Re: Bootable distro on Flash - Howto?

Bill Davidsen — 2013-05-21T15:56:40

Useful to know. I went to unetbootin because I didn't have luck with Live-CD, 
but that was long enough ago that major improvements to either are likely.

Re: Device Drivers in Fedora 18

Bill Davidsen — 2013-05-21T15:50:38

Good that it works for you. I have installed on several laptops which need 
"nomodeset" to come up, and don't really work in a stable manner with the 
nouveau driver. Perhaps the desktop support is better, using different chipsets. 
Use what works, clearly.

You can use the spec I have here:

Just add the sources and you should be good to build.  -A

Handbrake for f18 x86_64?

Neal Becker — 2013-05-21T11:46:50

Any place to find an rpm (or srpm) for recent Handbrake (0.9.9)?

I briefly tried building from source, but didn't get very far (and no, it 
doesn't look like a problem with my not installing the deps).

Please do not cross post to multiple mailing lists... Is this a CentOS,
Fedora or Ubuntu platform you are seeing this on? They all have different

It should not be much different from storing LUKS-key-files on a smartcard.

Wrong.  You use ^Alt-FN, not just ^FN.

ICMPv6 Neighbour Solication request is not answered by linux whenIPv6 address is assigned via Netlink code.

Norah Jones — 2013-05-21T06:10:11

Hi, 

I have a process which is running as a linux service and assigns IP addresses using netlink to configued interface in linux.
For IPv4 addresses i do not see any issue with this assignment.

When i try to assign an IPv6 address, the address gets assigned successfully to the interface, but the Neighbour Solication request received for that address is not responded with and hence ping6 from a different machine doesn't work.

When i take the same netlink code and run it in a sample program the address gets assigned and the Neighbour solicitation is responded with a advertisement and hence ping6 works.

IP assigned by the program : 7000::15/32
IP on client machine from where ping6 is done : 7000::17/32.

Bot machines are connected to same Layer-2 switch.

I have flushed the ip6tables on both the machines just to rule out any firewall issues.

Thanks,
Norah Jones

CTRL+F2
Login as root
passwd user 'your_new_pass'
type it again 'your_new_pass'

Once it says password successfully changed type in exit then CTRL+F1
to go back to the GUI and login as usual

The DM (display manager) has nothing to do with your password as user

Password problem

Frank McCormick — 2013-05-21T01:02:43

Just installed Fedora 19 ( I know questions are supposed to go to that 
list, but this is more of a
general thing).

I was having a lot of problems with the GDM login manager so I disabled 
it and installed
lightdm.

Everything was working fine UNTIL I tried to change my password to 
something I could
remember - the steup forces you to pick one which can't be easily broken.

Now the login manager tells me both the old and new passwords are wrong. 
So basically I can't get into
the system. I tried the recovery kernel but it simply takes me to the 
login manager, unlike the recovery options
on my Fedora 17 and 18 systems.

Can someone offer a suggestion ( I'm writing this in my Debian system)

Thanks

Re: Ok, so where do mysql bugs go, these days?

Sam Varshavchik — 2013-05-20T23:34:04


Can you go to mysql.com, type "mysql bugreport" in the search box on the  
top, and see what you find.

I wouldn't expect a need to use Google to figure out where to report mysql  
bugs, when mysql's home page, presumably, exists, and that's where one would  
logically expect to look, first. Maybe if I didn't know what mysql's  
homepage was, perhaps, then I can understand using Google. But not when,  
allegedly, mysql has a home page that I can look at.

By comparison, if I go to www.postgresql.org, I immediately see a fscking  
"Report a Bug" link right on the home page. Was that too hard?

The closest thing on www.mysql.com is the "Contact Us" link. That leads to  
Oracle's sales department. An even tinier link, at the bottom, called  
"Support" leads to a gateway for paid Oracle technical support.

And even if one would like to make an argument that using Google would not  
be unreasonable here, it's still reasonable to expect that the best place to  
find the relevant link would be the home page, but
