Re: Blocking auto-update of Kernel
2009/12/30 James Allsopp jamesaalls...@googlemail.com Hi, Is there an option to stop the F12 auto-update system updating my kernel. I want to avoid a situation where my kernel gets updated but there isn't a matching Madwifi rpm in the repositories? Best regards James -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines Hi, by default yum keeps the last 3 kernels installed. But you can set yum to keep all the updated kernels (see the installonly_limit key in /etc/yum.conf). Anyway I don't know any third-party repository that still provides madwifi drivers, since Atheros chipsets are supported by the vanilla kernel for a moment. Why do you still need madwifi? Which repo providing madwifi for F12 have you? -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines

Re: No IRC support in Fedora 12?!?
2009/10/10 Valent Turkovic valent.turko...@gmail.com Hi, current rawhide and Empathy client show great promise as it adds audio and video conference options. But one thing that Fedora users are used to have, IRC chat, seams like it is not supported and not working in current version of Empathy. Are Fedora developers aware of that?

Re: how to get 32-bit libz.so.1 support on 64-bit fedora?
Hi, you just have to install the i586 zlib package : yum install zlib.i586 2009/8/19 Robert P. J. Day rpj...@crashcourse.ca i just installed a sizable number of pre-built 32-bit executables on my 64-bit f11 system, a very small number of which are looking for the (32-bit) shared lib libz.so.1 and which will therefore fail to run. since my system is 64-bit, i have no libz shared lib under either /lib or /usr/lib, but i will of course have the 64-bit version installed under /lib64. what's the proper solution to get around this? yum installing the 32-bit compatibility libs? then libz? thanks. rday -- Robert P.

Re: Rebuilding Kmod-wl
Why not install the akmod-wl available on RPM Fusion ? In your case, it is perfect, since you have a custom kernel; the module will be rebuilt the next time you'll reboot on your vanilla kernel. Simple and easy :) 2009/6/23 homb...@tips-q.com I have been experimenting with 2.6.30 vanilla. I am trying to recompile the kmod-wl rpm for the 2.6.30 kernel. I cannot find where, in the spec file, to specify the kernel. It builds for the installed kernel rpm. Do I need to create a 2.6.30 RPM or is there some way to edit the spec into submission?

Re: where to place KDE startup commands
Maybe you can use the KDE session manager to launch it automatically at the session start : there is such an option in systemsettings. Or put a link to /usr/bin/vmware-use in ~/.kde4/share/autostart/, it's the same thing. 2009/2/11 Kevin Kempter ke...@kevinkempterllc.com Hi all; I'm running Fedora 10 inside of vmware workstation as a guest. In order to get the screen resize, copy/paste, etc I need to run '/usr/bin/vmware-user' sometime after KDE is launched. I tried placing this command in the following locations with no luck: ~/.xsession ~/.xinitrc /etc/rc.local /usr/bin/kdeinit /root/.xsession /root/.xinitrc If I place it in my local .bashrc then it works but only after I launch a konsole terminal.
