SB600 ATI controller, USB TakeOver failed
by Ahmed Kamal
Hi list,
I have the unfortunate luck of wanting to install Linux on a Dell optiplex
320. This machine seems to be as anti-linux as they come! Problems faced:
1- Sata disk not recognized
WorkAround: pass pci=nomsi, or all-generic-ide (depending on newer/older
kernel version)
2- Grub does not boot!!
WorkAround: Use lilo
3- Machine doesn't have PS2, only USB keyboard/mouse. USB does not work, the
following errors are generated
ohci_hcd 0000:00:13.2: OHCI Host Controller
ohci_hcd 0000:00:13.2: USB HC TakeOver failed!
ohci_hcd 0000:00:13.2: can't reset
ohci_hcd 0000:00:13.2: init 0000:00:13.2 fail, -1
ohci_hcd: probe of 0000:00:13.2 failed with error -1
I need to install RHEL4 (much better), or an older Fedora (4?). This is
because of the CAD software that will run on this machine. I have not found
any work-arounds for such problem (only one that uses ohci-hcd parameter
no_handshake, which is not understood by 2.6.9 kernel). If anyone is aware
of any un-official kernel patch that solves that issue, kindly let me know.

gcc and PowerPC
by Andy Shevchenko
Hello.
Is it possible to rebuild at least gcc on ppc (NOT ppc64!) architecture?
First of, I found the following lines in the specfile:
%ifarch %{multilib_64_archs} sparc ppc
# Ensure glibc{,-devel} is installed for both multilib arches
BuildRequires: /lib/libc.so.6 /usr/lib/libc.so /lib64/libc.so.6
/usr/lib64/libc.so
%endif
Second, without above requirements the build process is crashed
...
In file included from /usr/include/features.h:351,
from /usr/include/stdio.h:28,
from ../../gcc/tsystem.h:90,
from ../../gcc/crtstuff.c:68:
/usr/include/gnu/stubs.h:9:27: error: gnu/stubs-64.h: No such file or directory
make[4]: *** [64/crtbegin.o] Error 1
make[3]: *** [extra64] Error 2
make[2]: *** [stmp-multilib] Error 2
make[1]: *** [stage1_build] Error 2
make: *** [profiledbootstrap] Error 2
P.S. Speech about current state of the Fedora 7.
And I haven't access to any PowerPC 64bit to use for rebuild some stuff.

Making bugzilla indexable
by Guillaume Chazarain
Hi,
First, sorry if this is the wrong list for this post as the topic is
broader than just Fedora but I could not find a more relevant list in
http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo.
Now, for the actual message. The redhat bugzilla is an invaluable
source of information but it lives in the invisible web as per
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/robots.txt. Keeping web spiders out of
http://bugzilla.redhat.com seems legitimate. But, as bugzilla sends
e-mails each time some content is added, why not sending all of these
mails to a mailing list and making the archives of this mailing list
public and indexable. Or maybe it is already possible to search
bugzilla reports using Google?
IMHO, this would simplify Fedora troubleshooting a lot.
Thanks for your time.

Fedora Rel-Eng Meeting Recap 2007-jul-30
by John Poelstra
Recap and full IRC transcript found here:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/ReleaseEngineering/Meetings/2007-jul-30
Please make corrections and clarifications to the wiki page.
== F8 Test 1 Status ==
* So far, not so good
* https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=F8Test1
* Blocker evaluation
* f13
1. 247863 is not; but I do believe we can find somebody with time to bang out a fix for this in short order. So while not a blocker, I'd really like to see this fixed as it is very visible.
1. 249597 is totally blocker (insta-reboot issue)
1. 249908 (adding extra repo at install time) not a blocker, just a /really/ nice to have.
1. 250047 is fixed with new policy, just need to clicky the buttons
1. 250130 is no pata support on ppc mac minis (potentially more ppc32 hardware).
* going to spin again this evening with the things we've fixed so far and sync that up too
Summary: Decision as to whether we need to slip Fedora 8 Test 1 will be made tomorrow.
== Fedora 8 Test 1 - What to deliver ==
* Release Engineering will produce the following for Fedora 8 Test1
1. Fedora installable spin
* i386
* x86_64
* ppc
* source
1. Fedora {i386,x86_64} Live image
1. KDE {i386,x86_64 Live} image
1. Everything tree will be provided by standard Rawhide ("development") locations

WTF⁈ ShowOnlyIn=GNOME
by Christopher Stone
Why are tons of apps setting ShowOnlyIn=GNOME; in their .desktop file?
This does not bode well for KDE users.
# grep -i onlyshowin /usr/share/applications/*.desktop|grep -i gnome|wc -l
63
Sixty-Three apps which I have installed are only showing up in GNOME!!
What the hell for⁈⁈⁈
Is Fedora *trying* to cripple KDE or what⁈
I dont see a single application using ShowOnlyIn=KDE
