Can I check on remote gpk-update-viewer??
by Beartooth
I'm the nearest thing there is to tech support for my wife's
machine (which, like mine, runs F11) -- downstairs.
By running ssh -X instead of plain ssh to it, I can launch gpk-
update-viewer on it -- and, if it wants to update something I meant to
uninstall, uncheck that before I tell it to do the update.
Today, for some reason, when I start, it sits there far longer
than it ever does on any other machine, or has in the past on hers --
without reaching completion, and without indicating as usual what it is
doing.
I can't tell whether it is hung up, or just dead slow for some
reason. ps ax shows it, but doesn't tell me much. As root, I see this :
[root@Msgv2 ~]# gnome-system-monitor &
[1] 5043
You have new mail in /var/spool/mail/root
[root@Msgv2 ~]# X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication.
(gnome-system-monitor:5043): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
localhost:11.0 [notice no return to prompt]
but, if I hit ^C, the returning prompt shows me still logged into
her machine.
As user (with my userid, not hers), I see :
-bash-4.0$ gnome-system-monitor &
[1] 5082
X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication.
(gnome-system-monitor:5082): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
localhost:13.0
-bash-4.0$ [userid gets the prompt back]
But, again, I remain logged onto her machine.
The practical solution is of course obvious -- get clear off ssh
to that machine, go down there, and run the update in the flesh. I
probably will.
But I do this more or less every day. Over time, if I get it
right, it will save both considerable time, and also a lot of superfluous
wear and tear on my arthritic knees.
Is there a way? Or am I trying to do something (inside my own
house, and only over the LAN) that Fedora absolutely blocks because of
the use a cracker could make of it over the Net??

To add closure to this thread, Thank you Mr. John Wendel, your instructions worked and I am now running 2.6.31 on a Fedora 10 machine. I am grateful to you and all others that helped me answer this and other questions about kernels.

kernel 2.6.30.1
by Genes MailLists
2.6.30.1 is the recommended stable kernel by upstream - are there
plans to make this available for f10 and f11 ?? Both f10 and f11 are
more lagging than the past it seems - probably with the release of f11.
I didnt find much in koji ...
As per linux-kernel mailing list:
1) 2.6.29.6
****NOTE****
This is the last release of the 2.6.29 kernel series. All users are
strongly suggested to move to the 2.6.30 release series at this time.
************
2) announcing the release of the 2.6.30.1 kernel. All users of the
2.6.30 kernel series are very strongly encouraged to upgrade.

firefox 3.5 dies, takes gnome with it
by SternData
Several times since upgrading to Firefox 3.5, it's just disappeared. I
can't find a reliable pattern to it. When it goes, gnome panel goes
away, too. After a few seconds, gnome panel returns.

Uff, now I see that Lennart Poettering, Pulse Audio Guru, has already
answered about this post on PA mailing list, sorry ;)
Lennart:
"Nah, this is a complete and utter bullshit story. Slashdot just proved
again that it is full of nonsense. Gah. Disgusting.
I don't think that this deserves a real response. I mean
really, this smells more like a astroturfing from 4front, with all
that OSS4 fanboyism.
This guys is just some lame fud blogger, not a technical guy who does
any real the work, knows the technical details, works with the
community and gets his stuff into the kernel or the distributions.
Would be good if Slashdot would verify that the folks whose story they
post actually know what they are talking about. Because this dude
obviously hasn't. But I guess Slashdot is not the New York Times and
asking some actual respected Linux developers or even just
linux-audio-devel before publishing such FUD stories would be asking for
too much.
That famous Adobe jungle picture that was posted 2007 was grossly
misleading already, and it still is. At least arts, nas, esd, oss were
obsolete back then already, and mentioning almost unknown niche system
such as Allegro or ClanLib doesn't make it any better.
What I have to say about the situation of Linux audio APIs I posted here:
http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/guide-to-sound-apis.html
If you care enough about slashdot, then try to get them to bring a
story about that blog story, even if it is already frm last year. As a
change from their usual stories this one, as I dare to say, would be
written by someone who has at least a bit insight into what's really
going on. ;-)

Atheros AR242x 802.11abg don´t working in Fedora 11 and cpu frequency scaling
by Pedro Jose
Hello to everbody:
I have a Compaq Presario C735EM laptop, and his wireless card is a Atheros
AR242x 802.11abg. My Fedora 11 i586 installation use the kernel module named
ath5k, and the wireless card is named wlan0. The problem is because the
wireless card don´t start and don´t detect the wireless networks. I´m crazy
because in Fedora 10 all works "on the air", but not in Fedora 11.
I try to compile the madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6 driver, but I have a error in the
compilation (madwifi have a ticket, but I think it will take to solve). How
as posible that all works in Fedora 10 but not in Fedora 11?
The other question is about the frequency scaling of my cpu, a Celeron M
540. In the Live CD the frequency scaling works fine, but not in my
installation. I load the p4-clockmod module but not working. Any idea?
Sorry for my english, I´m spanish.
Saludos,
Pedro
