kmod-nvidia173xx: two different version installed in F10 at one "yum update"
by Joachim Backes
I run actually "yum update", which presented to install two versions of
kmod-nvidia-173xx:
(20/35):
kmod-nvidia-173xx-2.6.27.19-170.2.35.fc10.i686-173.14.18-1.fc10.i686.rpm
(21/35):
kmod-nvidia-173xx-2.6.27.21-170.2.56.fc10.i686-173.14.18-1.fc10.1.i686.rpm
Actually, on the system were to versions of kmod-nvidia-173xx installed:
rpm -qa '*kmod-nvidia*'
kmod-nvidia-173xx-173.14.16-1.fc10.2.i686
kmod-nvidia-173xx-2.6.27.19-170.2.35.fc10.i686-173.14.16-1.fc10.2.i686
After the update, which updated additionally from
kernel-2.6.27.19-170.2.35.fc10 to kernel-2.6.27.21-170.2.56.fc10, I found:
rpm -qa '*kmod-nvidia*'
kmod-nvidia-173xx-2.6.27.21-170.2.56.fc10.i686-173.14.18-1.fc10.1.i686
kmod-nvidia-173xx-2.6.27.19-170.2.35.fc10.i686-173.14.18-1.fc10.i686
kmod-nvidia-173xx-173.14.18-1.fc10.1.i686
Can somebody explain this?
All comments are welcome

kernel modesetting confusion
by Konstantin Svist
I'm confused about modesetting support in F10/F11
1. kernel 2.6.29 boasts modesetting finally available
(http://kernelnewbies.org/Linux_2_6_29)
2. F10 uses kernel 2.6.27
3. F10 does modesetting on my radeon x800 (though I end up having to use
nomodeset parameter due to lockups in X)
So what's wrong with this picture? Is it different kind of modesetting?
Is F10 using a pre-release version of it? Something else?

nmbd??
by Jeffrey Ross
Whenever I restart the system nmbd does not auto restart. By the looks
of it, it appears as if it is trying to start before the ethernet
interface is fully up. The Ethernet address is assigned statically on
the system. typing "sudo /etc/rc3.d/S91/nmb" after I log into the
system is always successful at starting the daemon.
/var/log/messages output is -

by David Hláčik
Hello guys,
I have Fedora 10 x86_64 . I have skype.i386 installed (from skype
webpage) . This requires qt4.i386 which was additionally installed to
my 64bit OS. Skype works fine.
But i have used on Fedora 10 i386 version, qgktstyle which made qt
aplications (skype in my case) to look as my gnome desktop.
I can install qgtkstyle as well but in repository there is only 64bit
version qtkstyle.x86_64. I tought it does not matter as it is only
config think. But it does, and it do not works for qt4.i386 == with my
skype.
How to solve this issue?
Thanks in advance,

Problems with Fedora 9 & Flash 10
by Andrea
Hi,
I don't seem to be able to use Flash 10 on Fedora 9.
The plugin come automatically after I've added the Adobe repository rpm to yum.
The version installed is
flash-plugin-10.0.22.87-release
Basically the window of the player never shows up (tried with youtube, bbc iplayer).
I've tried removing the libflashsupport but nothing has changed.
Does anybody know how to debug that?
Cheers

But for some reason, after I loaded it in the tray and started the computer, there was no upgrading going on. After I logged in Fedora 7 and clicked the DVD icon, no thing happened. I wonder if I should burn the DVD under Fedora? Thanks

You should use an ISO burning software in Vista or in Fedora. Fedora can
do this with a simple right click on the ISO file and select "Write to
Disc..." in the menu. For Vista you will need to use a program such as
"ImgBurn."

Fedora internet connection issues
by Wei Wen
Hey Guys,
Recently I bought a hp computer with vista installed. Later I shrinked vista to make room for my Fedora 7 installation. Installation was successful. However, both wired and wireless connection became problematic. The network adapter for wired connection is "realteck RTL8102E Family PCI-E Fast Ethernet NIC (NDIS 6.0)" and the adapter for the wireless connection is "Atheros AR5007 802.11b/g WiFi Adapter".
>From the installation status under Fedora, I can see the wired adapter is active. But the connection is most of the time disconnected. The wireless connection never was active. I know I should choose to install the adapter driver, but since using the wired network became a problem, I have no way of install the driver. Any idea on how to solve the problems? Thanks

UDF 2.5 and Blu-ray video creation tools
by Michael Cronenworth
It's my understanding that kernel 2.6.26 brought UDF 2.5 support, but I
am not sure what tools have the capability to create a UDF 2.5 ISO to
burn to a DVD or Blu-ray disc in a video format. My intentions are to be
able to playback AVCHD video on a Blu-ray player. I've stumbled on a
"mkudfiso" project[1] but I haven't tried using it yet. I can't seem to
find any Blu-ray authoring utilities for creating a Blu-ray directory
structure either. Are there any better tools?
As far as Google is concerned, Blu-ray authoring seems to be an entirely
Windows or Mac thing.

f9: turn screensaver on/off when using xfce
by Dave Feustel
Running xfce in F9, I cannot figure out how to enable/disable the screensaver.
I have run the command yum install 'xfce*', so I think I have all the
xfce apps installed. Which one controls the screensaver?
Thanks.
