C'è qualuno in Zona Fano che ha voglia di incontrare un potenziale nuovo adepto per fornirgli un bel disco di F12? Versione estesa: Ho ricevuto una mail da questo ragazzo (Davide) che vorrebbe provare Fedora ma è afflitto da digital divide (== no ADSL per scaricare).

Fwd: [Ambassadors] shipping for F12 media in EMEA
by Luca Foppiano 16 Dec '09

maybe... abemus CD. Chi di quelli che vengono a cerea vuole occuparsi di ricevere i CD mi mandi in pvt l'indirizzo o risponda su fedora-ambassadors grazie ciao Luca -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [Ambassadors] shipping for F12 media in EMEA Date: Tue, 15 Dec 2009 10:48:38 -0500 (EST) From: Max Spevack <mspevack(a)redhat.com> Reply-To: fedora-ambassadors-list(a)redhat.com To: fedora-ambassadors-list(a)redhat.com Hi all, The company in Munich is ready to ship out the F12 media, and we need to give them a few addresses. We have 1,500 Desktop Spin Live CDs (32 bit) and 1500 DVDs (32 bit). ***IMPORTANT*** -- I only want to give them 3 or 4 addresses, and break the shipment up to those folks. Then for individual small events, Fedora contributors can re-send a few CDs to Ambassadors and save their receipts either for FAMSCo or for the Fedora EMEA non-profit to reimburse them. I'm thinking of having CDs/DVDs sent to: (1) Frederic Hornian -- who can bring them to FOSDEM (2) Joerg Simon -- who can have some for Chemnitz, and also maybe re-send them to other folks. (3) Italy -- who would want to be the person who hangs on to the media? (4) ????? Is there anyone else who either already knows that they need a bunch of CDs, or who is willing to be a holder of CDs and send them to other folks in EMEA who do need them? I filled that role some of the time last year when I was in Amsterdam, but now that I'm back in Raleigh, I can't mail CDs around Europe anymore :) ***REMEMBER*** -- don't write your address on a public mailing list that is archived forever. Let's just figure out how we're going to break up the shipments, and then collect addresses off-list. Thanks, Max -- Fedora-ambassadors-list mailing list Fedora-ambassadors-list(a)redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-ambassadors-list

Virtualizzazione: qemu-kvm: Uso eccessivo CPU su host
by Dario Lesca 15 Dec '09

15 Dec '09

Ciao a tutti, sul mio notebook con F12x86_64 ho 'yum -y install virtualizzazione' e poi ho installato una macchina virtuale F12x86_64 senza X per fare delle prove come server. Purtroppo però quando la macchina guest è accesa e inattiva (non fa nulla) la macchina host ha sempre la cpu impegnata del 15/25% da qemu-kvm. > PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND > 3584 qemu 20 0 764m 179m 3116 S 19.3 5.9 10:06.45 qemu-kvm Inoltre dopo un po di tempo (più di un ora) che la macchina guest sta li ferma, si mette a usare CPU (circa il 30%) anche ksmd, un altro processo che alla fine mi rallenta l'host senza apparente motivo: > PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND > 32 root 25 5 0 0 0 R 30.1 0.0 39:00.62 ksmd > 3584 qemu 20 0 764m 523m 3116 S 15.9 17.3 31:59.25 qemu-kvm Tutte queste cosa con VMware-server non succedevano. E' normale? Si può fare qualcosa? Perchè, in caso contrario, sarò costretto a ritornare a VMware. Grazie in anticipo a chi potrà rispondermi Ciao -- Dario Lesca <d.lesca(a)solinos.it>

Fwd: [Ambassadors] [Event report] Fedora 12 release Party in Paris (aka Rencontres Fedora 12)
by Luca Foppiano 14 Dec '09

14 Dec '09

Ecco da chi imparare... -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [Ambassadors] [Event report] Fedora 12 release Party in Paris (aka Rencontres Fedora 12) Date: Mon, 14 Dec 2009 12:09:26 +0100 From: Mathieu Bridon (bochecha) <bochecha(a)fedoraproject.org> Reply-To: fedora-ambassadors-list(a)redhat.com To: fedora-ambassadors-list(a)redhat.com Hi fellow ambassadors, This week-end, we had our Fedora 12 release party in Paris (Fedora 12 on the 12/12 :) at the Cité des Sciences, a french establishment for promoting everything about science and technical stuff, and making it accessible to everyone. The event ran over 2 days, with several conferences and workshops. Here is the agenda : == Saturday == === Conferences === 14:00 - The Fedora Project, by Thomas Canniot (Fedora ambassador, member of FAmSCo and treasurer of the Fedora-Fr NPO) 15:00 - Cobbler and Puppet, by William Hoffmann (Red Hat engineer and trainer) 16:00 - Sugar, by Sean Daly (marketing coordinator of the Sugar Labs) 17:00 - The Mozilla community and the web, by Grégoire Coustenoble (Mozilla contributor) === Workshops === 14:30 - Linux administration, by Michael Scherer (Mandriva contributor) and me 15:30 - Discover Fedora, by Tom Dubin (Fedora ambassador) and Alexandre Frandemiche (Fedora-Fr contributor, leader of the french version of Fedora package of the day) 16:30 - A bit of both the first workshops, depending on visitors questions == Sunday == === Conferences === 14:00 - OpenMoko, by Michael Scherer (Mandriva contributor) 15:00 - Translating Fedora, by Thomas Canniot (Fedora ambassador, member of FAmSCo and treasurer of the Fedora-Fr NPO) and Pablo Martin-Gomez (Fedora ambassadors, leader of the fr Fedora translation team) => this session lasted longer than planned because attendees had a lot of question, so Michale Scherer decided to let it run and cancel his next conference 16:00 - Fight Internet censorship with Tor, by Michael Scherer (Mandriva contributor) => Michael decided to cancel his talk as the public was interacting very well with Thomas about the previous session === Workshops === 14:30 - Discover Fedora, by Tom Dubin (Fedora ambassador) and Alexandre Frandemiche (Fedora-Fr contributor, leader of the french version of Fedora package of the day) 15:30 - Linux administration, by me Also, members of the JeuxLinux.fr team (a french LUG dedicated to video games on Linux) was present for both days, and were doing some kind of a permanent "come and play with us" session. All the conferences were filmed, and we hope to be able to distribute the videos (in french unfortunately for most of you on this list) shortly and obviously under a free content license. ---------- All in all, the event ran pretty well (even if very tiring :). We had around 100 visitors (I honestly didn't count, but that should be an accurate estimation), and we helped several people install Fedora or solve the problems they were having. We distributed lots of the Fedora 12 CDs we had made, sold t-shirts and live USBs (Fedora branded USB sticks). We also printed a translated version of the one page release notes that visitors seemed to appreciate pretty much. Cédric, a member of the Fedora-Fr community that we had never heard of before stepped up to join us and be our reporter to cover the event as a film report with hand-held camera. He interviewed people, moved around the event and filmed backstage. We hope to have the finished movie pretty soon. This was a very nice surprise to us, and we hope he will continue to participate in Fedora (at least we want to encourage him :). Of course, the event wouldn't have been such a success without the participation of all the attendees that I didn't already mention above: - Armel Kermorvant (Fedora ambassador and president of the Fedora-Fr NPO) - Pierre-Yves Chibon (Fedora ambassador and packager, Fedora-Fr.org administrator and vice-president of the Fedora-Fr NPO) - Carlos Vassalo (Fedora ambassador, vice-treasurer of the Fedora-Fr NPO and human front-end to the LiveUSB-Creator tool :) - Nicolas Chauvet (Fedora ambassador, rock-star packager and board member of the Fedora-Fr NPO) - Maxime Carron (Fedora ambassador and secretary of the Fedora-Fr NPO) - Xavier Lamien (member of the Fedora Packaging Committee and the Fedora Infrastructure team) - Mohamed El Morabity (Fedora ambassador and Fedora-Fr.org ubiquitous user support) - Emmanuel Seyman, Paul Marques-Mota and Sabine Herbin (board members of the Parisian LUG) - Olivier Fraysse (board member of the Ubuntu-Fr NPO) who really helped us rounding the edges related to the logistics with the Cité des Sciences - and all the others who I inevitably forgot as my memory left me along with my mental sanity somewhere around 4:00 am on Sunday :) We're already eagerly looking forward to organizing the next one. Best regards, ---------- Mathieu Bridon (bochecha) -- Fedora-ambassadors-list mailing list Fedora-ambassadors-list(a)redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-ambassadors-list

fedoraproject.it atto secondo
by Giuseppe Coviello 09 Dec '09

09 Dec '09

Comincio un nuovo thread sperando di seppellire veleni e dissapori (uhm forse la locuzione "seppellire veleni" non è del tutto felice). Avendo letto e riletto il log del meeting ciò che mi è chiaro è il disegno di massima del nascente fedoraproject.it: un aggregatore di blog dei vari ambassador, contributori, chipiùnehapiùnemetta italiani con annesso un forum e una mailinglist in un qualche modo cercando di integrare le due cose. Ciò che non è chiaro è come realizzare questo, qualche proposta c'è stata (wordpress, phpbb, mail2forum), tuttavia non se ne è parlato in modo esaustivo, e neanche si è giunti ad una decisione. I problemi ancora aperti, quindi, a mio avviso sono la scelta della piattaforma software e dell'hosting necessario. Lancio l'idea che ognuno proponga ciò che gli sembri più giusto in termini di software e di hosting, e ne faccia anche un minimo di analisi di fattibilità. Inoltre invito chi può e vuole a dare la propria disponibilità per lo sviluppo e il mantenimento di fedoraproject.it (contenuti, amministrazione, grafica e così via). La mia proposta è quella di utilizzare come software il già citato GroupServer che sembra essere quasi fatto apposta per progetti come il nostro. Come hosting propongo di utilizzare il nascente OpenSourceLab@UniParthenope. Do' la mia disponibilità ad installare e manutenere la piattaforma software. Se ho sbagliato o ho omesso qualcosa vi prego di correggermi. La pace sia con voi, Giuseppe
