This is easy enough to work around.
1. rpm -Uvh java-1.5.0-sun-1.5.0.05-1jpp.nosrc.rpm 2. cd ~rpmbuild/SPECS 3. vi java-1.5.0-sun.spec 4. Set the %define buildver to 06 from 05 5. rpmbuild -bb java-1.5.0-sun.spec
The rest of what you do you can figure out from the document at Fedora News.

Hello All,
I've found most problems updating using yum resolve themselves within a few days. But this one has lingered for several weeks now. system-config-bind (4.0.0-38_FC4, the Red Hat BIND DNS Configuration Tool) shows up on the yumex list of packages to be updated. But the update bombs out with this message: Missing Dependency: libwx_gtk2-2.4.so.0(WXGTK2_2.4) is needed by package audacity Missing Dependency: libwx_gtk2-2.4.so.0 is needed by package audacity The problem is I have audacity (1.2.3-5.lvn.1.4) listed as already installed. What's going on here? Any advice as to how to proceed is appreciated, as always.

Can you not just try and install the shared objects.

These kernel modules often lag behind the main kernel release and hence cause dependency issues. Unless you're using GFS, you're better off without them.

My FC4 system hangs in that interval after logging off (or shutting down) from KDE but before the Fedora login screen comes on. I can move a cursor around with the mouse on the blank screen but get no response from clicking it, or from hitting anything on the keyboard. So, the reset button -- after which a command-line login appears and there's a normal-looking shutdown. The re-boot and login look normal.
Is there some other way of logging off (or shutting) down that might give me a clue as to what's happening?
I suspect a USB-related hardware issue but don't know for sure.

What about the reset button? Something appears to be missing from the sentence.
One chance to see where the problem might be is to switch over to a text console (e.g. CTRL+ALT+1), log in as root, then issue the poweroff command and watch the sequence of events.
You could also try just doing a telinit 3 or 1 in there, instead of poweroff, if you want to see whether quitting the GUI without going as far as shutting down shows up where a problemm is.

That should be CTRL + ALT + F1 (the F1 key, not just the 1 key at the end).

"So, the reset button" should read "So I hit the reset button."

The system just shuts down normally.

This is a neat diagnostic tool! When I do a teleinit 3 the first message is: PuteA login: FATAL: Error inserting acpi_cpufreq (/lib/modules/2.6.14-1.1656_FC4/kernel/aaarch/i386/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/acpi-cpufreq.ko): No such device
Then I get normal-looking service start-up lines (with an OK at the end of each) for pcmcia, irqbalance, lmsensors, and anacron. Then the system hangs.
Googling acpi_cpufreq gives me plenty of users saying they have problems related to this message (or at least are getting the message). But I haven't found any solutions yet!
Again, my specific problem occurs in logging off from KDE using the GUI. The system hangs before the login screen comes up.
Thanks for the help! Jerry

I fixed this by loading the second most recent kernel (2.6.11.1.1369_FC4) instead of the most recent kernel (2.6.14-1.1656_FC4) from the Grub menu. A lucky guess -- does anyone have any idea as to why this worked? For example, what does the difference between "1369_FC4" and "1656_FC4" mean in the name of a kernel?

From what I understand, this is nothing to worry about. It's trying to
do something that it's not able to, and doesn't *have* to, and fails in the attempt.
Then I get normal-looking service start-up lines (with an OK at the end of each) for pcmcia, irqbalance, lmsensors, and anacron. Then the system hangs.
Usually, the last thing you see is what you want to test out. Though I doubt anacron is the problem, you could try individually starting and stopping it. But a hang (or very long wait) at that point, or to do with starting X could indicate a name resolution issue.

I can only say to read the release notes for it. I don't know the specific differences between them. I can say that I don't have problems using Gnome with them. I don't have KDE on my system. You could try seeing whether you get a hang if you were using Gnome instead of KDE (or any other-than-KDE window manager), as a quick test.
I had a mix of wav files ripped from various CDs that I wanted to save to an external USB hard drive. (I'm still experimenting with the sound quality of the mp3 format.) All the files except those originally from one particular CD copied without problems -- but for those 3 files Konqueror gave me an "unable to copy" message. The strange thing was I was able to copy these files to directories elsewhere on internal hard drive but not to the external USB one. Is this some sort of weird copy protection scheme? Is there any way around it?

What filesystem is on the usb drive? Some of them (FAT, for instance) have restrictions on what characters can be in filenames. Others (FAT falls into this group, AFAIK) have limitations on file size...

Thanks for the heads up -- what was I thinking? Of course vfat would choke on a filename like Oasis-(What's_the_Story)_Morning_Glory?-Wonderwall.wav Another vote for linux....

I have had this issue with the libwx_gtk2 packages myself. I had to remove audacity and libwx_gtk2 to get past it.
I then installed then installed audacity from Dries which is version 1.3.
I just tried to install wxGTK2 and ended up with two dependencies for Audacity and Videolan client. Both of these are dependent on xwGTK.
This I feel is a problem more associated with the changes to GTK than yum.
As a test, I removed wxGTK which required removing audacity and videolan client.
I then installed xxGTK2 from extras. This brought in wxGTK-common as a dependency. I then installed audacity from extras. But when I tried to install videolan-client, I ended up with dependency issues between audacity, wxPythonGTK2, wxGTK2-gl and a few others. I don't have time to resolve these at this time but this proves to me that the issue is with the individual packages and not yum.
Time to file bug complaints to the package developers over the wxGTK2 issues.

Maybe the developers have been working on the problem. Although this didn't work before, I resolved the problem of updating system-config-bind (4.0.0-38_FC4 (the BIND DNS ConfigurationTool) by removing audacity first, then doing the update of system-config-bind, and then reinstalling audacity. This resolved all dependency issues.
Hello All,
Here's a linux issue that's starting to confuse me. Why is it that when I look at the properties of files and folders (via the right mouse button) I see that some have a url associated with them? These are not objects on the Web, but things like the Trash icon on the KDE desktop (trash:/).

Because a URL can describe more then a web page. Konqueror, the default KDE browser, is also a file system browser, and knows about a lot of formats that other browsers may not handle.

I've noticed that my /etc/grub.conf file contains kernel pairs that are identical except that one ends in "fc6" and the other in "fc6xen". What does the "xen" indicate? What's the difference between the two types and is there any way of telling which type works best on a machine?

The Xen kernel is for virtualization. If you want to run guest OS versions on your computer, the xen version is the choice to use.
I use the regular kernel version for two reasons. The xen kernel caused my computer to go into reboot cycles before it did anything. The other reason is I do not run virtual machines.
