Re: Is Apache included with Fedora
Yes, but the important point is that he wouldn't have known the background to the rename, which was "The Apache project isn't just a web server".

There are two other possibilities: a jumper on the drive is "clipping" its capacity, and / or the presence of a "host protected area" effectively doing the same thing. Check for jumpers on the drive, see if the "libata.ignore_hpa=1" option is still supported by the current kernel. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list

If you're logged into gmail, for example, you have a cookie for Google.

Quite possibly, but we'd have to redesign the browser to not send the cookie, I suspect. Or there could be a non-google.com domain to download these lists from, which would sidestep the issue.

It probably doesn't, but if you're downloading from their domain via HTTP then the cookie will be sent, by the browser, without any intervention, because that's the way it works. > If I do not use any form of google service (mail, reader, etc.) then I > guess there isn't much info google can connect with cookies, but most > people (myself included) use many google services.

Sure, but most non-profit groups will have fewer resources for a start ... even the hosting bandwidth for the list would probably cripple most people. Think slashdot effect, but a hit for every user that has this enabled whenever they download the list, plus the hits to check the urls when they're encountered. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list

If possible, you want to *replace* the faad2 rpm (rather than remove it) with one that has the missing library, or find the package that provides it (I'm guessing this will be from atrpms).

Well, have you installed a package of codecs? Those aren't included in Fedora. If you had them before you must have installed them from somewhere, either as an rpm package or from a tarball.

Anyway the content is there for anyone. Just because you're pissed off it took a long time to solve doesn't make you right. I've read all that, and yes, the title is accurate; it's a bit more specific than "it doesn't work" which appears to be what you want. If bugzilla titles were required to be vague, we'd all have trouble finding things. And for developers, it helps to have an accurate statement of a problem.

While that may be true, it's not really polite to pollute the "web of trust" with "possibly dubious" signatures (I'm not for a moment suggesting or assuming that there's anything dubious in this case, but the principle is important).

I've seen something similar happen a couple of times, and I think in the end restarting may have fixed it. It's hard to reproduce though. Occasionally the new firefox windows seem to open on the same virtual desktop as an already open firefox window instead of the current desktop. I wasn't able to pinpoint exactly what caused it, but might have been a combination of a previously crashed firefox session being restored, plus flash applets being visible. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list

Yeah, I saw something similar a while back and "cured" it by rm -f /etc/xdg/autostart/* ... if the service isn't running that would explain the applet not showing up properly.
