Disk 1 install setup screen freezes
by Richard Emberson
I've got an HP 760n. It can not boot from CD, so I copied vmlinuz and
initrd.img from isolinux into /boot and modified grub.conf.
During the boot the mouse, card and display are correctly
recognized.
The problem:
The mouse/keyboard/window freezes within the first couple of
install setup screens. The furthest I got was entering in
my ip address. The earliest freeze occurred when the mouse
(as a pointer, after its an 'X') first appears.
Any hints as to whats up?
Thanks.

More bad dependencies
by John Thacker
gstreamer-plugins also depends on gtk+, when it shouldn't. After doing
some digging, ldd revealed that the offending file is
/usr/lib/gstreamer-0.8/libgstdvdec.so , the libdv decoder.
Doing more digging, I discovered that that's because libdv's pkgconfig
file, /usr/lib/pkgconfig/libdv.pc , incorrectly claims that it requires
glib and gtk+. Actually, the only thing that requires GTK+ is the
playdv tool that we ship in libdv-tools. However, a bug in libdv
source causes it to pick up those requirements for its pkgconfig file.
This has been discussed on the libdv mailing lists, with a patch here,
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=4431792&forum_id=5458
and the patch incorporated into upstream CVS:
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/libdv/libdv/libdv.pc.in
This patch should be incorporated until the next upstream release.
If we fix this, we can revert the change in Bug 123367 to add gtk+-devel
to libdv-devel's dependencies. As an added bonus, it will eliminate
the bogus gtk+ and glib dependencies from gstreamer-plugins, and anything
else which uses libdv, once gstreamer-plugins is rebuilt.

Smartcard base components
by Veiko Sinivee
Hi Ville,
I didn't know that these packages existed already. My
objective was really to release RPM-s on my own libdigidoc library and gdigidoc GUI applications that
need these packages. This application might (?) work
also with Finnish ID cards since it uses (can use any pkcs11 driver really) opensc library. You can find more info about the OpenXAdES format that we are using
here http://www.openxades.org. We intend to add other features like cryptography too. Right now it's just a digital siganture application. The modified opensc library I was offering here has been patched by Marie Fischer and Martin Paljak <martin(a)paljak.pri.ee> to support Estonian ID cards. They made some modifications to the code and some ATR strings in the opensc.conf to init the card. Please consult with Martin Paljak as he has developed the last version of this opensc branch. I'd like to see this suff being incorporated in opensc main line and released.
Ok how can I help you test these packages you mentioned? I haven't really developed too low-level
opensc code yet but I can at least test this stuff. Please provide some more details on how to get the packages from bugzilla.fedora.com. I did a search on opensc and found nothing. Do I need a special user/registration etc.
Would you be interested in testing gdigidoc? I'll try to provide Finnish locale support as well.
I'm very interested in OmniKey drivers. I have such a device on my laptop and this darn thing prevents me from upgrading the laptop to FC2. It works on Mandrake 9.2 though. I've seen only cm4000 drivers version 2.3.2 on www.omnikey.com. Do they have anything newer?
regards,
Veiko

No more kernel-source(code) ??? (was: rawhide report: 20040623 changes)
by Leonard den Ottolander
Hi Arjan,
> Can you explain to me why I should even bother to go the
> more-work route if no matter what I do I get shit thrown at me ?
I have no intention to throw shit at you whatsoever. (What is it I said
that gives you this feeling?) However, as a member of the community I
feel I can bring up issues that concern us, like how changes like these
should be communicated (i.e. before the fact, not after).
As somebody already pointed out if it is your intention to drop
kernel-source(code) it could just as well be the kernel-source switch
gets dropped altogether without being pre announced...

external modules issues
by Dennis Gilmore
Hi,
im trying to build an external module for kernel 2.6.7-1.441 the module builds
fine when i insert it i get
/sbin/modprobe spca50x
FATAL: Error inserting spca50x
(/lib/modules/2.6.7-1.441/kernel/drivers/usb/media/spca50x.ko): Invalid
module format
dmesg shows
spca50x: version magic '2.6.7-1.441 686 REGPARM 4KSTACKS gcc-3.3' should be
'2.6.7-1.441 686 REGPARM 4KSTACKS gcc-3.4'
i changed HOSTCC in /lib/modules/2.6.7-1.441/build/Makefile to be gcc34
thinking it should then build the module using gcc 3.4 but on rebuild i get
the same issue. it was working fine not sure when it stopped. ok so the
kernel in the build system is using gcc 3.4 to build the kernel. but
changing the external module makefile still seems to use gcc 3.3 do we need
to change something in the kernel build process so that module building
works? do we need to change gcc to 3.4? any ideas?

When will LD_ASSUME_KERNEL var be phased out?
by Bob Arendt
I'm under the impression that RedHat implemented the LD_ASSUME_KERNEL
environment variable as a clever hack to ease the introduction of the
NPTL-enabled kernel and libs with RedHat 9.
On the other hand, some development shops I'm working with are
(naively?) assuming that LD_ASSUME_KERNEL is a permanent feature that
will allow them to run "properly".
The questions:
- How long will two threading systems be supported via LD_ASSUME_KERNEL?
- Will FC3 (and RHEL4?) also support regression via LD_ASSUME_KERNEL?
Thanks,
-Bob Arendt
