ifconfig not found on Fedora6
by Larry Kelly 01 Mar '07

01 Mar '07

I have a Fedora6 installed using DHCP. How do I find out what IP has been assigned to it by the DHCP server. There is no ifconfig. -- Best Regards, -Larry "Work, work, work...there is no satisfactory alternative." --- E.Taft Benson

Video and Audio = Hangs
by Fernando Apesteguía 01 Mar '07

01 Mar '07

Hello people, I had some hangs with my computer and after a bit of testings I was able to reproduce it always. If I'm playing music and I try to use the Video card extensively (moving Page Up and Down in Evince - this makes my CPU go to 100%) the system hangs. It doesn't matter if I'm in X11 or console (mplayer playing music and pdftotext rendering also hangs) Any ideas? Any clues to perform more tests? Thanks in advance

Slightly OT: bad rap for Fedora, and realistic effects
by Arthur Pemberton 01 Mar '07

01 Mar '07

Well I'm not sure how many of you all have seen this: http://linux.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=07/02/22/207231 And this may or may not be the correct -list for this, but here goes. I think its fair to say that a lot of the louder voices on the internet do not like Fedora for fair and unfair reasons. My question is what does this do to Fedora, and RedHat by association. I can't imagine that anything good is coming of this. All the developers here are bound by the 24hr daily limit, ie. there is a finite amount of work that any developer can accomplish, esp. those not being paid to work on Fedora. Making the assumption that all these negative word of mouth is bleeding Fedora of contributors, then what's the plan? A few loyalist bound by the laws of Physics can only accomplish so much, and I'm even more worried that the bad karma trickles down to RedHat, who I believe is the Cinderella of the Linux community - one day I hope to be in the position to purchase RHEL licenses, but I'm becoming worried that it may not be around by time I get there. Peace -- Fedora Core 6 and proud

Filesystem problems
by Dan Track 01 Mar '07

01 Mar '07

Hi I've got a server with 59G /opt partiition. Currently df -h reports that I'm using 59G, however if I run "du -hs" on /opt the size of the indidivaual dir's sitting in /opt are much smaller and don't sum up to 59G. So my question is what is making the server think that more disk space is being used? Any help would be appreciated. Kind Regards Dan

RAID 0+1 on Fedora?
by Jack Howarth 01 Mar '07

01 Mar '07

Has anyone tried setting up a four drive RAID 0+1 on Fedora Core using the installer tools for setting up custom drive partitions? After doing some benchmarks on a new dual quad core Xeon system, it has become apparent that at 8 processors certain calculations that thread well can show a disk i/o bottleneck so it might be worth exploring striping my mirrors with a RAID 0+1. However, I am unclear on how well tested the linux software raid support (and installer setup tools) are for such a configuration. Jack

In FC5, gnome desktop, the mouse pointer jumps randomly to one of the screen borders at each minute or two when I'm moving it. Tried with two PS2 mouses and one USB mouse. How could I investigate it further? Regards, -- Clodoaldo Pinto Neto

Conflict with installing RKWard
by Paul Smith 01 Mar '07

01 Mar '07

Dear All RKWard seems to be a nice gui for R. Its site has the address http://rkward.sourceforge.net/ I have compiled it from the tarball and created a rpm, but getting the following conflict when trying to install it: «Transaction Check Error: file /usr/share/apps/katepart/syntax/r.xml from install of rkward-0.4.6-1 conflicts with file from package kdelibs-3.5.6-3.fc6» Any ideas? Is there somewhere a ready rpm without the above problem? Thanks in advance, Paul
