taskbar too short
by Mick M.
Hi;
F9 KDE 4
I replaced my monitor with a Viewsonic VA1912wb lcd
It runs at 144x900.
I got it to do that by deleting xorg.conf and using the gui
F->settings->system settings->display
However the task bar is too short (by 2")
Any ideas?

Yum plugins -
by Bob Goodwin
I've installed F-9 and in the process lost the yum plugins such as
"fastest mirror" and I can't find where they came from?
Can someone point me in the right direction?

Restrictions on key versions for rpm?
by Bruno Wolff III
I was trying to import an old pgp key into rpm and it is failing without
a useful error message about why. The key needs idea, but I have that
installed. I don't know if there is a bug, a limitation or user error.
[root@cerberus rpm-gpg]# rpm -vv --import gpg-pubkey-bruno
D: opening db environment /var/lib/rpm/Packages create:cdb:mpool
D: opening db index /var/lib/rpm/Packages create mode=0x42
D: locked db index /var/lib/rpm/Packages
error: gpg-pubkey-bruno: import failed.
D: closed db index /var/lib/rpm/Packages
D: closed db environment /var/lib/rpm/Packages
D: May free Score board((nil))
I exported the key with:
gpg --export --armor
The key is:

Loss of Firefox plugins
by Timothy Murphy
I find that if Firefox is running when I shutdown,
so that it starts automatically on re-boot,
most of the Firefox plugins are not installed.
I have to stop Firefox and re-start it,
and then the plugins (eg Flash) are there.
Is there any way I can avoid this,
short of stopping Firefox before I shutdown?

Hi;
I bought a Cobalt Qube 2 locally yesterday.
I saw some posts in my searches of RH 5.1 on this, but dead links.
This has the mips cpu.
Anyone done it?
Any advice?
Thanks

Local binding port for SSH client?
by Jorge Fábregas
Hello guys,
I'm wondering if it's possible to specify a local port when one uses the ssh
client program? I'm sure the kernel is the one who decides some random port
above 1024 at execution time...but I'm wondering if there's any way to
control this at user level?
Thanks,
Jorge
p.d. all references to local ports on the man page are related to
port-forwarding which is not the case in this case.
