Running httpd as a user
by Jonathan Gardner
I build websites for a living. I'd like to get /usr/sbin/httpd running
as a regular user. I've setup a directory with a simple httpd.conf on
my F15 install. When it starts up, I get a single message in the error
log:
[Fri Jul 01 23:36:53 2011] [notice] SELinux policy enabled; httpd
running as context
unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023
I've poked at Google for a while but I don't see a way to tune SELinux
to allow myself to run httpd. Any pointers? Turning SELinux off is an
option, but I'd rather learn more about how SELinux really works so
that I can take advantage of its benefits.

Kicad Questions
by Vinny Onelli
Hi,
I just installed Kicad and I have a couple question for some one
familiar with "PCB design" I generated a new part and saved in my
user directory, but the program does not give me the option to
access any other directory other the default. The second question,
can PCB design show a picture of the part highlighted?
Thank you in advance. Vinny

X server in F14 horribly slow
by JD
After upgrading to F14, switching from one workspace to another is
excruciatingly slow!!
I am a gnome user.
Can this be attributed to Gnome or to the X server
or to the ATI Radeon driver?

HD permissions stay put
by Johan Scheepers
Good day,
I have a multiple boot internal drive (different linux
flavors)(excluding windows).
Have a external usb drive for backup between these different systems.
Now booting in a different flavor the permissions change to numbers.
My normal permission is johan johan. I am the only user at home.
It is auto boot if from boot or later.
Now as root I change the owner and group -R.
This is annoying . Is there a way to make it stick please.
Thanks

Strange symbolic link behaviour?
by Eric B.
Hi,
I'm running FC14 and running into a strange situation with symbolic
links that I have never seen or noticed before.
If I create the following symbolic link:
[eric@eric-laptop ~]$ pwd
/home/eric
[eric@eric-laptop ~]$ ls Mail
draft inbox queue sent trash
[eric@eric-laptop ~]$ ln -s Mail/inbox test
[eric@eric-laptop ~]$ ls test
1 2 3 4 5
[eric@eric-laptop ~]$ cd test
[eric@eric-laptop test]$ pwd
/home/eric/test
[eric@eric-laptop test]$ ls
1 2 3 4 5
[eric@eric-laptop test]$ ls ..
draft inbox queue sent trash
The strange behaviour here is when listing the parent directory (..).
In this case, ls .. is listing the contents of Mail/ directory - not
/home/eric.
In the past, I always recall being able to use the parent identified
(..) to move up one level in the directory structure whether in a
symlink or not. In this case, I would have expected ls .. to list the
contents of /home/eric - not /home/eric/Mail.
Am I wrong? Am I seeing strange behaviour here? If so, is there a way
to enable the behaviour I expect?
Thanks!

Where will be the next FUDCon ?
by Marcos Ortiz Valmaseda
Regards and thanks a lot reading
I'm very happy with Fedora after 4 years like a normal user
and I think it's time to contribute to the project. So, I'm very
interested to participate on the next FUDCon.
I've seen that the last one in Panamá, was a completed
success, so I want to be part of this amazing community.

F15: two keys from keyboard not recognized on Acer TM6465 laptop
by Patrick Lists
Hi,
On my Acer TravelMate 6465WLMi laptop I have F15 x86_64 installed and
updated. On the laptop there are two keys that don't do anything: one
with the $ sign and another with the Euro sign (note: these are not the
"4" key which has the "$" above the "4" or the "5"" key which has the
Euro sign at the right of the "5" key). xev does not show anything when
either key is pressed. At the time of F11 or F12 I could fix this by
getting the keycode from xev and using setkeycode. But since xev does
not register a keypress when either key is pressed this is not possible.
Does anyone have an idea how I can make these keys work?
Thanks!
