when using xemacs on Fedora 14 I get a warning: "Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion"
by Kenneth Wolcott
Hi;
I'm using xemacs under Fedora 14.
Here is the ouput of "rpm -qa | grep xemacs":

I get the warning "Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion" when
I invoke xemacs.
What package am I missing?
Or: What environment variable(s) are not set properly?
I'm looking at http://tracker.xemacs.org/XEmacs/its/issue650 currently.
So, when Fedora packages up the xemacs rpm files, why aren't all required
fonts placed as a dependency for rpm (and yum)?
Thanks,

Fedora server use on AMD64 platform (processor is AMD Phenom II X4 B55)
by Braja Kishore Chattaraj
I had a general question about the use of Fedora as a server on a AMD64 platform (chip spec is on subject line). Could you please let me know how to install Fedora as a server as there are no links on the Fedora page for a server edition. Also, kindly confirm that I will be able to use this on a AMD64 platform. This is for home computing use and learning Fedora server. So, I don't need it to be ultra stable. I can compromise stability with having access to the new features.
Thanks,Braja

How to enlarge home dir. -

This computer is giving me fits because the home directory is overloaded.

There are 3 hard drives, apparently only one is being used, /dev/sdc, a
40 gig drive shared with a Windows partition. There are also 2 80 gig
drives, one has nothing on it but an LVM partiton:
Disk /dev/sdb: 80.0 GB, 80000000000 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 9726 cylinders, total 156250000 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disk identifier: 0xd0f4738c
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdb1 2048 156248063 78123008 8e Linux LVM
How do I get /dev/sdb1 added to the system?
This is probably the result of swapping drives from a defunct computer
into this one several months ago. I have been telling myself that I'll
just do a new install when F-15 comes out but it looks like I need to
fix the problem now.
What do I need to do?

DNS Server...
by Shin Seung Won
I am trying to run a DNS server - www.sswhome.com => serverA.sswhome.com and I made a nameserver - ns.sswhome.com
The files attached is the files I made.
only 'named.conf' is in '/etc', the others are in '/etc/named_own'.
It works well on my system(192.168.123.100 - using Samsung router).
The problem is, in other computer(also on router - 192.168.123.103), www.sswhome.com doesn't work!

No bold fonts in Firefox 4 and Chrome
by Fernando Lozano
Hi there,
Since last week, when I installed an update for Firefox 4 (from remi
repository) and for Google Chrome (from Google's own repository) I do not
have any more bold text in both. I use two webmail software that uses bold
/ regular fonts to tell which mesage is unread, and now I can't tell the
difference. Bold fonts seem to be working fine on OpenOffice and other apps
though.
Any hint on how to solve this will be appreciated.

killing myself softly with selinux
by Joel Rees
Anyone know a quick way to restore your SELinux policy rules after
something gets them so completely messed up that avc can't even talk
to itself?
(After an upgrade, F13 to F14, and hand-merging the *.rpmsave and
*.rpmnew stuff, sudenly no interne, then no login. Had to boot debian
to muck in root and /etc/selinux. Auto-relabeled without really
knowing what I was doing, now setting /etc/selinux/config to
permissive still gives me something like a hundred notices just to
start a web browser, and trying to run the policy generator tool that
way results in an avalanche of recursively generated messages. Crazy.)
I guess I should quit reading the list and go look in the wiki, ...

Wallet mysteries
by Timothy Murphy
Is there a one-page explanation of wallet
(actually I am using KDE Wallet) anywhere?
On one laptop I have to give my wallet password
everytime I go to my news account at news.eternal-september.org ;
on my other laptop I am not asked for this.
What is the explanation?
And how can I stop this request being made?
