Out of action for a while & mono heads up

Hi, Due to a drive falling over dead (it held my /home directory) and then the computer's RAID software deciding it knew how to fix the problem by duplicating the /dev/sda drive (where my boot loader and lvm partitions sit) instead of it asking, I've just about managed to get my computer up and ru

Problems with the current rawhide

Hi, Following the disaster with my hard drive, the only way to fix was a complete re-install. I did a clean F13 install, did the updates and then moved to rawhide - something I normally do. I've hit several problems though 1. I can't mount anything via the desktop. The DVD/RW is not showing when

F14TC2 x86_64 problem

Hi, Is there a way around this problem? I'm trying to install from DVD the TC2 image on the laptop (HP DV6 2113SA). When I click to trash the HD, the installer dies on me saying there is an error and asking me if I want to debug. I get the same problem if I try to do a custom set up. Trying the o

haldaemon seems dead...

Hi, I've installed F13 on my home box, updated and then moved it to rawhide. Everything seems more or less happy now, but it looks like haldaemon is dead. I can't burn to DVD, USB pens won't mount, the printer is unrecognised and the SCSI scanner has gone. All worked fine under F13. Any clues on

dbus not responding to a large number of things

Hi, It looks like dbus is failing to respond on my box correctly. For example, if I try to run system-config-services as a normal user, I get the following [p...@pb3 ~]$ system-config-services ** (system-config-services:11277): WARNING **: AT-SPI: Accessibility bus not found - Using session bus.

Evolution - bits missing?

Hi, Post the disaster on my hard drive, I've restarted evolution, but have found that the menu bar (File, Edit, etc) at the top has vanished. Is this a known problem and if it isn't, is there a way to get it back there? TTFN Paul -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin

xorg-x11 gone squiffy in rawhide?

Hi, Just done quite a big update to my rawhide box, performed a reboot and have been left without an x server. I thought it was the xserver, so downgraded to 1.10.99.1-2.20110418.fc16, but still the same problem. I'm getting a segfault at adress 0xb2b4c using the neuveau driver Help! I'm reduced

OpenBUGS program has a pre-compiled )S library from MS Windows. Any possibility to package it?

I decided to try to help the cause of Bayesian statistics and the open source effort of the OpenBUGS group (http://www.openbugs.info/w/) by making some packages. In case you are not a statistically-inclined person, it is worth knowing that Bayesian Updating with Gibbs Sampling (BUGS) has caused so

Gnome borked?

Hi, After doing a rather large update to my rawhide box, it seems that it no longer wants to play fair with Gnome giving a very unfriendly "Something has gone wrong which I can't recover from. You should logout and try again" message. Other than some desklet errors, nothing seems to be wrong (obvi

Unable to boot the 3.1.0 spins of the kernel

Hi, Not sure what I've missed here, but I'm unable to load my machine using any of the 3.1.0 flavours of the kernel. I can get (I think) 3.0.0-9 to boot no problems. When I try the 3.1.0 spins, I get a kernel panic soon after booting kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on un

A small request

Hi, Is it possible to configure koji to do a package rebuild when key components are submitted? For example, xorg-x11 is currently messed up for a number of subpackages (as is libreoffice - poppler seems broken again). What would be great would be if when xorg-x11 is rebuild, all of the xorg-x11

Safest way to go from x86 to x86_64

gtkhtml-sharp (gnome-desktop-sharp)

Hi, Currently, this is disabled in rawhide as it is linking to the gtkhtml3 API. Does anyone know if this ban has been lifted yet or is the mono stack going to be hobbled because of it for a while longer? (no gnome-desktop-sharp == no mono-tools == no monodevelop and so on...) TTFN Paul -- dev
