Mock and Gnome-Schedule F15 srpm
Hi, I'm not a packager, currently have no webspace (between hosts) Have rebuild gnome-schedule for myself using upstream: gnome-schedule-2.1.3.tar.gz and a modified spec from the last released F15 srpm version: gnome-schedule-2.0.2-6.fc15.src.rpm How do I use mock to create multiple version at the one time F15\Rawhide? The single rebuild I did for F15 64bit installs\works fine. removed require for gnome-python2-applet. Just pulls in gnome-python2-gconf currently. -- Regards, Frank Murphy UTF_8 Encoded Friend of Fedora -- 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/Mailing_list_guidelines
Gnome shell and NVidia binary drivers
I'm running F15 on Dell Latitude D620 Laptop with NVidia NVS 110M video card. So far I used it with nouveau drivers and while it ran fairly well, I experienced sometimes glitches - screen becoming white or otherwise unreadable. So, I tried to install NVidia drivers from RPMFusion. After log in, gnome shell draws its top bar, but after that it simply stops drawing anything on screen. If I launch terminal, I can see that mouse pointer changes when it goes in and out of terminal window, but window itself can not be seen. After sometime it displays sad terminal icon with a message Oh no! Something has gone wrong. A problem has occurred and the system can't recover. Please log out and try again. Are NVidia drivers supported by Gnome 3? Should I file bug for this? And if yes - to RedHat bugzilla or to Gnome? -- 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/Mailing_list_guidelines

GNOME shell runs just fine on my system. I normally run KDE and I will have to say the nVidia drivers do perform better than nouveau. The shading is better as well as the desktop effects and transitions. But, nouveau is getting better every release. Whatever you do, don't file a bugzilla about nVidia drivers on Redhat/Fedora.

Juniper network connect f15 x86_64

Please note, I'm not asking for the obvious answer don't do this and I'm also not asking for the counter question why do you need this? [...] So the long answer is you either have to modify tmpfiles.c to deal with this or write a similar daemon to do it. I guess this should be converted into a bugzilla entry then. That's not always possible and you can't ask all users to rename their files. Filenames like Expenses May 2011.odt are just to be expected. Another example is the default naming of CF or SD media formatted on certain camera models. Yet another exmaple are customer request. So far as I understand from the manpage, tmpfiles.d is not so much for cleaning the tmp directory on a regular basis as for creating and managing temporary files and directories on volatile filesystems. I'm That's what I'm looking for. With F15 the underlying mount point changed from a real filesystem into a tmpfs so I want to utilize tmpfiles.d to create a directory which is expected by some other component. This directory has spaces in its name. not sure there's really a compelling argument for having this as a request for feature, except if you must have spaces in the temporary directory name for some reason. Being able to use anything you can put in fstab (consistency argument) is probably the only one that flies. I don't think so. The problem is that certain paths in F15 are suddenly tmpfs paths by default. This potentially clashes with a couple of tools and applications expecting some paths to exist, therefore the tmpfiles.d mechanism has been invented. Unfortunately it doesn't allow to specify *valid* filename characters which might be expected in a filename by a software component not known to the developers. There is, of course, a workaround by creating the missing directory in some startup script. However, IIUC tmpfiles.d is supposed to be a generic method to create such volatile paths, so it's a pity it doesn't work with some valid pathnames. From my point of view that's a bug. If you have customers that run unix, care exactly what temporary system locations you use and insist there are spaces in the names then you have very weird customers. I didn't say anything about my customers. This was merely an example, just like the other ones in my mail. Here's another one: A piece of proprietary software expecting a certain path with spaces in it to run. Again, just an example.

Re: vnc and gnome3
I upgraded a Fedora 14 machine that had vncserver running on it, and it works most of the time. In my it is started by the vncserver service that uses the /etc/sysconfig/vncserver to start it up. On the machine, you could try manually starting it. vncserver :10 vncviewer 127.0.0.1:10 I have had one issue, where the pid files are still existing after a power outage on the machine, and have to manually remove them and restart. As a side note. Doesn't vino only work with the :0 display.

How to choose network path with two internet connection
Hello, Suppose I have a laptop that has both Wired and Wireless connection. The Wired connection would be connected to LAN only. The Wireless connection would have full internet access. Obviously the two connections will have two different IP: a local IP address (e.g. 192.168.x.x) for the Wired, and a public IP address for the Wireless. How does an application know which network path to use ? For example, I want to be able to run SSH or Synergy to other machine on the LAN, so SSH would have to use the LAN network. But I also want to be able to run mail client that is connected to an IMAP server in the outside world, so my mail client have to use the Wireless network. How does something like this work ? Thanks.

Given what you described, and how Fedora admin's tool work, it'll work automatically, as long as you set up your network interfaces correctly. When you set up your LAN interface, the admin tools should set up a route for your LAN IP address range for that interface. Ditto for your wireless connection, which will have a route for your wireless LAN, and a default route to the wireless AP's IP address. Connections to your LAN IP address ranges will take the LAN route. Connections to all other IP address will go to the default route. If you enable IP forwarding and masquerading, your machines on the LAN will also have Internet connectivity, if they are set to use your laptop's LAN IP address as their router. pgpkkdFLCDUAl.pgp Description: PGP signature -- 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/Mailing_list_guidelines

Fedora 15 boot delays -
I was seeing some very slow boot times, probably self inflicted, until I re-installed F-15 after which it worked quite nicely. Until I disabled network manager and set up a non-dhcp network with system-config-network. Then I could connect to the internet by clicking on Activate and the browser and e-mail functions worked but there was no connection to the LAN. Ethtool reported there was no device. I then did: cp /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-p2p1 /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1 and rebooted and eth1 came back on and I had access to my NFS, etc. However the boot routine now stops at Start LSB: The cups scheduler and sm-client, 60 seconds at each one which makes for a long boot time. Normally that's only done once a day so it's mostly an annoyance but I would like to fix it so it works right. That or I guess there's really no reason I can't live with network manager. It's just that I don't need it, these computers are all desk top computers firmly rooted to my desks and tethered to the 60 cycle main. I guess what I'm looking for is advice, should I just turn up network manager again or keep hoping that a solution comes along?

Re: Preupgrade fc14 to fc15 failed, kernel is not installed
On 06/02/2011 10:13 AM, GeeKer Wang wrote: Hello, guys, I used preupgrade to upgrade fc14 to fc15, and everything seemed fine. But when I reboot, I just find that kernel-fc15 is not installed. I can't tell from what you written above, but, pre-upgrade is a multi step process. Here are the steps in a nut-shell: 1) run preupgrade and have it download packages to a local repository on your machine. It should also modify your /etc/grub.conf file to add an entry which will continue the upgrade in step 2. When this step completes, it should ask you to reboot your computer. 2) when you reboot, it should automatically select the F15 upgrade entry and boot into the second stage installer and start installing the downloaded packages on to your system. This is the step that fails for many people. Places to look for problems are in /etc/grub.conf and in /boot/upgrade/. In the latter you should have at least 3 files: initrd.img, ks.cfg, and vmlinuz. If not, something else has gone wrong for you to look into. If everything goes right, when the packages are finished installing (and yet another change is made to your /etc/grub.conf file), the system will reboot yet again 3) The final reboot will run a script called firstboot which should clean up from the upgrade process, and remove the old kernel versions from your system. It will also check to make sure that any new packages are configured properly (or prompt you for their configuration) so that F15 will run correctly for you upon subsequent reboots. If you get this far, preupgrade has done its job correctly and you should be all set. There are no vmlinuz-xxx.fc15.i686 and initramfs--fc15.i686.img in /boot, no entry about fc-15 written in grub.conf, and nothing related to fc15 is found in /lib/modules. I just try to download kernel and install it manually. But I don't know whether there are any other packages forgotten. What does rpm -qa | grep fc15 tell you? (there should be *lots* of hits). If it can't find any fc15 packages installed, you haven't upgraded yet. -- Bob -- Kevin J.

Re: How to choose network path with two internet connection
On 06/02/2011 10:51 AM, Armelius Cameron wrote: Hello, Suppose I have a laptop that has both Wired and Wireless connection. The Wired connection would be connected to LAN only. The Wireless connection would have full internet access. Obviously the two connections will have two different IP: a local IP address (e.g. 192.168.x.x) for the Wired, and a public IP address for the Wireless. I hope you are saying that only one of these connections is ever connected at one time How does an application know which network path to use ? The network default route gets set when the network connection gets established. If both networks are active at the same time, you *might* have a conflict with which default path to use. But, if only one is active, there should be no conflict. I've always thought that the higher bandwidth connection should take precedence, but there is nothing in the configuration scripts to ensure that. NetworkManager used to (I'm not sure if it still does) drop a wireless connection if it sees that a wired connection is now made. But, it the wired connection is not your Internet connection (and your wireless connection is) then that would be the wrong thing to do. For example, I want to be able to run SSH or Synergy to other machine on the LAN, so SSH would have to use the LAN network. But I also want to be able to run mail client that is connected to an IMAP server in the outside world, so my mail client have to use the Wireless network. How does something like this work ? If your LAN is a local LAN only, and not a default connection to the Internet, then you would have to ensure that connecting to your LAN does not set up a default route over the LAN when trying to get to some other network, especially if your wireless connection already does that. In that case, the configuration of your LAN network should only add routes to your LAN and not a default route to the rest of the Internet. Thanks. AC I hope this has been helpful. -- Kevin J.

OK, so while looking at the live system chrooted to your system, what is the response to: rpm -q kernel Let's find out if the proper kernel got installed.

And then we'll try and figure out how to install it by running grubby by hand I just found a empty upgrade directory in /boot, and nothing related to fc15 there. I guess preupgrade must forget to install kernel. Not likely, though its possible in some bizarre set of circumstances. Are you 100% sure that preupgrade didn't stop prematurely with some sort of error message? So what I should do to rescue it is to upgrade/install kernel in chroot environment. But I don't know how to upgrade kernel with a kernel RPM file. Any advice? Let's find out if it got installed first. If it did, and it didn't install an entry in the grub menu, then it was a script-let of the kernel RPM which errored. If it did not get installed, it should be easy enough to install one by hand (with RPM) and see if it installs without any errors (and correctly modifies your /etc/grub.conf file). If it requires dependencies to install, then you will have other problems. What I've ended up doing in circumstances like these is to plow ahead and continue the upgrade in pieces, by hand after ensuring that: 0) I have read the Fedora release notes for the version I am installing, looking for gotcha's that I may have tripped over! 1) I have a proper kernel installed and working (bootable), and the fedora-release RPM is the proper version and architecture. 2) yum and rpm (and all of their dependants) are up-to-date. 3) my network is up and running so I can do (yum) updates over the network. 4) essentially finish the upgrade by updating all of the remaining out-of-date RPMs on the system. Yes, you could try and continue from that point with yum -y update, but you would most likely need to do it in pieces (to get around all of the broken packages) and also use the --skip-broken option to yum. I like to try it alphabetically (ie yum -y update a*), but usually end up breaking down each leading letter looking for packages that update nicely, and then figure out what's wrong with the packages that don't. This is not a quick and easy process. I've sometimes spent weeks cleaning up my server or my laptop from a failed upgrade in this fashion, but, in the end, my system has been upgraded, and not re-installed (for some reason, an updated system seems to me to be less likely to have some necessary local configuration lost than an installed update, but, I could be wrong). In the end, I learn a *lot* about Fedora, how it works (and how it sometimes doesn't work B^), and how to fix it. What doesn't work in this process is if some new set of packages obsoletes an installed set of packages, this method may not properly install the new set of packages. That's ultimately because Anaconda failed during preupgrade, but didn't leave a sufficient amount of information to properly fix the upgrade. If you are not able to install/boot a proper f15 kernel, let us know, there are ways (even more nefarious that a yum upgrade) to update your system piecemeal, even from an f14 kernel On Thu, Jun 2, 2011 at 4:41 PM, Kevin J.

Re: Preupgrade fc14 to fc15 failed, kernel is not installed

After login in my system by chroot in livecd, by checking rpm -qa |grep fc15 , I am sure that many fc15 packages have installed. And all the 3 steps you mentioned have passed, which takes a couple of hours. So at least most fc15 packages have installed. OK, so while looking at the live system chrooted to your system, what is the response to: rpm -q kernel Let's find out if the proper kernel got installed. If so, then we'll have a look at your /etc/grub.conf (which is just a symlink to: /boot/grub/grub.conf). And then we'll try and figure out how to install it by running grubby by hand There is no fc15 kernel, only kernel-2.6.35.12-88.fc14.i686 kernel-2.6.35.12-90.fc14.i686 kernel-2.6.35.13-91.fc14.i686 I just found a empty upgrade directory in /boot, and nothing related to fc15 there. I guess preupgrade must forget to install kernel. Not likely, though its possible in some bizarre set of circumstances. Are you 100% sure that preupgrade didn't stop prematurely with some sort of error message? It halted halfway because of installing openjpeg-devel. I renamed related files and preupgrade continued without other problem. So what I should do to rescue it is to upgrade/install kernel in chroot environment. But I don't know how to upgrade kernel with a kernel RPM file. Any advice? Let's find out if it got installed first. If it did, and it didn't install an entry in the grub menu, then it was a script-let of the kernel RPM which errored. If it did not get installed, it should be easy enough to install one by hand (with RPM) and see if it installs without any errors (and correctly modifies your /etc/grub.conf file). If it requires dependencies to install, then you will have other problems. When I tried rpm -ivh kernel-2.6.38.6-fc15.i686.rpm, it failed with grubby fatal error: unable to find a suitable template. But it created some files(eg. vmlinuz-xxx-fc15, initramfs-xxx.img) in /boot and /lib/modules. However, grub-install didn't recognize these files. What I've ended up doing in circumstances like these is to plow ahead and continue the upgrade in pieces, by hand after ensuring that: 0) I have read the Fedora release notes for the version I am installing, looking for gotcha's that I may have tripped over! 1) I have a proper kernel installed and working (bootable), and the fedora-release RPM is the proper version and architecture. 2) yum and rpm (and all of their dependants) are up-to-date. 3) my network is up and running so I can do (yum) updates over the network. 4) essentially finish the upgrade by updating all of the remaining out-of-date RPMs on the system. Yes, you could try and continue from that point with yum -y update, but you would most likely need to do it in pieces (to get around all of the broken packages) and also use the --skip-broken option to yum. I like to try it alphabetically (ie yum -y update a*), but usually end up breaking down each leading letter looking for packages that update nicely, and then figure out what's wrong with the packages that don't. This is not a quick and easy process. I've sometimes spent weeks cleaning up my server or my laptop from a failed upgrade in this fashion, but, in the end, my system has been upgraded, and not re-installed (for some reason, an updated system seems to me to be less likely to have some necessary local configuration lost than an installed update, but, I could be wrong). In the end, I learn a *lot* about Fedora, how it works (and how it sometimes doesn't work B^), and how to fix it. What doesn't work in this process is if some new set of packages obsoletes an installed set of packages, this method may not properly install the new set of packages. That's ultimately because Anaconda failed during preupgrade, but didn't leave a sufficient amount of information to properly fix the upgrade. If you are not able to install/boot a proper f15 kernel, let us know, there are ways (even more nefarious that a yum upgrade) to update your system piecemeal, even from an f14 kernel On Thu, Jun 2, 2011 at 4:41 PM, Kevin J.
