by Tyler 30 Mar '06

30 Mar '06

Hello everyone. I have a problem I was hoping someone could help me with. When I try to boot my Fedora CD I get this message ISOLINUX 2.06 2003-08-22 isolinux: disk error 01, AX = 4293, 9F I have no idea what it means or what to do. Any help that someone could give me would be appreciated.

IBM db2 Express C
by Nat Gross 28 Mar '06

28 Mar '06

Has anyone succeeded installing IBM's db2(full version or free express C version) on Fedora 4? Although I can get by various stages of installation, its not quite 'there' with the bottom line being that its unusable on FC4. Someone at the Ibm db2 forum is telling me that FC4 is too much bleeding edge and that it runs on his CentOS system. Being with Fedora since FC2, and with kind folks on this list, I don't want to switch, but I can't resist replacing mySql with a free version of db2! (Ok, so I can't use more than 4 gig ram. Or quad processors.) The sorry thing is that it does install, but utilities used to setup the databases fail. Anyhow, if anyone has db2 [express C] running on FC4, please gimme a holler. Thanks; -nat

Problem with new 2.6.15 kernel and serial ports
by Jouni Viikari 28 Mar '06

28 Mar '06

Just updated my server with todays updates. In addition to the X problem (Solved by http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-test-list/2006-February/msg00179.html) the new kernel seems not to find all of my multiple serial ports. Also two port numbers are different, which is also bad: /var/log/messages of 2.6.15 boot: kernel: Serial: 8250/16550 driver $Revision: 1.90 $ 4 ports, IRQ sharing enabled kernel: serial8250: ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A kernel: serial8250: ttyS1 at I/O 0x2f8 (irq = 3) is a 16550A kernel: 00:09: ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A kernel: 00:0a: ttyS1 at I/O 0x2f8 (irq = 3) is a 16550A kernel: ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LNKC] enabled at IRQ 11 kernel: PCI: setting IRQ 11 as level-triggered kernel: ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:02:0e.0[A] -> Link [LNKC] -> GSI 11 (level, low) -> IRQ 11 kernel: 0000:02:0e.0: ttyS2 at I/O 0xa800 (irq = 11) is a 16550A kernel: 0000:02:0e.0: ttyS3 at I/O 0xa400 (irq = 11) is a 16550A Older 2.6.14 kernel: kernel: Serial: 8250/16550 driver $Revision: 1.90 $ 32 ports, IRQ sharing enabled kernel: ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A kernel: ttyS1 at I/O 0x2f8 (irq = 3) is a 16550A kernel: ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A kernel: ttyS1 at I/O 0x2f8 (irq = 3) is a 16550A kernel: ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LNKC] enabled at IRQ 11 kernel: PCI: setting IRQ 11 as level-triggered kernel: ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:02:0e.0[A] -> Link [LNKC] -> GSI 11 (level, low) -> IRQ 11 kernel: ttyS4 at I/O 0xa800 (irq = 11) is a 16550A kernel: ttyS5 at I/O 0xa400 (irq = 11) is a 16550A kernel: ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:02:0e.1[A] -> Link [LNKC] -> GSI 11 (level, low) -> IRQ 11 kernel: ttyS6 at I/O 0xa000 (irq = 11) is a 16550A kernel: ttyS7 at I/O 0x9800 (irq = 11) is a 16550A lspci -v (2.6.14): 02:0e.0 Serial controller: Lava Computer mfg Inc Quattro-PCI A (prog-if 02 [16550]) Flags: slow devsel, IRQ 11 I/O ports at a800 [size=8] I/O ports at a400 [size=8] 02:0e.1 Serial controller: Lava Computer mfg Inc Quattro-PCI B (prog-if 02 [16550]) Flags: slow devsel, IRQ 11 I/O ports at a000 [size=8] I/O ports at 9800 [size=8] Best regards, Jouni

Updated FC4 install disk(s)?
by David Niemi 19 Mar '06

19 Mar '06

A few months ago there were some messages about an updated version of the install CDs or the DVD, is this still available from someone's site or on bittorent? The June FC4 CDs/DVD do not have adequate support for my motherboard (Biostar TForce 6100-939) with the nForce-4 chipset so the on-board network card (RTL8201BL/RTL8201CL) and other things aren't found. FC5-T1 just keeps rebooting after the install too fast to see what the problem is and I've tried many of the kernel options. SUSE 10 works great though but I'd rather run Fedora. I'll probably try FC5-T2 next week if I can't get FC4 installed. Agreed, I could download all of the base, updates, and extras with SUSE then do a local yum update with the hobbled FC4 and see if that works. Thanks for the information / suggestions.

Hotkeys utility for Acer Travelmate
by Deboo ^ 18 Mar '06

18 Mar '06

Is there a utility available for an Acer Travelmate 2410 series to make the hotkeys work? Especially the LCD/Monitor switch and the battery status. There was something like "i810 switch" thing availble for some Sony Vaio laptops. Is there something similar availble for a travelmate 2410? The acerhk doesn't compile and still it only would give the keycodes. Any other utility available, please reply. Regards, Deboo -- Please don't Cc: me, I'm subscribed to the list.

Fedora Core 4 On mini mac
by Hill, Richard D 16 Mar '06

16 Mar '06

(sorry if this is the wrong place to post this) For days I have been trying to install Fedora core 4 (ppc) on my Mini Mac I have repartitioned destroyed partitions etc and every time it errors with ignore or cancel messages about partition blocks I can press ignore and go on but it generally bombs out when it comes to the actual formatting of the new partitions I've defined and the copy of files part , on one occasion it seemed to actually install but on reboot it failed to load kernel image There is nothing wrong with the hdd I have no issues at all installing tiger back on the Mini Mac , but do what I will it actively refuses to have anything to do with Fedora. Has anyone else experienced this problem ?

I assume that you new Extras build includes gzip support. I'm thinking in terms of my site's rbldnsd tutorial for FC. Before I muck it up can you explain why anyone would want their zone files compressed? -- Our DNSRBL - Eliminate Spam: http://www.TQMcube.com Multi-RBL Check: http://www.TQMcube.com/rblcheck.php Zombie Graphs: http://www.TQMcube.com/zombies.php

I made one mistake in my earlier response . I spoke only about the cupsd.conf files on the clients. The cupsd.conf file on the server has an additions line which may or not be required. This line is as follows: Listen <server address> Otherwise the only othe Listen line is: Listen 127.0.0.1:631 ------------------------------------------- Aaron Konstam Computer Science Trinity University telephone: (210)-999-7484

dual head on fedora

I was trying to set up a computer with dual head and install an ATI 9250 AGP card and an ATI 9250 PCI card.
