Problem with My Compaq Presario 1030
by Poonchezhian P.
Hi,
I have a compaq presario 1030 PIV model Machine which came with Turbolinux 10 Preloaded. When I try to install
Fedora core 2 in it, the machine is reset after the boot prompt. It occurs even after changing the CD-Drive that came with the
machine. Have anyone faced this problem ?? Cud you please suggest some solution for this problem ??
Regards,

USB devices have moved in FC2?
by Kontogiannis Theophanis
Hi all,
I have a USB modem that in all previous releases was attached to
/dev/input/ttyACM0
now FC2 (no changes or updates - as it ships with 4 CDs) keeps on giving:
May 29 16:56:44 gw pppd[10694]: Failed to open /dev/input/ttyACM0: No such
device or address
I get

It's not a reproducible bug.
All FC2 Test X have this bug and the final release also.

Re: ASUS S5200N s3 sleep success with 2.6.6-1.397
by Matthew Faull
It appears I spoke too soon. After waking from sleep the laptop seems to
run fine. Sound seems to still work. Mouse is fine. (No floppy or cd rom
on this laptop). However over the following 15 minutes or so the devices
seem to die. (Some sorta death spiral) First the sound disappears, then
the usb mouse disappears (but I can still use the touch pad). Then the
network interface disappears. Then shortly after that the whole machine
locks up. Will report back after I do some more testing with loading and
unloading modules before and after putting it to sleep, and post any
error/warning/ etc logs if they look interesting. Cheers Matt

How about sound? On Acer TM230 I found that after a resume
any attempt to play whatsoever repeats roughly the first second
of a sound in an infinite loop. An output of 'lspci -vv' before
and after sleeping does not show any differences.
This on the top of an inaccessible floppy which I mentioned
before. Not the end of the world but somewhat unsatisfactory.

kernel 2.6.6
by Law Horne
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

Re: Xine seems to have lost it's sound!
by t l
I've succeeded in 'un-wedging' the sound by running the 'System Settings->Soundcard Detection' app.
After running this, sound works again.
If this doesn't work, try running 'alsamixer' command. Make sure the appropriate settings are turned on.
You may need to run 'Soundcard Detection' after this....
Don't know why this works for me....

Hi,
Any ideas on this one. I was halfway through playing an mpeg when the
sound died on Xine. Not even a restart of the app would bring it back to
life.
I'm using ALSA, so there shouldn't be a problem with xmms being on. I
killed it anyway, restarted Xine and still no sound.
Any ideas?

ASUS S5200N s3 sleep success with 2.6.6-1.397
by Matthew Faull
The s3 sleep mode on my laptop now appears to work perfectly.
I am using this kernel 2.6.6-1.397
with the patch referenced in this bugzilla entry:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=121760
and unloading the ehci_hcd module, before initiating the sleep.
I'm also using the following kernel parameter: acpi_sleep=s3_bios
and use this command to put the machine to sleep: "echo 3bios >
/proc/acpi/sleep"
(From a recent posting on this list)
It seems to still work fine if I unplug and re-plug my usb mouse into
the machine at different parts of the sleep process(this used to make
the machine freeze or the usb interface couldn't be re-awakened on some
other recent kernels)
Network interface also comes back to life again nicely.
Thanks people
Cheers

Re: pppd problem again????
by Kontogiannis Theophanis
I did try to recompile the pppd-2.4.2 but it did not make any difference.
(by the way pppd shipping with FC2 by default has filter enabled / compiled
in)
2.4.1 does not compile. It needs a patch for net/bpf.h that is not available
in the 2.4.1 tar ball. Available on 2.4.2.
The kernel shipping by default with FC2 (2.6.5) has PPP_FILTER enabled by
default.
I said that the problem must have something to do with the new kernel (!!!)
compared to FC1 (2.4 kernel) where the filter worked just fine.
Well this is were my knowledge on programming stops.
If anyone could help more on that it would be really helpfull.
