Yes, Sir. Thank you for your quick reply. I have the model right.

I downloaded the latest driver from here:

http://www.canon-europe.com/Support/Consumer_Products/products/printers/Laser/i-SENSYS_LBP2900.aspx?type=downloadpage=1

And I followed these guides:

- http://www.unixmen.com/installation-canon-lbp2900-on-linux-2/
- http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2076037
- http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?p=1584980

And many other links but got no luck.

Any more ideas?

Sorry, no.  As far as not finding it, it's quite possible that your 
printer isn't sold in the USA, so the US website (which is where I 
checked) didn't carry it.

I'm mostly hearing good things at this point. A few people are
reporting that the final reboot at the end sometimes hangs[1], but
manually rebooting the system ends up in a workable state, so it's
survivable.

lost cursor.

2013-07-02 Thread William Mattison
(Fedora-18; 64-bit; all desktops)

I have two 27-inch monitors on my system.  Occasionally, I lose the cursor.  
(ok, who's that that I hear snickering out there?!)  I recall years ago (two 
jobs ago) on the Unix system at work, we had a tool called xeyes which 
amounted to a pair of eyes which were always displayed on the monitor and 
always followed the cursor.  It was great.  Just what I need now!  But when I 
launch the Software tool on my system and look for xeyes, it doesn't find it. 
 How do I get xeyes for my 64-bit Fedora-18 system?

Bill:

Not sure about xeyes, but in the mouse control panel, there is an
option to flash the cursor (big concentric circles) when the ctrl key
is pressed.  This may help if you can't find what you're looking for.

Announcing the release of Fedora 19!

2013-07-02 Thread Mike Chambers

Subject: Announcing the release of Fedora 19!
Date: Tue, 2 Jul 2013 10:01:29 -0400 (EDT)

The Fedora Project is delighted to announce the release of Fedora 19 
(Schrödinger's Cat). Open the box and take a look for yourself!

Fedora is a leading-edge, free and open source operating system that continues 
to deliver innovative features to many users, with a new release about every 
six months.

Download it now:

http://fedoraproject.org/get-fedora

Detailed information about this release can be seen in the release notes:
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/19/html/Release_Notes/

** What's New in Fedora 19? **

The Fedora Project takes great pride in being able to show off features for all 
types of use cases, including traditional desktop users, systems 
administration, development, the cloud, and many more. But a few new features 
are guaranteed to be seen by nearly anyone installing Fedora and are 
improvements that deserve to be called out on their own.

A complete list with details of each new feature is available here:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/19/FeatureList

== Make new things ==

Would you like to play? Whether you're a developer, maker, or just starting to 
learn about open source development, we have what you need to bring your ideas 
to reality. Here's a peek at some of our new tools:

* Developer's Assistant is a tool for new developers that helps you to get 
started on a code project by offering templates, samples, and toolchains for a 
variety of languages. And when you're finished, you can publish directly to 
GitHub! 

* 3D modelling and printing are supported with OpenSCAD, Skeinforge, SFACT, 
Printrun, RepetierHost, and other tool options. Get printing without having to 
download binary blobs or run Python code from git. 

* OpenShift Origin makes it easy for you to build your own 
Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) infrastructure, allowing you to enable others to 
easily develop and deploy software.

* node.js is a popular Javascript-based platform for those building scalable 
network applications or real-time apps across distributed devices. 

* Ruby 2.0.0 moves into Fedora but keeps source-level backwards compatibility 
with your Ruby 1.9.3 software. We're also giving you a custom Ruby loader to 
use to easily switch interpreters.

* MariaDB offers a truly open MySQL implementation and is now the default MySQL 
option in Fedora.

== Deploy, Monitor, and Manage ==
You don't have to work so hard when your machines are doing it for you. 
Regardless of how many you have, Fedora 19 helps you boot-manage your systems 
and gives you the tools you need for diagnosis, monitoring, and logging.

* systemd Resource Control is one of many systemd enhancements in this release. 
It lets you modify your service settings without a reboot by dynamically 
querying and modifying resource control parameters at runtime. 

* Kerberos administrators no longer need their clients to sync their clocks or 
to have reverse DNS records carefully setup for services. Fedora 19 also 
includes Kerberos-enabled, LDAP replicated, two-factor authentication for 
FreeIPA. 

* Checkpoint  Restore lets you checkpoint and restore a process. It is useful 
for issues like process failure or moving a process to another machine for 
maintenance or load balancing. 

* OpenLMI is a common infrastructure for the management of Linux systems that 
makes remote management of machines much simpler. 

== Desktop Environments and Spins ==

GNOME 3.8 brings new applications such as clock and improvements to the desktop 
including privacy and sharing settings, ordered search, frequent applications 
overview, and additionally provides the ability to enable GNOME Classic 
(classic mode) for a user experience similar to GNOME 2 built out of a 
collection of GNOME Shell extensions.  Refer to 
https://help.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/3.8/ for more details. 

KDE Plasma Workspaces 4.10: A modern, stable desktop environment, KDE Plasma 
Workspaces 4.10 includes new features for printing and screenlocking, better 
indexing of files, and improved accessibility features.  Refer to 
http://www.kde.org/announcements/4.10/ for more details. 

MATE Desktop 1.6 introduces a large number of improvements to this traditional, 
GNOME 2-like desktop interface. Refer to 
http://mate-desktop.org/2013/04/02/mate-1-6-released/ for more details.

== Spins ==
Spins are alternate versions of Fedora.  In addition to various desktop 
environments for Fedora, spins are also available as tailored environments for 
various types of users via hand-picked application sets or customizations. 

Interest-specific Spins include the Design Suite Spin, the Robotics Spin, and 
the Security Spin, among

 worked for my systems. I did a fedup --network 19 -v and a few
 hours later, all's good.  Dell laptops all of them.

Didn't work for me.  fedup downloaded all packages and added the
upgrade entry to grub, but after the reboot, the upgrading failed
before any package was updated, and the system got rebooted.  No entry
in the logs which would have helped or which would have allowed to
collect information for a bug report.  I tried twice with the same
result.  Eventually `yum distro-sync' did the job.

Worked for me on two different vintage Dells (one a four-year-old XPS

 Is it possible to see files on a Blackberry 10 via usb?

 Hi Richard,
 yes, it is.

 I plugged the
 unit in, it made the connecting sound, and it creates a file /dev/sg2.
 Yet I don't get a device in nautilus?

 And it just works for me, when I set access to SD card over USB (Settings,
 Storage and Access, Media Card Details and USB mass storage turned on).
 Both Dolphin and Nautilus. The card was formatted in the device itself.

 Portion of dmesg: http://www.fpaste.org/22057/13726679/

 I want to add some files to the sd card, and if I plug it into the
 sd-card slot it is, and had forever been, unwritable, regardless of
 whether the permissions give me write capabilities.

 And it's writeable. I don't know where the problem could lie, check
 settings for mass storage, compare my dmesg...

 I don't know if it is or isn't.  However, as the only known difference
 between the two machines is the fact that the one with the problem is using
 Gnome in fallback mode, it's reasonable to think that this might be related.


Antonio: a shot in the dark: what does lsmod say on the unit that
can't get up? What are the hardware readouts for the two computers?
Perhaps it's a missing driver. What does ifconfig / iwconfig cay when
both connected and when not? You could also try modprobe on the file
that connects the wifi card to the modem.

Yes, but:

$ rpm -qf /etc/issue
fedora-release-19-2.noarch

So the content gives quite a good clue :)

One could also chose Settings from the upper right menu in Gnome 
(whatever that one is called), and chose Details. On my computer it 
says Fedora 19.

Open a terminal and run uname -r.  Does it tell you you're running a 
kernel for F18 or F19?

I'm mostly hearing good things at this point. A few people are
reporting that the final reboot at the end sometimes hangs[1], but
manually rebooting the system ends up in a workable state, so it's
survivable.

no, my system (quite old system, a Pentium 4 about 8 yo) cannot work 
after fedup


I hope that we can debug otherwise I have to try a fesh installation...

First of all Gnome 3 works (I was running F18 in fallback mode)
when I  enter an user name and password nothing happens, I get a blank 
screen with fedora logo on the bottom and I have to issue a Ctrl+alt+f2 
to enter as root or any other user, in text mode then with startx I am 
in graphics...
If I start for example yumes as user I am requested the password, but I 
get authentication error!!!

Systm is fully updated

Just finished the upgrade.  Some of my XFCE settings aren't quite right,
but the changes aren't anything I can't live with... or care about
enough to change right away.

There doesn't seem to be an F19 Virtualbox repo yet, but the F18 version
is running OK.

F19: after upgrading I cant't login from gdm

2013-07-02 Thread antonio montagnani
After fedup'ing I have a fully updated system but surprise I cannot 
login, after the password insertion of any user I get a blank screen 
with the fedora log on the bottom, and nothing happens.


If I start from a console startx, it works fine.
Furthermore if the screen saver starts, if a password is required i get 
an authentication failure, same for any application asking for root 
password (i.e.yumex)


Running nouveau on a old FX5200 video card (but now Gnome 3 at least 
works, in F18 I was an fallback mode)

Hope you reported the bug to Google as it is a Chrome bug and and a Fedora

  worked for my systems. I did a fedup --network 19 -v and a few
  hours later, all's good.  Dell laptops all of them.

 Didn't work for me.  fedup downloaded all packages and added the
 upgrade entry to grub, but after the reboot, the upgrading failed
 before any package was updated, and the system got rebooted.  No entry
 in the logs which would have helped or which would have allowed to
 collect information for a bug report.  I tried twice with the same
 result.  Eventually `yum distro-sync' did the job.

Fedora 19 crashes on VirtualBox when 3D accel is turned on

2013-07-02 Thread Hugh Caley

I know about this bug:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=972095

but my problem seems a little different; I'm using VirtualBox on the 
Mac, and just turning off 3D acceleration prevents the crash.

TIA!

Sometimes there's nothing left to do but crash and burn...or die trying.

Ok,

Regards,

Sorry, no.  As far as not finding it, it's quite possible that your 
printer isn't sold in the USA, so the US website (which is where I 
checked) didn't carry it.

I presume that you've already tried getting assistance from Canon.  Have 
you tried using the CUPS web interface at http://127.0.0.1:631/ and 
installing/configuring it there?

F19 live hangs

2013-07-02 Thread walksalot
Booting the 64-bit F19 live DVD on my system results in many minutes of a
rattling optical drive, and then a uniform grey screen with a row of about
16 PC block graphics characters in the upper left.  The system is, umm,
utterly non-responsive at this point.  Have to power cycle.

My system is a fairly normal Core 2 Duo.  It's getting a bit old, but runs
F17 and F18 fine.  I survived the F18 new installer debacle OK, but this is
a bit rough.  Anybody seen this?

That model isn't listed as being available.

What I would do is

1.  Download this from canon...
 
http://www.canon-europe.com/Support/Consumer_Products/products/printers/Laser/i-SENSYS_LBP2900.aspx?DLtcmuri=tcm:13-1060371page=1type=download

2.  Un-tar the download

3.  Then go to where you un-tared /Linux_CAPT_PrinterDriver_V256_uk_EN/Doc

4.  Un-tar guide-capt-2.56UK.tar.gz and then point your browser to 
file://./guide-capt-2.56UK/index

They seem to have put a fair amount of effort into documentation.

Please note that the instructions are prior to the introduction of systemd.  
So, you'll need to adjust for that.  It may be slightly more complex.

Worked here as well, except for vncserver. I'm not sure what broke, but 
systemctl status tells me it failed. I've forgotten how to get a more 
complete message, so it's off to search I go.

I know, working on a laptop via vnc is kind of strange, but it's actually 
pretty reasonable.

Check CD/DVD media or better use USB. I had similar situation on broken
CD several years ago.
