new orage in rawhide
by Kevin Fenzi 21 Aug '10

21 Aug '10

Greetings. I have updated orage in rawhide to 4.7.5.16 This version now uses the system version of libical instead of it's own bundled version. It seems to work fine here, but more testing would be great. If all looks ok after a while I will probably push this for f14 and el6. Then if that looks good, el5. I would like to get rid of the bundled library where possible... it's been working fine here for a week or two. kevin

Using desktop notification without gnome's notification-daemon
by Suvayu Ali 17 Aug '10

17 Aug '10

Hi, I am using xfce4-notifyd for desktop notification. I have turned off gnome's notification-daemon as per this, http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/xfce/2010-June/000139.html Now my question is, I want to use notification using notify-send. But when I execute something like this on the terminal, $ notify-send "Msg" "body" I don't see any notification on the desktop. Does anyone know why? Does notify-send work only with gnome's notification-daemon? If so, what is the corresponding command for xfce4-notifyd. My intention is to call these notifications from the terminal to notify me when my jobs finish. Thanks a lot for any suggestions. -- Suvayu Open source is the future. It sets us free.

Working F14 Alpha RC3 live images now available
by Adam Williamson 11 Aug '10

11 Aug '10

Hi, everyone. Working live images for Fedora 14 Alpha RC3 are now available here: http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/stage/14-Alpha.RC3.1.live/ we've screwed this up so many times I took the precaution of actually downloading and booting all the x86-64 images before writing this email. So I personally guarantee they at least boot to a desktop in virt-manager! We have the go/no-go meeting in just under 3 hours. It would be very helpful if people could help fill in at least the Alpha tests for each desktop in the desktop testing matrix: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Fedora_14_Alpha_RC3_Desktop thanks a lot! -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net

[Fwd: [Test-Announce] Fedora 14 Alpha RC2 Available Now!]
by Adam Williamson 07 Aug '10

07 Aug '10

Hi, everyone - the second Alpha RC is now available. We're fairly sure this one is actually installable. :) Please note that we don't have live images that are really testable as equivalents to rc2 yet, because quite a lot of packages which were cherry-picked for rc2 have not been approved as updates yet and so are not being included in live composes. So for now I'm afraid you can only do the desktop testing by installing from the DVD and selecting the appropriate package set manually. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net
