It's not necessary to remove nspluginwrapper, which is used for other
stuff besides Flash. Just don't configure it for the flash plugin.

What is more likely is that the motherboard is using a different
hard drive controller. The new controller requires a different
module from the original one. So you have to build a new initrd for
that system. This was covered in detail on the list a while back.

Depending on the other hardware, you may have to run kudzu, or you
may have to delete some or all of the
/etc/udev/rules.d/??-persistent*.rules files.

2008-11-19 Thread Robert P. J. Day

  long story short:  x86-64 f10 preview install on AMD64 laptop.
install coldfire cross-compile toolchain, which immediately fails
looking for /lib/ld-linux.so.2, which it obviously won't find since
the system has /lib64/ld-2.9.so (along with various symlinks).

  solution?

Moving Fedora 9 Hard Disk To Another System

2008-11-19 Thread Manish Kathuria
For a large installation of Fedora 9 we are cloning an updated system
on identical hard disks and then using that hard disk on other
systems. Most of the systems are either Pentium 4 or Core Duo
processor based and are capable of running the same kernel (i686) The
minor problems being faced include difference in network card drivers
requiring reconfiguration . However in certain cases, though we are
able to successfully boot Fedora 9 on a system using a cloned hard
disk but if the same hard disk is moved to another system having a
different motherboard, the system boot process comes to a halt after a
few steps as it is not able to locate the file systems on the hard
disk. The GRUB screen is displayed indicating that the MBR is being
read properly. Can there be a likelihood of the disk geometry being
interpreted in different manner leading to non recognition of
filesystems ? I would appreciate any tips or suggestions.

It depends on your system. The power button is captured and
processed by default by acpid, but there are other packages that add
more rules for other ACPI events. You can also add your own rules.
Take a look in /etc/acpi/events to see what events are being
processed. You may also want to take a look at /etc/acpi/actions.

Running halt or shutdown works the same as it does in any other run

Do you have an eth0 configuration file that has a HWADDR= line in it,
with the MAC of your old ethernet card after the equals sign?  If so,
then it's holding eth0 for that card, even if that card isn't still in
the box.  Remove the line, or set it to the MAC of your new card.

Network Card Naming Issue

2008-11-19 Thread Manish Kathuria
Hi,

I have experienced a strange issue in Fedora 9 while replacing
ethernet cards. Whenever a network card is replaced in Fedora 9, many
times the new NIC takes a new logical interface name instead of taking
the original interface name. For example, if a network card eth0 is
removed from a Fedora 9 system and is replaced by another network
card, the new card appears as eth1 or eth2 instead of eth0. This
happens even if the cards are having the same chipset (and therefore
the driver). What could be the reason for this behaviour ?  It leads
to a number of problems like modification in scripts, etc. I have
never observed this in the earlier distributions.

Thanks,

Re: set up NAT (network address translation) on local server

2008-11-19 Thread Christopher K. Johnson

No snat rule in effect!

Was the rule you provided in your original post verbatim?  Because it 
had 'a' instead of the public address.  In fact the rule seemed overly 
specific in other ways too.
Here is what I have for a snat rule where the public (Internet) 
interface is eth1 (substitute your public ip address for a.b.c.d:


-A POSTROUTING -o eth1 -j SNAT --to-source a.b.c.d

Resulting in (again substituted a.b.c.d for the real public address):
Chain POSTROUTING (policy ACCEPT 36819 packets, 4482K bytes)
pkts bytes target prot opt in out source   
destination
39065 2513K SNAT   all  --  *  eth10.0.0.0/0
0.0.0.0/0   to:a.b.c.d


If your rule is correct, then you need to activate your iptables file 
rules by:

service iptables restart

Chris

 pkts bytes target prot opt in out source   destination

Chain POSTROUTING (policy ACCEPT 0 packets, 0 bytes)
 pkts bytes target prot opt in out source   destination

64-bit CLISP works on some platforms. Last I checked, OpenBSD did not
have 64-bit CLISP. I think I remember that FreeBSD and SUSE11 do.
I think to some degree it's a question of manpower and other resources.

They have no rpm and their instructions suck, but the plugin itself
seems to be ok.  I've been using it for a few days.  

Here is what I did to install it so that all the users could have
access:

yum erase flash-plugin.i386 nspluginwrapper.x86_64 nspluginwrapper.i386 

cd /tmp
wget

normally, to detect a routing problem, you would run traceroute command
(on windows it's tracert) but of course it will only go so far before it
starts showing breaks which would seem to be your Linux firewall/router.

So it would be most useful to give us the output of the commands as
asked for by Chris Johnson.

I switched to fc4/64-bit (I think) from netbsd/64-bit and
openbsd/64-bit for the better apm support on the laptop, but I didn't
notice any great changes in how userland behaved.  The BSD's seemed to
handle large address space programs a bit better when they started
swapping, but it wasn't enough of a problem to force me back.  We are
talking about a program with a 13 gig working set and 4 gigs dram, but
with very good locality of reference.

I'm surprised that clisp hasn't been hacked to run on Linux/64-bit.
Back when I cared about such things folks were always drooling over
large sparse address spaces and how it was going to help all sorts of
aspects of creating lisp objects.  I'm surprised to see that now that
it is available nobody seems to care enough to actually make the code
work.

Q1   Are all whois requests timing out or just this one?  e.g.  whois
cnn.com  works? fails?

Q2   Have you tried something like wireshark or tcpdump and filtered on
port 43 (whois port)?

I suppose the config file is the first place to look, but what is the
relevant section?  Couldn't see anything relevant in bugzilla.  I'm
using F8 if that makes a difference.

Looks like your rpmfusion mirror is more up-to-date than your 
updates-newkey mirror.  Give it time, or use a different fedora mirror.

I need a little bit of help in setting up NAT.  I can use the

The solution depends on your card (I have an Intel onboard card).
But this material may give you an idea on what you can try:

HOW the "H" do you get the Mic working in FC8

2008-11-19 Thread Jim

FC8/KDE
I have gone into Alsamixer selected MIC, enabled, Mic 1 is selected,  
what else must I do to get MIC working.

In Kmix all settings are enabled for MIC .
The Mic is the most Frustrating thing to get working in the sound system.
How do you run Pulse to check Mic Settings.
The MIC is also a problem FC10,  submitted  messages to  Fedora-test 
and  filed bug report, no body can  help.

Anyhow  back to FC 8 Mic problems.

I NEVER trust cable select.  Use the master and slave hard jumpers on
the drives.  In your case (with them on separate IDE buses), set them
both to master.


The motherboard is ASUS P4B533-E with a P-4 processor.  The  40 gig hard
drive already has F9 on it but it had been set up on a failed motherboard
with an AMD µprocessor on it.  So I am dead in the water until I can read
the CD.


Are you sure the CD is bootable?  If you stuff it into another machine
and look at it, you should see a bunch of files on it, not a single
file.  If you see a single file, you burned the CD wrong.

Oh, and you're sure it's a CD and not a DVD you're trying to put into a
CD drive?  Most F9 media is DVD (except for the live CDs).

The string usb-storage appears nowhere be it under /etc

Re: good cordless mouse?

2008-11-19 Thread Dr. Michael J. Chudobiak
Yes, the middle mouse wheel functions. The back and forward buttons work 
in Firefox as well.


However, I believe Logitech sets the default logic for something else. I 
cheated and used Windows to configure the mouse to my liking, so that 
may have something to do with it. It seems the mouse has an EPROM that 
only the Windows driver can set. Stuff like the motor on the middle 
wheel can be adjusted through the Windows driver, and it is retained for 
as long as you have the mouse on (OS independent).


Thanks for the tip! There is a linux program that will set the eprom in 
the MX Revolution (http://goron.de/~froese/revoco). Running:


./reveco free

did the trick for me. The wheel now scrolls and middle-clicks for me, 
without any xorg.conf tweaks.

It is much closer than before.


You have to deal with routing and NAT somewhere.  You might
avoid it if you run a nameserver and squid proxy on the host
and configure the clients to use the proxy.  Otherwise you
need the host to route the packets if you have a NAT gateway
elsewhere, or to route and NAT if nothing but the host knows
about this subnet.

Anywhere you send packets needs some way to get the response back to the 
sender.  One way to do this is to plan things so all of your private 
subnets are unique and add routes toward the gateway interfaces for 
everything else.  Another way is to NAT the source address as it goes 
out the already-known interface.  That way the rest of the world does 
not need to know about your new private subnet.  As a packet goes out, 
the source address of the client will be replaced with the address of 
the forwarding interface and the host performing this will maintain a 
table of connections to do the reverse mapping as the reply packets come 
back.  If you tcpdump your eth0 interface now, you'll probably see 
packets being forwarded out but nothing coming back because the rest of 
the net/world doesn't know the route back.  When you add the SNAT, it 
will look like the host machine itself to the rest of the world.  The 
argument to -s is the range of original addresses to replace, -o is the 
outbound interface, and --to-source is the IP of the outbound interface 
on the host.

I just bought a Microsoft Wireless Optical Mouse 2000 last week and it "just

Yes, you need acpid running for the power switch to work. It does

not run during run level 1 by default. Run level 1 is normally
reserved for fixing problems on the system, as it outs it in the
single user mode, with root as the user. Only the minimum services
necessary are started.

What else does the ACPI service do?


I agreee with the above but this raises the question what would running

What else does ACPI do besides the power switch.

You've been on Fedora [or Red Hat Linux] related mailing-lists before, a
long time ago. It isn't news that you try to build a lot from tarballs
instead of using prebuilt/preconfigured rpms which are part of the
distribution. Asking questions is okay. Still you ought to show that
you're interested in trying to read the documentation that comes together
with the software you want to use. In this case "man sudo sudoers". These
manuals contain security related notes, which you really ought to read if
you want to give users sudo access.

What I mean with my comments on preferring absolute paths is that in the
wrapper-script /usr/bin/upasswd (the name you've chosen for it) you ought
to run "/usr/bin/passwd" at the bottom, not just "passwd". By running
"passwd" within PATH you rely on security features in sudo to prevent a
user from modifying $PATH and running an arbitrary program named "passwd"
with superuser privileges. That program could be anything, especially
since it is being passed with "$1" without any helpful safety-checks.
Even if you think that sudo does not make that possible (read about
SECURE_PATH and the env_* features I've mentioned), a change in the
configuration, in the defaults (or when using selfbuilt software) may open
the attack vector. Hence let the script run /usr/bin/passwd at the bottom,
which is exactly what you want.

good cordless mouse?

2008-11-19 Thread Dr. Michael J. Chudobiak
Can someone recommend a good, in-production, hassle-free cordless mouse 
with a middle-clickable scroll wheel?


I would rather not mess with xorg.conf, and I can't seem to get the 
Logitech MX Revolution to "just work" (i.e. middle click doesn't work).


My older MX Lasers work great, but they doesn't seem to be available any 
more.

Google Droid Fonts

2008-11-19 Thread David Hláčik
Hello guys,

i have created a rpm package of Google Droid Fonts for F10 . (Inspired by
specfile from liberation-font )

The Droid family of fonts consists of Droid Sans, Droid Sans Mono
   : and Droid Serif. Each contains extensive character set coverage
   : including Western Europe, Eastern/Central Europe, Baltic,
Cyrillic,
   : Greek and Turkish support. The Droid Sans regular font also
   : includes support for Simplified and Traditional Chinese,
Japanese
   : and Korean support for the GB2312, Big 5, JIS 0208 and KSC 5601
   : character sets respectively.

RPM is available here : http://david.hlacik.eu/fedora/boss/

I am using it as a default font for my Gnome Desktop.

My question is, what should i do , if i want this package to make an
official to Fedora?

Thanks!

D.

Thank you very much again for helping out.  



Your client subnet should be physically isolated from rest of the 
building's network.  That is, the host should have one interface on the 
main net and another connected to a separate switch where your dhcp 
clients connect.  You will break the rest of the main network if you 
connect your dhcp-serving interface there.

No, there is DNS, and they are the same as the host machine.  It might be

Thank you very much for your guidance :)
It is much closer than before.



You have to deal with routing and NAT somewhere.  You might avoid it if 
you run a nameserver and squid proxy on the host and configure the 
clients to use the proxy.  Otherwise you need the host to route the 
packets if you have a NAT gateway elsewhere, or to route and NAT if 
nothing but the host knows about this subnet.

Thks for the tip, but I had already done that. There's a chekcbox for
headphone, which is checked. I also tried playing with every track volume
level that seemed reasonable, but it did not work.

(if anyone can provide more info on any specific settings that would affect
headphone sound, that'd be great...)

I took a look, but thet fact is that I can't precise when it stopped
working, so the timeframe could be long... =(

Thks anyway for your help.

It depends on your sudo/sudoers configuration. You can read more about it

Just the following rules :
SYSADM  MH = (ALL)/usr/bin/passwd-wrapper

<>It's general advise not to open an attack vector via $PATH when

impose restrictions on what those special users may run. Today your sudo
configuration may not permit that, but you wouldn't be the first one to
switch from sudo to setuid or to alter your sudo config in harmful ways.


I think the system admin config the sudo only for some special user ( 
eg: system support term ) for the Server Maintance...

So, NOT many user he/she can running with sudo, right ?

Thanks !

Re: No Shutdown Service in Init 1

2008-11-19 Thread Steve West

Steve West wrote:

When I run my service in init 1 there is no shutdown response to the

Steve



Yes, you need acpid running for the power switch to work. It does
not run during run level 1 by default. Run level 1 is normally
reserved for fixing problems on the system, as it outs it in the
single user mode, with root as the user. Only the minimum services
necessary are started.

What else does the ACPI service do?

Re: IBM 19K5544 Intel Pro/100 Ethernet Adapter

2008-11-19 Thread kr0ni
I'm pretty sure that that card is a 64bit PCI card.  The card that I have is 
kinda triangular shaped, and the connector is divided into three parts.  One of 
them longer and the two equally small pieces, the second being the 64bit 
portion.  In a 32bit slot, not all of the card would fit into the slot.  The 
64bit portion of the connector would be hanging out past the slot.  This might 
explain why the card wouldn't be recognized when you check `lspci` and dmesg.

It's general advise not to open an attack vector via $PATH when trying to
impose restrictions on what those special users may run. Today your sudo
configuration may not permit that, but you wouldn't be the first one to
switch from sudo to setuid or to alter your sudo config in harmful ways.

Even if you rely on sudo's default environment variables restrictions and
safety checks, prefer absolute paths when executing tools like
/usr/bin/passwd
