google chrome 20 / flash player / full screen
by Kernel Guardian 02 Jul '12

02 Jul '12

After last google chrome update I have problem to display any flash contents in full screen mode. After investigation in chrome://plugins I find 2 plugins under flash. One is from google installation directory PaperFlash/libpepflashplayer.so and second one is in flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so. Verisions are: libpepflashplayer.so - 11.3.31.109 libflashplayer.so - 11.2 r202 For now only solution I found is to disable PepperFlash from chrome and leave flash-plugin enabled. Fortunately Firefox is not affected with google PepperFlush bug.

F17, power switch offers no choices??
by Fred Smith 02 Jul '12

02 Jul '12

I haven't used Fedora on my netbook since F14, I used Centos 6 in that interim. however, both centos 6 and fedora (back when I used it) allowd one to press the netbook's power switch, while logged in, and got a dialog offering choices like shutdown, log off, standby, hibernate. how, on F17 though, it just does a shutdown, depending on which desktop/session I'm in. (in gnome it seems to just go to standby mode, while in lxde or xfce (or MATE, which I've installed) it just shuts down. I assume this is an artifact of systemd, but have no clue how to hack it to make it once again offer the choices. thanks!

Fail to start bacula director with systemctl.
by Erik P. Olsen 01 Jul '12

01 Jul '12

When migrating to fedora 16 (from 14) I have to start bacula using systemctl. It works fine with the client and storage daemons but the director service fails. systemctl status bacula-<daemon> shows: [root@epohost ~]# systemctl status bacula-dir.service bacula-dir.service - Bacula-Director, the Backup-server Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/bacula-dir.service; enabled) Active: failed since Fri, 29 Jun 2012 23:09:35 +0200; 1min 9s ago Process: 1781 ExecStart=/usr/sbin/bacula-dir -f $OPTS -c $CONFIG -u $DIR_USER -g $DIR_GROUP (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) Process: 1778 ExecStartPre=/usr/sbin/bacula-checkconf $CONFIG (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) CGroup: name=systemd:/system/bacula-dir.service [root@epohost ~]# systemctl status bacula-sd.service bacula-sd.service - Bacula-StorageDaemon, the storage-server Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/bacula-sd.service; enabled) Active: active (running) since Fri, 29 Jun 2012 23:09:27 +0200; 1min 42s ago Process: 1205 ExecStartPre=/usr/sbin/bacula-checkconf $CONFIG (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Main PID: 1219 (bacula-sd) CGroup: name=systemd:/system/bacula-sd.service └ 1219 /usr/sbin/bacula-sd -f -c /etc/bacula/bacula-sd.co...

Can somebody decipher what is wrong or perhaps suggest a way to diagnose the problem? Starting bacula-dir manually works fine. Maybe this is for the bacula community to answer but I've started here since it may a failure in the rpm package. -- Erik

Cannot find valid baseurl for rpmfusion repo
by Mark Haney 01 Jul '12

01 Jul '12

I've googled this a couple of times, but can't seem to find a straight answer on this problem. I installed the rpmfusion repos both with the GUI and from the CLI and I get this same problem, 'Cannot find valid baseurl'. Any ideas? -- Mark Haney Software Developer/Consultant AB Emblem markh(a)abemblem.com Linux marius.homelinux 3.4.2-1.fc16.x86_64 GNU/Linux

k3b and create image
by JD 30 Jun '12

30 Jun '12

I used k3b to copy the image of an audio cd. It produced files like Track01.wav .... Track16.wav and it also produced a file simply with the title of the audio cd, and without extensions and it is 803066400 bytes large. Running $ file 'Into The Unknown' Into The Unknown: data The file is quite larger than the 704MB max (with overburn) that a CD can hold. This file is 100MB larger than that. So, how can I use this file? I was hoping it would be in a format that could be used by any of the plethora of media players in linux. mplayer failed to open it.

The reference itself was not to Wikipedia, though it would be explained by Wikipedia, and members of an English-language mailing list may be presumed to understand an English-language version of Wikipedia. Further, the referent enjoyed attention through-out Europe. There's no persuasive reason for you to make this ugly.
