Hi Rex, thanks for the suggestions,
Here is what I currently have installed:
[root@Fedora-Blue ~]# rpm -qa --qf "%{vendor} :
%{n}-%{v}-%{r}.%{arch}\\n" | grep xine
RPM Fusion : xine-0.99.5-5.fc10.i386
Fedora Project : xine-lib-devel-1.1.16.2-3.fc10.i386
Fedora Project : xine-lib-pulseaudio-1.1.16.2-3.fc10.i386
Fedora Project : totem-xine-2.24.3-1.fc10.i386
Fedora Project : xine-plugin-1.0.1-4.fc10.i386
Fedora Project : xine-lib-extras-1.1.16.2-3.fc10.i386
Fedora Project : phonon-backend-xine-4.3.1-2.fc10.i386
Fedora Project : xinetd-2.3.14-21.fc10.i386
Fedora Project : xine-lib-1.1.16.2-3.fc10.i386
[root@Fedora-Blue ~]#
As I put in the first mail
"I tried to yumex the xine -lib-extras-freeworld & keep getting
Missing Dependency: xine-lib(plugin-abi) = 1.24 is needed by package
xine-lib-extras-freeworld-1.1.15-4.fc10.i386 (rpmfusion-free)",
which I've not yet been able to get past. From what I've read in replies
on other topics, I guess I've somehow got to convince yumex that
plugin-abi is present (or make sure that it really isn't, and let
extras-freeworld pull it in as a dependency...... errr how??
Thanks for your help

Linux on a pendrive
by Michael Weiner
Thought i would throw this out there to the those that have far more
experience than i in this matter. I have a need to create a bootable USB
pendrive, easy enough, thanks to the LiveUSB-Creator tool provided on the
fedoraproject site. But what i need is a desktop linux (KDE preferred) with
some additional RPMs and Applications on it (Scientific based apps like
PyMol) on a pendrive. I have created the pendrive with quite a bit of space
for persistent storage, but wanted some opinions on the best way to move
forward.
Thanks in advance for any direction

recent update issues
by Dennis Kaptain
I have been following the fedora-list for several years off and on. From time to time I see as well as occasionally experience issues with updates breaking things.
It seems to me that this week has been especially tough. There has been a flurry of problems including the libX11 issue that is affecting me personally.
To help keep all this in perspective, I want to point out that this is a very rare occurrence. I keep my system up to date with the very latest packages available, checking mostly daily, and almost never have any kind of problem. Now that a problem has surfaced, as is my experience, I'm sure it will be fixed very quickly.
In this regard: To all the developers out there, whose names I don't even know, who work hard at keeping MY computer updated and secure with one of the best operating systems on the planet, for FREE,
Thank you!
Dennis Kaptain

kde library problem?

Maybe I missed others having this problem:
All of a sudden my uptodate F10 kde apps hang on launching.
For example, when I start quanta from the console, I get:
kbuildsycoca running...

When I start kb3, okular and others, they just hang with no error message.
I googled around, but didn't find anything recent.
Any pointers appreciated. Thanks!

update caused java breakage
by brian
Since allowing some updates a couple days ago, I can no longer run
jEdit. It looks like it's something to do with X11 or GTK but that's
about as much as I can figure out.
When I try starting the app, it hangs with a white screen. The
~/.jedit/activity.log shows:

This probably means that jEdit crashed and/or exited abnormally

I'm really unsure of what to make of that. The security stuff made me
wonder about SELinux but that's disabled.
I've also tried moving ~/.jedit but encounter the same hangup. Attempts
to install 4.3pre16 or the older 4.2 result in pretty much the same
backtrace as above.
While trying to debug this, I also realised that I don't have openJDK
installed, which seems really odd. I thought that was the default for
Fedora 10.
$ rpm -qa | grep java

Anyone think it's worth installing openJDK to see if it deals better?

Backing up system
by gmspro
Hi,
Reading this:http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=35087
I ran this command from terminal being root
tar cvpzf backup.tgz --exclude=/proc --exclude=/lost+found --exclude=/backup.tgz --exclude=/mnt --exclude=/media --exclude=/sys /
But the last two lines from terminal.
/boot/initrd-2.6.27.5-117.fc10.i686.img
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
Why is that for?
What should I do now?

You can do this way, but ideally your file system should be unmounted (boot

I, personally, use BackupPC for /home and partimage for the file system (/

Would someone please tell how to use partimage to backup whole fedora 10 system in detail?

I also downloaded systemrescuecd and burned it.
But can't use it to backup whole fedora 10 system(actually I don't know how to use it)

Is it necessary to backup the /proc , /sys, /lost+found , /media, /mnt, directory to be backed up?
Is it possible to backup /dev/sda6 partition excluding these directory(/proc , /sys, /lost+found , /media, /mnt,) with partimage or systemrescuecd?
If I copy the whole /dev/sda6 partition in a portable hard disk(250GB),then
after reinstalling minimum fedora 10 and copy-paste that /dev/sda6 from the portable hard disk to the newly installed fedora 10's root (/) directory ,will it work ?
In serious trouble.
Someone please tell how to backup easily as I don't have any live cd.

boot problem with software raid1

Bonjour,
I installed soft raid1 on 2 HD for my f10.
Sometimes, randomly, the system cannot boot and stops after enabling
udev with this message:
checking file system
/dev/md0 Resize inode not valid
Asks me to enter the root password or type Ctrl-D
In bothh case (entering the root password or typing Ctrl-D) the system
reboots and.... checks /dev/md0 and starts normally.
Who can explain me what happen?
Thanks in advance
