is Fedora 12 alpha for x86_64 burnable and usable?
by Robert P. J. Day 05 Oct '09

05 Oct '09

i downloaded Fedora-12-Alpha-x86_64-DVD.iso, it seems to be fine, "isovfy" looks good, the sha256sum checksum matches, it's "-o loop" mountable, but i've tried twice to use k3b to burn it to DVD and the result is a DVD that *visually* looks like it's had something burned to it but two different machines claim that the DVD is blank and refuse to mount it. i've never had this difficulty before with downloading and burning fedora DVDs. thoughts? rday p.s. not surprisingly, i can't boot from a "burned" DVD since it simply appears blank. p.p.s. for the first time, i'm using a different brand of DVD -- imation DVD+R. i hesitate to blame the media but ... who knows? -- ======================================================================== Robert P.

After the last few updates, the login manager seems to default to gnome, even though kde has been set as the default session. F12 x86-64. Check this. Best A. Mani -- A. Mani ASL, CLC, AMS, CMS http://www.logicamani.co.cc

Rawhide? Are we in freeze or what?

There has been now rawhide for several days, and the current images won't install on my older i686(Radeon r100/7200/QD) box. Where can we track rawhide status? -- G.Wolfe Woodbury

Welcome to the Bug Zappers
by TK009 05 Oct '09

05 Oct '09

Hello Chris, welcome! I will approve your group membership in a second. We've just updated the list of components which we'd like BugZappers to work on as a priority, so there's lots available. The list is: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/Components_and_Triagers we'd recommend you pick a component from that list that you feel comfortable working on, then contact its maintainer to say you'll be working on triaging it, and ask if they have any tips or special requests. Then read: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugsAndFeatureRequests https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/BugStatusWorkFlow https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/Tools https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/FindingBugs https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/How_to_Triage https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/FindingDuplicates https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/StockBugzillaResponses To see how the process works (I know that looks like a lot of pages, but several of them are pretty short, and they all work together). Please do join #fedora-bugzappers and ask if you have any questions or problems, there's usually another team member around who can help you out. Thanks a lot for volunteering your time! We have our weekly meeting tomorrow - Tuesday at 15:00 UTC (11:00 ETS) - Please come if you have the time, and we can welcome you there. Edward Kirk (IRC: TK009)

by James Laska 05 Oct '09

05 Oct '09

Greetings folks, Many thanks to all who participated in the anaconda test day hosted last Thursday [1]. A decent range of storage scenarios were tested, including various combinations of LVM, RAID and encryption, iSCSI, USB and PowerPC. We had a few new faces helping shake out bugs. Special thanks to Alexey Torkhov who wrestled through some live image issues and gets the prize for most reported issues for the event. 526699 NEW - CryptoError: luks_format failed for '/dev/mapper/VolGroup-LogVol00' 526782 NEW - setroubleshoot: SELinux is preventing /bin/loadkeys access to a leaked /dev/mapper/control file descriptor. 526789 NEW - Install didn't reboot at the end 526899 NEW - Encrypted partitions has "Unknown" type in table and ext4 in editor 526975 NEW - AttributeError: 'LVMPhysicalVolume' object has no attribute 'mapName' 527091 NEW - Installer causes a number of popups when creating filesystems 526906 NEW - Switching encryption on and off creates more and more luks devices 525615 NEW - system can not automatically reboot after exit installer -f12 beta TC 526822 ASSIGNED - Installer didn't install boot loader if /boot is on mdraid1 526842 ASSIGNED - Firstboot not run after installation 526778 CLOSED NOTABUG - Some installation screens has no text on live cd 526898 CLOSED NOTABUG - Doesn't allow to edit LVM PV to set encryption 502310 CLOSED RAWHIDE - Editing partitions without providing a passphrase for previously encrypted partitions fails - IndexError: list index out of range 523862 CLOSED RAWHIDE - mdadm craps at boot Dmraid is an area still in need of additional focus. If you have dmraid capable hardware, I invite you to join the RAID test day, this Thursday Oct 8 [2]. Thanks, James [1] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Day:2009-10-01_Anaconda/Features/Storag… [2] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Day:2009-10-08

Please test new PackageKit...
by Richard Hughes 05 Oct '09

05 Oct '09

Hello friendly testers, When you have a few minutes spare, could you please test http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=1727776 -- I intend to tag this build for F12 in the next couple of days. It fixes the following problems: * #526600, Fix double free in pk-gstreamer-install which causes a crash. * #527044, Exit pk-command-not-found with 127 when we have not run a program. * Fix crash in notification daemon under some conditions due to non-resident GTK module * Don't explicitly download the file lists when using pk-command-not-found If you could please test the package, and report any regressions you notice compared to the PackageKit-debug-install-0.5.3-0.1.20090928git package which is already in rawhide. Thanks, Richard.

invisible icons in panel
by Chuck Anderson 04 Oct '09

04 Oct '09

I tested desktop-x86_64-20091002.15.iso and the icons for gnome-volume-control-applet, nm-applet, gnome-power-manger, and bluetooth are invisible in the panel. You can mouse over the area where they should be and see their tooltips, click on them and use them, but they icons themselves are missing/invisible.
