Re: More bugs on Final Version!

powernow_k8:
Well It seems to work on x86 and not on x86_64...
Actually check out to see that in kernel .config it does not seem to be
checked...
also make xconfig does not work only make menuconfig seems to be ok...
but then you can't compile the kernel right since it exits with errors...
I'm confused...
I would not bother siunce everything else works but iI noticed the
following:
I downloaded on fc3_64 the ffmpeg,mplayer etc packages and I compile it
for my AMD64.
I got 65fps of lavc mpeg4 codec...
Now on fedora core 4 I can't compile anything so I got the rpms x86_64
for the same packages and now I'm getting for the same DVD only 35...
thats as slow as my old amd 2600+ ...

Yum question (and maybe a Xen one too)
by Tony Jones
I was using yum to track rawhide (mostly for Xen). I was snoozing and didn't
realise that FC4 had been released (duh) and my last yum upgrade sucked down
a bunch of FC5 stuff.
Is there any way to back this out and get yum to upgrade me onto the FC4 path
or do I have to just go and install FC4 and then go back to yum?
Curious, What is the status of Xen is for FC5? I noticed there was no Xen
kernel for the latest kernel-2.6.11-1.1381_FC5 and I don't see any Xen
symbols in it's system.map
Thanks

Not out of the box! I have the same card and just looked for it... It's
not there. I would like to get it working also, I just don't have the
time to look it up now.

More bugs on Final Version!
by James Black
Although had been pointed out before this bug still exists in final
version!!!
1) Installing FC4 64 with reiserfs system the system fails to boot since
it' can't mount the root fs!!!
2) I own an AMD 64bit 3200+ the gnome applet that show the cpu speed
complains that it can not manage the cpu speed so my cpu is stack at
2Ghz even when cpu time is 0%. Cool and quiet which was WORKING on fc4
rc3 use to slow down my cpu at 800Mhz when cpu load was low and the
gnome applet worked fine!
3) XMMS is missing! Nice... who needs the famous xmms??
4) my favorite editor jed is missing... nice Now I have to turn to vi???
and more to come as I look in to it the following days!!!
Anyway it still mych better then FC3!!!

Re: More bugs on Final Version!

In x86_64 bit fc4 version and for all AMD 64 owners : it seems that the
powernow_k8 module has not been compiled in the kernel and it does not
work!!! or so it seems since I can't locate it modprobe it, or anything
it seems that the kernel needs to be reconfigured and rebuild...
I 'm downloading the sources now...
But please answer to this:
Is it a fact that the fc4 kernel doesnot support powernow_k8 cool and
quiet???
I now that in fc4 rc3 the module did exist and the powernow (cool&quiet)
worked perfectly!!!
Thainks again

I've had a separate /u file system going back to SCO Xenix.
I keep a tree in /u with copies of /etc/hosts at al.
I also have an "upgrade check list" for things to do for
upgrading *x releases -- double backups juat in case,
and all that.
Which gets back to my original, unanswered question: is there
a Linux counterpart to the SCO Unix programs that store and
reinstall the users' ACCOUNT INFORMATION? Saving /etc/passwd
doesn't quite cut it anymore.

Problems With Installing LimeWire
by Jeffrey D. Yuille
Hello,
I have been trying to install LimeWire 4.8.1 on FC4 and had first
tried to install jre-1_5, only to receive an error stating that
java-1_4_2-gcj-compat is need first. I tried to install this, only to
receive an error message that the same (java-1_4_2-gcj-compat) is
already installed. I'm guessing that this is a problem with Java,
however, I had successfully installed jre-1_5 in FC4t3 but am now unable
to do so. Is there a reason for this? I tried to install J2re-1_4_2
and did so successfully. However, when I click on LimeWire, I receive
an error message stating that it cannot connect to the internet. How do
I resolve this and is anyone else coming up with the same problem? Any
help would be greatly appreciated.
