Re: Problem mounting NTFS partitions in gnome automatically

2009-06-17 Thread Giuseppe Fuggiano
2009/6/17 Gijs i...@bsnw.nl:
 Hello List,

 I recently upgraded from F10 to F11 and after I did this, Gnome stopped
 mounting my NTFS partitions automatically. However, if I manually execute
 the gnome-mount command with the following command:
 gnome-mount -d /dev/sda1 -v -t
 it works perfectly for both my partitions.

 Now of course I can add the partitions to my fstab and have them mounted on
 boot, but this feature worked before and I'd like to have it work again.

 So does anyone have any idea (or perhaps the same problem) how to solve
 this?

Do you have haldaemon and messagebus services running?

 Yea, both are running just fine.

You can try:

mv ~/.gnome2 ~/.gnome2.old

and restart the GNOME session (logout and login).  This will reset
your desktop preferences to defaults.  You can also revert to the
previous one, if desidered:

rm -rf ~/.gnome2   (delete default configuration just created)
mv ~/.gnome2.old ~/.gnome2   (revert to the previous one)

I hope this workaround will work.

 Hi,

 I have Fedora 10 and installed the latest VirtualBox. In a virtual machine I
 have Suse Linux. It doesn't managed to get an ip address through dhcp.

 I know this a fedora list but maybe I could get some clues at how to
 diagnose network problem on Linux (does it even see VirtualBox DHCP?)

 Note: I've added the guest addition

How is your VM network configured?  Try selecting bridge and then
the ethernet interface the host is using.

If I understood your issue, you should not try to get an ip address
within the guest machine until the host one is configured well.  I
suggest you to configure the host machine using a command like this:

VBoxManage modifyvm Name of your Machine --bridgeadapter1 eth0

where eth0 is the host interface you are using.  You also can manage
the network configuration using the GUI shipped with the package.  Let
me point you to the official user manual instructions:

Re: F 10 Installation without Network Manager

2009-05-23 Thread Giuseppe Fuggiano
2009/5/23 Mike Dwiggins m...@azdwiggins.com:
 Has anyone found a way to install F 10 without installing Network Manager?

The installation program should permit to exclude it customizing the
package selection.

However, if you are not planning to use NetworkManager to administer
you network interfaces, you could either uninstall it or disable its
use.  To uninstall the network manager issue the 'yum remove
NetworkManager' command.  To disable, you can use 'chkconfig
NetworkManager off' and 'service NetworkManager stop'.

When planning to use the usual /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ scripts
to configure the network, I usually opt for the second solution.

Netcat on Fedora is a different Netcat

2009-01-09 Thread Giuseppe Fuggiano
Hi list.

I recently installed Fedora and today I got a little time after work
to configure it on my laptop.  The first thing I did was configure the
network to access to the internet and to my LAN at home.  To test the
connection I used netcat to listen to a dummy port, as I usually do.
The thing I discovered is that nc on Fedora has a different manpage, a
different binary and almost different syntax.

Why?!

On every other distribution nc is the same and has the same syntax.
Why does Fedora used a different version, maybe patched or totally
different application... with the same name?

How can I be totally sure that netcat is the only command with a
different syntax?  Should I learn other syntaxes for each command,
again?  :O

I'd like to have the original software in my Linux distribution, and
as closed as possible to other distros (which probably use the
original).

Maybe this netcat is another version of the original, also shipped by
its author which I've never seen before...

Thanks for explanations.

2009/1/9 Jeff Spaleta jspal...@gmail.com:
 Fedora's package uses the nc codebase from openBSD.
 rpm -qi nc

 We package things with the upstream project url encoded in the header
 information so you know exactly where the sourcecode base is coming
 from in our packages.  Do the other distributions you use do they
 same? Do you know where the upstream source distribution of their
 netcat package is?

Yes, probably from the old netcat.

 Is there another actively maintained netcat upstream project codebase
 that you were expecting to find?  My understanding is that that the
 netcat 1.10 version that some other distros ship..is a dead upstream
 project.  If I'm mistaken, please let me know where it is.

I don't know exactly.  But probably the choice of take that upstream
project codebase makes some sense...

 The switch to OpenBSD's actively maintained netcat codebase was made
 in March 2005.

Does that netcat version is shipped under BSD license, or still GNU/GPL?

 First why do you assume it was GPL before? Can you emphatically state
 that the license on the version you are expecting was in fact the GPL?
 I can not find reference to the GPL in packaging of other
 distributions that I have just checked. OpenSuse and Debian ship a
 netcat which is effectively public domain, according to the copyright
 notices I have found.

From the sources... check the COPYING file.
http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/download.sourceforge.net/pub/sourceforge/n/ne/netcat/netcat-0.7.1.tar.gz

I was talking about the 0.7.1 version shipped by my previous
distribution, which in fact is not updated since 2004.

 Second, since the Fedora package points you to the upstream source you
 have the ability to check the license for yourself quite easily.  I
 don't think its GPL by looking at the  c files in the openbsd cvs
 system.   I should file a bug about that against the nc package to get
 its license tag changed accordingly.

http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/usr.bin/nc/

It seems to be a BSD license.  I choosen Linux for the GPL license and
I usually avoid the non-GPL software (Free Software) when adviced of
that, of course.

So, let's install *BSD.

Re: Is this problem solvable?

 Before leaving home on a visit to Italy (where I am now)
Welcome to Italy ;)

 I noticed that shorewall did not print out its usual messages,
Which messages?

 but foolishly did not check what caused this.
 Now I can ping the machine,
If you can ping the machine so I guess it's up and running.

 but cannot ssh into it (I chose a strange port)
 or access its web-server.
If you got that port reachable from the internet, but you don't
remember the ssh port number you used, you could scan your IP to
discover it using, for example, nmap.

 My question is: given that I can ping the machine,
 is there any way I can re-boot it remotely,
 or even just re-start shorewall?
No, using ping only :-)

Cheers

Re: Which part of Kernel contains /Documnetation/DocBook?

2009-01-07 Thread Giuseppe Fuggiano
2009/1/7 hutx h...@yahoo.com:
 Can I use make menuconfig to install or compile
 compile to get this dir?

No.  the make menuconfig command is useful to _configure_ your
kernel *before* compiling.  Configuring a kernel means that you
specify which functionalities your kernel should include.

For more detailed information, read the README file you can find in
the Linux tarball or at this URL:

Bye.

Auditing subdirectories recursively using auditd

2009-01-07 Thread Giuseppe Fuggiano
Hi list.

I found that auditd daemon is very useful to audit my linux
installation.  But, given a directory, I'd like to audit also its
subdirectories and files, recursively.  Also, if a user create or
modify something there, the audit watches should change properly.

Is it possible?  I cannot figure out the rules to add in
/etc/audit.rules to do that.  I hope in someone who experienced this
issue.

Thanks a lot,

System freeze with ATI

2009-01-06 Thread Giuseppe Fuggiano
Hi all.  I installed Fedora 10 on my Asus A7D laptop, which have an
ATI Radeon Mobility x700 video card.  Fedora automagically detected it
and used the open source drivers.  All worked fine, except the fact
that the system totally crash in these situations:

  1) Randomly;
  2) If I enable Desktop Effects.

Is there a way to workaround this bad issue?  Before trying to install
the proprietary drivers I'd like to hear some opinions.

Thank you.

Re: System freeze with ATI

2009/1/6 Bill Davidsen david...@tmr.com:
 I have been running since the pre-beta and haven't had an issue yet, on my
 Acer Extensa using ATI drivers, so you can assume it's not some general
 defect hitting all ATI laptops. I doubt it promises more than that, however

Thanks for replying.

If I use Ubuntu with open source drivers, the same issue occurs.  But
switching to the proprietary drivers everything works fine, with no
freeze.  I am unsure to try fglrx in Fedora right now, because I've
heard that fglrx isn't supported with the current Xorg.

What video card do you have, exactly?
