F-15 Scanner Tool -
by Bob Goodwin
I believe Scanner Tool translates to xsane? I know I had an
application that permitted editing those names in the menu but
can't recall its name?
I'm trying to copy a page of clear text with an HP-5370C flat
bed scanner that I have been using for some time. I am using
xsane which I believe I installed via yum before I realized that
Scanner Tool meant xsane. Scanner Tool will not start apparently
because it sees another version of xsane.
That's not really my problem however. I have saved scans as .png
and .pnm and neither will print a clear copy. The text looks as
though it was copied through the mesh of a window screen and is
hard to read.
Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

Continued problems with kernel 2.6.40.3-0 and nvidia 280.13-2 in fc15 ?
by linux guy
Am I the only one having problems with kernel 2.6.40.3-0 and/or
(a)kmod-nvidia 280.13-2 in fc14 and/or fc15 ?
My Dell duo won't boot the afore mentioned kernel at all. It fails with a
kernel bug message. It runs prior kernels just fine.
My HP laptop freezes during a graphical session login with the
aforementioned kernel and nvidia module. It did so in FC14. I upgraded to
fc15 and it does the same thing.
The same laptop runs the F15 Live iso just fine and also runs the
aforementioned kernel from the cli just fine. The problem is only when a
graphical session is being used.
Is anyone else having the same problem or is it just me ?

kernel panic
by antonio montagnani
Since this morning, I get a kernel panic and my system stops
First line says :
Kernel panic - not syncing: fatal exception in interrupt
PID: 47, comm:
kworker/u:3 Tainted: G D 2.6.40-3-0.fc15.i686.PAE #1
and many lines of trace,
many of them reporting ieee80211 and iwl3945.
How can I report the full set of
messages? (If not copying by hand??)
Tnx

F15 and Chrome
by Frederick N. Brier
I upgraded to F15 a couple of weeks ago. Everything is slower, but
Google Chrome behaviour is driving me crazy. For example, when I
bookmark a page, a little dialog pops up. The frame of the dialog will
come up almost immediately, but then it takes at least 40+ seconds for
the widgets to paint. Once I click the dialog's Done button, Chrome
becomes unresponsive for another 40+ seconds. Chrome was uber-fast
before upgrading from F14 to F15. What is going on? And it isn't just
Chrome, it is all my applications, IntelliJ, Thunderbird, the whole
windowing system. What is going on? I must be missing some critical
configuration. I cannot believe that Fedora team would release
something with these behaviour characteristics.
My hardware is not terrible. It is a 3Ghz quad-core Phenom II, 8GB RAM,
nVidia 7950 GT, 3Ware controller with 7200rpm Seagate NS drives. The
nVidia drivers are installed. Nothing has changed. I had a minor issue
with X/Gnome initially not coming up, but once I tweaked the yum.repos.d
files and the new service startup config files, everything worked. It
is just SO slllloooooooowwwww.

Upgrading via DVD iso on a USB storage device.
by linux guy
I want to upgrade from F14 to F15. For whatever reason, the boot after
running preupgrade fails if I try to do it that way.
So now I would like to upgrade via the DVD iso.
I would like to do so without burning a DVD. I'd like to load the DVD iso
onto a USB flash storage device and boot it from that.
I tried using the Fedora Live USB Creator tool. It gives me a "Unable to
find LiveOS on ISO" error.
How do I put the DVD iso image on a USB flash storage device so it will boot
?
Thanks

zip /gzip in bash
by 嘉谟
Hi every one ,
I was confuse to use gzip in shell.
You see below. I can use zip -gj make test.tar include the
testfile and the test1file
However , use gzip make the test_gzip.tar.gz NULL.
I see man and use gzip -c file >> tarname. to add a file to a tar file .
Can anyone tell me why?
You can let /root have two sample file testfile test1file
#!/bin/sh
anse='/root/test.tar'
anse_gzip='/root/test_gzip.tar.gz'
test='/usr/local/sbin/testfile'
test1='/usr/local/sbin/test1file'
zip -gj $anse $test
zip -gj $anse $test1
gzip -c $test >> $anse_gzip
gzip -c $test1 >> $anse_gzip
I think gzip can do what zip can do in linux .
If I just do
gzip -c testfile >> test_gzip.tar.gz
It can create the test_gzip.tar.gz file But can't include any file .
