connection to the console session. If I say I want a
vnc session I can see mirroring the console as a choice but haven't been
able to make it connect.

OPENVPN /IPTABLES help
by potat0
Hello, I have openvpn up and running successfully on FC9. I'm using routing mode with the following configuration
My internal LAN range 10.10.10.0/24
My Openvpn client range 10.8.0.0/24
I can connect and ping the openvpn server from the openvpn client but can't talk to the other machines on the internal LAN subnet. However, the machines on the internal LAN subnet can ping the openvpn clients. I have entered the following in iptables.
iptables -t nat -I POSTROUTING -s 10.10.10.0/24 -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE
iptables -I INPUT -i tun+ -j ACCEPT
iptables -I INPUT -i tap+ -j ACCEPT
iptables -I FORWARD -i tap+ -j ACCEPT
iptables -I FORWARD -i tun+ -j ACCEPT
iptables -I INPUT -i eth0 -j ACCEPT
iptables -I FORWARD -i eth0 -j ACCEPT
I have also added a route on my d-link router that routes any traffic destined to 10.8.0.0/24 back to the OPENVPN server(10.10.10.xxx). This all works as it should when the firewall is disabled so apparently I'm missing some rule in iptables...Any help would be greatly appreciated..thanks..

F9 cannot boot without selinux=0
by Vandaman
My Fedora 9 box cannot boot without selinux=0. It was a nightmare
doing a http install only to find it was referring to non-existent
selinux policy files. I booted by selinux=0 and then a yum update
solved some of the problems but now it cannot boot without selinux=0.
[fcuser@Vandaman ~]$ rpm -qa | grep selinux
libselinux-python-2.0.67-4.fc9.i386
selinux-policy-devel-3.3.1-103.fc9.noarch
libselinux-2.0.67-4.fc9.i386

libssl.so.6 required by git
by Sashan Govender
Why are my dependecies broken?
I upgraded Fed 8 to Fed 9 yesterday and have noticed this:
git: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.6: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory
This is just one of a number of failed dependecies. I´ve tried
reinstalling openssl and git but it doesn´t change things. I do have
about 400 updates pending according to the update manager. That´s
because I can´t be bothered downloading all the updates yet.
This is a list of my repositories.
repo id repo name status
adobe-linux-i386 Adobe Systems Incorporated enabled : 17
fedora Fedora 9 - i386 enabled : 9,897
livna Livna for Fedora Core 9 - i386 - Base enabled : 967
updates Fedora 9 - i386 - Updates enabled : 10
updates-newkey Fedora 9 - i386 - Updates Newkey enabled : 4,612
repolist: 15,503
This is the version of openssl installed:
Package openssl-0.9.8g-9.fc9.i686 already installed and latest version

So that means that the x86_64 and i386 packages shouldn't be installed at the same time? ;-D
If these packages are not meant to be installed at the same time, then perhaps it would be a good idea to have the package dependecies set up to prevent this by default. Is there a situation when you would want them both installed?
