mail gui
by John Mizell 01 Nov '04

01 Nov '04

To begin programming one has to know what to program against. Right now no one knows what the perfered mail server is.

Any specific one of the 3 MTAs Fedora ships with (Sendmail, Postfix, Exim) or Cyrus-IMAPd or dovecot for the IMAP/POP3 serving?

cd wont boot on an old P200 box
by Louis Garcia 01 Nov '04

01 Nov '04

Trying to install fc3 on a pentium 200mhz and the cd wont boot. Think the bios is to old, installed fine on more modern boxes. Any ideas on how to get fc3 on this sucker? A floppy boot disk would come in handy about now. --Louis

When can we expect development to start on a Mail server Gui tool? It seems this is one of the last servers that does not have a gui. Thanx, John Mizell

FC3 rpm behavior change
by Dax Kelson 01 Nov '04

01 Nov '04

The FC3 Release Notes say: ============= RPM's default behavior regarding file conflicts in Fedora Core 3 has changed. In the past, file conflicts (where a file from one already-installed package also appears in a package that is to be installed) caused the installation of the package containing the conflicting file to abort. In Fedora Core 3, RPM will ignore such conflicts, and the package installation will proceed, overwriting any conflicting files from previously-installed packages. ============ What's the rationale for this?

Emergency downtime for Fedora Extras
by Warren Togami 31 Oct '04

31 Oct '04

Sometime during Saturday, October 30th fedora.us was knocked offline due to a severe flood on the campus of the University of Hawaii. Now the main web server where download.fedora.us is housed is back up, but power may be unreliable as most of campus is heavily damaged. fedora.us Bugzilla and build system is down for an indeterminate amount of time.

Proposal: make PPC a supported arch for FC4
by Ralf Ertzinger 31 Oct '04

31 Oct '04

Hi. So, that is it, in short. What would need to be done to make this happen? There are some minor things I noticed during my rawhide install (resolution detection, sound card detection...), some support for laptops is missing (pbbuttons is frowned upon), but all in all I think things are looking quite well. How are the chances for it? -- I'm gonna go close my office door, 'cause my EPIDERMIS is showing!
