F7 test1 x64 DVD install report

[Mladen Kuntner]

Hi.

Sending a F7 test1 x64 DVD install report.


Early in install there was an error like unable to find install media
and window with drivers selection list.
After few tries the right one was AMD PATA so i was able to continue
installation.
This is on Gigabyte nforce motherboard.
lspci shows:
00:06.0 IDE interface: nVidia Corporation CK804 IDE (rev a2)

Install and post install went ok.

On first boot monitor (Hansol 900P) was not found so i had
max resolution of 800x600.
After “yum install system-config-display ” i set monitor manually
and can set resolution to 1600x1200.

On turning printer (Samsung ML 1610 usb) there was a window to select
printer but on ok nothing happened.
After “yum install system-config-printer” it was posible to install
printer manually and is working ok.

Usb memory stick works ok.

On turning camera on there is gthumb's window to import photos
but clicking on ok does nothing.
I found that there is no disk device associated with camera created
in /dev directory.
(udev bug?)

to get sound (is there a better way?) tvtime works ok.

I was unable to get sound with gnomeradio (was ok in FC6).


Video camera JVC GR DVL 157E firewire (not working)
lsmod shows
fw_ohci 23432 0 
fw_core 45512 1 fw_ohci

and there is, when i turn camera on
crw------- 1 root root 252, 0 2007-02-10 22:35 fw1
in /dev

but dvgrab is not working:
raw1394 - failed to get handle: No such file or directory.

I understand that it is new firewire stack in 2.6.20 kernels
and it looks ok but what about user programs?


This all on rawhide updated 10.2.2007

kernel 2.6.20-1.2922.fc7 #1 SMP
