Local Wordpress on Fedora 14
by Anne Wilson 18 May '11

18 May '11

I want to experiment with Wordpress, so it seemed a good idea to set up a local copy. Or maybe not. :-) I started following the guide http://www.if- not-true-then-false.com/2010/install-wordpress-on-fedora-centos-red-hat-rhe… - until I got to step 3 - connect to mysql as root. How do you do that when you haven't set up passwords? I must be missing something really obvious, but I'm absolutely stuck. Can someone kick me in the right direction please?

IMPORTANT - Fedora Project Contributor Agreement Signing Window Is Open
by Tom Callaway 17 May '11

17 May '11

Please take a moment and read this brief email, as it is important. Fedora is in the process of retiring our old "Individual Contributor License Agreement" (also known as the ICLA or CLA) and replacing it with the new Fedora Project Contributor Agreement (FPCA). All Fedora contributors with accounts in the Fedora Account System (https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts) who have agreed to the old CLA *MUST* agree to the new FPCA by June 17, 2011 to continue contributing to Fedora. Here is how you do this: 1) Login to the Fedora Account System: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts 2) Once logged in, click on the "My Account" link in the blue box on the left side of the window. 3) On the page that loads, you will see a section labeled "Account Details". Look for the line that says "Contributor Agreement". On that line, you should see a new section that says: "New CLA Not Signed - We need contributors to sign the new Contributor Agreement(Complete it now!)" Click on "Complete it now!" and follow the prompts. ***** It is important that Fedora Account holders who have signed the old Fedora CLA sign the new FPCA. We have allotted a window of one month for Fedora contributors to agree to the FPCA. This means that after June 17, 2011, any Fedora Contributors who have not agreed to the FPCA will have their "cla_done" flag set to False. This also means that any groups that they are in which are dependent upon "cla_done", such as "packager", "ambassador", and Fedora People access will be removed. There are a few accounts which are exempt from this, specifically, accounts which are members of the "cla_dell", "cla_intel", and "cla_redhat" groups. If you do not know what these groups are, you are probably not in them. :) Accounts in these groups will not see the "New CLA Not Signed" line on their "My Account" page, and do not need to take any action at this time. Please take a minute and login to FAS to agree to the terms of the FPCA, to avoid loss of access. More information about the FPCA, including the final FPCA text, can be found here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Legal:Fedora_Project_Contributor_Agreement If you have any additional questions about the FPCA or the re-signing process, please feel free to email me directly at legal(a)fedoraproject.org. Thanks, Tom Callaway, Fedora Legal == Fedora Project

by Athmane Madjoudj 17 May '11

Hello all, I've seen that nucleo is working on oxygen-gtk3 package [1], can someone confirm if this will hit F15 (I haven't found a pkg review for oxygen-gtk3). [1] http://nucleo.fedorapeople.org/rpms/oxygen-gtk3/ Thanks in advance. -- Athmane Madjoudj RHCE

/etc/sysconfig/desktop?
by Neal Becker 14 May '11

14 May '11

Does F15 still use /etc/sysconfig/desktop to switch to KDM? I don't see any such file, and: yum provides /etc/sysconfig/desktop Loaded plugins: langpacks, presto, refresh-packagekit No Matches found

Fedora 15 Final RC3 available: desktop testing needed!
by Adam Williamson 14 May '11

14 May '11

Hey, everyone. So the third release candidate for the final Fedora 15 release is now up, and this time we have live images, that work! I'm so excited. (For RC1 and RC2 we had a couple of bugs which stopped some of the live images from composing, and stopped those that *did* compose from actually booting). So as always, we need some desktop validation testing! You can find the images at http://serverbeach1.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/stage/15.RC3/Live/ . The desktop test instructions/results page is: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Fedora_15_Final_RC3_Desktop Grab an image, go to that page, click on the 'test case' links, do the tests, and enter your results in the 'Test Matrix' table. I'm afraid there is no 'profit' step, except the warm fuzzy feeling you get when contributing to a new Fedora release. We need to do all the tests for the 'desktop', 'fallback' (GNOME 3 fallback mode), and 'KDE' columns at least, and it'd be good to get the tests done for the other desktops too so we know where they stand. If you hit any bugs which are complete fails for any of the tests, please file them at http://bugzilla.redhat.com and mark them as blocking the bug 'F15Blocker' (or if you don't have the privileges to do so, poke me and I'll do it). Thanks! If you have any questions, do go ahead and ask. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net

can't report crash kde plasma
by Neal Becker 14 May '11

14 May '11

crash reporting assistant asks to install debug symbols, but this fails for some reason. I can't tell why, because the window immediately closes (something about parsing metadata). I tried editing /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora{-updates}.repo to set debuginfo to enable=1, but no difference.

Fedora 14 and Plasma Netbook
by Anne Wilson 10 May '11

10 May '11

I thought I should try the netbook interface, but to my surprise it isn't offered from the login screen. Has the option moved, or does it require extra packages to be installed? Anne -- New to KDE Software? - get help from http://userbase.kde.org

Hey, what a surprise! This time the release caught me by surprise, instead of me plucking it from koji ;-) It's downloading as I write.
