After thinking about this a little, it may reflect a problem with your DHCP
server not setting things properly. Since you're using wlan0 I assume this is a
portable machine, take it to someplace with free public Wifi and see if it does
the same thing. Usual rules about security & public Wifi apply, just opening a
connection shouldn't be an issue.

problems should be read as programs, i.e. it seems that a problem of graphic
driver (that is intel in my case) that it was not updated recently.
I do not
know where the problem is: shal I file a bug???
I changed the subject as I
realized that Firefox is not to be blamed.....

lm_sensors-3.3.2-5.fc17.src.rpm :: error rebuilding on centos
by Adrian Sevcenco
Hi! I try to rebuild the lm_sensors on centos 5.x but i have a quite
strange error after the command "rpmbuild -ba lm_sensors.spec" in
~/rpmbuild/SPECS :
Executing(%install): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.33336
/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.33336..21: umask 022

any idea why it tries to install at the rpm making step?
the rpm was taken from :

Thank you!

OT slightly
by Roger
Using fully updated ruby and Rails on Fedora 16. Trying to learn rails.
I have
Is there a Rails forum or group in Melbourne or Australia to whom I can
ask questions.
I had a look at github but it is very confuzzling, looks like it's for
highly skilled devs. I couldn't find anywhere to ask learner's questions.
thank you in advance

F16 on Lenovo x120e - cannot resume out of suspend mode
by Robert Moskowitz
This started last friday. Basically if I suspend the system comes up
but no video and no keyboard response. Power switch off does not seem
to work, I have to pull AC and battery and I hear the drive stop.
This started when I had some runaway tasks that were eating up all my
CPU (only single core model) so I was switching to terminal 2
<ctl-alt-sft-F2>, running top, figuring out what might be going crazy,
switching back to terminal 1 and stopping programs. After about 5 of
these switchs, no switching back to terminal 1 and reboot and poweroff
did not do anything (actually no keyboard response). I ended up pulling
the battery. Since then suspend has stopped working right; don't know
if they are related.
This evening, I powered up, applied all updates, powered down, powered
up, powered down, powered up, THEN tried suspend and no dice still.
I WAS traveling and thursday, the notebook was in my backback on a 9
hour drive, but not particularly bounced around. It came out of suspend
just fine friday morning. Or so it seemed.
Advice for trouble shooting? I really don't want to reinstall Fedora, I
was hoping to wait until F18 for the next OS install.

You should be able to use /etc/dhcp/dhclient-wlan0.conf .
