Dell MD3000, MDSM, F10 and iSCSI
by Christopher A Williams
Has anyone gotten this combo to work?
Dell 2950 with stock MD3000 array (not the MD3000i)
MDSM to manage the MD3000
iSCSI Target
All on F10
We're been trying to get this to work for weeks and have been thoroughly
unsuccessful! MDSM doesn't want to run on F10. In fact, it doesn't want
to run on anything other than RHEL or CentOS. But these are brutally bad
when it comes to running iSCSI Target and they aren't the direction
we're trying to go with this thing.
If anyone has this combo running, can you share the secret? Can we
manage the MD3000 with something other than MDSM since it refuses to run
on F10 and we're getting absolutely no help from Dell since it's not
RHEL?
Cheers,
Chris

Hello there,
few sounds after rebooting, sound doesn't play anymore in my Fedora 10,

Any hint? Is there something to tune or to report to the alsa team?

I submitted the same thread on fedoraforum.org and received useful
advices from there. But that didn't solve my problem. Here's what I have
now:
I assigned F10 eth1 an address 192.168.2.1/24
and done some additional iptables commands on F10:
iptables -A FORWARD -i eth1 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A FORWARD -o eth1 -j ACCEPT
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING
Also enabled stack forwarding with this command
on F10:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
Assigned for F9 laptop IP 192.168.2.2
Setted laptop' route table so it's default gateway is 192.168.2.1
IT ALL DOESN'T WORK.
I can't go WEB from the laptop. I can ping the f10 machine. And I can
ping 192.168.2.2 from f10 machine.
Here's the ifconfig output of F10 machine:

scsi disk sdb found after fstab tries to mount it
by Mattias Hellström
I added a scsi disk to a machine (fedora is 10 installed to sata disk)
but mounting fails.
I boot the machine, I get a mount failure, it tells me to enter root
password or ctrl-d to reboot then (just to taunt me) I get sdb info.
Probably an easy fix, for those who know the subtle details of the
boot sequence.

Permissions on USB device (camera)
by Ray Van Dolson
I'm running in XFCE (I boot in run-level 3 and start it with startxfce)
and when I plug in my USB camera (Canon A720), the /dev/usbdev* devices
all are set up owned by root.root with 660 permissions. This means I
can't use the device as my local user account.
I haven't yet gone to GNOME to see if it works there or not, but I
imagine it would -- I've copied photos off this camera many times from
this machine in the past (not sure they I ever have in XFCE though).
Anyways, wanted to troubleshoot this and so I ran udevadm control
--log_priority=debug, plugged my device in and found out that
pam_console_apply gets called at some point to set the permissions for
me. Its man page says it looks for /var/run/console.lock, but it
appears, in reality, it checks for /var/run/console/console.lock. I
see from strace that it reads my username out of there, but I can see
from the debug logs that the root permissions get set on my device
anyways!
Anyone have any idea why? Should I add something to 50-default.perms
for my camera?
