by Jim 24 Dec '08

24 Dec '08

Fedora 8 won't keep correct time. "Unable to connect to time server" , it doesn' make any difference what time server you try to connect to. "ntpd" is running in services.

The problems with pymol crashing under Fedora 10 using the radeon drivers appear to be resolved now (at least in fedora-testing). FYI. Jack

Applications tab in KDE
by Rafnews 24 Dec '08

24 Dec '08

Hi, I was successful to install KDE on F10 and to use this wonderfull environment. However, i tried to install PostgreSQL from official Add/Remove Software application (server + client) but after clicking on Apply, F10 downloaded some packages and nothing more was done. i was looking for if F10 installed those packages as normally a /var/lib/pgsql/postgresql.conf file has to be created but nothing as such and nothing also somewhere else (i tried find / -name 'postgresql.conf' as root. 1. how is it possible ? the packages are not installed automatically ? 2. how can i checked if such package is correctly installed ? after that, i decided to download it by myself in tmp folder and i installed it. first of all, this bin file installs by default under /opt/postgresql/8.3/ ... but my main issue is the following. after installation F10 has created a tab/folder (PostgreSQL 8.3), under Application menu. 3. how can i create my own tab/folder for hosting programs ? 4. how can i move the postgreSQL 8.3 program files/folder/tab from application menu to my new tab/folder from point 3 ? thanks a lot, -- Alain ----------------------------------------------------------- Windows XP x64 SP2 PostgreSQL 8.3.5 / MS SQL server 2005 Apache 2.2.10 PHP 5.2.6 C# 2005-2008

backup of my / filesystem
by Kevin Kempter 24 Dec '08

24 Dec '08

I'm looking for a clean way to backup my laptop in part so before I apply any updates I have a clean backup to revert to if needed. I have a / and /home filesystems in order to backup before I run a set of updates from yum I suspect I need to backup / separately this way I dont need to restore my 22Gig of documents in /home if an update breaks something. In the past I've gone onto single user mode and used dd to backup my HD I wonder if running tar with the proper flags to ensure the following would be as effective 1) restrict tar to the current(/) filesystem (i.e. disallow it from going off into /home) 2) ensure that tat picks up all the dot files 2 questions: 1) is the above tar scenario sufficient to protect me from yum update changes? 2) anyone have suggestions per specific tar commands that will do the operations specified above? Thanks in advance

I'm curious as to whether that's a blanket effect against all Fedora 8 bugs, or takes into account bugs that also affect later versions. e.g. The bug gets reported against 8, but some of the addendums people attach include 9 or 10. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.7-53.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
