timezone confusion (new F17 install)
by Greg Woods 04 Jun '12

04 Jun '12

I have a fresh install of F17 that has some confusion about its timezone. The date displays as MDT (which is correct), but every time I boot the machine, it displays six hours ahead. Not coincidentally I'm sure, that is the offset between MDT and GMT, so what I'm seeing is correct GMT time but displayed with MDT timezone, so in reality it is off by six hours. I can reset the time with "ntpdate", and it works fine until the next reboot, at which point it's off by six hours again. Obviously I've got something misconfigured but I can't figure out what. Anyone seen this before? Thanks, --Greg

Getting DVBcut to work with F17
by Fernando Cassia 04 Jun '12

04 Jun '12

I'm trying to get DVBcut to work in F17 http://dvbcut.sourceforge.net/download.html I got as far as to get a F17 RPM built, but it complains about a missing libao.so.2 AFAIK F17 has got libao installed. So what is missing here?. I have checked and there's references to libao.so.2 in the F16 RPM changelog http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/fedora/16/x86_64/libao-1.1.0-1.fc16.i686.html but there is no sign of a libao.so.2 on my F17 system. Thoughts? Comments? Expletives? ;-) - Thanks in advance. FC -- During times of Universal Deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act - George Orwell

grub.cfg not updated during preupgrade
by Patrick O'Callaghan 04 Jun '12

04 Jun '12

I recently upgraded F16->F17 using preupgrade. I booted into F17 and everything seemed to work until I tried rebooting, whereupon I got a Kernel panic with a lot of stuff about missing files (mdadm, sh, cat, ...) and a panic backtrace. This was completely reproducible. I then noticed that the running kernel was still kernel-3.3.7-1.fc16.x86_64, despite the fact that kernel-3.3.7-1.fc17.x86_64 had been installed by preupgrade, i.e. grub.cfg had not been changed to reflect the new kernel. I updated to F17 3.4 from updates-testing and the problem appears to have gone away, i.e. grub is now correct. So it looks like the issue was that grub.cfg should have been changed during the preupgrade, but wasn't. Has anyone else seen this? On a related note: how does one capture the console output when a panic like this occurs? It isn't in any log files (maybe by this time there isn't a filesystem) and it's a chore to have to copy it all by hand, which is why I haven't bothered in this case. poc

Fedora 16 Lost File Associations
by spm 04 Jun '12

04 Jun '12

I applied an update last night and now most of the file associations are gone. Most icons are gone from the shell. The desktop background images are not recognized (I cannot even browse back to them, since it no longer recognizes any image formats (JPG, etc). I tried to open a JPG in image viewer and it won't. Any help /advise would be greatly appreciated. I'm assuming it was a bad RPM in the updates. Am I alone or have others seen this?

puldeaudio cpu load
by JD 04 Jun '12

04 Jun '12

Every time I go to a web site that has a video to play, pulseaudio racks up 20% of cpu even if I do not play the video. Playing the video, I get plugin-container racks up 24.0% of cpu, and pulseaudio racks up another 15.5% of cpu. I kill the tab of the web page, and pulseaudio cpu load goes way down, and plugin-container remains at a fixed 5.6% to 6.3% of cpu. Is this normal for a unicore athlon64 3200+ laptop?
