filelight-4.7.90-1 in f16/kde-unstable
by Rex Dieter
Seems I inadvertantly introduced an epoch with in filelight-4.7.90-1,
which was flagged during a reviewing this package for inclusion in fedora.
In the meantime, I've filelight passed review and imported into fedora
without the epoch as filelight-4.7.90-2. I rebuilt this and put into
kde-unstable too.
I mention all this because the removal of epoch means for those of you
using the f16 kde-unstable repo, upgrading the package away from -1
requires manual intervention.
My suggestion would be something like:
(make sure you're current):
yum update
then,
yum distro-sync filelight

Session Restore
by Ed Greshko
Weird, yet minor, problem.... But still want to find a reason/fix.
Running a fully updated F16 system and KDE (of course). If I log out of
a session most applications are restored on log in. I know there are
some exceptions and that isn't the issue.
I have 6 desktops and if I log out while in Desktop 2, I would expect to
be back at Desktop 2 when I login. But, no matter what, I always find
myself back in Desktop 1. I have "Different widgets for each desktop"
defined. However, I've not been able to reproduce the failure on a VM.
Dang....
So, does anyone have a suggestion as to how to figure out what is
preventing what should be the expected behavior?

When yum finds a broken package
by Anne Wilson
Running an update (F14 - yes, I know about EOL) I found that there is a
problem with AdobeReader_enu. I excluded it to get the rest of the
updates, then intended to remove it and install the latest version. The
removal failed with
Error in PREUN scriptlet in rpm package AdobeReader_enu
I know this isn't a Fedora issue, really, but can someone tell me what I
need to do to get rid of this broken package?

Device Notifier and NFS
by Ed Greshko
I have 2 NFS mounted file systems that show up in Device Notifier with
the option to open with file manager. This on an F16 system.
Is there a way to disable these showing in the Notifier?

Device Notifier finally tamed
by Claude Jones
There were an unusual number of updates today including what appeared to
be most, if not all, of the KDE packages. Device Notifier is no longer
popping up every few minutes, and I see that all the drives on the
network that were appearing are no longer listed. Thanks for that fix.
Now, if you could just get KMail to heel...

Packaging Razor-Qt

Hi
Thought someone here might be interested in packaging this

based on Qt technologies. It has been tailored for users who value
simplicity, speed, and intuitive interface. Unlike desktop environments,
Razor-qt also works fine with weak machines."
