firefox
by Thornton
Where does firefox keep its bookmarks? And is it possible to copy them
from my linux box to my windows box and have firefox on win2k use the
new bookmarks?
I am being forced to use win2k at the office for a project but need some
of my bookmarks moved over.
Thanks!

I'm having trouble booting from the CD
by Tyler
Hello everyone. I have a problem I was hoping someone could help me
with. When I try to boot my Fedora CD I get this message
ISOLINUX 2.06 2003-08-22 isolinux: disk error 01, AX = 4293, 9F
I have no idea what it means or what to do. Any help that someone could
give me would be appreciated.

Fedora Core 4 On mini mac
by Hill, Richard D
(sorry if this is the wrong place to post this)
For days I have been trying to install Fedora core 4 (ppc) on my Mini Mac I have repartitioned destroyed partitions etc and every time it errors with ignore or cancel messages about partition blocks I can press ignore and go on but it generally bombs out when it comes to the actual formatting of the new partitions I've defined and the copy of files part , on one occasion it seemed to actually install but on reboot it failed to load kernel image
There is nothing wrong with the hdd I have no issues at all installing tiger back on the Mini Mac , but do what I will it actively refuses to have anything to do with Fedora.
Has anyone else experienced this problem ?
Richard

Never mind....
EDIT -> PREFERENCES -> BEHAVIOR -> Always open in browser window was
unchecked. I checked it and the sidebar is back.

Having to log in is the default; before upgrading you must have
configured autologin yourself.
See the AutomaticLoginEnable and AutomaticLogin keywords (documented at
http://yippi.hypermall.com/gdm/gdm-documentation/x241.html) in
/etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf to set it up again.

problem using gcc-3.4.2 @ FC3
by Gavin Li
I have some structures defined as:
typedef struct {
unsigned char ID __attribute__ ((packed)) ;
CALIB_ASC asc __attribute__ ((packed)) ;
} ASC __attribute__ ((packed)) ;
when I compiled the c source file, gcc send warning packed is ignored.
There is no warning when use gcc -2.95.x
Another problem the option -fvolatile is not supported in gcc-3.4.2, what is
the equivalent to do that?

Question about sendmail...
by Philip Prindeville
I'm running FC3 (updated) on a handful of machines.
I have a single IP address, with a NATing router set to that
address. I have a domain, and an MX which points through
the router at my mail server (or rather, the router is configured
to port-forward 25, 143, etc to the mail server).
I also have several mail clients on my 192.168.1.x network.
The issues are the following:
* the clients have a smart host (DS) defined as the mail relay,
but they canonical its name and then look it up in the DNS,
trying to contact it on the external IP address (and not its
internal 192.168.1.x address in the /etc/hosts file). My
/etc/nsswitch.conf file is unmodified.
* the clients then try to relay the email with a sender's envelope
address as user(a)host.my-domain, which the relay rejects
because "host.my-domain" doesn't resolve in the DNS.
* I should probably have define(`LOCAL_RELAY', `:$S') to
handle forwarding everything to the mail server.
I used to know all of this stuff once upon a time...
Am I missing anything?
Thanks,
-Philip

DVD burning - mkisofs max size allowed
by A. Lanza
Hi list,
i'm trying to burn a DVD using k3b, as i usually do for CD burning. I'm
using 4,7GB size DVD-R. The problem is that i cannot burn a 4,4GB. file.
The file is exactly 4,613,704,668 bytes long.
The message i get from k3b is the following:
/usr/bin/mkisofs: Value too large for defined data type
and then
File <file> is too large - ignoring
It seems like the problem is the file size, but that file should fit in
a DVD, shouldn't it? Is there any limit in the size of files written to
DVD?
Thanks,
Alf

Bug report requests for Fedora build of OpenOffice.org software
by Bob Kline
The other day while I was running oocalc in the FC4
distribution of the OpenOffice.org suite the program
crashed and a dialog message came up stating that "OOo
has crashed ..." and requesting that I send a bug
report with the displayed information. Assuming that
the request was from the OpenOffice.org team, I filed
a bug report with them, taking the time to provide a
substantial amount of supporting information. I
received back a terse request that I file bug reports
against the latest, not the production version of the
software I am running. When I wrote back to point out
that I wasn't a beta tester, and that I had only filed
a bug report because they had asked me to, they
retorted that it wasn't their software that had
crashed, and made it very clear that they don't want
bug reports for derived versions of their software
which they didn't build themselves. I wrote back and
apologized for having bothered them, thinking that the
dialog box requesting the bug report had been put up
by the OOo team, rather than the Fedora team, and I
promised that I would pass along to the Fedora team a
suggestion that your build should not be requesting
bug reports for builds of OOo created by the Fedora
team. So that's what I'm doing.
Bob Kline
(Yes, I know it doesn't make any sense for developers
to turn down carefully prepared feedback on problems
in their software, no matter where it's built. I'm
just passing on what I was told by the OOo team.
Sorry!)
