Re: [389-users] sort on createTimestamp via JNDI
Hi, the server does support the server-side sorting. However if the server considers that the sorting task is too expensive it sends you an error. When you sort on a certain attribute be sure * to have an index on it with the corresponding matching rule (http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/dir-server/8.1/admin/index-sort-order.html) and * be sure that the number of sorted entries does not exceeed nsslapd-idlistscanlimit (http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/dir-server/8.1/admin/Managing_Indexes.html), otherwise the search will be considered unindexed and as a consequence too expensive Other than that the sorting works perfectly... 2010/1/29 Derek Alexander d.alexan...@lse.ac.uk: Hi, Was trying to do a search against the directory, with results sorted on the createTimestamp attribute using JNDI.

F12 nouveau problem?
Dear community, having a *little* problem with nouveau and NVIDIA FX5200 (princeton display, 1280x1024): Under F12, it works OK - but when rebooting to WinXP, the screen is not centered, but shifted a little bit to the left (a small black vertical bar remains rightside). After auto tuning the display in WinXP, and after rebooting to F12, there is the inverse effect (small black vertical bar on the left side). By running my screen with kmod-nvidia-173xx from rpmfusion, I get rid from these problems. Any hints?

Re: help, (Fedora 8 is no longer supported)
You can search for a active F8 repository (HTTP or FTP) on NET, and modify 'baseurl' on /etc/yum.conf, this is what I've done. I think that livna repository has the extra support for media formats. Maybe freshrpms too. But you will not find new updates, only the updates that you doesn't have applied until now. I have upgraded the machines to F11 and F12. Read the docs about the deprecated :( architectures on Fedora, like Geode family, between others. This is what generates possible problems with upgrade. Regards.

It depends on your definition of stable: If you define stable as everything works, then I'd say go for F12. F12 is one of the best releases we ever had, it was already rock solid when it was still the beta or release candidate. But when you define stable as feature complete, no API changes and only a few updates, then it's F11. There is still a lot of updates coming for F12 while F11 has calmed down.

Same symptoms. Full freeze but it doesn't take an intensive program. I can almost always lock it with burning a DVD and doing a disk access in the background.

This is what I find with the VLC and it starts using up memory and pushes the machine into a massive swap process. One time I got an error message like yours but my machine didn't die.

Re: Between F11 and F12, which would you choose?
The question remains: Do you just want to experiment and incur the problems that require expertise to fix, or do you want to use the os to drive applications which achieve results, if the latter then stick with Fedora 11. 12 is visually much nicer, and has some good improvements - but I think that's good advice. The FC12 virtualisation still crashes (in bugzilla getting debugged) and there are some other rough edges. -- 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/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
