FC11 missing dependencies on a new install
by Robert Moskowitz
I have just completed a new install on my ASUS ee 701 and now am trying
to do a yum update. I am hitting some missing dependencies. I will TRY
and get them all here, reading from one screen and typing here...
python-nose by numpy
kasumi by ibus-anthy
python-enchant by ibus-pinyin
jline by rhino
yum suggests I use 0--skip-broken 'to work around the problem'
Recommendations please?

Yes, I suspected, but how can I solve given that the problem occurs in all
distros I tried?

Unforch, the dependencies don't seem to be installable, even with a fresh
cpan on F10. It needs the Net::Ident kit, an apparently deprecated package as

raid1 mystery & workaround
by Paul Johnson
Hi, everybody.
I've found a workaround for a problem with a raid 1
array. I'm posting to share the "solution" and to
ask why this went wrong in the first place.
On an old test machine, I have 2 4-year-old
Seagate IDE drives in raid1 mirror for my home
partition. One failed and Seagate was very very
pleasant to replace it. I didn't even need a receipt!
They just went by the serial number to conclude I
was in warranty.
I followed "the usual" procedure for failed
drives. mdadm marked the drive as a failure and
it was removed from the array. Then I tried to
add it back into the raid 1.
One of the HOWTOs I relied on was this one:
http://www.howtoforge.com/replacing_hard_disks_in_a_raid1_array
Here's what went wrong. After being added, the new drive
went through a long "recovery" process--2 hours--but when
it finished, the new drive was marked as "spare" and the
raid 1 array continued to show only one drive was active.
Every time the system restarts, the new drive tries
to resync itself, it copies for 2 hours, but it never
enters the array. It is always spare.
In the end, gave up trying to fix /dev/md0.
I "guessed" a solution--create a new /dev/md1
device and refit the system to use that. I explain that
fix below, in case the same problem hits other
people.
But I'm still curious to know why it did not work.
Now the details:
The raid1 array was /dev/md0 and it used disks sdb1
and sdc1 and the one that failed was sdb1.
Here's what I saw while the new drive was being added:
# cat /proc/mdstat
Personalities : [raid1]
md0 : active raid1 sdc1[1] sdb1[2]
244195904 blocks [2/1] [_U]

I tried a lot of ways to set this right.
I tried "grow" the array, set the number of spares
to 0, and so forth. No success.
After a lot of tries, I gave up trying to get /dev/md0 to work.
So I stopped it, and the used the "--assume-clean" option to
create a new array on md1. I found that suggestion here
http://neverusethisfont.com/blog/tags/mdadm/
# mdadm -S /dev/md0
# mdadm --create --assume-clean --level=1 --raid-devices=2 /dev/md1
/dev/sdc1 /dev/sdb1
That works! So I just needed to reset the configuration
to use that. First, grab the metadata
# mdadm --detail --scan
ARRAY /dev/md1 metadata=0.90 UUID=6a408f8b:515f605f:bfe78010:bc810f04
And revise the mdadm.conf file
# cat /etc/mdadm.conf
DEVICE /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdc1
ARRAY /dev/md1 level=raid1 num-devices=2
UUID=6a408f8b:515f605f:bfe78010:bc810f04 devices=/dev/sdc1,/dev/sdb1
And I changed /etc/fstab to point at md1, not md0.
But why did /dev/md0 hate me in the first place?
I wonder if it was personal :(

How to set VNC display resolution on F11?
by KC8LDO
I just installed F11 on an AMD X2 5600+ machine with 4GB and an integrated
video system, 9100M, to experiment with it. I'm using the 32 bit OS for
right now since I don't want to deal with issues mixing 32 and 64 bits apps
and libraries together on one machine.
I tried to setup VNC on the above machine. I used the exact same procedure
as on another machine I have running F10. The setup on F11, which mostly
works, except for the remote display resolution. It seems whatever I set in
the "etc/sysconfig/vncserver" file is ignored by the server. The server
seems to pick some resolution which does not match the display settings I
want on the client side. I used the exact same settings from an F10 box
which seems to work fine. I've also used the same setup on a F8, FC5 and an
FC3 box too without a problem in the past. Any ideas?
