Stuff appearing across my terminal screens..
by Ted Gervais
I just noticed that while I was working in a terminal screen (F1), not in
the GUI that I got a bunch of stuff slowing popping up across my screen.
And at the time I had nothing working or running in the GUI setup. Here is
what I saw. Wondering what it meant??

What is the proper way to restart udev?
by Steven W. Orr
I found /sbin/udevstart but there is no udevstop. Can I kill -1 the
running udevd, or do I kill -9 the udevd followed by a udevstart, or do I
have to reboot?
TIA

New install of FC6, httpd won't start at boot
by linuxmaillists@charter.net
httpd fails at boot with no message as to why it failed.
I run
]# service httpd start
and get
Starting httpd: httpd: Syntax error on line 170
of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf: Cannot
load /etc/httpd/modules/mod_access.so into
server: /etc/httpd/modules/mod_access.so: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory
[FAILED]
I committed the line and the same thing happened on the next
line.
Someone said that mod_access.so does not exist from FC5 on
so why is this in the conf file if that is correct?
I don't know what else to check to get httpd to start.
Any help will be appreciated,
Jack

BUG: spinlock wrong CPU on CPU#1, fgBT878/1849 (Not tainted)
by Alan McIvor
Hi,
I'm trying to upgrade a device driver from FC2 to FC5 and am running
into the problem shown below. This is on a hyperthreading P4 3GHz
running kernel 2.6.15-1.2054_FC5smp. It also happens using kernel
2.6.16-1.2096_FC5smp. There are 16 devices in the machine. For each
there is a fgBT878 process, running at the max SCHED_FIFO
priority. If I reduce the number of devices to 1 or 2, the problem
doesn't appear to happen (i.e., with 16 devices the panic happens
pretty much straight away, with 1 or 2 devices I have run for an
hour). I have no problems with a non-SMP kernel.
What sort of errors should I be looking for in my driver code?
Thanks
Alan McIvor

cpu overheating
by Mike Chalmers
When I ran "yum update", when it started to install the updates it
said something like cpu 0 overheating cpu 1 overheating. Then my
screen went black for a second and the next thing I new is I was at
the login screen.
Having problems like this in Linux is unacceptable. That could have
caused major damage. Things like this need to be worked out. Linux
needs to focus more on the here and now and not keep pushing for the
newest technology.
Don't get me wrong I think Linux is a gem. I like the GPL but I don't
like how company's can use people's software and make profit. The
people that make the software should be getting paid if anyone is
getting paid.
Once again, things like this are unacceptable. I am afraid to use
Fedora 6 now. I alos, have am having problems after a clean
installation.
Kind Regards,
Mike

x0vncserver HowTo
by Jamie Bohr
After logging into X (KDE) I start x0vncserver. I tried several options
(-display=:0) but none seem to resolve my issue. From a remote (or the
local system) I try to connect to the server using vncviewer hostname:0, I
get Connection refused. I can telnet hostname 5998 and get a responce. I
have googled around and found nothing. I am missing something just not sure
what? How do I connect to a VNC server?
I am finding I can not connect to any VNC session (not even :1 after
starting it) yet I can telnet to the port. Any input would be greatly
appreciated.
