Java plugin in WebKitGTK JVM dialogs - how do I disable?
by Barry Scott
I want to run java applets in WebKitGTK on Fedora 13.
When I run tightvnc, for example, the JVM pops up a dialog asking
for permission to run the trusted applet.
Since my application has no keyboard or mouse, its a kiosk app, there
is no way to click on the dialog.
What I want to do is configure the system so that it never asks
and assumes yes run the app. How do I do this for all possible applets?

F13 <-> Samsung Galaxy S via USB
by Gary Stainburn
Hi folks,
If I connect a USB memory stick to my laptop it access it fine, with it
appearing in the 'Devices recently plugged in' and I can access the stick
fine.
If I try this with my Samsung Galaxy S in Mass storage mode, it doesn't work.
If you look at the following extract from /var/log/messages, you can see that
it gets as far as seeing the two devices (Phone memory and Micro SD card) but
doesn't make them available. The Toshiba shown below is the memory stick
that works.
Anyone know what I need to do to fix this?

foomatic/hplip vs hpcups drivers
by JD
Just wanted to know if the foomatic hplip drivers
and the hpcups drivers are mutually exclusive?
Reason I ask is that the foomatic hplip project
configured itself (when I installed it) so that
none of the hplip drivers got installed, but
the hpcups drivers did.
This sourceforge project provides the shell script
that builds and installs the binaries. User does
not get to play with configure.

installing HP printer, setup
by Mickey
FC13
I have installed the HPLIP drivers for a Deskjet F4580 printer, but cups
can't complete setup because of a file called foomatic-rip-hplip ,which
doesn't exist in fedora , but foomatic-rip does exist in fedora.
This foomatic-rip-hplip is called from the the .ppd file, instead of the
foomatic-rip file.
I have to edit the .ppd file for this printer and change the
foomatic-rip-hplip to foomatic-rip, WHERE is THIS .PPD file located in
FC13 ?

Maximum number of NICs for Linux.
by byrdca
Today I was asked about the maximum number of NICs supported by the
Linux kernel. My initial response was "probably more than you need".
Its been bothering me that I didn't know where to find the answer. I
looked in include/linux/limits.h, I didn't expect to find it but that
was my first thought. I then started digging through drivers/net but
I soon got lost. I'm after the hard data for the maximum number of
ethernet cards a modern Linux system supports, anyone have any ideas
on where I find this data?

F13 wifi goes a little crazy (Networkmanager)
by Boggiano
I've a strange problem with NetworkManager on my fedora 13.
The system is up-to-date and kernel is 2.6.34.7-56.fc13.i686.PAE.
Basically, every minute I lost the connection on the wireless interface (wlan0),
only for a couple of second, but it's really annoying when I'm using
skype, for example.
The connection is very simple: it's not secured! I don't have a static
ip, so I must use dhcp.
I never had any problem with other versions of fedora on this network.
I have only F13 on this laptop (HP HDX18).

The easiest way to make a custom boot cd is to modify the image of an
existing boot cd, copying whatever packages you want onto it, and then burn
the modified image to cd.

loading module during pxe boot
by Eric Doutreleau
i m trying to install a dell precision T1500
but i have the following stated here
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=525966
When i pxe boot my comp the network card is not discovered then i can't
install the machine.
The bug is closed because there s an updated kernel but no pxe
installation images have been made.
There s a workaround to solve the problem
it s to load broadcom module bedore tg3.
is there a way in anaconda to force the load of a module ?
I can't make a dvd installation as i have numerous computers with this
card with different configuration. and all are in my cobbler server then
a network installation is really needed.
Thanks in advance for any help
