Outgoing email filters for claws-mail
by Suvayu Ali 01 Jan '11

01 Jan '11

Hi everyone, Can anyone point me to how to setup outgoing email filters with claws. I am using Claws with Gmail over IMAP and would like to put a copy of the sent email in the folder I am replying from. Without this my replies don't appear in the thread. Thanks for any help on this. -- Suvayu Open source is the future. It sets us free.

Installing F14 on a HP M9517C behind Vista
by Mickey 01 Jan '11

01 Jan '11

I have a friend that lives in a different State and wants F14 Installed on a second Sata hard drive , behind Vista. Would it be better to use Vista's boot procedures or grubs at Boot startup. And if so, where would I find instructions on setting it up in Vista.

NTLDR is missing error after fresh install of Win XP VM
by Mark LaPierre 01 Jan '11

01 Jan '11

Hey all, Fedora 13 clean install Gnome desktop [mlapier@mushroom ~]$ uname -a Linux mushroom.patch 2.6.34.7-66.fc13.i686.PAE #1 SMP Wed Dec 15 07:21:49 UTC 2010 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux I just finished installing a Win XP VM using the Virtual Machine Manager GUI. After the initial installation step the VM wants to restart to complete the installation. I stopped the VM and set the boot order to CD then HD. That restart went well and the installation completed about 3:00 this morning. When I was setting up the VM I selected the Windows type and the Win XP subtype. I reset the boot order to HD then CD. When I tried to start the VM after the install was complete it complained that it couldn't find the CD ISO image because I had taken the CD out of the drive. That would make sense seeing that the installation was complete. I deleted the CD drive from the VM hardware. That solved the missing CD ISO problem but now there's the Booting from Hard Disk... NTLDR is missing Press and key to restart When I press "any key", that would be the really wide one at the bottom of the key board, the above message is repeated each time I press the "any key". I tried formatting the virtual disk with the NT file system and with the FAT file system. I get the same result so that's not the issue. I've installed VM's off this Win XP installation disk in the past on earlier Fedora versions and they would boot up so I know it's not the install disk. I've tried everything I can think of or find on Google searches and I'm getting really tired of three hour Win XP install sessions. Does anyone have an idea what's wrong with this set up?

nm-connection-editor's "Available to all users" checkbox
by W. Michael Petullo 01 Jan '11

01 Jan '11

I can't figure out why nm-connection-editor's "Available to all users" checkbox is not working for me on Fedora 14. I have the following behavior in two use scenarios: 1. Wireless/Add: receive "Connection add failed: Insufficient privileges" error dialog when I click "Apply" with "Available to all users" checked. 2. Wireless/Edit: fails silently. That is, I click "Apply" and receive no error. But, when I again edit the connection, I see that the "Available to all users" is not checked. I would expect to be prompted for a root password when I click "Apply." I would also expect to see some type of error message in the second scenario. I am able to add or edit a system-wide configuration if I run "pkexec nm-connection-editor --display=:0.0" and provide my root password. My user account is stored in LDAP. I have tried adding myself to the desktop_admin_t and desktop_user_r groups (by editing the local /etc/group and confirming with the groups command), but this does not help. I am using Fedora 14 and have the following related packages installed: polkit-desktop-policy-0.98-4.fc14.noarch polkit-0.98-4.fc14.x86_64 polkit-gnome-0.97-4.fc15.x86_64 NetworkManager-glib-0.8.1-10.git20100831.fc14.x86_64 NetworkManager-gnome-0.8.1-10.git20100831.fc14.x86_64 NetworkManager-0.8.1-10.git20100831.fc14.x86_64 Has anyone else had a similar problem? -- Mike :wq

Avahi and IPv6
by W. Michael Petullo 01 Jan '11

01 Jan '11

I am trying to get Avahi working in a Fedora 14 IPv6 environment. I've read what I can find about the subject, but am still having trouble. I have written "use-ipv6=yes" to "avahi-daemon.conf," but when I run "avahi-browse," I do not see any IPv6 services listed (only IPv4). For an additional test, I turned off "use-ipv4." In this case, "avahi-browse" listed no services. I would expect to see at least the "_workstation._tcp" service listed as available on IPv6. Finally, I enabled ipv6, disabled ipv4 and ran "avahi-publish -s test _test._tcp 80." This command responded with "Established under name 'test'," but avahi-browse did not display the service. The Avahi daemon does seem to pick up my IPv6 interface, as the following debug output shows: $ sudo avahi-daemon --debug Process 8620 died: No such process; trying to remove PID file. (/var/run/avahi-daemon//pid) Found user 'avahi' (UID 498) and group 'avahi' (GID 493). Successfully dropped root privileges. avahi-daemon 0.6.27 starting up. Successfully called chroot(). Successfully dropped remaining capabilities. Loading service file /services/ssh.service. Loading service file /services/udisks.service.

Service "imp" (/services/ssh.service) successfully established. I have tried turning off my host firewall and have disabled SELinux in order to test. Does anyone know why "avahi-browse" is not displaying IPv6 services? -- Mike :wq

All video editors are muting the audio?
by Zoltan Hoppar 01 Jan '11

01 Jan '11

I have tried to cut my videos to pieces, and stream back them together to have the best moments that I have recorded - but it seems that I couldn't.... The newest pitivi at last works, not crashing, but I couldn't control the audio part of the clips - however would be fine for this case, but rendering the project doesn't saves ANY audio.... Ok, have installed Avidemux, where I have more control. Same result, and more because crashes, freezing as should.... I have tried bunch of softwares - but right now, I sitting here on pile of recorded home movies - and couldn't do anything.... I don't want to give up, but if somebody says that I have to debug, or test or ANYTHING to achive better multimedia support - I'M HERE.... :( -- PGP: 06853DF7
