On filling in the Network Configuration DNS tab then restarting Network
Configure the DNS values have disappeared and are blank.
Hope you can help. Many thanks in advance,

NFS Buffering
by Simon Andrews
I have a fedora 13 box on which I have a remote mounted nfs share over a
fairly slow (10Mb/s) link. I'm then transferring data onto this share
from a different machine using scp.
The problem is that after scp reports that it's 100% complete the
program will hang for ~20 mins before it will move on to another file.
At this point it can't be killed.
It looks like the nfs daemon is caching write data (around 2GB of it)
which lets scp think its finished when actually there's loads of data
sitting in a write buffer. The hanging is presumably the time it takes
to flush the buffer (there is a process called nfsiod which is active
during this time and df shows data is still being written).
Does anyone know how to either make this buffer smaller, or get rid of
it all together so the scp can accruately report on its progress?
Thanks
Simon.

Desktop effects not working
by ashish
I have installed FC-!3 in my system.Everything is working fine except the
desktop effects.
If i turn them on i cannot launch any applications like gimp or open office.
If i click on any of the applications the machine will either get stuck or i

logged out .
I am using a intel machine with core 13 processor and with 4GB RAM.
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Core Processor

Is there an archive of previous RPM versions from the updates repo?
by Robert Nichols
Specifically, I'm looking for xscreensaver-base-5.11-9.fc12.respin1.i686 and
the corresponding xscreensaver-gl-base, xscreensaver-gl-extras, and
xscreensaver-gl-extras-gss RPMs. The current 5.12-1 releases break a couple
of things on my system, and "yum downgrade" only offers to go all the way
back to the 5.10-2 release from the original F-12 distribution.

RE: Workspace switcher crashes at 20

I ran into this issue when increasing from 14 to 18 workspaces.
You could switch between spaces with the mouse but as soon as you
use ctl+alt+arrows metacity would crash with the assertion failure.
I found a way to get around this by naming the workspaces.
Currently I have 20 workspaces configured.

fedora system-switch-mail alternative
by davidapr@gmail.com
Guys, any of you knows if there is a way to change the mail transport agent
in fedora, from sendmail to postfix for example without using
system-switch-mail, what would be the manual way to do that?
Thanks..
