Sound being fed back into audio system
by Anthony
Whenever I chat with someone over VoIP, they can hear themselves being
fed back into the audio stream. That's true even if I have headphones
on. Any idea how to fix this?
OS: FC18
Thanks,

Is this normal?? Have I screwed up royally somehow? I went
through the directions at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrading (or so I
thought). However, rpm -q yum says :
[btth@Hbsk2 ~]$ rpm -q yum yum-3.4.3-31.fc17.noarch [btth@Hbsk2 ~]$
Nevertheless, I get
[root@Hbsk2 ~]# yum update yum Loaded plugins: langpacks, presto,
refresh-packagekit No Packages marked for Update [root@Hbsk2 ~]#
*Note* : my #3 PC, which has been running F18 for a couple days
longer, does get F18 updates, and does reply to rpm -q yum with F18.

F18 - gnome-applet-alarm-clock?
by Paul Erickson
Does anyone know if gnome-applet-alarm-clock will be released for F18?
The only thing I can find regarding this says that the status is
"deprecated", and I do not know what that means. I realize that this is
not a top priority item, but I have often used it in previous FC
releases, and the current clocks available for F18 do not seem to work
very well, at least the alarm function.
Thanks in advance.
cheers, Paul

How do I resolve package conflicts?
by Anthony
There have been a few packages I've wanted to install that have run
into conflicts. In some cases, I've simply forced the install and
haven't had any problems. In others, like my Google Earth debacle last
week, I ended up with some pretty major problems that, thankfully,
this list helped me fix.
Now, I want to work on building a few RPM's and I need to install the
tools. But, when I try, I get an error saying there's a conflict with
the filesystem package.
What is the appropriate way to resolve this?
Thanks!
Anthony

Firewall and DNS caching without NetworkManager
by আনন্দ কুমার সমাদ্দার Ananda Samaddar
Hello all,
I've just installed Fedora 18 X86-64. I disabled and uninstalled
networkmanager and use the standard networking stuff which seems to
use dhclient. I'm using a standard ethernet connection.
So I need to do two things. Feel free to tell me to RTFM if you can
provide a link!
1. How do I enable pre-pending of nameservers? I want to use dnsmasq
to cache DNS requests so I need to add 127.0.0.1 to the top of
resolv.conf. Google searchs take me to the Arch Wiki. I can't seem to
find a dhclient.conf file anywhere in /etc.
2. How do I assign a zone in firewalld to my connection? I want to be
able to open ports for bittorrent and XMPP jingle voice/video. The
firewalld wiki on the Fedora site doesn't seem to be able to answer my
question.
thanks in advance,
Ananda Samaddar

Firewalld - list tables?
by John Horne
Hello,
I have been looking at the new Fedora firewall 'firewalld' and the
'firewall-cmd' command. I'm currently running F17 on a PC with an F18
virtual machine, and have been trying to understand firewalld prior to
upgrading to Fedora 19.
The PC has a modified iptables. So I have been trying to see how to
incorporate the changes into the new firewalld. I suspect I will need to
use the 'firewall-cmd --direct' option to add the iptables rules (as I
see no other way of specifying on the rules source/destination addresses
using 'firewall-cmd').
However, 'firewall-cmd' offers both the '--get-chains' and '--get-rules'
options, but these both require specifying which table is to be used.
How do I know what the tables are? There is no '--get-tables' option.
I can run 'cat /proc/net/ip_tables_names' and this lists the standard
iptables tables (nat ,mangle, filter). But if I use these names with
'firweall-cmd' all I get is a blank line displayed. E.g.
firewall-cmd --direct --get-chains ipv4 nat
The same occurs with all the table names.
So, my question is this, is 'firewall-cmd' working correctly and simply
stating that none of the tables have any chains (and so no rules)?
Secondly, how do I find out what tables are defined for firewalld?
Thanks,
John.

Apple Mac can't access NFS -
by Bob Goodwin
Our LAN has a mix of Linux and OSX computers connected to it. The Linux
computers work as expected but the OSX computers will not connect,
complains:
"Could not connect to the server because the name or password is not
correct."
The servers contain:
-bash-4.1$ cat /etc/exports
#
# /etc/exports
/nfs4exports
192.168.1.0/24(ro,sync,insecure,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check,fsid=0)
/nfs4exports/data
192.168.1.0/24(rw,sync,insecure,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check)
/nfs4exports/home
192.168.1.0/24(rw,sync,insecure,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check)
Does anyone see anything here that would prevent them from connecting?

Problem with Wifi after sleep
by Joshua J. Kugler
Fedora 18, kernel 3.9.4, lspci says "Intel Corporation Centrino Ultimate-N
6300 (rev 3e)." Wireless connections work fine, until it wakes from sleep. I
see three "direct probes" (among other things), and then connection fails.
If I hibernate, and wake up, wireless will work fine.
Also discovered that when it wakes up from sleep, it couldn't even see the
access point it was using before (according to Network Manager...or maybe it
had just removed it from the list since it couldn't connect). Disabling the
wireless by both software and hardware switches solved the visibility problem,
but did not resolve the connection issue.
relevant /var/log/messages parts attached.
Any other information you need from me? I'll open a bug, if need be.

Create permanent mce.log
by Frank Murphy
mcelog is now handled, by mcelog.service
You can "cat /var/log/messages | grep mce"
How could that be made more permanent,
to get all mce events into
/var/log/mcelog.
Do people just disable the .service,
and re-enable the mcelog.cron?

fedup-cli failed to upgrade from 18 to 19
by Mateusz Marzantowicz
I don't quite understand this error that occurred during Fedora upgrade.
I did: fedup-cli --network 19, the result is:
Upgrade test failed with the following problems:
insufficient disk space
need 150M free on / (1.2G free)
fedup ERROR: Upgrade test failed.
It needs 150 M but it states it has 1.2G available. So, is 150M > 1.2G ????
