acroread 64 bit
by Patrick Dupre
Hello,
How to get an acroread working with a 64bit machine?
If I do:
yum install nspluginwrapper.i686 AdobeReader_enu
I get
Error: Protected multilib versions: 1:cups-libs-1.5.0-22.fc16.i686
!= 1:cups-libs-1.5.2-1.fc16.x86_64
Error: Protected multilib versions: krb5-libs-1.9.2-4.fc16.i686 !=
krb5-libs-1.9.2-6.fc16.x86_64
if I install from AdbeRdr9.4.7-1_i486linux_enu.bin
Then I get an error
Adobe/Reader9/Reader/intellinux/bin/acroread: error while loading shared
libraries: libgdk_pixbuf_xlib-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No
such file or directory
Thank for your help.

Yum and Fedora 16
by n2xssvv.g02gfr12930
Currently I'm using Fedora 14, but after upgrading my PC I decided to
try and install Fedora 16 from the KDE spin, (no problem). The problem
arises when trying to do yum updates, I get multiple errors, some of
which stop Fedora 16 from shutting down. Sadly, based on this
experience, and previous experience trying to upgrade to Fedora 15 I'm
considering looking into another Linux distribution. My patience with
these problems, (2+ days already), is rapidly wearing thin! Piecemeal
updating by trial and error makes for a less than friendly release!
Looks like I may have to wait for Fedora 17 for a yum friendly release.

Sound input problem after F15 update
by Michael Eager
Hi --
I updated Fedora 15 a few days ago and now I don't have sound input.
The input device is a Hauppauge tuner and it is recognized:

Pulseaudio volume control shows the BT as an input device, but the volume
display doesn't show anything. The playback tab only shows "System Sounds".
There is also an internal sound card which shows up in pulse audio. When
the audio source is plugged in to this input, it does show up in the pulseaudio
volume display, but there is no sound output.
Playing audio from Rhythmbox works OK. (When this is running, the playback
tab shows Rhythmbox.)
Any help?

Kernel 3.2.3-2 will not initialize my Radeon based laptop
by don fisher
Title says it all. On boot I received a blur of messages, something
about not being able to allocate a specified amount of memory. These
messages are not logged anywhere I know of. They used to go out the
serial port and could be linked to another machine, remember that DB9
socket:-) How does one handle problems like this. Last time I was using
Fedora I was building my own kernels.

pam configuration for mobile one-time-password
by Gergely Buday
Hi,
I am trying to configure mobile one-time-password so that ssh
authenticates with that. See
http://motp.sourceforge.net/
for details. I was suggested to add
auth sufficient /lib64/security/pam_mobile_otp.so not_set_pass
password required /lib64/security/pam_mobile_otp.so debug
account required /lib64/security/pam_mobile_otp.so
to the beginning of /etc/pam.d/sshd . But it is not clear how should I
rewrite the default rest. Simply leaving the rest intact I get the
following behaviour: upon bad passcode I get "passcode not accepted"
in /var/log/messages. Upon good code nothing appears there, but the
login does not happen. What sequence of pam shared objects should run
on fedora 16 to make the login happen? Or, how should I rewrite the
lines below to make it work? I tried several variations but in vain.
Here is the rest of /etc/pam.d/sshd :
auth required pam_sepermit.so
auth substack password-auth
auth include postlogin
account required pam_nologin.so
account include password-auth
password include password-auth
# pam_selinux.so close should be the first session rule
session required pam_selinux.so close
session required pam_loginuid.so
# pam_selinux.so open should only be followed by sessions to be
executed in the user context
session required pam_selinux.so open env_params
session optional pam_keyinit.so force revoke
session include password-auth
session include postlogin
where postlogin is empty, and password-auth is
#%PAM-1.0
# This file is auto-generated.
# User changes will be destroyed the next time authconfig is run.
auth required pam_env.so
auth sufficient pam_unix.so nullok try_first_pass
auth requisite pam_succeed_if.so uid >= 1000 quiet

security spin
by Gergely Buday
Hi,
I tried to install the fedora 16 security spin onto my fedora 15 box
as a kvm virtual machine, twice, but both times it failed just before
the end. In the second attempt I created a larger disk image so not
that is the problem. The installer suggested that the media is bad but
I checked the sha 256 sum and it was OK. What could go wrong and how
could I fix it?
