Re: [389-users] REPLICATION ISSUE CONSUMER TO CONSUMER !!!!

Conky troubles
Hi everyone, For a few months now I have been unable to run conky with XFCE. Earlier the following configuration used to work without any problems: background yes ... own_window yes own_window_class Conky own_window_type override own_window_transparent yes But since a few months back this stopped working. I like to have it displayed on all desktops overlayed translucently on the wallpaper, so I tried the options desktop and override. With override I don't get any display at all, with desktop I get a display but it goes away the moment I click on the desktop. I have tried running conky with or without the daemonize/background option with no avail. Anyone has any ideas about what could be the problem here? TIA -- Suvayu Open source is the future.

So the decision to use LVM is solely dependent on how flexible you want your disk partitioning setup to be. This would be to have the ability to resize partitions more easily, correct? Is there really any benefit to doing this on a system with a fixed number of disks? Well it all depends on how you intend to use your workstation. For example if your work involves using multiple distros or OSs then partitioning flexibility provided by LVM might be very beneficial. Or maybe if you use lots of virtual machines, then again a flexible disk management scheme might be helpful. On the other hand if your use case is more like, install once and work on one stable platform then you might find the flexibility features provided by LVM redundant. It is entirely dependent upon how you are going to use your workstation. It would be unwise to recommend anything without knowing the details of how you intend to work. However if you ask my personal opinion in a general scenario, I find having LVM on drives with lots of data more sensible. You never know when you might need to alter your partitioning scheme.

PEBCAK and frustrated stupidity still exists -- be warned!
This note is just to get some frustration off my chest and to remind the Fedora community that stupidity can reign no matter how smart you might think you are. Just did a virgin Fedora 14 reinstall after completely screwing up my operating system because I thought I had a failing disk drive. The one that has all my backups. Compounding my problems by losing grub and my WindowsXP partition. After spending more than a day working on it, and a couple of calls to my vendor, my solutions got more and more inventive until I managed to just about blow the whole machine up. Only then, in my frustration, did I think to take the side panel off my computer, jiggle the cables to the harddrive, remove the cable and reattach it. Fixed everything. Now I am busy trying to get everything back to the way I like. No reply necessary. Just thought someone else might be in the throws of some frustrated, non-thinking stupidity and might need a warning to stop, take a breath, indulge in the sin of your choice and think before doing any more damage. Particularly, try to keep screwdrivers out of your hands at times like these. I know you might say, I have been there, done that. Even bought the T-shirt. But PEBAK continues exist in the best of families. -- Regards Bill Fedora 14, Gnome 2.32 Evo.2.32, Emacs 23.2.1 -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines

Where to set ENV vars for use at boot time

I tried /etc/sysconfig/init but I don't think that had the desired effect, or my value of 1 was not meaningful to fsck the man pages say only that the environment variable affects fsck, it doesn't say that variable needs a specific value.

Another option would be to run Windows in a virtual machine. Do you know where the instructions to do this are available? There's to many ways to make a complete list here with instructions, but I personally use VirtualBox[1]. It's relatively easy to setup and the performance is pretty good on modern hardware. They have a yum repository to make installation[2] and updates easy. The link is for version 3.2 but just replace 3.2 in the install instructions with 4.0 to get the latest released version. I haven't installed on a clean system for a while so I assume it pulls in kernel-headers and kernel-devel when you install. If not you'll need to install those packages as well. It needs them to build the kernel module.

Re: Partitioning questions
Hi, raid cannot be partitioned. lvm _is_ partitioning. That's somewhat misleading, I think. As I interpret what I do to create software RAIDs with Fedora: 1. Partitioning is something that you do to a raw disk. Or a RAID array when setting up LVM on top of it, correct? 3. Partitions or RAID devices can contain filesystems or LVM physical volumes. Yes, which is what I believe I added above. So on a system where there will never be any disks added or partitions resized, is the extra complexity (abstraction) worthwhile? How about recovering from a disk failure? Does this layer above RAID complicate the process of rebuilding an array?

Hi, I'm not sure if this matters but evolution switched to using the latest XDG standards[1] for file locations in 2.32. Your user data is now no longer in .evolution, rather its in .config/evolution. The new version should automatically move files to the new location iirc. OR: You can use gconf-editor to see the settings for the address book. iirc, the source etc. are specified there. I had some trouble after a back up and restore, making some changes to the gconf files fixed it. Do back up your gconf settings before you go tweaking (~/.gconf/apps/evolution). You should also skim the evolution bug reports to see if this is a known issue.
