Request for testers to confirm nv driver mouse cursor bug
by Mike A. Harris 25 Feb '06

25 Feb '06

If you are using Nvidia video hardware with FC5test3 or later, and the mouse cursor is invisible, or has any visible mouse pointer corruption, please add a comment to the following bug report to confirm you are having the same problem, and attach your X server log file as an uncompressed file attachment: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=182517 2 chips have been identified as experiencing this problem so far, so once people have updated the report with any other chips that have the problem, I am going to disable hardware cursors on those chips by default so that things work out of the box in FC5 for as many nv users as possible. Once the upstream nv driver maintainer fixes the bugs in the driver, we'll update and drop the workaround. For those who want to track the issue in X.Org, the upstream bug is: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3009 Thanks in advance. -- Mike A. Harris, Systems Engineer, X11 Development team, Red Hat Canada, Ltd.

td_ta_new returns TD_VERSION?
by Frank Chen 25 Feb '06

25 Feb '06

I am using gdbserver to debug a multi-threaded application on FC3. The call to td_ta_new returns TD_VERSION in gdbserver (thread-db.c). From gdb 6.4, the error maps to "version mismatch between libthread_db and libpthread" Both these libraries come with FC3. Does anyone know a solution to this problem? I tried setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/lib/tls. But it didn't help. Thanks, Frank __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Pup and repos

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I love pup, it certainly runs a lot faster than yumex. Will it also be able to update packages from other repositories? Also, will add/remove software recognize other repos defined in /etc/yum.d/ ?

XMMS and Rhythmbox
by Eric Mesa 25 Feb '06

25 Feb '06

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I see that with FC5 we finally moved away from calling Rhythmbox "music player" and XMMS "audio player". I remember trying to install Rhythmbox when I first had FC in order to check it out because I didn't know I already had it on my system. Plus the subtle difference between music player and audio player was a little annoying too. I'm curious, when I upgrade to FC5 (currently I'm running T3 as a VMWare player image), will this be changed in my menu to reflect what it is now being called?

Few issues of fedora test 3
by Leo 25 Feb '06

25 Feb '06

Dear all, I installed fc5test3 from scratch 1 day before official announcement. And have some issues: i. Wastebasket is always empty: I have reported it as a bug. It was closed due to "Cant reproduce this problem in FC5test3. Closing". But it is still in my system. Update to the latest development won't help. Any idea how to fix it or get more debug information? https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=182087 ii. Mount reiserfs failed. Any fix? message from dmesg: ------------------begin------------------------------------------------- ReiserFS: hda6: found reiserfs format "3.6" with standard journal ReiserFS: hda6: using ordered data mode ReiserFS: hda6: journal params: device hda6, size 8192, journal first block 18, max trans len 1024, max batch 900, max commit age 30, max trans age 30 ReiserFS: hda6: checking transaction log (hda6) ReiserFS: hda6: Using r5 hash to sort names ReiserFS: hda6: warning: xattrs/ACLs enabled and couldn't find/create.reiserfs_priv.

Re: Keeping SELinux on (was Attention: Proprietary video driver users (ATI, Nvidia, etc.))

What has SELinux policy got to do with application developers? The targeted policy "focuses on locking down specific daemons, especially ones vulnerable to attack or to devastating a system if broken or compromised". (From the SELinux FAQ on fedora.redhat.com.) That's a tiny subset of applications. Ron

gnome 2.14 after FC5 released?
by Eric Wood 24 Feb '06

24 Feb '06

Since the release dates for gnome 2.14 and FC5 are the same, and the devel freeze is even earlier, will the gnome 2.14 probably be released as an update? I know there was some talk about sliding FC5 just for the sake of gnome 2.14 and it performance benefits. I was just wondering what the latest concensus was. -eric wood

iptables problems after kernel 1871
by Gianluca Cecchi 24 Feb '06

24 Feb '06

after upgrade to 1871 kernel and iptables 1.3.4-3 I have problems with iptables. Actually I made a localupdate when 1869 and 1871 were in place. I didn't notice that yum proposed to deinstall 1869 and reinstall 1871. I had these messages when overwriting my running kernel: [root@fedora fedora]# less /tmp/yum.log Installing: kernel ####################### [18/70] /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.64393: line 1: 3235 Segmentation fault /usr/sbin/module_upgrade 2.6.15-1.1871_FC5 [snip] Installing: kernel-smp ####################### [25/70] /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.86392: line 1: 3829 Segmentation fault /usr/sbin/module_upgrade 2.6.15-1.1871_FC5smp [snip] Cleanup : pirut ####################### [64/70] Could not parse file '/usr/share/applications/redhat-ekiga.desktop': Failed to open file '/usr/share/applications/redhat-ekiga.desktop': No such file or directory Removing : openh323 ####################### [65/70] Now iptables give these errors: [root@fedora fedora]# service iptables restart Flushing firewall rules: iptables: loop hook 0 pos 0 00000021. iptables: Too many levels of symbolic links iptables: loop hook 0 pos 0 00000021. iptables: Too many levels of symbolic links [FAILED] Setting chains to policy ACCEPT: nat iptables: Invalid argument [FAILED] Unloading iptables modules: Removing netfilter NETLINK layer.
