This meant the community and/or Red Hat did not get the JSR-336 TCK yet.

I'd hate having to get Oracle proprietaty binaries just to satisfy bureucratic requirements. :-( And while we're talking about Java 7, I heard about serious problems preventing some open source packages like Lucene from running under Java 7 on production settings. Anyone on the list can vouch for Java 7 in full production, or can based on experience advise against that? I rememeber all first releases (.1, .3) of JDK were somewat problematic (bugs).

Gnome and Xfce don't play well together
This happened in F15 and I thought I was just ignorant. Now that it has happened again in F16 I realize it is a software problem. When Gnome is configured for a user and then the user tries to use Xfce they find that the Xfce is corrupted in various ways. Namely: 1. when Firefox is run the top menu choices can not be used. You click on Edit for example and you see the Edit menu, When you move the cursor down the menu and the menu disappears. 2. Gnome display image bleeds into Xfce. 3. Evolution after awhile has the same problem as Firefox. 4. Running the Software Update program causes the update window to be so large that you can't see the options like Install at the bottom of the window, 5. You can't set up multiple workspaces. etc., etc and so forth. In F15 the corruptions were slightly different. Foe example the menu you got when you clicked on the Desktop was the Gnome menu not the Xfce menu. Other strange things happened like you get a view of the home directory immediately when you log in to Xfce, It would be interesting to hear whether others have seen similar effects. -- === Conceit causes more conversation than wit. -- LaRouchefoucauld === Aaron Konstam telephone: (210) 656-0355 e-mail: akons...@sbcglobal.net -- 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 Have a question?

Re: Problem serving DHCP to Virtual Guests
On 11/28/2011 12:07 PM, Patrick Lists wrote: Hi, I have a workstation with Fedora 16 using NetworkManager getting a static IP address via DHCP from a central DHCP server. I have a couple of VMs on that workstation that use a routed network device in libvirt that I would also like to acquire their IP address from the central DHCP server. I set up the virtual routed network device virbr1 and configured a VM (with CentOS 6) to use it. When the VM starts I see in Wireshark the DHCP broadcasts on the virbr1 interface but those broadcasts are not seen on the p21p1 (the old eth0) interface on the workstation and definitely don't make it to the central DHCP server. I guess I may need some additional IPTables rules to forward the VMs DHCP requests to the central DHCP server? Does anyone know what IPTables rule(s) I should add to make this work? My understanding and experience is that you really want to bridge the virtual machines to get them on the real network. It can get very interesting when you add VLANs per virtual machine, or groups of virtual machines. NetworkManager can handle bridges ok, and I do so on my desktop, but on all of our VM servers we shut of/don't install NetworkManager and just use network. The principles are the same which ever you wish to use. # yum -y install bridge-utils This is a blip from our kickstart post-install for desktops and 'livecd' based VM servers: # set up a bridge on eht0 cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-br0 _EOF DEVICE=br0 ONBOOT=yes TYPE=Bridge BOOTPROTO=dhcp STP=off DELAY=0 NM_CONTROLLED=yes _EOF cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 _EOF DEVICE=eth0 ONBOOT=yes BRIDGE=br0 NM_CONTROLLED=yes _EOF This gives you the bridge, and all the virt tools will see it. You would use p21p1, of course, or force udev to give you the old names. Now that you have the bridge, you can specify it in the installs of your VMs. They can do dhcp on the same network the server does. This can be extended without much fuss to include VLANs as well. Here is a sample from a startup script for a livecd based VM server that requires a different VLAN for one of the two VMs he serves: modprobe 8021q vconfig add eth1 840 vconfig add eth1 60 ifconfig inet 0.0.0.0 eth1.60 cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-br1 _EOF DEVICE=br1 ONBOOT=yes TYPE=Bridge BOOTPROTO=none STP=off DELAY=0 _EOF cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1.60 _EOF DEVICE=eth1.60 ONBOOT=yes VLAN=yes BRIDGE=br1 _EOF cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1.840 _EOF DEVICE=eth1.840 ONBOOT=yes VLAN=yes IPADDR=10.150.0.102 NETMASK=255.255.252.0 _EOF ifup eth1.840 ifup eth1.60 ifup br1 It is my experience that when using tagged VLANs such as this, that the bridge cannot successfully do dhcp because the underlying VLAN does not come up until after the bridge in this case. Other than that one CAVEAT, this works well. Need a VM on VLAN 60? Just define his interface on bridge br1. No need to do any bridging or VLAN setup inside the VM. Bridges are the bomb. Use 'em.

Now when I run systems-analyze blame cups.service is not one of the
services that appears in the printout. However, systemd says the
cups.service is enabled.
If I restart the service things work again.
Where can I look to fix the problem?
What is the output of systemctl status cups.service after booting
but before restarting CUPS? Do you see any errors in syslog from CUPS
during boot?
-T.C.
After this boot cups worked on the client so I have little to report.
The output of: systemctl status cups.service
Is;
cups.service - CUPS Printing Service
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/cups.service; enabled)
Active: active (running) since Sat, 26 Nov 2011 22:51:07 -0600
Main PID: 687 (cupsd)
CGroup: name=systemd:/system/cups.service
└ 687 /usr/sbin/cupsd -f
But I got the same output when it did n work so I will stay confused
until I have a consistent story at which time I will ask again.
What is maddening is that right after I boot, printing works. After
awhile it stops working.
Running: systemctl |grep cups
returns:
cups.path loaded active running
cups.service loaded active running
cups.socket loaded active running
When I run: systemctl restart cups.service
printing works again.
So it is not the interference of the network starting that is causing
the problem. Do I need to file a Bugzilla?
Trying to use the advice from another poster I put the following line in
an executable file: /etc/rc.d/rc.local
{which is strange since there is no default instance of rc.local on a
F16 system}
/bin/bash -c 'sleep 10 ; systemctl restart cups.service' /dev/null
2$1 /dev/null
Same behavior as before. Printing works for awhile then stops. Its a
mystery.

Fact check: why are icedtea binaries named openjdk?
Hi there, I heard that iced tea binaries have to use the openjdk name on binaries (such as the Fedora packages) because of some agreement with Sun. Sun was to provide help running the TCK and integrading iced tea patches into openjdk, in return icedtea downstream would use the openjdk name. Is this correct? I could not find a reference on the subject. Or maybe it was a clause on the special tck license grant for open source projects based on openjdk. I guess there are people on the list who can tell what happened. :-) []s, Fernando Lozano -- 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 Have a question?

The MTP mounted tablet causes RhythmBox to crash when it tries to connect to the tablet as a music player. I have read some information about mtpfs. Does anyone know where this software can be found?

Re: Re: Tablet Acer Iconia W500, anyone?
Hi, Googling around I found with a little work I can run Fedora on that Tablet. Only wish it didn't came with Windows Pro, I could save a few bucks if it was Windows Home Basic. The Iconia tab is an x86 PC, more precisely an AMD Fusion based tablet. It will run any x86 OS you throw at it. That much I know, as I googled I already also know that device drivers can be found. But my question was if it was useable or if it'll feel cumbersome. I wish to hear (read) from someone who actually tried this.
