Anyway the crucial settings appear to be the following: Memory controller mode : Unganged Bank interleaving : Auto (Only applicable if you have paired memory modules installed) Channel interleaving : disabled (this is only works for Phenom and not X2,X3, or X4 processors) The memory timings and voltages were left as auto.

In fact I am now able to use an ATAPI zip drive as well which had long been a problem. For all of this it is still extremely frustrating. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

I take your point: that is a special case, albeit a very common one.

All you can do is hope they won't change, or hard-wire some names.

Re: [389-users] How to tell when database backup has finished?
On 04/10/2012 11:46 PM, MATON Brett wrote:
Thanks for the suggestions.
For the record, status 32 was an error on my part, I hadn’t quoted
the bind DN so ldapsearch was actually complaining about the bind DN
not being found, not the backup task.
Noriko, I’ve searched “cn=backup,cn=tasks,cn=config” and can’t find
nstaskstatus anywhere. I’m assuming that it also gets deleted once
the task is complete...
cn=backup,cn=tasks,cn=config is the parent entry for all backup task
entries. When you create an entry under this parent, it starts the
backup task. It is the backup task entry that has the nsTaskStatus
attribute, not the parent entry "cn=backup,cn=tasks,cn=config". When
the backup task is complete, and the ttl is expired, the backup task
entry is automatically removed.
Hi Rich, I appreciate your clarification. I did however mean that I
was searching “cn=backup,cn=tasks,cn=config” with no additional
filters which should have returned everything, nsTaskStatus included
for any backup job?
Exactly what search parameters (e.g. ldapsearch command line
arguments) did you use?
I might just be having a dumb moment but I couldn’t think of an
efficient way to check the error log for a Backup Finished entry,
anyone with suggestions?
The best way is to do the ldapsearch as described above.
I’m still having issues, $taskDN for example would be something like
cn=backup_2012_4_5_13_36_23, cn=backup, cn=tasks, cn=config
COUNT=1
while [ ${COUNT} -ne 0 ]; do
#
# OOPS: -b ${taskDN}
# -b "cn=backup,cn=tasks,cn=config" "cn="
#
COUNT=$(ldapsearch -x -H ${HOST} -D "${BINDAS}" -y ${PWFILE}
-b "cn=backup,cn=tasks,cn=config" "(${taskDN})" dn | grep -c '^dn')
so this would expand to something like
COUNT=$(ldapsearch -x -H ldap.example.com -D "cn=directory manager" -y
pwfile.txt -b "cn=backup,cn=tasks,cn=config"
"(cn=backup_2012_4_5_13_36_23, cn=backup, cn=tasks, cn=config)" dn |
grep -c '^dn')
This is incorrect in the following ways:
1) the argument to -H must be a valid LDAP URL - so -H
ldap://ldap.example.com $HOST is just a variable name, it’s actually
the URL
2) "(cn=backup_2012_4_5_13_36_23, cn=backup, cn=tasks, cn=config)" is
not a valid LDAP search filter - if you want to search for the backup
entry, do one of the following
a) ldapsearch ... -s base -b "cn=backup_2012_4_5_13_36_23, cn=backup,
cn=tasks, cn=config" ...
or
b) ldapsearch ... -b "cn=backup, cn=tasks, cn=config"
"(cn=backup_2012_4_5_13_36_23)" ...
OK, search terms corrected.
The command expands to and returns this:
ldapsearch -x -H ldaps://:636 -D "cn=Directory Manager" -y
/root/.389ds-pw -s base -b "cn=backup_2012_4_11_7_28_40, cn=backup,
cn=tasks, cn=config"
# extended LDIF
#
# LDAPv3
# base
with scope baseObject
# filter: (objectclass=*)
# requesting: ALL
#
# search result
search: 2
result: 32 No such object
# numResponses: 1
I tweaked the db2bak.pl script to include ttl: 600 as I wanted some
time to examine the backup task entry and search results:
...
$dn = "dn: cn=$taskname, cn=backup, cn=tasks, cn=config\n";
$misc = "changetype: add\nobjectclass: top\nobjectclass:
extensibleObject\n*ttl: 600\n*";
$cn = "cn: $taskname\n";
...
The entry gets added, but still disappears near instantaneously
(db2bak.pl called standalone for output):
Back up directory:
/var/lib/dirsrv/slapd-/bak/-2012_4_11_7_42_4
ldap_initialize( )
add objectclass:
top
extensibleObject
add ttl:
600
add cn:
backup_2012_4_11_7_42_4
add nsArchiveDir:
/var/lib/dirsrv/slapd-/bak/-2012_4_11_7_42_4
add nsDatabaseType:
ldbm database
adding new entry "cn=backup_2012_4_11_7_42_4, cn=backup, cn=tasks,
cn=config"
modify complete
As you can see from the ls output below, tar is still being called
before the task has completed:
[root@ backup]# ls -ltr
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 6788 Apr 11 07:28 20120411072840-.tgz
drwx--. 5 nobody nobody 4096 Apr 11 07:28 20120411072840-
Thanks for your time
ok - I'd like you to try two more things:
1) alter your search parameters - do this instead:
ldapsearch -x -H ldaps://:636 -D "cn=Directory Manager" -y
/root/.389ds-pw -b "cn=backup, cn=tasks, cn=config"
do you see anything?
2) can you confirm using the errors log (manually, not automated with a
script) that your backup task was started successfully and completes
successfully? Just to be sure that it is indeed being started and
finishing correctly
if [ ${COUNT} -ne 0 ]; then
sleep 5s
fi
done
tar czf ${BACKUPPATH}${BKTSTAMP}-${INSTANCE}.tgz -C / ${DSBACKUPDIR#/*}
However the tar file is incomplete, because (assumption) the backup
has not finished writing to disk before tar starts
For the time being I’ve settled on two scripts, one to start backups
and another to archive yesterdays (or older) backups. Not ideal but
workable
Thanks again,
Brett

Looking past the number '17' in the question -- this is a very general question common to all Fedora releases. When you see "localhost login:" on the screen, you either don't have a graphical environment installed, or the graphical X Window System failed to start. If that happened, it's likely that firstboot, the graphical helper that lets you set up a user account, didn't run, so you may not be able to log in as a standard user. You can still login at this prompt with your 'root' account and password. From that point, you can look at /var/log/Xorg.0.log to see what happened that caused your X Window System to fail. If you want to post that for people here to look at and offer advice, please *don't* attach the file to your email. It will probably be too big and your message won't come through.

At the GRUB boot menu, hit Tab to edit the default entry. 2. Go down to the (long, multi-line) entry that starts with "linux" and add " 1" (that's a space and then a number 1) to the end. 3. Hit F10 to accept the changes for this session, and boot. 4. At the prompt, type the following command to reset the root password: passwd 5. You can then type the following command to complete normal startup: systemctl isolate default.target HTH. -- Paul W.

Changing the login screen background image in F16
I've looked around and can't find where the Gnome login screen background image is stored. I want to set it to something different from the default. I'm not talking about the desktop wallpaper. as soon as I log-in it's displayed fine. I'm talking about the background image when the OS first boots and the Gnome log-in screen is displayed. All the solutions that came up on Google were for Ubuntu and referred to an Ubuntu-specific tweak tool. I looked in Gnome-tweak-tool and couldn't find any option to change this...

Yes, I remember a thread for instance about how bad it was for "the next fedora version" to include BTRFS. That'd have been inappropiate too as the next version "wasn't still released" and thus talking about it didn't belong on this list. Yet, that thread went on for weeks as far as I remember. But let's respect the wishes of the list rules enforcers, please. :) Life is too short to lose time on mailing list fights. (gosh, I'm getting too old, I thought I'd never say that ;).

The test list is intended for people who are using the next, un-released version of Fedora to help one another with issues and find out how to get everything working. All of them are using it, at least part of the time and they're familiar with its issues, quirks and shortfalls. We aren't, because the vast majority of us aren't interested in playing around with beta versions; we're just interested in getting things done so we stick with the currently supported, officially released versions. You don't go to a Linux list to ask Windows questions, so why should you go to a list for the production versions of Fedora to ask about a beta version? To me, and probably most of the people reading this, the sensible thing to do is to pick a list where the readers are using the same version you are, and right now, if you're working with F17, that's the test list. Believe it or not, like it or not, pointing members asking about F17 toward the test list *is* helping them because it's telling them where they can get their questions answered. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

You might want to try this as root first, after saving your work: touch /.autorelabel ; reboot Running SELinux disabled is unnecessary. Running in permissive mode is much better, since it allows you to switch back and forth without labeling problems. When you run in disabled mode, SELinux labels aren't written to the disk when files are created, so when you try to turn SELinux on later, it results in lots of denial errors. Permissive mode does pretty much the same thing as enforcing mode, but any denials are ignored, so SELinux won't prevent access. -- Paul W.

Maybe keyboard definition issues?
My hardware tends to be Japanese, and sometimes the difference in key
positions has left me with a root password set assuming US English
layout. Some of the punctuation keys move when the full system boots
and the keyboard definition is correctly set. If I work out what moved
where, I can log in.
But sometimes it's easier to just boot single user and set the
password again. (Don't have all the layouts memorized.)
Lately, I am beginning to doubt the wisdom of always hiding the
password when you're setting it, especially now that proper passwords
are generally understood to be long and convoluted. It would sometimes
be nice to have a "Debug keyboard" or "I've checked, nobody's looking
over my shoulder, and I need to see what I'm typing." button.
Setting up a new system is, statistically speaking, sometimes going to
require some debugging until we can put the WINTEL-pseudo-standard
infected hardware behind us. (And I don't even see Apple trying to do
that, now.)
Of course, you can always try the keys that might have moved --
()[]{}"'=;:+*-_\| and so forth -- where you'd type a user name. You
often have to think in reverse, of course, as in, "I thought I was
typing left-bracket, what would that have been?"

Well, some of us are interested in heads-ups and such. But this particular question, the issues and work-arounds are not exactly limited to the test version. In cases where a somewhat experienced user is deciding to take the next step up and be a noob with debugging, he or she is going to want to come back here to ask basic questions from time to time, but the fact that the basic question came up on a test system is still relevant. > You don't go to a Linux > list to ask Windows questions, so why should you go to a list for the > production versions of Fedora to ask about a beta version? Heh. If we were doing stand-up comedy here, that would be a great straight line. I've been itching to say this for several months: Oh, do you mean to say that we should consider MSWindows the alpha version of Fedora? (erk. I really should control myself. If my kids were listening, they would be making the cold, lonely, desert wind sound now.) > To me, and > probably most of the people reading this, the sensible thing to do is to > pick a list where the readers are using the same version you are, and right > now, if you're working with F17, that's the test list. If it were just a test question, I'd agree. And, of course, he needs to be communicating with the test and devel lists, so that someone can say, "Oh. Sorry. That was my fault. Grab the next version of the image in about an hour." or, "Huh? What did I do? Hang on a minute. In the meantime, can you try typing this here and see what happens?" or something like that. (I gather that IRC is often better than the mailing list for that, BTW.) But when it comes to, "I'm lost! Can someone tell me to turn left or right now in this twisty maze?" kinds of questions, we need to be willing to pick up the slack here. The devel and test crew don't need to waste their time suggesting single user mode. > Believe it or not, like it or not, pointing members asking about F17 toward > the test list *is* helping them because it's telling them where they can get > their questions answered.

I don't know if it's practical, but you might be able to print out a
cheat-sheet showing what character maps to what key, possibly from a
different computer. If so, you could use that to get the password in
correctly that one time.

Yeah, if I have another Fedora system handy, I can often nose around
in the X11 setings and other places and get the keyboard definitions
up on a screen.
But, since I know which keys tend to move, it's usually just much
faster to type the password in the wrong place. (I didn't say that
very clearly the first time, did I?)
In other words, where the system prompts for the user name/id, type
the password, instead, and see what actually gets typed in.
(Resisting the habit of hitting the enter key will save some time. If
you're doing this sort of thing for remote login, you never want to
hit enter when you've done this, of course.)
(Especially, if you are doing this kind of thing on a web page
password form, don't hit enter with the password in the user field. If
you do, you want to be able to clear the browser's memory of what you
typed in, or your password becomes visible to a lot of people.)
Or, when someone might be watching, just type the parts that might
have moved. (That would usually be just certain punctuation keys.) Or
type a few characters at a time. You usually don't have to type the
whole password to figure out which keys got moved, or even just see
that keys got moved, so you know you want to fix the password.
If you're not familiar with which keys moved, then, yeah, you may want
to have another system handy for checking what keys are supposed to be
where in the default keyboard map. The first few times take a bit of
effort, which is why it's often quicker to just boot single and fix
the password.

I had disabled it while attempting to troubleshoot something else. I probably installed and/or updated some packages before I remembered to turn it back on. So I changed to "permissive" and did the autorelabel thing again. This time I was able to zero in on some messages that were likely pertinent; and the SELinux troubleshooter suggested: setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1 I'll continue to run "permissive" for a little while longer and see if that fixes it. -- Braden McDaniel -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
