latest vnc missing vnc.so
by Paul Iadonisi 31 May '04

31 May '04

The latest vnc server package, vnc-server-4.0-1.beta5.4, is missing the vnc.so module. Should this be filed as a separate bug, or as a comment added to http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=119530 ? -- -Paul Iadonisi Senior System Administrator Red Hat Certified Engineer / Local Linux Lobbyist Ever see a penguin fly? -- Try Linux.

Firewire by Oliva revisted

Ok, have the drivers installed via README from http://www.ic.unicamp.br/~oliva/snapshots/FC2-firewire/0README Section 2.1 However, rebooting this kernel 2.6.6-1.403 and running modprobe ohci1394 and sbp2 (mind you it's detected at kernel boot), and running sh ./rescan-scsi-bus.sh changes absolutely nothing. My external Firewire BUSLink 48x12x48 drive is still not detected. lsmod shows: sbp2 18184 0 ohci1394 26392 0 ieee1394 278964 2 sbp2,ohci1394 and lspci -v shows: 02:09.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Texas Instruments TSB12LV26 IEEE-1394 Controller (Link) (prog-if 10 [OHCI]) Subsystem: Procomp Informatics Ltd: Unknown device 8010 Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 11 Memory at feafb800 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) Memory at feaf4000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K] Capabilities: [44] Power Management version 1 However I can go back to my good old kernel 2.6.1-1.65smp and my Firewire drive is detected under Xcdroast-0.98alpha15-2 and works even. :) I'm afraid we're still looking for some patch upstream maybe by kernel 2.6.7 or 2.6.8 or something like 2.7 or maybe never :) RaXeT

Recieved journal commit failure running 2.6.6-1.381 System now fails to boot "mkrootdev: label / not found". Can get further into the boot process using "kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.6-1.381 ro root=/dev/hda5 rhgb quiet" but this only gets me to : EXT3-fs: hda7: couldn't mount because of unsupported optional features (1000100)." <- not sure what they might be. mount: error 22 mounting ext3 I have been trying to get into rescue mode via network (ftp/nfs) but anaconda responds with: ====== Running anaconda, the Fedora Core rescue mode - please wait... File "/usr/bin/anaconda", line 913 xsetup_failed = xserver.startXServer(videohw, monitorhw, mousehw, kbd, ^ IndentationError: unindent does not match any other indentation level install exited abnormally ======= Is their a way I can get this system back to get a better look at logs etc. Where should I be looking for recovery doco etc. Cheers in advance Rodney

[ANNOUNCE] Build-1.91 (Code Name Wombat)
by Tom Callaway 31 May '04

31 May '04

Hi folks, As promised, the first Fedora Core 2 based tree of Aurora SPARC Linux is now available. Like I've previously said, its not an installable tree (this means, no ISOs). We'll get there eventually, this is just something so that people can get a baseline upgrade. Now, I have yumified the tree, so if you're feeling really brave, you can always point yum at it, and try to upgrade that way. A version of yum for Aurora 1.0 is here: http://linux.duke.edu/projects/yum/download/1.0/yum-1.0.3-1_73.noarch.rpm If you're a listed mirror site, please sync the build-1.91 directory, and chime in. The primary directory is currently at: ftp://auroralinux.org/pub/aurora/build-1.91/ Now, for the known bugs: After tearing my hair out for a week or so, I came to the conclusion (backed by several other people trying to do the same thing for other distributions) that SILO 1.4.* is completely broken. Build 1.91 uses SILO 1.3.2 which should work fine. If it doesn't, let me know. The sparc32 kernel in the tree has known issues with sun4c. If you're interested in helping to troubleshoot these issues, email me offlist, otherwise, be forewarned. :) system-config-display doesn't work right. Me and Peter fixed it yesterday, though, so there's no need to file bugs on it. I know the package revisions don't quite match up to FC2 final. Next tree should be a lot closer. Any other bugs that you find? Please either email me or file them in bugzilla.auroralinux.org, under Corona. Thanks for your continued patience, ~spot --- Tom "spot" Callaway <tcallawa(a)redhat*com> LCA, RHCE Red Hat Sales Engineer || Aurora SPARC Linux Project Leader "If you are going through hell, keep going." - Sir Winston Churchill

Message: 3 Date: Sun, 30 May 2004 13:29:50 -0500 From: Law Horne <zimhat(a)foou.net> Subject: kernel 2.6.6 To: fedora-test-list(a)redhat.com Message-ID: <40BA281E.7040303(a)foou.net> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed I have had trouble getting the 2.6.6 kernels from Arjan's repo to work with my nic. I'm useing the nforce2 ethernet controller. I have even tried the latest(403) out of Arjan's repo. And it worked the first time. I thought I was safe but ever boot after that it cannot ping my router. I have not had a problem with the 2.6.5 kernels at all. I'm not sure what to do to trouble shoot this. And it does not appear that anyone else is having the same problem. I have posted my boot log before but did not get a response. If someone could point me in the direction of what might be needed to resolve this issue I would appreciate it. Thanks Law _______________________________________________________________________ I have had the same problem with the nforce based motherboards. The one thing that I tried was to turn off kudzu and it seems to work. I can connect to the internet and the internal network. Mike
