so then, what is the update process for FC2 test1?
by Eric Wilson
OK, I've always been fairly conservative when it comes to testing new
releases, but I'm dieing to try the 2.6 kernel, so I'm new to this test
process.
So, I've pulled down FC 2 test 1, and I'm having the same problems
everyone else is. Too, up2date fails in the same manner listed in the
lists.
I want to think I've been a good steward and a fairly cluey admin. I've
looked at the mailing lists and what docs I could find. I've seen several
threads about up2date and whether or not it should be used on FC2 test 1,
but I don't recall anything definitive.
I don't really have a clear picture of the process for updating these
test1 packages with their fixes.
Can someone point me to the doc for it?
Cheers;
E!

Upgraded to FC2T1
by Freddy
I upgraded from fedora core 1 to core 2 test 2 and so for things have been going ok. The first problem I hit though was, it would not start anaconda with my cisco aironet 350 inserted (this is a laptop). Taking it out allowed me to do the upgrade, which took about 3 hours... Is that normal? The update removed the kernels that came with core 1, but left me my custom compiled kernel, which still boots up fine, except it doesn't start my pcmcia. With the 2.6.1-1.65 kernel that came with it, nothing worked, except 3d, which I was impressed with. I have a Dell Latitude C400 which I am doing this on, and so far so good, core 2 looks pretty cool. I'm trying to update with up2date right now, but it seems to have frozen on "Fetching rpm header: ORBit-devel-0.5.17-11.4" but anyway, it's looking good. I'll try to get everything else to work now...

Fedora Bug Day Tomorrow: Feb 25th 2004: Eat bugs before the bugs eat you
by Jef Spaleta
What: Fedora Bug Day: making bugzilla cry uncle
Tomorrow is a general effort to triage Fedora Core bugs, I'm sure there
are some bugs against the fc2 test release that can use a group hug from
community triaging, a hug or a baseball bat in the form of a well
crafted patch. Interested in helping out trying to close bug reports out
or marking them up, show up on the #fedora-bugs irc channel tomorrow,
and get you feet wet in the triage discussions,
And if wading into Fedora Core's bugzilla looking for bugreports to try
to help close, isn't you cup of tea, you might find helping with the
fedora.us addon package QA process is something you want to start
getting involved in. 330+ packages waiting for peer review in the QA que
( http://www.fedora.us/QA ). If you are interested in helping out with
that fedora.us QA effort, but don't really know how to get started, pick
a package in that list you like, and drop in on the irc channel and
hopefully someone an find some time to answer your questions about how
you go about helping out with QA.
I'm feeling bad about not having enough time to be around last week,
so I have deliberately broken the equipment I'm responsible for at work,
so that I can have enough time tomorrow to shepherd the volunteers for a
Fedora Bug Day. Well, i didn't really deliberately break the equipment.
It's sort of their fault for tying me to my desk with a critical high
voltage power cable not expecting me to chew through it to get to the
coffee machine. Anyways...
When: Feb 25th, starting at 14:00 UTC (09:00 EST),
Where: #fedora-bugs channel on freenode irc network
Who: Pretty much everyone. If you have a little time to spare, and want to
help make it easier for the developers by helping organize the untamed
sea of bugreports in bugzilla, then triage just might be for you. You
don't need to code(though if you can, patch submissions are always
welcome), you just need a web browser and an account at bugzilla.redhat.
com. An irc client or email client would help too...since you probably
want to try to communicate to the other triagers either on irc on the
fedora-bugs channel at freenode, or in the mailinglist at duke.

Huh: No Clue What I'm talking about when I say the phrase Fedora Triage?
Take a quick look at the fedora-triage-list archives:

detail:

system-config-httpd doesn't work (bugzilla #116772)
by G.Wolfe Woodbury
I reported previously that system-config-httpd didn't seem to be
working. I did a fresh install from a development mirror and the
problem is still there.
An examination of the "messages" log shows that the consolehelper is
still trying to access "redhat-config-http" instead of
"system-config-httpd" when running.
Someone overlooked something simple in the configuration tables for
console helper is what it looks like.

Wierdness with Internet
by Eric Ebert
I'm currently running a box with Fedora Core 2 Test 1 on it. I have something that is
very odd going on when I'm surfing the web. When I try to get to certain web sites (i.e.
www.music123.com or www.riemans.com) they always time out. However, when I go to these
sites on my laptop running windows XP they work fine. The really strange part is that my
linux box is doing IP Masquerade for my XP laptop. Anyone have any thoughts on this
because I haven't gotten beyond the fact that it is strange.

RPM update to 86_64
by David McCormick
I have seen several messages that say to get 32 bit programs to work on
64 bit to recompile the RPM's. I can't find where to look for the
information on how to do this. Can someone point me in the right
direction? Also has any one gotten Netscape to work on 64 bit? It gave
me an error that it needed a lib that was not on the disc's.

smbmnt error in FC2
by Bart Kalita
I've been trying to mount windows NTFS shares on FC2 in original
test 1 Kernel and with the newest one , 2.6.3-1.100 and the error I
get in shell and in webmin is as follows:
ERROR: smbfs file system not supported by kernel
Please refer to smbmnt (8) manual page
smbmnt failes 255
I can stil create shares that are seen from windows machines. I was able
to create and link to shares form Linux to windows via webmin in all
previous linux'es I've used namely RH8, RH9, FC1 - all tests and final.
Am I missing something? is that kernel feature off due to testing or ...?
TIA
