[solved] flashing wireless light

2012-01-12 Thread Brian Ericson
On the off-chance this might save someone else some time... If you, like me, hate a flashing wireless light and have been relying on led_mode=1 to silence it, the option changed (for me, at least) with 3.1.7. I'd previously used "options iwlagn led_mode=1" in /etc/modprobe.d/iwlagn.conf. Wit

gnome-terminal "paint" issues?

2011-11-17 Thread Brian Ericson
I'm having "one-off" issues with gnome-terminal on my laptop. At the bottom of the terminal, the results of a command typically (but not always) don't display until I hit "enter" a second time and PgUp/PgDown in man pages or vim oftentimes don't do anything (then, when the key is hit again, th

Just upgraded my desktop to f16. I note that I see no boot loader (just a blinking cursor for a bit), and then it proceeds to boot as though I'm still on f15 (and, in fact, boots into the "2.6" kernel). Checked out /boot/grub2 and the only thing in it is an empty grub.cfg file. This is in con

/etc/bash_completion.d/acroread.sh defines function "_filedir" which is also defined in /etc/bash_completion. I simply renamed the function in acroread.sh and all is good again. On 04/25/2011 12:14 PM, Brian Ericson wrote: > Is it just me or did the upgrade from bash-completion-1

Huh. I had a second machine on 1.2-5 that was working that also broke as soon as I went to 1.3-3 on it... So, now I'm 0-for-2. On 04/25/2011 12:21 PM, Andre Robatino wrote: > Brian Ericson ptc.com> writes: > >> Is it just me or did the upgrade from bash-completion-1.2-5

bash-completion 1.3-3 upgrade...

Is it just me or did the upgrade from bash-completion-1.2-5 to 1.3-3 break ls, rm, mv, etc? Now, when tab-completing a directory, the name of the directory completes with a trailing rather than a / (Doc completes as "Documents " rather than "Documents/"). -- users mailing list users@lists.fed

Just upgraded to f14. The upgrade itself was smooth (thanks!), but Gnome's (UI) performance has completely and utterly tanked. If I open a terminal and a second tab in the terminal, switching between tabs takes upwards of 4 seconds. Same thing with FireFox tabs (Chrome/Chrome tabs are fine, t
