Cairo cross compile
by Giriprasad Deviprasad
Hi All,
I am trying to cross compile GTK+ in hawkboard (www.hawkboard.org). I have already cross compiled the following successfully for hawkboard:
atk fontconfig freetype glib libxml2 pixman
Now when I try to cross compile cairo, configure gives the following error:
configure: error: Cairo requires at least one font backend.
Please install freetype and fontconfig, then try again:
But, I have already installed both freetype and fontconfig for this architecture.
ls -l /opt/asdlab/freetype/lib
total 2640
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2688158 2010-09-03 20:08 libfreetype.a
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 764 2010-09-03 20:08 libfreetype.la
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2010-09-03 20:08 pkgconfig
[root@localhost cairo-1.6.4]# ls -l /opt/asdlab/freetype/include
total 8
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 2010-09-03 20:08 freetype2
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3890 2010-09-03 20:08 ft2build.h
ls -l /opt/asdlab/fontconfig/lib/
total 776
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 778546 2010-09-04 19:28 libfontconfig.a
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 922 2010-09-04 19:28 libfontconfig.la
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2010-09-04 19:28 pkgconfig
Any ideas why cairo is not cross compiling?
Thanks & Regards,

Dear all,
United Institute of Technology (www.uit.ac.in), started in 2009, affiliated
to Anna University, Coimbatore has been completely using F/OSS
for their internal infrastructure
Asterisk / Trixbox for Voice communication
Zimbra for E-mail / Collaborative messaging
Moodle for Learning Management System (

OpenLDAP for authentication
Apart from the above, LinuXpert Systems have setup a 90 seat FOSS lab for
the department of CSE using Fedora-13 (4500+ packages) and they are
about to do all their practicals in GNU/Linux platform.

Small problem with Panel
by Suchakra
I think there's a little problem with the bottom panel in Fedora 13.
The problem occurs when you :
1. Right click bottom panel --> Properties --> Uncheck Expand.
2. Restart System
Symptom : Upon restart, The bottom panel is oriented 'Top' and is
aligned just below the top panel. Also, the Trash and Workspace
Switcher are aligned left in the already unexpanded panel. realigning
and restarting doesn't solve the problem.
If anyone else faces the same issue, respond please.

Packaging "Alice"
by Ankur Sinha
hi,
Just read a mail from the PLUG announcing the meeting on September 4. It
mentioned a teaching software, Alice[1]. A yum search Alice gave me
nothing. Is anyone interested in packaging/maintaining it? I can help
with the packaging/reviewing, but since I'm not into teaching (and will
therefore not be using it), I'm not too interested in maintaining it.
