Re: ATI fglrx driver ??
by Bill Case 04 Apr '06

04 Apr '06

Hi; Quoting from mailing list entry from Livna on Mar 20: "A note for users of ati-fglrx and nvidia-glx: The drivers currently don't work with the FC5 release kernel due to a bug in it. A updated kernel that should fix this issue should be pushed as a regular Fedora updated soon." Is it true the fglrx driver doesn't work? Now what do I do? I am currently downloading (very slowly) by BitTorrent the FC5 .isos. Regards Bill

Bob, You are on to something. My ps -ef does show that nolisten was passed to the command stream. Now, the question is, where do I go to modify this behavior?

K3B suddenly can't burn DVD anymore
by Reuben D. Budiardja 03 Apr '06

03 Apr '06

Hello, My K3B suddenly can't burn DVD anymore. Whenever I tried to burn DVD, it complained that it couldn't find media in /dev/hdc (although the DVD+R is there) and asked me to insert an "empty of appendable Double layer DVD+-R". Why does it do that ? and why it asked me for a double layer media ? my data is < 4GB. When this happens, I suddenly get this in my /var/log/message: Mar 20 08:18:36 defiant kernel: hdc: packet command error: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error } Mar 20 08:18:36 defiant kernel: hdc: packet command error: error=0x40 { LastFailedSense=0x04 } Mar 20 08:18:36 defiant kernel: ide: failed opcode was: unknown Mar 20 08:18:36 defiant kernel: ATAPI device hdc: Mar 20 08:18:36 defiant kernel: Error: Hardware error -- (Sense key=0x04) Mar 20 08:18:36 defiant kernel: Tracking servo failure -- (asc=0x09, ascq=0x01) Mar 20 08:18:36 defiant kernel: The failed "Read Cd/Dvd Capacity" packet command was: Mar 20 08:18:36 defiant kernel: "25 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 " I am not so sure if this is a device failure. Two days ago I could burn DVD just fine. Just now, I tried to burn CD with the same device and it worked fine. Any help ? Thank you in advance. RDB -- Reuben D. Budiardja Dept.

Yum doesn't appear to update packages anymore
by Jacques B. 03 Apr '06

03 Apr '06

Over the past several days it seems like yum is not doing any updates. I see postings on the list of updates, and my PC at the office seems to be grabbing the later versions, but not at home. For example mlocate-0.14-0.fc5.1 is out. My installed version is mlocate-0.12-1.2. But when I do a yum update, it says no updates (same applies to the recent kernel release, it's not picking that up). I even went so far as to do a yum remove of mlocate and then a yum install of it and sure enough it still grabbed the -0.12-1.2 version rather than the latest one. I have not been messing with the .repos so I can't understand why it has stopped updating. Any suggestions? Jacques B.
