Audio locks on latest kernel
by Antonio M
I usually listen to radio streams by Rhythmbox, after updating to
latest kernel-PAE-2.6.29.6-217.2.16.fc11.i686 I am experiencing locks
after a short time (one or two songs): it is running fine on previous
kernels.
I am using Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801EB/ER
(ICH5/ICH5R) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 02) with snd_intel8x0.
My system is Fedora 11 fully updated to now.
Anyone experiencing same troubles???

[OT] LiveCD proved to be a valuable tool
by Smith, Herb
All,
My wife has a Dell set up as a dual boot with Fedora 6 and Windows XP.
Over the weekend a shutdown attempt went awry and something got
corrupted on her machine. Neither Fedora or Windows would boot. Fedora
would get past GRUB, but hang at the second step in the detailed boot
process. Windows would also hang somewhere.
I gave her the FC10 LiveCD to boot from. She was able to do so and used
the Logical Volume Management tool to mount both the Linux partition and
the NTFS partition. She was then able to remove all her files off to a
USB disk. She has now installed FC10 and is rebuilding her development
environment (she did not reinstall Windoze..).
The LiveCD proved to be a very useful tool to enable her to recover her
files. There may have been another way to recover from this, but since
Windoze was also hosed (even worse than it typically is... ) it felt
like there might not have been much that could have been done.

Creating a Windws XP virtual machine Fedora 11
by James Harrison
Hi
I am trying to create a virtual machine and install Windows XP. I am using Fedora 11.The system was last fully patched about an hour ago.
selinux is disabled.
root@pc32 ~]# uname -a
Linux x.com 2.6.29.6-217.2.16.fc11.i686.PAE #1 SMP Mon Aug 24 17:16:21 EDT 2009 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
When booting the virtual machine for the first time, the VM hangs with: "Booting from hard disk". Nothing else appears.
When I shutdown the VM /var/log/messages has:
Sep 2 03:42:44 pc32 libvirtd: 03:42:44.714: error : operation failed: could not query memory balloon allocation
... and a dialogue box appears with the same message: here is the trace:
Traceback (most recent call last):

NAT-setup: modification requared
by Hiisi
Dear List!
I have F11 machine which shares WEB to small home wired network. F11
computer has 3 ethernet adapters - one built in motherboard (eth0,
'main' adapter) and two additional cards (eth1,2). With grate help of
this list and even greater help of google I was able to set up NAT over
it. It worked perfect while there was only one client in the home
network - window$ laptop, connected to eth1 (eth2 was down). Now I added
second laptop - it runs ubuntu. I turned on eth2 and tried to do the
same trick with it but no lack until now. Here goes mine configuration:

Window$ laptop has 192.168.2.30 address and uses 192.168.2.20 (eth1 IP)
as gateway. DNS is the same as on F11 machine.
I've tried to set up 192.168.2.50 as IP for ubuntu laptop with default
gateway of eth2 IP address: 192.168.2.40. It doesn't work. When I'm
trying to ping 192.168.2.50 from F11 the result is:
ping 192.168.2.50
PING 192.168.2.50 (192.168.2.50) 56(84) bytes of data.
>From 192.168.2.20 icmp_seq=2 Destination Host Unreachable
>From 192.168.2.20 icmp_seq=3 Destination Host Unreachable
>From 192.168.2.20 icmp_seq=4 Destination Host Unreachable
^C
As I can understand packets go from wrong IP. Namely, from eth1 when I
would like them to go from eth2.
How to fix that?
Thank you for your attention!

Evince: Prints some images not others
by Smith, Herb
I have been trying to print a pdf document that contains several jpg
images. Some of them print, however others do not. This occurs on two
different systems so it does not seem to be a printer issue. Does
anyone know what would distinguish jpg files to make one print and
another just appear as a blank space?
Thanks

FC11 - flash plugin for Firefox
by Markus Kesaromous
I have posed this question to the firefox folks, but got no answers.
Hoping someone can advise/explain the cause of the problem.
I have installed
firefox-3.5.2-2.fc11.i586
and
flash-plugin-10.0.32.18-release.i386 (from adobe.com).
If I browse to a website like youtube, and open a video
and after viewing the video, I go on to doing oher things,
(without closing the youtube page).
After a while i want to play another video.
Well, the audio gets stuttered, and then I get a repetitive
stutter with lots of echo of the same word/phrase/sound.
Only way for me to fix it is to kill firefox and and restart.
If someone knows of another flash plugin that does not have
this problem, please let me know.
Cheers,
MK

F11: no sound
by lanas
Hello,
After the install and update (close to 600 packages were updated) of
Fedora 11 x86_64 there is no sound. On board sound is provided by
Nvidia. Ubuntu, installed previously, used to have sound. Installed
xine and mplayer (yum install xine, yum install mplayer) and both are
playing a ogg file but, no sound ever gets to the speakers.
What to do ?
Thanks for any advice.

Multiple IP addresses without aliasing?
by Ryan Lynch
Do the Fedora network init scripts support additional secondary IP
addresses without the use of alias labels? Does an option for IPv4
addresses exist that works like IPV6ADDR_SECONDARIES?
I just skimmed /usr/share/doc/initscripts-*/sysconfig.txt, but I
didn't see anything to that effect, so I'm guessing the answer is no,
and I have to use aliases and 'ifcfg-eth?:0' files.

yes i am doing also doing --delete and --exclude some directories from a list. Here is command i am using
rsync -e ssh -l bkp-user -avR --delete --exclude-from=${EXCLUDES}
@Tony as i mentioned earlier, i am using my host VM for heavy REMOTE backups
so I cant shutdown/mount any of my REMOTE live box to take backup.
I have taken very big backups in past on xen based VM's.
Chocking Network due to heavy rsync is something amazing for me.
Any other solution will be appreciated.
Regards, Mateen
