Greetings, I have seen on Ati site that they only support xfree86 does this driver work in xorg ? My Ati card is : ATI Technologies Inc RV350 [Mobility Radeon 9600 M10] The driver? fglrx-4.3.0-3.12.0.i386.rpm It complains: root@chadlap fedora]# rpm -ivh fglrx-4.3.0-3.12.0.i386.rpm Preparing... ########################################### [100%] file /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so.1.2 from install of fglrx-4.3.0-3.12.0 conflicts with file from package xorg-x11-Mesa-libGL-6.7.0-2 Any ideas as where I can get a driver?

nautilus & sound in FC2
by M.Hockings 01 Oct '04

01 Oct '04

I have scrounged around a bit in the archives but don't see any hits on this but I am sure there must be a solution. I have moved two machines to FC2, one (an IBM PC300PL) was an upgrade from FC1 and the other (an old Aptiva) I formatted the disk and did a clean install. I have similar problems on both in that the file explorer tool (is that Nautilus?) is acting like an old Window 95 tool such that it lacks the tree on the left of the window and opens a new window with each directory you open. I don't see any setting in it to change this and make the operation like it was in FC1. What am I overlooking? My second questions is why does sound no longer seem to work. On both machines now (where sound was working in FC1 with no help just fine) the soundcard detection tool reports none found. Any thoughts on either of these anomalies? If I didn't know better I would have thought that FC2 was previous version of FC1... Mike

FC2, postfix, cyrus-imapd virtual domain doc
by James Bourne 01 Oct '04

01 Oct '04

re all, I've put up a short doc on setting up virtual domains using postfix and cyrus-imapd under FC2 at http://www.lnxsys.ca/docs/postfix-cyrus-FC2/ I wrote this as I couldn't find any single source that noted the setup of completely virtual domains. You will need to know a few things about setup under FC2 already, but it contains fixes for a couple of gotchas that slowed down the setup process. Anyone is welcome to email me comments and corrections on this and of course use it for setting up your own stuff.

mount issue on FC2.B (no CD, DVD, usb camera)
by Jean-Patrick Pommier 01 Oct '04

01 Oct '04

Dear all, I installed a fedora FC2.B from DVD. After installation, it is impossible to mount an amovible device (CD, DVD, usb camera). When I try to mount a DVD (from KDE or gnome), I get ... n'est pas un périphérique valide de type bloc (not a valid block device...) After some googling I tried: "dmesg | grep hd" which gave Kernel command line : no root=LABEL /hdc=ide-scsi rhgb hdc slimtype COMBO LSC-24082, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive So I tried "mount /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom", result: /dev/hdc n'est pas un périphérique valide de type bloc In fstab, there is /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom cdf, iso 9660 noauto, owner, kudzu, ro 00 kudzu detects (from /etc/sysconfig/hwconf): CDROM desc slimtype COMBO LSC-24082K bus SCSI device scd0 driver ignore host 0 channel 0 lun 0 generic sg0 So I tried "mount /dev/scd0 /mnt/cdrom" result ... "/dev/scd0 n'est pas un périphérique valide de type bloc" Let see the modules : "/sbin/lsmod" gave (at least): scsi-mod uhci-hcd I also tried "eject /dev/sr0",It doesn't eject anything I have also been told to try "cd /dev" and "./MAKEDEV". I get a message regarding the correct way to use MAKEDEV ... The config: laptop PCTeck dual boot XP/fedora FC2.B (kernel 2.6.6) chipset VIA, CPU nehemia 1GHz, GPU VIA CLE266 DVD/CDRW slimtype COMBO LSC-24082K Any advice? *A simple way to fix the stuff *Reinstalling FC1 + upgrading everything but Kernel 2.4? *Back to FC1? (It works) *Waiting FC3? Thank you PS No sound too. -- http://www.bioinformatics.org/dip4fish

SCSI installations
by Stuart Lamble 01 Oct '04

01 Oct '04

Hello FC Users Can anyone tell me the correct procedure to installing FC2 on SCSI disks? When I try run the install off cd, the machine just hangs. Do I need to parse any special boot: parameters to tell FC about SCSI? Thanks Stuart --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

NFS mounting... bypass portmap
by Dan Vietor 01 Oct '04

01 Oct '04

I am trying to mount a NFS partition across a router that has port 111 (TCP) blocked. In Fedora 1 and other RedHat releases, I could use the mountport=### in the mount options to bypass portmap and mount the partition. In Fedora 2, this option seems to be disabled. When I use ethereal to check what's going on, I see a TCP request to sunrpc (port 111 or portmap) and a return from the router "ICMP no route to host" and then the mount fails. It actually backgrounds the mount process and hangs there. Is there any way with the FC2 mount command to bypass the portmapper and specify the port that mountd is running on so I can mount the partition? -- ________________________________________________________ Daniel Vietor Mail: devo(a)ks.unisys.com Unisys Corp Title: Engineer/Meteorologist 221 Gale Lane Phone: 610-925-5206 Kennett Square PA 19348 Fax: 610-925-5215

does FC2 support NTFS ?
by Kali 30 Sep '04

30 Sep '04

hi all, does FC2 support NTFS ? i want to acess the windows 'D' drive {i can access 'C" using the mount command but not my backup partition D drive} which is currently on another Hard disk using a SATA Intel Motherboard. FC2 is in the old HD. {{ Btw, windows has crashed (not surprising at all) and hence the long route }} Second problem is that the mozilla browser has also gone kaput and does not load. How do i set it right ? Please be kind as i am quet new to the *nix world :-) thanks for your time, Kali

Text Editor
by Thomas E Dukes 30 Sep '04

Hello, I was wondering if there is a text editor equivalent to TextPad for Windows. What I'm looking for is the ability to search for a word or phrase in a directory of files. TIA
