Re: Help with installation
by Simon Slater
The mouse problem posted earlier this morning (yawn) has fixed itself. After
booting this morning it is working fine. I just need to find what that
third button is for.
Thanks again

Belkin F5D6051 WLAN 11b USB card
by Amy M
A friend of mine told me that the Belkin F5D6051 WLAN 11b USB card
should now work with the 2.6.10 kernel.
Does any one have any first hand experience about this very exciting
development?! Thanks a whole lot.
(I used to be a loyal Linksys customer, but recently it seems to be
engaged in some kind of efforts to avoid Linux.)

Try downloading the ISO file and checking the md5sum before you burn the
ISO image. That will help you rule out download vs. CD burning
problems. If the downloaded file is corrupted, the CD will certainly be
bad.
I assume you know what you need to burn a good CD, because you were
successful with the other images. But, if your download is good, search
the archives about booting with 'ide=nodma' as a boot option. I found
that even though CD#2 was good, it would fail mediacheck without turning
off DMA access to the CD drive. I don't know the details, but the
archives will tell the story.
It is possible that you have good CDs after all, check at each step to
make sure. Good luck. Erik

Firefox FTP problem
by Helena Carlsson
Hi
Maybe it is not the proper mail-list for this
question, but I am asking it because Firefox is
releasing with FC3. Firefox can not login and browse a
FTP server. When I enter ftp address in firefox's
address bar it just says Begining FTP transaction...
and then a window appears: 530 login incorrect. Any
help ?

state of eclipse gcj gtk swt efforts ?
by Skunk Worx
I've heard that RedHat has a native compiled (non-JVM) version of the
eclipse IDE in the works?
Also there is some kind of project underfoot implementing the "swt" (I
think this is IBM's answer to Swing) as a wrapper around the gtk widgets?
Also there appears to be a code performance profiler and an rpm package
builder released as plugins for eclipse...for the "CDT" package.
Finally there are musings that this will all come together and be
released under yum for fedora...at some point.
So, what is the skinny? Is there any roadmap published anywhere
regarding when these tools will become available and what capabilities
are planned?
Thanks,
John

Reinstalled Windows & Grub, but windows wont boot... help!
by Andrew Konosky
I reformatted my windows 98 C: drive (/dev/hda1) and installed WinXP,
and of course it overwrote grub. I put in the FC3 dvd and did
grub-install /dev/hda but it said it couldn't find /sbin/grub. I tried
the knoppix cd, entered the grub prompt, and set grub up with these
commands:
#: root (hd1,0) --> hdb1 is my Fedora /boot and hdv2 is the LVM with /
#: setup (hd0,0)
Now my grub screen comes back up, and I can boot both my fedora and
debian installations, but WindowsXP just returns me to the grub screen.
I tried doing it by the grub command line but it does the same thing.
How to I get XP to boot?
Here is my grub.conf:
