How to start selenium-server on Fedora?
by Felix Schwarz
Hi,
I installed selenium-server on Fedora 13 but now I have problems
actually starting the server. The problem is that the server uses many
libraries which are bundled in upstream's binary distribution but of
course they are unbundled in Fedora.
I'm looking the Fedora equivalent of
java -jar selenium-server.jar
I tried (online line)
java -cp
/usr/share/java/selenium-server-coreless.jar:/usr/share/java/commons-logging.jar:/usr/share/java/ant.jar:/usr/share/java/servlet.jar
org.openqa.selenium.server.SeleniumServer
The server starts up but when I connect with a Python client, I get this
stack trace on the console and no browser is opened:
http://pastebin.com/tEbfVN1h
What's the correct command to start up the selenium server?

Status of SSDs under Fedora ?
by linux guy
I'm thinking of getting an Intel 160 GB SSD. How would it work under
Linux ?
I'm using ext4 for that drive right now. Is there a better filesystem
for SSDs ?
Is there anything that I should be aware of as far as switching ?
Thanks

I suppose eol includes the PPC distro?
which means I'm going to have to either start learning how to roll my
own Fedora now, or start getting ready to switch back to openBSD on
my PPC machines.
Probably a little of both until I decide which fits my taste better.
Since I'm looking for work anyway, I suppose now would be as good a
time as any, although I already have too many interesting projects to
sweeten my resume with.

Getting FC13 to use VESA mode for Intel video
by Bill Davidsen
A few weeks ago I upgraded a machine from fc9 to fc13, figuring that the
KVM would be better, security would be way better, etc. But it turns out
that the display, which insists on operating using the "interdrmfb"
driver, and it is just bearable for simple admin using either xterm or
gnome-terminal, and utterly useless for connecting to the VMs running.
It's like watching sand painting, literally minutes go by before the
screen finishes updating.
Since this has been around since fc9 was the new puppy in the litter,
and has worked fine using vesa mode since then, I want to scrap this
garbage driver which will do 3D wobbly windows or whatever, and go back
to writing pixels on the screen.
Tried nomodeset, tried using vga=0x318, tried video=vesafb, dried
setting the X driver to vesa, and it insists on using inteldrmfb. We
finally tried renaming the driver or blacklisting it, and then we get a
boot without console.
Is there some way to get this working, or is a fallback to fc9 the
easiest solution until the regressions are fixed? If I don't find a
solution by Friday I spend my three day weekend working in a building
with the a/c off while I roll the o/s back. By edict hardware will not
change for 53 weeks, change of video is not happening and dammit
shouldn't be needed.
