I need to buy a new, replacement laptop and am looking at the Dell Inspiron 9400. But I'm concerned with the compatibility/driver issues especially w.r.t the video and audio support. For video, this machine can have either the onboard Intel 950, ATI x1400, or NVidia GeoForce Go 7900 GS at resolutions of either 1920x1080 or 1680x1050. Does Xorg therefore FC6 drive these resolutions on these video chips? Also, you get your choice of audio, is audio in _and_ out supported? Can anybody with one of these notebooks share their experiences?

As there were already discussions about initng, this seems much better, as it could run old init scripts, but adds event based capability.

I had to look on a couple of mirrors until I found this version. I then did the usual rpm -Uvh yum-2.9.5.4 and that should give you a working yum.

The ATI x1x00 chips do not have native open source driver support, so one must either use the proprietary ATI driver, or the 'vesa' driver. Not sure about the Nvidia card. Intel onboard graphics is the way to go nowadays if you want to use open source drivers with a reasonably full feature set, which are supported by both the hardware vendor and the OS vendor, and have future commitment as well. Intel has even recently created a new website just for Linux video support. -- Mike A.

If you verify the problem is gone with glibc-2.4.90-28, sure. Generally, when these errors show up, it is an application bug, only in between glibc-2.4.90-22 and 2.4.90-26 inclusive there have been bugs in malloc itself which caused the error to show up in some cases where >= 10000 free(3) calls have not been interleaved with any {m,c,re}alloc(3) calls.

Much of this work was in support of log file scanning which should be coupled to the exact same processing code as audit messages arriving from the audit socket. In essence log file scanning synthesizes an audit message and we inject it into the system the same way socket messages are injected. This was also an excellent moment correctly handle out of order audit messages, something we were not able to handle previously. This may have been contributing to splitting what should have been a single alert into two or more separate alerts because we didn't recongize the incoming audit events as a single event. Correctly assembling out of order messages introduced a fair amount of extra complexity as we now maintain a cache of recent audit events, this is fully documented in dispatcher.py * Turn notifications back on by default. - Karl MacMillan * Separated out HTML rendering and made it easier to translate. tomcat5-0:5.5.17-6jpp.2 ----------------------- * Wed Aug 30 2006 Deepak Bhole 5.5.17-6jpp.2 - Rebuilding. xkeyboard-config-0.8-7.fc6 -------------------------- * Fri Sep 01 2006 Alexander Larsson - 0.8-7 - Update macbook patch to be closer to what got in upstream - (kp enter is ralt, not the option key) Broken deps for ia64 ---------------------------------------------------------- virt-manager - 0.2.0-3.ia64 requires libvirt-python >= 0:0.1.4-3 virt-manager - 0.2.0-3.ia64 requires python-xeninst >= 0:0.90.1 From mike at miketc.com Sat Sep 2 12:50:01 2006 From: mike at miketc.com (Mike Chambers) Date: Sat, 02 Sep 2006 07:50:01 -0500 Subject: Logrotate error Message-ID: <1157201401.8034.0.camel@scrappy.miketc.com> I keep seeing this in my logs... /etc/cron.daily/logrotate: error: named:3 unknown user 'named' -- Mike Chambers Madisonville, KY "Sex is like air, it's not important unless your not getting any!"

Message-ID: <1993cbdc0609021019m201bebebxde4550a4f5d2b608@mail.gmail.com> hello, I was looking at the 'gnome-default-applications-properties' application, which should let you set you preferred webbrowser, e-mail client, terminal _and_ text-editor for the gnome-desktop. Only the text-editor part is completely gone from the program. Pushing the help-button brings up the help-file in yelp, which _does_ speak about the text-editor part as if it were still in the program. So is this a bug in the program? or a setting I missed? or a bug in the documentation? I checked in FC5 but noticed it isn't there either. I found bug 140865 for fc3, which mentions that changing the text-editor doesn't work. But there aren't any further replies.

Unfortunately, I can't seem to make FTP or HTTP installs work on my machines. (I suspect a marginal memory stick in the server.) The FTP and HTTP downloads fail and there is no time-out detection in anaconda or the get URL process to retry when they do fail. I'll try memory testing again on the server, but memtest86+ doesn't seem to catch the problem. Running SETI at Home or other math processes can lock the machine up quite reliably. I just hate marginally operative hardware! Even if it is a problem with my server, I think anaconda should attempt to detect time-outs and retry. --Wolfe -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

I haven't updated Xfce in rawhide yet as the current release is 4.4beta2. I don't want to put in a beta and have that be released with fc6. If the rc1 or rc2 are pretty stable and in time, I might be able to get it in before fc6 goes out... FWIW, I am running devel on my laptop and using the beta2 rpms from my repository, and have only run into a few snags.

If they share binary files, then this option gets ruled out as it will erase usefull files. I dont know what yum does internally. I have tried rebuilding the rpm database and yum clean all. But no help. Can I let the system remain as it is? Are the multiple packages only entries in yum database or I am having two version of the same software (seems unlikely)? Wont it create any problem?

The ATI card is detected properly but X selects the external video port (called "CRTC1" in /tmp/X.log) instead of the internal one (LVDS) which drives the laptop screen. Since there is no screen attached to the external port I only get a black screen and no graphical install. After installing FC6T2 in text mode due to lack of an external screen I had to add the Option "MonitorLayout" "LVDS,NONE" to the videocard0 device section in /etc/xorg.conf to get X going. Seems the radeon driver is rather fond of that external video port. Is there any way to force the installer to use the internal LVDS video port instead of the external CRTC1 video port? Or should I bz it? If so under anaconda or xorg-x11-drv-ati, something else? Thanks and regards, Patrick From mharris at mharris.ca Mon Sep 4 19:24:57 2006 From: mharris at mharris.ca (Mike A.

Seems the radeon driver > is rather fond of that external video port. The Radeon driver's display autodetection/selection code is very broken and has been for a while now. The MonitorLayout directive exists to force the driver to override what the broken detection logic uses by default. > Is there any way to force the installer to use the internal LVDS video > port instead of the external CRTC1 video port? MonitorLayout is the only way. > Or should I bz it? If so under anaconda or xorg-x11-drv-ati, something else? Not really. The problem is that in order for everything to "just work", _something_ has to be able to probe the video card and correctly autodetect what attached displays are present, and also correctly assign them. That really is the job of the video driver, and it is not doing that properly right now. The installer does not have any low level knowledge of the internals of every video card, so this is totally the responsibility of the video drivers to properly detect attached video hardware. If the drivers do not detect the hardware properly, then the hardware can not easily be set up to work properly with the attached displays. There is some confusion by people over MonitorLayout as well. Many people have to use the MonitorLayout directive in order to have working video at all, and so think that anaconda should use MonitorLayout by default so they have working video. The problem is that MonitorLayout is *only* required when the driver does not detect the hardware properly, and when that is the case, there is no way for anaconda to know what exact hardware is connected, or how it should specify the MonitorLayout option as it varies from hardware to hardware. As a result, there are only 2 options at this time: 1) Users have to manually insert MonitorLayout directives into their config file themselves, as it is not something that is currently autodetectable, and if it was, then there would in fact be no need for the MonitorLayout directive itself. Keep in mind this directive is a *hack* to work around display detection code which is broken and does not work properly on all hardware. 2) Wait until someone fixes the radeon driver to properly detect all attached displays on all Radeon hardware, and it works 100% of the time on _ALL_ Radeons. In which case the MonitorLayout directive should essentially become obsolete and no longer required. Since these flaws in the radeon driver are already very widely known both to Red Hat and to X.Org upstream, and have been reported by many people in bugzilla over the last year or so, it's not particularly useful IMHO to file another bug report which will just get closed as a duplicate of an existing bug... Instead, query X.Org bugzilla for an existing report which has various dupes closed against it, and CC yourself on that bug to track any progress. I'm not sure if anyone upstream is currently working on a solution to this long standing problem or not, but it'll likely be sorted out eventually. Until then, MonitorLayout specified manually by the user is the only option, or sticking with a much older (and no longer supported) OS release that predates the display detection code going to hell. ;o) -- Mike A.

Not that I'm aware of, but Jeremy Katz would know for sure. I suspect there is no such install time option though, as there are probably 50 to 100 different driver workaround options in various drivers throughout X, as well as server options all intended to work around either hardware or driver limitations of this nature. The anaconda development team is probably not too keen on adding a bunch of driver workaround options for things that are easily worked around either via kickstart or by manual editing or shell scripting post install. In short... don't hold your breath. ;o) >> I'm not sure if anyone upstream is currently working on a solution to >> this long standing problem or not, but it'll likely be sorted out >> eventually.

Problems getting baseurl etc. As it turns out I had a problem also using wget which complained about a proxy - strange because I wasn't running squid! Then I found the environment variable http_proxy is being set to the localhost. Yum quietly uses this and when it can't find the proxy it gives misleading messages (albeit true) about not being able to find a baseurl. Solution: "unset http_proxy" then yum Question: how and why is this being set if squid or some other proxy isn't set up?

The packaging is deliberately done since we dont have a way to install drivers on demand currently. It was discussed a while back in fedora-devel list when we switched into modular Xorg.

It makes sense to split it up because it saves time in building the packages and releasing it independently when there is a security bug in one of the drivers for example. In the future, if we have the ability to install drivers on demand, the packaging might be changed but it might not be worth the pain (put a disc or setup a network) for a short amount of space saving.

Now when an update is made to an upstream driver, the X maintainer just has to respin the driver, not the entire Xorg blob. An update can be made just for the driver package which is a MUCH smaller download than the entire Xorg blob. If in the future we get some way of doing dynamic package loading based on hardware detection, then we can trim out the packages. -- Jesse Keating Release Engineer: Fedora -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

I understand the reasons for going modular, and I love the idea. I guess the big question in my mind is why do I care if the s3 driver or vmware driver has a security hole and needs an update? Sure, I won't be using it - ever - which means it can have all the holes in there it likes, it will never get run. Keeping this in mind, why would I want to bother downloading updates for X drivers that I don't have? Even at worst case, and I did pull my laptop apart, desoldered the video chips and upgraded the card (or simply replaced the card in a desktop :)), then hopefully I'd know that I can install the latest driver via yum from a console (even if X completely refused to work!). Following this even further, even if I didn't know what graphics card drivers are out there, I could use 'yum list xorg-x11-drv*' to get a list and go from there. Maybe this is best dealt with in the installer - as it already setup up X to work after the installation, it could easily know what video driver to install and choose not to install the rest. I guess I just see it as another 58 or so packages I don't have to worry about or see or update. -- Steven Haigh Email: netwiz at crc.id.au Web: http://www.crc.id.au Phone: (03) 9017 0597 - 0412 935 897 From sundaram at fedoraproject.org Tue Sep 5 14:57:53 2006 From: sundaram at fedoraproject.org (Rahul) Date: Tue, 05 Sep 2006 20:27:53 +0530 Subject: Removing unwanted xorg-x11-drv packages In-Reply-To: <44FD8F01.5040809@feuerpokemon.de> References: <19CC95D1-F5B8-4833-A3D0-527F95D5F814@crc.id.au> <200609050936.42151.sgrubb@redhat.com> <44FD7E98.4010302@fedoraproject.org> <44FD8F01.5040809@feuerpokemon.de> Message-ID: <44FD9071.7060302@fedoraproject.org> dragoran wrote: >> In the future, if we have the ability to install drivers on demand, >> the packaging might be changed but it might not be worth the pain (put >> a disc or setup a network) for a short amount of space saving. > but this should also work if a user don't have a internet connection > (asking for a cd/dvd or anything like this) I already mentioned that we need to handle discs above.

You can force remove packages by ignoring the dependencies if this bothers you but that is not recommended at all.

When I use metacity, it looks right, but when I use compiz it is about the size of one desktop and not 4 like it used to be. I'm guessing it has something to do with compiz's cube extension. Also, has anyone noticed a problem where when you are using compiz and gnome-screensaver and you have the lock desktop enabled you can't unlock the desktop, but if you use ALT-TAB you can see your apps, but not do anything with them. I believe this starting working this way after the most recent changes to compiz the COW changes went in.

I just gave it a try on my Acer 4005WMLi that is running rawhide as of two hours ago. The firmware file used with bcm43xx-fwcutter seems to have an impact on the proper working. I used the wl_apsta.o firmware file. After that I loaded the bcm43xx module, configured /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf with my network (uses WPA-AES/CCMP) and configured /etc/sysconfig/wpa_supplicant with the proper settings. Then started wpa_supplicant -Dwext -ieth1 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf and wpa_gui and amazingly enough it actually found my AP and authenticated itself successfully and got an IP address via DHCP. So this method seems to work. Haven't tried NetworkManager yet but my experience with that so far were not good.

The point of splitting them up, was to allow individual drivers to be updated alone, to make maintenance of the driver packages simpler. It was also to minimize the disk space usage on FTP servers and mirror sites and network bandwidth usage consumed on those sites, and on RHN et al. when a single driver needs to be updated. To be very clear, never at any point in the decision to have individual driver rpms, was it to allow people to uninstall drivers they didn't want or need (or didn't think they wanted or needed), nor was it to reduce or enable the user to reduce the amount of disk space used by an OS installation. The total disk space used by all X drivers combined is extremely small, both in terms of megabytes, and in terms of dollars of disk space. Small enough on the scale of care, to be totally negligible. -- Mike A.

However, it may not be accurate for someone struggling in a non-profit, or for someone in Africa or Asia. This sort of decision, across a lot of packages, has lead to Fedora bloat, making it less attractive to people on tight budgets. For another example, do we really need CD writing software in order to run gnome? Well, not if the machine doesn't have a CD burner. To paraphrase Lyndon Johnson, a megabyte here, a megabyte there, pretty soon it adds up. What we need is a generic dummy application. It pops up, or prints to stdout, as appropriate, something like, "Sorry but %s is not installed. Please install it, as root, like so: 'yum install %s'.

Pull the yum package headers, parse for /usr/bin /usr/sbin etc paths for executables and ln -s them all to a python app which can do X or command line.

Anyway the file is called "wl_apsta.o" and has no version. http://openwrt.inf.fh-brs.de/~nbd/wl_apsta.o [snip] > I have been trying to use both iwconfig and NetworkManager with no luck. Just tried wpa_supplicant & NetworkManager. It does not work with WiFi, bcm43xx and WPA. Then again, the bcm43xx sometimes needs to be removed and inserted again when it gets lost so the bcm43xx module is probably to blame too. Also tried ndiswrapper version 1.23 with wpa_supplicant and NetworkManager. Same story. No go. In both cases (bcm43xx & ndiswrapper) I can start wpa_supplicant and wpa_gui from the commandline, see it authenticate in a jiffy and issue dhclient eth1 to get an IP address.

However, this means that if you had 'Clarius' as your default, it would switch to 'Custom', as it wouldn't be able to find 'Clarius' any more....

(W98 at least) The beauty with Linux is that you put in some hardware and it is relatively easy to be up and running without needing to hunt all over the Internet or install media for the appropriate drivers for the hardware. It is great for the system to be loaded as it is now. If it was decided to slim down the unused elements until needed, compressing the elements like is done for documentation would be a better concept in my opinion. I recently installed FC4 on a computer and all of the hardware worked on initial setup. Everything still worked after upgrading the system to FC5. (Except for a minor configuration file). In comparison, I installed W2K on the same system and it did not recognize the modem, sound card, video card on install. I had to install a known to work network card, hunt the Internet for specific drivers which were provided for the particular motherboard in order to get the other hardware to work. Way off the basic topic I realize. In cases regarding video cards, I change from one card to another video card frequently. Having all the drivers available and only needing to change the configuration file or allow hardware detection to make the needed adjustments is a plus and not a waste of space. People install the Fedora Distribution on one computer and swap the disk into other computers for its intended use. It works easily with the current way that most devices are ready to go with minor changes. One individuals bloat is an asset for other goals people intend to use a system for. Why complain about the drivers being there? You could probably remove the package that pulls in the requires for all of the video driver packages. Then you can customize your system to be one video driver centric. Before the hub package, I had to manually hunt and yum in different drivers for each system that I ran it on. Who needs that!

And is probably an OOo bug triggered by the fix for 204920 as OOo didn't change in between. The next respin of OOo will likely fix this for rawhide. More disturbingly the db4 fc5-updates-testing will probably trigger the same problem, and maybe another one, for fc-5. And I so didn't want to push any more fc-5 updates. C.

My point is that installed system disk-space usage of the video and input drivers was not part of the deciding factor that went into choosing to modularize the drivers - regardless of wether or not somebody out there might have some benefit of not installing all of the drivers. I've stated this only because some people might mistakenly be of the opinion that the modularization of X was done to make it possible to reduce the space used by drivers on an installed system, and that very much was not the case. -- Mike A.

Think of modular X along the same lines as the kernel modules. You may get a kernel update because of a problem in some module that you may not be using, but we package all the modules up in one package set. Separating them all out does NOT make sense, whereas it does for Xorg. If you're building for extremely tight places, you're probably rebuilding the kernel and only bringing in the modules you need. Do the same for X. -- Jesse Keating Release Engineer: Fedora -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

I'm guessing that the failure to blank in the second reply was due to the disc being mounted during the write attempt. Like cdrecord, cdrdao requires the disc to be unmounted when it tries to write. Unlike cdrecord, it doesn't close the drive door automatically, which is what the "eject -t" is for (the idea is to make sure the write command runs immediately after the door closes, before the automount happens).

Probably not as horribly as it is on my system :-). For some reason I get a screen (regardless of splash image) with total gibberish as if the video is completely out of wack. If I turn off the splash option and use plain text menu, it looks fine. I think this has something to do with the video mode switching that goes on as it moves from bios display to grub display to chainloading a different grub. Sometimes the 2nd grub is scrambled, but it happens very infrequently when an FC5 partition is the 2nd grub, and virtually 100% of the time when FC6t2 is the 2nd grub. I kinda liked the fedora drip too - you oughta bring it back :-).

Description : Imlib is a display depth independent image loading and rendering library. Imlib is designed to simplify and speed up the process of loading images and obtaining X Window System drawables. Imlib provides many simple manipulation routines which can be used for common operations. The imlib package also contains the imlib_config program, which you can use to configure the Imlib image loading and rendering library. Imlib_config can be used to control how Imlib uses color and handles gamma corrections, etc. Install imlib if you need an image loading and rendering library for X11R6, or if you are installing GNOME. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: The imlib package was not rebuilt against giflib when libungif was replaced by giflib, and therefore imlib-devel had an unsatisfiable dependency on libungif-devel.

GRUB logo is still rainbowed on my i810/i915GM card 2. Logo while booting is the new helix one 3. GDM is the older background Fedora Bubbles (which I actually like better than the helix) 4. When starting GNOME there is no GNOME Splash 5. There is no default background in the Change Desktop Background and the Helix is not in the list, however, they are in the directory, it just seems they are not getting picked up. All of the other images in that directory are being shown. Just a comment on the new logo, personally I think they are a little dark, that and the fact that I like the default FC5 images. If only for the fact that with compiz we now have transparent shadows on all the windows, with this dark logo and screen background you can't see the shadows. So lightening them up with be preferred.

Message-ID: I'm new here and IRC hasn't proven fruitful.... A question about bug reporting etiquette: FC6T2, X is consistently crashing deader than a door nail (need to cycle power) with blank screen at startup for an S3 "savage". I've seen this intermittently with FC5 (but dismissed it [sorry] when I got it working), and just for kicks I found that the Ubuntu 6.06 Live CD dies also. Crashes with original xorg.conf as well as one from `Xorg -configure`. xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.1.1-34.fc6 xorg-x11-xinit-1.0.2-9.fc6 xorg-x11-drv-savage-2.1.1-5.fc6 My overpopulated gut tells me it's an "upstream" issue, but what does it know?
