FC2-t1 exhibits long delay on LVM setup
by Ben Steeves
I just installed a FC2 Test 1 system and applied all of the days
patches. When the machine boots, it sits at teh "Setting up Logical
Volume Management" phase for a very long time (about 5 minutes). After
this delay, the message "setlocale failed" is printed and boot continues
normally. The filesystems all appear to work correctly.
Is anyone else seeing odd LVM behaviour?

VMWARE ethernet + sound
by Clete Blackwell 2
Hi,
I'm testing out Fedora Core 2 Test 1 with VMWARE 4. I cannot seem to get networking or sound working in the enviorment. Could someone point me to anything or the right card set to use in the internet connection settings thing? Also, I use DHCP.
My REAL card (I doubt it matters) is a SOHOware 10/100 card and a turtle beach: santa cruz. I have tried VMWARE's different kinds of networking, none of them working.
Sorry if I already sent this, I never got a confirmation mail and I didn't get it as well, so I'm resending. (Hey mods, I sent it under the wrong address, so it was held. If you read this, deny the last 2 :)).

by Neal Becker
This is after a clean install of FC2Test1:
/sbin/vgdisplay
vgdisplay -- ERROR: "/etc/lvmtab" doesn't exist; please run vgscan
[root@rpppc1 nbecker]# /sbin/vgscan
vgscan -- LVM driver/module not loaded?
I'm just trying to display properties of my lvms.

[kde fcore2] Konquerorbookmarks and edit bookmarks
by Harry Putnam
I'm probably blind as a bat but I don't see a way to edit a bookmark
in Konqueror. There is the `edit bookmarks' on the bookmarks menu
but once there I don't see a way to actually edit an individual
bookmark other than change its name or delete cut copy, but no way to
change its characteristics or properties.
Someone tell me I'm blind please but also provide the needed light :)

coreutils and util-linux
by Gene C.
The latest updates for FC2-T1 (from development) for the coreutils and
util-linux packages have problems. These packages need to be installed
together. Because of the version-release of the util-linux package in the
base being 2.12pre-3 and the update being 2.12-4, both up2date and rpm
consider that the old package is newer.
To get around this, you need to manually download the updated
util-linux-2.12-4 package (and the coreutils-5.2.0-8 package if you do not
have it) and then use rpm -Uvh --force util... coreutils...

hpoj difficulties in FC2-test1 (and FC1)
by Steve Ward
I've seen some posts about problems with scanning under test1, and I
think I understand what's going on. In the startup scripts in
/etc/rc.d, hpoj is being started after CUPS. From the hpoj
documentation, it appears to me the opposite order is required. This is
so the hpoj printer port is available when CUPS starts.
On my system I have simply renamed all the S55cups files to S60cups and
things seem to work OK. I have also done this on my FC1 system (which
is running the kernel.org 2.6.3 kernel) and printing, scanning and card
readers on my PSC2210 are working fine.

Apt-get downloading packages
by jim tate
Fedora core Test1.
Apt-get upgrade , downdloaded a number of RPM packages from
freshrpms.us.net/development
and put them in the /var/cache/apt/archive and they are later versions
than installed .
Why can't I rpm -Uvh *.rpm those packages? Apt-get comes back with
something about
"Unsigned /var/cache/apt/archive (for all the packages) what gives, Am I
of the understanding
that you just can't upgrade Fedora Test1 core?
Thanks

NFS fails due to remove_locks_posix in kernel 2.6.3-1.116
by G.Wolfe Woodbury
If bugzilla'd this, but the latest kernel build won't run the current
NFSds due to a missing kernel symbol in the NFS modules.
I've had to drop back to the custom 2.6.3-1.110 that I've been using.
