what card do u have?
workaround*
i need to bolt, I have a game in about an hour
elZip, 9600
but doesnt matter
it applies to any ATI card not covered by FOSS drivers
you can downgrade xorg and install fglrx
but it involves using xorg-x11-server-Xorg from FC6
jimblah, too much work
and then preventing yum from upgrading it
exactly
Yeah I am installing FC7 today
Thats why i'm stuck with xp on my laptop for now
lol
thanks for that i'll try that
"stuck"
yea, that's a great "solution"
what a joke
but 9600 is covered by FOSS drivers, r300 already works
pretty good on FC6, and it ought to have improved in the
meantime.
I'm getting ready to upgrade one machine to f7
I was stuck on xp for 5 days up to today.
jimblah, is that XP home or pro?
pro
then you can use it as a seamless virtualization guest
stop being evil!
hold on my girlfriend is bitching at me
so you can run all your Windows apps on Fedora that dont run
in Wine
in a seamless manner
when he starts calling himself GoodBob, that's when you'll
really have to be scared/
*scared.
lucky for me i don't have any "windows apps"
My cable was out since last thursday so all I had was an xp box
with a dialup modem.

Steam offers Free games for Ati owners :-(
and if I don't want to?
hmm... hp-toolbox is already included
that is what i thought
why no desktop item?
Now were fighting
lol
whats hp-toolbox?
a GUI manager for HP printers
as I have an HP DV2000 laptop
O
lol
nm then
its useful for seeing how much ink is left and seting up
other things
when did they take the home dir icon off the desktop?
my black ink is getting low... damnit
that's pretty easy to fix
lol still a secure
linux web hosting learner
I know enough to get me by and setup basic servers
thats about it
you can set up a server but you can't
put a shortcut on your desktop?
lol
I don't even go that far. I use linux for my
desktop.
I know I can make a shortcut I was asking when they removed
it
anybody got a Oki c3100 printer up and running?
I dont use GUI that offten
CLI4Lyfe
just create a app launcher then have the command be "nautilus
~"
hehe "CLI4Lyfe"
I'm bi. I like gui and cli.
got to
any clue how i'ed manually install a firefox plugin because
mine doesn't just opens the extensions window then does nothing
when i open a xpi file
lol
some extensions require javascript host to
install for setup purposes IIRC
so has anyone ran into the problem of thier sound just
stopping?
frankly, no.
yea well i looked at the files in fileroller and it looks like a
normal package of js's
my sound was working about 5 hours ago then I did a reboot
into vista and back to F7 and no more sound
i'm not sure it's possible to install manually without poking
around in the .XPI and working out what's supposed to
happen
what sound card/solution?
the MCP51 High Def card
nVidia
damn because i'm not getting any help in #firefox as to what
could be causing my problem
solution as in what X I use?
you've tried the basics?
such as?
no, as in what do you use for sound - add-in pci card, or
onboard.
running firefox from a CLI and checking for output when you try
to install
onboard
it's a laptop
those are always fun.
renaming .mozilla and seeing whether the install works with a
default config
I was impressed when I installed F7 and everything worked
then my sound died lol
try toggling the mutes in your mixer?
did
tried rebooting
usually it's just muting of the sound volume
tried re detecting it as well
ok i managed to install it when i ran it as root
it's usually not a good idea to run web browsers as root
well duh
i was just testing
??
but it made me realize that my user's extentions list shows
nothing not even dcom inspecter or language packs
hmm ya still nothing even after I toggle the mutes
ok well I will hop back on when I get home time to clock out
from work
wolsni_, should i try removing extentions.cache
i'm not really sure, i don't muck around with firefox config a
lot
does nothing
presumably a file with "cache" in the name doesn't have much
to do with the configuration though
yea its not even listing anything tho so i thought it might
just need a refesh of the list
i would hope that the extension list itself didn't require a
cache
i asked what could be the problem in #firefox about an hour
ago and not a single msg in that channel since then
even
well, if you can get an answer in there you'd probably get
help sooner
i'm thinkin i should backup my bookmarks and just
reinstalled
you also might want to head over to mozilla's IRC server, I
think they have one separate from freenode
i'll check
so they do
huh didn't know that one
for those of you interested in storage..........

reinstalling probably won't affect your problem as your
settings are stored in your homedir
i'll try renaming the users settings as you suggested earlier
lol
well that worked now to transfer the bookmarks over
all is good now

for what?
i saw a missing translation on
gnome-accesibility-keyboard.desktop file.... how can i contribute
with fedora fixing that? where must i submit my patch?
Could anyone aid me with nVidia Dual Monitors?
with setting up*
You get the driver installed?
Khaytsus, Yes, and I have beryl running
Full 3d Acceleration.
jaclinuxhelp, try contacting the translation team for your
locale.
Okay, then let me paste a snippet which might help.. I have two
same-size monitors.. The second one is disabled when GL (games)
come in. Beryl is unaffected.
and where can i do that shinji-kun ?
I have a 17" and 19" T_T
both CRT's =/
jaclinuxhelp, search http://fedoraproject.org/
shinji-kun: i found #fedora-i18n channel, but nobody
responds
I have a 17 and 18 LCD, 1280x1024.. One is slightly behind the
other so they look the same
and i found http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/I18N/Join
also...
Try a mailing list. Those have much more activity.
Khaytsus, Can you run windowed mode games fine?
I was on Ubuntu (with twinview) and my WoW would only detect
widescreen resolutions.
GL only sees 1280x1024 with that config.. The one line is the
MetaModes. If you don't want that, comment it out.
any command to show each proccess and how much memory it's
using?
But I'll tell ya, FPS's suck on two monitors
o-o
null7238, I think it is top
I already get 10fps in WoW
nVidia GF 7600 GS
htop is better
k
Khaytsus, Anyway to increase?
thanks
openGL speed fixes? =D
Um, make sure you're really GL.. glxinfo | head
Otherwise, reduce resolution I guess... If you reduce it to one
monitor, that'll definately help
Khaytsus, Last time I did that, X crashed
um, that's not good
I suspect you're not hardware GL, not set up properly
me as well
trying again +D
glxgears crash too?
zomg, no crash
You should get at least 2500fps.... That card should get more
like 3500 I bet
Yes
Ah, hmm
gears run fine
well
some lag
Gears stutter a bit
I'm at 1600x1200
1 monitor
4377 frames in 5.0 seconds = 875.387 FPS
ewww
4377 frames in 5.0 seconds = 875.387 FPS
err
8994 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1793.163 FPS
P4 3.0Ghz
2gb ram
it's not necessary to use your 'Enter' key so often you
know...
Let it run for a minute and let it run for a bit
You might switch to a non-Beryl WM for a minute to see too
Beryl cuts about 800-1000 off glxgears for me
ah k
Disabled beryl when running games?
much better
=D
Actually, I do.. It gives me about 25% more fps
I have a command in my Unreal Tournament startup that doe sit fo
rme, that's about the only game I play
please sirs and madams am i looking in the right dir for 64bit
FC7? ... http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/releases/7/Fedora/x86_64/iso/
38688 frames in 5.0 seconds = 7736.573 FPS
=D
meh
Yeah.. Beryl is pretty but.... Hey, do you have the
transparent cube options turned on? Those KILL my system if they're
on.
Also, does anyone here have a 5.1 or greater sound setup?
Khaytsus, No I don't
I barely use the cube T_T
Desktop, Desktop Cube, Transparency Tab, and "Opacity when
not moving". If that's not 100, my system crawls.
But you probably don't have it on
I need to record audio from line-in. What application do you
recommend?
I've tried Audacity in the past, but maybe there is something
better.
Khaytsus, What sound setup do you have?
Under sound test I see 4 versions of my sound card.
I have a 5.1 card but just 2.1
I'm having trouble with getting full 7.1 working.
The speakers are 5.1 but damned if I can get the rear to work
on ANYTHING
fsck, still here?
2/4 items under sound test work.
top one enables front speakers
2nd one for the rest.
I can't seem to get both at the same time. =/
Hmmmm, this is odd.. My Intel 955 laptop, turning down
desktop cube transparency when not movingt is fine!
My workstation the cpu goes up to about 15-25% all the time
Ahadiel, is that for a HD TV?
Xaero_Vincent, What do you mean?
Creative Sound blaster audigy SE
7.1 32bit
oh
And I have 7.1 creative speakers with EAX
Khaytsus, Is there anyway to merge the two?
I have a pentium D is there any reason I would choose i386
over x86_64?
moin
Ahadiel, hmm.. do you get 7.1 on Windows?
could it be an ALSA thing?
yes I get it fine on windows.
Then again I'm using creative's drivers
this is interesting
http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php/SurroundSound
Reading.
Ahadiel, you might ask in #alsa
if there is anything like sorround7.1
kk
thanks =D
hey guys
can you help me with vsftpd?
don't know what that is
srry
ask Southern_Gentlem
Fedora 7, Gnome UI, can't select or map to NFS servers
through the GUI, am I missing something? Some step I'm
missing?
Any reason you'd pick x64 over i386?

hi all
how can I check total size one directory with sub-directories
?
man du
du -hs
let me try
familiar with vsftpd?
mrdigital-work: ask you question to the channel as a whole.
Don't ask to ask. Just give specific questions
ok
i have a Dir called /backupos
err /backups
i need a user called acronis to access /backups
with 777
Why is the version 100 nvidia driver freezing my comp??
it keeps freezing it
Ask nVidia, we don't have the source, sorry.
Yum by default resolves dependences, right?
well anyone having the proble?
MrWGW-: yes
*problem
mrdigital-work: you want to read man vsftpd.conf
i did
how do I get a list of installed packages?
MrWGW-: yum list installed
MrWGW-: rpm --query --all, or rpm -qa for short
there is also a list created daily by a cron job in
/var/log/rpmpkgs
Foolish, thanks about du command
mrdigital-work: Seems you won't get much help here at the
moment, try fedoraforum.org
Fedora 7, Gnome UI, can't select or map to NFS servers through
the GUI, am I missing something? Some step I'm missing?
hello. I'm having difficulty getting revisor to update the
"destination directory" in the dialog box even thought I've
specified it in the revisor.conf file. ideas?
should give you something
mrdigital-work, need any help ?
Hi. Is anyone out there who can help me with mounting
removable media? HAL says I am not allowed to do it. I've never had
a problem like this before.
there's no "address bar" in the file browser. I also have KDE
and XFCE installed i f you think either one of thse are
better
press ctrl-l to enter an address
that's ctrl-L
you can change to browser mode
does rm -r remove all subdirectories of a directory?
yes.
but not parent directories?
No.
that shouldn't happen, but to work around it get the drive
letter and number from the dmesg output, become root and mount
it.The end command should me something like mount /dev/sda1
/mnt/tmp
Thanks, foolish. I know I can still mount stuff as root, but
it's frustrating.
Y'know?
see bugzilla.redhat.com, I think it's been reported
I'll check it out, foolish.
then there's something really wrong with this setup. CTRL-
ONE? (numeric 1) or capital I (eye)?
can anyone think of a broadband usage meter?
ctrl-L as in the letter L, short for Location
how about your system monitor tool?
if you just want to see the total bandwidt usage, use
bwm-ng
i'm on a 50gig a month usage plan, so i would prefer a meter
that totals the monthly,weekly.daily usage
hehe thanks. nfs:/server nfs://server
server and the three there w/ the path specified all return errors
(not valid)
Is this what you were referring to, foolish? Will turning off
SELinux help? https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=220115
the pkgs seems to be installed (nfs was selected in the
add/remove progs)
hello everyone, what is the command to show the process which
is using my soundcard?
not sure, it's something you might want to try
enter the ip, not just "server".
i have a inhose dns server working, but i'll try the static ip hosting
too
hello everyone, what is the command to show the process which is
using my soundcard?
no go
once is enough
make sure gnome-vfs2 is installed
and make sure you can ping the server and so forth
is there an fedora offtopic channel?
Foolish, sorry
ping works, gnome-vfs2 installed. It offers me tftp and smb
only in the "network" window
i dont get it why is it rejecting my login
fuser can show which process is using a file, and the
soundcard is supposed to be /dev/dsp
so fuser /dev/dsp might work
see iptraf
Foolish, thanks!
thanks
I just don't know then, sorry
no prob, thx for the help. I'm experienced in *BSD, but Linux
hasn't impressed me (yet) -- F7 may be worthwhile to work with
though
hey why am i getting 500 oops cannot change dir /backups
i want to help/fix some things on F7 packages... i'm just
signed for a Fedora Contributor account on fedoraproject.org...
now... what must i do to send my "patch" to fedora ?
to fix issues with existing packages, first report them via
bugzilla
I sent stuff to bugzilla in the past. dunno if it still works
the same way these days
the file sharing preferences dialogue box in GNOME for the
"public" folder
Hi, foolish. Tried turning off SELinux, but the problem is with
HAL. It still won't work. Mounting as root won't cut it, since I'm
trying to restore my user data. :-/
is that FTP or SMB?
ftp
bugzilla.redhat.com, package maintainers welcome patches,
make sure you include reasoning for the patches.
Once you've established a relationship of sorts with the current
package maintainers, offer to co-maintain the package in
question.
How do I put a process in the background and disasciate it from
the termnial?
-nohup?
each time I try to connect to that folder from Windows it
reports that the connection is reset...thoughts?
PwrSurge, Are any of the rpc services started? I would assume
we'd need one to be able to browse NFS resources in the Network
browser.
screen might be the better solution. but yeah, nohup foo
&
jaclinuxhelp, depending on what you want to patch..... working
directly with the upstream project maintainers may be more
fruitfull
i'll check. this is a clean install (as of yesterday!)
PwrSurge, Did you make any customisations during the
install?
would the firewall being on make a diff either?
Thanks....it is for starting up the folding@home smp
client.
PwrSurge, Oh yeh and updated yet?
jaclinuxhelp, adding patches at the packaging level...instead
of working with the upstream project..is not necessarily
advisable
only to the software that's installed, not to the
"services"
PwrSurge, I didn't think it would..
all updated as of 15 mins ago
PwrSurge, Ok ..
firewall definitely gets in the way of nfs if that's what you
guys are on about
rpcbind was started.
/usr/share/applications/gnome-accesibility-keyboard.desktop... i
want to add spanish translation to that file... which would be the
faster and correct way to achieve that on fedora ?
Anyone know a FAST way to encode from 720p (x264) to
DVD-compliant MPEG-2?
SELinux?? (I'm foreign on the concept and reasoning behind
SELinux, other than "it's a good thing"(TM)
ffmpeg
fast is what i want
jaclinuxhelp, cant you work work with gnome upstream and get the
translation in?
like 20 minutes fast
jaclinuxhelp, and then offer the patch to fedora after upstream
accepts it?
basically what I'm looking to do is set up a simple and easy
fileserver type of deal
disabling the firewall made no difference weather nfs was
available
there's no way to judge time without knowing your hardware
specs.
hey folks, would anyone be able to give me a hand figure out
this problem?
http://reasonablyinteresting.com/~jokker/kernelerror.jpg
it's from an FC6-FC7 upgrade
please excuse me (i'm argentinian -- spanish parlant). i must
understand what you mean with some terms first... "upsstream" means
"central development repositories", for GNOME in this case
?
I have the latest kernel install via yum
how would i get mplayer to work in firefox?
jaclinuxhelp, yes it is best web hosting if
translations get into the sourcecode that gnome maintains
jaclinuxhelp, so that all linux distributions
can make use of them
if the livna.org repository is enabled: yum install
mplayerplug-in
totem has a firefox plugin. Works with all the bad and ugly
plugins
Foolish, i did that but its not in the plugins dir
rpm -ql mplayerplug-in
i need it for mlb.com
thans DrJef !!! i understand. so first would be better to be
a 'gnome contributor', then a fedora one !
any other IRC networks that might be able to help me with my
nfs problem?
since it's gnome related, try #gnome on GIMPnet
Foolish, its there, but why wont it open on a mplayer
page?
irc.gimpnet.?
Foolish, it wants to open kaffiene or whatever
well didn't you say you have a firewall on? did you try
disabling that? and if it's not working with gnome, which it sounds
like, does it work via the command line?
I told the FW to turn off, looked l ike it was off (by
reloading the config prog), tried nfs, and when I reloaded the fw
prog, the firewall was mysteriously turned back on
no, haven't (yet) tried w/ the command line
so you did a "service iptables stop"? Think I'd try mount at
the command line if gnome stuff isn't working
How do I get my internet connection in Wine?
should just work
it doesn't, my logitech software says it can't detect a
connection
then you're outta luck
perhaps I have some firewall enabled or something?
perhaps. did you change anything so that outbound traffic is
being blocked?
I don't believe so, is there a way I can check?
iirc, for a while logitech software couldn't find a
connection on windows either
It works fine in windows
and why are you trying to install it with wine to begin
with?
disabled iptables, nfs mounts in cmd line
and gnome?
gnome doesn't seem to be offering the nfs ability, at
all
now i have mplayer in the plugins dir for firefox, but when i
go to a site using it, it stops and wont play
nowhere to find it, and all hand-entries are blatenly refused
without attempts
hmm, then what makes you think it should?
I'm trying to install in Wine because I don't want to boot
into windows
I'm a kde guy here, so bear with me
bare with me is it?
ha, you can bear with me too I spose
hahah.. i stoped iptables with "service iptables stop" now it
won't start again
well, that half an answer
honestly, i'm just seeing how F7 stacks up right now, weather
it's gnome, kde, or xfce, I don't care -- i like all desktop
environments
are you attempting to install a device driver?
uhh, just the part where it connects to the web it hangs
I'll just have to boot to windows...bleh
is it possible to compile/install source from a repo using
yum?
elZip, the repos do not contain sources.
oh ok
elZip, Actually the repos do contain sources - source
repositories.
mutk, the intent of that is that you build an rpm and then
install the rpm. He wants to install from source.
then he wants freebsd or gentoo
elZip, you can grab the src rpms with yumdownloader, and
rebuild 'em locally (rpmdevtools)
elZip, And yum-utils has the yumdownloader program.
i pay 17 east asian children to code my os in realtime..
$0.14/hr
ferrum, Yes, correct. However the statement 'the repos do not
contain sources.' is just not true. The answer to elZip 's first q
is 'No yum cannot be used to download and compile hosting from
sources, but yumdownloader can access and retreive the source rpms
that can be used to build rpm packages'
details...
the fact is ferrum wants him dead
fsck, Yeh facts. Factoids. Truth etc..
we all agree
mmm microbrew
elZip, a one-line HOWTO: yum install yum-utils rpmdevtools;
rpmdev-setuptree; yumdownloader --enable fedora-source package; rpm
-ivh package*src.rpm; cd ~/rpmbuild/SPECS; vi package.spec;
rpmbuild -bb package.spec; rpm -ivh ../RPMS/i386/package*rpm
not 'proper' in all ways, but whatever
Is there any way to reconfigure alsa back to default
settings?
I think I messed up something somewhere.
reinstall should do it.
Any command though? =D I spent a while setting my desktop
up
remove the package and reinstall it i mean
not the os
ah k
yum remove
yum install
alsa-utls or alsa-lib?
THat may be problematic. yum remove anything may require deps
removed too.
T_T
Ahadiel, I'd use rpm to remove, and yum to pull it back in
again
mutk, Could you explain how?
I'm not familiar with rpm
Ahadiel, ie rpm -e --nodeps blah
k
Ahadiel, The yum install blah to get it back
Ahadiel, Oh and hide the nodeps option from family and
freinds
K thanks alot
=D
Everything is working again.
is the 3945 chipset from Intel pretty easy to get working?
(looking at a new laptop)
yes stahnma
there's a driver for it included in F7, but it's somewhat
buggy
is it reliable enough for daily usage?
it's not bad as long as the signal's reasonably strong
i think there are instructions for installing the alternative
ipw3945 driver on fedorasolved.org, it's more stable
is the text installer in centos5 the same as in fedora?
it's anaconda, so pretty much
What Linux app can I use to unzip files from the command
line?
Mathman, centos seems... better some how, will have to try
f7s
orange80, unzip
Thanks
orange80, no prob
nice website
sdodson, thanks... needs work
sdodson, wait
sdodson, you can't see my site now, can you?
It's down.
orange80, yah.... switching web host... i hate relying on
hosts
seems busted
sdodson, between hosts.. left one with poor support, this one
has a wierd php
host setup
Yeah, that's the whole reason I'm using Fedora on this x86 box I
have, so I can do j2ee
learning/experiments/play easily.
Is it possible to make grub boot an .iso
orange80, had my time+fun playing with fedora, learning
stuff
orange80, no time for that these days
Not that I'm aware of, what are you trying to do?
orange80, in here killing time while centos installs on my
future backup+file+source+media server
I wish I had more time for it too, but most of my "free" time
goes into Java.
uI wish I had more time for it too, but most of my "free" time
goes into Java./u
I want to run the fedora installer, but I don't have a
CD-R
orange80, java web
host huh, i'm going to touch that this fall
semester
Can I make grub run the install somehow
orange80, trying to avoid it if i can
add a new boot entry in grub.
Yeah, I love it.
zcat, what does it do?
Have you seen Wicket?
To point at what?
use the kernel and initrd.img from /images/pxeboot on the
install media
orange80, i hear its okay, but i'm trying to not do more
lanuages than i need
pembo13_com, splits the menu into 3 panes, and adds
search.
orange80, wicket... no
Give this a read. So far it seems as good as they promised
http://wicket.sourceforge.net/Introduction.html
zcat, think i saw that on kde look, cool
orange80, reading..
orange80, looks like a keeper for future reading
orange80, my next interest is client-server programming
I did a little php, but I didn't like it near as much as Java.
If you like doing OO programming, then Java seems way
better.
orange80, see...
When I boot off the install dvd it asks for me to choose the
install medium, when I choose CD-ROM (no DVD choice) it demands a
fedora install cd (even though i already have my dvd in there), and
when I choose http/ftp it requires some strange parameters. can
anyone help ?
orange80, i don't like to think of web dev as programming, so
i like scripts for it (most of the time)
make sense?
ya I think so
trying now
orange80, that's why i hated using ASP.NET + C#
You'll then need to do a network based install so be sure you
know the address of an ftp server.
ya that's the easy part...
I run a fedora mirror (mirror.web-ster.com)
Well, from what I've heard all that C# stuff is pretty much
just a verbatim copy of Java, so you might not like it.
Just need a way to run the installer
http://www.sdodson.com/blog/archives/27
someone else did a much better write up but I can't find the link
off the top of my head
orange80, i would choose java over c# any day
perfect... thanks
orange80, but i will have my taste of java in a few months
orange80, i think the number of slow running java apps i've seen
has given me a bad impression
Yeah, considering it's the original, and can also run on
pretty much any OS, and is not a stupid M$ product.
orange80, some people seem to swear by C#, i guess it may be
good for application development
here goes nothin
Well, my understanding is mainly that Java is king of
large-scale web apps.
anyone else noticing jpackage mirros not responding?
how do you check to see if a DVD was burned properly using
the SHA1SUM ??
sha1sum the DVD device
also, Fedora install media have a check media feature
is upgrade possible from FC2 to F7?
that's quite the leap
That's not a tested upgrade path.
I imagine you'll have troubles. Backup your data and do a fresh
install is the most likely route to success.
what is the command to sha1sum the dvd drive ??
the drive or the disk in the drive?
orange80, i've heard that also
jason357, ALOT has changed
sha1sum /dev/dvd
or some such
jason357, if you must do it, remove as many packages as
possible
maelstrom, that won't always work because ISOs are multiples
of a 2048 blocksize, so it'll sha1sum the wrong amount of
data
bmaelstrom, that won't always work because ISOs are multiples of a
2048 blocksize, so it'll sha1sum the wrong amount of data/b
I was kinda hoping to use yum
well then how am I supposed to check to see if it burnt
properly without booting into it ?
maelstrom, you can use the isosize util to get the correct size
and pump it through dd
maelstrom, dd if=/dev/dvd bs=2048 count=$(($(isosize /dev/dvd) /
2048)) | sha1sum
where would you guys suggest putting multimedia files to be
shared on a network? /var or /usr/share?
/share
/srv/
DrNick, what would 'srv' stand for?
serve
in /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/pemboshare
is there a fedora offtopic channel?
okay so apparently my disc burned properly, the sha1sums
match
DrNick, good idea
DrNick, thanks
why am i having problems then ? (it keeps telling me I need
to put a fedora CD in the drive)
maelstrom, did you put a fedora cd in the drive?
#fedora-social #fedora-last-resort of course even #fedora veers
off topic when it's slow
after I choose the language and keyboard layout it asks where
I am installing from. I choose CD-ROM device because it is the
closest to DVD,. but it refuses to accept that
Strange... I thought it didn't ask you that by default..
maelstrom, maybe you have one of those pata_XXX bugs?
what does that mean ?
maelstrom, search bugzilla for install problems
wolsni, hi there
wolsni, first time?
first time what?
being close to sea level?
wolsni, yah
not at all
wolsni, cool, was curious
wolsni, still coming to terms with meeting people who've never seen
the sea
it's like a lake. except bigger, noisier, and saltier.
and with more jelly fish
I've been googling crackling sound using SDL mixer and
haven't found much besides the "Turn volume to %100"
solution.
Does anyone here know any work-around?
All, Requesting help... I have downloaded the Fedora 7 DVD
ISO. I can boot at Start-Up but when initializing in the first
stage it seems to try and setup the OHCI (Something Like That)
Controller... At this stage it freezes and i can never seem to move
on from this. Does anybody have any suggestion's? Regards,
DC
is there a LCL for Linux distros?
a what?
mrdigital-work: LCL for Linux distro??
liquid crystal lycanthropy
Laptop Compatiblity List
Lateral collateral ligament
do u have anything plugged into the usb port?
ohci is usb controller i think?
maybe you have a usb keyboard?
is there a simple/single command i can use to see the current
data rate on my NIC?

Hello all!
DrNick, thanks
I've got one of the stupidest questions, but here it goes
I just installed eggdrop via yum, and I can't find the config
file
Forgott3n`: rpm -ql eggdrop
Forgott3n`: "rpm -ql eggdrop" will tell you all files owned by
that package
ah a useful tool
it likely installed a sample in /usr/share/eggdrop/ or
something
ah thanks
one last place I didn't check
hi all, how do I add the livna repository during install of
fedora 7?
the part I'm unsure about is the repository url
checkers, intructions are on the livna website
I can't see them :| I think the site died and old versions
are up
News
* Server back online yepee! This is a pretty old copy of the
livna Main page, but
the repository rpms. Enjoy and stay tuned
zcat, I've done
zcat, I put windows xp x64 on fedora core 6
elZIP Yes I have a USB Keyboard & Mouse?
is that a problem?
SAM_theman, ok
it highlights newly installed app entries. i like.
I have a USB Keyboard & Mouse...is this causing my
loading freeze problem when booting from DVD
salestech, not sure. plug in an old ps2 keyboard and boot
with "nousb" ?
cool
Hi people.. Anyone with 5 min to helpme out with a problem
with postfix as a smtp_sasl_auth client?
zcat, on fc6 I am having some freezening problem with the new
nvidia drivers
what's going to happen to older machines? seems like Fedora
can nolonger serve as a desktop for sub 800Mhz machines
http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=238279&cid=19485675
Fedora is a cutting edge distro
sub 800MHz machines are not cutting edge :P
wolsni, but can any linux work on it... ie. does anyone cater
for it?
wolsni, a fellow linux user back in my homeland had to settle
for win2k + office97 for some school lab machines
wolsni, oo.org simply takes too long
wolsni, and the DEs he tried we too slow
EL4 should still run okay on those.
i would think that debian would be fine with a proper
selection of packages
ivazquez, i'll google that
RHEL/CentOS 4.
there are also distros that are designed around running with
minimal memory footprints such as puppy linux or damn small linux
(DSL)
ivazquez, so i've realised
DSL is best suited for 486s though.
wolsni, i think the killer is a full office sweet that can't
boot up in a sensible amount of time
suite*
well, koffice is a lot quicker to load than oo.o in my
experience
if you don't mind sacrificing compatibility with MS Office you
should check it out
wolsni, koffice has a db app?
it's called kexi
hmm, intersting
hopefully KDE comes to windows... can't expect students to
install linux at their home to do their homework
i haven't used it or any db app though so don't ask me about
features :P
allo
i wish the oo.org guys would slim things down a bit
I have an external HDD formated with NTFS for compatabillity
issues. But Fedora / gnome-volume-manager is trying to protect the
SAM by mounting it with root only permissions. Is there I place
were I can change that defult behavior? I must be a simple
parameter because the log knows that is is being done on behalf of
my user
yo ferrum
hey
epablo, tsk tsk, trying to hack a drive you stole huh
kde4 looks like it will make a windows port of KDE apps a lot
more feasible
wolsni, so i've heard
wolsni, KDE4 promises a windows port, so I've heard
that's not completely accurate
ferrum, not sure if there was a promise
there will be a kdelibs port
but individual apps will be up to the developer
kwin probably won't be ported
aha. What's required for porting to windows?
Nope.. bought a western digital. Made a good backup on windows
and now want to beable to do the same on linux with plug n'
play
epablo, i kid you
hopefully a recompile will do it, but depending on the app
things might be different
I thought so
qt4 has a windows port?
qt has always had a windows port iirc
is there an adobe reader in the repos?
but version 4 has a GPL'd windows port
Just asking I use neither Windows nor QT
yarddog, evince is a pdf reader
there are several PDF readers in the repos, but not from
adobe
plugins for firefox too?
yarddog, no, you just click "Open With Evince"
you sure its in the repos?
(you can set it to do that automatically, if you'd like).
evince? yes.
perhaps you already have it installed?
if you would like to have PDFs open in your browser you can
use konqueror and kpdf
bif you would like to have PDFs open in your browser you can use
konqueror and kpdf/b
ferrum, what is it listed under in the menu?
yarddog, I'm sorry, I never used the menu.
i think it's "Document Viewer"
What would i type if I wanted to see the last 10 lines, for
example, of a log file using cat.
C'ya guys
orange80, tail
don't use cat, use tail
ok
"tail blah" shows the last 10 lines, see man tail for
tweaks
Great, thanks!
Thanks to you too!
Affirmation!
Sorry didn't realize there were two different people. I just
zeroed in on the grey highlighted text.
I'll live
i have burned 4 different F7 install discs and I am having
problems with all of them. I'm about to just burn a kubuntu disc
and use that, at least it will probably work
like, i am running the install off the cd or dvd and then all of
a sudden it tells me I need to install a fedora install cd. well
duh, what the fuck do you think has been in my drive since I booted
the computer ?
maelstrom, Read the onjoin message please..
maelstrom, that doesn't make sense. "install a fedora install
cd" ?
sorry. insert not install
maelstrom, How many disks did you use?
maelstrom, CD install is a few disks. Not one.
mutk, we don't have a multi-cd install... do we?
maelstrom, you're talking about the livecd?
x86_64 dvd, x86_64 livecd, x86_64 minimal boot, i386 livecd.
the livecds just flat out won't boot, I get weird "butter I/O error
on logical block ####" messages, and the minimal boot & full
dvd get stuck when it can't find a place to install
from
maelstrom, I get those errors too. You have to be
patient..
*cracks open a Dos Equis*
maelstrom, You mean buffer IO
heh
hah. yeah buffer
Ok, 'f' and 't' are pretty close on a qwerty keyboard
maelstrom, just disregard those error messages. Booting from a
livecd takes time.
well I should have said that after those buffer i/o errors I
get "WARNING: cannot find root file system" and I get stuck in a
bash prompt
Aha.
maelstrom, just for future reference, we have a Test 3 phase
where community members should test out the release and ensure that
it boots. For the present, I (obviously) have no idea what's
causing your issues.
Is your processor also 32-bit capable? Try installing that?
do u have multiple cdrom drive on ur pc?
i did try the i386 livecd without luck
KageSenshi, yes
ferrum, I must have been asleep when that happened Yeh no
multiCD installs these days. That is sort of good and bad I
guess.
maelstrom, Some detail on the hardware would be ncie too.
what sort of machine is it?
i smell a bug here ... bootup confused on multi-cd drive
computers ... it happened to me before ... but it has been a while
since i got that error ..
i put it together myself, asus a8n5x mobo, athlon 64 3200

anyone how to change the X resolution after a game screws it
up? (xrandr complains that the RandR extension is missing (because
on of my displays is a fixed rotation))
hum, i'd be more than happy to rip out the 2nd cd drive while
i install if that would make it work
:O i forgot to read my comics today

tw2113, zcat It is like xkcd is channelling _my thoughts_. I
really do think like that and in fact did think exactly that phrase

something is messed up with my machine, i've had to rebuild
the rpmdb 3 times this week and it's only tuesday
sdodson, kde here. had used krandrtray in the past, but it
expects the xrandr extension too. the game that screwed up my res
didn't need that extension though.
sdodson, That could be the rpmdb daily bork cron job
sdodson, I wonder if yum-updatesd has anything to do with
it?
--------watching Elephants Dream making-of
mutk, don't think so. i filed a bug about it thinking the same,
but the problem happened again after i disabled it.
about 3 times i've had to rm /var/lib/rpm/__db.00* to get things
working again

what i'm getting but i don't think it's yum related as it clears up
after an rpmdb rebuild
sdodson, looks like gnome-display-properties depends on the
xrandr extension too.
blobAndConquer - bad! bad game! screw my resolution
heh, i saw that mentioned somewhere
we must read the same lists
last choice .. /usr/sbin/gdm-restart ~
quick reminder, how do I label a directory as public_content_t
?
chcon
sdodson, well yes
oh you wanted more detail i guess
sdodson, was refering to the exact syntax
reading the man in the mean time
chcon -t public_content_t i guess
I think so, that man page is sparse to say the least
sdodson, quite
i asked google
sdodson, i'm using /srv/pub for for anon ftp/http
sdodson, was wondering what's the most selinux way of setting
that dir to public_content_t
is chcon seems temporary
any ma.gnolia users here?
if i ever relabel, i suspect it will remove it
yeah, it's tuesday
false
i consider it the day before until i wake up again
so even if it's like 3am, it's still the previous day in my
head
5am is the cutoff

Has anyone here managed to get Doom 3 working on Fedora
properly?
If so, do you have a widescreen?
I'm having re-sizing issues.
nope, can't say i play Doom
Ah well, it was worth asking I suppose.
okay, i must be going insane. which package do i need to get my
hands on cc1plus ?
i was under the impression it was part of the c preprocessor
but i have that
"yum provides '*cc1plus'"
aha
heh. damned file list is probably bigger than the package i need.
thanks tho
okay, maybe it's not
I have a question about upgrading to Fedora 7 from Fedora Core
6. Am I even in the correct channel to ask that?
yes you're correctly located
I have a questyion.. is there a CD install set coming
soon?
dunno, i'm n00bish still
god.. I can't type anymore..
I've been running FC6 for a few months and really like it.. but
I'm poor, I can't afford a DVD drive :/
I want to upgrade to Fedora 7 to get all the new enhancements
and such.
somehow i think there may be a way to run the ISO from your
computer without burning it
don't quote me though
the LiveCD's are also installers
but don't they over write everything o that drive?
that you install to*
back up your home folder then
yes, they basically just copy the cd to your hard drive
I can't fit my home folder on my other drives o_o;;
burn to CD in chunks?
you could do an update using yum
there are guides for that around
it's not recommended though
requires bandwidth, but it'll probably save you bandwidth
anyway, since it shouldn't download the entire distro
ah
bummer
o.o
if it didn't show my name change -Soviet_Bob
it did
the bob gave you away
k.
What ever
Lots of bob's
I just got Fedora Core 6 to run Sun Java. I guess everything
I got installed will vanish with a Fedora 7 upgrade. What is the
end of life for Fedora Core 6?
about the time F8 comes out
yeah
this fall
I still havn't gotten sun java to work @.x
what is end of life
u can use fc6 forever
end of support?
there is no end of life, its up to u
support for 6 ends with 8
lol
such as if you really wanted to, you could still use MS
windows 3.11, but they don't support it anymore.
yay figured it out
thats a bad analogy
same concept. It is end of support, simple as that.
Yes, getting Sun Java to run under Fedora Core 6 was a bit
tricky because of all the misinformation on the web.
say wha? the interweb lied to you?
hahaha
Has anyone here gotten Sun Java to run under Fedora 7?
sure
i have 1.5.0_12 from sun using the JPackage srpm
I have 1.6.0u1 right now.
any of you on the fedoraforum as well? and if so, ID?
I'm running that same 1.5 Sun Java version here. You answered
my question. I appreciate it. But that leads to another
question.
My real question was if anyone got Chikka (not the java version)
to run on Fedora Core 6 or Fedora 7.
You're going to make us Google it, aren't you...
what "cool" things can one do with logwatch?
ivazquez, http://www.chikka.com/
Nobody that I am aware of has gotten Chikka to work correctly
with Fedora Core 6.
It's a Windows app. You want #wine.
I get much misinformation from Google. Not a trusted place. I
thought this would be a better place for real info.
New versions of WINE won't run my favorite win app.
Who let Bob_Dole in here?
Hi guys. I'm considering going from Ubuntu to Fedora. Do you
know of a good comparison of the two distros (or could you sum up
in one sentecnce why I should change ?
Bob Dole let Bob Dole in here.
linux is linux...it's just a matter of flavor
Because you want to. No other reason.
sort of like coke and diet coke and pepsi
Fedora has this really neat "DNA theme."
ivazquez, so the requirements are fulfilled already.
sweet
FC6 had the DNA, F7 has hot air balloons *thumbs up*
You will see it expressed in the wallpaper, for example.
not the most recent version
I like Fedora more than ubuntu, which is what I used for about a
year.
Oh, sorry. Not there yet.
Well, if the DNA is gone, I'm out of here. Hot air ballons sound
ghey.
hehe
I get the point :-)
man, it's too bad you can't change the wallpaper in
linux
What?
they should add some configurability
i heard they're taking F8 to space
I change mine a lot
is there a "simple" way to sync user passwords between
machines?
Not really.
or at least considering it
Fedora assumes a bit of savvy, Ubuntu does not.
also considered underwater
ivazquez, cool
I change my desktop monthly.
debian assumes a lot of savvy
background*
I just use LDAP and forget about it.
dole changes wallpaper like he changes underwear?
:P
brown in back...
Hmm, I can't seem to join #wine. I guess it isn't a channel
on freenode
hello guys!
it's winehq for whatever reason
i figure...if i want to run a Windows program, i'll log into
windows
oh that makes sense more or less :o
lol
i glad someone got that.. pretty sly eh?
Don't forget yellow in front.
yep
really bad saying
but funny
wow, real classy, guys
That's another question. Have you been able to run VMware and
toggle between Windows and Linux, or maybe get Zen to do the
same?
it's only yellow if you don't drink enough liquids
voline, sorry
you're dehydrated
Yeah, it's hard to say if I'll ever be old enough to think
this juvenile humor isn't funny.
I mean, have you been able to get Fedora 7 to toggle between
Windows XP and linux using any software out there at
all?
i think you mean Xen
Yes, Xen. I'm smiling.
there is kqem i think too
qemu ?
kqemu
xen hypervisor woked well for me on a fc6
it likes to have a fair amount of ram
i installed xorg 1.3.0.0-8.fc7 cause updates told me to,
Okay. I will go ahead and put Fedora 7 on this box. I don't
have a fair amount of ram. Maybe putting some bicycle peddles on
this old comp might help.
and it looks like its messed with my nvidia drivers - desktop
effects are borked now and trying to enable beryl results in x
crashing
can i revert to an older xorg version?
128mb of ram?
256
i'd not install gnome/kde
I'm running a AMD Ksomething.
gnome is desktop software
amd k6 is the cpu
I had one of those around 1998.
9 years ago
wow
Yes, AMD-K6(tm) 3D processor. I live in the Philippines. We
don't make a lot of pesos here.
pesos == processors
Hello guys
no worries
Understandable.
it should work
I've set up a search engine that looks into fedora sites... Feel
free to help and contribute:

myself
rmelton, lol
youre lolling at his poverty?
no on pesos
hey! I'm a pesos user!
i thought pesos meant processor

hello... how can I vnc into a listening viewer? I want the
listening viewer to connect to my server
misc--, no, it has to connect to you
yeah I want the listener to vnc into me... so, server says "oi,
connect to me..." and then on the viewer you just click accept
which goes in
kinda like apache doesn't connect to firefox right?
Okay, I see.
does anyone else use fc7 and nvidia drivers and have issues with
updated xorg?
opensource, I was just seeing if chat worked the way it did
like 1o years ago.
Where is the channel to remember how to use chat? I feel so
stupid.
etc...) when the hard disk is not detected? I heard that the
hard disk must be detected or it won't work. Can't understand why
but can't really find any official info about it
actually, i had the exact opposite. closing xine would ALWAYS
crash my X server using the open source nvidia drivers. when i
switched to proprietary, it stopped doing that.
misc--, at the boot prompt i use linux vnc and it works
well
dunno about the hard drive
never tried it w/o a working drive
I appreciate all of your help. Take care.
rmelton, no worries
freenode.org i think is the website were to learn more
you should try installing linux without a hard drive. it's
very..liberating..
keep going learning is fun
caffine, im using proprietary drivers, and system update
installed xorg1.3.0.0-8.fc7 for me - fc7 ships with 1.3.0.0-7
iirc
evil_steve, usb memory stick
yeah, ok no worries. It's worked on others, just not this one
which it can't detect the hard disk
or into ram?
caffine, so xorg was updated
caffine, and now desktop effects no longer work, and beryl crashes
x when it loads
i've everything updated as of a few days ago, and running the
nvidia drivers from livna.
evil_steve, what about iscsi or some other storage media
?
i couldnt get livna drivers to load.
ah. i'm not using the desktop effects or beryl (don't know
where those are :p )
i wanted to know, cause its the simpliest solution, how do i
revert to xorg1.3.0.0-7 ?
Hehee, you know slackware was my first install and it was with a
56K modem online, like a hundred years ago. I just gforget
stuff.
Another slackware person!
Once you've gotten slakware to install, the rest isn't so
hard.
Like beating Mohammed Ali.
true
fly like a butterfly and sting like a bee!
hrm..anyone else experiencing hard lockups with any vmware
product after the latest round of updates?
can you use yum and specify an exact version? i haven't tried to
downgrade.
caffine, i dont think yum will let you downgrade
how could I browse the bugs listed at redhat's bugzilla?
I'm interested in the fedora ones
without the need of a user account?
google?
You don't need a user account to browse fedora bugs on Red
Hat's Bugzilla.
something like bug-i'm-looking-for
site:bugzilla.redhat.com
Our first linux installs were over modem connections with
floppies. Excruciating, but we got them to work. Took a couple of
beers.
rmelton, I remember those days well. A good dozen floppies or
so installed slackware Linux.
hey guys, I'm having trouble with a script that uploads a .html
file to ftp... I want to set it so it does it every hour
http://slexy.org/paste/3058
is that correct?
how do I browse them then?
Just a sec ... let me get you a good URL, Renich
thanks a lot... I'm adding it to my fedora crawler search ;
http://www.google.com/coop/cse?cx=011057779923588025604%3Aakrqpglozlu
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/
Renich, Click on "Query" on the upper tool-bar of that page to
query the Bugzilla database.
If you remeber those days well, you just might recall the old
Altairs where we had to load in the data and addresses with
switches by hand. I'm just that old.
Giggling.
ok, thanks a lot, Questor... let's see if the custom search
works with it
but did you ever debug with an oscilloscope?
rmelton, although I never had an Altair, I know people who
did have them ... I started with home computers just a couple years
later, with paper-tape and teletype input-output.
and a 15Mhz one at that
Renich, best I can suggest is play with the search on that
page.
ok, thanks a lot!
Renich, welcome. Have fun.
I have a dual-trace older Tektronix scope. Worked as an
electronic repair tech for about 8 years.
My scope is back in the States. I'm here in the
Philippines.
Why were you curious about my scope?
Good morning and welcome to yet another glorius day
people
hello, MrMarkie... but it's noon here.. haha
Renich, damn, these "time zones" is out to get me :P
yeah, well, try living under UTC and... it went ok... for a
while
s/try/tried
ups my correction has a bug
s/s\/try\/tried/s\/try\/tried\//
there, that fixes it
hey quick question
how do I upload a .html (on the command line) via ftp... and
make it so I can make it go as a cron command
Anyone using a HP DV2000 laptop in F7?
I hereby declare war on both time zones and time itself. I
will stand as the sole victor of this battle and I will drag
humanity into a better world :P
Forgott3n`: that wasn't so quick...
I promise to be faster
any idea, thought?
I wasn't curious about the scope, that was just how we used to
fault find on the altiars "tp3 active, load pulse good. tp4 active,
load pulse rounded"
Wait. I notice a definite difference here. Are you required
to be kind? Some linux channels are not.
Forgott3n`: yeah, try: man lftp, man crontab and that'll help
you a lot!
Forgott3n`: here's a tip lftp -c
thanks
Forgott3n`: the rest if up 2 you... oh and by the way, you can
always search for help at:

Yeah people in here seem pretty cool, the few times I've
needed help. (I am not very experienced with Linux.)
Anyone know why my sound would die after a reboot?
depends on who is about at the time. some people like to help
and extract answers like their pulling teeth with a pair of
forceps, others chose a more...direct..path to obtain the
answer.
yeah, It happens when you connect other sound stuff to your
PC/Laptop and Fedora happens to find it... happens to me with a
Firewire 1814
try disconnecting that thingy you connected and rebooting
lol I havent connected anything to my laptop
then, I dunno.. hahaha..
Are you in England?
no, Au
and yes, my grammar and typing sucks sometime
Okay. Thanks. I get your accent now.
anyway, check the obvious things... volume turned off...
speakers turned off... volume at the top right corner of your
screen, systempreferenceshardwaresound and
systempreferencesadministrationsoundcard detection
yup looked at it all
it finds the cardany sound but doesnt play
any sound
is it not muted if you right-click on the top-right
corner?
ya not muted
I use KDE not Gnome
then it's out of my fedorian comprehension... any
updates?
well not since yesterday and the sound was working today
then I did a reboot into vista and back to linux and it went by
by
is anything connected to the laptop? like some headphones or
something?
nope
anyone knows how anaconda performs "grow to allowable maximum
size" during partitioning with parted?
lol when I connect my headt set it works
let me see if I change it what happens
i basically want to create one partition that spans the
entire disk non-interactively
tried "parted /dev/sdb mkpart primary 0 -1" but it complains about
-1 being an invalid option
I sort of am smiling here.
rmelton, eh?
wha!! sorry for that!
is ther a way to uninstall the sound card and have linux
reinstall the driver?
rmelton, any tricks you've got there?
well, yeah... you can rip it off the laptop and then put it
back in... use a nice pointy screwdriver for that
one...
lol
did you mess with your BIOS?
I wasn't paying attention, but I suspect what you want to
do.
nope
I have not touched a thing since it worked
Oh, I give up. I suggest posting at fedoraforum.org, at the
hardware section. Don't forget to give your exact brand, model,
general specs and describe your problem perfectly well
ya
thanks
or maybe you could just email Dr House
I've gone through everything you will have to go through. No
real tricks. Learning curve.
lol
that guy seems to know everything
rmelton, i could probably script it but it wouldn't be
elegant
im tempted to read the anaconda code
i liked The Anaconda Code
it was exciting
??
then just su -c 'yum install anaconda'; cat
/usr/share/anaconda
never mind ._.
Better than the Da vinci code?
personally hated both the book and the movie of that
one.
lol
Was I the onlyone to see "the linux code" at
video.google.com?
Haven't read it, don't seem to be oss... can't find the
source pakages on any repo
da vinci code had too much hype
:P
Checking the linux code now
G'day
one requires to understand various languages
hi there
hello chmac
If I choose to install 'vlc' with yumex, it prompts me to
download just the vlc rpm, but if I use `yum install vlc` it
prompts me to download a bunch of dependencies
Yumex 1.9.8
Anyone got any suggestions?
Renich, I'm Swedish... we understand all languages by birth
:P
I'm stumbed, not even sure where to start, I've already
removed it and installed a new version (released 2 days
ago)
ok I am going to screw around with this thing a little then I
am off to bed. Thanks for the help
really? hahaha... that's cool... I'm having a Swedish girl
stay a few days next friday... she's here, at México, for
social services
chmac install the dependencies?
Now, I've just installed vlc and 3 updates via yumex and it's
included all the dependencies
is it so bad?
stay on the light side of the force... (yum = light
side)
Yeah, I can just use yum instead of yumex, but I'd like to
resolve the yumex issue if possible...
the cd in the cdrom drive is not a fedora cd!!
lol
chmac whats the issue?
Maybe it's a yumex bug if you install only one package, I'll try
a few tests...
yum is reporting dependencies but yumex isnt?
man, you have to remount it
Exactly. Yum installs the deps, but yumex doesn't
Renich, cool... just don't believe everything you have heard
about swedish girls
REMOUNT the optical drive during install ?
well, I haven't hahaha! Besides, she's supposed to be some kind
of composer or something?
Listen you guys, I hear exaclty what you are saying, and
can't type as fast as you. But I've been through all the same
issues.
Almost all.
yeah, if you took it out... you have to insert and remount
it... try hitting ctrl + alt + {f1,f2,f3,f4} and see where you can
find errors and remount it
an someone tell me which is the best processor for core 6
x86_64
Well, then maybe you should believe what you've heard
lol, ok
intel em64T or amd athlon 64? which supports the OS
better?
athlon
no I didn't take it out, mid-install it spits it out saying
"this is not a fedora cd" despite the fact that that very cd is the
whole reason i am booting into the fedora installation
tool
I have a athlon 64 x2 and works wonders!
ok, did you check it when prompted?
yes the sha1sum has been matched
thanks Renich
how is athlon 4000+ for a desktop installation?
sure... I also bought an asus mb with nvidia chipset...
that's part of the drew too
overboard .
s/drew/brew/
i have a athlon 64 2800+......and it works perfectly fine
with core 6.........but then ppl told me that core 2 duo is
good....i couldn't believe it....lol
